I didn't want to get POSTED IN WRONG SECTION'd, but goddamn that pull down is fugly!
Am I the only one that hates the freaking stretched out look in landscape? Why have devs held on to this thing from Manup's theme? It looks HORRIBLE to me, especially on Myn's.
/endrant
I was here getting all pissed over it when I came across the NinjaMorph how-to guide. I fixed it my damn self, lol.
BTW: framework-res.apk is what you're editing -- there's an error on the 1st page that had me searching for the wrong thing.
Thanks for reading the rant and possibly shaking your head at me. I had to get the rage out on the internets and not in real life.
Myns Rom is ugly period. Slow and a stupid idea of a Rom. Who bloats it up when speed is much more important. Imo.

That's just impolite, Novan. It's fine to say you don't like it, but Myn works very hard and each release includes improvements as requested by his users - he always takes notice of suggestions. Warm is also one of the most-used ROMs in the community, so he must be doing something right. Keep that stuff to yourself.

I just donated to his ROM... I like it, and I like how he tries different things... to each his/her own, but there is no reason to badmouth someone for trying new things...
That is my opinion and having an opinion is not impolite.....

ok im not gonna keep feeding the troll but the difference is car manufacturers are FOR PROFIT. XDA devs do this for free as a service to the development community. There is nothing wrong with voicing your opinion, theres no issue with that, but when you do it like you did, then it is a problem, which is why everyone in the thread is screaming at you for your comments.

There is nothing wrong with expressing your opinion about something...even if it is negative, but the manner in which you, and many others, choose to do so is horribly impolite. There is never a need to be hateful our hurtful. Nothing is improved by it, and nothing you said had any chance of leading to a better product. Why? Because you gave zero information. Saying "It is stupid" doesn't help the designer do a better job, out give him a better idea of what people want. All you have done is bash someone else's work. It's your prerogative, dude, but "manners make the world go round" is the saying for a reason. Being a douche and then calling others childish doesn't make you ironic...or at least not in a good way.

Gosh. Let's see....
Myns Rom is slow because of the theaming and transitions. The Orange and brown duo is ugly and reminds me of homes with those old 70's carpets.
Is that still hateful?
I don't even hate it because I have tons of roms to chose from.

You seriously can't win on this forum at all. Lol.
One: I used the search to find an answer to a problem that *I* personally had.
Two: I searched through the thread for Myn's ROM and couldn't find the solution.
Three: I Google'd a bit to find an answer to the problem and couldn't find a solution.
Four: I searched a few more times through the Theme section and found a possible solution and read.
Now if at any one of those points I posted a thread as to how to fix it, I'm sure some one would have posted I should have searched and that the thread is useless. So I solved it for myself and post here that I was frustrated and needed to vent and now I'm creating an inflammatory thread. LOL.
I might go and message him, but I figured if people had the same opinion as me, the ROM wouldn't have gone through however many revisions and kept the pull down. Therefore, I kept my mouth shut and didn't bother messaging him. Oh and when it was in Manups custom theme, I posted in that thread and got no response - if you look through my posts, you'd probably find it. I mean, hey I've got a total of 14 posts and my phone is all customized!
I've been on since before I had an Evo reading and trying to understand things. It's my FIRST smartphone, lol. So give me a break. I tried.
simple solution, if you dont like it, dont use it, just keep it moving

What have you developed that gives you the right to talk **** about other peoples Roms. I love how kids are always acting hard on the net but then in person are softer than a carton of eggs. Myn like it or not has put tons of work into his Roms next time just send him a message.

I used to be a flashoholic trying at least 1 new rom daily. After I was done having my fun I'd go back to cm6, then it was back to the cm6 4g rom. Now that I'm on cm7 rc2 I honestly have no need to flash new roms anymore. I love cm7 but it kinda killed my flashing because I have yet to run into anything that I like better. I've tried miui and like it but the new gingerbread rom says it's got a few bugs in it, plus no 4g. Don't know why the 4g thing kills it for me because I went without it while using cyanogenmod releases but now for some reason i feel the need for it. I'm not opposed to sense roms, in fact became really fond of the frost rom but still kept going back to cm. So I'm conclusion thank you to the cm team for making my phone simply amazing but damn you for being so good that I don't want to try anything else.
Sent from my now just a fancy phone and no longer my all day source of flashing entertainment phone
Your thread title indicates that you are bored with your EVO but your post sounds as if you are just simply happy with your EVO running the CM7 ROM. The title is a bit misleading but I understand how you feel. Your phone is great and you are happy with it and not flashing roms on a daily basis... which is a good thing.
Mabe the title should say you are not bored with your phone but quite happy with it and no longer feel the need to try diferent roms?
I'm bored with Android, not my Evo. I found webOS to be a more exciting OS to use on a phone than Android and iOS.
I just got my flashing days started! It seems I do the same thing you do: keep going back to a particular ROM, mine being Warm Z.
I've just started looking into threads about people posting their home screen and I'm trying to really figure out what I wanna do with that! Really, so many possibilities to do with home screens, it'll definitely keep me entertained for a while.
I just wish the Evo was better at gaming. Overall it's a fantastic phone, but i do like gaming, and with all the hd games and cool emulators coming out, the evo seems to be showing its limits i think. Just holding out for the 3d.
The evo had an outdated gpu before it was even released.

I'm extremely happy with my phone it's just that i would be on it all day looking for new roms to try, waiting for them to download at work, possibly flashing them at work or on the way home, playing around with the new rom when I got home for hours. I love cm7 and my phone but now I have nothing to do.
For months my routine involved wasting hours flashing roms and kernels now all I do is get my ass kicked at Droid words by my girlfriend, I guess that's payback for all the hours I ignored her because I was playing with my phone

Yeah used to flash more in the past, checking everything out but always going back to CM6. Now with CM7 I have only flashed one, Warm Z, and was back shortly. Not so much bored as I am content and happy with CM7. Feels nice to have settled, actually.

Thank you for correcting me. I'm sure you did it to help another person out. My mistake was probably nothing more than an auto correct as I typed this out on my phone. You're so kind with the sharing of your infinite wisdom of the English language. Thank you very much. To help you out you didn't put a period after your 2nd rule, and I believe you only spaced once when you should space twice after the first sentence in your first rule. Next time when you criticize someone on their grammar maybe you can use correct sentence structure.
Thanks once again.

Ok, I'm properly going to get a lot of negative people on here telling me to go F$%K myself or whatever which will properly include the supposedly "developers" of these so called roms of the links below as well BUT I'm going to say it anyways!
What happened to all the creative developers on here? I mean I admire XxXViRuSXxX, Cyanogen and echoside to name a few BUT I think the rest need to step up their game because looking at other forums on here and is not even close to the quality of work! I'm not sure about everyone else on here because every time I think I got you guys figured out, I get surprised BUT I'm tired of seeing a CM7 ROM with a theme on it and being posted in the development section! Oh and is not only CM7 Roms....is Sense Roms as well with NOTHING to add or anything....is an exact copy of the freaking rom! I could understand if you made a change to something other then a freaking .png then I wouldn't be as mad but when you just switch out .png's and call yourself a developer...COME ON, that's BULL!!
Now I know what's coming (I hope..lol), you guys are going to say that I'm wrong and that I need to chill out BUT I would like for someone to explain these roms below to me.......BECAUSE they don't provide nothing special except a theme!

I could pull up more but I think 3 was enough to prove my point.....
If you going to make a duplicate rom with a theme then do me and hopefully everyone else a favor and just make a .zip and post it in the themes and apps section because is getting OLD....it really is!
Oh and sorry for the rant but I just needed to get that off my chest....LOL

Well, let us look at those three links you posted. You kind of lose your credibility by using those as your main argument.
Anyone with half a brain will realize that those threads look like failures. They barely have posts in them. People respond to the ROMs that interest them--and ROMs like that don't interest people, simple as that.
There's no way to just make people stop doing that, but it is quite obvious that the people who do that don't get many hits. They don't contribute anything, so people don't pay attention to them.
We have some amazing developers here, like Cyanogen, Virus, Myn, and so on. You said it yourself.
The development forums for the Evo are quite active, and so it is pretty obvious that you would have people who want to try to look like developers posting carbon copy ROMs.
I agree with you on the basic idea of the thread though; you aren't a ROM developer if you simply make a theme and throw some apps in. You're a theme developer. I would enjoy more creative and interesting ROMs, but I also at the same time feel that the Evo developer community delivers very well, and I'm glad we have all of the great developers we do.

I've always understood that. >=(
It just seems to be getting worse and worse. It's not a competition here to see who gets the most downloads or posts in a thread...
You have dev's fighting, mods banning people for infractions that are minor compared to some of the stuff going on.
because the community is huge and the rom selection us even bigger and heads tend to swell easily.
I really don't think the mods are strict enough on this forum, one example being the cyanogenmod nightly thread, out of the thousands of posts there maybe 20% are about the actual rom. On other cases i've seen people jump on new devs calling them fake because they sounded like a dev that was once banned from this forum. I really don't get it, **** I could care less if someone was banned awhile back if they are developing new and exciting things for this phone who am I to judge? It's the devs and the mods they create that make this phone incredible, not the name.

I agree 100% with you. Everyone needs a little spankin' once in awhile but to be fully banned should take something very serious. Especially for the productive people.

I was so excited when INC2 was rooted, and we had roms just waiting for us to try out. I really appreciate all the devs who bust ass to root our devices and build roms. I am currently running cyanogen nightlies and have no complaints, but I do have some concerns. I previously had a Droid 2, and really thought it had a solid selection of stable roms, and most were quite unique. When Liberty came out, I was amazed at how well it was thought out & designed. It really was creative and feature rich, whereas most other roms seem happy with just removing the bloatware and overclocking. At this point you are probably saying, "shut the hell up and go make your own rom, or go give the Liberty team a reach-around and have them build a rom for your phone". Good, cause I was thinking the same thing. So let me cut to the chase, Cyanogen is beast, and MIUI is cool if you want your droid to be an iphone. The other roms don't really spark much interest, they have different names, but are practically the same. Is there a lack of interest developing for the INC2? Seems like it, I would know, I am very important, and have a degree from ITT.
The phone hasn't been out long and the majority of people aren't able to root yet. A couple Fascinate devs just picked up DInc2's so once they're able to root there will be more support.
The thing has been out for what, a few months? Give it time.
I'm extremely happy with just MIUI and CM7. Best ROMs out there.

Here's the deal perm root has not been out long. We have a Lot of options available from the dev community considering.
There are more devs getting DInc2s in their hands as time passes. Some are even devving for it without having one.

looks like I was right, some of you were thinking I should go make my own rom. Reminds me of this one time, when I went to purchase a new car. After test driving it I told a few folks on my favorite car forum how I thought the car was lacking in new features. They all told me to go build my own car as well. Well crap, looks like I have some work ahead of me. Look knipp I donate to every rom dev that I have been impressed with. Roms have the potential to generate revenue for these devs, and consumer criticism helps with making a rom that people want to use. I think it is great that you know more about phones than I do, they should give you a medal for that, or a cookie, your choice. I am sorry that you found my poll offensive. For some odd reason I thought most people would see it for it it was, A JOKE. Next time I will use a more sarcastic font, if you think that might help.
Thanks to those of you less sensitive types for informing me about the latest from developments. I can't wait to try em' all out.

My main reason for being upset it is I know a few of these devs and they work hard and have rough lives at home..and don't ask for donations. Therefore criticism should be posted in a request not a demand. So as nice as they are, they don't always get the respect they deserve. I got a little too upset, and for that I'm sorry.

So I've decided to start this thread because I've noticed something that I want to try and get changed for the better of this community and to help a person that I think deserves it.
What I'm trying to acomplish here is to start a petition that could potentially get him his status back. He deserves it in my opinion. And for the most part, I think you guys might too. So just place your vote in the pole and try and concentrate on all the work he produces for use and his attitude NOW. Please don't hold on to those grudges if you have any. Thanks.
I just noticed that one of are very Recognized Developers here on XDA (Task650) has recently lost his "Recognized Developer" status. So I decided to take it upon myself to find out why. Task650 explained to me that he recently flew off the handle and went on a "noob hunting spree" as he stated. He openly admitted to me that he was wrong for doing so and mentioned that he felt bad about it. Then went on to tell me that he has just forgotten about it and moved on with doing his best to better the SGS3 Forums and XDA as a whole. It was pretty cool to hear.
I know that he has been dealing with some pretty hardcore emotional issues with his 6 year old little girl having cancer. I can understand that sometimes we go through things in life that are that horrible, and we as human beings can act out in certain places that we normally would not. It's just something that happens and we move on from it. I can see that that's exactly what he has done. His attitude around these forums is back on track with what I've known from him and I only see him contributing and helping everyone out here on XDA as much as he possibly can. I don't think I've ever seen anyone here spend so much time updating his roms, submitting patches, and responding to others in such a helpful manner like I've seen him do. Now that's the exact type of person I believe deserves a "Recognized Developer" status. Hopefully the majority of you will agree whether or not you hold a grudge against him. I know he doesn't hold a grudge against any of you.
I DO NOT WANT ANY TROLLING OR FLAMING IN THIS THREAD! IF YOU DON'T HAVE ANYTHING CONSTRUCTIVE TO SAY. DON'T POST HERE! YOU WILL BE REPORTED IMMEDIATELY IF YOU DO!!!
Freaking out every once in a while doesn't make him less a developer or take away his skill and generosity of time and effort.

I agree with everything you just said.

Everyone goes through tough times and it shows that by owning up to what happened and why and accepting resposibility, then moving on to make things better overall shows he deserves the status back.
I fuxx wit the boiii!!!!! He got dat "celebrity status" roun here...
Cuttn up the bud on my SAMSUNG GALAXY S3.... #KeepIt1Hunid
I agree. He's a fantastic developer, puts out a very high quality ROM; and frankly, if he comes off a bit harsh... its probably something you should have googled. I've learned a ton, just from lurking his thread and asking the occasional question. Development software is essentially beta/testing software, so if you're going to run it... learn.
I flashed half a dozen ROMs to this device before I tried theirs, and now my only flash is for the latest update, which is routinely put out more frequently than any other aosp ROM I've seen.
Task is involved, interested, and more proactive than any paid developer I've ever known, on any platform... and he does gorgeous work for free. Its impossible not to recognize him as a developer, no matter what his title in the forum is.
Edit: didn't know about his kid either.... now I like the guy even more.

+1. I just started flashing a month ago and Task 14 was my first rom. Great dev, great support, just a reasonable straight up dude. Thanks Task...you deserve it, for simply releasing quality work! Past is the past, simple as that

He's a great dev and he is only following and enforcing the no spoon feed and always search rule

I've seen plenty of other developers on XDA and other forums get fed up when people don't search or decide to get an attitude because something isn't working for them or they don't get the response they wanted. Some have even left XDA because of stuff like this. Totally unnecessary. Imagine what this world would be like without Task. Very, very dark. He's only human, most of us wouldn't have half the restraint he does.
Hopefully he'd just start his own site and carry on. We need him more than he needs us.... he's just sharing something great he did for his own satisfaction.
The guy that made my HTC merge bearable till my uscc contract was up did just that.
+1 Task makes the best ROM I've ever used on 5 devices. Amazing guy.

Task is human.... OK, maybe superhuman, but we all get tired of out of control noobs wallowing in their laziness and/or ineptitude on these forums, asking the same old questions and not reading the OP. I myself am a noob around here, but developers, mods, and fellow xda-ers who chastise those who fail to follow forum rules have helped me realize it's better to do my own homework. I've seen Task's etiquette improve since the incident on the SGS3 AOKP thread, so it's safe to say he is truly sorry and deserves to have his "recognized developer"status reinstated.
And BTW, unicorns dream of Task's ROMs!

lol wasnt there a "BAN Task" thread to? Good ROMs, quick updates.
I'm 100% with Task.
He could overreact a little bit once but there are some users that push it hard. Push it really hard!!!

Eh who cares what title sits under his name. We all recognize him as a good developer and that's all that really matters.

yeah i think i remember something like that. it was kinda funny considering everyone ended up voted that the OP of that thread get banned. lmao.
is there any particular reason you decided to vote NO?
Part of the rules and he broke them, I think he will get his status back in due time. Good Luck

ok so i work hard too and we might get 1000 noobs in our thread too, you don't see me or anyone of us freaking out. im sorry but yeah things happen in life and mistakes are made, it doesn't mean you dictate what xda will do or will not do. im not against humanity or wheel of life, but if you are short tempered then let the mods do the job, you don't freak out bluntly on a thread like that. Im with what xda decides best. If you really care for him then help him with his work make his life easier, learn things that are done, fix things that can be fixed by yourself and if its a last resort you can raise a question and then if you get freaked out upon then im sorry that dev is either short tempered or life is not being right with him/her, but then again if life is not being right then don't create a UFC in xda cause it'll just splatter blood everywhere and it just doesn't make sense then to do anything. Ive made mistakes too here and yeah i'll admit i was infracted 5 times and yet i learned from those infractions and i learned to control my temper and learn from mistakes and move on. Xda did what they did for a reason and let them decide what they did is right for community and for everyone's well being, if he doesn't have a title of "recognized developer it won't stop him from doing his work. Also for cluttering threads to create a petition doesn't make anyone better, if you wanna voice your opinion then message the mods directly and if mods don't respond then go step above mods to senior mods and so forth. Also if you're planning to bash me because what i said isn't something what you wanna hear or look at then please don't bother because it won't change me, im gonna do my work, and i'll be here at xda everyday and i'll still be living. just my 2 cents.
