works for me.
Can access the main website but the forums are dead...
I can't even get to the main website. Keeping my fingers crossed for an update, perhaps they are simply too incompetent to publish an update without bringing the site down We can always hope can't we?
UPDATE: I can load it now. It's the same as always. It looks like they have temporary network problems, so don't hold your breath for an update
I can't access either the main site or the forums site.
I didn't know they were still working on this UI! Last time I logged on, it was a dead forum except for a few straglers....
i was on there yesterday, now the site won't work for me...
Site is working today, 4/10/08 for me. looks like it should be working for everyone.
No new updates to their program sadly.
Yeah its working, i think they have changes there hostings coz it is loading quite fast now.
okay, it works again... but why should we care anymore... i believed that there would be something new coming, but now it seems that PointUI will share SCLPC's Fate as there has not been a new version out of that one either.
Guess it doesn't pay off to do something for free for the community.
yea this sucks. i want something new and fresh and cool for my phone. Anyone have any ideas on something. I've used iPhone themes before, tried the S2U2 things, used the Cube, used Pointui, used Spb Software. Anyone got any ideas on something cool for our phones????
There is a response from one of the developers today in the Support and Bug fixes forum.....
Forgive the multuple posts.....
PointUI is alive http://www.pointui.com/home.aspx
ans it looks f%^*kin awesome....
Wee. Let's revive. PointUi is dead. Getting nowhere >.> I so want the new pointui it looks slick!
It would just be nice if their forums actually were accessible half of the time... It's usually down it seems.
I searched the forums for anything like this and couldn't find anything so I am starting a new topic.
I came across a new Android game that is under beta testing called Runes-MMORPG and from what I have seen, it looks really neat. They need tons of testers and people that will report bugs in the forums.
You need to register in the main site and register in the forums. Note: They ask for a lot of information like your home address; no SSN though After you register in the main site, they will email you some instructions and a link to download their Runes.apk file.
Here's the link to their site:

I, unfortunately, can't play it myself because I have a TP2 and the Android port for it is still under development, but I still want to know what you guys think.
Let me know!

How long did it take you to write it? Started in April? That's pretty decent time.

I just found out about it like 3 days ago. Too bad I can't try it out any time soon.
watched the video on the site...doesnt seem too exciting anyone play it yet?
I'm registered and downloaded/installed the game a couple of weeks ago, though I haven't really messed with it much.
I found it a tad confusing, so I need to read up on it to better understand what's expected of me.
Anyone else have tips/advice/suggestions?

I very much share the same opinions, Installed it a few weeks ago but stopped playing it for a while because I was a bit confused ons ome aspects..
in the official website last time i checked, FAQ isnt working yet,,
no online manuals/game guide can be found
in the map view, it doesnt show where you currently are..so I cant remember (or maybe im missing something?)
in the spellbook it deosnt clearly say what spells you already have and what you still need to unlock..
i cant explain it that much now, since I stopped playing but the UI seem to take time learning..anwyay, Im not uninstalling yet since this app looks promising..
im in, playing now.. not quite what i was hoping for. going to remove, was hoping will be more 3D action like runescape kinda game.
i beleive it has potential though.
Hello everyone. I want to thank you all for this site, I have learned a great deal here and appreciate all your efforts. I have a question that many new comers have asked and they have been told to go read, so thats what I will do. I want you to know tho that its very hard when you have a baby, and very little time. I also want you to know that the only times I am really productive getting somewhere with my phone is staying up till like 4 am because everyone is asleep and I have the time needed to dedicate to all this reading, trying and learning.
I am not complaining, in fact I am grateful because I am getting somewhere thanks to your help, which has been more valuable than all the help Samsung and Rogers have given me washing their hands clean and leaving me with a defective phone. My problem has not been solved just yet, but I think a 2.2.1 rom will fix my problem. Ill keep reading and trying, ill get there.
I suggest you guys have a wikipage with a table with all the roms, what versions of android they are, what kernels, modems, etc they work with ( or not work with ), bugs, features, something all in 1 page for easy access. This would make it easier for people to access information. The easier it is the more people will use them and come here, the more ideas you will have, the more testers, its a win win situation!
I have been to the pages for all the roms, some of them tell you the bluetooh voice dialing is not working, most don't, id have to go looking for my answer. I have learned that for instance it seems people do not have an issue with it with froyo 2.2.1 but again, some roms tell you in the main page its 2.2.1, others don't.
I can't grasp all the information staying up at night till 4 am. Its the only time I have. I almost had a heat attack when I thought I bricked my phone, I can't afford another one. If all the important information is right there on 1 page, like links to the usb drivers, tools, roms, kernels, everything. Have the instructions to flash. Have a table with all the roms, their versions, what versions of kernels, modems, etc, they do ( or dont ) work with. maybe even some of the table cells are clickable, for instance bugs, click on it and a window pops up with a list of them.
I know all this information is in here somewhere. Thanks to everyone for it, but it needs to be on 1 page. Please make it easier for people who are new to this. You will benefit as well as them. Looking forward to being able to use voice dialing. I think it will be working by tomorrow or after tomorrow thanks to you guys. I could have done it in a day if all the information was right there .
Thanks for reading.
Try searching.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=Samsung_Galaxy_S/SGH-I897
I have that bookmarked. It is also a sticky in this section.
But it doesn't say for instance which ones are 2.2.1, or which ones have the terrible voice dialing over bluetooth..
I do search and end up with over 15 tabs...
I am getting by, I am just saying it could be organized better for everyones benefit. It could be made so someone who has never done this before can get it done in a couple of hours if even, without keeping asking you the same questions here. I understand why people keep asking to recommend a ROM. It is not they they do not search, not all of them anyway. Things can be better organized.
I hear what you're saying, I think it's just that within the course of a month, about 20 ROM's have been released, if not more. And no one has had time to update the wiki.

The thing is that its not just the number of ROMs, but also the number of versions that are released. It would be a real pain and an added overhead for anyone maintaining it.
Also note that most devs are working too, and doing this in their free time. The little time they have to spare is taken up for making improvements. But they do release changelogs to look into.
If anyone has time, I would suggest they take it up to create a wiki and maintain it, rather than relying or asking the devs to do it.
Try capfaq.com it has a ROM table section, and I've used it alot.
Same issues with being 100% up to date, but it's the best Rom table format I've seen.

Looks like they have updated it!
Thanks guys, I will check that table out tomorrow.
It'd be nice if there was a modem chart as well. I know there are modems in the modem thread
forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=835272
...but near as I can tell it's not up to date, or at least the first page is not up to date (ie base Cognition runs on JL1 and Andromeda on JL2, but aren't on the first page).
If anyone knows a good and current modem reference guide, please let me know.
I can't complain too much because obviously things change all the time and it's a PITA to constantly update info...I'd volunteer but I got a 2 year old and baby 2.0 due in April.

Yeah it's like Richter Scale difference at least 0 to 1, and 1 to 2 kids...people that have more than 2 are either really bad at birth control, Catholic, or gluttons for punishment.

How? What happened?
I have no Idea what I did wrong, my goal before I started was getting voice dial over bluetooth working for me, its essential to me. It started with trying to install paragon, as per http://www.capfaq.com/w/ROM_Table mentioned above.
I was stock rogers 2.2 so I wiped it clean, and tried the update thing, it didnt work. The only step I skipped was flash to stock and the master clear since it was 2.2 recently and I did the factory wipe. It did not work but I did not brick anything just yet. I figured most people tell you to flash with the one click odin which puts stock at&t on it. I did that and the phone stopped going into download and recovery, it did not stop completely i have gone into download and recovery a few times after that but it was a battle with my phone, since it was booting, I used adt instead which worked like a charm. at&t rom was not happy on my phone, it was going into at&t reboot loops where it would just reboot the bios over and over. after trying and trying it would boot android, i was trying to fix it but each time it restarted the reboot loop would kick off. I could not go to recovery or download mode till i finally got back into the OS and used adt to tell it to go to download mode where i reflashed my stock rogers.
My phone now had at&t logo on boot before rogers, which is not that bad but i had read you can get rid of it, i tried going into download mode with the buttons but didnt try too hard, adt was easier.
I was following these instructions :
http://www.mmacleod.ca/blog/2011/01/removing-the-att-boot-screen-from-a-samsung-captivate/
it wanted me to use odin to flash a file. I used my oden 1.3, i think he says oden 1.0, I didn't think it would make a difference.
Odin started to flash and said fail. I got the screen with "android ! computer", I have been there before when I first ever tried using odin and had to fight with my phone to get to download mode at the time ( this was before at&t ever came close to the phone, i never used odin before so i probably had trouble because of inexperience ).
anyway, this time no matter what I do I cannot go to download mode, I plan on making a jig today if i find someone who sells resistors in this little town.
any help would be appreciated. I dont want to put any more roms on my phone, i just want it to work. I am worried. Ill wait till samsung releases 2.2.1 I just want my phone back to the way it was when I bought it
As the person who write most of the documentation for Team Komin (the developers who make Andromeda), I would say this would be an immense pain. copying all of our information from the website, formatting it into wiki form and then posting it would be very time consuming.

True, but once done, it would be much easier to maintain and navigate. There is going to be a lot of crossposting and people asking for insight and advice.
I'm sure we all understand the search feature in the forum, but to be honest things change topic within a thread, and where someone asks a question that is somewhat unrelated and gets a very good answer, it is not always apparent by poking through page after page of posts to find that nugget of gold. I mean, searching for 'kernel' will give literally thousands of hits. A wiki would be much better in terms of 1. Where you are starting out from 2. what you need to do what you want 3. where to find these things, and 4. maintaining updates and version revisions.
I really appreciate all the work people do here, and I have had to find everything I wanted to know the 'hard' way, but as Android grows in popularity and market percentage, more and more people are going to come here looking for this information. Pobably better to do it sooner than later.
I'm asking anyone and everyone for help in finding the Galaxy Note GT-N7000 splash screen and the Samsung Splash Screen for use as my background/wallpaper. What I'm seeking are the first 2 screens when you boot the Note, I'll attach a couple of pix taken from another phone as my Note was booting.
I haven't rooted my Note, I'm waiting for ICS, as I have with every Android device I've owned so I don't have access to the boot animation images. What I have found are files with a .qmg extension and I don't know what app is use to open and extract the images I need.
If anyone already has them could you please consider sharing them, otherwise I'm willing to"donate" to get the highest quality image. I'm also going to attach the.qmg files I downloaded from the General discussion forum if that could aid someone willing to take the time to help me out.
For some reason I can't attach files - I need to find out why, I'm sorry for that. However ,I did find a web site those shows both of the screens I'm after very clearly. Please head over to this address to get a good look at them.

Thank you in advance!

i"m searching for the exact same thing....would like to have it too!!
Things that go BUMP in the Night!
Bump me please!
Here's the first bit:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=22745293&postcount=21
Finally, Thank You, thank you, thank you!
First of all - Thank You! I to had finally found a couple of images after searching each and every day with every variable I could possibly think of since I received my Galaxy Note last November. Literally, I searched each and every day for hours at a time.
Dayum I can't thank you enough!
I finally came across an image of the GT-N7000 on the day you posted this, although I didn't even think to come back here and check out if somebody had finally gotten into the system files. The image(s) you posted are the **** - incredible quality - thanks man.
I made up a couple of backgrounds with the image I found but the quality isn't as perfect as these. I'd say the image I found is about 85% of the quality when compared to those you pulled.
JLG1985
btw: I did search,, but I did not find exactly what I'm looking for. Maybe i wasn't putting the right search phrase in the search bar, but what I wanted just did not come up.
I have finally got my phone (Samsung Galaxy S2 I727) rooted, and started looking around for a Rom, I have found a lot of Roms available, however less than 10% of those have screenshots. Out of the ones that do have screenshots, a good 65%-75% of those screenshots, are of the black "Settinngs" page, and do not actually show the Rom. I hate to complain, because I know the devs have worked so hard making these roms, and they deserve to be thanked, and not fussed at. But, do they not think that people might want to see what they are downloading before they dowload it? I have found about 10 Roms with screenshots of the desktop, and icons, which is what I want to see. If I'm going to live with this, I want to like what I get. I have a very limited download amount, I can't just start downloading everything until I find something I like, I have to find what I like then download only that one thing.
I know there is one thread here on XDA that has some screenshots, http://forum.xda-developers.com/s2-skyrocket#romList But, that is almost the only place I have found. I want to see the desktop, the background, the icons, the app drawer icons, a shot of a settings page is fine, but I want to see the visual effects. Is there anywhere else that you know of that I can find screenshots. I found one I could live with, but I would almost rather stay on stock than waste my download on something I'm not 100% happy with.
I do appreciate all the hard work the devs do, I would just like to be able to see and admire their work.
Did you try to search in youtube? Most devs upload detailed demos with all information you asked for

i agree with amirTor most of the time you should look on you tube for reviews of the ROM, it can be frustrating but its their choice, sometimes its not necessary to put up pictures.
Ok if thats where they want to put them thats fine. I had no idea thats what they did. Thats not going to help me much youtube counts against my download. Oh well. Thanks for the info.
