Sometimes people may accidently thank a post. Especially when using tapatalk or other app.
I think we should be able to remove thanks, like on other forums.
This may seem negative, but hey!

Think about the "thanks" button as a kiss. You can´t un-kiss somebody, even if you regret having done it. - h/t cabessius

I think this might be a lie
It is in the Thanks hack - you can enable it to allow people to remove thanks
I should have said, "won't be done"...an accidental Thanks is no big deal.
Does anyone know what happened to Cataclysm? Just saw the moderator message that thread was closed.

That was me trying to be speedy; if you look closely, the number that follows the "?p" is the same on both links. I tried to link a different post but forgot that you need the post ID to be modified, not the post count. Fixed in my post above. Oops!

Can you clarify what happened?
The posts linked above talk about there isn't a need for android dev. vs original android dev., which I understand... but what is the status of Catalclysm? Is it not being worked on anymore?

Alas, Cataclysm has "died" before in the days of the Galaxy Nexus and Nexus 4. Atl4ntis disappeared for a year or more then and reappeared magically for the N5 and gained a large number of users. However, if he can't hack the stress, it was hardly fair to build up an even larger keen collection of users on FOUR different devices. I'm bitterly disappointed, but sadly not surprised. At least he gave his reasons on Pushbullet.
This is a sad day...... for me and the rest of Cataclysm users.

Thanks for that link. But after reading most of the discussion, I think I need a drink (it must be 5:00 somewhere). It turned into a toxic lovefest/hatefest pretty quickly.

Thanks. I think I see his point about fairness, but man, does he have to be so nasty about it? Seems like he didn't really need to insult anyone, except maybe the XDA mods that he felt were unfair to him. But perhaps he feels it's a race thing (who knows, perhaps it is).
Anyway, it's too bad they couldn't solve the problems without going ballistic. Hope it turns out to do something positive.
This is all just sad...

Yes, and there is a fact. His method 'cata-mod' is and was very original. So I am confused too, and do not understand the moderators concerned. Especially because a thread with discussions about the 'why' is also closed.
This is not a simple 'not following the rules question'. Apparently we are dispirited to talk further.
I'm very sorry for Atl4ntis and Cataclysm.
He's been a very kind guy, always keen to answer help and fix bugs,
His ROM has been the best I've ever seen so far: a lot a customization, great features, great stability. A great balance.
I hope he will eventually be back, but he will be always remembered as one of the best guys and modder here!

So I have stumbled upon a problem with rooting/unlocking the boot loader for the Verizon variant of the mot z play. I've seen posts and other tutorials asking for a solution. But I see a similar reply to those questions: that it isn't going to happen due to the lack of dev support. So I am creating this thread to ask the developers what we (the ones who want root for moto z play Verizon) can do to get their full attention on, not just the moto z play, but all Verizon variants. So Devs What do you want? and Owners, What can you give?

Maybe but one can try to find one. And with luck catch it.
From what I understand, Verizon bootloaders are not unlockable. They have only seen to gotten more strict with this over time. I would recommend getting a non-verizon or att variant of every phone in the future.
"Not Unlock-able" is not in the vocabulary of the hacking world. I know someone some where can crack the boot-loader its only a matter of time and effort. Anything can be cracked.

In a theoretical sense that's likely true. But it may require more time, money and resources than are available to the Devs on XDA. I think the point is, if you buy a locked Verizon or AT&T device, don't count on an unlock ever being available, especially if you aren't paying the salary of the guy working on it.

Hey everyone.
I'm new to rooting. Haven't touched this site in several years. I was wondering what type (snapdragon/Exynos) the Rogers Canada S9+ is, and what would be the steps, or link, to root it? Thanks
Rogers s9+ has a snapdragon soc. If you want to root it sell it and buy the international s9+ with an exynos soc.
So you're essentially saying this can't be rooted?

Non of the Snapdragon S9s can be apart from two Chinese models (And if memory serves maybe one other, I forget now)
Oh my ...
I had no idea. This really sucks. I read wanted viper4android or the newer dolby atmos.
Do you or anyone happen to know a way to get that to work without root, or any other DSP?

In other words, it has nothing to do with reading and comprehending something I never came across. Too bad you couldn't think that through, unfortunately.
But it's okay, whatever floats tour boat. Imagine that of all the issues in the world, you decide to show your irritability in such an insignificant post on XDA. Talk about triggered.

Hi,
I'm new. I've been watching rooting videos for hours by now. I'm wondering if it's really worth it to root a google pixel 2 xl since I love to use Tasker.
Thanks you guys in advance,

We've all had questions. Some of us actually search for our answers, instead of taking the lazy route and ask a question that has been answered a thousand times by now.
@siggey's comment was pretty much spot on. Most people who frequent this site shouldn't root, since they almost always have no reason to do so. It's why in this situation I'll ask if the person knows what root is and then ask why they need it.
His comment to you is unhelpful and useless because it doesn't simply give the answer on a site where the first rule is to search before you post. The OP needs to read, I agree. But the site has a search function for a reason, and perhaps if more people bothered with it you'd see fewer posts like siggey's or mine.

so you need root? to have an insurmountable sound with viper? not see a ****ing ad? and that the phone is really yours? do not do it .......
I wouldn't be able to own a phone without root. I use Tasker, as well as a lot of other apps that require root.
The only reason i had before to root was ads block with adaway, but since i discovered Blokada, i no longer root.
Today, I won't root my daily driver. Too much hassle. My tablet I root just for ad blocker on Twitch.
I miss the day of customising - for instance my Galaxy S4, getting rid of touchwiz and putting the Google Play edition roms on there was amazing.
I think this might be me personally though - back in those days I didn't have responsibility, I had a lot of time to dedicate to messing about back then.
The number one reason why I root is for Cf lumen. Which still works on Android Pie

I really like it. I rarely have any issues with it. But I use phones as toys. I don't have a purpose other then funzies with them. So most people prolly wouldn't use it as a daily.
Other than the phone app freaking out here and there, and the pocket detection seeming to not always work, its been super stable.
