Form a dev team to bring AOSP to the Galaxy R? - Samsung Galaxy R i9103

Hi! I noticed there are a few people working on custom stuff for the Galaxy R. I am personally very interested in getting AOSP or CM for it. I'm a former Gentoo Linux dev, so I have a bit of somewhat related experience.
I would like to propose to form a team to work together and share our findings, resources and efforts, to produce an AOSP-based ROM for our beloved Galaxy R.
Who is with me?

Some resources of interest:
ardatdat kernel
stock Samsung roms
InfectedRom - first custom rom
internal specs

I've had a PM from cocoa7 who is interested in helping. I'm hoping others will join as well.

Don't know a lot about developing but I can be a tester if need be.
Sent from my GT-I9103 using XDA App

If you want then count me in and you can see my work in theming, mods and roms and I can help you in building Rome and making themes

I'll be happy to test, I'm wanting to learn more about ROM dev as well

yo!
Hope that my kernel could be compatible with the AOSP ROM

Based on AOSP experience with my Galaxy Ace , it won't work .

The best kernel to possibly be inspired from is one from the Optimus 2x forum
It's one of the most complete and amazing features.
Check it out
[CM7/MIUI Kernel][KANG] CM7 Kang kernel included cherry picks
Which in turn is inspired from
[KERNEL][CM7][JAN19h15] ironkrnL -- vork's bastard stepson
and
[Kernel]G2x-CM7[2.6.32.51] (v0.4.8)OC~1.55GHz/UV/SLQB/BFQ/ZRAM/Voodoo
Both of which are amazing Kernels. Just visit these threads and you'll know
The Optimus 2x/G2x has similar hardware and Tegra 2 chipset as in our Galaxy R.

if anyone is interested to try my custom rom based on zskk5 then kindly send me a pm

Anyone help please , I'm getting "no rule to make libaudio.so" error
Herpderp Adreno + Tegra.

I'm currently enjoying my holidays (Chinese New Year). As soon as I have a little more time, I will try to get some things organized. Stay tuned!

- Grab a stock file
- Extract it
- Mod it with dsixda's Android Kitchen
- Release it as your own ROM

What about starting an IRC channel on freenode?

Yes...Modding with kitchen, erasing some bloatware...That's the way to get IMO "nicer" stock. I don't mean to diminish anybody's future achievements (and I'm not talking about any special rom here) but I think it's not enough to call it custom rom. Technically it is but practically It will still be stock, the same performance, just with modified appearance.

It wasn't me who was asking hehehe, just commenting your post with no intention of criticizing. It is certainly the easiest way to "create a custom rom"
Cheers and good luck with your work!

thanks................. but i know all of this i want basic tutorials .........any source to find it thanks in advance................

Seconded. I'd have a lot more progress / motivation if we had a channel. I've tried the cyanogen mod dev one before but it was incredibly quiet.

Asad! I know this is not the right thread to ask, but this is a humble request from me and i m sure from all the other fit users too...that can you please make us a nice stable overclocked Kernel!
From past couple of months, we are just porting rom from other devices, there's just few development which originally belongs to FIT.
Even the Mini has got now 1.3 GHz Kernel (i have read somewhere)....... we have now, quite a number of roms for fit, performance of the phone is best enhanced by the Kernels.
You are a Senior Dev of This forums, I am sure you and other Devs can come together to make a Good kernel as a team.
If we got a good OC kernel for our fit, then i am sure that even on cm7 our phone's performance will become equivalent to High end Android Devices !

Sorry for that.. .. I read that in some galaxy Ace forums, that mini users has got 1.3 GHz working kernel !
Just searched and found that, they have a maximum of 868 MHz processor with voltage modules !
Well, i was just taking a reference .......consider that as a a mistake....
And please, do consider that request, which was made in earlier post !
and as i said earlier .... "whatever you need we are ready to help"
you serious about 1.3GHz?
---------- Post added at 06:49 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:47 PM ----------
nvm i didnt read the bottom part.
you should test the rom before you post atleast tell some people to test it for you before posting here and replacing the CM9 framework in cm7 will NEVER work you need to port and resize images in cm7 framework itself
Sorry to iterpt in between but this not gone gonna work in any case if you use cm9 framework in cm7.
And guys overclocking yoir device to 1.3 Ghz would just make it a paperweight. That's too much for an ldpi device.

Your help is appreciated...

Guys finally I have enough knowledge to start developing...at least gonna try...
So,
I wanna develope a CM based ROM...
So anyone will help me?..
like teaching some things, or sharing their resources (kernel or theme etc..)
I have already started working....
As for cm based roms, you actually can't do much (since its a custom rom by itself)...
So for starters, select a suitable base cm, and just try changing the ui, experiment with tweaks and scripts, find better combinations for good performance...etc...
More than enough to keep you busy for atleast a week...

Hi :) T-Mobile gave me this phone for free.

Hi guys im new to XDA but not new to Android development i used to have Cricket service (which sucked) and signed with T-Mobile and got this phone for free After spending all week reading all these threads i can say im one of the lucky ones since i got the good chip and good screen and rooted my phone and im running Sysnthetic_Aospx great rom btw. Any other good roms that i should try? Anywho im rooted and this isnt another "which rom is better" im actually a developer and i want to get my hands dirty and try and compile kernels any guides out there for me to start compiling and building my kernel environment?
I know my way around developing roms and wanted to know what developers develop for this device im willing to give you guys a hand if u need it or just be a tester.
Btw my name is Mr. Iffy ill try to help when i can hopefully one of the devs can help me with an Ice cream kernel to develop for this device. If someone can also tell me what devs are here i only see like 4 of them Synthetic and elginsk8r and awesome and cnote. Thanks guys hopefully i can be more of help around here.
Welcome! It's great to have another dev among us. Unfortunately, we have lost many of our devs to other devices, but a few talented ones remain. Hopefully you and the remaining devs will be able to bring a fully functional ICS Sense ROM to our little community.
Again, welcome!

Kernels are difficult, i dont really know enoguh to teach you but there are plenty of guides. It tooks me 3 hours to compile 10% of a kernel and the process failed due to one of the files. We should collarborate.

Why that is bad? In my opinion it is better, so everyone can use whatever he wants, that is the meaning of open source.
Ok it may not good too have x1000 cm10.1 roms and x1000 avatar roms (like in gb times), but having 1(or 2) of each rom type is quite good in my opinion.

OMGz, dey using exizting stuff!
Ok, seriously, this got sooooo childish over time. I really think nikez & the while team are doing an amazing job, fo' sure.
+ They are open source which is amazing.
So, why would anyone really rewrite the whole thing? Just to grow some imaginary balls? What would you do?
The only question is:
If they (Avatar & everyone who uses their sources) improve the existing stuff, do they also release the sources for everyone?
Have a nice day and please rethink your opinion about this and open source in general.
Sure they haven't mentioned Evervolv yet, but I hope they will edit OP soon and match the rules.
By the way, 99% of those you accuse of "kanging" don't even kang, so get your facts right.
Kanging implies that they use Evervolv code (in this case) and don't admit it.
(I don't even mention that they (EV) would be lost without CAF, Google, CM sources etc.)

HI op if you want the avatar theme to be the theme applied when Rom is booted for the very 1st time add this to build.prop
persist.sys.themePackageName=com.avatar.theme.Denim
Then the avatar theme will be loaded up by default every time the phone is booted up thanks x
---------- Post added at 06:45 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:37 PM ----------
Not carrying on the rant over here lol but Come on guy's the whole Rom is not evervolv's just because they ported the Rom DONT make every single app or code in the rom theirs. Yes they may have coded SOME things but NOT everything. So what if the OP used most of the current avatar rom he HAS THE RIGHT to because android is OPEN SOURCE. I am fed up with members on xda all they care about is THIS IS MINE NA NA NA NA NA get a grip of yourselve's are you really going to act like a child for a few codes and a few apps ???? My 2 year old daughter would laugh at you for acting more like a child than she is. Come on guy's developers should SHARE not argue and point the fingers at eachother. And if people didnt KANG or whatever the hell you want to call it then where would most of the rom's on xda be ????? Every developer os sense Rom's KANGED HTC do you see them coming on here chucking their dummy's out the pram ???? because i dont see them doing that. I think it is sad it has to come down to developers arguing like children over some damn files when they should be sticking together like a comunity should. This is why most good hearted developers LEAVE xda because the developers are selfish and act like children. That's all i have to say on the matter. Now i tend to my CHILD. Take care xxxx

I don't understand why everyone starts to accuse people of basing their rom on others' source. Isn't that the whole poing of open source and sourse sharing?
This way, google should accuse and sue every single developer for using the Android source.
So lets just enjoy this ROM, and appreciate that there are still people who work for this device.
Okay I tested this rom and I have to say it's fast but 2 bugs : There is no signal ( probably simcard not detected but not sure) , graphical glitches ( everywhere, not only in YouTube app, the screen kinda tears and acts weird, everyone should know what I mean) . I tested it for a while and that's the bugs I found. It's fast ROM but the glitches and other bugs make me to not use this ROM for now.

First off why do you need more kernels? Just 1 kernel that is stable, tweakable and smooth should be more than good enough. Better having one kernel by a developer who knows what he's doing rather than 10 kernels which lack in quality. I've been with sensei since day 1 and I've seen phenomenal battery life and smoothness.

you seem to be quite new to XDA forums. I've been around for a while and I can tell you that threads like these don't encourage developers. If they wanted to or they could they would have done so
to be honest,kernel for CM12.1 ++ is already modified ,more performance,more stability already included
also, SG Fame,only have 1 custom kernel and it's included into any Custom Rom build from source bro
already include tons of feature
All In One is better dude ,10 people working together
