[Galaxy S II Android Development] GaboWinter:
About the Beta tests and all the issues with the ROM

I wanna be very clear in this, on the last updates the ROM have some bothering and chronic issues like the Google Maps / Google + issues, the duplicate files, the flash camera and the foursquare issue (maybe less, maybe more) and this one are presents for some users, for others don't.

First of all, currently the beta testers are:

Vreestyle

Sun90

Ibsonic

Neerajganga

DeltaSync

Me

We test 1 or 2 days before of the release, i don't have any reason to lie, in my tests i didn't find any issue, and personally i like to do it in the same way that use the phone: Some calls and sms, a lot of tapatalk, two games (MC3 and Need For Speed Hot Pursuit), facebook, twitter, and some chats. Now, for the side of the other beta testers, i send to they one list with suggestions to test, here you have the same:

1.- Test the ROM with and without full-wipe

2.- Test the ROM on different DPI's. In this point i like the idea of sort the dpi's between all the beta testers, in this way each one of us can dedicate the test to only one dpi and make it better.

3.- Test the ROM with different kernels. The same that on DPI step

4.- Test the AOKP funcionality, includes all of the features from the ROM Control

5.- Test the Phone functionality, includes phone calls, sms, mms (!)

6.- Test the Network functionality, includes 3g, H, H+, Wi-Fi (in all channels)

7.- Test the Storage functionality, includes MTP, USB mass storage

8.- Test the Gapps functionality, includes GTalk (!), purchases on the Play Store and G+ login

9.- Test the Theme Chooser

10.- Test all what you want!!! :D

That steps are just a "guide" you are included on the beta-test team because we trust in you even if you don't have many resources to a fully test, for me it's important that you are who test, all of we use the phone in different ways and that diversity it's better

As you can see i try to cover many aspects of the functionality. In the last reports of the beta test v2.5 only some issues was reported (three actually) and the report with the errors was send it to westcrip (all the testers always send a full report including positive and negative things), as many of you know i'm a user of RR since the v8.6 and i'm still planing be here, but i don't know what happen that those issues are still presents, and that's really make mad and frustrate, because as my title says i'm here on XDA to contribute, i'm glad of help but many of this times simply i can't because the usual suggestions apparently don't work and i'm not a developer.

Back to my point...personally and i think that i can write for the other beta testers, we are doing our best (i know that wes too but develop it's a very different issue that beta test and make mods) but it's not enough so, for the next releases i wanna request to wes that provides the link for test at least 4 days before and i wanna invite to everyone who wants, to become a beta tester, this for you can see how the things are doing and hope that you can do a great work as the current testers are doing, for my part i'm continue testing but very less, since apparently i didn't do the things on the right way...

Hope the RR continue for the right way, because this community it's awesome!

Sorry for the long post and thanks for read :)
