[Galaxy S I9000 General] dakine:
Option 2 for sure. Just make sub-forums for the i9000 and all the other variants.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Beards:
But by doing Option 2 you will ultimately end up doing what you are saying we should not do.

If we split it we will have the same questions being answered in the different phone sections.

At least keeping them altogether will give a 'ground base' where a topic is seen and replied together and not split. :)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] orateam:
can I change my vote then ?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] jUsT2eXy:
but seeing At&T and Verizon etc all over the forum sucks.

Also we Euros seem to be more technologically with it (no offence) and it is better to segregate the phone users and let the US do there thing, Euros do there own...

no one is saying don't browse all the forums for ideas.. just rss them or something..

People over in the US will most of the time have different problems than the Euro guys... but as people have said they may have the same so using 'FORUM SEARCH will bring up all the forums results so it is a win win situation but without the clutter

please please please pick option 2..

yes but that would not be our problem.. it will be the users of that specific sections problem...

otherwise in this one forum many people will post the same thing... sticky or no sticky they will... so isn't it better for them to post the same question in different forums to minimise the same questions being asked..

ok confusing.. but you get my drift :p

Split Em' Up

Option Two
[Galaxy S I9000 General] heygrl:
I don't think we know how similar these phones are yet as far as "Android Development" goes.

Galaxy S Series forum
[Galaxy S I9000 General] rkantos:
I also second this. The most part of the hardware is very similiar, besides the camera, flash, gyroscope, and? For each ROM you could just have different versions for different phones. Or You could just make the ROM support all the hardware that is found on all GS based phones. Don't think it'll bother anyone, if their menu has a flashlight -app.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Gooofy:
I believe it should only be split between GSM and CDMA.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] mickeko:
I picked option 2. The different Galaxy S phones will definitely not use the same accessories (such as cases) since they have different designs, so having a common accessories section doesn't make sense.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Darrien13:
Option 2 or things will get nice and confusing
[Galaxy S I9000 General] tyj82:
Option 3

I would prefer option 2 but if option 3 is better

Samsung Galaxy Series

- Galaxy General

- Galaxy Acessories

- Galaxy S Android Development

- Sprint Epic Android Development

- Captivate Android Development

- Fascinate Android Development

- Vibrant Android Development

- Galaxy Themes and Apps

The ROM are too important to split up... making one mistake for noob put the phone as paper weight.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] helinus:
Option 1 for sure. Samsung Galaxy S series phones are to similar to have separate categorys
[Galaxy S I9000 General] crabby09:
Option 1 all the way! I can't be bothered looking through so many forums when, realistically, most accessories, apps and games will be fine for all the variants.

crabby
[Galaxy S I9000 General] crestsider:
I voted for Option 2.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] vytman:
Option 3.

I think the European and the American versions should be in different forums.

One for the Galaxy S and one for all the American models.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] jhnstn00:
Option 1

I like option 1. Knowing me, I would end up looking through all 5 general discussions to find the same thing, when that portion will be 99% the same.

ROM development will of course have to be separated.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] monzablue16v:
Wade through 5 forums to find the same app 5 times or put universal apk's, updates, fixes, tools in a GSM/CDMA forum and then individual ones for carrier specific files. save trawling :)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] J-Hop2o6:
Option 1 FTW!! the only thing that should be separated is the Roms sections.. but is this different than Windows Mobile? the only thing that its separated by is GSM and CDMA.. but many country's use the same WWE ROMs (like Energy Roms). So how will the US GSM carries (T-Mobile and AT&T) differ from the GSM WWE Euro Roms?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] jana999:
Same, I somewhat totally agree with u. "Nods head with zeal and ignorance".
[Galaxy S I9000 General] imekul:
#1 get my vote. :-)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] accinfo:
Perhaps let's decide after US phones are out in the market?

So we'll be able to how different / similar each ROM is.

If they are too different, then we can have different sections.

If not, then we can group them in the same place.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] chococrazy:
Coming from the Hero. You NEED to seperate them. You don't want people ending up with paper weights after they flass a GSM rom. The name won't deter noobs.

You need atleast to seperate GSM/CDMA. Also, development threads should be seperate for each version. Minute changes can end up in different development for one phone.

They each should have their own general section.

If there happens to be a battery problem with the cdma version, but not with the GSM version the general would be cluttered with CDMA people ****** about how they have crap battery, and then there would be mass chaos because you'd have to search through threads to find fixes.

At the minimum separate GSM/CDMA; option 2 would be the best.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Ryukeima:
I vote for Option #1 because it seems the most logical.

Reason : Redundancy

Option 2 will create redundant forums; redundant forums create extra/redundant work for moderators; surely we do not need 25 forums for one phone series.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] MrNetwork:
I voted for option 2 because the Fascinate has the least amount of information available for it, and I don't really want to wade through all the others. It appears it won't be out for a long time on Verizon. I'm glad they announced it would be available for Verizon so I didn't buy a Droid X, but they could have announced a date. Maybe they didn't want to hurt the Droid X and Droid 2 sales.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] k2snowboards88:
I think it should be up to developers who are able to decide how similar code base to hacks will be. I don't think there should be separate boards if the majority of hacks and roms will be the same. If the majority will be different, then split up the forums.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] jzh797s:
I vote Option 2 for the sole reason that accessories are likely to be different for the keyboard version (Epic).

+ I'd love to see an Epic specific general section.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] kot_as_kot:
your option descriptions are inconsistent with the title. I voted option 2 by title (keep under one roof) though my vote should have been for option 1 in the message body.

I also think there is no extra need to breack up all differnet models. In a year we will have a dozen of them with/without a keyboard etc. Just split GSM/CDMA
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Deedend:
I vote for option 1, because substantially it's the same phone with minor changhe... it's a good idea to split the developement sections, but the other for me is enough to stay all togheter.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ewingr:
Well, with all the phones coming out pretty soon, it's about time for a decision :)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] J-Hop2o6:
T-Mobile Vibrant = July 15

AT&T Captivate = July 18

Sprint Epic 4G = TBA

Verizon Fascinate = TBA
[Galaxy S I9000 General] svetius:
Ok, Option 1 wins! If anyone has a mega huge objection to this, PM me before Monday! Thread closed. Thanks for your insights.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] svetius:
Ok all,

Change of plans. I got a lot of PM's from people making very good points about how option 1 will quickly get confusing to many. Also, after speaking with some mods, we feel that the Galaxy S devices will be highly popular, necessitating individual forums. That is coming within a day or two.

Okay, I figured it out. Yeah, I installed Astro and backed up the files, but I had to figure out ADB commands to get it from the sdcard in the emulator to an actual folder on the computer. On my HTC Touch, I just plug it in and it shows up as a drive, but the emulator is different.

Here's the apps:

NYTimes, like Operabridge, is listed as private in Astro. So if anyone knows how to get around this, let me know.

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zer0day:
I don't know about the stock email app but K9 supports push, although it's quite flakey on 2.2 (most caused by service api changes)
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] [IO]ERROR:
The stock supports push but I think only for exchange servers. I'm not sure Hotmail can push.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] techlogik:
Push is only for Exchange. And the stock one sucks for features and the interface.

If you want good Exchange support for Activesync with push, use the Desire Rom, the interface and features are good.

Also, there is a third party Exchange push app that does it all too that will run on stock Roms.

Any other Push I don't think exist right now...but then again, I guess I never really looked and needed it since I used Exchange.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rcgabriel:
To the original poster - if you use any standard IMAP email provider that supports IMAP IDLE, K9mail has flawless push email. Unfortunately, I don't think Hotmail supports IMAP IDLE.

Setting the record straight - I've been running K9mail 2.8 and now 2.9 on FRF50, then FRF72 and now FRF83 and IMAP IDLE has been rock solid stable for me. Not a glitch since several releases ago.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] muncheroo:
i've never used hotmail (ok i lie i used it in 1998) but if it supports forwarding or pop you can forward all email to gmail or have gmail fetch hotmail through pop. android's native gmail app supports push.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clickwir:
You could also setup your gmail account to go POP your hotmail account on a regular interval. Then anything that gets brought over would be pushed to your local android gmail app right away.

Hotmail will have Exchange support shortly, so you could wait and do it that way.

Or you can get GMail to pull your emails and then read them in the GMail client. The problem with this message is that you reply from GMail and not Hotmail.

It's not possible to get Hotmail to forward emails outside of their accounts.

I have 3 accounts set up in gmail and also have Gmail Notifier (from marketplace) installed. I get separate color and sound notification depending on which account receives email with this combo.

If you have other non-gmail accounts just set them to forward to a dummy gmail account - you'll still be able to get custom notification (trackball, sound etc)

I have been gone from the seen for a while after the Sense2.5 screenshot leak that eventually cost me my job at Big Red.

No worries though. I am back now with a TP2 in hand and VZW's MR2 installed.

I have been hard at work on all sorts of Manila icon replacements for Sense 2.5 and should be updating my website (tp2.bfgreenberg.com) soon with all the goodies.

UPDATE

I have reworked many of the icons.

I have a CAB available for some testing as there are just too many icons for me to find every error (over 350 icon replacements so far)

Some things to know if you decide to test:

I have seen the "black screen of death" after the 1st reboot after installing. If you get this, just DO NOT hit the VOL UP button. Any other button will allow the phone to boot normally.

The file is HUGE. Over 1 MB so it takes a while to install.

I have verified that it does UNinstall cleanly.

Please email me any problems you find to iconpack@bfgreenberg.com and please include screenshots.

When emailing me please put ICONPACK in the subject line and be sure to include your XDA username in the body on the email

Please make sure to reboot after installing or un-installing (not just restart Sense) ... this is because there are other graphic files (BMP, PNG) in additional to manila files.

This is FAR FROM COMPLETE. Still email me if you see something that doesn't look right. I will reply if it is indeed a bug or just something that I haven't gotten to yet.

Included in this:

World Clock Slider

All Contacts Slider

Individual Contact Slider

Photo Albums Slider

Music Library Slider

Other contacts icons

Settings icons (can be seen on my website)

Notifications icons (can be seen on my website)

Other icons here and there scattered throught the UI.

Update - July 28, 2010

Minor Bug Fixes

Call Log Icons

Update - August 2, 2010

Minor Bug Fixes

More Icons

This will probably be the last BETA before the final release.

I have received very little feedback which tells me that either nobody gives a crap or that it works really well.

I HAVE NO IDEA HOW THIS WILL INTERACT WITH CHT - USE AT YOUR OWN RISK

NOR WILL IT LOOK GOOD WITH A TRANSPARENT SLIDER / BOTTOM CURTAIN (for now - options for this will be included in the final release).

THIS IS FOR UNCOMPRESSED MANILA ONLY (again - for now)

PLEASE!!!!

No requests for different icons if you just dont like the ones I have used.
