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.

everyone has diffrent likes, thats why there is more than one rom out there
what ROM do you have posted on here for us to criticize? probably another CMBOT. Congrats on making the cut for my updated ignore list. Oh your avatar is ugly

and to the OP, why not just send Myn a PM instead of creating an inflammatory thread that basically outlines you finally figured out how to do something for 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.....
Come on people...I mean children.

also am planning on flashing myn's rom later today, if its ugly I'll just keep it to myself. Developers deserve respect, something you obviously lack.

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.
any talks of a port?
No. Its illegal

I would love to see WP7 ported over to the EVO just to say "Hey is possible" but I don't think I would waste such a powerful device like the EVO on such a crappy OS. I mean don't get me wrong, there are some things that are cool about WP7 but is not enough for anyone to ditch Android and use WP7 as their primary OS. If you want to use WP7 then either buy a WP7 phone or go and buy an HD2. I have an HD2 as well as my EVO and I can tell you that the HD2 is great for the fact that it runs so many OS but with that being said, is not even close to the performance of the EVO.

DUDE, don't give people the whole is illegal thing. If that's illegal then I'm pretty sure that if you wanted to start breaking things down as far as what is legal and what's not....alot of what's done on here would be illegal. Things like flashing phones to different carriers and stuff like that.
The HTC HD2 can be flashed to WP7 and Android.....is that illegal? If so, then you better inform XDA that they need to shut their doors because they have a bunch of illegal activity going on within their site.......I hate people like you...I really do!

I put that i have an otterbox case so if someone had a question about it they can ask me. Because I try to be helpful. In fact most of my time spent here is helping or at least trying to help other people. 90% of my posts are answering other people's questions. I spend a LOT of time on this site, and see tons of casual posters come in and clutter this forum up and it makes it harder for everybody else to find the answers they are looking for when they have to sift through bull**** thread after bull**** thread. But you're right, I could have been nicer about it but I'm tired and have a headache and don't really feel like being nice right now. And I have no manners.

Okay guys, after the ridiculous debacle today, those of us who frequent the IRC channels decided that it was time for a change.
For most of the day, that change was moving to a new channel. However, after some talking a few of us actually got cnz(RoadRAGEN) to listen to reason. He's turned over control of the room to an unbiased bot and gave a number of us operator passwords. To top it off, he's agreed to stay off the op list unless absolutely necessary (he won't be raging out anymore, he has his own private channel for that now). The rest of us can sign into the bot and get ops so we can keep peace and order if needed. Otherwise, the only people who get automatic ops are the bots and no one else.
Okay, first the one and only new rule. No more posting logs on xda. the moderators are probably sick of it by now and it accomplishes nothing besides starting fights. if you do post logs and we catch you, you'll get banned until you take it down. To make it worse, we don't stop cnz from doing it himself. It's counterproductive and stupid.
Lastly, cnz(RoadRAGEN) said he will dial it down inside the channel and around here. He had a talk with the moderators today and we had a talk with him in the channel. XDA didn't ban him and neither will we. It was talked about for a minute...but he banned me first...it was a fiasco. BUT, it's fixed now.
Now before you get all apprehensive, remember that despite cnz being a complete douchebag who often forgets what "crossed the line" means, he's still one of our most talented developers and has contributed a lot to this young community. Every rom up in here either directly uses his original updater script, uses a heavily modded version or pieces of it. Yes, sometimes he's incredibly insensitive and no one in their right minds would defend his personality or his actions (especially today), but he understands what happened here today and knows that doing it again is stupid.
It's all about the Android so you can come out from under your beds, the boogieman isn't also the doorman anymore.
If you're still angry about the incident, it's understandable. But remember, like xda, irc is a community and in no way do the actions today represent the community as a whole. It was as a community that we discussed the problem and it was a community that we dealt with it. So don't think this decision was made lightly.
If you don't agree, please keep the flaming to yourself. We don't need another out of control thread about IRC around here.
So this means my +q will be taken off?

I seem to have missed all that, so I guess I'm the ignorant party at the moment. I really don't think the changes made or this thread should be held responsible for the unwieldy comments of others, though. I've been nothing but civil in all this
But I don't blame you, though. I can't imagine people are going quietly into that good night and I'm sure I've been getting my fair share of the flames as well for trying to mediate all this nonsense.
I wasn't pointing the blame in any particular direction.

People have their opinions. That's not illegal yet, so I'm not offended. However, if my name is eventually going to be Mudd, then I'll probably end up ceasing my attempts to help out and go back to my little corner to make roms again

Hey guys just fyi, I'm not associated with the channel anymore. After nearly a dozen PMs in IRC and almost another dozen on here about how I'm a hate monger and a jerk off, I've decided that it's not worth it and I've had enough.
To all of you who PMed me with negative things, you should be ashamed of yourselves.
To those of you who appreciated the efforts, sorry I couldn't do more.
Being ostracized because I refuse to bend to Mob Rule just feels wrong to me, but that's what is happening. Apparently I was being offensive by treating everyone with equal respect without discrimination and not being an anti-cnz hate monger like everyone else.
It sucks, I liked that irc channel, but there's capable people running it still. I won't be going back. I'm tired of being nearly constantly flamed for trying to be fair and helpful.
*sigh* I feel better now. Peace guys.
I know I'm about to get flamed all to hell for asking this... and yes I searched but not found anything recent on this forum.
I've heard rumblings that there is an Alpha out there from the Cynaogen Devs, but haven't actually seen a link or a way to get in on that...
We all know about the bubby mod, but it doesn't look like it has moved in a while...
Anyone got anything new to report about CM7 on the SS2E4GT?

Amazing, we have the best Sprint phone out there right now but no cutting edge development. Might push me towards the Galaxy Nexus which I really don't want to go to because it isn't really much of an upgrade over the E4GT.
Haven't seen anything posted recently about CM7. Seems like it is at a standstill. People say he is in IRC all the time but I haven't heard any more progression with the Rom so not sure what is going on in there.
I know the next thing to fix was GPS but doesn't seem like that happened. Also put out a date of the 15th for ICS, but I wouldn't get my hopes up for that one...Probably a bad move for him to put a date out there...
yeah, I am kinda surprised that the CM team hasn't given this phone the attention that a lot of others have gotten, especially, since this is the premier phone on sprint, and probably the best all around android phone out right now...
Not for nothing but I am quite sure if you really want to know the answer to your question you can go over to that forum and post a thread. I believe someone will answer you.
I am quite sure it will get done eventually since so many people want it and this phone is one of the best out now. I don't think worrying about is going to make it come faster though. Honestly outside of GPS and wifi tethering it runs pretty damn good.
Although some may not have faith in the kid, you must remember he has still done more than you or I have done to this point. Unless of course you have done more and if so let us know....lol

I agree with that statement
It's been a little over a week since the last alpha was released. This kid seems to work in spurts. He probably has school to deal with as well.
Aside from the GPS and 50%-working haptic and the governors besides ondemand being a little off kilter it's a solid kang and stable as hell. If you can go without GPS It's ready to go and fast as hell. Games work, sound, bluetooth, DSPmanager (yay), etc etc etc.
Now...take it over to the other forum. As odd as it sounds the rules are the rules, this conversation doesn't belong here.

exactly.... there is a place to ask your question....
Everyone needs to relax and stop saying we can't talk about Bubby323 (oops I said it again). Half the people over here shunning him will go over to the other forums and install his work if they haven't already did it. Like someone said he has done more then anyone else getting CM7 on our phone. So just grow up people. Flame away!

Discussion of development that isn't on XDA is prohibited. You can say bubby and rootzwiki all day long. Hell, you can even tell them to go to rootzwiki to find bubby's CM7 kang. But discussing Bubby's CM7 development at rootzwiki--discussing the rom along finer points--is where we went astray.
Considering all of the drama involved (on both sides) I don't think it's fair or realistic to make a judgement of who is wrong and who is right...but do I think that's unreasonable to discuss this in the general forum? No.
...but I don't make the rules.
For the record, didn't mean to start the whole drama about he who shall be not whatever'd.
Just wanted to know if anyone knew of progress made by dev's on this forum or had heard anything from Cyanogen that is more... shall we say... official/reliable/etc.

I dont want to go back and forth, but General is general info about the device. I recall everyone discussing Deck's cm7 kang for the Evo 4G in the Evo forums, he had no thread here at the time. Then a thread was even made in the dev section called "another cm7 rom", the thread was made by a member not Deck, it wasnt deleted. So whats OK and what isnt comes down to who is OK and who isnt I guess, not whether it benefits the community....

Don't worry man...we're on the same side and feel the same way, we're just going about it in different ways.
http://rootzwiki.com/topic/12440-romunofficial-cyanogenmod-72-alpha-3-12-28-11-bluetooth-is-fixed/
Last updated on the 28th. Discussion is ongoing on the IRC channel.
Personally, I'd rather people know where to go than keep asking here. If mods don't like this, they can feel free to do whatever with it. Otherwise, there's your info.
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.
Sent from my s3, rockin' AOKP by Task and Ktoonsez
+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

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.
