Doc, I stopped doing nandroid backups .. they NEVER seem to restore correctly, is that a fault my end ?

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] DocRambone:
I think nandroid is a real life saver. ALL data is there... so you can restore all you want.

I even store the nandroids in a safe place :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dupel:
If im correcet you have to restore it on the same firmware you did it. Eg JPO-> JPO

Sorry, I m very new to this forum, I had juz upgraded from JP6 to JPA7.5, so I would like to ask , are the lagfix and Tweak options still useful? If so then I will enable them else I wont.

Thanks Doc for his hardwork.

Doc and Stefunel,

You're both doing an excellent job, thanks for the Kitchen. I made a donation to you both. Keep up the good work!

Cheers from Amsterdam!

How do i access the beta kitchen?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] bobcart:
You must choose either XWJS3 Stock Theme or XWJS3 AOSP Theme.

Any other theme will break the Norwegian locale ;)

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kjibba:
After having set up your phone with Norwegian locale you can flash a theme of your choice. Norwegian will disappear from the list of locales, but it will still be your actual active locale.

I'm curious as to why this is so, but I can live with it.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] stefunel:
Thank you for the donations!

I have just replied to all the PMs I got and replied to all the donation emails.

I'm sorry, I don't want to appear rude here, but I have to ask. Do people read the few pages before they make a post? Just wondering because all I'm reading are posts asking 'i don't see it in the kitchen, where is it in the kitchen?', with a reply of ' it's in the beta kitchen currently, in public soon', followed by ' how do I get access to the beta kitchen then?', followed by the 'donate' post. If people just read the entire first post, and then maybe the last 10 or 20 posts they probably wouldn't need to ask any questions, and this thread would be half the size and much easier to follow. Just a thought... :)

The files/themes in the kitchen have not been updated for JS5. So far, all indications are that the JS3 files run well on JS5.

((My understanding is that most of the files have been stable for quite a while... and the name JPY or JS3 or JS5 in front just means that it has been tested with that build and works fine. As always, if anyone has difft/better info I'd be glad to hear it :))
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] deepsleo:
Way off-topic but I'm sure, it will find its use here. Having been a long time user/follower of Doc's ROM and being an avid media guy, I wanted to share something about our beloved SGS media capability. Ever disappointed with the inability to play a 5.1 AC3 mkv file (<4GB) directly on SGS? Need to encode it to Mp4? Well....no more, what you need to do is just use mkvmerge, add the mkv file with 5.1 audio and then add any mp3 file..press start muxing and voila..this file is playable on SGS. It just occurred to me after quite a few trials and it works. Just wanted to share that first with my friends using DOC's ROM first. Enjoy. The whole process takes just under 5 minutes. Sorry, if it has been found by someone already or if you find it useless....but I'm very happy. :-)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dcarr622:
Has browser been updated to JS5? Still says JS3, wondering if it's different/better?

Just trying to figure out if all of the changes in JS5 have been deployed to all areas of the ROM yet or not :)

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Tom_82:
Dear DOC, why you write "Updated: 9/2: XWJS5 added"?? This is only "BETA" now ... and it confuses others..

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] G.Reaper:
I second the motion! If you don't want stupid questions asked repeatedly, don't post things that you know will confuse people - this thread is over 1640 pages! Nobody's going to read anything!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] marcedli:
On one hand it's true on the other hand it's not.

Of course it can confuse people but only for that seconds until you go to the kitchen and see that it is not there. That time it's clear: it's not in the kitchen yet.

Then you have a lot of options:

1. Wait silently and see when it will be in public kitchen

2. Ask in the thread when it will be in the public kitchen

3. Try to force Doc and Stefunel to be released in the public kitchen, and write posts about that

Yes, it needs only one more word, 'beta' in the thread's name but due to my experience here it doesn't matter. Whether it's written or not, there are 10-50 posts about when it will be in public....so doesn't matter.

Each rom's kitchen implementation needs to be tested thoroughly in order to avoid bugs and 500 posts about this or that not works, so be patient, it will be released in public, I don't know when.

Ok, I am on beta JS5 now, it seems to be identical to JS3 in terms of speed, but I notice that after I installed a VA green theme, I don't have the 4 unlockers in Display menu.

It seems that Cosmic theme has those 4 unlock screens.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] oversim:

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] vukandric:
No, you are wrong. Themes works with JS5, many users confirmed that. He just didn't flash settings.apk that have those options for lockscreens, I made separate theme and themed apps.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] vukandric:
There is no need to, I want separate theme and themed apps. :P So if someone doesn't want some of themed apps, he just need to delete it from apps zip.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] AndroIrish:
Just reporting back from the issues I had before with this ROM and posted here.

It appears my issues were due to the fact I did not do a factory reset before installing this ROM and I was coming from Darkyy's rom.

For some reason with the Doc's ROM my phone was rebooting every now and then with no apparent reason.

I installed Doc's again after I did a full factory reset and wipe again (Had to do it twice, apparently sometimes even though you install a new ROM, it is not fully installed, so I still had some left over settings/apps from the old ROM).

After this wipe and installed it a second time right after the first install, everything works as expected, old settings gone etc. I am on JS3 and a colleague is on JPY, had not had a single issue since.

Thanks guys, great job

Hello,

Thanx,

But Nothings XWJS5 added
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] st4rk:
Not meaning to sound rude.. But offering something that is only available if you donate.. Is basically selling it.. Which goes against xda imo.

It used to be with docs rom if you donate because you appreciate his effort, you get included in the beta testing of new rom.. Which lasted a day or so before full release.

What i see hear is different.. No mention of beta release.. Just first for payers second for not..

I'm personally not bothered with waiting but it has been a good few days of 'testing' and still no mention of when standard release is going out.

You might want to rethink you strategy on next release.. Because this is a bit off.

Xda is a free open source community please don't forget that ;-)

I'm probably going to get some hate from posting this but i feel that someone needs to say it.

Edit - oh and please don't think that i don't appreciate your effort, i do.

I agree. I think the thread name is misleading as well. Why state a new release in full view of public when it is only available to beta testers. I hope this rom will not derail into another marketing cum money making scheme.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zurchpet:
Actually testing of 9.5 is only 1 day so far. And Doc is still busy. Give that guy some time and he'll release... The beta access for donators is a thank you for donators. They don't get a finished ROM. They can't claim support for ROMs generated from Beta Kitchen. Be sure Doc will release as soon as he has spare time.

BTW: JS5 9.5 Beta is actually looking, feeling and running the same as JS3 9.1.4 - You don't miss anything not having the beta.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] evensteven:
Are you serious? Epic fail... XWJS5 was added yesterday, I don't know when the days(plural!) of testing passed. In my timezone this is one single day... Also what else to say in an announcement than "new base in beta kitchen" to make it clear that even you understand it. No one is charged for anything here as the open kitchen is free for everyone. You can donate and get the "gift" to test the ROM for the majority...

If your post would based on a few good arguments, but it's just pure impatience. So yes, here is some hate for you.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] omnia-one4all:
he is talking about the spirit of xda not that he can't have the beta and I can understand that people get annoyed when the thread reads js5 and it's only available to donaters. I donated as well but don't care about the beta.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] rizzy123:

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jornbjorn:
Agree with you. This is clearly a way to force donations. I appriciate the job the devs are doing on this rom, but this looks more and more like a paid product.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] rizzy123:
what im really looking forward to is either 2.3 or at least some kind of software from samsung which makes the wifi direct thing useable. official 2.3 looks far off as i highly doubt even the Galaxy S2 which is supposed to be showcased tomorrow comes with 2.3 preinstalled.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] st4rk:
As expected here comes the hate..

Simply put i'm still on JPY so that's your patience idea out of the window.

Read the thread title again and tell me it doesn't imply js5 rom is ready. No mention of beta there from what i can see.

Anyway yer maybe at a day and a half i am over reacting but in all honesty there was no mention of timeframe or that js5 wasn't a finished product. If people are donating to get access to js5 then i exquate that with selling it. People don't know it's still buggy or that doc is busy so it's not finished, the see the thread title, know that it's available but only if you donate. Very misleading if you ask me. Especially as there haven't really been and bug reports ;-)

I'll overlook the epic fail comment in the spirit of good natured discussion. :-)

I just get the feeling that it is turning into a money making venture and don't want to see it go down that road.. Although i do understand the time and effort put in and that stefunel has server costs to pay.

I could always be wrong but it doesn't hurt anyone to talk about it, does it?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] DamianGto:
well it seems to be less buggy.

the stock keyboard do work.

so far i have not seen any of the bugs i did see with js3. so its a bugfix.

if you compare jpy, js3 and js5 then its js3 that's worst of them. performance is not so much different.

so let doc take the time he need.

I think donations are great but they can get dangerously close to the sales line if not careful.

I have been meaning to donate to you for a while.. But i wouldn't want to do it for beta access i would do it because i think you deserve it. I have donated to curio and some other kernel devs defore because they made my phone better.. That's the spirit of it.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] omnia-one4all:
St4rk you could also focus on the 4 or 5 comment's that sees what you mean and agrees with your point of view instead to focus on 1 "hate" comment. That only shifts the discussion to a negative side which isn't very productive

No offence taken, donations will never be the thing here, the beta kitchen is to sort out bugs, and we use it as a small bonus for the support, both here and in irc. Donators will be given access to betas and the beta will be in open kitchen day after.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] gtluis:
You have a nice way of saying what you don't like without being rude, honestly, if I were a great dev who could bring so much innovation and benefits to other people for free, I would definitley find some way to be rewarded by them.

Doc and stef are not putting a price on beta kitchen, they don't ask for a minimum donation, they are just rewarding their supporters with a little something, something that only devs had access before, they are sharing that acces as a thanks for supporters. Title was indeed misleading... I agree, but we all know they beta test everything first, so not a really big deal, you know you are gonna get there soon.

You might get this as a sale strategy, but... beta testers know they are gonna get the buggy and unstable version of the ROM, public kitchen users will get the more refined rom, I don't really this is so bad but the other way around, if you have more users using the beta kitchen, then you get more bug reports, and then make a better public release...
