[REQ] Minimal Elegance

bcparker over at sdx-developers has created a simply amazing samsung moment theme called minimal elegance. Anyone interested in porting it? I tried using some of the autoporting scripts with no luck so far.
I'd post a link but I don't have permission yet... haven't been a member of the forum long enough.

That's one sexy theme. Can't post links either sorry.
I particularly like the dialer.

I can always be persuaded 2 people wanting the same thing use not enuff

Thanks to everyone expressing interest. If any of you could post the link to the sdx board (like I said can't yet) that might help drum up some interest.
Much thanks!

Thanks for the link!

I'm very sorry you had a poor experience. My quick search didn't find the issues you referred to, but I have seen instances of members acting ungrateful in the ROM/customization community, and it upsets me every time. The developers are creating all this and giving it to the users for free. There's no reason for complaints. If I don't like something, I simply don't use it. I still appreciate someone took the time to give me another option. If that wasn't your experience I apologize on behalf of everyone involved. Much thanks for what you did contribute before you were convinced otherwise.

does look pretty

[Must read] broken forum

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

Also knipp what do you think about starting a kind of all in one place thread similar to what's stickied in the dev section only a little more recent and updated with an faq? 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.

Awesome, glad to help with what ever I can

If you guys are still looking for help, I would be interested. Taking a break from school and would like to learn Android and how to dev. Not sure how much help I would be right of the bat. I currently work in software verification for embedded systems on turbines. Most of my coding experience is scripting in LABView, so I don't think that is you helpful here, but as I said, I understand the basics and would love to learn. I will be looking to learn on my own, but I think a team environment would be good as those more experienced could help guide me.

Hey im M&S a Developer/Themer and the face of ADT for the GSII.
Although im not looking to join, me and my team could do a little joint work in the future with you and yours.
You can check out my work in my profile, all my threads are locked but whatever lol
If you need anything let me or my theming partner Evi1Art know...

mods please close

He posted something earlier that he was leaving xda and wouldn't say the reason. But that it's deeper than we think and it has nothing to do with the users. He said to follow him on google+ but I couldn't find his account on his xda page.

may have jumped the gun posting this....believe i had a misunderstanding myself. the threads are back, likely just some cleaning up to do.
that being said, i've never seem tdj post anything that spoke poorly of his character. i've 3 kids & i'm sure i wouldn't have his patience & temperament dealing with what gets directed at him around here. and i'll agree with you on one thing...i would miss his roms if they were no longer available

Support evil1art and petition to have him be recognized as a developer

Never realized xda member, themer, developer evil1art isn't listed as a developer here on xda. I'm always on tapatalk so I never noticed his avatar info.... till now.
How the funk isn't he a recognized developer? Argh!! Rally the troops.
** Petition sent to one Kenny Glass, for a prompt developer recognition of one evil1art**
I've used evil1art's ROMs spanning three devices and I always use his ROMs the most by FAR! I'm a flash-aholic and evil1art has me addicted to his crack. No matter which ROM I try I find myself back on a Wicked ROM.
Evil1art is a developer in my eyes. Let's show him our support and get him officially recognized by XDA. PM your local moderator. It takes 60 seconds. Politely tell them how much you love evil1art's ROMs.
Thanks

MOD EDIT: See Venum's closing post! Also spend 2 seconds and google Recognized Developer XDA application before wasting everyone's time on a petition

Its great to support your xda developers, all he has to do is follow the application process with his development work once they open the app process again. Im sure hes well aware and has without question put the work in to be accepted, but xda doesnt exactly have a petition process. Its up to the developer to follow the proper procedures to have their xda status changed.

How is this even possible??? The man's thread on the s3 has over a million views! A MILLION!!! This device hasn't been out that long and it's clear that his wicked rom is the #1 rom on this phone (based on # of downloads and views in his thread at least, subjective I know). If anybody deserves to be a recognized developer it's evil.
Sent from my SGH-M919 using xda app-developers app

Well to be corrected, he was a recognize themer, not developer (always pertain him as a recognize developer in my head regardless)
So are you petitioning for him to get his old title back or a new title?

As a dev

Thanx bro!
But dont waste your time
Xda removed my RT title for unjust reasons and after I appealed it they still gave no reason! I doubt I will contiue to upload work to a website that doesnt appreciate the 100,000 plus downloads, over 1,000,000 views on 1 rom and all the free work I post here.
My profile shows 1 infraction they are saying 2? Gave no reason for the second one so who knows. I was called every name in the book and all I said was I hope they choke, thats it! I see devs do a hell of alot more vulgar things on here!
So follow me on twitter and fb because my links maybe getting pulled!

I support this movement also- seems absurd that he's not already recognized. In my opinion, he builds the best and most stable roms. PERIOD.

Evil im with you bro. Your roms are the only ones I run.
If XDA cannot see how awesome your work is...then its their loss.
You leave and I will follow. Period.

I support evil as a dev, total awesomness comes from this guy, and thanks to the OP for making this thread, I was considering this myself but I didn't know all the facts, so I didn't want to ask for forgivness later. Sadly, if evil pulls his links, I don't have fb or twitter so I don't have that access. I am subscribed to this thread now to stay current and give all of my support to evil and his work. :good:

When I got my S4 I was a little worried about the available ROM's but evil has put together something really nice and has something for everyone.
He has several things in his ROM's that I had never seen before and they all work as they were intended. I have installed several ROM's over several devices. It would be a very good thing to see evil get RD status, his work is amazing.
thanks

Yeah I've always laughed at that title too. @evil1art runs the galaxy devices. Wicked ROM is always the most used, mist stable, has the most views and has a very active thread. Even better the thread activity is almost never bug related. XDA is weird. A lot of very contributive members have been denied RC status even. Mods are getting crazy here. Its a development site for developers to develop and share. If you are developing, and sharing, who is to say that a person is not a developer. Whatever. Keep me posted Nick if you start posting elsewhere.
