Database Develop

S-off discussion

Starting this thread for any discussion of the s-off tool in development or s-off talk in general. Hopefully this will help keep the development thread clear of chatter.

Good idea, I wish there was more of this on XDA.
Perhaps if for each development project there was a dedicated thread for chatter, expressions of thanks, etc people would feel more comfortable using it.
Development threads might not grow to thousands of entries, with almost 0% of the entries actually about development.
I'm new here, post count is very low - but my posting habits won't change when I eventually get to 10 posts - unless I do get around to actually doing some Android development I can't see a reason for posting in the dev area.
I guess though that some dev's may prefer it the way it is, as a sign of recognition, or something...

thank you for doing this, i was just thinking the same thing

Yay we can yap! ..lol.. is it done yet? Jk..i hope we get it soon. I hate being left behind on GB cuz of my non-upgraded bootloader..

Honestly you are not missing much imo. GB was so damn efficient I don't see a huge revolutionary change. ICS is very smooth and fast with the help of the developers many to be named I don't want to leave anyone out. But don't feel like you're so far behind bc you are not. Only recently has there been a few more roms to try out.

will s-off make it say easier to get ASOP type roms on to this phone?

Not necessarily, but it will work for all devices (vivid, holiday, velocity) with no porting and wou will be able to flash everything right from your phone, no computer needed.

Having s-off has its advantages. Having being part of the beta I can tell its great.
The best for it is being really for developing New Roms and aosp. Makes a lot less of a hassle to flash New kernels and firmware.
I'm sure we won't have to wait much longer for the beta to be over, its a fairly simple process but they have to make sure its foolproof so we don't have a lot of bricks like we suffered with the ota release that happened.

if becomes S-off, then I would like to try porting sense 4.0..

Sense 4.0 port would be great. From the devs I spoke with the radio is their issue also. Seems everything is hanging on cracking that issue

yeah i'm hoping for a hTC One X port that way i don't have to run out and get the One X when its released here in Canada and be stuck with the low 16GB and non expandable memory.
I mean who comes up with these ideas to ofter 16GB for the LTE version yet the Internationale has 32GB.
Anyways getting off topic S-Off WOOOT

I also know it. but It's not perfect yet. I would like to make a more complete..

Bananacakes love your holiraider Rom and I could see you doing some great things with sense 4.0. You should lurk the irc channels a bit. Seems like the easiest way to get any news about s-off is just hanging out in the channel. I was really lucky to be there at the right time and got it. Don't bug them but mention your a dev and you'd like to be able to work on ics builds but you have a raider.

uhmmm, but I don't know sure how I gets a s-off..
and I would like feedback on that issue but i don't know English well enough to give appropriate feedback.. So I figured the sensible thing to do was to wait..
Am I understanding the situation correctly?

Ressurection Remix Jb and others.. interested?

Hi everybody.. im from the xperia x10 forums... and i really really wanna get this device but since i have to wait like a year for the T i thought i could maybe make somehting for this community!
I was wndering if anybody would be interested in this rom... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1436854
If people are interested in this i would need osmeone who has the device to test it for me (pm me)
If you wnat to see some new ports then i am willing to work here
if this isnt supposed to be here please delte
:highfive:

Yes Please. Not sure if I can help you test as I am a heavy business user, but if I can I will.

I would wait till FXP 148 when more or less everything on the T will be fully fixed then ask champ for permission to use KXP and give a few tests?
When I eventually get my BL unlocked (I will eventually!) I'll test and continue my roms from Xperia Neo too

To be honest, and as tila acknowledges above, I think we're all better off if you want to tackle it mcsquizzys98. Having too many ROM's under one dev tends to lead to burn out etc... nothing personal tila, I love your products so far, but the more the merrier in this case!

I still wish there's an ICS build for this device. JB is great but for compatibilities sake of older apps which aren't maintained anymore I also want an ICS or GB build or both

Well I guess you'll be out of luck for all new phones in that case. I'm not even sure there are drivers for ICS available for the APQ8064. Qualcomm had it running on their reference platform quite a while ago, but all devices with an APQ8064 were brought to market with Jelly Bean.

So because you've got apps that you can't be bothered replacing, that aren't maintained any more because the devs can't be bothered... you expect sony to release a totally different OS for their phone? Or, how about you just find replacement apps, or pester the lazy devs into updating. This is totally not an issue from Sony,.,,, just lazy app devs.

I did say I only wished for it. Never demanded or at the very least ask for it so no biggie with that. Also you can't bother any dev who decided to discontinue support for their apps so yeah pretty much either getting newer alternatives or live without those apps. Some of the noteable apps I was saying was the chainfire 3d and flash player. So good luck bothering adobe for asking to continue flash for jellybean and about chainfire? There are hundreds of android users who asked him to make chainfire 3d work for ICS and above but he said it's just too hard or worse not possible and most of all you can't say they're lazy devs.

CM 10.1?

So I'm just curious, is there anyone taking on the Cyanogenmod 10.1 task for the HTC First? I'm not seeing a lot about it and just wanted to ask. Thanks!

I second this. I would happily support this effort via guinea pigging and beer money.

I second this as well. Thanks for bringing this up.

We've got at least one phenomenal dev (Jmz) working on this phone, so I would expect to see CM at some point. The kernel was just released, and prior to that, there wasn't much that could be done other than the stock rom. Despite that, he gave us Sense 4+. I don't want to speak for him, and certainly voicing a request is the best way to show interest, but I'd say be patient.
All that said, I cannot wait for CM!

Partially I agree, but partially I don't. He said in the thread for his Sense 4+ ROM that he's currently working on another big app project and that he doesn't have the First as a priority. That's what I gathered at least, but I'm still thankful there's something out there and that he's put the time in

NexSense ROM General Discussion

Since the DEV-ONLY thread was getting OT and Noob questions, I thought I'd make this thread to take all that away from that thread and leave the devs to their work. So ask anything here about it until Galaxyuser creates a ROM thread. I'll be happy to answer questions as well.
If you would like some instructions on how to flash this ROM with MultiROM, here is a video made by Gavin96 that will walk you through step by step on how to do so.

And also, if you already have the ROM up and running, here is a little treat for Xposed users. Thank jonata in that post.

Yeah, i could tell people were getting irritated. Hopefully this will help the development of the ROM go a little faster. I didn't think I'd ever like anything other than stock Android but I'm liking Sense 6.

Sense looks better to me on the Nexus 5 than it does on an HTC phone.

Any idea till when it will get stable release, how much bugs are left for fix

There's quite a bit of work they need to do. The main one is sound and mic I think. Since we can't make phone calls without it. Until thats fixed, it can't be a daily driver unless you never take calls. Other things like the camera and certain sensors and NFC need to be fixed but can go without if needed.

Ok but i have heard that it breaks few sensors of many users and testers

That's going to be one heck of an undertaking although one may be able to cheat the sensors by using our libs and renaming them to match htc's version. I don't know how this guys doing his porting though.

I never thought there was such a big sense following among nexus users. I prefer pure Android myself but I'm interested in seeing if they can actually make a decent port with everything working so I can give it a whirl. Hats off to the devs I'm sure its not going to be easy.

Well one of the best things that the Nexus 5 has is MultiROM. Thanks to that, I have both sense and stock on my device. Best of both worlds.

Thanks for you thread it's really helpful for me

I'm impressed with how far it has gone already. Sure, no audio, nfc, or sensors, but the fact the RIL and Wifi work is enough to at least play around with for more than a few minutes. It actually runs really well for having very few bug fixes.
