I've lost my Wildfire S in a hospital somewhere, I don't know where it went. It's probably out of battery by now, but I've locked the IMEI and SIM, as well as installing Plan B from the Android Market Google Play Store. I live in Cardiff, so we're all awesome pro-hackers and anybody who get's hold of it who knows phones like me or you will just unlock it. They can keep it if they're that clever actually
I've called lost and found, etc. but no luck. If it turns up I'll continue development for the phone, but if not then I'm guessing I'm going to have to buy a new phone, most likely a One V or One S.
I'd like to say that you guys were brilliant, the amount of development when I came here was nothing, I've taught noobs to become pro developers, have had my posts trolled, have been donated a bit of money, made a pointless rom and good ones too.
If I find it, I'll probably still buy a new phone, but develop for this one, not my new one. I came here a noob to contact a developer to download their theme (I think, I can't remember very well) as the links they put up on their thread wouldn't open on my phone, I then contacted alquez and asked if he needed help from a noob like myself, he told me about adb, etc.
Around that time, I made my first port, it was an ICS port from the Aria, it took longer than it looked...
As I tried to mess about with kernels and some other totally pointless stuff to try and fix the touchscreen bug we had. Of course I didn't know what I was doing but I was learning every second I Googled a problem. I felt like we had a lot of developers in the forum all working alone, so I established (as a noob) the WFSDEV team. I learned a lot there but people left, and I made .sense, my first ROM. It grew into something awesome, then became too big and caved in.
Then I.. I don't even know what I was doing then... Probably busy with stuff
Then Ivan, Henry, Oliver and myself started wasting our time on a Sense 4 port. That failed by the way, and was attacked by a 'developer'. We worked hard on that port but it never did boot fully
I started working on a new ROM, Roboto and Ivan worked on a mod called MarvelMod, we decided to combine ROMs and make RobotoMod, based on .sense's AROMA code. It worked, it had bugs but it worked
So then, I ported Jelly Bean to our phones and after that it brings me to now I guess, of course there was stuff in between all of that
So, as a final note:
Thank you to the devs who I learnt from and you're welcome to the people who use my stuff.
As a final present to you guys, I'll be porting Project Llama to this phone, at least the first build.

I do wish that you find the phone. Even if you don't, keep visiting k?
Thanks for everything you did for this community and please ignore haters/flamers.
umm this post sounds more like I'm paying my regards to a dead person lol.

Anyways Thanks again on behalf of whole community. Keep developing... You're good at it.

First I just want to say if your going to flame me then F*** you, this is a forum and I live in America... so freedom of speech and such...
I must say that I'm a little dissapointed in Sammy's lack of support yet again with this device where they are supporting the international version but we here state side get the shaft just like with the original gs versions. My phone before this was the Samsung vibrant and if it wasn't for great development there would have been Jack squat to do on that phone. I can only imagine what the og epic went through. Now while I appreciate what the devs for the ET have managed to pull of for the device so far which is pretty impressive.... but I think that fact the AT&T GSII has cm7 miui and a booming device community is BS just because its innards are so close to the euro GSII... Sammy needs to get their **** together and give our devs the tools they need to get this community exploding! I love my phone but I like the majority of he people here love to flash and flashing and flash and flash and flash and with only 3 or 4 Tom's to choose for I'm frankly getting bored...... so am I disappointed? Yea, a little bit...

First off, your first line is know way to start a thread. If you feel the need to start a thread that way, maybe you shouldn't start it?
Second, Samsung has nothing to do with what our devs or gsm devs do with the phone. GSM has more users and because we are CDMA it takes longer to get things like CM and MIUI working on our devices.
Next time you start thread telling people F U, you might want to get your f'n facts straight and like you said it is America and it is freedom of speech so everyone has a right to say what they want about your thread.....
This thread = fail!

They tie together. Samsung makes great phones and they come with the latest software. Only problem is when an update comes, we're usually last to get it. Not that it's bad or anything, they're just slow. I do wish, however, that they'd step it up by fixing the LoS and soundpool bug. We'll see how it goes this time around. Epic just got GB this week. Took them nearly a year after GB was released.
You will really be disappointed when T mobile version gets CM before us. They have a different chip-set so it should be harder, in theory.

First off I didn't point any fingers at anyone but flametards like yourself who go around trolling the forums, i was expecting someone like yourself to take that line as bait and just like a troll you bit!
Secondly, Samsung has almost everything to do with what our devs can do. if you followed the OG ET then you would have seen what can get done with no source codes. HTC releases the source for their phones and they usually have a great dev community... So by simple mathematics I deduced that source = good dev community and no source = slow dev community. Also by simple mathematics I was able to deduce that your flame = predictable+expected+double Fail!

You know how you get more Roms for the SGS2. Buy all the developers in the EVO section an SGS2 and you will have a lot more Roms.....
I agree with you op about the source code. I think the flaming is being done because how you started your post. Not the nicest of ways to do it. Besides there are very young kids on here as well.

People say that all the time after they get owned. "bla bla bla bait, bla bla bla you bit". Same old crap from people who obviously have no clue what they're talking about. Maybe you just need to take an oxy and chill out buddy.
CDMA is more difficult to work with than GSM. How do I know this? Well I've used both. You can flash the crap out of a GSM phone and the odds of you truly bricking it are slim. CDMA, different story. You flash the wrong partition and everything is toast.
"Secondly" The T Mobile version will probably be even easier to develop for than any other given it's SOC. Sure it's different but development for the Snapdragon vs. Exynos? No comparison. Part of the issue is Sammy but I understand their waiting. ICS was just released, albeit they had it well in advance because of the new Nexus. They are holding off on giving us anything because they're focusing on ICS for all their compatible phones. It's sucks but I'm more than happy to wait.

Fixed OP.
I may be a relative n00b, but at least I know how to use this forum. A little bit of effort scrolling through this forum alone would have yielded the previous five posts THIS WEEK about the same "lack of source code/ICS/development" etc. The devs are working for free. Samsung, in order to turn a profit, sell more than one model. To the best of my knowledge, they do not have a single team of dedicated developers working on our phone for us.

I think it absolutely immature and retarded that people flame Bubby. He's a friggin 14 year old kid for christ sakes. Grow the hell up people, he's doing some really good work for this phone. I've been using CM7 since Alpha 4 and now on Alpha 5 it has everything except 4g which is useless to me.
90% of the ROMs for the E4GT are KANG'ed ROMs based off of Caulk's with a few different apps, a custom theme (if they bother) and some init.d scripts. That's not dev'ing, that's copy and pasting. This phone has been out forever now and Bubby is the only person to deliver us CM7, no one else Dev'ing here cared enough to do it or (or simply didn't have a friggin clue how) - so flame me, flame Bubby, who gives a **** honestly. You keep running your "custom" TW ROMs and enjoy that ****ty overlay. The rest of us will be hanging out on AOSP CM7.1.

I have to say that he is absolutely right, NO offense to the Devs here at all but really in all honestly AOSP development is actual development, with the exception of things like TSM parts and things like that. I really can't grasp why everyone jumps on Bubby the way they do. Sure he may have done somethings that wasn't exactly the greatest things to do but he IS doing something. I have been patiently waiting for a broader AOSP selection as I am not a Dev so all I can do is wait or try to learn it "which I am but its a slow process".
I also have to say that I am shocked at the actions of some of our moderators on these boards as some seem to stir up more drama then they prevent. All im saying is cut the kid some slack. He seems to honestly be trying to do some good work. It may not be 100% fully working but its alot farther then other CM7 builds I have seen for other phones. And I also haven't seen any competitive builds that were any better.

No but its the flaming that went on XDA doesnt have CyanogenMod7 in the DEV section. You have to admit that whole situation was lame #FAIL-XDA. Seriously, from the T-mo sections threads that spilled into a Dev thread, and the Mods leading the charge! They figured bubby would quit, someone else would come to the rescue since DATA/PHONE was working and drop a KANG here, it backfired on them What about the people who said once we have CM we have ICS, where did they go? Or the ones who said now that the thief is gone we will see some real AOSP development? Where are those people/roms, please I would love to try one out? I agree he didnt need to flame the dev's, but if I recall a few Dev's were one the flame throwing side when bubby was in the "Hot Seat".

They figured bubby would quit, someone else would come to the rescue since DATA/PHONE was working and drop a KANG here, it backfired on them What about the people who said once we have CM we have ICS, where did they go? Or the ones who said now that the thief is gone we will see some real AOSP development? Where are those people/roms, please I would love to try one out? I agree he didnt need to flame the dev's, but if I recall a few Dev's were one the flame throwing side when bubby was in the "Hot Seat".

I totally agree what went down on XDA was lame and we lost out on a great dev here but no need to knock the people we do have here. We don't want to lose them as well. There is definitely enough room for everyone and then some.
Besides, I think the bubby haters have disappeared from the E4GT section anyway.
These people keep bringing that **** here, stop spamming XDA just cause you are bored at Rootzwiki, go home to your AOSP, damn!
P.S. Not hating, just stating the obvious and you all should just let it go.
I still haven't had the chance to try it out, so I don't have any personal experience to report like I said I would...
! Also: Can we get the forum replies back on track and focused on the mod itself and not Bubby? Lot of "junk" (no offense to anyone) to go through looking for insight and mod-related discussion only to find none

As you can tell its a sore subject around here and unfortunately every so often someone brings it up again. Hey I am running Touchwiz, CM7(right now) and MIUI just because I like variety. The kid has done a great job like others have said. I personally don't care about his bs but honestly we got to do a better job of searching before we post since a new thread about this was just posted on 1/6 check here, with some unhappy people...LOL

I'm seeing the exact same thing on bubby's thread and Gman's thread on rootzwiki. Who is the real dev on this?
Hi all
I am not a big active poster here but love to run different toms on my phone...
I came here from the EVO forums after a switch the the E4GT.
It seems like every time I pick a ROM it goes dead right after I flash it.
Started on Blazer...No activity for months
Moved to AOKP and a couple of days later the thread implodes and is completely gone.
Yesterday I installed paranoidandroid and that thread gets closed.
Why is everyone ditching their roms? or removing the threads when they still contain critical information that is useful?
Thanks
I dont think anyone is ditching their roms. Sometimes they just wait for something better like the ICS OTA or for source. But you have to remember that the devs have a life outside of deving. Maybe their are facing personal issues that doesnt give them time to update their roms.

Calk is leaving. Remember, work phone/changing jobs. lol
There are a lot of good, active ROMs out there. Spend time in the Dev section and read through the comments, you'll be able to pick up what's still active very easily.
Things will also pick up when ICS ota comes and source drops.

please dont misunderstand me....I fully respect the Devs have a life...I was mainly talking about Threads dissapearing or being locked. If I dev needs time that is fine as you still have the thread to ask questions or reseach issues. Once the thread goes away or is closed you are limited in your options.
Sorry if I was misunderstood...
If I deleted a thread it was because it needed to be deleted, for reasons that may not be known to the common member. There's a lot that goes on behind the scene, its not just cut and dry.

Blazer has only gotten so far since ICS started leaking, I mean your coming in pretty late in the phones life. I always liked Calk's rom but since CM9 got so far so quick I am sticking with that for the life of the phone. AOKP will pick up eventually.
i think paraniod android just moved locations but is still active.

I too am coming from the EVO and EVO 3D and the type of dev support and activity you are used to for those two phones just isnt the same as for the epic. We have great devs in here it just seems like they arent as active as they are for the EVO series of devices I also dont think you have near as many ROMs to choose from either.

I would say you haven't spent near enough time in the Dev section if you don't think our level of support is on par with other phones.
Also, to the comment regarding number of ROMs, you're talking about a phone that is over two years old (EVO) and a phone that is barely 10 months old. Yes I know the EVO 3D isn't much older but it already had a base to build on coming from the OG EVO.
Besides, we're a community that believes in quality over quantity.

Now that^^^^ answer to one above ^^^ was right on point. You are not a true android enthusiasts if you cant see the difference between these roms. Honestly I go into the Evo forum since I was a big part of that forum for a year and all I see is the same rom split in 12 different pieces. In this forum there happens to be some pretty great developers and all working on different stuff. The roms you happened to pick were by the same guy. So if his life has sent him in a different direction and he can not keep putting out quality work then either you pick it up for him or choose a different rom.
Sorry man not trying to be harsh but I just dont believe in the nice guy crap. It is what it is. Loved the Evo but in the beginning over there it was the same as it was over here. Not sure if you remember but there were like 2 roms out for a while and the steps to root were crazy(like 40 steps). My friend jump on CM9 lay back and enjoy the ride or hey you can always go back to an Evo3d
i didnt come from any other phone except the intercept(crap). and i think that CM9 has the most activity of the roms, only bcuz there are soo many phones that have been ported. and Esoteric68 is right the EVO has had way more time to come out with roms. and our phone is still fairly new compared to the EVO series. but you gotta make do with what you have, once source comes out for ICS for our phone, we'll have more roms and more things going on.

Yes its because so many users think they are the chosen 1. I mean xda is a hell of a place if you know how to use it. I have learned to do so much just by searching these threads with any issue I have. I have themed my own stuff made changes to the system files and basically tweaked the hell out of my phone just by searching the web. My attitude is I am damn sure not the first person to ask whatever question I have to ask and knowledge is the key(hmm heard that somewhere)
With people demanding stuff and claiming stuff is broken when they are the only ones with the issue and then addressing it rudely in a thread does not make a developer WANT to do anything for you. I could go on for a while on the BS I have seen.
We need to take what these developers have given us and be grateful as well as learn how to fix some of this stuff ourselves. If you can not help yourself then either ask nicely or #gositdownsomewhere

I am using ParanoidAndroid atm and it seems awesome! I hope some avenue opens so that it can stay current.
Alright, 2 of the best Rom threads were closed in the last day because this community is going down the drain. I have never seen so many terrible and entitled people in my life. AOKP and Paranoid Android were 2 roms that I and KBizzle had asked to be ported to our phone, TCP and KBizzle were so gracious and awesome that they came through for me. Now a lot of the people in the threads are thinking that they (KB and TCP) owe them something and can order and talk down to them when they post a new Rom and something like 4G doesn't work, or the browser. Get over yourselves and realize that this is all done for free in their spare time, they have lives and work to do, not be at y'alls beck and call for a new build everyday. The EVO and Nexus S communities were and still are soo much friendlier and nicer to all the devs for their hard work and time put into their work. All I can ask for is everyone to stop with the attitudes and start contributing if you think they are too "slow" for you. I would ask a MOD to clean all the stuff up but I believe there is too much garbage to go through everyday. I hereby volunteer myself to be an AOSP MOD for the DEV section, I will go through the AOSP threads and delete all the garbage.
That is all. I am tired of losing roms and devs because people here are so rude.

Damn shame there's always A GROUP OF IDIOTS that ruin things. K biz is always so good at replies & helping, just all around good developer. In the light of the gsIII on its way, it's sad because it's just a little bit easier to lose more talented gentlemen. I would like to say thankyou to kbiz and others as well im thankful for Ports & Roms. I actually followed the paranoid tablet rom & I'm still on alpha 3 with the tablet theme just for 4g however i'd never criticize a developer for a feat. Not working, & i wish others would do the same.
I truly hope the thread being closed will be reconsidered! For some of us it's just that much more difficult to figure out how to PM. Hell i can't even upload a pic lbvs. Just keep in mind that once you reach "Celebrity" status idiots are gonna come out in #'s man but just remember the fans willalways out number haters! and it would be an injustice for your amazing art to be shelved! Remember "1 monkey don't stop no show"!
And for the record i changed my avatar to reflect my love for "paranoid Android"!
This ends up happening on XDA for every device I've had so far. I know users are ridiculous, but it's just as ridiculous to take your ball and go home. Quit updating, that's fine, but many times they lock down threads and stop hosting the files.
I'm an official moderator for BioWare, and I guarantee this community will never get as unruly and entitled as the Mass Effect 3 fans. I don't get paid to do it, I can't accept donations either, and I haven't gotten mad and stormed out.
Perhaps, if they can't take the stress of handling people, they should use volunteer community managers for their ROMs.

Devs don't need community managers, as each one of the people that follow a rom should do their part to learn and help develop. Rom users are not customers, and should not expect customer service.

I wish the the rules for the developer section besides the 10 post or more" can't post any replies or comments unless you have contributed (developed anything) at least two things on the forums". This would definitely cut down ungrateful posts, and for the ones that could actually post would actually know that contributing anything is not that easy and would not take things for granted. I came across some sites like that required you to at least contribute whatever,haha. It would actually make xda developers, a hardcore developer site.
It happens everywhere the evo3d was the worse I have seen thus far devs dropped like flys for a good bit over there, its lame really but some people are just like that about everything in life lol.

I feel sorry for the OP.
you guys should be ashamed of yourselves. I Looked for a topic like this when i was trying to decide what to replace my One X With so well done OP for the idea.
As Wilks3y said, the OP doesnt need you to tell him that his Topic is pointless.
If a moderator deems this topic pointless, it will be closed for being pointless
all you guys do by spamming hate to the OP is get threads like this closed because of flaming
so really rather than just looking and thinking "huh, this thread is pointless" and going on your way, you take the time to abuse the OP and possibly get a thread closed because of it.
just because this thread is not useful to you, doesn't mean it won't be useful to somebody else.

I have had the one x since launch day. At the time it was a premium device but as the time passed its flaws became apparent.
Within the first 2 days my gps unit went faulty. Was sat in my front room doing 70mph apparently.
2nd unit has been good.
The main problem with the one x I had was very poor battery life. By the time I was home from work it was almost flat.
Recently a design flaw of the polycarbonate body became apparent.
As the months of been sat in my pocket everyday the device has flexed to the point that the Sim card is no longer correctly sitting against the contacts.
2-3 times a day it will just say sim card removed. And I will not be able to work it again until I have taken oy out and insert 2-3 times.
As the Sim tray requires a small pointy object you can imagine that this can be very troublesome if I'm out of the house.
I decided it was time for change.
After researching I came to a choice of 3.
Galaxy s4 i9500 octa core
HTC one
Nexus 4
The octa core s4 is apparently not coming to the UK so that is out the window.
The HTC one looks like a nice device but as far as custom ROMs go I think the same limitations with no soff will apply to that as what have appeared here on the one x.
Which leaves the nexus 4.
For only £280 for the 16gb model it is a steal.
I went with it and I'm glad I did.
After arriving I instantly unlocked and installed paranoid android because of the amazing feature called pie which means I can get rid of the horrible on screen buttons and replace it with a very fancy set of pull up buttons.
This was the only issue I had with the nexus4 not having capacitive buttons but I have already adapted to the pie controls.

As far as performance goes, it destroys the onex. With a little kernel tweaking it surpassed the HTC one in benchmarks and only slightly behind the yet released s4 octa.
At present I have been off charge for 15 hours With average usage and still have 40% battery left.
Compared with the one x that would be nearly flat after 8-9 hours of same usage.
All in all while I did enjoy my one x, the nexus 4 is in a whole other league, competing and holding it's own with today's new releases. All that, and for <£300
What more do I need to say.
Though I am sad that my one x crapped out on me. I'm also happy that it did, for making me end up buying a nexus 4
