I just got a system update notification. I already have gingerbread 2.3 OTA update ( which was a mistake!) It says it updated my system to 4.23. Anybody else done it? What exactly did it update? Is it beneficial to becoming rootable? (Fingers crossed)
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
i thinks its just a little update by htc to fix a bug and i think its not really beneficial for rooting but dont worry devs are workin on root again and u will soon have root again
Got a bunch of people that say the Dev's are working on it, but no confirmation from said Dev's.
Got a bunch of Flamers that hate seeing the same question asked everyday.
Got a bunch of people that don't care to search asking every day.
Why don't we just get it rooted so the Flamers and Noobs can quite being little Biatches to each other. Every damn forum on the interwebs has people asking the same questions, regardless if they've been asked before, so Flamers need to jump off a bridge.
Certain Devs are indeed trying to find the exploit so that those with the OTA 2.3.3 update can root their devices. Having said that, it is unfair to expect them to solely devote their time to doing so and forgo time spent with family, close friends as well as job associates. People forget and/or fail to recognize that many of them have families and careers and that they are doing XDA related stuff voluntarily. Please continue to be patient. The exploit will come.

He should have just added some credits. His roms were better than those he "borrowed" from. He also updated far more frequently and was always responding to questions.
What a shame.

Im not against the rules or anything else Im sure they are helpful for the bigger picture.:cyclops: I am however stating its ironic that he did better with there stuff than they did. IMO when a dev does that its usually buggy or simply not as good , his roms were always up to date and he had stuff out much quicker than others.
At the end of the day everyone here is modding someone elses work to begin with so getting banned for using a modification to an open source or Samsung based software is just weird to me.
Isnt that why theres two dev forums to begin with ?
Just so that we are all clear on this subject. He is not Banned.
Like someone above said, he still has a ROM in one of the Note sections (can't remember if NI or NII atm). I am one of the Mods over those sections as well so I have seen his threads and activity.
Now I don't know what exactly went down and why the thread was locked and even if I did, I'm not sure I can speak freely. I was called away on a family emergency that weekend and when I got back it was locked and the other thread about this was in full swing. It seemed like a kang job, but as I said, I do not know the particulars. I am only posting in this thread to let you know that he was not banned and chose to host his S3 ROM elsewhere.
Please don't make this thread into a pissing contest about who's was better and random speculation about what happened. Plus, if he is not here to defend himself, he shouldn't be attacked (not saying that any of the ones that posted attacked him in any way *more for future posters, if this thread stays open).

Seems like you're arguing semantics. Only thing I see wrong is not giving credit. (ill surrender the end point that it's xdas way of managing things and that's fine.)
However you and everyone else are working off Google and to a lesser extent Samsungs work to begin with he only borrowed what you tweaked in someone else's code to begin with ;don't know why devs feel they should have special treatment. Having followed android *devs* since the early G1 days I find the current state rather egotistical and counter productive at times.
Again I say... I understand about not giving credit but alluding to him being a thief is ironic considering what is actually being done.
You say I have no idea, that's fine perhaps I don't . But proclaiming thievery with exclamation points doesn't exactly educate or inform anyone of anything let alone show that I'm in the dark on the matter.

Credit is the least he can ask. Do you know or even have an idea how long it takes to make a rom? De compiling recompiling apks tweaking smali. **** I tried to theme a couple pngs and 15 toggles and it took me a couple days just reading to figure out what to do! They have to edit a lot of files. It's long tedious work and they do it all for free!!
Regardless if it was based off Google code. They edited and made it unique. It is now theirs. For example for school you have to write a paper about Lincoln. You research about Lincoln and final write your paper. What your saying is that the paper you wrote is not yours because you pretty much just reworded facts you read online. (provided you didn't copy paste) the paper is now your own paper that you can claim rights too.

I was that at one point also, when the G1 came out and JesusFreke was making roms, and people had to use ADB to obtain root and be able to flash things. I learned since then and read and read and read. The problem now a days is that most don't care to read a little, or at all. Most of the questions asked in a thread are answered, or been discussed, or don't even belong in the dev section. This is extremely aggravating to the devs, or themers, when they right up a huge OP and no one uses it, and just clutters up their dev thread with useless questions and/or nonconstructive criticism. I don't blame him for quitting or locking the thread, if people feel it's at its prime, then leave it alone and don't touch it anymore. Most of the TouchWiz roms have the best version yet to come, or they came and went a while ago. Most of the mods they incorporated are flashable on your own, anyways. Thank him and respect decisions, or use one of the other 10+ TouchWiz roms.

Jesusfreke was the pioneer of modding for Android. Without him I believe that we would not be as far with android as devs, manufacturers, or even android its self.
Look at thouchwiz its self with the toggles in the notification Window. This came from cm. We the community can end up pushing for devs with true innovation to go back underground where their work is not seen in mass people, Google, or manufacturers. Then android may end up missing what could become greatness all for petty arguments. I follow one such dev in a private forum and it's a shame he was forced to by thing like this.

I would love it if every rom posting would go back to the format of what is working and not...it is hard to keep flashing roms just to see what is working or not...plus I'm sure I'm wearing out my phone flashing 5 roms in a day just to find out they all have the same flaws or not or even if it was fixed..ie does video calling work, or hml, or any other feature that this phone can normally do...remember when devs use to have 2 lists in the op and pictures so you could window shop for your rom and not have to spend the time downloading, wiping and flashing just to restore your nandroid because you don't like the look or the fact some things don't work...it would really help and it only takes a couple of minutes.....thank all of you for your time and development of this device...

Although I agree, your going tone other get zero response or (and more probable) catch flack about being demanding.
While typically, the android community development is free, everyone has became accustomed to the idea that eta's, change logs, working/not working lists are simply below them. Perhaps in their eyes it is. What I would like to remind everyone is this...time isn't limitless, and can be very valuable to some. If you don't like the community feedback (ie. Asking for these lists; small stuff) than maybe you should just (loosely) develop and/or cook ROMs for your own personal use. Xda is a community... A community built on knowledge, user base, and the good ol' boy system.
Just remember what we are here for. We all own a T989 and want to make our devices outlast even the newer models.

You're assuming that people will read and thus not need to ask. As someone who spent over a year developing for the vibrant I couldn't even count the times that I either directed someone's questions to the op that contained the answer or just ignored the questions all together. Now as just an onlooker who casually flashes I read the op and if I don't see the answer I want I watch the thread and let others ask/answer or do my own research like checking out gerrit or just move on and find something else.
When I was building ROMs I would spend hours at the computer and by the time I got around to posting my work I may have forgotten one or two things so change logs were usually only partial.
Getting the latest software on your phone while free does take a little effort on the part of the user.

Well the reason this is happening is because 4.2 just came out. People are curious to know what works and what doesn't. Devs haven't had enough time to check all of the glitches and bugs. Devs also rely on us for fixing bugs because they don't always have the time to do it.
As per the same questions being asked over and over, people simply don't know what the search button does.

Wow! Someone just makes a basic request and gives thanks to developers, and suddenly everyone is all over him and getting all defensive about developers feelings or something. How did it turn into this??
I kind of agreed with the request as far as how nice it might be to know pros and cons of each rom without reading through pages and pages of useless posts in the dev threads to find out each detail. It seems to me that most developers appreciate it when more people are using their rom (and obviously people appreciate the rom they're using) sooo...it might help people to understand what they're flashing and they might be more likely to flash a rom that they understand from a end-user point of view.
If developers don't want to add a list of what works and what doesn't to the OP, then they don't have to. If developers want to help flashers in their decision-making process (and likely boost the number of people using their rom), then adding such a list might help.
As far as I can tell, that's the end of the story.
So if the Op doesn't state what's working, then people have the right to clutter threads and annoy them, right? Its a win win situation, unless devs like being asked the same question a billion times. It could help keep the clutter to a minimum but its up to the devs. Not that I'm demanding a perfect op, but there are reasons as to why people ask and ask.
1. Too lazy to read.
2. Fast response wanted(see 1)
3. Op doesn't state what's working.
4. Search doesn't always help( at least for me on the xda app.)
5. People want a solution.

OP, your post has been noted and understood. But so that there isn't any bashing/flaming happening, closing the thread, as I removed a couple "not needed" type of posts already in this thread.
Thank You.
It took a long time with requests to make the app better, asking for updates and new functions and so on before I finally asked JB media to send me my money back today.
I bought the Premium App in January last year because I wanted to donate my most preferred android development site. Sad to see that they don't care about the thoughts and opinions of their users and did not even update the app for over a year!
There would be so much that needs to be fixed but nothing ever happend. I'd ask other buyers to do the same as I did if you are as unsatisfied as I am, because this is unacceptable, craving money for doing nothing!

I think maybe you have bad timing, because we just pushed out an update to the premium version to the app store. A few minutes ago. We did a staged release in case there are any issues with it, but either way you should get the new update within 24 hours.
Sorry for the delay, we wanted to push out new updates but this was a major version change which is why there was a gap in updates. Hopefully you'll be satisfied with the changes.
I know that. Just never saw this thread, I swear! I'm not too dumb to use a forum's app, except this app is really, really bad lol. I think the money for the XDA app is better spent for Tapatalk 4, it's even cheaper atm because it's on a 99¢ sale this week. :thumbup:

I saw that after I sent my request. I really hope it's satisfying, because it's not usable as it was.

At least it's more usable now and this is what counts most. I can live with an app that's not eye candy but I barely with one which is a pain in the ass to use.

Why not xda release a app based on forum runner?
Not many of us use forum runner but I find it MORE COMPATIBLE wid xda.
Following are the things I get in forum runner but not on tapatalk/xda app
♣ ability to report a post
♣ mod options for RCs shows as per their own thread not in every thread
♣no reply option present in closed thread (tapatalk gives option to reply even in closed thread bt ultimately says thread locked)
♣member title can be seen without click on profile pic.
Although it has some missing features but they can be added if xda adopts it..
Just my view..
Thanks

Forum runners report system is not compatible with xda's own, home-brewed report system.

seen u after a long time
and that home brewed system cant b integrated wid taptatalk, right?
so i guess forum runner is the only option left for one who uses xda MAINLY from a mobile wid slow internet (i do report a lot )

As I said, forum runner isn't compatible. The reports done by this app ends up as pm to the entire team, which is not how the browser-based reports work. No matter which app people use, it barely takes 10 secs to switch to a browser to report
So, for the currently forseeable future, tapatalk and forum runner remain incompatible with our reports system. As for the rest, the xda app did get updated recently, so things aren't as dull on that front anymore
