Donations is completed and supercurio has successfully received the phone and he is currently working on the kernel drivers for the fixes so stay tuned and make sure to fallow his twitter account for more updates. Thanks to everyone that donated and supported the thread. I'm pretty sure supercurio is also thankfull to you guys.
Use this thread to discuss about the fix and also to chit chat about anything related the screen problems on our SGH-T989.
i think you missed the point
Supercurio said Samsung should send him one, not us
he didn't ask us to pitch in for a device
he asked us to contact Samsung and have Samsung send him a device.

Note: I received a donation but when I tell "I don't have a device" the goal is not really to ask you to pay for it − especially since I have no idea if I'll get results eventually.
I firmly believe it's manufacturer's role to fix it. And the manufacturer here is Sam.. err no; it doesn't really works like that in the US. Manufacturer is T-Mobile.

I didn't not know about this sorry. I guess there is nothing wrong with the community to pitch in for a device....Samsung might not send him one. This is a heck of great community so I'm pretty sure we can all get him the device faster than Samsung.

there fixed your tittle
How do we go about asking Samsung to do this? I can't just say "hey give supercurio a T989" they wouldn't even know who I'm talking about.
Someone wants to organize this?
i vote for Surfacet to lead this, since he started this topic
The thing is I never done a thread like this before. This is my first thread ever on xda. This thread got sticked? I thought it got removed or something lol.
Lets see supercurio's response. I cant send him a message since he got it disabled

Contacting Samsung was kinda your idea...My idea was to make it a bounty and donate to him for the cause
Social media is a great medium.
Spam Samsung John and Carla anyone? Let's do it.
I'd be willing to donate. Just look how fast the other devs got their bounties, I bet we could get him one in two weeks or less.

Quick note: Galaxy S II audio hardware is not Voodoo Sound capable.
I work only on Super AMOLED plus, awaiting better quality audio chip in the future generations of devices (Voodoo Sound is still in development for supported devices)
Allgamer: if people want to raise funds to send me a device why not. It will always be soon enough to cancel the process if Tmo/Samsung does, and will also demonstrate users determination.
Feel free to contact Samsung reps but please avoid spamming them, it would be severely counter-productive.
As long as you are okay with that, then by all means lets turn this topic into an official [BOUNTY] for Mr. curio
WHERE DO WE DONATE?
The link in Sir Curio's signature is for donating to his Voodoo project, do we need another link for T989 screen issue only, for easier financial consolidation?
There should be another donation link but not sure if super has it or not. I'm waiting for him to give us the link to where to donate so I can put it on the OP.

As written in the bounty guidelines, I would suggest counting first and then, later, sending the donations.
Its easier than refunding everyone if its canceled for some reason
As I cannot buy this device in France, it would be pretty nice to choose a trusty well known peer who would receive the donations, buy the phone and post it (shipping costs about $35, something like that) in my direction.
I'm listening.
I own Gigahertz Computers in Warner Robins, GA. IV never done any business in the marketplace here but I have an associate with a tmo sgs2 for $400 that is new (opened and played with but spotless and is in the box with receipt where he paid full retail from a walk-in tmo store 2 weeks ago. I have a PayPal account and would be more than happy to take on the responsibility of taking the donations and getting SC the device. I have an eBay account with 44 recent transactions (mostly phones) that is spotless everybody can checkout. Mountdenizen is the screen name. My business is a Mac / mobile device service and support shop and the eBay transactions have been done because of it. Allgamer, I'm not real sure how this all works but IV seen the thread for awhile now and have seen people talking about starting a pot for the device... just thought we may need to take the bull by the horns here. I in no way feel special or entitled to do this, just willing. I'm listening as well. My email is [email protected] and that's also my PayPal account. I'm on here on and off all day (kind of Android obsessed here) so you can contact me anytime. I do think we need to keep everything public and in the forums to keep all parties involved as transparent as possible. Off to bed, ill check back in the A.M.

You guys won't regret getting this guy the device. He will unleash its power. He is one of respectful developers on xda. Check out his work.
I'd be happy to donate a few dollars. I love super's work on the vibrant. Voodoo and voodoo sound just made it top notch.

Hey fellas,
Today is my 3rd year anniversary on YouTube so I wanted to give back to everyone that's been supporting me throughout my YouTube career. I've put together a couple of prize packs for several devices. Watch the video below for more info, but basically you just leave a comment with your device of choice and subscribe to the channel to be entered. I ship internationally and the giveaway will end on August 2nd or once the video reaches 3,000 views.
Thanks again for all the continued support on the channel - more reviews to come!
Congratz! :victory: Very nice of you to throw a prize pack giveaway, and awesome job with those reivew, keep it up
Great contest.
Nice! Congratulations on 3 years!
Congrats! You should do this more often
Great gesture!
Congrats; great prize packs

Thanks everyone - I get a lot of great support here and I wanted to thank everyone. I wish I had more cases to giveaway!
I do plan on doing it more often, but unfortunately next time probably won't have Galaxy Nexus cases as I've given all of mine away in this giveaway and my previous one. Once I get 20+ cases, I start thinking about the next giveaway, but at the same time I want to have cases from different phones so more people can get involved.
Grats and thank you! You've helped me a lot in deciding what cases to get.
So, who won?
If someone could please move this to the right forum if necessary.
I received some pms in response to some product reviews of mine. They asked if I'd be willing to do a review on their product. Well they sent a package but one of them wasn't even mentioned previously.
A car dock, and a stylus were to be sent but I received a stylus and a screen protector for the m8.
Now I can't reach this user. The mobile profile says banned, yet the desktop site says unable to receive private messages.
Anyway just want advice on what to do. Otherwise I'll just review the one product as promised.
I've honestly never been approached to review any products for free so it's cool no matter what. But I was a bit apprehensive at first.
Thanks in advance for the advice.

Sounds like somebody got banned for trying to use the forum to market their products.
That's crazy. It was done in a professional and non annoying manner.
Well whatever. I'm still going to do the review like I promised.

The Member in question, could of been spamming his product via PM or the Threads, hence his removal. But either way Thread Closed and Thank You.
