Thank you childofthehorn, subarudroid et all for SGH-i497 progress! - Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm unable to post in the development section as I'm not over my post minimum requirements (yet).
So I wanted to make this public "thank you" to Childofthehorn, subarudroid, Win_Wizard and anyone else contributing to the custom ROM support of our SGH-i497.
I don't have much experience in the ways of android or Linux, but if you guys ever need a guinea pig tablet I am volunteering mine
The 2 forums are linked below to anyone interested in helping, and thanks again!!

<3 --- THANK YOU! --- <3

also, I'm setting up a dev environment to try and make my own roms / kernels x.x wish me luck.

Still learning Ubuntu, tutorials on youtube and xda-university have been extremely helpful but it's a slow journey to learning a new language.
Goals for the future include:
-Helping in any way I can (testing / dev work)
-Porting CMx
-Porting Slimbean
-Creating my own "slim" ROM
ALL for the SGH-i497 / Bionic (The only 2 Droid devices I have =) )

-> Tutorials, Guides and ROM feedback THread ( I can do it for the future release of ANY official ROM)
-> Port of themes (Contribute as much as you can on this)

Wanna join me to make a OverClockable kernel?
I was gonna start making a Kernel soon, it seems you are interested.
Why not be a part of my team which only consists of me? LOL...
I don't know anything about Kernel Development....
Gonna start up by reading stuff from Google....
I need someone to test the Kernel too once its made....
My friend who has this phone won't do it :/
So what say?
I am ready to join you! I am now downloading the source code and stuff for Fit! Will take some time! And, I am a total NOOB to kernel DEV.
But, I think I have a friend who is good at it! I will try consulting him on what I can do.
Also, it would be good if you can share the source from where you are about to learn the Kernel Tweaking!

That's because the oc kernel is for mini....apart from the touch keys, screen and camera everything else is identical with fit and hence those features not working...a huge thanks for testing the same....am pretty sure one of our devs can pick up the work of changing the required in the mini oc kernel....the same way in which we got CM7.1 working for our fit....

Please help on info for Creating custom rom

Hey All! I have been lurking around the forums and reading intensively on how to create a ROM but all I get usually is moreso on how to modify an existing rom, not actually create one from scratch, the steps involved in creating one, either from a Download of the base rom (un-rooted ) or pulling files off the phone itself via (adb pull /system )
If you know of any good info that may be of use to me please feel free to post a link! Any help would be appreciated!
**I currently have/use the Samsung Galaxy Prevail (SPH-M820 ) boostMobile, so anything directly related would be appreciated**
Thankx!
This is the very core of it!
Android source
You will be able to download compile and build a ROM, although, all of those threads on modifying ROM's will then come in handy because you are going to have a lot of tweaking as well.
If you are interested in Cyanogenmod source have a look HERE
Also check out the Chef Central section subforum Android. Lots of good stuff there.
imheroldman - Thanks I appreciate the links! , and those are some I have NOT run across yet lol :facepalm:

See this is a old thread, but for new people maybe add the definition of Aries, and what the common bugs are. I know you all don't get many new people over here, but my wife has this phone. I put 4.0 on but don't want to go further as the confusion with common bugs.

This, relatively speaking, is a fairly new thread:

Reading through the development threads is how you learn what those terms are and what the bugs are.
This is just a listing. EDIT: If a thread was made about aries and what bugs are current, I'd be happy to add it to the listing.
The hard part for users, understandably, is having to read.
I know it's hard, but it's part of how the forum works.
I don't mind reading, but even after a search and reading tons of comments I still have not found an answer. But thanks for responding anyways. Maybe once I get a solid answer I might just make that happen.

I'm saying, this thread is not an informational thread. If there is a thread on what aries is and what the bugs are, then I would link to it here.
Any contributors around feel like starting a thread?
Tracking the bugs is half the battle.
So far I know that: GPS and tvout are broken (tvout is my fault)
I know that we're all discussing moving /data to the sdcard.
Other things like that should go into that thread. Not here. Just sayin
I hate it when I suggest something, and end up doing it any way.
I'll start an informational thread in the general forum and link to it here.

AND if you are very good at android development then you can also start building ROMs and Kernels for your current android device - but this a very complicated process so many people usually stay out of this.... And its risky too, because experimental kernels and ROMs can also brick or damage your phone!
