Who are the Dev for D720?

[chris378]

So who are the developers that are going to be developing for the Samsung Nexus S 4G (D720)? I figured this is a question everyone has been wondering. Im very excited to get started with my Nexus S 4G! (Previously came from the HTC Evo and there were alot of dedicated dev., Hope to see the same here)

P.S I didnt put this in the Q&A Because this is a direct question to the developers in this section about the current ROM's Available. Please don't be upset : )

I hope netarchy puts up a rom with his liquid smooth touches. His evo rom + kernel was ILL.

The thing is, the nexus s and ns4g are dev phones, bare bone AOSP, so a custom rom is just gunna be "themed" a bit and/or the real "improvements" are in the Kernel or any additional apps the dev has created.

I would love to see a bunch of ports make their way over. I would imagine that a dev phone would be one of the easiest to port/build for (easy for a dev, not the average human )

in a way, we all are.. who is to say that someone has to be a "dev" to make something, or find out what may fix something? on the heroc we had hundreds of users sitting in an irc room helping each other trying to figure out why things didnt work and what would happen if we pressed this button 7 times instead of 4..

so in short grab some code and lets start working my repo is synced and already compiled im working with the rest of the ACS team to see if we cant bring some lovins on over from the epic/evo

trying to come up with a good name for the rom >.>

Well, its very time consuming. I did alot of theming in the past, then wrote a few apps for WebOS, but just don't seem to have the time anymore with fulltime work, college, etc.

You are right tho, anyone can learn and the nexus line are a great place to start, simple and not complicated. Come on young high-school minds with oodles of time! Make ur name known! Lol

Really tho, I wish I could contribute more

You know I have some time since school is over and now I'm just looking for work to pass me by til its starts again. NO BS if somebody could point me to the right way help me along the way. I would make a rom for the ns4g. Always wanted to just for self pride not for glory or money. So I'm here and ready!

I know alot of you guys don't know him. But ask any Droid owner about Peter Alfonso (BuglessPete). You couldn't ask for a better dev to work on stuff for your phone. * no pressure Pete
Seriously though shabbypenguin hit the nail on the head. We are in this together ...

This number one thing to do is get ur pc ready with the right software and drivers (there are a couple applications for compiling/decompiling and signing, not just what u use for root)

There's a thread around here about theming for the epic. It has a nice intro to the basic setup ull need, just be sure to replace anything epic with sns, u can then move on to ROMs once u understand what composes a ROM. When I'm back at my PC I could probably hook u up w a good place to start, but right now I'm out and about after this heathen Bulls game! Woot woot!

If I may suggest, Epic 4G is just about the same as the NS4G. From what I hear they got our stock to work on Epic just after I posted this.

I know they have the CM7 half way ported on Epic as well as the obvious stock with the TouchWiz interface for whoever likes that stuff I figured this would be the easiest place to start.

 

[shabbypenguin]

stop spamming this, its not going to work, for the same reasons why i explained in your thread about it

 

[BuglessPete]

It probably will work as much as flashing a Droid ROM onto a Milestone...same hardware...epic fail.

 

[shabbypenguin]

more so then that all they currently have is a .32 cm7 kernel a semi working .35 cm7 kernel and their stock .32 touchwiz kernel.. we only have .35 stock kernel, even if you could get past the bootloops good luck trying to make a phone call or get crap to stop force closing

Spamming? Chill out man. I'm just trying to help.
