Froyo for EVO

Since the update to Froyo is coming out in a few days, do you expect that we'll see a fully working ROM shortly?

Exactly. I hope that this will improve Cyanogen's rom. Other than that all new roms will be based off of the new Froyo release, and as such they will work perfectly.

Are all 5 of your posts this condescending or is it just that time of the month for you??? The OP was just trying to get some active dialog going, regarding the upcoming release. Which is more than anyone can say for you. Let the mods do their job, as they are far more qualified than you. And if you're going to insist on playing moderator, try to be less of a D:[email protected] when doing so.
Thanks,
Jeff
Thnx Jeff. I'm sick of the negativity too.
This thread is relevant to development.

To those who don't like what they think are unnecessary, redundant, or misplaced threads: Every time you reply with your contemptuous or insulting comments, the thread gets bumped up and more people see it. Quit poking it, just let it die on its own if you don't like it.

So knowing those three things is going to make you a dev?
1. http://bit.ly/dGelUt
2. http://bit.ly/fWKXcB
3. http://bit.ly/eTznEb
All of which a google search would have helped you out. This is development section so I understand why you posted this here. But I think you should take a step back since given those three questions could have been found out on your own, shows you have no self motivation yet. Development is a community effort I agree, but there isn't much hand holding. Posting this only showed that your looking for someone to do it for you. That isn't the way to go.
Op= original poster. The other questions I will leave for the true devs
Sent from my Evolution
OP: person who started thread.
Linux distro: not necessary, but many like Ubuntu (I have used Red Hat for a long time)
Tools: Download a kitchen if you just want to build roms, otherwise ask specific questions on what it is you are looking to do and usually someone here can either get you what you want.....or at least point you in the right direction.
And yes, this should have been posted in Q&A

Then maybe he will next time direct his "lazy" questions to the Q&A. Sorry I'm a blunt person. If you want you can look through the 3000 pages on the compile GB thread I posted and look at the tons of advice I give. You can also see me tell people the truth, some people don't like it. Some people get it, understand what I am telling them, and better themselves.

If you have a bad taste in your mouth then your should probably brush your teeth. Then move on. Even the OP understood. Have a great weekend.
Brushed my teeth this morning but thanks for the advice. Seems you always need that last little word in there somewhere which is fine because not offense taken by your comments. Just defending a fellow geekdroider like myself from the devs that think their crap don't stink. Jump off your high horse and work on you rom creations because I don't use em anyway. Thanks buddy have a great weekend and happy droiding.

Lol to up above but I understand where both of you are coming from. OP I wouldn't mind assisting.you if you need some help also. I just made my first rom two days ago took a month but the people on here a very helpful even if they are blunt lol I think they give the best help because they make you.think.about if you seriously want to become a dev the nice ones are also great help I don't think.the community would be as strong.if we didn't have blunt people that the nice people get into it with. They kinda go hand and hand lol they give helpful info when arguing and not even realize.

good luck.

what does a kernel actually do for your phone?

I see people using different kernels with different roms. Why so many kernels and whats their use?
Kernels basically run the back end of your phone. A lot of people make different/ update the kernels because they find a different way to improve battery life and make the phone run smoother and faster. Also, SBC kernels implement trickle charging which makes it so your phone is at or near a 100% when you take it off the charger
This question belongs in the Q&A section, not in the development section.
it posts in the correct section for starters....or does some research as this question has been asked a million times already
Looks like XDA needs to make a 20 post min now.
This is going to by my new trademark...
ROM Development - only meant for very advanced technical discussion directly related to ROM development activity and the delivery of actual ROMs and ROM components ONLY. Nothing else goes in here.
Oh, and please post your new kernel that you must be developing. I must have missed that somewhere in the OP.

Wow, you got us. To stick with your lunch table metaphor, imagine this subforum as a lunch table in a cafeteria. You and your friends are enjoying a nice conversation when out of nowhere 500 people run to your table and start vomiting all over it.
This subforum is set up so that they don't need to sticky legitimate development threads. Instead, they created other subforums for questions like these.
Yeah, it looks kind of bad when ten people run in going "wrong forum! wrong forum!," but they're trying to help in whatever way they can since this forum doesn't have a downvoting system.

Rule number 1
1. Search before posting.
Use one of our search functions before posting, whether you have a question or something new to share, it's very likely someone already asked that question or shared that news.
agreed.. way to contribute to xda.. bash new users who will probably never come back, job well done.
there's ALWAYS new thread's by someone that doesnt search, whether new to forums in general or just didnt take the time to search.. steer them in the right direction rather than away from the forums...

This is my theory... maybe this will scare and annoy people enough that they will actually think twice and possibly search before posting in the wrong section. They should be scared to come in here and start a thread about a non-development topic.

[rom] cm7 beta1

Sorry but I can't post in development because I'm just a noob, so I had to post it here.
Anyways I was looking at the cm9 progress and realized there was finally a cm7 offical release, so I wanted to share it with everyone because I have been waiting for it for a while now.
I'm running it right now and it is very stable and works really well. It can be found here and there is also a link for gapps there as well.

I agree. Is there a question here? Also [ROM[ in the title is reserved for actually posting a ROM in development. Please read through the threads and search a little bit to avoid getting flamed and having a very bad experience here.
Alrighty no more posts from me. My bad, I don't have time to read through 50,000,000 posts to make sure what I'm saying hasn't been said already. I'm new to all this and everytime I say something some nerd with a god complex gets on here and tells me how stupid I am. From now on I will read and not try to contribute.

I was just trying to help you out and offer constructive criticism before someone came in and really flamed you. First thing you need to do is take [ROM] out of the title. The second thing you need to do is realize when people are trying to help you. Sorry if you took it the wrong way. Posting old news is not really contributing. There is a Development subforum for ROM postings. If you glance at the CM7 thread you will see what I mean. But reading certainly couldn't hurt. Thanks for posting and welcome.

Does any dev plan to make a rom for our device anytime soon? It seems there are official updates only for Gnex and few other devices at present time. I am guessing maybe a week before SamMobile releases something. Thoughts? Ideas? Answers?

The poll is a great idea but all your devs in it aren't even working on making any AOSP roms, except Jamison with AOKP but he is still dabbling with source and such.

I do not see you answering this question. And if they wanna move it to QA...they will. I dont care at this point.

Why are you so angry haha? I gave you some insight and if you search a little OP you will get an idea of who might be dropping a 4.2.2 rom. I will not give you any other insight or links to such threads that might be only a couple away from your thread. Because you are simply not polite but demanding, and your tone is unheard of in these threads. I say good day.

It is question as to if they have access to builds...and where those might be. I am not asking for timeline for anybody to MAKE a rom at all. I basically wish to know idea of when there will be something out there for us to use on S3 devices in USA. Pretty much an information thing not ETA thing. Understand??
