I have been over on the nexus 4 & 7 forums lately, not saying much, many already have beat me to the punch and I miss the days when I was able to help more with the devs of the Cappy glide.
This phone was so much like it's predecessor, the one difference, we had a small community compared to nexus and the sgs Cappy..
So are there any devs going on that could use some beta testing? Known issues would be a bonus, but as always, not as much fun to know about.
I want to put back cyanogenmod 4.2.x because everything I had worked except the Bluetooth which was needed for my stereo Bluetooth creative labs headset but, my nexus can be used for that..
So please shoot me a pm or a friend request. Thanks.

Check the brainstorming thread, in general cm10.1 bugs thread, kickass kernel and pacrom thread.
That'll get you caught up.
Main issues right now is bluetooth and audio w/ skype.. .brianstorming thread will help you understand.
Spyke, bubor and lorddavid I think are the most current "dev's".
Development is for developers to post work only

Devs, n00bs, seniors, everyone. Please calm down.
N00bs..read before you post. This is a big cause to recent drama. I read a thread today and the same question was asked and answered on like3 straight pages... this is not called for.
Devs please consider the level of readiness before posting a Rom. My fav developer makes his Rom as close to bug free by having about 10 guys test the Rom before he releases it. Doing this would cut back on n00b questions and stupid posts. I love all you work this is just an idea.
Everyone else please don't fight and make things worse. Help the n00bs with links to forum rules and such.
I make all these mistakes too. But we need to fix it. We are losing our community.

I'll add to this a bit if you don't mind. Any noobs feel free to pm me whatever the question may be and I will try to help. There is no sense starting a new thread because 99%of the time the question has been answered and i honestly I like to help. I don't have time to develop so this is my attempt to give back to a community I got a lot out of. I may not have your answer but will most likely be able to send you in the right direction and knipp is extremely helpful and knowledgeable as well. I personally don't care but don't post a thread like help plz I bricked my phone in the dev section unless you have a pair of flame retardant pants. Look bottom line is I'm here to help if anyone needs it

I don't know how many times I posted the gingerbread ruu for people recently. If you don't have the time I can do it or certainly help at the very least. Just wanted to get your opinion on this matter

This. It's extremely refreshing when a dev spends good time creating a ROM for a phone. It's nice to be handed a ROM that has been tested and is essentially bug free. I praise the guys that do that, and the guys that stick to their work. Doing it for fun rather than for money.
Of course I'm not expecting a good ROM to fall into our laps, I do like to follow projects from start to finish just as long as the dev(s) are working solely on that project - Like Cyanogen.
I agree about posting ROMs that are fully tested.. but then only 10 or so get to enjoy the ROM until it's stable. It's nice having everyone give feedback because 100 testers is better than 10. But I 100% agree with you, we need to get this community back on track, and we as users can help indefinitely.
We need to remember, not too long ago we we n00bs. I didn't even know what an .apk was. Now I know how to edit and decompile .apks.
Let's help to make this a fun and sharing community again.

Welcome to xda ...its a great resource for android but there are a few things you need to be aware of...if you ask a question in the development forums that's already been asked or answered...be prepared to get reamed by someone...as such learn to use the search function effectively...always read through the op and thread posts thoroughly...also be sure to post in the correct sections.. lastly get to know adb before you mess with your phone...other than that the community is pretty chill...just that at times it can be overwhelming to new comers...as long as you do your research though and follow the rules put forth by the mods and rom devs you should be fine.

I know the frustration of seeing someone complain about something know to be issues or someone thinking it's a problem with the rom when no one else has issues. Just remember we where all noobs at one time or another and remember that one person that helped you out with something vs the person that flamed you for not knowing.

I was that at one point also, when the G1 came out and JesusFreke was making roms, and people had to use ADB to obtain root and be able to flash things. I learned since then and read and read and read. The problem now a days is that most don't care to read a little, or at all. Most of the questions asked in a thread are answered, or been discussed, or don't even belong in the dev section. This is extremely aggravating to the devs, or themers, when they right up a huge OP and no one uses it, and just clutters up their dev thread with useless questions and/or nonconstructive criticism. I don't blame him for quitting or locking the thread, if people feel it's at its prime, then leave it alone and don't touch it anymore. Most of the TouchWiz roms have the best version yet to come, or they came and went a while ago. Most of the mods they incorporated are flashable on your own, anyways. Thank him and respect decisions, or use one of the other 10+ TouchWiz roms.

Jesusfreke was the pioneer of modding for Android. Without him I believe that we would not be as far with android as devs, manufacturers, or even android its self.
Look at thouchwiz its self with the toggles in the notification Window. This came from cm. We the community can end up pushing for devs with true innovation to go back underground where their work is not seen in mass people, Google, or manufacturers. Then android may end up missing what could become greatness all for petty arguments. I follow one such dev in a private forum and it's a shame he was forced to by thing like this.

Thanks you for being civil about it, but the time for this thread has expired.

Hi folks, I have a flamming subject today. I am the onlyone would would cut a finger to have a dualboot kernel like on the Internationnal version? I mean why are we the only device to not have this ? Rarz got one, S3 4 core got one, HTC one too and now they are planning the S4. I hate juggling between backups.
If it is money it need i'm ready to give some via paypal, and I dont think I'll be the only one that will support that developpment. Imagine switching with one click from AOSP latest CM to a touchwiz based ROM.
I dont want to be burried because of this post but seriously this would be awesome.

I'd love to have dual boot on my s3.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
I didn't even realize that this was the t999 was the only version that didn't have a dualboot kernel
I remember I wanted this ability super bad about a year ago but figured the devs would eventually get around to it. So disappointed that this just never happened as I'm constantly forced to choose an OK ROM over a great ROM due to 1 or 2 important (though often rarely used) features. If I could dualboot I would benefit from using a great ROM (AOSP based) as my daily driver and switch, only when necessary, to take advantage of modified/stock benefits like better driver support for video recording. A "feature" I only really need when on vacation or at an event.
I'm not sure how dualbooting works exactly. Is this a kernel feature, as everyone seems to be suggesting, and wouldn't that force us to use 1 and only 1 kernel for all our ROMs?
I'd like to start a Bounty/Pledge. I hope this is the best place to post this since it is development related. I'd like to attract the best minds in fixing this issue. As you probably know, the GNex is plagued with graphical issues making KitKat not work very good to say the least. Most things work but random reboots and blacked out screens apps like Google Now make it very difficult to ignore. Google's low system requirement (512mbps ram) for KitKat means our phone should be able to handle this update...technically
I pledge to donate $20 for a fix and hope others follow suit. I will track the pledges and will set up the PayPal link on the OP if/when we have a person or team that fixes this issue. I've participated on other similar threads with good success rate in the past and think we have enough users to do again.
If 50 people pledge $20 , we'll have $1000 to donate to the dev(s).
Pledge what you want, no amount is to small.

If its unnecessary that's awesome, but whoever is responsible for the fix would certainly get a donation from me.
Ive briefly searched for info on who is working on this and haven't found a thread. Is there a place to go for progress updates?
I'm sure the KK threads would give it away, but I don't want to miss anything. I love 4.4 on toro, even with the current issues.
