[JT1134's ROM] ICS is Here (Post Updated With Screenshots)

I'm not going to clean the post history, as some people need reminders of just how stupid they sound. But I will start banning anyone who continues to harass developers. Final warning.

CM9 ICS AlphaBeefaroni for the Droid Charge from TeamHacksung : the most unsupported ROM ever created

ROM - http://www.mediafire.com/?c45wga90hjmxtvc
Google apps - http://www.multiupload.com/D07OVCSB9G

Instructions:
* make a backup of your current ROM, if you're a pansy like that
* WIPE DATA (DUH)
* flash the ROM (DUH)
* mount system under mounts & storage, then flash Google apps
* reboot into a ridiculously early build of ICS/CM9 for the Droid Charge

If it doesn't boot the first time, boot back into recovery, and repeat the steps above.

If you find a bug...keep it to yourself! Don't ask me how to fix it, you already saw yourself that it doesn't work, right?

For the haters: http://kan.gd/1e1t :-O

Enjoy. Or don't. I don't care.

Signed, with <3, jt1134

I'm pretty sure the only things not working are bluetooth, the youtube app, the radios, the camera (which i haven't seen working in nearly every other ICS ROM for every other phone), and the home button (which doesn't matter much because you can just use the back button).

I know that EGL (hardware acceleration) is working, wifi is working, the screen, sdcard, all google apps and basically every thing else you can think of.

It is really great how much is working, especially considering that this is a first build. Thanks JT!

JT IS NOT YOUR PERSONAL BABYSITTER SO DON'T GO WHINING TO HIM WHEN YOU FIND AN ISSUE, OR THE ROM CAUSES A NUCLEAR WAR (which it might because of how amazing it is).


Because JT1134 is so AMAZING, here is his donation link so you can add to his beer fund. If you liked this ROM or any other mod or tweak that JT has created, please donate him. Or even if you didn't try out any of his ROMs, donate anyway because he makes some amazing stuff!

I'm only stating the obvious.

As the only person who has yet contributed code to this project, along with ~12 hours of my personal free time, for a device I don't even use mind you, I reserve the right to say whatever I want to trolls or those who wish to downplay my efforts. Deal with it. Trolling or otherwise unhelpful posts are less than useless.

In short: contribute, or stfu already!

Dirge, have you been to irc? That is the true tale of the development scene.

Yes, we have been blessed lately with some nice work.

To stay on topic, my issue with this ROM is that it was labelled unsupported and JT quoted a post of mine and said donate for him to support it.

The mods were kind enough to erase that post showing the true tone of the purpose of this ROM.

You guys have made good points in the dev's defense but it still bothers me that donate was said about something the dev slapped together with little intention of working on.

It can be spun any way you want to in the dev's favor but this is what it looks like to someone that is impartial meaning- I use and enjoy the stock ROM and don't need custom ROMs or the like.

I never once asked for donations, you can't find the post because it never existed, so stfu already.

I shared everything I had and was very open with expectations, etc. Others with more free time than I have taken it and ran, which is the whole point of open source.

If you would like to *prove* any of these stupid accusations of yours, please post one shred of evidence. I'll leave my reputation as a developer and my contributions to the community as my proof that you're full of ****.

jt never posted this rom on a forum, and it wasnt exactly intended for mass consumption

so any negativity based upon is unfounded, and shows the lack of background knowledge that many on forums have

there is an ever growing divide between developers and the avg forum user....mainly due to the sense of entitlement that many seem to feel for a) donating a few bucks b) having previously been a cheerleader for a certain dev or group or c) just because

i dont care if you donated $100 to a rom or kernel dev, you dont own them, at the end of the day if you ran the numbers of donations / hours spent the math would never justify anyone working on stuff....developers do what they do because they like it...and if they decide to stop working on a particular project or a particular phone...well then so be it

jt has been the single most important person in the cdma samsung world for over a year and a half...no one can or should dispute that its just a fact...
brief highlight real for the uniformed/stupid: every single important kernel/aosp/rom highlight for the i500 phones, pretty much same for 3g galaxy tab, got the charge initial recovery and lagfix w/o the phone as well as booted gb and ics aosp...and lets not forget that the epic 4g aosp work uses most of everything he did

if you are unhappy with something in regards to the development of an os, rom, feature, or whatever on your phone...heres an idea: learn to program yourself and stfu
