First, I just want to point out that's your 2nd question in a row that you felt it necessary to include a preface. :)

To sort of answer that question, I've not seen a cherry-pick resembling anything like that on aokp github, but if you can figure out how to patch settings or romcontrol to include that option, then post the patch, others might like the idea and choose to include it in their builds or possibly even merge it. I have no idea how to go about doing that and it already seems pretty complicated (if you go look at all the comments that were made and the patches involved just getting volume rockers to skip music tracks you'll see what I mean) but I'm sure it's possible....

I write prefaces because I don't want to come off as demanding. I know R4ins, you and all other devs do this in their spare time so I just try to be respectful when asking for something especially when its not an actual issue, but rather a preference

My apologies for being a smartass before (I know I totally was being a smartass, so here is a more serious answer to your question)

http://gerrit.sudoservers.com/#/q/status:open,n,z

Here you can look at the cherry-picks that are posted for aokp. If you want to make a request for a future build, this is the best way to narrow down how possible it will be for r4ins to include. If it doesn't conflict with other stuff (for instance, same example as before, volume rockers skip music plus volume to wake did not work until Monday) then he might decide to try adding it the next time he has spare time.

Essentially that's the list of stuff you can request.

I was coming from SkyICS, and restored just the app first, but it wouldn't open. So then I thought, hmm, maybe I'll restore the data, too. Then when that didn't work, I thought, "I know, I need to fix permissions!" Then I rebooted, and email still won't open. The crazy part is not being able to create a "corporate" account. It just sat on the menu frozen for a few seconds and then the screen could be scrolled, but I got no error message or anything.

When I open Email, it flashes "Email has stopped" in about 100ms and goes back to the home screen. You have to make it go a few times to be able to see it, it FC's that fast. Is there a stock apk I can load that might work? Is anyone here successfully using Exchange and Email?

Restoring from multi updates

R4INS, so you do a full wipe and reinstall all of your apps and go through all that setup every time you post an update? If not, how do you do your app and setting restores? TiBu? If so, damn, that's painstaking, isn't it?

Have you ever done a Base/Update type release structure, like some of the other devs do, to cut down on the wiping? I know it's not good form to recommend someone wipe less, but... :P
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] R4INS:
I do a full wipe, and manually install all my apps and settings yes, i have never once used TiBu and actually refuse to. Painstaking? eh not really. I honestly only use maybe 10 apps at most.

As far as the "base/update" type structure, that wont be happening here. You see most dev's here do stock based roms (based off the official ICS release from samsung), so they actually have a "base" to their rom. Then any tweaks they do can be flashed separately and not interfere (well sometimes they can interfere).

AOKP is built from source, where MANY things change every time. While you may be able to get away with flashing this release on top of the previous ones it may not always work out in your favor. This also can cause bugs which people report to me which may have arose from "dirty flashing" (flashing release on top of release), that were never an issue to begin with.

You have freedom to do as you choose on your device, i never dirty flash personally, and some of my most trusted testers refuse to as well to help me out. But i cannot control how every user decides to install.

I know it can be annoying doing a full wipe, but AOKP jellybean is in its infancy right now and i like to know what issues it DOES have as apposed to what dirty flashing has caused.

I see what your saying R4INS but part of test driven development is to follow RIGHT BICEP + CORRECT principle. This may or may not be known to you depending on whether you've ever professionally developed or not.

I'll just say it in a nutshell to save you the pain (but look up that acronym along with test driven development if you wanna be a serious developer).

You should test boundary conditions (such as dirty flashing). You should write the test before you actually code and only write enough code to pass the test (not sure how much you actually write).

Any way, do your thing, good job regardless.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] R4INS:
You can thank Chris Yeninas and David van Tonder for those :P (although i dont know who they are)

AOKP and cm are actually community based projects where anyone can submit code, features, fixes etc. But the team themselves authorizes the changes to be added officially. MOST features in this build have all been officially merged, the only two that are still not official that are in it are lockscreen shortcuts and daily reboot. I check for new features when i build and add to the "change log", also check for new "non official" features, add them in, and have them tested out before releasing.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] rebel1699:
Dirty flashing is never a good idea when installing a new beta os. That stays much closer to the app side. Most all betas, be it windows or linux based, recommend fresh installs. Like he said, AOKP JB is in its development infancy. Once further matured, i agree with your point. But this particular "os" is not that far along in the process. Crawl, walk, then we'll see about running.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] R4INS:
The code is all AOKP and CM, minus tweaks and adjustments i made for skyrocket. At this point, so early in AOKP nobody wants to go around chasing phantom bugs caused by dirty flashing. By all means let people flash how they want, but when i have one person saying they have X bug and nobody can reproduce it would be nice to know how they flashed.

Really all im saying is at this point, i need a good control group. People with clean setups, that can reproduce issues 90-100% of the time. Not sporadic random dirty bugs.

Actually the offical AOKP team isnt taking ANY bug reports as of right now since things are so early on. I try to hunt down anything i can for you guys as far as bugs.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] kr3w1337:
Test before writing anything. That's the rule. It has nothing to do with what stage the project is in.

In the labs that we work in, we even write tests for getters and setters for even the most menial things. It's good practice and it builds confidence in the code.

What you described is a classic example of why developers don't write tests then the project becomes too large and it's impossible to write tests afterwards. Seriously, look into how test driven development works along with how to use the acronym.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] rebel1699:
Yeah, been an engineer for years. While that may be perfectly plausible when the gap between releases is rather large, these are dropping every few days, with one man doing them for free, when he is not at his job. There is no company paid "team" with substantial time and economic resources to be thrown at it. It is also coming from the aokp source, controlled by the aokp team. Timespan and release schedules make the chore very non-feasible for the man at home, using his hobby in the downtime.

And could you define "acronym" for me? I've never drawn one of those before. ;)

Imma only half disregard a post that has the words "you should" in it just to say who is anyone to tell someone else "you should"...

But back to the first dirty flash/ clean flash question-

I test these builds and I am a dirty flasher. Usually anyway. But if I am TESTING I will first do a full wipe and all. Caches system data. Setup wizard isn't that much of a pain really. After checking everything out and running for a bit, (and testing duties are over and link is posted and all) I'll go back to recovery and restore and dirty flash. And for the most part there isn't much of a noticeable difference. But sometimes there is. Like the getting external SD to be recognized on USB. As far as tibu goes, the only things I ever restore (if i do use it) are non-system apps (if I'm not on WiFi and I need to use them) and stuff like web bookmarks. Other than that, just signing back into things on an as needed basis isn't that big of a deal..

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] rebel1699:
Same here. I do tibu my games back on though. I have a terrible home isp, and it just takes too long to re download. Never system, though. Dont think i have ever even used tibu to backup sysytem. After so many flashes, setting back up is a quick job anyways.

I can see google, samsung, htc, moto, etc doing all this in their massive work environment with tons of manpower. But when it comes to aokp, cyanogenmod, cna, and any other source based rom, this is just a hobby. This is all done for fun, for free, and, well in all honesty will probably never be as stable as AOSP direct from google. But this is what becomes of things like this. I bet if AOKP and cyanogenmod started charging, pulled in big dev teams, and had tons of manhours at their disposal things would change. But like people said above, this is all a hobby.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] kr3w1337:
I totally understand what you're saying and everyone else is. When I suggested it, I literally meant it as a suggestion because I know for sure that it'll help you become better (knowing more never hurts right?)

Also someone asked what the acronym was:

Right-BICEP

Right - Are the results right?

B - are all the boundary conditions correct?

I - can you check the inverse relationships?

C - can you cross-check results using other means?

E - can you force error conditions to happen?

P - are performance characteristics within bounds?

CORRECT

C - Conformance - does the value conform to an expected format?

O - Ordering - is the set of values ordered or unordered as appropriate?

R - Range - is the value within reasonable minimum and maximum values?

R - Reference - does the code reference anything external that isn't under direct control of the code itself?

E - Existence - does the value exist (e.g. is not null, non-zero, present in a set)?

C - Cardinality - are there exactly enough values?

T - Time (absolute and relative) - is everything happening in order? At the right time? In time?

Keep in mind that all of those don't apply all the time.

Also, I wanna add that the budget argument may be valid or may not be. It really depends on how complicated you're making your steps.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] R4INS:
Knowing more never hurts. But for a collective of people from all across the globe working different shifts on different projects on different portions of code it gets hectic. Really it all boils down to the AOKP team themselves to verify and approve what goes into the ROM. I'm not sure how close they are in relation to sitting down for meetings etc, but it appears things are a bit willy nilly and lax when it comes to projects. Although I have the utmost respect in the AOKP team and would never run anything less on my devices.

They are a top notch crew in my eyes.

Really I'm just some flunky building for an unsupported device. If it wasn't for the cm team and the aokp team, and well random misc other people like top skyrocket wouldn't even have builds. Skyrocket is kinda a "lost/slept on" device that really never got the market or users it needed to push it into a higher development demand bracket.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] rebel1699:
Hehe, playing with you on the acronym. No, never anything wrong with aquiring knowledge. I think my main point was, the first step in any project, is the evaluation of the feasibility. Is the project itself feasible? Which steps are feasible, given the available resources? And then, the rest of the process can be laid out, according to the afformentioned findings. Its not always the perfect scenario, but how often does a gem like that present itself? I have always been management (not here, but at work), and these are the things i have to think about with all projects i work on. All that said, im glad everyone here can debate subjects such as this as adults. I truly enjoy the friendly exchange of knowledge and perspective. Hey, we all gotta learn something new everyday. Otherwise, why get out of bed?

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] eodee:
This is my first Android and one of only 2 ROMs I've ever put on it, which either substantiates my claim or detracts from it, but this ROM is excellent for daily use. It locks up and forces a restarted maybe once a day, but many people are having better results with this kernel on this rom. Battery life is good for most, even better with the linked kernel and the included governors. I had a problem a few flashes ago with not getting into "Deep Sleep" which killed my battery, but a subsequent wipe/flash fixed it.
