it would be nice if you release first your custom rom. For sure many will not help you because of the assurance that maybe your just lying to us.
well this is just my opinion.
Yeah, great, let's each one will create a similar theme, give empty promises and wait for this money)
Hi,
First of all: Thank you for engagement.
But: if we want to help every developer, who wants to buy an Ace for starting develooment, we would get poor. Also Darkyy wanted to have some money for an Ace to start development of Darky ROM. So, please din't missunderstand me, but it's lot of money for a ROM, noone knows how it'll be and if it's as good as told before.
But if I see, the ROM will be good, I'll definetly donate some money to you.
So: I hope to see another good ROM for Ace.

100% agree with you.
First, make a good ROM, then ask for money.
You cant ask money for release of ROM(no offence) but when u release the ROM, the Money will obviously pour into ur account and there are many ways to earn from ur ROM. U can Monetize ur link, so that every time ppl download from ur link u get some money.
I c there are more than 130+ Ace users according to poll and many are pouring in daily.

Im also excited to hear that they r making the ICS available too. Hope can see ICS roms soon. Really appriciate what u guys been doing. Million thanks.
Sending from: Singapore (Asia)
Phone: Samsung Vibrant
Previous ROM: Team Toxic "Crazy8" "Froyo Gone Crazy on Ginger-looking forward to D9
Current ROM: MIUI-NB 2.3.7 (Build 2)***like this a lot. wanna try Build 3 though
Kernel: Bali-CM_v2.2.2 **perfect match
Same here, been flashing these awesome roms for about a year now. The devs have really done an awesome job and extended this phone's life way more than samsung could have imagined. THANKS!
Hell yeh, pretty cool of them to selflessly post them for our misuse
vibrant would be pretty bad without em

I need "TESTER'S" {Closed}

Hey Guys,
I am going to get start on making a Rom for this thing and just would like to know if any could help with test of the rom or Kernel development. But mainly Testing.
You must have a good understanding on flashing and use of the device..
Please no "NOOBs" no offense but at this staging i'm not look to tell someone every single thing to do but I dont mind helping you understand what you don't know.
If you would like to help me get this out to everyone send me an email at [email protected] or pm me.
Thanks for every that responded to my request.. I Have some testers now and well have something out soon hopefully if all goes well..
Thank you
ACS Prime...... sweet

Thanks man just waiting on the official build of ICS to update that leak is horrible I barely get 5 hours out of my battery
and send an email because ill forget to check here
I still use SyndicateRom Frozen on my Epic 4G. Best ROM I've ever used, can't wait to see what you guys come up with for the Prime!
I would test depending on what exactly the rom is gonna be. If it is just themed/tweaked a bit i'll have to pass. If it is actual development i would JUMP at the chance to help you out! I have owned over 20 android devices so experience is not a problem.
Im in I have beta tested on the original Transformer and several other android phones, would love to help as I dont know how to program and would like to give back to the community!!!!!
I'm in for testing, I have a flashing addiction, and am always looking for the latest and greatest.

not sure what you mean but if your taking about an AOSP then no... just tweaks and mods.. i dont have to set up at work for that

[REQUEST][PLEASE]Convincing @corsicanu to continue AryaMod Note7 Port V2.1 dev for A5

@corsicanu suddenly stops developing of the AOD included AryaMod Note7 Port ROM because of some complaining people who can't wait some hours and keep nagging.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/samsung-a-series/development/rom-aryamod-note7-port-v2-1-t3536186
Please, for the people it matters, convince him to continue developing!
He's not lazy to update his ROM and work out solving bugs, he always help!
The ROM is full of great Note 7 functions and he's trying to make it possible and create a bugless ROM, which is STABLE as now!!
Please, XDA members, convince him to come back and resume this great ROM!!!
Well, i dont blame him, not at all.
I myself am no dev, though have learned a lot here through reading, and that is exactly what people ARE NOT DOING, reading. Especially the A Series has a lot of members that dont bother thinking, it takes more time to ask a question rather then just have a search and see if people have asked something similar to you.
Long story short, a lot of members have 0 knowledge, 0 tolerance and 0 patience, but have HIGH expectations. This place is for twiddlers, not for people who want something changed and then disappear.
Remember, people do this for free, 100% out of pure will. Some may see it as a challenge, and some want to help. Even the one who may want donations, 95% of the A Series users are from developing countries, so most of the users here cannot afford to donate, and donations are very important if you want people like corsicanu around.
Me too he has real proplems in real life so he works in free time but everyone is asking for ETAs but he not A ROBOT see this different!!!!!!
@PlutoDelic, @huseein A5 that's known, The thing is, there are people who shouldn't be allowed to post or reply. That's all. He was working on the ROM for free, in freetime. Because of the freshly registered bastards who come here straight after buy their first Samsung phones.

I guess, in this case it wasn't because of time. Because of the users. However, it's well known that developing is a really long process and takes time.
But I wish he could send the deleted link to download the latest version or don't you have it @huseein A5? I was downloading the root files when he deleted them and closed the tread.
I'm truly disappointed @corsicanu!

If you do that i will report you and you will get banned. You are the cause that i left. You gave me wrong files 2 TIMES IN A ROW. You didn't stopped with spaming that you want a5h kernel, that you need to learn, that you want to be like me. I struggled years to learn what i know now and you keep spaming me, my work, my threads, my users.. Ok if that is what you want, develop by yourself, because you don't know to have patience, understanding and apreciation.

Do not install or use anything from hussein as he kang my work MANY TIMES. It's only my choice to retract all the files since i worked for nothing. And no, i don't want donations. I did all the things because i wanted to make the difference but like i said earlier, this community doesn't deserve anything. Like my friend said in the second post, most of the users have small amount of knowledge and big amount of disrespect and requests. I made the most stable rom in this subforum and the only thing that i got were requests of N7 camera and Google assistant. If that so, thanks but no thanks.
Just my 2 cents.

@corsicanu is damn right, most of the people act like they are f*cking apes. Leave us do our job, we all have life and sh*t to do! Nothing in this world is perfect, or else to make something good and almost perfect it needs time! Don't act like hungry dogs against the devs, we are doing all our best if you don't like what we do then JUST F*CKING TRY DO IT YA OWN SELF
See I will not upload it and I will delete it from my device if that makes you happy

I can't even imagine how Google assistant COULD take place in a Marshmallow Touchwiz ROM and of course you're not expected to do the impossible, LOL.
Has anybody seen Assistant in ANY TW-based ROM? Miserable.
On the other hand, yeah, I was thinking about if he might modified some files in it and anyway he couldn't upload and re-use it without your permission.
But you didn't work for nothing. See, loads of us were testing and reporting bugs and the team work was complete.
But the whole thing is over because of some users, who can't see a difference between F and H...
Hope you give us one more chance.
@corsicanu i feel like you when I used a kitchen to re write updater script and everyone was laughing on me I'm just like you do development stuff at free time and make what's your want

For what one more chance? Read the last 4 pages on the rom or last 2 pages on the kernel.. Not to mention the group on Telegram where the bugs were "why do i hear ringtone on headphones?". You will convince yourself that it doesn't worth it. I will think about it next days but don't get anxious as i'm very dissapointed. Thanks.

No you don't develop stuff. If you develop why don't you port the rom on your own? Why don't you make a kernel? You need to learn much more than "put libril.so in system and set 644 permission"...

For what one more chance? Read the last 4 pages on the rom or last 2 pages on the kernel.. Not to mention the group on Telegram where the bugs were "why do i hear ringtone on headphones?". You will convince yourself that it doesn't worth it. I will think about it next days but don't get anxious as i'm very dissapointed. Thanks.

No you don't develop stuff. If you develop why don't you port the rom on your own? Why don't you make a kernel? You need to learn much more than "put libril.so in system and set 644 permission"...

I'm not gonna be anxious, I totally understand you. I'm not in the Telegram group, though, but it must be full of stupid questions then...
Some people just doesn't deserve an answer. Piss them off, a lot of users can't open developer settings, either.
Anyways, keep it up and we're waiting if you may come back!

[Discussion] State of the Grand 2 - What we were and what are we now

A little about myself and the ethos I have to talk
I am Waseem Alkurdi, developer and owner of a Grand 2 since July 2014, and one of the earliest contributors to the community (Does anybody remember The Ultimate S5 Mod or MicroKat?).
I have a little mission to complete before taking my Grand 2 out of active service as a daily driver (NOT GOING TO DESERT IT THOUGH, EVER) which is building every next Android version from AOSP/CM (Lineage) sources (starting from Android O until the last version of Android that boots on 1.5 GB of RAM) and porting something significant to this beaut (I'm talking about OEM ROMs, but tips are welcome!)
What the Grand 2 was one day
The Grand 2 was the utopia of an Android device community turned real.
The community was rolling out ROM after ROM, mod after mod, and everybody was excited ...
First, @balliboxer rolled out the first TouchWiz (Android 4.3-based) rooted ROM for the device, and that was May 2014 if I remember. It was the first victory for the community, as everybody thought that the device could never see root because of the Qualcomm SecureBoot technology, which apparently got everybody thinking about a locked bootloader, which was not the case. (If anybody has a Grand 2 on 4.3, boot into Download Mode and you'll see what I mean: QUALCOMM SECUREBOOT: ENABLED in blue letters).
Then came the official KitKat update: Of the most important changes was that the dreaded QUALCOMM SECUREBOOT:ENABLED line was replaced with a red UDC:START in red letters). Does that mean that technology was disabled? Only God knows.
With the KitKat update came GenNxt, another ROM by @balliboxer, and one of my first projects, the Ultimate S5 Mod. The mod exploited the S5 code hidden under the stock ROM to "transform" the device into an S5 look-alike.
But my mod has lost the limelight when @balliboxer and @aapav01 came out with the S5 mini port ROM. The ROM was not a lookalike, it was the real deal, and was a hit to Samsung itself and their corporate policy of not updating the UI design of older devices.
Then came the 4.4.4 port from the S3 Neo, another device with the same SoC as the Grand 2. It hadn't received much attention though, as the S5 mini port took it all.
At about the same time, I released MicroKat, a barebones ROM based on stock. It has received some attention from people whom I call "purists", those who like everything pure without the garbage that sticks to stuff at times, and from people who wanted the most performance of their devices.
Later on, a stream of ROMs came: A bombshell of 4.4.4 CyanogenMod 11, CyanognenMod 12 by @mukulsoni, another S5 mini port, this time using Lollipop TouchWiz, and CyanogenMod 13, and later, 14, by @adityaupreti, ResurrectionRemix M by @buggatty, and some Nougat ROMs by @SoUnd001, among more. With each ROM came a surprise.
Where the Grand 2 stands today
We, folks, have passed the climax of the story of our Grand 2. Way long ago, to be honest. We have hit the climax in those ol' times when the team of contributors ported ROM after ROM, when Android Lollipop from source was nothing to this community, and when the Lollipop port from the S5 Mini was being downloaded like nothing the Internet has ever seen
Folks, this device is officially dead.
But is the Snapdragon 400 SoC archaically old?
Heck, no!
Is 1.5 GB of RAM dead?
Heck, no!
What killed the Grand 2 is nothing but the childish bickering of the community.
Yep, the whole community, myself included.
When the same generous developers of our community and all of XDA turn into selfish, egoistic bullies, because of their impatience with some kids, yeah, kids, babies, children who have not been taught respect by their families, who are equally rude, that's what we get, the current state of the Grand 2.
I am not referring to one incident, but to a collective of incidents.
What is supposed to happen
Quite nothing could be done.
Well, quite nothing could be done to a community which has brought itself down.
Speaking for myself, I will aim at my goals, listed above, no matter what. But for other developers, all of which are of higher order than I am, please give this community a second chance.
I have a word for them (especially @adityaupret i
The Grand 2 community is at risk of collapsing prematurely. One hand cannot clap, as we Arabs say. However, all of our hands can work together for the prosperity of the community. Do you want to save this community?

Another one!
SoUnd001 is still active as he said earlier(but he deleted his recent TW MM port so i rather doubt it), i am trying to make MIUI 8. Another friend of mine is working on FlymeOS.
Other than that there are no projects/devs active. If i succeed with MIUI & my friend also succeed with FlymeOS then we will work on more projects and try to keep the developement alive.
Are you also working on any project???

@WaseemAlkurdi bro Glad to see you after long Time.... i dont know whether u remember me or not but i remember u from the effort u took for CM11....
We still expecting u to return to development..... Aditya Upreti will be always be helpful for our Device as my knowledge is concerned...(may be its false) .....
Once upon a time balliboxer ruled Grand 2 and then aapav ruled and then aditya ruled and now its dethroned... its set as free for someone whom we r waiting to enthrone to rule Grand 2 Developments back....

First, I do remember you ... It's indeed a pleasure to hear from you after all that time ...
Well, as far as I could see, Aditya and @SoUnd001 have announced that they'll desert the Grand 2 (on the ResurrectionRemix Nougat thread), with threats of using the moderators for "policing" of the community, effectively installing (politically not technically here) themselves as absolute monarchs, waving their device trees, as if it was only them who had the intelligence and skill of learning the craft ...
But they are indeed justified and I do agree with them, as some users are indeed rude ...
Have they stepped back from their decision?
I hope they do.
Edit: RR Nougat is back online.

It is great to know that there's some hope left ... Wish you and your friends the best of luck!
@SoUnd001, as it seems, is out of the scene for the time being.
As for myself, I am a Grade 12 student, and I have halted almost all electronic activity until I finish my secondary education exams (like the IGCSE, but my country's flavor).
However, I intend to start building a multitude of ROMs (mostly AOSP-based) from source starting June-July 2017.
Well G2 was having some Awesome Roms and Ports !
When Aapav ported TW LL from S5 Mini then Whole G2 Development loved that ROM.....all were crazy abt it ! As Samsung left G2 to die alone !
But after some time Aapav left G2 becoz of people ! And then Aditya and Sound were left on G2....They made cool rom to make G2 Live more ! Aditya Booted first Android N Rom on G2 and TW MM on G2 ! And then Aditya and Sound both made RR N....but again people spam bug bug bug.....NO Voice...how can I use...and soo on ! Soo they both decided to left Development ! But after a While....more longer....They came back with First ALPHA Release of TW MM.....And it was srsly the Best rom for G2 as it was TW MM which Samsung would never even thought that it will be Booted ! But due to some problems the Thread was closed.....but still I can hope that Aditya and Sound will again Release TW MM if they think that It is Fully STABLE to get it Released !
G2 lived a Very long Life !
And we shld thank all the Developers for that....Just Thank them not Spam them !
Regards @bravoInc
Can anybody please tell me what "skills" I require if I'm to start with this so called "Android Development"? (building thingies from source). It'd be really helpful.
great

Generally, you will need:
A computer running Linux, preferably Ubuntu
Knowledge on Linux (just some terminal-friendliness, no need for really deep knowledge)
Knowledge about Android; pretend to be a doctor or your ol' mechanic and carefully dissect the stock ROM or any other ROM to get that)
Lack of terminalphobia is absolutely essential, as the whole Android build process is in the terminal.
Debugging interfaces shipped with Android (logcat, dmesg, and the whole lot)
Being generally tech-savvy (not running to others for help, but learning by trial and error, knowing how to wisely use Google, and knowing how to multiboot Windows, Linux, and Mac OS is generally proof of that)
Edit: Forgot a knowledge of a) programming (recommended, not obligatory) and b) Git and source control.
Worse news guys. SoUnd001 left Grand 2 & moved on to J5 developement. He even deleted his device tree. He and aditya got some problems thats why he left
So in my opinion we must setup a device tree if developement has to be continued. @Hammerhead2502 @WaseemAlkurdi & all other people willing to join hands to keep the developement alive please do something :'(

For me, and once again, I will be fully dedicated as of Jun.-Jul. 2017, not a day before that.
And although what SoUnd001 did of removal of trees was rude and unethical in open-source community terms, it is totally his right as his own effort and mental work. Being his right though, does not justify the action, and again, he is not the only one with the mental ability and skill needed to start building Android.

Yes i agree he has rights to delete and all. I don't blame him. But as usual Grand 2's developement is the one to bare the consequences of aditya & SoUnd's fight.
So in my opinion the first step should be setting up a device tree.

The reality is that Nougat Trees are now Deleted !
Move on to Another Device if u want new Roms and all !
