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 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 just called them, and yes when you ask for tech support, it does tell you about an update, I spoke to someone about it, its the T999UVLH2 update. Its still being rolled out to people. Not 4.1.
U are right sir just heard it for myself but it does not say 4.1 they are probably talking about UVALH2 still bring pushed out
I called, and the recording points you to www.t-mobile.com/support.
From there you can see the SGS3 link, which has a big green "software update available" button. Click that, and it clearly spells out that the update is for 4.0.4, T999UVLH2.

Saw this on the main forum board of devices. Thought it would be cool to have on our devices as we seem to be picking up steam. I haven't the slightest clue to build anything so just wondering if there are any developers willing to take on a project like this. I'll post a video from YouTube for the OS Demo.

You asked what android version does it work for, hence I said it's not android. There is no mention of it running a similar structure to android like firefoxOS, so if the hardware supports it, the android version won't matter at all.
The video says it might be premiered on Nokia first.
Looks like they opened a forum for this on XDA. Jolla Sailfish
To be totally honest with all,some will agree with and some wont,but i dont care how many ways you twist and turn it,ICS,JB and Sense is all the same,stacked side by side(i do mean the UI),all these new roms look the same but have different tweaks or a new theme,im guilty of it also,it continues to look all the same,thats why im gonna do some serious researching into this Sailfish OS and try to drop it on the EVO world,i think its time for a change,for us that have fallin behind.
It hasn't been released yet. There is actually a thread for it on XDA.

Fairphone is my favourite idea of this new "wave" of smartphones and OSes coming out. I only have one android phone, and it is my first, so not really an experienced used in this area, but I can really imagine a Fairphone running Firefox OS It should be named the "respectable combo" x)
Definitely a cool idea. I'm thinking about getting the next nexus though ( if it gas att LTE) that or a Samsung just because they are so popular (more devs).

Fairphone - The Technical Details And Links
Hi folks, I see you're interested in the Fairphone as well. I started a thread with technical details, linked in benchmark/product videos and hope to get support from Fairphone as I started several requests.
Just take a look: Fairphone - The Technical Details And Links
Thanks.
Long story short, got a few connects at T-Mobile (used to work for them) and was able to have a buddy of mine snag me a test model note III for free! - To use and play with for about a week. All I can say is.... Save your pennies, and it is everything and more than I expected from Samsung. Just wow. The screen is that flexible material that doesn't break or whatever, and looks absolutely stunning. Very sleek little device even though it is bigger in screen size than its predecessor.
I'm gonna work on rooting it while I have it, so by the time the device drops root will be available immediately and we'll already have a system image to play around with. I am buying one of these, for sure.
The model I have is running 4.2.2 which is what it is launching with, but he is sure Samsung is already working on a 4.3 update for it, which will be available shortly after launch.
Best looking mobile device I have ever held, hands down.

Until I see it Im going to have to say BS.
I promised I would not leak any vital info about the device... The only thing I can really tell you about is the screen because that info was already confirmed on the web as was the OS version.
It is benchmarking around 15k in quadrant though. Very fast device, LTE, runs 60 fps in every single 3D benchmark app I can find. Impressive on every level. I feel like these things are gonna be flying off the shelves and I will need to pre-order one for sure lol.
Once I root it I will take a look at the CPU info but I can say this, it is not running a snap dragon 600... No way. Too fast for it to be using that processor.
***EDIT**** I can confirm this right here...
http://www.gottabemobile.com/2013/07/30/samsung-galaxy-note-3-features-continue-to-take-shape/
Just ran cat /proc/cpuinfo from terminal and it has a Qualcomm 800 CPU packed in it. Don't need root for this command. And that also confirmed why it had 4.2 and not 4.3 lol.
Pretty sick device. I'm tempted to post some pictures lmao... But I promised I wouldn't, so I can't. Sorry Steve
