The ELF is in the house!

After a short, and forced, vacation I'm back! LOL Anyways.. My ELF rom will be recooked shortly. Primary support will STILL be at htc-devs.com (I like it there ). It is a totally different style of rom cooking.. Mostly relying on extrom and .cabs to allow for greater end-user flexibility. My rom won't be for everyone, but, it should allow for a nice option--unique from other roms on here.
Creativity is the name of this rom..

Welcome back. Missed your style and errr creative replies to noobs.

I'm supposed to be nicer to n00bs on HERE.. On htc-devs.com however, I can be as mean as ever!
So, n00bs on here... Just RTFM and RTFW.. *I* am certainly not going to help you fix something you broke because you're too lazy to read...

You know, reminds me of a MasterCard commercial ("Priceless").... But, I probably shouldn't do it.. It wouldn't be a "kinder and gentler" Elf moment..

Welcome back ELF.
Digging the new avatar too, BTW.

Welcome back Elf. We missed you. Well, I *would* have missed you if I didn't see you in IRC and at HTC-DEVS every day - I really would have.

There ARE newbies like myself, who bricked their phones upgrading (I had a PC crash) and figured out how to fix it by going through the WIKI even though some create threads doesn't mean every newbie does it :>

n00bs are critical to the success of XDA-Developers. We tolerate and help them because our best developers were once n00bs. Devices are constantly changing and our "experts" constantly change too.
When m$ officially releases WM6 this forum will die back down to what it is 99% of the time. Then we will quietly begin taking apart the next generation of hardware and will start looking at the next generation of Windows Mobile.
The n00bs that we tolerated will drift away except those who can contribute. You will never find this on forums with zero n00b tolerance.

I dont think n00b has EVER turned into something useful, however once we were all newbies (yes there is a difference) who didnt know what we were doing, but wanted to learn how, not sit there demanding 'HI LOL GIVE ME GUIDE FOR TO PUT MW^ ON MY SONY ERICSSON NOW LOL' then five minutes later 'WHY IS NOONE REPLY YET? HELP ME NOW'.

In the strictest definition you are correct. I'm a half full glass kind of guy tho and I'm always thinking one will switch over. I'm sure that somewhere this has happened. More importantly, n00b bashing means that some newbies may be afraid to post and might just quietly slink away...

The great thing about the internet and the millions of subject based forums is that folks from all over the world can get together and share information on the subject of their choice. This free flow of information coupled with our fast paced lifestyle does lend to folks wanting to ask rather than search since they see it as the fastest way to get the information they seek. For the most part a gentle nudge in the right direction is all they need. The downside is that forums also provide a venue for those who lack knowledge to demonstrate their self perceived superiority anonymously. It's far easier and less costly to ignore a post that you think doesn't deserve a response. If you feel the need to reply you should respect the individuals who are providing the equipment, time, and bandwidth that makes the forum you are using possible. You do this by posting intelligent and informative responses.

LOL.... thats funny but no disrespect... did u really have to blast him like that. I mean, he is 15 and most teenagers type in that way. You know how they are, they dont have any patience... I wont be surprised if he had a tmobile sidekick close by. lol... All Im saying is give the kid a break,thats how most kids type. u being a senior member and all you should have more patience.
Oh... and the "LOL" stands for laughing out loud. Just thought I'd throw that out there... LOL

i hear what you are saying. i will tolerate it to an extent. i dont care if you are 15 or 50, if you are asking people for help, dont type like an idiot. if the kid can get him or herself on the internet, sign up for a forum and post asking for help, the least they can do is make an attempt at using a language that someone can read. i dont even care what language..i mean ****, we let stylez post and no one understands him. but most of his posts are full of read words...none i have ever heard of....and some are just plain silly sounding (and fun to say)..
all i am saying is of you are asking for help, and want people to take you serious, dont type like an idiot.

[REQ] Dialer themed like payphone

I am surprised nobody has done this yet...but how about a Dialer that looks like the keypad on a public phone?
This is a screenie from one that was done for the iPhone. If I knew more about the structure of an APK, and how the images were, I would try it myself.

This sounds like a similar request someone made sometime ago, I'll have to look for it because I remember someone made it.

I could do it. I've done lots of phone skins back in my WinMobile days. But I have a great fear that if I did, it would catch on like the incredibly stupid 70's flip clock. Can you imagine anything more ignorant than making a beautiful and versatile digital device look like a completely mechanical and annoying piece of counter technology from the 60's and 70's. The only thing worse would be nixie tubes. Yes, I have seen the nixie tube clock skins. Thank God that did not catch on...

This would be cool =]

I actually looked into skinning the phone. It's not as simple as replacing some .png files. It would require quite a bit more work. Sorry dude, not for me.

Well put. Rest assured there are some of us who do appreciate your work and the work of the many others out there. In fact, it's largely due to many of those ungrateful children that I spend very little of my time on XDA any more. I found Twitter to be a better forum; I don't have to follow the people who have nothing helpful to say.

Thank you, I appreciate everyone's work, regardless of if it's my taste or not. The effort everyone puts in to do their own things, is what has made out little Android grow into what we can do today. Ive also found the same, I'd rather use twitter to find stuff out.

Okay, as the OP here, I think it is well within my right to say that this tread has veered WAY off course of its original intention, heh. It was not my intent to have a flame war start, even if it was mildly entertaining for a few minutes
Anyways, for the dev's that have been kind enough to contribute to this discussion: I have used 99% of the ROMs available for the G1, and I thank each and every one of you for your hard work. It is greatly appreciated by more people that I am sure you had ever imagined. Keep up the good work.
Now, back on topic. A refresher:

[Q] Can the Evo do RFID?

Pretty much what the title says, Does the evo have any RFID capabilities? I've tried searching but haven't unearthed any solid info as to yes or no.
I'm assuming not, but I'd love to be able to read and emulate a few of my rfid enabled pass cards.

No rfid hardware on the evo.

jesus christ are you kidding me!!! rfid?!?!?! wow man, im sorry but im totally against rfid and if people start asking for rfid enabled phones im out of the android scene.
i dont mind being tracked with gps because we know what we're getting into and we can turn it off or leave it at home but man.. wow rfid.. youre nuts. im sorry
no trolling intended :x

*Thanks Iceman thats what I thought, but wanted some confirmation.*
Better make a really big hat then...
Seriously though its coming, having the ability to read a rfid tag on the phone would open up huge possibilities. I know Apple was rumored to have played around with it, and I swear I saw some phones over in japan and possibly in the netherlands that have this.
Now I certainly understand the desire to not have a passive tag on your phone, especially if it stores your info.
But having the option to switch the tag(what info it has stored), and an option to enable or disable it would rock!

i see the pros and cons of rfid but the cons outweigh the pros.
nys was going to be the first with rfid license but from what i remember, dont quote me if im wrong, was that it was taken down because no one accepted it.
i wouldnt be in favor of a true rfid be it in our new passports, licenses, implanted or not. the drivers license was called "real id act".
the rfid brings back a memory from 2001. after 9/11 a family opted in to be the first with the "rfid implants". the mother was on tv and speaking for the family saying how "safe" she feels now being monitored 24/7.
verichip was on cnn years ago and if you google you will find more info on it..
verichip was merged with positive id corp, http://www.positiveidcorp.com/about-us.html

Um, I think the OP was talking about an RFID reader.
I don't want an RFID chip in my phone. I'd love to have an RFID reader though. The non-paranoid among us could use it for inventory control, keeping track of where our keys are (assuming there's signal strength), etc. And the paranoid among us could periodically scan ourselves to see whether Big Brother had slipped a microchip into our nether regions while we slept.

I'm not trying to impress you, just stating that "having the guvment" come in is not going to kill the forum.
And the forums and groups I belong to are not dead, just not nearly as well known anymore. And we like that just fine.
As for breaking the rules, um, we do that every single day here, unlocking your phone for use with unapproved roms is breaking the rules. Get used to that.

any chance the mods can loosen up a little bit

I see alot of theads being closed constantly, kinda hampers freedom of speach. Please dont ban me, I just think you guys need to step back and take a breather sometimes before jumping on the close button.
All this time could be put into making my LIVE wallpaper switching program, I have money and google. But I would rather pay than google how to script that out.

Most of the thread being closed have dedicated threads in the stickies sections.
Why waste space and time? I mean I think you could go through and count the number of Apple vs. Samsung threads that have been closed, you'd need more then 2 hands. Same with LTE 4G.

I was getting a hand-job off my new girlfriend when I asked, "How are you so good at this?" "Years of practice," she said. "Bit of a player in your day?" I laughed. "No," she replied, "my dad had no arms."

Yes, some moderators can come off as arrogant. I can see their frustration as the threads get bogged down with the same questions over and over again. Although, they need to accept their position as moderator and not allow their frustrations to spew onto others. Lesson... Read, read, read... Your question has been answered 99% of the time. Especially in development threads. The same question asked repeatedly can slow down development, because instead of working on improving the device, they have to answer the same questions 50 times.

Know them, follow them. They are in place for good reasons and frankly, IMO i think most forums could be moderated much heavier. The fact is, 4 million users cannot all be moderated so we just appreciate the work we get from our mods, regardless.

I wrote '****' on my son's forehead while he was sleeping the night before his birthday.
We couldn't afford the iPad he wanted, but he'll still enjoy the feeling of owning one.

Is it just me or is K perry a dog. I guess the appeal is shes just ugly enough men think they got a shot at her, which makes her more attractive in their minds? Id rather get hep from Pam Anderson any day of the week.

I like katy for her music
Like Omggzz its soo awesome
And her lyrics are AAAmazing
"do you ever feel like a plastic bag, drifting through the wind, wanting to start again.
do you ever feel, feel so paper thin, like a house of cards, one blow from caving in."
Like totally.

They're merely pushing all the talk/threads to the apple vs Samsung hub thread. Would you rather have that, or an ocean of apple vs Samsung threads flooding the first two pages
