Black 4.0 shadow to use "official" hermes Rom

Hi guys,
JJ has hinted that the next incarnation of black.. will be based on the official hermes rom. Whether it has been leaked to him by htc or however he got it, am looking forward to it.
I guess that leaking the rom to him will allow him to beta test the rc release to find out if there are any outstanding issues. A wise move by htc IMHO, ensuring that the true final release will be nice and stable and tested....
Looking forward to it in anticipation

any hints when it will be available 4.0 black shadow

Who's JJ?
Is he a member here at XDA?

I'm antiipating the release of this ROM as well...There are so many different ones floating around now I'm not sure which one I want to stick with...

I am just a nobody bro, but I hope your being sarcastic. JJ is
freaking awesome and I am pretty confident countless others share this opinion. I'm sure your probably joking though, I just think that talented people should be respected especially if they contribute freely so who cares where they go or what they do. Just my opinion.

then what is his site ?? care to share?

I'm sorry,
I should'nt have said that.
I feel like such a idiot.
I mean, It takes a real childish panzy, to bad mouth someone just because they decided to take their work to www.4winmobile.com

Um, so? Were your feelings hurt or something? Do you take your browsing experience here to another level by adding emotion? I don't know about anyone besides myself, but the guy's made countless contributions to this community with his ROM's, and I applaud him and thank him for taking HIS time to do so.

Doesn't news travel fast from here !

I think we may be looking at a tad bit of sarcasm here folks, seeing as Berdinkerdickle is fairly active over at Black's new home.
Either that or he is a childish panzy.......

Another spam thread of a crappy black rom and the dumb chef who thought XDA was too dumb for him and too many low class chefs so he went to the ELITE forum where he rules as the Moderator We don't need his stinking ROM, There are far better rom's and far better chefs then that guy here on XDA who don't look down on the users and gets pissy at every poster.

But is it nessecarilly a good thing our cooks use an official ROM?
I mean often the official ROM hasn't all the functionality that a beta or developers ROM has. And the current 'beta's" are so stabile, I can't imagine an official ROM is that more stabile or faster.
I guess we don't know it till we have one...

Another useless crybaby post...

Calm down ladies.... its like handbags at dawn here. The reason he left was that the black rom had outgrown here in xda.. His one post thread that he was allowed was 1000 posts strong, which is to unwieldy for anyone to manage. At the other site he has got a whole sub forum to himself, which is really what is needed to manage a rom that is as popular as his...
you need to be able to seperate the bug reports from the "thanks dude" posts and the "how do I update to this rom" posts. I am sure that lv will have the same problem when they release their new rom...
Until xda becomes a bit more flexble, all the decent chefs are going to get frustrated and move on.
I for one would love to have a single site to visit, however it is not that hard to visit both, as they both have different strong points.
BTW any idea when the new LV rom will be out?

Congratulations, half of your 130 posts are about bad mouthing me and boycotting 4WM who has does nothing to you.
Just stick to your other roms and you will be fine.......
Gee, there still seems to be some ****WITS floating around.
And yes, the ROM i have is the official, with the official kernel and its stable, fast, all the LATEST OEM APPS, but I guess its ****e as DAFTEK, aka ****WIT has put it......

I am confused by the motives of people who post purely to bad mouth people.
Ok - so JJ decided to support his rom elsewhere, so what? How does that hurt XDA or any of its members? Its not like it actually stops anyone from getting it, or getting support?
Oh and its free! It's not like anyone has signed up to a contract...

Get Black Shadow Here ! Fast Mirror

ROM chef as requested his work not be shown here. Thread has also been closed.

wow, thanks man

See the previous thread, specifically the last post.

The chef has requested that his ROM not be mirrored from XDA Developers. I think we should respect his request.

micro$oft have do the same request...
so please let mirror this rom...

Is the revised version now on the mirror? With the fix to the HSDPA comm?
Can't get to their portal to see updates .

The original Shadow.exe file available on the official site has been replaced by a Shadow.rar file (new version) so I have removed the Shadow.exe from my mirror too.
In other terms ... LATEST VERSION COME AND GET IT WHILE IT LASTS !!!

Well OK... as a chef hes a genius, as a person, with his attitude, he deserves NOTHING.
I'm sure MS would prefer us not to talk about their stuff, I'm sure the operators would prefer us not to talk about their stuff.
What right does he have to ask this?

Hey all, does anyone know if this is the fixed version resolving the dll conflict and startup issues? I would go to the 4winmobile black forum but it's down at the moment... been down for an hour or so... I think they're upgrading their forum software...

A little respect and a THANK YOU to the creator of what you are now reading and wanting to download and use wouldn't hurt you know. I'm not in anyway affiliated with JJ, but I do respect his wishes since we are the ones sitting around waiting for him to finish this colossal task of cooking a ROM for us... at least we can say thanks and not attack him on top..... my 0.02...
[edit] by the way, even if 4winmobile.com is down, his site http://wmblack.info/ which has the 100% latest download is up

OK JJ already requested that HIS ROM not be mirrored on anything else.
This thread will be closed.

I know http://wmblack.info/ may have the latest release but the http://wmblack.info/ website doesn't tell us if the release has the dll conflict and soft reset issues resolved (hang during shadow splash). just wondering if this release is OK. I'm sure there are plenty of users waiting for this release to stabilize before going through the install process and then discover my hermes just hangs at some splash screen and have to go through the cycle of doing soft and hard resets....

Downloaded from Wmblack.info about an hour ago.
Flashed the Rom and no problems.
Nice.
But have removed the HTC homeplugin. Preferred my own combination, but a nice try.
Re the ROM discussion on XDA - whilst I am a fan of JJ I do not see how trying to restrict discussion on here is practical or the logic in it. As long as everyone is aware that if you want to feedback to JJ and recieve support from JJ then you need to do it on the official website. People can chat about the ROM wherever they like, they may just be misinformed or not receive any help, but that is their choice.
I do not think that trying to block additional mirrors will be practical although as I have not had any problems with the main downoad page, so not sure why mirrors are needed.

Says who?
and why the hell should it be closed?
Whats so special about a jumped up little **** who took his ball in and went home in a huff?
As I said in my first post - as a chef, hes great. I have no problem with that, but his arsey stuck up arrogant attitude makes me sick.
So tell me.... We cook and mess with ROMS. Its all frowned upon, and let we discuss it.
Why the hell should we be banned in case he gets his knickers in a twist?

Did JJ break a promise to you? Did he get your sister pregnant? Did he welch on a major business deal with you?
I simply cannot understand why you are so aerated about his decision to host and support his free roms elsewhere...

Just An Idea : Read Please.....

Sorry To Everybody Who Answered Below, But Due To Problems With Hard Drive, I Lost All Roms And Cabs On My Computer. So If A Admin Or Mod Reading This Post, Please Delete It

that would be awesome. when I first came to the forum, I had a real hard time sorting through all the releases.
But the only problem is, you must be updating that thread frequently as there is a new release every few days.
Also it would be even more awesome if you could add a release date next to each link so that people know what is new and what is old and what is being updated.

yeah i would do that, if everyone agrees, will start it next tuesday onwards....

Nice Idea One stop Shop .. Please go ahead and post it.

Go for it, and maybe someone will STICKY it!!

thats the idea, hopefully it will be stickied, gotta get bank holiday weekend outta the way, also might see a couple new roms in next few days....

Fantabulous.

I have the same thing but with all games and apps for the Hermes, too bad I cant post them

Hehe, yeah well for the unscrupulous among this crowd that's what that OTHER site is for.

Good plan Batman, sticky should be defo applied!!!
but i think there would have to be a way of stopping people posting any questions about the ROM or software otherwise the thread will turn into a messy ROM&CAB bank/Support thread!
Also if you can only post 5 attachments on each post, so unless you are going to upload CABs to Rapidshare (or whatever the you use) and then provide weblinks.
Also i would consider not using Rapidshare because once you download a ROM from it you get banned from download for 30-120 mins depending on the network traffic at the time, i think you should consider using SENDSPACE, MEGAUPLOAD, THERE IS LOADS MORE UNLIMITED ONES HERE
Last point, think the thread should only have your Posts on it, cantact a MOD with the idea and ask them if it is possable

A great response for a senior member of this forum.
If it is not possible just say so! ( although for this question i get the picture )
There will always be newcomers who will ask questions from members of sites. In some cases they will be the most basic thing (to you) but to us it is a question that is genuine.
If they annoy you, don't respond at all.
Maybe there should be a Sticky folder at the start of each Thread named (questions from newbies) or something along those lines, that the senior members that remember when they were the newbies could respond to those questions, which obviously offend you.
Just my 2 cents.
Peter

hope this helps
if you google for "HTC Hermes animated wallpaper" (without the quotes)
you'll come across some interesting articles

XDA-Developers Needs A Motto

Hello fellow XDA users,
Do you think XDA developers needs a motto (slogan, quote, etc.)?
Leave your ideas here on this thread!
I go first! "Feel the Revelution"

xda-developers
"answering the same questions since early 2000"
or
"bricking noobs' phones since 2005"
or
"where you can never be happy with your device"

If it wasn't already a TV Show, I'd go for "Ready, Steady, Cook!"

How about a bricked phones counter instead of a slogan at the top of the page?
