[Galaxy S II General] Itzik68:
Hi, I'm Itzik I'm a newbie and yes, I'm a complete ***ing n00b!

But before each and everyone of you discard my opinion as complete rubbish, please ask yourself this:

Should I not adopt a reasonable and efficient perspective for it came to be from an inferior being? (I believe most of reasonable people will get my point)

Therefore I resume:

There are certain projects here on i9100 section or should I say developers that should combine their efforts into a more efficient working method, there are certain projects that are being developed & published here that in core are the same.

Those MODs & themes are being developed separately by different developers and get published by different names when in fact, they are all fragmented parts of a whole.

So many developers, so much work time and resources are being diverted between so many different projects that eventually each one of them separately when applied, gets the devices to a very similar point, except for one or two (crucial ,I might add) features that are made differently and therefore, only fragmenting more the already messy and confusing situation at hand.

By now I believe most of you know what I'm talking about, and I bet there more people here like me that would like to see those combined projects become a reality.

Now, I want to clarify Myself, that under no circumstances am I saying that the work of those people is not important, or not good enough nor heaven forbid unappreciated, what I'm trying to say, is that if those developers would work together and distribute the work between them, it could help saving them a lot of work and time and make the end results much better.

Lets start with our beloved _JKay_, he practically changed the rules of the game with his MOD, in fact the only thing I find lacking in JKay's work is a more productive and efficient theming capability, witch is exactly what the other developers I'm talking about make complete.

I'm talking about those projects:

[THEME]ICS DOMINATION v4.4*DESIRE(Progress NEW 41%)Odex/Deodex*LPS/3/4/7/8/9/D/F*Live by Vertumus

[MOD] ICS-styled SystemUI for KPA/LP2/LP6/LPB/LPH/LPQ/LP7/LP3/LPS by Sboulema

[MOD][ALL ROMS] ICS Style Reloaded -[ 28/05 Green online! - soon CM9 ]- by Crussader

Now, what we have here are 3 projects that focuses on one objective: a theme that would give SAMSUNG's Stock based ROM's the look and feel of an AOSP based ROM.

What differs between them is that Vertumus's approach was theming the entire ROM while Sboulema's & Crussader's approaches ware a bit less ambitious as they only themed and tweaked the TouchWiz UI overall a bit.

To be precise:

Vertumus re-designed the whole TouchWiz UI framework to match a AOSP based framework on which he dressed his theme.

Sboulema's method was (much like JKay's) to replace the original PNG files on the TouchWiz UI framework to his own files.

Crussader's MOD is based on Vertumus's re-designed UI framework and Sboulema's files + he added lidroid's MOD which is one feature of many in JKay's MOD.

End result is 3 different MODs that basically give the user the same thing +/- a feature or two...

Combining those 3 projects (and others similar) into one project and working with JKay to match his framework to adopt those themes will save JKay the time and hassle of creating themes for his mod + making those 3 themes into 1 will make it easier on the developers that makes them to update the themes to match future firmware updates.

So, what say you? :)
