I see alot of theads being closed constantly, kinda hampers freedom of speach. Please dont ban me, I just think you guys need to step back and take a breather sometimes before jumping on the close button.
All this time could be put into making my LIVE wallpaper switching program, I have money and google. But I would rather pay than google how to script that out.
Most of the thread being closed have dedicated threads in the stickies sections.
Why waste space and time? I mean I think you could go through and count the number of Apple vs. Samsung threads that have been closed, you'd need more then 2 hands. Same with LTE 4G.

umm..1st ..huh????
and 2nd...these boards are hugeeeeee...no need to waste bandwidth because someone asks a question that is answered in the thread directly below the new 1 they just made....
Personally I like that they lock them and have them consolidated as a sticky rather than seeing the same thread fifty times in a row

The thank button is there intended to show appreciation for actually helping someone with a problem / offering sound advice. even if someone says someone otherwise and it had value for some reason or other to a person,t hey can show it.

Yes, some moderators can come off as arrogant. I can see their frustration as the threads get bogged down with the same questions over and over again. Although, they need to accept their position as moderator and not allow their frustrations to spew onto others. Lesson... Read, read, read... Your question has been answered 99% of the time. Especially in development threads. The same question asked repeatedly can slow down development, because instead of working on improving the device, they have to answer the same questions 50 times.

Know them, follow them. They are in place for good reasons and frankly, IMO i think most forums could be moderated much heavier. The fact is, 4 million users cannot all be moderated so we just appreciate the work we get from our mods, regardless.

Be best to just leave it alone, doncha think?
One of the excuses for closing it down was due to it not being for a particular dev but just in general. I agree there was some minor bickering going on but the main reason for that thread should have prevailed over the few arguments that took place.
There was obviously a lot of interest based on the amount of money that was raised and it is unfortunate that doesn't matter here.
I guess if someone wanted to start another bounty thread up and say it is for team Viper to deliver ICS to the E4GT then that would abide to the XDA rules...

I don't know what the continued disagreement is about...
It's been shown before that bounty threads don't work.
It would be more effective to get everyone's money together and buy a phone outright for developers like Rootzwiki does.
Most developers don't do this for any sort of monetary gain, providing different models allows development across even more phones.

The only problem with people purchasing a phone for a dev is at that point they feel like the dev will owe them something and would expect them to put in all the hours until they get whatever it is the people want working.
If the dev decided he didn't want to put the time in to get the work done, I think the people who purchased the phone would get pretty annoyed and would have a pretty valid argument I think.
At this point, who would you buy a phone for that can honestly say I can produce ICS for the ET4G? If someone can actually make that claim, I think people would do it but I do not know who that person would be.
I believe the CM team already has the phone so I would guess they are working on CM9 for us. At least that is what I think I heard, someone correct me if I am wrong.

There isn't a perfect method for anything.
However, the purchasing of phones for developers just seems like a better strategy.
I've read multiple tweets by several different developers that show they're more interested in that than bounties or small donations.
I think it would be better for the community if XDA embraced this idea and allowed people to donate to a fund that would essentially buy phones for devs.

Yeah things have definitely gotten out of hand. Looks like Viper's ICS thread in the general section is headed the same way with things so much off topic lately. People can't let anything go. When they argue once, they just got to keep dragging it on for some reason.
It was a stupid concept overall. That's why it's gone.

i couldnt agree more my man. in the evo days which was not that long ago for me this arguing and *****ing just was not at the level it in here. im not sure why people see the need to **** on everything they see and then pick out some one whom to have a lengthy argument with on the thread. they should just pm each other and have all these ***** fests with them selfs so we wont have too see it all and have it over all through out a entire thread take up several pages worth. its no wonder when people new to xda come in here and dont read the thread and ask repeat questions all the time. i bet if people just stuck to asking legit questions and raising legit concerns that the threads would be 50% or more smaller and be packed just full of use full information that would cause a lot of news to spend the time reading without wading through **** soup trying to find a answer for there problems. im glad Jerdog goes through threads and cleans up a ton of crappy posts to make the ones of importance easier to get to. xda needs to come up with a anti crappy post software to detect bull **** and stop the person from being able to post out there but hole. lol ok i feel better now

So how does one become a moderator? The reason I ask is that I am SO sick of reading the same stupid questions over and over and over (as are majority of the members here). This phone has a few talented DEVs, but as a whole the community for the E4GT is terrible. No one reads, no one searches, and frankly, some of the questions that people ask on here shows that they shouldn't even own a SMARTPHONE!
I remember how it used to be back in the day, as do some of you. If you weren't a DEV and were just here to use what was provided, you kept your damn mouth shut. The only time you spoke up is if you searched far and wide and exhausted all your other resources...then you asked your question and hoped the real DEVs on here would give you the time of day...and that was great! You actually had to LEARN something...
These days, and for some reason this phones community is the worst, the "I want it now" pigs overrun every freaking thread on the forum. It even makes searching impossible because your "results" just pop up the same stupid question being asked over and over.
Anyways, I could go on forever, but I only want to know one thing...how can I become a moderator and help clean some of this up so it is better moving forward?
Rule of thumb with any forum: if you have ask to become a mod, you're not going to be one. I'm relatively new here, and to flashing phones in general as the epic 4g ttouch is my first smartphone. So when you mention how any who isn't some sort of Dev should keep their mouth shut I can't help but take it personally. If you really did want to become a mod this wasn't a way to do it. Believe me I'm not trying to overstep boundaries, I know my place. But you're only coming off angry.
Can't be a mod? You can always do what the guy in the image is doing...although you'd drive the mods crazy.

I'm not saying we all need to get this elitist chip on our shoulders, but it takes everyone to clean this crap up.

Actually I agree with you. People search and search less and made no attempt to understand at least the basic informations before rooting or customizing their phones. I spent a solid 12 hours googling and searching before deciding to root my phone.
But you are obviously not going to win this one. Forget asking people to search the forum before asking question. There is a two page thread on Epic 4g Touch General area about disabling update notification and people don't even bother to read the OP thoroughly before asking the question. They wonder why what they did did not work when it is clearly explained in the OP.
I kinda see what you mean, but I use the search more since they removed the Captcha....I really hated that. I think we should let people know about it...because that was the reason why I didn't use the search in the first place.
Oh...and also the search time limit

****, if I can help you, shabby, my whiskey filled moment is validated. Lord knows you've made my life better.
I find I don't actually play much games, IRL. But I do like having the nice ones, for those moments. And DeadSpace, Sprinkle, and even FullFats "Flick" series are nice little time wasters. Esp since coming from the Evo4G, and i find myself always a little surprised when I don't have to think about "crap, do I have room for this useless app?"
And the others, yeah, either I have them, or don't need them... Unless someone has a recommend for mSecure or TuneIn for any reason?
PS, holy f*ck, Dead Space run/looks/is awesome. Wow. I am actually a bit stunned. Well played, EA.
Yall should also thank the OP's in the other two threads that said the same thing earlier.
I am friggin addicted to the flick golf and the flick football games.

I think they also claim to own the word "word". Shoot here comes the lawsuit.
I was recently chatting with one of our mods and this is what he had to say:
Owning a nexus is a responsibility. Once you own a Nexus, you own the right to speak for the Android ecosystem as a whole. It all becomes as you put it because you are the high priest of a sacred religion, the source.
It is from this that your prime responsibility emerges as well- you have to help every android user if you know you can, even if you don't want to. Whether they think that their phone is better and cooler or not, whether you look like a friendless and deprived idiot or a desperate nerd.
I know this sounds silly philosophical to you, alluding to a very "brotherhood" vicinity as far as concepts go, but what matters is the result we get from such a mindset- something more open, something more google, forward and responsive, something that iOS kidos cant even think in the lines of.
It is the reason I am ensuring that nexus discussions are sincere, friendly and constructive and everyone trying to derail this process is going to find a tough time.
Its also the reason I am talking to BigG to make nexus devices always niche, so that every nexus owner feels a sense of purpose to the eco system, silently knowing he has what matters most in the android ecosystem

Further in the conversation he went forth outlining how Google can achieve this, compact version of which is:
1. FULL play store access (not restricted by country or device)
2. Closer relationship with google devs
3. Working with manufacturers to get flashable ported versions of their UX leaving a nexus user with more options than others
4. World phone as a standard
5. Permanent discounts on most play content
Do you agree? What are your thoughts?

Are there smart and rational people on here? Absolutely. But that doesnt mean that I or anyone should really be bothered with what they say.
No xtacee, its not really who said, its whats been said.
What if I told you all that? Do you think you agree? What are your thoughts?

Its not just a phone, its a way of life. Were Nexus. I don't think I can ever go back to a sense or touchwiz phone.

Still, it's just a phone. NO need to get so worked up over it.
And Android people like to call Apple's fans Isheep...
I REALLY want to know what you two were drinking. The last time I went on a rant like that I was drinking rum.

They were dipping paint chips in paint thinner like some kind of spaz nachos.
EDIT: Nvm read that wrong. The original quote is retarded though...
Jackass comments much? At least the OP is enthusiastic about something and has an original thread.

Good for you. Sowing the seed, that's what we humans do best.
Not sure if I am the annoying guy with the dumb question or the noob... but i am fairly sure I am both and more. probably more than that even, and a forum I have found is not the place for social debate...
Congratulations bro! I really hope everything goes well.
Better announcing it here than a Facebook full of people you don't know lol
Congrats

great phone
I just wish there was a shroud around the camera lens. Looks like it will easily scratch without a case.

Start getting everything kid proof!
Sent from a Soviet base in Indiana
Nah, they'll learn what they shouldn't touch lol. I never kid proofed and they turned out ok. Actually, the one cabinet I put kid proofing on had our plastic bags in it and the damn cat was addicted to licking them and she would get in there and make a mess. So we put a kid lock on there to keep the cat out.
Kid proof your phone lol. And any cabinets that have chemicals in them. Like under the sink or something.

Congrats man! I have a 15 month old boy and it's truly the best thing possible. People that don't have kids simply won't get it until they do. The best way I can put it is... see you on the other side of the matrix. Things really will be totally different when you get there. Good luck!
Also, while some people have no problems at all during pregnancy we weren't so lucky... be sure to take good care of the mom and do everything the doctors say. There's more at stake now than just hers our your health.
hey, make sure you buy her something nice. i didn't buy my wife a gift for my first child so the second birth cost me a Chanel J12.
that is a friendly reminder to everyone out there...
edit: glad i could stop by to kill the thread
