XDA MODS

Hey folks,
I've become increasingly concerned with the mods of our forum.
Two kernel projects have been stickied while the americanandroid 35 kernel thread is not nor has tytungs kernel. One of the currently stickied is even essentially a branch of the 35 project that marc1706 (good buddy) began expanding.
As for another issue, the stickied list of roms / kernels thread etc has never included AmeriCanAndroid even weeks after it was brought to the OPs attention. We feel that ignoring our request to be included on the list has partially steered away potential users.
If a mod can rectify these issues it would be awesome.

A pm to forum mods and if required senior mod would have been more appropriate i guess, but since the thread is here now, i guess yeah, the sticky threads should be revised before being accepted as sticky ? or some form of public vote instead of sole admin/mod decision ?

Or perhaps a kernel subforum with no stickies? Only reason I didn't pm a mod is because I'm on my phone so I can't get to the mod list....that and because I'm pretty sure at some point a mod saw two posts by me asking for this fair treatment in a couple of these threads as did the OP of the roms /kernel list as I was responded to by that OP without rectifying the issue.

I remember when a person from your team totally raged at me because your rom wasn't added to my compilation thread.. I had clearly written that people could PM me if they wanted their roms in my list..
Now this ? If you want your kernel stickied, PM a moderator. We can't expect everything to just happen, we must participate ourselves.
+ remember, there are 40+ roms and many kernels out there, so a mod could have easily have missed seeing your kernel thread.
btw, this should be in Q&A
btw 2. tytungs kernel has been stickied.. and it is included in most of the roms.. so if people wants it, it shouldn't be so hard to find it.
Edit:
My compilation thread is stickied, so if people are looking for kernels, they can find yours in my thread

It was me yz, and I didn't rage I more like pointed it out and also made the point that the list seemed a bit redundant considering the nature of the forum thread lists already in existence.
I do appreciate the response.
Thanks

Didn't see your thread in 1. / 2. page.. that's why I didn't include it. Sending a PM to me wouldn't be that hard.

i just think that mods are uninformed...

Dear yz.hd, the mods are humans and can fail, but this is unfair, as was Warren starting development with the new kernel base wich is a success now, and tytungs kernel were always a big support of a huge quantity of roms, so would be good to see the work of this 2 fellas sticked too, I remember that this was already mentioned awhile back..
Its not a critic, we appreciate all the work that you guys do for us, its only a point out to improve our forums, and we now that they are huge, so is a big task, but kernel development is very important for hd2 development..

well, I would rather want none of the kernels to be stickied then.. A lot of good kernels out there. If people wants to install a kernel, they can search.. or check the compilation thread.
Would be unfair (as it is now) if a kernel gets stickied, an one doesn't.. (I understand you)
BUT warrenb haven't PM'ed a mod. We can't expect the mods to read all the post that are being posted. That would just be wrong.

I'm going to be controversial here and say that the mods are fully aware that certain kernels are being stickied. In fact, NRGZ has stickied the SBryan Kernel even though it was queried as to why that should be stickied as important and others such as Marc's/Warrens and Tytungs hasn't.
This is always bound to happen when you sticky certain things and not others. My personal view is that these should be in a wrap up thread like what yz.hd has created and not stickied, else you clog up the 1st page with sticky's.
This is not a slight on NRGZ as this guy is a legend in the HD2 world but this sort of argument is a consequence of poor management.
Mods please take note and give all the devs equal respect for their work.

I'll look into this. Closing the thread off. Any further issues on this should be done in PM.

[KERNEL] Calling out TINY AND CHAD

Tiny and Chad,
Let me first start off by saying I love you guys. Since your development of your kernels for the droid incred the DINC has never ever been a faster better device so thank you.
BUT!!!! You need to update the kernel to support HWA for ICS ROMS. I have been using AOKP ROMS (link: http://forum.aokp.co/page/news) for my DINC instead of preludedrews and moongoosehelixs because their ROMS do not allow me to use your kernel. But their ROMS come with a stock kernel that supports HWA which lets me use Chrome Beta and among other things such as youtube. Being that I have supported you guys for almost 2 years and even donated I am calling you out to fix this finally and once again become the top kernel provider for the DINC. If it takes a donation and donations from your followers (which I am sure there is many) then so be it.
Please please make this happen your kernel is uncanny and I would love to rube it in the faces of those that use that terrible kernel that does not support anything even fast charge..cough (tiamat)...not to mention terrible battery life and very very very veee rrr yyyy slow
With love Martin
EDIT: in no way am I bashing other kernel developers this post was meant to be fun and grab the attention of my favorite kernel developers chad/tiny...

Adding HWA to the Incredikernel series breaks GB compatibility, something very important given that 40-60% of Android devices run Gingerbread as of this posting.

Well they maintain a working sense/aosp kernel why not maintain a sense/aosp/ics kernel ya know? I mean I am no kernel developer so I do not understand the time/hard work that it takes ( I am sure it is long hours of coding) but this kernel is a GOD kernel to use DINC users I would just love to see it have working HWA and I miss chad....never here from the guy anymore...

Wow... So many things wrong with this post:
1) Wrong Section - if it's not some development to share, it doesn't belong in a thread here. Read the rules.
2) Never ask for ETAs - Cyanogenmod's #1 rule, but a good practice to follow with all devs.
3) Demanding a free service from developers who donate their time is wrong
4) Using donations as leverage is wrong. You donated because of their GB kernels, not for future work. They are under no obligation to continue dedicating their lives for any donation amount that would be given on XDA
5) The general rule of the dev community is: If it isn't there, try to learn for yourself and share it with everyone! If not, patiently wait or make kind suggestions in the thread. Do NOT created a new thread with very many demanding words.

I don't think chad or tiny would get offended by this thread, even though it's posted in the wrong section, would likely be better served in the actual thread for the kernel or maybe PMing tiny or chad (and tiny is way more active for the dINC).
But agreed I think it would be a good idea to just separate GB and ICS kernels to improve them both easier and without making sure they are both compatible with each other.
It's all up to the DEV's though, they're the ones doing all the hard work so they can do whatever they wanna do!

No need to ask. I've already given thought to this and pmed chad for assistance. But I don't much like the title or the op. It screamed demand to me. I get that internet sarcasm is sometimes hard to catch.

"booting" 3.4 kernel Discussions

Guys the following thread [WIP/DEV] I've got a "booting" 3.4 kernel, looking to get a dev team started-- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2071021 --has attracted lot of users who are very much interested in the 3.4 kernel for maguro. It resulted in lot of discussion within the development thread that annoyed some developers. As suggested this thread is opened in order to let the developers free and do their works and we, the users chat here to keep their thread clean....
Hope some developers will look at it and announce their status and respond our queries here.....:fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed::victory::victory::victory:

I'm following this in hopes this helps other OMAP4 devices like the Droids which are OMAP4.

Is their been any progress yet? Are they any closer to functioning 3.4 last time I looked some were taking about just modifying a 3.1 kernel
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk

We're all impatient, but as far as I've been reading, building a 3.4 kernel from scratch is kind of a big effort. I'm kind of anxious too, hehe
I've got an idea: why don't we get a team assembled so we can chip in some donations via paypal so we can motivate the kernel devs? That should be a good start, don't you think? =)

i was trying to keep up with them, but I got lost in their developer vernacular.
From what i can gather, we're getting closer.

I am a Chinese Developer about MIUI9

Hell foreign friends,
I am the original author of Nubia Z17's MIUI9.
I found someone stealing my ROM ,MIUI9.I was very angry.
Please stop your infringement!!!

I'm not quite sure stealing is the right word for it. He has ported it for international use. Furthermore he has quoted your work in his initial post. Maybe you two could figure something out and work together, since everybody likes your miui 9 port so much. It would be a shame to have miui 9 not ready for international use.

You need to read the Forum Rules. XDA is about sharing open source projects...
Rule 12:
12. Sharing
XDA-Developers is based on the principle of sharing to transmit knowledge. This is the cornerstone of our site. Our members and developers freely share their experience, knowledge, and finished works with the rest of the community to promote growth within the developer community, and to encourage those still learning to become better. There are those, however, who take advantage of this model and try to make personal gains from the hard work of others.
In order to preserve the delicate balance between sharing for the good of the community and blatant self-promotion, regular members and developers alike must understand (and agree) to the following:
12.1. Give credits where due - Credits and acknowledgements for using and releasing work which is based on someone else's work are an absolute must. Works reported to have no credits will be taken down until proper acknowledgements are added by the member in question;
12.2. Courtesy - While most of the work released on our site falls under the umbrella of open source, that is not the only license model being used by developers on xda-developers. In order to prevent problems, we ask that if you decide to base your work on someone else's that you check the license model being used (as it might not be as permissive as one may think);
12.3. Re-releasing other's works as your own is forbidden. The code that you release into the wild must have something beyond minor aesthetic changes that makes it better than the last. As this can be subjective, kang reports will be reviewed on a case by case basis. If you feel that your code has been kanged, please contact the Dev Relations team (listed below) if you cannot solve the issue amicably via PM. Please understand that you will be asked to provide evidence to substantiate your claim;
12.4. Developers can issue take down requests (by contacting the Dev Relations team) under the following circumstances:
- in-process builds start showing up on forums when the developer is not yet ready to release the work;
- cases in which another developer is too aggressively soliciting donations or misrepresenting the work (kanging);
- unofficial builds where an official build is already available;
In summary, we want people to have access to work and knowledge alike. Sharing is good and courtesy and ethics go a long way.
Developers with questions, comments, complaints, or concerns about our rules (or anything!) should send a PM to our Dev Relations team (efrant or sykopompos) or to a Moderator. We are here to help!

Krypton kernel. Vince exclusive.

One great kernel, solved all problems with the phone. Also has 2,8 ghz overclocking on CPU and 725 gpu
4.9 tested on Q

What problems does it solve?

i had an issue with non oem screen. where doulbe tap on is the screen off is not working. It`s now working only with this kernel. also it improves the lags if you have it because of OC.

Thread closed until kernel sources and credits are given
You can read about it HERE why it's mandatory to post actual kernel sources according to GPL.
