[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Neo-ST:
OH MY GOD.

This thread is really overwhelming...

I've been absent for like 2-3 hours and there's 30-40 pages more to read,

so SORRY for asking this but I just have to because my head hurts of all the reading.

1) I want to install 7.5 JPO. Does it have Croatian keyboard language and Croatian swype language? (I use english as system language).

If not, how do I install it ? If it isn't possible, should I install 7.5 JPA then (is it available there?) ?

2) Is there AndroDena theme for 7.5 JPO/JPA and does it include extended power menu?

3) The kernel part is a bit confusing. I know that your ROM includes hardcore's kernel, but unless I enable some tweaks in CWM it's useless? If so, what tweaks do you reccommend to turn on for best performance?

4) What's the "Install flash player" thing in medium package? I thought Froyo has it embedded automatically ?

5) Is market "cracked", meaning, can I find all apps there, because on stock it is limited?

6) I'm currently on 7.0.1 JPO and I noticed that I can't download all files from net. Some files android just doesn't wanna download, says that the file is not supported - can this be fixed? Sometimes I need to download some files and transfer them to other devices, but this way android limits me...

Thank you!

And btw, I admire how both you and Kalpik constantly help people out and I really respect your work. I'll buy you a beer soon again because I think you both deserve it and it's better than just saying "thanks", at least in my opinion :)

TO OTHERS:

(sorry, but I had an extent of spare time and nothing else to do)

What about an idea to help Doc&Kalpik a little bit ?

Since this thread is one huge mess, I thought it wouldn't be a bad idea to write&update constantly a little template-looking guide to help people out and help them understand what's what? For example:

GUIDE/EXPLANATION FOR ORDINARY PEOPLE ON DOC_KALPIK'S ROM AND ITS OPTIONS

Latest ROM:

7.5 JPO and 7.5 JPA

Difference:

language, speed, etc. (neither do I really know it :D )

Type:

it's a bare ROM - you won't get all the applications as on the stock ROM

Languages included:

system languages, swype languages, ...

How does it look like:

a picture of homescreen after fresh install

Procedure of installation:

written in Doc's original post (link)

What lagfix to choose + differences:

text goes here explaining each one - this is the part where lagfix creators should write about their lagfixes and try to explain them a bit, how do they function, what are the pros and cons so people can choose for themselves...

What kernel options to choose, how and why:

text - this is the part where "hardcore" explains his kernel mod used in Doc's ROM

I don't like the stock look, how do I change it:

text goes here explaining all the lockscreens, battery mods, themes, etc. and compatibility between them

Themes compatible with this ROM and how to apply them:

Dena, Doc's, ...

Warnings, what not to install with this ROM:

stuff proven to cause problems (like being unable to boot, etc.) if installed

I know that all this information is available already...somewhere in this thread and in the SGS subforum. Most of this information can already be copy/pasted, some of it has to be written new, but I think we'll all agree that it isn't a bad idea to put all this information on one page and save time both to users and Doc&Kalpik since people all the time keep asking same questions over and over again.

Bare in mind that this is just a proposition for some kind of template/help, it doesn't have to exist, or look like this, or have all this information. It's just an idea meant to help Doc&Kalpik out.

It even doesn't have to exist on this forum. I have enough free space on my Godaddy's shared server where Joomla can be installed. Then it is easy to create this guide and moderate it. The only problem is - it needs moderators who will be serious and professional about it. Their job would be to sync Doc&Kalpik's updates with the Guide, meaning if Doc puts a new ROM now, it should appear in Joomla in very short time. Also, if anything else is changed it has to be updated there. I don't know if there's a way to link twitter and Joomla, so that if something new comes up - it comes up on twitter too. Probably not. If not, the twitter updates would be very nice to have anyway...

One more thing would be highly appreciated, but not required - for theme/kernel/ROM creators to contact moderators when something has changed, so that they can update it as soon as possible (it is also in their interest).

The moderators would get their passwords to the Joomla so that they can edit the guide while owners of the respectable content (Doc, Kalpik, hardcore and anyone else who is importantly involved in this ROM) would be administrators, so they would practically be bosses. I would only be an owner of the Godaddy account and as such I promise that I wouldn't delete or touch the Joomla folder. If anything changes, admins and mods would be notified, of course. You wouldn't need to pay for the hosting since I have other sites of importance there, or for the domain name cost, it is not much anyway:

(just an idea)

I volunteer for editing the Guide in free time, but I can't guarantee anything, only that most of my free time is at night, around this time. Regarding the moderators, maybe it would be wise for you Doc/Kalpik to choose them (if this happens at all), since this is all about your ROM in the first place?

One more thing, this is a benevolent idea. I wouldn't want to see this guide harming your popularity or making this thread dead. You have to bare in mind that the Guide would probably decrease number of visits/reply's to this thread. Those are the consequences (if the guide is written in quality) which you should know and I don't know if you want that. Comments would be closed though, so if anyone has to ask anything or report a bug, they would be redirected here. Oh and, donation buttons would be present there as well.

Opinions from everyone are welcomed...

Sorry for taking some of your precious time and I hope that Kalpik will boot into recovery mode soon (as someone mentioned earlier - good one :D ) !
