I think there's a bit more going on than just helping solve 'network issues'
Maybe more to do with the FBI covering it's ass so they don't get caught.
Ever read "1984"? It's a great book, I love it. Uncle Sam does too, it's full of great ideas...

Obviously Samsung is running scared if they have an update that removes CIQ.

I found "The Giver" a little better. But I agree with you. 1984 is a good book.

That is a very good book from what I've read. I need to go back and finish it. Off to the app store

My dad made me read 1984, you can find the movie free online too (for educational reasons) , it should be a required reading for all Americans.

Just wanted to say thank you!

I just finished rooting, putting cwm and blu kuban on my phone.
It took me a while to figure out what the heck I was supposed to do and in what order, but I did it!
I just want to thank all you guys here who do all the developing, managing the threads, making the youtube instructional videos and reviews. It really helped a lot! I didn't brick my phone and I look forward to trying out some new stuff after I master Blu Kuban!
You guys rock!

Be careful. Your wife and or s/o (see what I did there?) will soon feel like they are not the top priority anymore and that's all you'll hear about. It's addicting.

:wife: well why would u want to do that? Whats the matter with it now?
:me: nothings the matter with it just something I want to try out.
:wife: well u better not break that phone. Those things aren't cheap ya know.

I had to read my wife this thread. she is always yelling at me because when we sit down at the end of the night to watch tv i am usually just constantly messing with my phone. she is always complaining that i am not being with her and talking with her as a result. i dont know what to tell her but she felt better and thought it was funny that she is not the only one. not to mention i have an hp touchpad running cm9 nighlies so if its not my phone its that. i am sure there are a lot more of us out there.

While I don't personally use CM, I'll gladly stand behind them in their reclamation effort.

That sucks! Glad it's not worse than it is.

Wow thats pathetic! CM has done so much for their supporters and practically for free... they dont deserve this treatment. I hope the best for CM and the rest of the team

Hope he gets sued out of existence.

4chan and anonymous aren't mercenaries for hire or a personal army to troll douche bags. Best we can do is let the CM team handle the legal aspects and try and find a way, legally, to help them get their site back or setup a new one for them with a diff domain.

I agree, I was just being sarcastic. I do hope the best of this for the CM crew. It's a shame the a generous group of folks got taken advantage of like this.

Siri Story

For the record, I'm anti-Apple. With that said, I'll tell my story.
So I don't remember how we got on the topic, but a friend and I at work were talking about time-zones the other day. I think we were joking about getting rid of it or something and about how dark it would be at certain times of the day, yadda yadda... Just BS'ing basically... Well at some point during this pointless discussion the question came up: "What time is it in Hawaii?"
Well this friend at work has an iPhone, he's always bragging about it and "how much better it is" and we always have our friendly bashing on each other. Well he's like "here, let me ask someone who knows" and asks his iPhone "What time is it in Hawaii"
I'm waiting and listening... Nothing.
He's looking at his precious iPhone and eventually goes "Oh this happens sometimes, it's bringing up search instead, it must not have understood me, let me do it again."
He says again "What time is it in Hawaii"
I'm sitting there and my smile starts forming, because I still hear nothing and I can see the look on his face.
This is of course when I smoothly and calmly chime in and make a snide remark like "That paperweight doesn't understand you. Here, let me try a real device." I tap the widget and ask my S3: "What time is it in Hawaii?" Within literally 2 seconds, it comes back and the Google Lady robot voice goes "It is currently 5:03 PM in Hawaii" And shows the Time on the screen.
He walked away and didn't talk to me for a while. :laugh:
Just thought I'd share my actual live experience with the whole Siri/Google (Now) comparison.
Google: 1 - iPhone: 0.
