I've looked high and low and cannot find the NS4G thread that is similar to this one for the Nexus S :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=13556812&postcount=2
Am I missing something or is there none? I keep coming back here trying to get and idea of the newest roms and just get confused with the wall of text in the NS4G dev forums.
Pretty sure that's the only one, it even says that most of those are compatible with our 4G's.
PS: All of those aren't really "new" anymore, most of the new ROMS are on page 1&2 of the development section, after that most of the pages have been abandoned . Trust me at first its really confusing to look at every thread but once you flash most of them you find which ones you like and just stick with those few

We need a Rom sub forum under samsung captivate so all the roms are in one places and not all mixed up under development.

Wouldn't they still need to be in the development forum..since most are a works in progress ? I could see having a sticky with links and screen shots of them but they would have to be locked down otherwise they would get cluttered up with all of the questions being asked about them..

yes locked down or something cause they are freaking cluttered now.
I'll bump it now. Guy tried to put together a sticky like this, but never got stickied.
Well can't find it now.
Nvm got it

I had a professor once that told me "clutter is a sign of brilliance". So finding anything in the dev forum would make you a Mensa candidate.

But where would the feedback go though... and all those "how do i turn on my phone so i can install this rom" questions?

im trying to gather resources to make a website devoted to presenting ROM's in a easy to use way. check it out. thanks
so ive been pondering on this all day and this is my conclusion:
how about the development section actually being a developement section, and all "what modem should i use?" or "will this work the the i900 kernal?" or the "when is the updated version coming out?" could go in the q&a section where they belong, what we need are more mods that are a little more active in moving threads and deleting unnecessary posts out of the development section, can you imaging how much more smooth our devs could work if they didnt have to sort through 20 posts to find one that might help them with the actually development.
oh and one more thing, that captivate bible thing, that was an excellent idea, would have done a lot of great things and helped many people, but no one goes through and updates it, what a waste :/
I found this a while back. I found out quite a-bit about our phones from it...Seems to me since this is already up and running..maybe the owner wouldn't mind adding a section for custom Roms and maybe the themes as well ? Wouldn't hurt to ask them anyway..I did just a few minutes ago

The easiest way is to look for the threads Labled {Rom}? This has been brought up over and over again. It tried a few times but never went anywhere as most at to busy to keep the roms on more then one website. As for the questions being asked they belong in the thread for the rom they use and not in Q&A.
I think he was talking about all the other questions in the development section. What Im talking about is something like just roms in a section, if u want to ask questions or talk about rom fine but be only under that rom thread, U would have a Section Clean of all kinds of post and other development stuff, Have a certain format for titles in the rom section, where it would be uniform. I know there still under development but it would be clean, and easy to find.
I like this idea. It should be formatted sort of like DG's thread. All questions goes on that thread for development and on the first page the links would point to the ROM section where people can download the roms they need look at screen shots.
YOu think its possible if we can split up the Nexus S DEV section, its really getting littered with ROMs (which is good) but its now a bit confusing to see all the different ROMs mixed up. Not that that its HARD to to really distinguish which ROM goes to which device, its more annoying than anything.
Anyone agree? maybe get a new sub forum for the NS4G, they are really 2 totally different devices if you think about it
i think its fine, i just think the titles need to be changed, have the phone tag all the way to the left to make it easier to scroll by
I say no. I have had a lot of help from fellow NS owners some things are the same. Just read the OP before flashing. Or test on your own to see if new (2.3.4) roms work with your device. And as always have a good backup.
Looks like the Admins agreed. I didnt have ANY issues with distinguishing 4g from NS ROMs, my thing was the clutter aspect
Agreed and thank you to the admins.

New Nexus S 4g android development section created!
Sorry for the noob question I try not to post here and bother you guys but I keep asking and getting different and not definitive answers. So I did the LG update and I have 2.3.3, The kernel is 2.6.32.9, Baseband July 15. So from reading in this forum I gather that the baseband is different but the kernel remained the same with the LG tool. Now the OTA changed the baseman and the kernel along with the gingerbread. Is that correct and what is the difference between kernels. I also heard that the stock camera shoots is 720P not the 1080p with the LG update. Then someone said that the OTA update shoots in 1080p. Is that true?
I have to say I really like the gingerbread features like the way it looks and the way it edits text with the bars (I know you can buy the keyboard in the market) but I don't see the difference in Battery, Speed or stability. The reason for that is my phone has been running like a champ since day one. So it was hard to get much better.
So if I use the link in this forum to go back to stock froyo can I then do the ota so I can get the new kernel or is there a way to get the new kernel without having to do that? Again I am sorry for posting here but you guys know the most so I just want the best info.
Charlie
Baseband is July 15 and the kernal stayed the same ain't much of a difference. I really don't care where you post but alot of the tough guys around here do. Goodluck uncle Charlie

Yeah. Nothing I've heard of a new kernel so you've got the best part of the update (imho), the baseband.
And yes this will be closed or moved soon and hopefully no ban.

Seeing as your new here, a little help for you.
This section of the boards you posted in is the "development" section. All posts regarding developing go here, nothing else. Each phone that XDA supports has a development, question and answers, theme, general, and an accessories section. You can find the main G2X section HERE. This post belongs in the Q&A section, not development as it has nothing to do with the latter.
Thing that gets people pissy here is people asking the same questions over and over, or posting non development related posts in this section. Normally, if its a ? it doesnt belong here.
Go to the auto store and buy condoms and go to the drug store to buy brake pads..see? doesnt work like that.
-(Face Palm)-
Thread closed, please post in the correct section.
I'm running baseband version from 07-15-2011
and rom Bionix Reloaded v1.4.1
Not saying I dont like it but I dont see any new roms that I can try
I really dont know know how to what cm roms are besides the name. and no idea what port roms are.
no gingerbread roms have been updated or made since last year from what I can tell by the Ref guild listed on the front of Development and im not sure how to or if it is a good idea to upgrade to ICS
any advice?
Seems like you're new to modding, I highly suggest you stay with the ROM you're running if nothing is wrong (don't fix what's not broken).
If you decide to flash other stuff,PLEASE for the sake of everyone,READ READ and READ some more. Abuse Google to find out what cm7 stands for and other terms you don't know.
Don't assume
Yeah I've got a lot of problems with the phone (most are described on"Google" as problems with this model). And like my past phones changing the Rom changes/fixes the problem because good developers know how to fix problems. Yet by the list, nothing looks new and exciting. Sorry I've only dealt with roms and rooting along with minor other things.
I believe the benefit of a forum is to be correctly informed. Info on Google may not always be up to date and or correctly relate to you. That's why I ask questions (only an idiot acts without thinking) in a forum about my phone so people with the same phone can input not disregard. Searching on this site doesn't answer basic questions. Out of all my other phones I work on this site does how ever have topics that keep me informed vs having to go over pages looking for Rom updates.
If there was another forum that specialized in my phone and was as knowledgeable I would go there. But as far as I have found, most sites just use links/content from this one.

Also, don't use the reference guide, manually go into the development forum and look around.
The reference guide tends to be outdated.
Some developers also use rootzwiki as their forum, mainly faux, so be sure to check there too.
so i plan on getting my gf the samsung galaxy tab 2 7" model
but there is 5 pages of post here, and looks like there is a mix of just wifi units and wifi/3g units so why is there no thread separation, like you get in alot of other sections, hell even some sections have separation of carrier if the radios for the carries are different
it just a little hard to get through all of them, especially when i'm just looking for the wifi models and then i look at a something someone made and its not for the model i'm getting for her
is there any plans on making a separation for the wifi only and the wifi/3g units or no?
I agree, I think they should be separated also. Although the 3113 CAN use 3100 roms, and I believe there are other variations of compatibility. It can still be cumbersome scrolling through incompatible roms.

Doubt any plans to separate. One request for you tho, please don't post question threads in the dev forum. Post question threads in the questions forum. Thx.

Call me old fashioned but I tend to use the forum search engine for navigation and simple question finding. If you had done that , then you would work out that most ROMS are getting merged.Such as 3110/3113 are exactly the same thing and devs are making builds universal now ( see CM10 for an example) In fact you can use any 31xx on any 31xx device (But don't expect a Phone ROM to work on a Wifi only ROM as its hardware not software that makes it ring)
Its ironic that you post about too many threads in the development forum , then post in it asking a question lol. To be honest we are hardly flush with ROMs to choose from in this forum ( No disrespect to any dev intended, just stating a fact)
You are old fashioned

Questions should be posted in Q&A forums, not Development forums.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/announcement.php?a=81
See rule #15
Thread moved.
yes i am aware this should of been posted in the Q&A section and slap my hands for it
but i felt after 5 pages of threads some house keeping should of went in place and some sort of separation should of went in
but i also know this kind of question gets ignored in the Q&A section till everyone starts complaining about it
and by that point the house keeping for it gets, well undesirable to be fixed
beyond this time i have behaved and put my questions in the Q&A section unless it was part of the original thread it was in
yes i did use the search engine and that is how i found my first few relevant post, but after the first few that is when i go to the begin of the tree
and then see if there is separation so i'm not going through each search result of not need to look at info
and with what you stating with cross compatible roms, that just means you would have a section for none cross for each in general and the section for cross compatible roms as you point out that its the hardware series in general that makes it possible
but now the major question remains on when or if i will be able to get ahold of one, as most of the places i turn to for my electronics are out of stock of the units, but time will tell
