Okay, I have been around the forums and contributed to roms here and there. I am wanting to learn more development. The mods I have made have had there place but I want to build my own rom for both my own personal use, and to share with the community.

That being said, I have a lot to learn. I am looking for a dev who is willing to conspire on a little project I want to do. Help me learn the things I need to know to finish this project I have started. I will not attempt to take full credit for what comes of this. Proper credit will be given to those who assist. Especially being I am lacking a lot of knowledge.

If anyone is interested, please pm me. If not, I'm sure in due time I will figure it out. I would appreciate any help that anyone is willing to provide. Thank you to our great devs for keeping our devices alive for so long! I am hoping to contribute to the longevity of our devices as well!

I'd love to start learning, but seems every time I ask about where to start I get either ignored or told to use Google. Lol

I've got lots of windows knowledge, training, etc. But Linux is like a foreign language.

Where can I look to start playing other than a kitchen, that's not development.
[EVO 4G General] Papa Smurf151:
Google it lmao...jk

Check out google aosp ans github and tge google android developers site. Read some of the guides on here. Start small...work on theming an apk...then modding apks...then system mods...then go to roms. If ur looking for apk dev tgen tgere are sites to help but a lot of that takes a ton of reading with trial and error

:what: lol thanks

I didn't think I was going to read a few paragraphs an be able to build a rom. I took 2 years of c++ and Java, I know how much a hassle coding can be.

So many times I'd click compile and it'd throw 3000+ errors from a comma placement.

At least I got a direction. Thanks papa! I love your mighty smurf! It kicks ass

Okay, so my main issue is porting a tweaks apk into my rom. I need someone who is willing to collaborate with me on this project. Someone who knows smali and can not only assist but educate. All credit will be shared for the assistance provided. Who's willing to go to work? Will resume working on this project tomorrow night.
[General Questions and Answers] ragamuffin2812:
Evening all, this is my first post here so a big hello to you all.

Unfortunatly my first post is a query about my kindle fire and rooting related.

Earlier this evening i rooted the kindle using the procedure i got from Liliputing using the kindle fire utility

I then went on to the extras and installed google play as directed.

I am completley new to all of this so acronyms are pretty useless but i managed to find my way.

The problem im recieving now is when i turn my kindle on i am presented with the screen which has numerous tabs/options such as recovery, install, wipe and a few others and cant seem to get the kindle working. Am i missing something or have i well and truly ruined the kindle???

Any info help will be greatly appreciated, and if you need any more info on what i have done please let me know, like i said it all new to me.

Many Thanks

Sanj
[General Questions and Answers] ragamuffin2812:
Just to add, sometimes when i turn the kindle on the original kindle fire symbol is displayed and nothing else happens.

Nice. Darn on vacation an cant flash on my glide but directing dman right away...:)

Will post a superuser zip tonight.

DO NOT FLASH YET IF YOU NEED ROOT!
[Samsung Captivate Glide] Gab1288:
I really want to try it, but i am affraid of bricking my device!
[Samsung Captivate Glide] Evil Alex:
I'm literally on the other side of the world right now and cannot afford to take the risk. And I've got the Rogers' version, so it might backfire if it does some kind of strict device ID checking(even if there is no hardware difference!).

I can say the download seems legit/safe. No viruses and when you run it you get an Odin-like interface! So excited, wish I could take the plunge...!
[Samsung Captivate Glide] Roeni:
HELL YEAH!

Tested working so far:

- GSM Network (Germany)

- Edge

- Wifi

- Camera

- Audio

See this thread for a full list of the things i've tested so far: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=30184848&postcount=17
[Samsung Captivate Glide] designgears:
Thanks for the image! I will put it in the op!

Is it running smooth?
[Samsung Captivate Glide] Roeni:
So far there are no issues.

I'm connected to my wifi, downloaded some updates from play store, successfully sent an sms. for some other tests see my post above.

...a LOT of Blot is installed xD
[Samsung Captivate Glide] bakageta:
Excellent, looking forward to installing this tonight.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] john9:
I'm about to try. Thank you!
[Samsung Captivate Glide] antharr:
The only thing holding me back is lack of root. I can't wait.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] designgears:
lack of root?

just flash cwm recovery with odin and flash the ICS superuser zip.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] antharr:
Sorry. I was under the impression that this was leaked and stock. Thank you for providing this. You sir......are awesome!
[Samsung Captivate Glide] Gab1288:
It boots on i927r (Rogers) and everything seems to be working properly!
[Samsung Captivate Glide] Aquethys:
Just a question for those who have flashed

Is it touchwiz 4 or UX ( the tw that comes on the gsiii?)

Hopefully this is all dman needs to get stock aosp...:) or better yet my favorite on my gsiii aokp

Worked on my galaxy s 3...should work on you guys. If not Google is your friend. If it does work OP feel free to add it ;)

MAKE A NANDROID Backup!

By the by, can someone pull the proprietary files so dman can finish aosp ICS? :)

Feel free to hit thanks
[Samsung Captivate Glide] Roeni:
How do i extract them?
[Samsung Captivate Glide] Evil Alex:
If it helps, I could flash this leak, and then make a back-up using CWM and provide it somehow? Could the drivers be pulled from that? Just let me know!
[Samsung Captivate Glide] dman3285:
Negative.. I have the ics proprietary.. like I said.. not my first rodeo. I compile 20 builds a day for aocp and have my own source. I know what I'm doing. I only needed the boot to get my source set up...

Going to INC3PTION until this ROM is fixed. Thank You everyone for working on this ROM, can't wait to come back when its done!
[Samsung Captivate Glide] ninthsense:
Hey, i've the Rogers version as well. Can somebody else confirm that it's OK to update the rogers and this update works fine ? Help please...
[Samsung Captivate Glide] Tyfighter:
I've only noticed a few quirks and bugs on Rogers that can be ascribed to this essentially being a beta. Stuff like, I've had to repair my BT headphones a couple times to get them to connect. Little things, nothing network related though.

Biggest thing about this is since its an at&t rom, you cannot manually step down to 2G (afaik)
[Samsung Captivate Glide] ninthsense:
Great thanks. 100 mb more left to download and then i'm upgrading it to ICS. Can't wait anymore :)

Also can somebody confirm is 1080p and flac can be played on the upgraded phones ? This is the major reason i want this upgrade.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] Adam77Root:
I understand that YOU do have the libs. When I said 'we', I was talking about the Galaxy R community.

Sent from my GT-I9103
[Samsung Captivate Glide] frav:
I was able to play FLAC files with Winamp. Sound is ok. No stuttering.

Played only 720p files : works great.

Will try with 1080p files.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] bobbinthreadbare:
I did a quick test and ripped a few thing from YouTube in 1080p. Nothing 1080 played in MXPlayer nor the stock video player (only got audio out of both, stock player had a little popup that said "audio only") so I ripped a 720p vid and threw that on, worked fine on both. Could just be the encoding from YT, I dunno.

Easy YouTube Video Downloader for Firefox allows you to choose the quality to rip so if HD is available, it'll show up if you want to try further. I don't have anything 1080p properly encoded (like a movie) to test. Didn't try FLAC.

edit: Switched MXPlayer from HW decoding to software and the 1080p vids I was trying at least show the video now. But its slow and gets out of sync with the audio in seconds.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] Tyfighter:
On a similar note, video recorded with the device does not work in the stock player. Which is worrisome.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] ninthsense:
I just tried and all my backed up videos recorded with stock player works fine. I also recorded a new one just for testing and it works fine on the stock player.

Flac works fine and as well as 720p .mov file.

1080p m2ts rebooted my phone and next time just played the music with no video.

Edit : 1080p .mov (apple quicktime format) works flawlessly on the phone :)
[Samsung Captivate Glide] antharr:
Video recorded on device plays fine in stock player for me.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] frav:
Same here !
[Samsung Captivate Glide] dude52:
Ok first off i want to point out that, i don't know what i did BUT this may be one hell of a rom because i Was just listening to music for one hour maybe like 45 minutes and my battery did not go down 1 percent I AM DEAD FRUKEN SERIOUS, This amazed me because before i'd listen to music on the original stock rom for 5 minutes and it went down by 20 percent
[Samsung Captivate Glide] ItsMeBdon:
Ive notice that my battery has been 10x better then it was on GB and i can use my phone all day without it dying!!!:laugh::laugh:
[Samsung Captivate Glide] Tyfighter:
Weird... I'll play around with it. I don't know if I care enough to reflash at this point. I'm already set up for now and I don't know how long I'm going to stay on this rom.

edit: DOH! Totally forgot that I'd removed the stock video player when I set everything up. Everything works now that I've thrown on mxplayer. Move along, nothing to see here.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] antharr:
I'm syncing gmail, Facebook, corporate email, and on cellular data all day. The battery is awesome. I still had half of my battery left after 12 hours. I would be almost dead with the GB rooms.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] frav:
I've also noticed that battery life is definitely better than GB.

I'm also syncing quite a lot of stuff (2 Exchange Corp. accounts, Skype, Yahoo & Hotmail, ...). After a whole day using it, battery is not dead ... Where GB would have been a long time ago !

Sounds very promising !
[Samsung Captivate Glide] dude52:
Exactly right!!!!!
[Samsung Captivate Glide] brunobbarcelos:
I changed the bootanimation, now using the ICS stock from Galaxy SII. Just had to copy two .qmg files over the old ones, set the permissions, wiped cache and dalvik. Did this because while we don´t have custom kernel will not be possible to use .zip bootanimation and i couldn´t find a way to edit .qmg file.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] Aquethys:
S2? Why not SIII? ^__^

Good sign if we have better battery life on ICS. But JB is a different beast...with project butter ;)

With system dump etc I'll see if I can debloat this and add some things...no promises :)
[Samsung Captivate Glide] cinguliano:
Installation on my unlocked Galaxy S Glide was extremely smooth and easy.

I do have three issues: well, the first is the lack of keyboard backlight, but the other two I haven't seen mentioned so far.

* Phone gets much hotter now while it's charging. That can't be good.

*** PHONE GOT RELOCKED!!! ***

If you have unlocked your phone (so you can use any GSM carrier SIM card with it), flashing the ICS leak can relock it! As an example, I bought the Rogers version of this phone but unlocked so I could use my AT&T Go Phone SIM card. After flashing this ICS leak I ended up with the huge irony of a phone with AT&T software that would not accept my AT&T SIM card because it got relocked to Rogers. Good thing I still had the email with the unlock code around. But if you unlocked your phone, be very careful.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] brunobbarcelos:
Was not able to find .qmg files from SIII. :D
[Samsung Captivate Glide] Evil Alex:
This used to happen with Roger's based roms as well. Mine relocked, too. This was when I used OsiMood. However, after the first time I decided to print out the code and stuck it on the inside of the back-cover. This way you're safe when you re-lock somewhere in the middle of nowhere, and you actually need your phone the most! ;)
[Samsung Captivate Glide] santimaster2000:
Same here, I have it in my wallet.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] ninthsense:
I can confirm as well that the rogers gets locked again after updating through the ICS update. Please make sure you have your unlock code handy while updating it.

Battery is certainly better than GB. I've now downloaded all my apps including all day synching apps like yahoo, gmail and my corporate emails.

Till now all is smooth but I'll wait for a couple of days to give my final review. My mail aim of playing .flac and 1080p are fulfilled as of now.

Only now if somebody can find the fix for the keyboard backlight, this ROM would be perfect.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] bakageta:
Happen to have a link to these? I'd love to have the stock ICS boot animations.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] dude52:
I second this for the keyboard light
[Samsung Captivate Glide] taiber2000:
can some one confirm that this ICS update has multi-language support? or even MUI?

i need my hebrew man.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] ninthsense:
Only shows the languages given below:

Deutsch

English

Espanol

Francais

Italiano

Mandarin (or something similar)
[Samsung Captivate Glide] brunobbarcelos:
The Zip with ICS Galaxy SII boot files, i used only bootsamsung.qmg and bootsamsungloop.qmg.

Rename old ones

Copy new,

Change permissions,

Reboot cwm,

Wipe cache and dalvik,

Boot twice

(that´s how worked for me).

Permissions:

[Samsung Captivate Glide] taiber2000:
so will wait for a custom build that will include full languages support.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] Kombatant:
Update: After one more day of testing, battery consumption is the same (even a tiny bit better) than Inception v1. The usual suspect (the Facebook app) was draining my battery as usual, once I logged off, battery consumption came back to normal.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] jayjayjoker2:
Is there a way to set the facebook app to only use the internet when you click on it i hate how its always running
[Samsung Captivate Glide] cinguliano:
The languages are German, English, Spanish, French, Italian and Korean.

---------- Post added at 04:08 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:59 PM ----------

A few UX downgrades in the ICS build:

1. Video Player - I have not had issues playing back any of my video files, whether recorded with the phone or encoded on my PC. However, the stock video player in Gingerbread always switched to landscape for playback, even when you had screen autorotation off. The stock player in this ICS does not switch to landscape for playback unless you have autorotation on... I hate autorotation; it's the first thing I turn off after every new installation.

2. Alpha tag in the status bar. You'll have your carrier's name always shown in the upper-left corner of the screen ala iPhone. :(

3. AT&T Address Book nagging you every time you open Contacts. GRRR!

4. Asphalt 6 Adrenaline - If you purchased this game from the Play Store rather than through the in-app purchase on the demo, sorry the Play Store version is incompatible with ICS on the Glide.

I'm not tempted to revert to Gingerbread yet, but this ROM isn't as rosey as it first seems.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] Pyho:
I noticed this too. It's not only the Video Player, Youtube doesn't do the same now too. I realized the other day that I could just make a Tasker profile for this, though and doing that works well. Hopefully this feature will be restored later.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] brunobbarcelos:
2. This two links may solve your problem (for me is a lot of work to remove such small thing):

2.1 - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1613480

2.2 - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1466100

3. I erased a lot of AT&T crap after root and now i don´t have the AT&T Address Book but i can´t tell what to remove, :D

4. As i don´t use the phone for games don´t know if is related, but try rooting and removing the Asfalt that comes with this ICS.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] roothorick:
I wonder if the ICS secril will work in JB AOSP... if it does, we'll have Jelly Bean in like, two weeks once someone takes a crack at it.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] amir_numb:
Jst install "more locale2" application from market .. your problem will be gone ;)
[Samsung Captivate Glide] greeneyez15o:
How do i get the keyboard to light up ?
[Samsung Captivate Glide] antharr:
You don't. It's one of things not working on this ROM.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] greeneyez15o:
Anyone know the flashplayer that would work with this rom ?
[Samsung Captivate Glide] zmk76:
Can anyone access service menu using the *#*#4636#*#* code?
[Samsung Captivate Glide] Viktor0610:
I can't reach it with your code, but I saw another code to get a service menu like thing: *#7353# :)

@ greeneyez15o: PM
[Samsung Captivate Glide] Kombatant:
That's actually one of the few things that irritate me.. anyone knows what to remove so as to get rid of the AT&T address book? Or is it embedded in the apk?
[Samsung Captivate Glide] antharr:
Root and remove. This is still a stock ROM and bloat is going to be an issue. It will probably be an issue in the official release as well. Your options are to root or flash another ROM.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] doode2011:
You can remove bloat after downloading superuser, and manually deleting the apps.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] mj.vikram:
If you are talking about Adobe Flash player, you can get from here it works on ICS too....
[Samsung Captivate Glide] dman3285:
Because the kernel doesn't support bln
[Samsung Captivate Glide] cinguliano:
I was able to install Flash Player from the Play Store, one day after it was supposed to be gone.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] bobbinthreadbare:
I made a backup of the APK the day before it was supposed to be taken down, if anyone needs it. I watched an episode of Aqua Teen in Opera via a streaming site using a flash player. Worked great.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] Kombatant:
I don't think bln has anything to do with it man; the kernel used in 2.3.x didn't support bln as well and it had keyboard backlighting.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] greeneyez15o:
Which was the last flashplayer apk that was compatible ?
[Samsung Captivate Glide] antharr:
This is true. Honestly, I could care less about BLN but I do miss the keyboard backlight. I am sure this will be addressed in future kernels. Would the keyboard backlight be a kernel issue as well Dman?
[Samsung Captivate Glide] roothorick:
Did anyone else notice the kernel version?

3.1.10-I927UCLG9-CL970642 (se.infra@SEP-121) (gcc version 4.4.3 (GCC) ) #1 SMP PREEMPT Fri Jul 27 23:29:32 KST 2012

3.1.10... well ****, my Kindle is running CM10 and that's back on 3.0.31. This krenel may happily drop right into JB AOSP, and if it does, secril will likely follow, bing-bang-boom Jelly Bean on the Glide.

I'm not promising anything, but this just got a whole hell of a lot more likely.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] dman3285:
You really have no idea what your talking about "man".
[Samsung Captivate Glide] jwood55812:
No actually he's right, the stock kernel doesn't support bln, and the the keyboard lights up fine. We're talking about the lights on the hardware keyboard, not the capactive keys.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] cinguliano:
Has anyone figured out how to take a screenshot? The old method of holding down the capacitive Home button while pressing the Power button doesn't work in the ICS build, nor does the more ICS-like of pressing both Power and a volume buttons.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] Viktor0610:
I can take screenshots if I press the Home and then the Power button at the same time.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] greeneyez15o:
Istead of tappin try holding the home n power @ the same time it worked for me
[Samsung Captivate Glide] slyism3003:
Messing with 4.0

First off thanks for posting this. Was really thinking that there wasn't gonna be an update for this phone, with some of the rollbacks by HTC & Sony.

I've been going around town with the new update for the past few days & put it through everything i could think of (games,internet,customization).

Games: Asphalt7-Laggy at times but can connect to other players. Not in sync w/accelerometer at times. Kept veering off.

NBA Jam-Occasional freezes during game play but looks great. Didn't freeze on GB.

Mass Effect Infiltrator-Freezes less here than on GB during extra missions.

GPS: Locked on in seconds. Even asked me to calibrate compass. Couldn't find it in settings.

WiFi: Strong lock especially with 5.0ghz N band. Also now you can use Kies air to sync. I personally use My Phone Explorer. I hardly plug in my

phone into my laptop anymore at home. BTW MTP worked great. Automatic file conversion ;)

4G: I live in Orlando so there's LTE here but obviously there's no LTE on this phone. I haven't dropped below 4G here yet. Netflix, Dolphin &

Firefox Beta(Flash works great),Facebook,streaming Shoutcast through Winamp (need my Bassdrive). No signal drop and I go from one

end of city to other every day.

Bluetooth: Pairing,file transfer and music worked fine for me.

Gallery: Large pics don't load in gallery or show up when you select them. Also there is no horizontal selection for home screen wallpaper.

Only vertical mode and it zooms in on picture.

Hope this isn't too long or redundant but all in all the bugs are fixed before final release( no keyboard back light). Thanks.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] bobbinthreadbare:
Has anyone experienced any charging issues? I could be nuts but my phone doesnt seem to like all chargers since flashing ICS. I first noticed it the other night when I crashed at my friends, 2 of his USB chargers didnt chage my Glide. I finally found a cable to charge with via his laptop. Now Im at my friends bar and we keep a regular USB charger out for everyone. I know Ive charged my phone with this charger before, but it isnt working for my Glide now. The only difference is the ROM Im running. If anyone gets a chance, try using various chargers. Im likely wrong since charging via USB is such a low level thing, but my phone isnt liking a lot of chargers it should since I flashed ICS.

My normal charger is an old Droid 1 charger. I might be nuts, I might just be trying crappy chargers, maybe something is wrong with my Glide, I dont know. But my phone is being picky as hell with chargers since I flashed the ICS ROM. Any input from others testing is welcome.
