Take a look in the Development section
The KF is not an OG nor is it from the CPT.
There is no current AOKP. You can use the pure AOSP r1 build, Official CM10.1 nightly, cm10.1 w/ SGT7, or any of the other roms in dev section.
Look at my signature for the most recent builds.

Hints why I said "making sure I didn't miss anything." It could be possible that it is only posted on another forum besides XDA since Paacman for the Razr HD is only available officially at Droid-Hive but yet you can find roms on DroidRazr that you cant find here, and vice versa.

Lol try following your advice. Do you realize how many threads aokp is mentioned in just in the dev section? I did search..again...hints the words did I overlook something. I couldn't have over looked it if I didn't look/search in the first place.
Now I see what people mean on other forums when they say "this isn't xda." Lol
Just because I don't post much here doesn't mean I don't know how forums work or contribute elsewhere.

Congrats, I guess you used the other 30 seconds to come back and troll. Thanks for proving my points though.
@Xplorer4x4,
With this kind of attitude, you will get no where near help you need in XDA, not only in this sub-forum but XDA in general.
There is no rule forcing you not to post but you MUST find the answer on your own, no one here will help you look for it if you don't even do a little homework yourself.
How many AOKP THREAD in the Development section? Find your own answer. READ.
For your info, trolling like this won't get you far in life either so change your attitude if you can. It will help you.

There is an old saying, you have to give respect to get respect. I came in, asked a simple question to make sure I did not over look something when I SEARCHED the dev forum, Instead I get a response like "Take a look in the Development section " I mentioned this in my op, all be it discreetly. Then I get a smart ass answer like "The KF is not an OG nor is it from the CPT." Perhaps this was intentended to be humorous but text on a screen often has a way of being misinterpreted. Had a "lol" a "" or something of that degree ben included, maybe I would have picked up on the attempt at humor. Since I fail to see the humor, you tell me, who got attitude first? Then asf58967 keeps coming back to the thread to provide more derogative comments. I subscribed to the thread to get updates. What's his excuse?

Like I said, many times before, I asked if I overlooked anything..and like I said before, in order to over look something, I have to have searched or browsed the forum. If you READ you will understand I did my home work and look at the usefulness of the responses minus the later part of asf58967 first post which started with a smart ass answer.

lol trolling? I actually had a reason to keep coming back to the thread. You might want to take the rose colored glasses off and read the thread again. Furthermore, I been a member here for 3 years and have under 80 posts. I would say I don't require much help.
I do development outside of android, so I understand fully the thought process behind search first, ask second. It drive me up a frigin wall, and is part of the reason I abandoned my former projects.You know why I search first, a number of reasons but the most important answer is that searching will often get you an instant answer rather then sitting on your ass waiting what could be hours for some one to reply.

Not sure if you are serious or sarcastic, but as far as I can tell...no. Which surprises me. From my understanding of android development, Hascode has all the drivers and such working so it shouldn't be hard to port that to the AOKP base. I can understand if the original dev did not have time to maintain it but I am surprised no one else has picked it up.

Listen man, I am sorry you have been so offended. Yes the OG from CPT was a joke. I live in los Angeles near the CPT. The bottom Line is people here participate ALOT and the spirit of xda is based on finding knowledge before posting a thread - that way all new threads end up useful, as opposed to there being 5000 threads of "how do I root my Kindle" or "is there an AOSP ROM".

Im just curious how the testing is going really looking forward to this
As far as I know, good. Its in the Alpha stage and some testers are doing there thing. I would have tested, but I don't have a micro-HDMI adapter.

It may be because he already had his alpha testers, and easier to close it [temporarily] to prevent the thread from getting spammed up, with "HOW'S IT GOING?!" and "WHEN CAN WE EXPECT IT?" Easier to re-open it after he first round of testing, post bugs, and resume normal life. Again, just my thoughts.
I'm not sure what happened with the OP of that thread but I know toast and Shinzul are working on it for CM7 right now.
Orrebmas has been in contact with his testers and progress is good. He has asked to not release details about development at this time. He did direct me to this post http://forum.androidcentral.com/htc-evo-4g-rooting-roms-hacks/35955-evo-hdmi-out-mirroring.html My guess is that will be the place he will announce it being available for use.

Really? I just signed on to xda to thank the original developer for his hard work and now we are doing the hush hush thing?
Over the next few days, I'm going to do a bit of tidying up in the various Defy sections.
The first part of that involves a new sticky in each section clearly stating what that section is for, what threads are or are not appropriate (ie no questions in the Dev section).
Hopefully this'll help cut down on the number of threads that need moving.
The proposed second part I would like some feedback on...
The act of stickying certain threads/guides/etc I've always found a little hit-and-miss and can inadvertently lead to unintended favouritism, not to mention you can eventually end up with a ridiculous number of threads stickied.
So the idea I had was that in the General and Dev sections (the two that currently have stickied threads), those threads would be un-stickied and replaced with a roll-up thread - kinda like this except there would be no other threads stickied along with it (other than the one mentioned in the first part that would explain the purpose of the section).
It's just a way of trying to keep the section as tidy as possible, though it's not the messiest, which is why I'm not 100% set on going ahead and would prefer to hear what people think.
A little clean up is a good idea.
I'm for a main roll-up thread in every section, that way the useful guides/infos will be easier to find/edit.

support the idea fully (both), but have to ask for something: to always keep that one stickied thread up-to-date, otherwise it has no sense. and the thread you linked didnt mention the 'all-in-one defy beginners guide' which i find very useful for everybody, so i think that should be involved too. and thanks for looking after the defy section, it did get quite messy over the last few weeks, months.

Voted for the roll-up thread. What suggestions could we have about it? Like, which threads should be included?
I hate it when someone quotes the OP's post after 20-30 pages only to ask a question whose answer was in the previously 20-30 unread pages. Also, when someone quotes a really LONG post only to add a short answer/joke/offtopic question or a smiley and an encouragement.

Similar to the one I linked-to, with a series of links to useful guides etc - except I'd probably go a step further and include a short description of what each thread contained.
There'd be one in this section and one in the Dev section.

I agree.
And that's where I'd need your help - whilst I own a Defy my primary handset now is my Galaxy Nexus, so I'm just not as clued up on things here as the rest of you.
So whilst I'd do my best to keep it updated, if there was a thread you felt was missing from the roll-up, then you'd be best to PM me and I could add it.

Unfortunately, there's no way to force people to pay attention/follow the rules/behave like vaguely-competent individuals.
So all we can do is react to people who have posted in the wrong section.

No, unfortunately the forum software doesn't allow for that.
I guess an alternative would be to have the 'roll-up' lists in the Defy Wiki where anyone can edit them and I would just have a link to them from the one sticky in each section.

*NOOB FORUM FOR SGS3*
Xda community,
I decided to start this thread to help some newcomers along. When I was a NOOB, I had a lot of questions. I couldn't find the appropriate place to ask the questions, I didn't know how to use the forum tools, I didn't know which questions were good questions, I was worried about getting bashed by some senior members, and I became discouraged. Feel free to ask any questions in here. You will not get flamed for asking any legitimate question. I won't hold your hand.. If you have a question that is all over the Internet, I'll point you in the right direction and tell you how I found that information.
YOU KNOW YOU'RE A NOOB IF..
- You are new to rooting
- You are new to flashing roms
- New to adb, fast boot, drivers, bootloaders
- You don't understand the terminology
- You don't know the difference between a rom and a kernel
- You don't know how to use XDA forums
- You can't explain what rooting is and what it does
- Many more..you get the point

Looks like he wasn't uploading his kernal sources even after being asked/warned by the mods and therefore was not complying with GPL. Too bad he was one of our best devs. Wish there was some way to learn how to dev for vivow, I can't get anything to build grr
You mean his kernel source which is here? https://github.com/aeroevan Only a couple of other ROMs list any sort of source or GPL compliance info so I guess we can expect them all to be closed soon.

There is an explanation from the mods... The very last post in the thread... "Failure to comply with GPL requirements" .... There has to be a link to kernel source in the op. Quite honestly though, the mods don't have to explain themselves or justify their actions to anyone. They are here to enforce the rules, not explain them over and over when these rules are posted everywhere you turn.

So, what I understand now is that he closes threads in Development section in the name of "GPL Compliance" which I agree too...but why are those threads being closed (by Papa Smurf151 particularly) which asks why are most of the threads being closed.??

So, what I understand now is that he closes threads in Development section in the name of "GPL Compliance" which I agree too...but why are those threads being closed (by Papa Smurf151 particularly) which asks why are most of the threads being closed.?? I mean are they closed for the DMWM (Don't Mess With the Moderators) compliance!!!!!
& shouldn't you check your Inbox before closing someone's thread....or atleast reply to him about what shall be done!!!

They didn't come from nowhere. I would say its possible he didn't receive your pm? I know things like that have happened before and when I was pm'd I fixed my op that I missed things in and pm'd him back and he responded right away.

^^just a couple references where they came from.
If you want your thread re-opened, simply put a link to the source your kernel uses (aeroevans git if you're using his kernel, for example) .. then pm the mod stating your thread is updated, include a link to your thread in your pm so he can easily verify it and the thread will be unlocked.
Well I would say at this point the Dinc2 is officially dead. Most devs won't want to take the time to bother with the mods and neither would I.

Cmon man, aren't you reading what CS has said? Just a link to source. If they include it to start with it would not be an issue. And if they forgot, it isn't so big a deal when you consider the work that goes into making a ROM work. If they are willing to spend hours of work and time reading and responding and fixing bugs, do you really think a few minutes to update their op and pm a moderator is such a big task?

If the Dinc2 is not their DD and they were just doing it out of the kindness of their hearts (supporting a 2 year old device) then yes I could see that as being too much of a hassle.
Most of those threads were open for months without any trouble then all of the sudden the mods decided to crack down on an old obscure device because of GPL.
Also I believe GPL just requires source to be available and anyone smart enough to root and flash their device can find Aeroevan's source code.

If they were taking the time to still support the rom then I don't think it would be much trouble. They all do it out of the kindness or their heart as you put it. They don't get paid. They just enjoy it. If its an issue fine. But if they still enjoy deving this phone this won't stop them. CS is a developer as well as chilly, and they both did what needed to be done.

So we should just say **** it and stop doing anything? And yes, we are supposed to post a link to source. It takes a whole 5 seconds to do so... Damn, I should stop wasting my time since no one else would want to be bothered with 5 seconds and would just say **** it.... I could have another drink instead.

From what I've been told we they are really close, but again they aren't going to put anything out that doesn't work fully so as for a real time frame, when everything works and they feel it's ready for mainstream consumption
Why don't you look in the dev forums. That's where it'll be posted

It's nice to know that you guys are hear to help. I posted this in the Q&A you know since it is a question. It seems that you have forgotten you were once new at this as well.
Ill try not to ask as many questions. Once again I'm sorry.
[READ] Stop asking about JB ROMs and anything related to JB updates..

questions aren't the problem we love to help and inform on anything we know. but asking for an eta when there are already tons of discussions on this and when there have already been multiple posts saying don't bug the devs, thats a problem

I'm not bugging the devs...I was asking the community in general? Its just I came from the Nexus S which had well over 100 roms to the Optimus which only has 2. So I have just been confused why there aren't a few more for this device which is much better than my nexus. Im not even asking for ETA's mainly just if anyone knew about more roms being made. I probably should have worded it more clearly.

jbrooks58. We don't mean to be harsh. You came from a nexus, a device that have open source to a device that is branded by LG running LG software. It takes time to develop for getting around minor hurtles may take weeks unlike on a nexus our dev community works hard and we now have a flashable JB zip. Things are in the works but there are a few things that still need fixed.

Thank you for explaining! I didn't realize one was more open than another. I thought all Androids were open. I still have much to learn. Thanks for clarification.

Hey man those listen to these morons it's not their fault that this is the only place in the world they're relevant.. Ask ur questions there will always be ppl that add to the problem and the clutter when one simple answer will finish the thread instead of being rude and keeping the thread at the top of the page by flooding it with off topic responses
Haha...

I see both sides of this coin, since i kinda just went through the same thing. I understand that he was just asking a question, but on the other hand there are probably over 10 discussions with the answer he is looking for.
But on the other hand, you are newer than me even, so welcome to the community, try to read and search before asking questions, and try not to double post either, just edit your last post if no one has replied.

The name calling is uncalled for, especially when you're taking advantage of the work that these people are putting in. This community has enough negativity as it is, and we certainly don't need any more.
Egos aside we're all on the same team here. Either appreciate the work or give constructive advice/suggestions. Enough of the insulting.

Also, alot of the reason we only have 2 roms was because we were stuck on ICS. Not many people want to develop on an older OS, expecially when we knew there was an update right around the corner. So it was the waiting game. Now that JB has been released, and the source code has been dropped, this place will start lighting up. This is one of the best phones out right now, and it will start getting attention. So for now, research, read, contribute what you can, and enjoy the ride.
In all honesty none of those thread touch on how close we are to being AOSP, so his question is relevant. In every thread you get the same answer, either "we have already answered that question", "when it is fully ready to go", "were still testing things so it's going to be a few more weeks". I want to make it clear that I'm not complaining, And am very happy with what you guys are doing, but if we had a little better information about what is going on and what the problems are maybe people would stop posting so much.
If you want to know anything about ROM's/AOSP, go to the IRC. They constantly are talking about it on there.
