Joining/Creating Development Teams? - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Just wondering what, if any, are the perks of being on a development team? I make no claim to being a developer, but I do have a reasonable enough skill set to develop on Android if I desire.
I prefer to go lone ranger, as I did with Web development, but I see most of the teams on here are a handful or more people. I think it's cool, but is it difficult to join a team?
Welcome to the jungle, we've got fun and games.

That would be my biggest hangup right there.... I'd just have to run solo and get help along the way from whoever possible. No problem crediting who deserves it. I guess I've ran solo for so long I wouldn't know where to start.

In my opinion, yes you do. The way you went after the pulldown ani mod for ec05 shows the type of ingenuity and determination that should be looked for in a team member. Of course I don't make team decisions.
My suggestion would be to sign up over at acsyndicate.net, and PM flyers2114 with links to your work.

Greenmuggy,
ACS or no ACS you have done some nice work. I have nothing against ACS, worked with some of them before and they are very helpful group of people, Mystery, qbking, Amosher, Dreams, k0nane, and shane I have talked with all of them or contacted them for help at one time or another and they are decent guys. Anyways, what I'm saying is you don't necessarily need to be apart of a "click" or "group" to shine
Your work speaks for itself and that the bottom line...

Not much of a development community yet.

I am new to Samsung, I came from an HTC phone. Over on the EVO3d there was tons of roms and themes second bootloader was unlocked. Was just wondering how it is on this side. I miss flashing things lol.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
It seems like that, but in reality the phone was out for a month almost before it was unlocked. The devs had plenty of time to play with the contents of the phone.
This phone has been out like a week.
Woaah buddy, gotta be careful with what you say here.
Anyways, I came from the HTC evo 4g community which has been around a lot longer than this one. But still, it took a month or two to get things going.
I mean the 3D just got root like a month ago. I think progress here is going swimmingly. Just give a few more weeks.
We probably wont have the sheer quantity u are used to, but i assure you we will have plenty of high quality roms and themes.
I wasn't being negative. Was just wondering what developers are on this phone and what kind Samsung has. What I mean by not much of community is not many roms yet. If anyone thought I meant disrespect I'm sorry.

Well cyanogen now works for Samsung so what does that tell you about who Samsung has? ;-) I think Samsung is trying to turn its rep around.
I also came from the evo 3d and am very happy with the switch. Sure the evo 3d has a lot of roms but a lot of them are the same ****.. and there aren't too many "real" devs on the evo 3d.. a majority of them are just cooks who ran the stock rom through a kitchen just adding tweaks. Hell empire who clams to be a dev didn't write a single line of code. Just mashed up other peoples work

It SHOULD be stressed that only the founder Steve Kondik was hired, NOT Cyanogen as a whole. The team continues on, business as usual. Just to clarify
Rome wasn't built in a day. It's only been a week. I would rather have the devs take their time and release something solid and better than a themed stock ROM but that takes time... especially if it's thoroughly tested. It seems like a new trend to release ROMs with a few hours of testing so little things pop up like an apk missing or a function force closes. I will try ptfdmedic's ROM when it releases because I know his work from using it on my Epic. I am sure the devs are in the lab building masterpieces as we speak.

themikmik.com/showthread.php?7841-Theme-09-20-11-Blue-Glass-(V2.5.4)-for-Mik-2.5x
It'll take a bit but I'm certain we'll see increased activity soon.
First, based on comments, a good many probably just got their phones if they ordered from 3rd party vendors. Especially Let's Talk.
Secondly, the transition may take some getting used to. Going from OG Evo to 3D was primarily the same software. In fact, many probably worked with it with their OG Evo before they got the 3D. So now they have to "get to know" Touch Wiz, Odin, etc.

Don't start that flaming crap, just left the 3d and most of the threads are filled with flame this and flame that. Just sick of people talking **** because they don't approve of the location the op might have chose either on purpose or accident. Just saying that this forum is a nice change where you actually get help or learn something by reading the thread instead of following 9 million different arguments over bull.
