To those of you that are not developers but take the time to answer questions and sincerely take the time to educate some of us on issues! That's what makes XDA so bad a$$, the fact that if you get stuck anywhere (mentally or hardware wise) you can always come here and simply ..ASK.
THANKS!
Note : And no I'm not running for president!
That's what a community is all about bro helping each other out

Devs, n00bs, seniors, everyone. Please calm down.
N00bs..read before you post. This is a big cause to recent drama. I read a thread today and the same question was asked and answered on like3 straight pages... this is not called for.
Devs please consider the level of readiness before posting a Rom. My fav developer makes his Rom as close to bug free by having about 10 guys test the Rom before he releases it. Doing this would cut back on n00b questions and stupid posts. I love all you work this is just an idea.
Everyone else please don't fight and make things worse. Help the n00bs with links to forum rules and such.
I make all these mistakes too. But we need to fix it. We are losing our community.

I'll add to this a bit if you don't mind. Any noobs feel free to pm me whatever the question may be and I will try to help. There is no sense starting a new thread because 99%of the time the question has been answered and i honestly I like to help. I don't have time to develop so this is my attempt to give back to a community I got a lot out of. I may not have your answer but will most likely be able to send you in the right direction and knipp is extremely helpful and knowledgeable as well. I personally don't care but don't post a thread like help plz I bricked my phone in the dev section unless you have a pair of flame retardant pants. Look bottom line is I'm here to help if anyone needs it

Also knipp what do you think about starting a kind of all in one place thread similar to what's stickied in the dev section only a little more recent and updated with an faq? I don't know how many times I posted the gingerbread ruu for people recently. If you don't have the time I can do it or certainly help at the very least. Just wanted to get your opinion on this matter

This. It's extremely refreshing when a dev spends good time creating a ROM for a phone. It's nice to be handed a ROM that has been tested and is essentially bug free. I praise the guys that do that, and the guys that stick to their work. Doing it for fun rather than for money.
Of course I'm not expecting a good ROM to fall into our laps, I do like to follow projects from start to finish just as long as the dev(s) are working solely on that project - Like Cyanogen.
I agree about posting ROMs that are fully tested.. but then only 10 or so get to enjoy the ROM until it's stable. It's nice having everyone give feedback because 100 testers is better than 10. But I 100% agree with you, we need to get this community back on track, and we as users can help indefinitely.
We need to remember, not too long ago we we n00bs. I didn't even know what an .apk was. Now I know how to edit and decompile .apks.
Let's help to make this a fun and sharing community again.

Saw a couple people posting in the reward for ICS thread saying they'd donate for CM7. Figure I'd
start one specifically for that. I'll put in 20. Anybody else? The devs absolutely deserve it

What's the motive of this thread? To get CM7 faster? Its already being worked on by the CM team.

Valid point. Yeah, I'd say for some motivation ($ never hurts) and more for just showing how much we appreciate them giving a little love to our device.

These threads don't help. The dev will get it out when he gets it out. The CM team doesn't work off this type of motivation or have ETA's. However, this thread might make the release slower, because they know that the longer this thread is out, more people will pledge. Regardless, donations are made appropriately when the product is released. This thread won't even give them an idea of how much money they'll get because by the time it is out, people will be in different financial situations. It is a very poor way to get ROMs coming.
..And frankly IF this motivates CM, i would rather it wouldn't because there could be a chance where someone would rush something just for the sake of money. I want my ROMs stable as they can be. So they can take all the time they need considering it's already well under development. FYI i am NOT attacking the OP. Just my 2 cents. Purely opinion...
I've read some well thought out opinions and have decided that this thread is indeed irrelevant. I apologize as my main goal was to help out the developers

Hi everyone!
Some of you may know my virtual identity because I try to answer a lot of questions that people have in this forum. Anyways I moved on to the sensation (I know it's older but development is amazing) because my screen was terrible even after replacements and even though our development is starting to pick up (thanks to our amazing devs here) the phone itself has caused me to move on.
Back to the point, in the sensation forum, they have this sticky that I think helps tremendously with keeping order, preventing flaming, etc. the link is below and I think it would help if something like that was put here as well.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1194325
Farewell and thanks to community, Allgamer, raverx3x,m&s, Eugene, racing1399, whitehawx, tdj, and others I'm missing out!
Can we do this? The flaming is more than a handful of usual suspects.
I like this.
To many kids on xda it reminds of being in high-school, and I don't like it.

Bounty threads brought us raver, who is working on aosp ics, and is damn close. Bounty threads can go either way. Can't forget about Eugene either, he's done some great things for us.

Agreed, there are at least 4 threads on this matter and all you have to look at is the amount of support (change log) and look to see what you like after 2 hours max of reading you will find what vest suits you. At least do some research (state the rom and the features you want, need, and questions you have about each rom) and then you'll get some responses that aren't derived from frustration at laziness.

Sorry about that mate. If a mod could please close the thread.

Or after reading you can just post any further questions here as it may be helpful toward the community. I'll probably see it updated and I'll give you personal feedback. I've flashed them all and tested for at least two days even took notes down at one point lol.

As some of you may know flappjaxxx had created a Hercules specific kernel for our phone with OC/Uv capabilities. Unfortunately only after 1 day of dealing with a few xda members he has decided to shut it down. I just like to say one thing about this we have to remember these developers do things that they may like and then they share it with us. If it does not meet your satisfaction I would suggest you then find a way to make it fit your needs and definitely not complain.
With that said he informed me that updates if any(I asked him to not stop for Hercules) can be found on his goo.im page http://goo.im/devs/flappjaxxx/t989
Thanks flappjaxxx for giving us a choice if only for a day... Not trying to have this be a back and forth just letting people know he will try and do updates when they are needed I guess and where to find it.
If you want to discuss anything about the kernel since the thread was closed feel free to get it started in here... To me the vibration is better than the other custom kernel and interactive makes my screen react faster. I do not have the lag I was having before, still checking out battery life of course
Peace!
It's ashamed that the tread had to closed that quick. Begger can't be chooser and I can't blame flapp for doing so.

We had 1 choice of kernels the man gave us another one and because it was not the same as DAGr8 you complain... If it was the exact same then why even post it? Sorry it just did not make sense to me nor does alot of stuff I read here but maybe its just me...
Why are people so rude? It's one thing to offer constructive criticism, but to unnecessarily bash someone's work because you don't agree with it? It's ridiculous. I'm glad that this kernel will still be updated every now and again. My phone's running a lot smoother since I flashed it.

Its 4.0.4?
I also flashed this kernel a few hours ago and I'm really impressed, especially on how quick it puts my phone into deep sleep. This will definitely improve battery life and the performance in general is amazing!
I hope he sees how much his work is appreciated and not let the ignorant MF's out there get to him. People need to be more appreciative and respectful of the devs that put in the work they do
