Kingxklick?

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?

What the flubber nuggets are you talking about?

He did do one original thing in his old kernels here before he got banned:
He fixed a typo in a comment in some source code. The worst part? I'm not joking.

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.

99% of ROM makers do the exact same thing as him... They are just taking pieces others developed and putting them together. Most of the ROM makers/chefs couldn't code their way out of a box.

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.

Well I've been on xda since I had my first winmo phone which was the tilt.. there is alot of immaturity on these forums and I for one do not want to be the cause of any unneeded drama..
Whichever rom I decide to use I will ask and give credit @ stang u are a beast man I only hope to be as good a dev as you. Thanks for the support hopefully if I can find some f$%kin time I'll release something..

I notice that a couple of my favorite people(devs) from my original Epic read and posted here. I always thank you when I borrow your work on the dev threads but just so you know, I too very much appreciate your efforts and sometimes thick skin

I've owned a lot of devices and there have been some with little to no support...even some with no root. Since the first day I started watching these forums I was impressed with the developers and the work being done. Since buying the phone they only continue to impress me.
I can't say thank you enough for all the hard work.

We have some devs that come from epic4g and there wasn't much of a learning curve for them ... Then we have some devs that came from htc and this phone is really nothing like a htc ....there is a big learning curve there ....
Aosp is totally a different beast also ... The learning curve is alot bigger on ics vs gingerbread... With all the new back smalli junk in the rom... This is one reason ics is alot harder to deal with . It is nothing like the roms to date. Well if people don't respect what the devs do. Install ubuntu in windows , get android kitchen and try to make your own rom .... You will then have much respect for the work they give us ..

That was chris41g (above) and it was pretty slick of him. I think it is beyond pitiful for people to complain about all of the unpaid work that goes on in these and other forums.

Chris is the man. He doesn't even own the phone and yet somehow puts up with a bunch of **** and keeps chugging away making our lives better.

first im sorry this isnt the thread to be putting that in...
second off...
You have a few ways to get proprietary drivers to work with your device
1 from the manufacture (they are in the stock firmwares)
2 From another device of the same board type that has the Firmware you want (eg ics).
3 Samsung releases there driver code for there proprietary drivers (not going to happen)
4 reverse engineer them though machine code disassemble.
your best bet if u want ics before they release ics then use the samsung vendor proprietary drivers for this device...
The rest of the drivers will be compiled from source with values set for this device... (theirs a reason you have source code)..

Ill throw 25.00 in once were about 100 away..

Good job. I would totally donate if I had any money on my PayPal. Sorry :/

You know what, I'm really getting tired of people ****ting up these threads with their troll comments. We all know the lack of development for this phone is largely due to the attitudes of some of the people on the board.
The bottom line is - These developers are putting a lot of time and effort into giving you plenty of options on your phone and you aren't paying a nickel. If you don't want to donate, no one is judging you. But the least you can do is keep your mouth shut and allow the people who would like to see further development and a better atmosphere in this forum and on this phone try to do so.
I've administrated forum before. People that troll like they do here were banned and the forums as a whole were a better place to be. There was a much more positive atmosphere, it was FAR more constructive, and everyone contributed in any way they could. If you couldn't, you kept your nose out of it. This place needs to be regulated a little more diligently. No one wants their opinions stifled, but when you're being an asshole for the sake of being an asshole; you need to be removed from the board.
M&S, and others, thank you for all the hard work you've put into this phone so far. Please realize most people like myself that generally keep their mouth shut truly do appreciate the efforts put forth. Please don't allow the trolls to discourage you or your efforts.
I'll be donating what I can soon. Your previous roms look great, RaverX3X.

This subforum was always full of attitude..
Its never going to change.. even after they get ICS. You're likely to have any respect here if lucky.. lol
The sub forum is full of hatred.

Ive donated to eugene n tdj. I just wanna chime in. That wen raver was blind deving. His rom was solid for not even having the device. But we need devs to contually dev. Tdj has n much props to him. But no disrespect to whitehawkws n team kang n also eugene. But theyll dev one rom then sorta work on other devices. I wud love to see raver here but we need some assurance that he'll ck his threads once in a while and respond to users n update. Im not complaining just have seen us donate to 4 diff devs and to not have continuing help when asked in their threads. Thats my 2 cents.

Food For thought! Rom's Rom's Rom's

Starting Off, I just wanted to thank everyone again for getting me the T989, I love this Phone & I love everyone at xda for it as well!!!
Now, I can't help but laugh because when I first got this device I seen a ton of posts *****ing about the Rom selection...
We now have:
ICS CM9 Alpha
ICS TW
GB TW
GB CM7
MIUI/CM7 GB ( Coming today )
The Dev, has really picked up as of lately on this device & I can't be more happier than I am now
This thread is mostly pointless, but still I wanted to say thanks to everyone again!
Thank you!!!
~Eugene

I must say, y'all need to thank your skyrocket brothers, for without them you would have nothing

Lock for being pointless.
JK! I must say development has picked up and I've seen much less flame fests and useless posts than I used to.
You have been a huge contributor and without your help we wouldn't have half those roms! Thank you!

I gotta say Eugene, I'm pregnant. Don't you dare deny our son his parent! I forgive you.

I'm gonna be mad at you if MIUI ruins my finals week.

Yeah the development is coming along nicely now. All the people who jumped ship for the nexus will be regretting it, very soon. This phone is the best phone I've had hands down, even the stock rom was quite usable. (Which in my experience, is rare.) I also love the fact that everyone is working together now, it's great, everybody wins.

Its nice to see some all these great roms. The hard part is choosing one.
