Hey, can someone answer this for me?
Why is "[ROM][21 Nov [UVDLJA v46] XquiziT xD - Aroma & Kitchen v11 - TMO ONLY!" say Thread Closed?
If i had to guess, it has something to do with what was in the last few posts in that thread. Hopefully the moderator will clarify in the near future what exactly is going on

He stole "kanged" work from other devs too, allegedly and I believe the others.

Ok, I don't know much but hopefully they get this solved I really like his ROM..
Why? He just updates his rom more commonly (all 800mb+) and breaks things a lot and steals others hard work without asking, or giving credit to them. (Allegedly), with proof, of course. I say use Frosty or Evil with the available themes in the themes and apps section. Xquizits roms always seemed okay... but too many broken things caused by pointless updates that are way too huge and should only require a seperate flashable 20mb zip.

I was with MIUI from Froyo but they are having problems with the JB, ok i will check them out. Which is the better of the 2?
Personal preferance. Try and see for yourself. they both feel extremely fast and I use seperate kernel usually so I can't attest to battery on either... just read the last 3-5 pages of each and make a decision that way.

Ok, Thanks
What sucks is that none posted a reason being closed. I think the community should know what's up. I think he thanked enough as he could on he's OP. If he missed someone then I personally would say sorry but he is awesome Dev. and if he missed someone, he's only human and forget what he put in your work sometimes.
I hope this gets resolved or at least someone explain why it's closed.
Remember "assume" always makes a A$$ of U and ME.

Yes I agree, I have been with his ROM since I stopped using MIUI and yesterday I was lossed when I saw the message stating that I was closed. I am hoping everything works out for him as well
There's a deference in using someones work and saying thanks to them, or giving credit, and stealing there work without asking and claiming it to be your own. Pretty much being a thief... If people were to donate to him cause of his rom that is wrongfully going to the person. EvilArt created hidden code and such in his work and he posted that XquiziT was using it in his roms and not giving credit. Other's have mentioned this as well about his roms. It's sad and sucks and I hope there was just some confusion, but evidence is evidence.
Another one gone because of freaking drama...

Yes I used the word "Wicked" in my Rom but nothing else. Wanam's 15 toggle code is where that word
came from a compare I did when my mod was fc'ing. I have done all my own mods why would I use Wicked's and the SystemUI.apk at that. Nothing special about that file and prob 85% or more of the S3 Roms are the same mods and would compare except the word "Wicked" that yes I included.
Anyway I will keep doing Roms for myself but will no longer be a part of XDA. Not because of XDA, because of what goes on there.
Thanks for all who supported me but as I have said before I take no donations as this is my fun and learning experience.
Thanks!

Well that sucks. I like Wild's ROMs and he may have took others work, but hell....the same code floats around from DEV to DEV anyway.
SN: Wicked ROM is actually pretty nice. I tried it once it was proven that Wild was stealing code from Evil. I think Wicked ROM needs inverted apps though. They make the ROMs like so much more classier!
Anyway, thanks Wild for all of your work and efforts. You put a lot of time into updating your ROMs and I'm sad to see you go bro.

Okay, I've been browsing xda since having a tmobile g1, and while I appreciate everything the developers do to advance things, im kind of annoyed with kingxclick or whatever name he goes by. It just seems to me he appears in various forums and takes existing roms, modifies them very slightly, and claims them as his own. He did that on the g1 forum and here he is on the evo forum doing the same. Has he contributed anything original, or is he just the hack I think he is?

He's complaining about a developer he believes takes someone's rom [say mikfroyo for example] makes a few base changes, and then says its his rom.

That's what I figured. The sad thing is that he pops up on the evo forum and nobody knows what he's up to. If he is providing fixes and developing his own roms, that would be one thing, but if he's just taking various rom fixes and implementing them in "king's evo! 8.73!" or whatever other flashy named rom, he is a disgrace to true developers and he should just be banned again.

Well I'm not sure I mean according to some all I do is swap out some PNG files and then call it my own. I will say this when I used my own base everyone wanted me to use Calkulins.
Well, considering his site isn't even active anymore (404's on the whole site), I don't think we'll be seeing much of him.
I find this post a little amusing. I remember when he was making kernels. I followed very closely, was excited about the next new King Kernel! Almost donated to him!. GE was asking for donations because he didn't even OWN an EVO!. And still made good kernels!
...then one day he posts on his twitter that he finally got his!.... Vibrant?. I questioned this move on his kernel forum and stated this seemed like a 2 faced move. Asking for donations to buy an evolution to better develop his kernels, only.to buy something else.
I was chastised for questioning the great king on his thread! And he even commented saying "geez, lighten up, I'm still saving for an evo. They are sold out here is all". I stopped visiting that thread and stopped using his kernels. I felt that was a really low move and was amazed so many people followed him after that.

I think a lot of people don't realize they can take any ROM they want and mod it to their hearts content for their personal use. It is a nice courtesy when they ask before posting it. Respect for sure.
I'd suggest PMing whatever dev/s that makes the base for what you are going to develop. Then anything you pick and choose from other peoples roms I'd suggest PMing them for permission also.

You are for sure right about that. There are some devs here that do request that you ask permissions first and give credit for their base. I'm just not one of them. I love to share. I think thats what its all about in the end.

I had not paid attention before today, but I noticed that Calkulin is not a recognized developer! I looked up what is required and he seems to fit the bill.
Maybe he has not filled out an application. I think in his case the moderators should upgrade him to Recognized Developer with or without an application. When I first purchased this phone and was trying to decide on which rom to start with, it became obvious that he was recognized even without the title. I saw more than one person posted that they bought this phone because they saw him developing for it. He is very involved with every leak or upgrade. His interaction with everyone is exemplary. His work provides a good base for other developers working with our phone.
Either way, Thanks Calk for all of your hard work. A lot of us appreciate it.
Edit: Thanks for thanking me, but I haven't developed anything. Go find something of Calk's that you have not thanked him for and thank him. He is the one that deserves it! And remember to thank the other developers and people that help.
I assume that maybe he doesn't want to have that status. He is most definitely a Dev though. I've used his ROM's since the Windows mobile days.... Very smart man =)
That should tell you something about xda... if you can't pick up on the clue.

I think that everyone agrees with you. He is too busy developing to care if he has a title on this site. It hasn't and won't keep him from developing. I have seen a number of recognized developers around the forums and thought that he deserved it. In the OP I said that he maybe hadn't filled out an application, and he probably has not and doesn't care.
I was just posting because I thought he deserved the sign of respect.

I'm quite sure this is the deal.
He'd been developing for the OG EVO for a long time here on XDA as well. He knows he's a great Dev, the community knows he's a great Dev, and that's really all that matters. He obviously doesn't care about titles and I respect him for that.
I always wondered about those. Seems like a lot of well know themers\devs do not have recegnized developer or themer. I would love to know how they choose.
There is only one benifit to having that title. Being able to lock and close your own threads. That's it. Other than that its just words. Everyone knows Calk is extremely talented and that's all that really matters. So I don't blame him for not worring about it. I have seen many with that title and Calk deserves it way more then they did. But ah well. If he ever wants it just has to fill out the form.
Who is Calkulin and what does he do?
PS: he saved my Samsung Moment from flying into a brick wall at 50 MPH.

Agreed. That was my first experience with his work and then I used his work on my brother's Evo. Now I use it on this once again. I can' ask for a more dedicated developer. Glad he picked this phone up to dev on.
This is the first time I have used any of his work. He never did anything on my previous phone. But still, from what I've seen he seem like a really cool cat. Respected and rightfully so and never harsh to answer a question. I think it would be nice for him to have the title so he could have more control over his threads and such. But he doesn't need it to get mine or many others respect.

+1 to the comment he doesn't need a title to have my respect.
Calkulin's ROMs were my first experience with anything other than stock rooted. I like his work and think this community would miss him tremendously if he left.
I have run Calkulin's roms on, I believe, 5 devices going back several years. I also used his kitchen to cook my own Windows Mobile roms back in the day.
The man is a legend.
Hey guys!
It's me again! I've offered, to help, with the ViciousWiz/Sense/Blur projects. And I'm here to say, it's all gonna work out fine! This thread will be used, to post changelogs, dl links, and for support!
So first; a few things, that DO work!:
ADB
logcat
WiFi should be working, now
It's not booting (yet) (It is in the bootanimation, that's why this is in the Working" part )
What's not working:
Phone, SMS/MMS
boot
dmesg (Even though logcat is working...? )
Everything else...
I have a request, aswell. I need someone, to make an app, with sweet tweaks!
I have a tester, who is willing tp create an app, for that. But two is better than one, right?!
So, I guess the first dl link will be posted in the next few hours
Addition: the changelogs will be posted in the original thread AND here. I have created this thread, in case I forget, to post it, on the other thread If you are unhappy with this, tuff ^^
Quick announcement: I'll be creating TWO ROMs. One, will be the original TWiz ROM, where I offered help. Secnond will be ALSO a TWiz ROm, but with a few customizations
SO, one stock version, and another version, which will be modded
PLEASE READ: My laptop broke a couple of days ago. I had the ROM, prted it over to my SIII, to see if it works. IT DOES! But, uhmm... I can't work, for the next couple of weeks. I need to get a mnew computer, before anything else, so... Sorry guys! I'll post the link, as soon as I've recovered it, from my HDD. I just hope it'll work on your devices, just as it did on my GSIII!
<Reserved>
This is great!, looking forward to a stable sense ROM.

Luckily, beforehand i got his permission to post his work on a torrenting site along with the images he used in his postings to help with download availability. I'll seed as long as I can. If you download, please seed at least overnight while you sleep, or as long as you can, so that they will be available for others. They can be found here:

The Sickness Edition V2 has JUST been posted so give people time to download it and start seeding. Might take a day or so.

At the request of "The Sickness" i have removed these links. He specifically stated he closed his threads because he did not want anyone to download them any more.
If you want a copy of anything related to S3 or S4 for MetroPCS (And TMobile for S4) please let me know via PM. This type of situation is why i collect the files and back them up.
His ROMs were, by my opinion, the best out there by FAR for our device.. So many options, so fast, and so well made. Kinda upset that i'm a little upset with him for doing this. But whatever. Let me know if you guys need anything.
EDIT: I didn't mean to leave out every one who helped him! They deserve just as much credit for these fine ROMS.
First you open after approval...
Now closed on de devs request?

Out of respect yes. I took the link down. You have a problem with that or something?

Sorry, you misunderstood.
I didn't mean it out off respect.
I was just asking.
Maybe because I'm surprised by the sickness choice to close...

What the hell? Did I miss something as to why he did this? I see no form of abuse or trolling on his thread(s).
Only hint I'm getting at is his post here.
Sickness, if you're reading this please understand there are hundreds, possibly even thousands of people who appreciate your work. Hence the download count on all your ROMs put together. Do NOT get stressed out by the lack of "thanks" on your posts. Just think of the download counts, and knowing your hard work is currently being/already installed on hundreds of rooted phones, as a thank you from the people who don't click that button. I too would be frustrated with the lack of appreciation because I'm the same way and expect some form of praise for my hard work.
But after all your donations, and your current "thanks meter", you should not get stressed over this.
If this is completely not the reason you removed all your download links, then disregard this post. Just wanted to let you know to not let things like that get to you regardless.
Your ROM is the only updated fully customized TW based ROM on this forum for this device. And for those who need WiFi Calling I'm pretty sure this is the go-to ROM. And it always will be, for me at least.

Oh, sorry.
Hard to say why. Developers undergo LOTS of stress. One will never know just how much just stress until you become one. and this is in his free time so im sure he threw up the middle finger when he'd had enough.... I would have.

I don't think a donation would do much in this situation. His links are down everywhere. So something has obviously pissed him off over the edge. Sounds to me he's going to get a new device and start over in whichever subforum that may be, and leave the S4 behind. Probably deleted everything off his hard drive as well because I don't think he's going to spend the time re-uploading everything. Kind of depressing, actually. Those who DID support him got the shaft.
Also check your PM's when you get a minute, bro.

Think he said he had a Note3, so that is why he no longer had an S4. I agree with the making a donation being a waste - did that on another S4 Dev who walked, so these shafts are getting a bit old. There was not much development being done on this one anyway for some time - mostly theming - nothing functional.
Will probably keep this a Multiboot primary ROM for now , and hope if we get the next generation Android, someone else will pick it up. In the meantime, some nice AOSP and other base ROMs to mess with. If the OP of Omega could somehow get WiFi calling incorporated - that would be the way to go. Talk about a dev with some real class.
Chill out on the shaft talk guys. You don't know what his plans are or why his threads closed.
He specifically closed his threads because of ungrateful , complaining posts all in his threads. It hasnt even been 12 hours yet. Let the man chill

The shaft subject is in regards to every single link of his being removed from any kind of distribution. Even the OP who was nice enough to upload them to torrents was asked to remove them. That doesn't just happen unless the dev calls it quits. Removing the links from XDA is understandable, but when the links are no where to be found on dev-host and androidfilehost under his accounts, it's only obvious where it's headed.
He can take all the chill out time he needs. I'm just saying that the people who support him are getting the shaft because he just released v4 of the Sickness Modz which can't be downloaded now. Along with his custom edition ROM.

He is mad because people are ungrateful that he put times in this and only around 10 percent or less of the people that down thank him

Just so everyone knows my boy The Sickness "for real" lol... gave me permission to post a download link to Insanity V9 in my theme thread since all my themes are based off of Insanity Rom and the last few days I been bustin a $$ inverting all the required apks as a base to bring all of my themes over to the S4. But just so everyone knows there will be no more updates/dev work on it as of now but maybe hopefully he will come back and drop a bad ass update for everyone! So by tomorrow i will have posted and ported over some dope ass themes for everyone to enjoy and in my threads i will have a link to download Insanity V9 to go with it.

I understand. But I talked to him earlier. This is temporary. He feels unappreciated and is frustrated about how much work he puts into the roms for people to post whiny rude posts in his thread. That's all
He's not "shafting" us

Like evil1art with his WICKED and dannyben with his dbombROM
All the time the same story. evil1art with his WICKED and dannyben with his dbombROM. Make an nice Roms - Donation - Disappear (without to say goodbye...)
Can only take being rudely treated for so long.

+1 - that is what I was talking about - plus a few more earlier on different devices.
As for abuse, I had notified the Moderator a few times on the ROM thread when it started to get out of hand and it was cleaned. This just goes with the territory - the more active the thread, the more BS will come out of the woodwork.
