Yes and you join in our ICS mania going around =D
Yea! ICS is the reason I switched... I'm going to miss sense, but once 4.0 becomes more stable I would have left it anyways... im sure 4.0 is way more stable on this phone than Evo4g already anyways!!! I have 5hours to wait lol... but thank you for the welcome!!! :-D
Welcome! Great phone, great forum!
As usual, read the stickies, get familiar with the acronyms and procedures before flashing Anything. Seriously. And especially before playing with ICS. (Lots of bricked phones lately coming from not reading carefully.)
Also, look up, and watch Qbking77 on YouTube. TONS of great info and tutorials from him, real life saver.

Welcome! You've arrived just in time for ics mania! If your jaw should happen to drop when viewing the screen, don't worry, it's a normal side effect

Hey all, MAJOR league busy at uni since the last time i was on here.
How is everyone?
Not too bad, just got back myself. How have you been?
Pleased to see the two of you back in active participation... Looking forward to new Guides and Roms...
Things are good - we are mostly in user support / maintenance mode around here. Still some good cooking going on, but the ROMs are so stable it is more like xda-support instead of xda-developers these days.
Good to see you. I have pointed people to your guides so pften recently, I should just make a signature that says it.
Glad to see you are back, I pointed lots of newbies to your guides...
Good to hear from U! Yes we are mostly in support mode around here lately. I point more noobs to your guides than any other. Keep us posted...
welcome back Mrvanx, Your guides help us alot
That's funny good too see you too back as well, I just got back since like aug. Guess its that time of year for us to come back, maybe its the cold winter.

Hey sanmiauz, It's seniors' talk why are you here... hehehehe
welcome back Mrvanx... and thanx for your great guide
I will add my voice to the welcomes on here and also to thank you for a fantastic job on your guides. Have helped me and others over time although they probably need updating in some areas.
On a different note, what courses are you doing at Uni? York is a great part of the world, especially in the summer. Some legendary ghost walks round there and some half decent pubs (ooh yess).
All the best.

i'm a nub, but this forum totally rocks =). i like the people here and i luv all the cooked ROM's. hermes is STILL an awesome phone even after the tilt came out. the 3MP camera on the tilt still doesn't look as good as standalone cameras and you can get a bluetooth GPS antenna for the hermes and it'll STILL be as good as the tilt!!! =).
i really hope HTC implements some of either ATI or NVidia's stuff. i'd love to play some 3D games or somn =).
Like many others, I too have directed others to your excellent guide. After all, that was how I learnt to upgrade my phone. Hope you would continue to update you guide. For example, Vista upgrade is much easier now that WMDC6.1 is out.
How about an updated guide vanx? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=344151
You are welcome again. After all that warm words, can we start with a new great step toward improving Hermes telephony: plz have a look at this amazing dialer
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=341517
Glad to see the old crowd returning. I think we missed your inputs and advice.
How's things yourself?

Hi Guys,
Just a quick note to give everyone on this forum a BIG thumbs up. I've been lurking around here for quite some time but only really got into it over the last week or so.
Just in the last 3 days I must have flashed my DHD a good 20 times and with all the advice and help available here it's getting really easy. I've gone from RUU to full on custom ROM's and I'm loving it.
I think I can honestly say that I have found my favorite pastime (next to riding my Super Bike *snicker*).
Anyhoooo, enough waffling from me.... another ROM just finished downloading so back to flashing *uncontrolled evil laugh*
Keep up the AWESOME work!!
Thank you
I completely know the feeling, Im also addicted, thanks XDA!
Thanks
I to have learned a lot here on Xda.
Big thanks to all of those people who put in so much time and effort into the site and mods ,Xda tv & staff good accurate entertaining information.
This place is awesome. I spend alot of my free time on here now. It's a shame that the 1% of trollers and **** starters ruin it as much as they do.
Yes I too am hopped up on XDA still a rookie but rooted and overclocked you guys are the best

Welcome to the Android world lol. You came just at the right time as development is booming now thanks to the awesome devs here

Yup, welcome!
Things are exploding all over this forum, great devs, great ROMs stock and custom.
I cannot stress this enough :
Read Everything before flashing Anything.
Please.
Start with QBKING77s videos on YouTube, he will show you everything you need to know about rooting and flashing this phone.
Most things are very easy on this phone, actually hard to brick, as long as you read first. There are some very easy "one click" rooting apps made by "sfhub" (genius), I would consider running stock rooted for a bit, get to know your recovery, get to know about the differences between the kernels and modems and ROMs. Then, flash something like Calkulins EL29 Tweaked, or Blazer, and others will have other suggestions but those are usually the most popular/stable/great support.
The exception is if you are thinking about flashing an Ice Cream Sandwich rom, Be Very Careful, Read ALL instructions and information very carefully first, ask questions in the right sections and threads, understand the acronyms and kernals/modems, be comfortable with ODIN before attempting. Seriously.
(i would provide links to some of that, but pain in the ass on the tapa. I think some of that is in my sig.)

Welcome to your new life.
Welcome to the world of Android, if you have downloads that you would like to convert from iTunes, look into DoubleTwist to move all of your movies and music to your Android phone
I have convinced 6 iDevice users to use Android and all but 1 like Android much better.
The community is very helpful with most anything you will face with your phone. Coming from an iPhone there will be some limitations that our phones won't do, I'm pretty sure you will find out that just because this phone can't do some of the things the iPhone can do, you will find out it can do things that your iPhone couldn't do!
Welcome to the forums and Android, you picked a great device to be your first Android too!

Hey Devs & Helpers out there,
Just wanted to write a thank you to all the hard work you put in, gratis, for our device.
I cannot overstate how fantastic it is to have a wide selection of roms for our phone, as it gives the user so many options and things to look forward to in terms of updates, functionality, battery life, etc - the list goes on and on.
It's really made this website a haven, as well as an addiction for myself, and has also made my phone usage (and distractions at the office!) go through the roof. Whenever I use my phone in public, on the subway or whatever, I'm hoping there is another user out there who realizes the graphics / interface on my phone is unique, and can inspire them to "achieve" the same. Perhaps I'll even try to do a little programming myself at some point (although my CS101 class in college was probably one of my biggest challenges - and that's for an ME!)
Once again, best regards and much thanks to those hard working devs out there, who deserve nothing but our gratitude and support. Don't thank this post, thank all the devs who put in time day in and day out. Keep on truckin'!
Best regards,
-Dirk
Agreed. I was late to the game with smartphones...buying my DInc2 last July was my first. I was going to wait to root after my warranty was over, but after rooting my wife's nook color, I ventured over to this forum to see what was going on for my phone. Needless to say, it was probably two weeks after browsing this forum that I started enjoying what the hardworking devs have been up to.
I also wouldn't mind venturing into the development aspect of Android but my wife would kill me if I spent even more time on my phone.
I couldn't have said it any better, thanks all you devs and themers for all your hard work

I have to agree. I've definitely been enjoying the results of all of the devs' hard work. Keep it up!

Here here!! Another huge thanks to all the devs out there using their personal time to make our phones (and everyone else's for that matter) well worth keeping! There's been plenty of times I wanted to tell a dev how awesome their Rom was but it's taken me some time to get past this 10 post rule. Lol.

Since you are a (soon to be) former E4GT user and (soon to be) new SIII user I'll be eager to hear your feedback on the phone.
Good luck!
Well if it performs as good as it looks and if it has a good radio then We're talking!

It'll be total rubbish!! Seriously a step forward instead of a leap up is not worth it. If they gave us the quad core I'd say sure, but just the s4..... naaa note worthy but not write home to mom worthy.
I was thinking of starting a thread to thank the developers, helpers, and posters of leaked info. qbking77 and sfhub (wait did i spell that right? LOL) are just among the few.
I enjoyed flashing the latest leaked ICS update for my device.
However Saturday i wondered into a sprint store and picked up an HTC EVO LTE and after playing with it for a few days it looks like i will be keeping it.
Again, i think the Epic Touch community is a great place to be on XDA.
