[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] CallMeVentus:
They gave an update to supress the insane questions coming from them .

Who knew that such a move would attract ETA askers ?

They knew what are the rules -- one of them involving NOT asking for an ETA .

The fact that it's part of the rules means you should wait really patiently for their ROM to be released .

And also because it's part of the rules , that means we should abide by them .

Also , you guys know what will happen to Maclaw's computer sometimes , so there may be delays and things like that .

And also , they're doing this for free , why do you demand so much ? They're not in the service industry for heaven's sake .

I've said my piece , so if you still have something to say , go ahead .

This was sent from a Galaxy Ace. Problem?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] manpildo:
Yes, I will answer. Why is it okay to give ETAs, then not keep them, not explain and then restrict users from asking "why"? The rule should go both ways. And we aren't demanding anything, all we want is them to respect their word OR at least explain why this or that didn't happen as intended. That is all.

And please don't give me that crap of "do it yourself then", it's a god damn cliche and it won't make you look any smarter than the camera wankers. I can wholeheartedly say that if I did it myself, I wouldn't give half-assed promises and if I did and failed to deliver, I would certainly write a sentence or two about it. It's a case of mutual respect.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] K.A.:
First and foremost...when the dev says he'll release an update..that means he expects that he will complete his work by that time..now, the dev is a human and he is living on Earth not on some alien planet and even he has a bloody life to live..so..delays should be expected..

When you say why give out etas and thn not deliver..the answer is THAT GUY IS A FRIGGIN HUMAN AND UNFORSEEN EVENTS AND DELAYS CAN OCCCUR...give them a break...all the ETA askers do is come here, check the ETA date and then vanish till that time and then they return at that date, if they have an update, they go like "ooo myy godd, maclaw is a developing God, he has given a dead phone ICS" but if they dont its more of " ah maclaw just gives false news so that he can gather enough thanks" and similar B.S.

And yes, they all do it for free...they spend hours and hours doing something for the community's good...FOR FREE...so yes, you are not his boss that whenever he says he'll put something up by a stipulated date, he has to..he is not answerable to any of us..he can hold back and withdraw and share his work as and when he wishes...

They tell me facebook is addictive. I tell them you've not been to XDA yet.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] manpildo:
Again another one of those brilliant "they do it for free" posts, very original. I know that and I've taken it into consideration when making my posts, so you don't need to repeat that over and over again.

And I assure you that I've never asked for ETA and disappeared, just to come back later and moan. No, I've given generally good feedback about this ROM. Maybe someone does, **** em, learn to ignore their posts and report them to the moderator, instead of going all schizo on the inevitable newbie or two. Every subsequent critical post to a spammer can be considered useless, so a user telling off a spammer and contributing in derailing a thread and going off-topic is no better than the one he is "putting in place".

My original point was that in this case the person wasn't asking for ETA, because he was checking whether or not a promise is going to be fulfilled - two different things. He didn't get an answer, none of us got an explanation. It was not the first time. Sure, they can be secretive and ignore us, but it just shows disrespect. If it's the path they want to take, then fine, but don't expect not to receive any critics for it... You reap your own rewards.

Having said that, I am fully grateful for them publishing their work. For that I respect them, but that doesn't mean there are no problems. Without criticism there is no progress, you will stay at the same place. I am just saying what a lot of people here think, but are too afraid to say. My wish is simple: more honest communication. Is it an outrageous request? It would clear a lot of thick air imho.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Modulüs:
:confused::confused::confused:Rules are Rules. And u got to follow them. Even if u don't agree.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] K.A.:
About your more honest communication thing...

See, when Maclaw said he'll release an update by the weekend HE HONESTLY THOUGHT THAT THE WORK WILL BE COMPLETED...but at the end of the day, delays may happen and neither can he help it nor we..he honestly meant it when he said a new release by the weekend but if some unforseen event occurs, everyone is helpless unless one of us is God, which..noone of us is...so yes, he was honest in stating an eta but delays cannot be helped...

They tell me facebook is addictive. I tell them you've not been to XDA yet.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] SMillerNL:
I think your right to say they could've let us know about the delay. However the ETA questions never consider timezones. While multiple people where asking for ETAs I was still enjoying my weekend. Just like maclaw and most of the other Europeans.

And besides that, don't forget that they probably mean no disrespect by not telling us, but there probably just to busy to go on xda. Have you never been in the position that you are very close to solving something in your code and you keep on working on it and before you know it it's 12PM?

Well I have, and I can promise you this: I am really sorry to the people I told there would be an update that day, but in the end the result was better and mostly sooner then when I would've stopped somewhere in between to write an email saying I'd be later with the update.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] manpildo:
I understand, believe me. But there was still no explanation, it wasn't the first time and it's grown a bit frustrating over time. Anyway i see no point in this discussion anymore, i've said what i had to say and i can only hope that people understand where i'm coming from. Just getting my thoughts out :)
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Tusharkamath:
Asking any questions about the rom here by any newbs is a crime. Mods will do not so nice things it seems.I am trying my luck here. Here is a newb question "Is this rom ready for daily usage? Whats not working in this?"
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] LewisGauss:
I'm trying my best to be kind to newbies. :D

Camera is not working. Youtube is not working. Videos playback is not working. It has auto reboot problem in some cases. If you are fine with these problems, it is suitable for your daily usage.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Mardon:
Youtube is working but sometimes a bit laggy caused by missing hw video codec. Video playback works fine with some vids (video codec related). No random reboot since last nightly rom for me.

[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] CallMeVentus:
Video playback is very laggy for me . Maybe because I was playing 640x360 vids

This was sent from a Galaxy Ace. Problem?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] LewisGauss:
Nope...Every video playback is laggy...
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Mardon:
No not really. Try other video codec format and 320x480 resolution vids.

i owned this device...

but noob to flash it..

any full detail tutorial for using this ?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] LewisGauss:
First, you need to have CWM5 installed.

Download and place the ROM at the root of your SD.

Boot your phone into CWM by pressing home and power button simultaneously.

Wipe data, cache and dalvik cache. Install the ROM. Then wipe everything again.

Reboot and enjoy the ICS on your phone. :)

Is it planned to have this become an official CM9 hosted on CM site in the future?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] hmzuleta:
Don't think so, unless Maclaw and the team are hired by the CM guys.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] chrcol:
took words out of my mouth. The kernel thread left a bad taste in my mouth as if non dev's are there to be spat upon.

Everyone is part of this community and we all should be equal in respect to each other.

I can understand the ETA as well because its very frequent for a project to just stop getting updates and go dead. People want to be reassured its still alive.

Viber

Hi there, Just a question...

Does Viber (free calls) work for you? I can't see any contacts and when I'm trying to enter number and call trough Viber, it calls normally using GSM .. is it only my problem? thanks guys ;-)
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] K.A.:
You need the other person to have viber too..and their Viber should be on too..or else it will just use ur normal network calling service..

I could easily play 360p videos on GB

On ICS it has laggy playback :(

Will it be such forever?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Xcutionr:
You can play any video resolution below 720p on ICS. It's just the codec, I think is what causes the lagging to occur.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] 4peterkh4:
Hi guyz

I installed the ROM called CM79 from teamadreno. They claim it's CM7 but it totally appears as CM9. The only reason I believe them is because camera is working. But in "about phone" it says it's CM9 and android 4.0.4

The ROM isnt on xda since it violates some of the rules.

I have three questions.

1- Is it ICS or gingerbread?

2- Did they somehow use/steal something from maclaw's ROM?

3- If it turns out to be ICS, can we use their camera?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] system.img:
It is just a themed Gingerbread CM7. It has no connection to real ICS. They did not steal anything from Maclaw. And we cannot use their camera as it is only gingerbread. There are more than 10 gingerbread roms looking like ICS for the Ace! Don't believe the "About Phone" thing as you can manipulate it easily by editing some values in build.prop.

Look at this:

I can edit any value I want! :D
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] kkubinho:
I know how it works, but Viber doesn't show me any contact even if the other person have Viber and online ..
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] themountig:
To avoid spamming Dev thread (makes a change). For devs working on camera and doing a fantastic job, adding mmparser libs stopped my ace playing mp3's. Better to check if this happens to your ace. If it does I'm totally confident that you can find out why and fix it. Only trying to avoid "can't play mp3" complaints when next nightly is published.

It's the nightly, not the next beta. I'm pretty sure they'll call it beta again when the camera is ready (yes, it isn't ready in this release, just so you don't start asking).

It has updated audio libs, a completely new audio app called Apollo, which absolutely rocks, and it's overall faster, although some say their launcher got slower. It also has new wallpapers, and tiny details of that sort that most will enjoy.

I find performance incredible now.

Additionally (and this one I'm really not so sure) the rear of my phone (where the battery is) gets really hot, seems like phone is always working even when just sleeping.

thanks in advance and great work with Cm9 on Ace.
