Hi! it is a long time since I last flashed pcarvalho's ROMs but I think he is very much responsible for many of us being able to flash and cook 6.5 roms on our beloved but rather old polaris.
I propose a quick poll just to gather 250€ so he can continue with his production (or do what he wants). As soon as we have 250 voters we close the thread and send the euro via paypal. It is fair?
Already donated (since pcar' polaris dead):
15 € x 1 = 15: whitealien
10 € x 5 = 50: Kulen, Tamirl, vld75, fldin, masterplan_79
5 € x 1 = 5: nemiers
Willing to donate
10 €: jopost
5 users (no amount specified): cruiserrr, skumara, redirecttonothing, nemiers, squeeza
12 more not identified (please leave a message since I thougth I could get the names from the poll)
Offering 2nd hand polaris deal:
Ronok (Belgium): 150 transportation and insurance included.
Vestlink (somewhere in Europe): willing to donate his device to a polaris developer
DaRacerz, willing to sell it as well since he changes to a new phone
good idea!!
it would be a good idea to post a link to this on pcharvalo's ROM thread.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=506043&page=733
It's been here a few days already and I just noticed it.
I believe most people, like me, only read threads they follow, and just sometimes check for new threads.
and from the name of the thread is not too understandable what it is about, so many people probably just skip it.
If somebody want to donate more please write in thread here so we can see how much we can gather. or even better just pay to pcharvalo via paypal and write that you did.
And perhaps even less than 250 € can be enough if he wants to buy a new (used) one instead of repairing his:
and he certainly does deserve a new one for all he did in Polaris development.
he lost his device trying to make ours better :-(
ready to donate
I sent 10 EUR. via PayPal
I'v used his geat ROM long time. I'v never sent money, but it is right time to make donate.
Thank you Mr. pcarvalho.
I'm honored to donate 10€ to Mr. Pcarvalho, for his fantastic's ROM's.
Thank you!!!
ready to donate
p.s. have you got positive answer from Pcarvalho, that if phone is bought that he continues development?
Well, I personally give my opinion in the subject: it is one € (or more) back for the hours he has devoted to the polaris community, not in exchange for what he may want to do in the future.
That's your option, nobody is here to judge anybody, pleope willing to give some money for the job done so far can already donate the money. If you want to donate only if he continues the development, then wait...
Polaris donation for Mr. Pcarvalho
I already sent the 10€ to Mr. Pcarvalho ( paypal ), for his fantastic's ROM's and his support to the old !!! polaris.
Thank you!!!

Hi all,
first of thanks for all this, i'm truly amazed at you all, i wasn't going to get a polaris cause, lets face it, its 2,5 years old and newer devices with similar price tags are available, getting one is not a very good deal (unless you have very basic nokia models, then i fully recommend it ).
but as always this community changed my way of thinking. even though my polaris died you all are working to help me get another one. so...
i'm now currently trying to find a way to fix mine (or get one that's working and in mint condition) and so all current donations will be used to get it working.
once i do get it, rom development will obviously continue. i have some kind of customization disease. all my phones are always "make it mine"...
so, thanks for those that are helping, my only regret is COM5 Branch (235XX) is currently paralyzed (more or less since my device died), that means lots of time was wasted that could have meant lots of fixes...hope i can fix that soon...
cheers
I have already donated 10€. Thanks pcarvalho.
I just ordered a new phone (the "desire" was too great ). I was going to sell my touch cruise on ebay, until I saw this topic. I can sell my device to you... I haven't figured out how much I want for it though. I think the used ones go for 100-150 nowadays.
I think it's better to send my device to somebody who knows the device and is going to develop it further, rather than some random guy. Although I know I will probably get a smaller share.
What do you think?
in appreciation of the few POLARIS chefs
Hi cruiserr!
thanks for starting this poll. I donated to pcar before, since I have been using his ROMs for quite somewhile now and they really added value to my otherwise lame phone. Unfortunately there are too many leechers out there that can not appreciate hard coding/ porting work. Still, I voted to donate again for a replacement phone for pcarvalho. However, I think sending his one to repair is not the cheapest way here - besides the ideological value. We could watch the bay for getting them around 150 maybe.
Regards
sqeeza

Hi all,
I'm using last-but-one ROM from April and I really enjoyed it. Next week will flash the last ROM.
I've just donated 10€ for supporting Pcarvalho and thanking him for the great effort.
Hope this will help.

Shipping and handling costs to Portugal are about 30 € with insurance and tracking information. Without insurance and tracking it's 10 euro. Delivery time should be between 3 and 10 days.
I'd be happy with 150 € all-in (120 for the device). I can't take pictures now, because I don't have an other camera than the one on the polaris. I'll send them asap.
BTW i'm from Belgium, not Germany

hello guys,
as per our initial wait time, we have waited till today to see if we could reach out target donation amout... but as u guys would have realized too the donations have slowed down considerably... but thats expected to happen...
currently we have donations which are around 277 USD [13850 INR]... we have taken the decision that we will no longer wait for the rest of the donations to come thru, instead we will buy a new device from local retailer... we feel this is the best option as we will not run into warranty issues (as it will be purchased thru reliable retailer), or have to pay any additional "hidden costs" which are prevalent in online purchases... we had checked yesterday and its price was 353 USD [17650 INR]... though the price is relatively steep, we have decided that we will buy it... we will chip in the remainder of the amout ourselves, namely we will pay 353 - 277 = 76 USD, which is almost double of wht we initially promised to pay but we think there is no point in taking un-necessary risks thru online retailers, delayed deliveries and warranty claims... the reason we are so much inclined to warranty is because of the fact that kernel development can be most "dangerous" in terms of bricking the device, i have first hand experience as i have bricked two andoid phones ... so even if we need to pay that little more atleast we will have the warranty claim to fall back on for get new replacement device
we will go and buy the device right NOW...
THANK YOU ALL WHO DONATED!
we hope that the rest of u will willingly donate, especially when u see our work

hey guys i am glad that u all have finally reached close to target amount...
i have already discussed this with Napstar and i think we can now start accepting donations...
to avoid bouncing the donations from various accounts, and incurring the un-necessary charges/overheads, here is wht i suggest/recommend:
the international users can directly send donations to me (via PayPal): my donation link (when sending donations via paypal kindly put a comment saying "for i9003 development" or "for sgs-sl development"
the domestic (Indian) user can directly contact Napstar via p.m., he will provide u his account details and then u can send in the donations via NEFT bank transfer (i think this is the fastest way and can be done via online banking for most indian banks)
let me know wht u guys think...

i will be updating this post with info on the donations we receive...
hello guys,
i was contacted by a few users from ur community (mainly vishal24387) with a request to develop for ur device [SGS-SL]... u guys might remember me from a few weeks (months?) back when i was requested to help out with USB-OTG, sadly that didnt work out since i didnt have device to do testing on
so we (Team UtterChaos) would like to know if the user community for this device is interested in donating a device to us for development... this is not for USB-OTG BUT for general kernel development for this device...... Team UtterChaos currently consists of me and my dear friend Napstar and both of us are from Pune, Maharashtra, India...
additionally let me make this clear... we want a working device... you guys can work out a way to raise funds for this and send us a working device...
remember i am only posting here since the users from your community have approached and requested me to do so...
i mostly develop for Xperia devices (x10, Arc, Play, etc...) and personally have a Xperia X10 & Xperia ARC... i recently received Xperia Play as a donation from that community to work on that device... i mostly work on kernels and some fun stuff (dualboot, modified recovery, bootmanager, lots of tools, etc)... i will soon be getting a HTC Flyer for personal use/development... if u want to know wht all i have created/done/played with u can check the list of threads:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1141153
Napstar has a Ideos X6 (Spice MI410) and has developed kernels, recoveries, etc for that device... if u want to know wht all he has created/done/etc, u can check list of his threads:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/search.php?do=finduser&u=4224819&starteronly=1
since u would have realized that i am pretty busy with the phones i already have, so i have requested my dear friend Napstar to take the lead in developing for ur device, if u guys do decide to donate a device to us ... i will help him out initially but later on he will be the one working for ur device...
so what do the users of this community think?
do let us know in this thread wht do u guys think...
@MODS: since i was requested for helping out with development i have posted this thread in dev section... if u think its not the correct section kindly move it to which ever section u think is correct...
this will contain the list of users whos donations have been received in my PayPal acc. or Napstar's bank acc.

### donation updates ###
To all i9003 members
Only CM7 or CF root is not enough guys. Porting mods, themes can be done at any time guys but we all know that we really require a great kernel developer who will develop great kernels which will make phone snappier like never before. In galaxy S2 or Galaxy S section you will see lots of custom kernal which is made by them. In older days we had skin but now really we need to take major step guys for our phone. Codeworkx already said that once ICS will release all he will completely pay attention to GALAXY S & S2 phone. Then again we will be alone with our phone for long time. So guys please dont be restrict yourself upto some themes or mods. Dont make urself busy with new officially roms released by samsung. They can deeply reviewed by us later. But right now donation & more important KERNAL development is more necessary.
I just want that u have to just donate a very small amount say like 200-300 Rs (5-6 $ USD) which we usually spend on some non-important things. If we donate today it will refund us in form of high level kernal development. So please I again & again requesting u to take some initiative. No other developer will come to help us. Unless & until they have phone in hand no developer can develop kernal virtually for our phone. THINK GUYS SERIOUSLY ABOUT THIS PLEASE .
For some days I will just collect names of members who want to donate. If amount reached to our target amount then we will start donation.
ITS A HUMBLE REQUEST THAT PLEASE IF U WANT TO REALLY DONATE ONLT THEN & THEN GIVE ME YOUR NAMES.

I think its a great idea coz you have great kernel and OTG working knowledge.
I know you will rock our device. Btw do any of you can write OR manipulate drivers? Like bring video gtalk on our device?

This would be great, if you could develop kernels and USB OTG for our device
Sadly, I'm only a student and don't have a credit card to donate, but I would be very happy with a developer like you working with our device
I am ready to donate, Last time i didnt donate due to some problem, but this time i am ready to donate
I am happy guys by looking ur response. I am just waiting of podanimesh's response.
I can donate 10€ via paypal. Of course I would see first how many people are going to support this idea. It would be great that Napster helps codeworks in getting a stable porting of cyanogen mod.

Cool down, I did read the OP and I still confirm what I wrote. If Napster wants to develop on this device, he might consider to help codeworkx as well, I don't see any conflict in this. And I am sure that most people here would be happy to donate if this leads to a stable CM.
Do you understand now? or do I need to better explain my concept?

+1 @frank
ya, obviously Napster will provide many things other than the USB OTG if he has our device on hands. Hopefully he and Doomlord will make I9003 development better and better. Before that, we need to consider donating in order to get the device. I am so happy because there are a lot of efforts showed to make things better for us and our beloved I9003!
I also would donate. I think this is a very good idea, and we must do it. How many people would donate for this proyect? It would be a great idea to make a list and count participants, and that would make people be more sure about the proposition....
vishal24387 said:
Really thanx doomlord. Dont have words to say thanx. I am sure that our community will surely now take device developement seriously. Its like rebirth of our device for developement after Skin & Amit's valuable work. After codeworkx you are like jackpot for us.
Our member podanimesh who want to sell his phone I request him to give us a way of donation so that all people can donate to podanimesh.

That's about 220 €, no? Codeworkx's one was new and costed 250 (the biggest part of the donation came from Europe). At this price I'd prefer donating for a new one.

Hi, Fit costs around 190-200 USA Dollars here, so if you want to donate, 170-180 would be fine. I can't spend much from my own money. Don't send me money until enough people are willing to donate.

count me in for Rs 100 or $2 .
A suggestion or you guys why not let people post the cheapest price for a device second hand included they cN find so that we dont need to shell out so much money .
i got some in india on online stores for about 190$(us) so not worth it but ebay us showed two galaxy fit slightly old for just 75$ that seems to be something no...
Post away then ^
TheWhisp needs device, so we can either manage a phone, or money to buy that phone...
First hand fit would be hard to come by...

check this out : http://classifieds.sulekha.com/chennai/buy-sell/mobiles/clad.aspx?cid=9403040
About $112[US] reduces the need to raise large amounts in donation.
count me too
Count me as well. ready to donate 2$ or 100Rs. we should come forward to have our gfit running on ICS or JB
OK, I am in. I can afford $20 as donation. A little step from every one can make a big move. And after all its for us guys.
count me in..
but i have no credit card, no paypal etc etc :/

ya I think its a good idea but the major problem is how we will send fit to him
we can send money but it would be slightly difficult of sending fit to whisp....
anyways I think its a good idea and we should give it a try!!!!!
Okay, I'll jot down the problems because of which fit forums doesn't see much donations:
1. Underage user and devs: Quite a few here are below the legal adult age of their country
Solution: Use a parent/guardian's account
2. Don't have paypal/credit card or no means of doing online monetary transactions:
Except catching hold of a person who has a paypal, giving him some cash and telling him to pass it on to the dev's paypal; there's no solution except that...
I don't trust people enough with my money that I intend to give to others, so I'm not running off to transfer money to a 3rd party account either
Solution: ?
3. Want to donate, but have no cash:
Maybe because you don't earn/are a student
Solution: Nothing much
4. Don't want to donate and have no ideas to give, just here to troll:
Solution: Use the back button in your browser, this thread isn't for you
Main problems are 1 & 2...
And 2 is the most important one as that's what is stopping a lot of people...

Well, cheapest I could find is ~180$ new. I couldn't find any used in the most popular Latvian sites. I can donate ~30$ from my own money. Maybe even 40$. (So you can add me in the list) I don't know why it's so expensive, even Galaxy Mini 2 is in the same price

Hey guys! Renowned developer Kryten2k35 who has developed the extremely awesome UltimaROM for the i9300 would now like to develop it for the S4 as well (as per a lot of requests), starting with the i9505, but he currently cannot afford one. Many of you are from the S3 forum and possibly even used UltimaROM on your devices. If you donate, post your names here and I'll add them to the list below.
Would you like to see it on the S4? Then, please donate a few coins of your currency and help Kryten reach his goal of £425! Every amount counts and is well received!

Thank you for your time, and possible donation! You are awesome!
Bump.
If people just knew how awesome this rom is!
Yeah.
Any donation counts and he'd (and the ones wanting this godly rom on their i9505's) be extremely happy. College fees are killing him currently.
Any chance of him getting it to the 9500? I can donate a few bucks if he can do it...

Yeah but only after he gets an i9505. He is heavily reliant on LTE.
Bump! Come on people.
Why doesn't he buy it from Revo-Digital? That's where I got mine from. Arrived in 2 days. Good customer service. £423 at the moment for the i9505 with one year warranty.

(I know link says i9500 but its actually the i9505)
There's still the issue of lacking funds, hence why he started a pledgie. ^^
Looks like his UltimaROM users doesn't like it that much.

Never used UltimaROM, but I checked it out so it looks cool. But if the pledge is lowered to 425, makes more sense no? That's more than a 100 quid cheaper!

Donated. Also, change the OP to reflect the new amount before people get scared off :silly:
Hope this comes to fruition.

Ok, changed it. You donated £20, yes? Pledgie doesn't seem to show who donated what, or I'm too stupid to find it.

Hey, anything counts.
Oh thanks for this guys
It would be my pleasure to start developing for the SGS4.
Also, the amount was the cost at the Three retail store... Shawty showed me a reputable place doing it much cheaper If I can find cheaper (new) I'll lower it as much as possible for that, since I want to pay as little as possible anyway
I may be able to get it slightly cheaper as well once my friend returns from holiday, as he works a electronics retail site and could cut a few corners to get me a low price.
EDIT:
Free delivery on that website I can lower it more!
What version will you get?
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium

He will get the i9505 first because of the LTE and he will get the i9500 as well but only if he gets that many donations.
Currently, though, there is not much that speaks for the i9500. No aosp support and is very unlikely to ever get it, poorly-implemented big.LITTLE technology, exynos. "But it has eight cores!" So f****** what?

From where?
The same site you linked to I had £450 up because I know Pledgie take 3% and I was accounting for delivery, but then I realised 3% of that is about £15 and the delivery is free, so I changed it to £425
Sorry if I'm posting this in the wrong section but I've been talking to well known well established developer Sacs23 who has done amazing roms for the Galaxy series (s4, note 3, etc) now if we can fund him a note EDGE he has promised to give us a fully modded Rom with continuous development through (this is one developer whom I will personally vouch for and know won't just take our money and run) I know the device itself is super expensive as a stand-alone purchase but if 80 of us were able to throw $10 each down we would literally be able to get him the device in his hands tomorrow now if nobody is interested in funding this for him now in April I have an upgrade which I may just purchase the device for him myself but will ask in return for you guys to fund me back the $150-200. Let me know what you'd like to do guys and I'll work with him to set up the donation link.
Love Sacs work set up the donation link. I'll donate some cash but would like to be a tester let me know what I can do
Guess nothing is happening here?
