I am 46 this year. I have a family with 2 kids. I have a job to do, and only in my spare time I devote myself to making of rom.

What's the basic aim of xda? To learn, and using the knowledge gained and share with those who are noobs, just like me once. That to me is the spirit of xda! "To Pass It On" is my motto.

And to the quoted post above, if he doesn't have the time to do so, just say it. Why did he link donations to the post?

I have only received 1 donation despite the fact that my rom was also d/l-ed quite a fair bit too. Despite this fact, you can check my posts that not once have I asked for a donation. Go figure.

P/s: Will it be a lost to xda? Time will tel and I seriously doubt it, as there will always be others who will step in.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] networkn:
I think people are being overly harsh and to be honest I don't feel it serves good purpose to continue down this line of negative feedback.

I hope at some point webstar reconsiders his plans to abandon this project, but I do understand the attempt to balance his studies with his other projects and since this has become much more than a home/personal project I can understand him trying to determine the level of interest in his project. Chances are most of the people who use these roms spend a few $ buying apps, I don't feel it unreasonable to donate a few dollars to the person who makes your phone what it is.

Having said that, I feel the communication could have been handled a little better.

May I recommend again that everyone tries to keep things civil and pleasant if for no other reason than you are using a ROM by someone who has donated his time and effort and keep things in perspective.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] webstar1:
Ok people, i have came on the descision that i will continue suppprting my roms but that it will be a bit slower than how fast it was before.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] hardmusicfun:
Hey, Dude. Please enter in your forum and answer the question that i wrote there
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] g00ndu:
@webstar1,

That's good to hear. We both know we enjoy what we do. :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ock:
Some file hosting sites have various programmes for uploaders, where they pay a small amount for every download. With 6000+ downloads and counting, that may be enough to buy you a beer of two ;)

Just a small suggestion for you; in the end users get to enjoy extra mirrors, while you can get "paid" - a win-win situation?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] networkn:
Good call webstar, Thanks for continuing your support. I am looking forward to your next product.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] bartoszradka:
Good
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mathijs727:
I really think that a miui rom will be very popular.

I will certanly use it when its ready.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Darkyy:
@webstar1 and everyone here,

I fully understand your statement, webstar1. :)

I think you aren't much older as I am (18).

We are young and we do this for free because we like to do it.

We like to share - we like it if people like our work.

This makes us stronger in a certain way :)

It would be sad if you would stop developing completely.

XDA is here because of people like you - who contribute something.

I just wish you the best for your future! :)

Joël / darkyy

PS: If you need any help, contact me :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] webstar1:
Love it darkky when for every message u write

"ps: if u need help pm me :) "

Thanks again.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] webstar1:
I am now taking in improvement requests, please give me some sensible suggestions and pm me any mods u wud like in this rom that u have and u will earn a place in the credits list. I just really want to make it the ULTIMATE ROM
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] maiorca:
You're great !
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] webstar1:
well thank you
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] alekos panagulis:
Good to hear :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] networkn:
My biggest request would be to go through the YABD thread and see how many of the tweaks can be built into your ROM at release time, one of my biggest issues is battery life and also lack of theme's. I would much prefer to go back to a standard keyboard for the dialler.

Other requests would be the ability to upload right from the camera to an image hosting service like imageshack, which would then allow you to email the link to someone?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] networkn:
Is anyone able to test and see if this is working for them? I get not found when I run it.

http://www.androidzoom.com/android_themes/wallpapers/adwtheme-blue-steel_jnnt_download.html
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] webstar1:
Any theme with the 4 lockscreen nod is compatable,
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] fabrizioguess:
Hi webstar1,

your rom is the best!! if possible in your ULTIMATE ROM I'd like have Latest Kernel: Ver K12L (13-Jan) - Sound quality improvements. Performance tweaks. Voodoo Sound v1.

Thanx!!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] networkn:
Thanks. I'll do some searching.

Would be keen for a kernel in the next version that supports sound improvements via the voodoo project.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] webstar1:
I'll obviously include the latest kernel in the next release, but you can flash it anyway with the cwk updates
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] webstar1:
Theres nothing to add from the yabd thread for my rom. Although I will try to super optimise my rom next time
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] MarkyG82:
As above. The sound kernel would be good.

It could just be me but gtg launcher would be good. Unless people prefer the stock look?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jodmos:
Just found this, would like to try it out but on first post it says Download Removed. is there anywhere I can go to get this?:confused:
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] webstar1:
oh sorry, put it back now lol
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] webstar1:
Its really weird that when I put my rom on a different site then everyone was like why? But darky does it and nobody cares and goes along with it. Pretty weird.

Anyway, I think heres my plan, I will have a official homepage for my rom, a propper .com domain. But I will update my rom on xda AND on its homepage. So if you don't want to visit it then its fine as I will update it here as well.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jaju123:
Make it flashable with CWM 3.0 please. Some new format I cannot remember the name is :) might as well be future proof.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] networkn:
If you get a theme that is a APK file, how do you install it? It's a theme for ADW-EX Launcher
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] AsgardCurse:
In my opinion, XDA forum search is quite crappy, having your own forum for your ROM is a great idea, of course keeping the thread here, after all, it's here we find you.

When it comes to threads, yours ain't as bad as Darkys, hehe, try find out if someone have mentioned some bug there. However, It's way easier to find stuff on a phpBB even if it was as many posts as Darkys thread, plus the thing with your own forum is that you have everything in different threads. So bugs in one place, requests in another, thanx in a third...

Hehe, and I was the first user on your forum except you :P
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] webstar1:
Don't worry, I have a plan this time.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Darkyy:
Hehe I just try to help everyone ;)

BTW: Did you already switch to the Edify Language in the updater-script?

If not, I could help you.

And provide some scripts. :)

That's how a ROM chef has to think! ;)

Enthusiasm is the key for success.

Really? Did people really asked "why"? :eek:

I don't understand it - you are trying to help people by setting up a whole forum (the work behind it isn't "nothing" >> Webspace, Domain etc.) and they complain?

However, I learnt something - NEVER listen to people who are trying to get you down. :)

Exactly my thoughts!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jodmos:
Thanks for that.

I am on Darkys 8.0 at the moment, my first try at a custom rom, and like it very much but would like to try your Ultimate rom, can I safely flash it straight over Darkys rom?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] AsgardCurse:
I've flashed back and fourth between Darkys and Ultimate a few times, no wipe. It's worked fine for me. Only thing is that you may have a few things on your SD card like "Darkys wallpapers" and also some leftover programs.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jodmos:
Thanks AsgardCurse, I will go ahead and do the flash.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Darkyy:
If you want, you can share your opinion about those 2 ROMs.

If you miss something in my ROM, tell me.

If you miss something in webstar1's ROM, tell him.

So we can improve our ROMs even more ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ionutz6:
That's the spirit!!! Please dont get me wrong, I dont have anything against you having your own forum for your ROM, but taking it COMPLETELY out of XDA would feel ungrateful to me. This is what I said some posts ago.

In any case, thanks for your effort!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jodmos:
Ok.

One thing I do like is the forum site, I got completely lost in the xda thread for yours and your site seems to make things neater so will also look at webstars one.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] webstar1:
until the website is up, please Like my facebook page and support me so i know exactly how many people are using my rom, Its Here
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] webstar1:
hey dude, made a mistake, linked ultimate v 4.0, i relinked the correct rom.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jodmos:
Whoa, was just about to flash it - that would have confused me! Off to download again!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] webstar1:
Hehe , sorry about that m8
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] networkn:
Is 5.5 a brand new release or was I asleep? Does it have the kernel with the sound improvements? Perhaps with each new version, in the version history you could put the date of release?

Have you abandoned the idea of a ROM manager build
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ed10000:
5.5 is the version that's been around for quite some time now. Since the 5th of January to be precise.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] teracrypton:
same goes here, force close for gmail application

processcom.google.android.gm error.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] networkn:
So is there an ETA for the MIUI Rom or something else?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] webstar1:
Its done but the arabic version has a few force closes on my phone, will release arabic as beta.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] webstar1:
Rom manager release is temporarily delayed but soon will be up, no worys, v6.5 will have some major improvements.

V5.5 was released quiet a few days ago.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] teracrypton:
OMFG!!! It keep restarting on boot screen... someone help me... its keep on booting Android IMG ... after i apply this rom.

Need assistant.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] webstar1:
Chill, try flashing again from stock
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] bukito1:
Hi boss when you ste going to upload thr new version?. Please could send me your official page and your email??? I want to send a thing
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ionutz6:
v 6.5? What about v6? :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] obie1980:
Fantastic work webstar.

I first flashed to Darkys 7. But have been unhappy since 8 & 8.1 is worse.

I've today installed your 5.5 and so far im really pleased.

Love the blue aspect to the theme.

White notification icons take some getting used to. But I do miss having a battery percentage. Though widgetsoid does the job.

Nice selection of wallpapers. Apparently etc though as usual I spent 30 minutes removing sim tools. And various sammy bloatware.

Speed wise its far faster than expected. Everyone knows darkys rom for speed. And yours seems to be equally as impressive. Not sure how close. But yours is completely lag free for me without any lag fixation applied.

So that's fast enough in my book.

For your next release....

Is a battery % worth considering???

Maybe remove some bloatware......

And if speed, looks, quality is anything to go by im sure it will be another near perfect rom.

Been using it now 4+ hours solid. (Battery stat reset) Numerous apps. Full brightness. Music. Gps. Widow. B/T and still battery is over 50%

Which is far better than the 12% loss in 15 minutes on Darkys.

Again. Well done my friend.

The most complete rom I've used yet.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] webstar1:
Na just add a whole
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] webstar1:
These will be just some of the improvements for v6.5
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] obie1980:
Great stuff. Ill look forward to it.

Do you have a blog/twitter to follow? (Already liked your facebook page)

And sorry to be a pain. But I have two questions...

Firstly. What's the differences between this and the muiu rom.

Secondly. Is there an estimated release for 6.5?/
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] webstar1:
Might release both tommorow. Miui will be the closest thing to miui for galaxy s while maintaining a good battery life and real fast system.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Cloudstripe:
Thanks Webstar1, i'll be looking forward to this. I've tried your ROM before and it function very well. Great job!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] imroking:
Love your work mate eagerly anticipating miui rom :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] webstar1:
Sorry guys, will be released on Wednesday as today Monday nd Tuesday I have exams. Hope u understand.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] CQDOTCOM:
Is the MIUI the real thing or yet another clone?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] AsgardCurse:
Let it take it's time. Release when you think it's ready, and not when we want it(last week, lol).

Good luck with the exams!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] wcg707:
I'm not sure what else webstar1 going to add or improve but whatever it is, it will probably be for the better cause the 5.5 is already better than most of the roms out there.

I'm a fan of Insanity, Hamster and Doc's before running yours. Very good work and not sure what you did, your rom is fast even when there is no lagfix except for the SO default kernel.

Still have 50% battery after 15 hrs of normal usage. This is by far the best battery life I had for the past 2 months of flashing this and that.

Btw, I be releasing my openvpn free access in the next 24 hours to all SGS xda community.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] obie1980:
Wednesday sounds good to me.

Best of luck with your exams.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] cantIntoCode:
It's a clone. Porting real MIUI is like porting CyanogenMod. It takes an insane amount of coding/time.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] bartoszradka:
No worries man.All the best!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] almuhajir:
good work webstar1, inshala you get 100% in exam,

Wednesday is close, we will wait.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] bukito1:
In the instalation text.. which file i must to change the name to use with the recovery? The muii rom or other file?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] webstar1:
Thank u :) and the rest as well for all the support.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mcp2:
Good luck with your exam brother. What launcher is in the rom? Looks like LauncherPro, can I change it?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] webstar1:
No this version has gingerbread launcher but next release will have optimised touchwiz launcher.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mcp2:
Thanks for the quick reply. Is there a way to remove some if the preinstalled apps? Also for the next version can you include the big apn list :-)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Kiralina:
+1, pretty please. I use 666 kernel(on your rom) and with it comes CWM 3.

And if possible no FC when you try to choose input language in gingerbread keyboard.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Kiralina:
It is not real-real as the one for Desire; this is what Webstar wrote on his site

"just so you dont get over excited, i think u are misunderstanding the definition of 'clone' . Clone means it will look just like miui, but it really isnt miui, it will have some of its apps and the theme to look like it but it wont be real MIUI"
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] networkn:
+1 for a better APN list.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mcp2:
Also I cannot activate think free office. Says cannot activate in this hardware
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] webstar1:
Ok guys, all of these improvements are in v6.5
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] networkn:
On your first page, your new features and thanks section have joined together without a heading. (Not a big deal but thought I'd mention it).

Perhaps we could have a list of requests for the new version listed there, and perhaps a version or date beside those accepted to be added to the new version so everyone can keep track.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] AsgardCurse:
Sorry about a stupid question, but ain't it the carrier that auto send the APN needed to be used in their net? Should not be needed to have a "list" in a ROM? Or am I wrong?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] bartoszradka:
Bring it on bro!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] wcg707:
Is it 5.6 or 6.5? One version jump?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] webstar1:
Can anyone be so kind to make a boot animation for Ultimate? i Fail , if anyone can then a simple neon with blue glow would be nice
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] obie1980:
Ill have a dabble tomorrow.

No promises but if I can put together something impressive ill post at your site before this time tomorrow.

Although I like the android sketch animation on 5.5
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ed10000:
I like the 5.5 boot animation too.

I have a couple of changes I'd like to see in the next version:

1) Please don't set loud scary noises anywhere as defaults! Like, when you press a key on the Dialer in 5.5. I installed your ROM at 1 am, and the LOUD noise in the middle of the night sure creeped the hell out of me! :D Also, the shut down animation is nice, but again, TOO loud IMO. I don't even know how to lower it's volume individually.

2) Can you include the Gingerbread keyboard that has working haptic feedback and dictionaries, please?

3) It would be nice if you can thrown in an "optimized" (I really don't know in what way, but I see it in several other ROMs) version of Launcherpro.

Thanks! :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] webstar1:
Sure lol, will add the 'super optimised' launcher pro as a addons.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] webstar1:
, ok see if u can add ultimate rom towards the end of the sketch if u want to keep it.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mcp2:
Here's an idea, what about keeping the Android sketch but it says Ultimate ROM instead of Android along the bottom.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] obie1980:
Im gonna struggle to get this done. My Dads having net problems I gotta sort out and Heavily pregnant wife keeps reminding me of numerous jobs I need to do before baby arrives next week.

But I've contacted GlaDos (boot animation god) and hopefully he can help us out.

Ill keep you informed with any reply I get.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] networkn:
obie: Your priority needs to be your family my friend, don't worry about animation stuff, it's hardly noticeable in the grand scheme of things.

We all wish you and your wife a safe delivery of your newest family member.

Let us know how you guys get on.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] webstar1:
+100000
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] obie1980:
Cheers guys.

Will keep you posted.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] k2009:
great work

dose this rom support Arabic

and congratulation for the new baby ;)

:)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] obie1980:
Back again,

Yes KZ, Webstar said on the last page that the Rom will support Arabic and will (more than likely) be Released tomorrow. (Wednesday)

=================================================

I found a little spare time at lunch so I made an animation afterall.

Heres the Link.

http://www.multiupload.com/8YFIEWPOU1 (OLD VERSION)

**********NEW VERSION***********

http://www.multiupload.com/2DUZVI9HBI

New version is 4.5mb, smoother and loads through quicker.

*******************************

Only a quicky though, (Manual Photoshop adjustment of the original Sketch v2, by Gla'Dos)

So I honestly wont be offended if you ignore/delete/laugh at this.

Here's what it looks like

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zznP8IOVWWw

((Not got Conversion software handy so had to use WMM, Youtube'd it, but the actual animation isnt quite as quick (though FPS can be adjusted via the desc.txt)

Webstar,

As I said mate, perfectly happy if you don't use it, But if you do, please check it first, I havnt had time to check the animation on my phone. But it's all archived as it should be so shouldn't be any problems.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] AsgardCurse:
Obie - that looks cool
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] webstar1:
Thanks will do, using this, but I only promised arabic for miui, and that will also be in beta. But it will be a full arabic rom :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] obie1980:
Great stuff. Sorry I got threads confused.

I tested the boot animation using bootanimation changer and it works (using it now)

6mb. Compared to 4mb (old one)

So takes a few boots to cache before it runs super smooth. But I've rebooted twice and its perfect now.

But if people want a shorter animation ill redo it and remove 30-40% of frames. But just rename to maintain content.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Mepster:
No Mobile Data

Hey, just flashed the rom last night, and i have to say I am really impressed! i have hit a snag though, it appears i have no mobile data...

(yes i have checked the settings, im no noob!)

might also be worth noting i have installed the ext4 lag fix...

any help would be much appreciated!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] obie1980:
Any idea if the Mobile Data was working before the Lag-Fix. ??

It might be worth Flashing fresh and trying without the lag switch.

Or backup using titanium, then doing a full reset, with a fresh flash.

==================================================

I've revised the boot animation, Sorry it had to wait till I'd picked the Twins up from Pre-School.

But this one is 4.5mb, Loads super-quick, runs smoother.

I'd highly recommend this over the original.

I simply removed a few close frames, and 1/3rd of the repeating animation at the end (so it's more of a heartbeat pulse rather than a throbbing pulse.)

I'm pretty pleased with this one.

Tested with bac, and working perfectly

Here's the Linky = http://www.multiupload.com/2DUZVI9HBI

Have you changed the look webstar??

New theme or??

Waiting patiently lol

I dont recall if it was working prior to lagfix, as i was on WIFI the whole time... i have tried a full factory reset using CWM, and disabled the lagfix in CWM... and it still doesnt seem to work.

Im going to try flashing another rom and see what happens, do you know where i can download Stock samsung firmware?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] scott.eden:
Thanks for the rom, running Sweet

Is there any way of setting the dial keypad to the default sound?

I appreciate your hard work and can recommend this Rom works very well.
