This was unexpected. - Samsung Galaxy W I8150

Well I know this is sudden and possibly stupid, but I'm retiring from ROM development completely for those reasons:
1. I don't have the time anymore. I strive to be a game designer and that's my focus, dividing my attention unfortunately at my age isn't really an option considering I have a job currently and I need to pay the bills.
2. I got stuck in the development of CM7, and with lack of tutorials and my little time I can't really get past beyond the point I'm at. Fret not though, with luck Arco68's CM9 should be around the corner. He's really good and won't disappoint you like me. Give him time though =P
It was a pleasure to give a small push to this phone's community which I will keep an eye on (I will try to run for mod of this phone's forum, who knows, eh). For a good in-development ROM for now, look at cowithgun's rom, he's constantly updating it =P
Well I said my piece. Have fun guys!

Hey KP, I hope you will rethink about this decision, because you're an awesome guy and programmer!
But as always, your life comes first. So settle things with your job and then retake ROM development when you have the time for it

Hey mate,
a man has to make priorities and your private life always has to come first
You gave the SGW community a big push with your custom ROMs and that´s what counts.

Sad sad news, but as everyone said, personal matters come first, always.
I wish you all the best with your real life.
Thanks for pushing the W community so far.

Well, as you say unexpected indeed.
But you have had the good grace to announce it here, and for that I think this growing Community thank you.
You have been a leader and a doer here, thank you!!
Get on with your life, job and studies, good luck with whatever you undertake in the future.....
but, do you know, I have a suspicion we have not seen the last or the best of KP

You are soooooo welcome back.......
This is like a re-run of when I was involved in ZTE Blade on Modaco......
Dev wbaw, brilliant guy, always said "this is my last ever ROM" going to concentrate on Building Websites, yadda yadda......
BTW, We Build Any Website...wbaw
but he always came back with more.........and more!!!!
Just make sure you make time for all the other things in life, believe me, it's too short, so take care of the Work-Life Balance.......
like Kids, GF, Wife, Partner....alll come ahead of this stuff...
OK

Only sing any praises AFTER I get CM7 to work... I have a few good ideas on maybe how it will work (maybe).. It's based on a old theory I had when I first thought about porting CM7..
Let's hope ir works... For now, re-downloading sources
Sent from my GT-I8150 using XDA App

Since we have a new thread about CM7/Oxygen from Kezra I think he gave a second thought, at least for now. Or maybe he's just being able to manage things bt slowing down at the moment.
Whatever path you take thanks for the effort, man!

Hey Kezra,thanks for making the W community Wonderful,its nice knowing you around

XDA Rocks

Hi Guys,
Just a quick note to give everyone on this forum a BIG thumbs up. I've been lurking around here for quite some time but only really got into it over the last week or so.
Just in the last 3 days I must have flashed my DHD a good 20 times and with all the advice and help available here it's getting really easy. I've gone from RUU to full on custom ROM's and I'm loving it.
I think I can honestly say that I have found my favorite pastime (next to riding my Super Bike *snicker*).
Anyhoooo, enough waffling from me.... another ROM just finished downloading so back to flashing *uncontrolled evil laugh*
Keep up the AWESOME work!!
Thank you
I completely know the feeling, Im also addicted, thanks XDA!
Thanks
I to have learned a lot here on Xda.
Big thanks to all of those people who put in so much time and effort into the site and mods ,Xda tv & staff good accurate entertaining information.
This place is awesome. I spend alot of my free time on here now. It's a shame that the 1% of trollers and **** starters ruin it as much as they do.
Yes I too am hopped up on XDA still a rookie but rooted and overclocked you guys are the best

CM9 ICS on I8150 Noobie Report

Hello all,
I'm not a developer, but i'm just curious with CM9 on my first android device (GT-i8150), so I try to build CM9 source + arco's ancora ics.
I didn't changed anything except Line 45 on device/samsung/ancora/device.mk :
Code:
$(LOCAL_PATH)/init.qcom.usb.rc:root/init.qcom.usb.rc \
because I dunno where the init.qcom.usb.rc is located.
Stuff that currently work:
Phone (Call,SMS)
Mobile Network (3G, HSDPA)
Wifi
Bluetooth file transfer (only test transfer from GT-I8150 to my netbook)
Audio (Music)
Screecapture
Power (Power Off, Reboot)
Stuff that currently not work:
Camera
USB Mass Storage (idk how to enable it, no notification on statusbar)
Stuff that currently not tested:
Anything except above
I would say many thank's to arco & everyone who participated for the hard work making CM9 on our GT-I8150
Sorry for video, only taken with old phone
Very nice!
Thank you.
in the old os to enable usb mass storage is enable at usb debugging, check it then connect ur usb..
---------- Post added at 10:45 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:45 AM ----------
and can u give me the link i wanna try too
Can't you people wait? -.-
Headphone audio also doesn't work, charging the phone is problematic, GPU is causing certain root applications todos crash, as well as a few other problems.
If you can't really tell what works or not don't do it. CM9 is far from ready unfortunately. You're giving everyone the idea that it's all fine and dandy
Sent from my GT-I8150 using XDA App
okey sorry
Sorry, please close this thread.
I quit.. bye.
Nice to meet you all..
Hey Guys, just relax!
To quote John Carmack:
"It's done when it's done!"
No one wants a buggy CM9 on I8150, so be patient!
But I don't see a problem in testing early versions though... Just makes people getting hotter!

Social answer: Yes ofcourse, no problem... take it easy... take all the time you need...
Honest answer: I want it yesterday! give it to me! i cant wait !!
Just kidding, Arco wants to make a good and solid product, and since he likes to work alone, he really need some time for this jewel!
And ofcourse is everyone very curious, but thats only of enthusiasm !
Of course we can('t) wait!
Of course no one is expecting a stable release from other than arco because the guy just know his thing.
Still, the guys want to try and learn and that's good. If I knew a bit more (and I'm trying, slowly) and was not so dependent on my phone being FULLY FUNCTIONAL for my work I'd probably give it a shot too.
Have patience Dude arco68 is working on it...he has gone thru a bricked SGW thru out he dev.
It will be released I know he can do it....ROM dev. requires patience n focus...one wrong move n that's it...
This is his style......

heyyyyy man.....
no need for that kinda stuff, we are all new to this phone, but not new to this XDA community, or other communities...
like Android Forums, and Modaco, etc
I think everyone needs to chill.....but not to run off like that....and not say things we will regret later.....
not called for, we all try to help, in whatever way.
So many projects are destroyed by too much EGO....
so we need to be patient, but not get into strop when criticised, if it is constructive.
Constructive Criticism is good, and it builds Character

Thx man.appreciate that..I will keep in mind...forgive me if I'm running to kinda stuff and saying **** like that.

I know all of u guys being on this community for too long period of time..and u know much better than me..but this is not how long u have been on thing like this.this is about man's right and people's feeling bro.. And about the criticism..its not a constructive,but its like killing someone..why is everybody treat that man like his doing distribute of something.?or like this man want u to obey for follow his step...?that dude just want to show his work,but maybe some of u guys say his work "it's nothing to be proud of"....but for him maybe its worth it and doing that for his own satisfaction..he just wanna share his excitements for what his been doing.that's all..
And not a single word from him that this thing is fully functional rom and blah blah blah...u guys know that.
I know that Everybody have his own idea and it's different from everybody else....maybe I'm with a wrong side..I'm sorry.

Farewell and all the best to the best XDA community out there!

Well guys.
The time has come.
I've bought a Google Nexus and and sitting here configuring CM10 as we speak.
My Wildfire S finally gave up the ghost and it is with regret that I am jumping forums and beginning to work, help and learn about a new phone (for me.).
I just wanted to say goodbye and thank you to all of you who helped me along the way to learn about and get my footing with Android OS and the Wildfire S.
It was a great time and I've made some really solid friends along the way.
I was proud to be a member of this community of dedicated users and happy to give back the knowledge I learned along the way as well as benefit from the work of so many great devs like Alquez, Modpunk and many many more.
Be well and perhaps I will stop in every now and then.
Good luck with your GPS's and keep on rolling...

Hey!
Well, what can I say? I'm glad I could help. And as you can see, even though I'm not using Ancora anymore, I'm still here, still trying to help, still having fun developing Android in my spare time and, nonetheless, still being here for the people I care about. I was a new user myself and I learned a lot from the more experienced ones and from my own experience and, sometimes, even from the regular users. Cause, in my opinion, a good idea can come from anyone.
I'm happy for your new acquisition. It's a good phone. Have fun with it!
