Gone for a little while... - MDA, XDA, 1010 General

I'm going to be gone for a few days, and probably will check back in on monday or tuesday. If you are above-average on clue, please answer as many of the newbie questions as you can. Be nice to one-another, and don't do anything I wouldn't do.

hmm. so we can't get drunk over the weekend?

Official Ap 4.0 Pre-release Thread

I have started this thread out of frustration regarding all the irrelevant BS being posted in the AP 4.0 coming but needs... and official AP 4.0 release threads.
It seems the team's request to not post in the official release thread is not being heeded so hopefully all the irrelevant and off-topic "I hope it is being released soon" and "Where is it?" type activity will end up here instead.
And when the ROM is released, hopefully the mods will flush this all down the toilet.
In other words, POST ALL THE STUPID BS HERE AND NOT IN THE OTHER THREADS!
I am now putting on my fireproof underwear and waiting for the flame wars...
Thank you.
They'll probably still continue to post in the other 1 million threads anyway, including the one that clearly states DO NOT POST. Sigh.....Anyway, what are some of your expectations in the new ROM?
Hello tootallk, let me ask a question ....
Do you have children ?
Then you know the best way if you want children something to do. Tell them "DON'T DO THAT" or "DON'T REPLY HERE"....
Anyway - live is serious enough, let's have some fun.
Regards
Dieter
Me first

How about remotecontroltoyfreak? I like it!
I just got fed up and had to vent. I honestly don't see how the team puts up with most of us...
EDIT: Hopefully the ROM will get relased soon and make this thread short-lived.
good thread idea mate. those people posting kinda ****ed me of because why cant they understand "DONT POST IN THIS THREAD". plus, theres people commenting on grammar, and im like wtf? at least if a junior posts there saying will this work on x7501 [a valid, but easily searchable question] and people reply with actually you should have worded your question like this... its a waste of time

My turn! my turn!

WOW 17 and owning a X7500! Are you some internet wizzkid?
Has anyone noticed the "...coming but needs..." thread has more replies than the 3.0 release thread (and that ROM has been out for months)?
lol.. nope i just have to do something with my time... i think it all started [my ppc obsession] when i was on mobile360.co.uk, looking at coming soon phones, and saw the athena.. i was like wtf, thats huge... then I did some research and picked up a SPV M3100 for about a hundred and fifty quid. Then 6 months later, being dropped loads and loads hadnt done it any good, and after trying to fix it, I sold it. Then I knew the device I wanted, having drawn the athenas outline on some paper, and putting my tytn inside the outline, it really wasnt that much bigger. So I got an ameo with a blocked imei from a guy on here, But circumstances were against me, and 3 weeks later I had to downgrade because of money probs. [the thing was, I sold it, and it didnt arrive in italy, so i ended up nearly 400 quid out of pocket, when it could have been like 130 in pocket, with an ameo] I picked up a touch enhanced, but no keyboard was really a drag. plus gprs and 210mhz made it really slow... so once my debt [thats why i wold mt ameo in the first palce] had been paid off, I got my second ameo... and its as good as the first time
So, am I some kinda of internet whizzkid, nah, im just an engineer, and need something to play with 24/7
By the way, ppc's are the reason I went from 3 A's and a D in my first as modules to like 2A's, 2B's, 2C's and 2D's in my second lot. But my recentest ones werent too bad, 2A's, 2B's and 2 E's, i should probably ban myself from my phone until exams are over on the 19th of june!
lol
[edit] I noticed how the coming soon but needs thread is longer than the pk3 one.. how funny[/edit]

I think it's time you take your own advice. When your phone is beginnen to affect your grades. That's BAD.
You ADDICT!
Get clean, NOW!
im going to get a hammer, and smash my athena with it
[suddenly has second thoughts, and starts to strangle himself for thinking something so stupid]
plus, I now actually do work, whereas last year, i just went on the net on my tytn...
lol
and I have to educate my mate whose a touch owner on the greatness of flashing, hes had it 10 months, and not flashed once
so that kinda waste my time too...
Rory

I hate to be that guy..

but anyone have status on rooting the v3 leak or the others?
Your being that guy....
Feel sure it would be top thread if there was any info. Not trying to be an a$$ just keeping the forum clean.

well yeah but sometimes i feel like devs might be holding out on us (no offense to anyone). and maybe they have figured out how too but its unstable or something

maybe its because of ppl like you they are holding out. do you think yuo asking in yet another thread if its been done its going to make a dev that might be holding out so oh ya, here you go, now i will give it to you?
as stated a zillion times, they will release it when they release it. they enjoy doing this stuff and love to show their work off, so when its done, it will be posted and as stated above, be first post in forum as everyone will be hitting it up
lol kevlar very well said. im sure there are tons of ppl waiting and to post numerous threads asking isnt going to make it available any faster..it will be done when its done. glad i waited for root and didnt jump the gun on leak
Its funny if you think about it. They couldn't wait for root and used the leak, now they are being impatient about root on the leak. How can anybody win with these people?

Well, not everyone who upgraded realized it was a leak and not root, thus, being very interested in finding an exploit. When a popular site that is all about unlocking phones has a tutorial that has you install the leak first then you become SOL. That being said, there are already threads just like this on the next page making this quite redundant.

To quash some of the preconcived notions that the Devs screwed you all into putting Leak on and waiting it out..There are at least 4 I know of and I was a tester for one of them and we all have leak. I went another route and you all had the same opportunity to do the same so winning and moaning about the leak root won't Make it happen faster.
JCase, Jamezelle, Framework(I think), Me, Captainkirk TheFuzz we all had leak v1 on our phones first to test if it was ok. Mistakes are made and that is how you find out how it works.
Some one close this thread. It is poison to the Forum.
....but you went there anyhow?
Self loathing ftw?
The devs aren't withholding anything. You are free to come to the irc in channel #root to see what is being worked on.
The reason you don't see a whole lot posted on the forums about it is because the methods we are working with are not simple and there isn't much to say about it. Us posting things will just get more and more people asking about it, which detracts from the actual dev's time that are working on it.
In other words, when root is found, you'll know. PERIOD.
You messed up by installing leak, suck it up and fork out the $90 for a replacement. Not a big deal and you end up looking like an butthead (like me) by asking over and over if its rooted yet. Don't you think the forum would be flipping it's poop if leakers got root? There would be 30 threads about it and they would all probably be on the home page. Keep your pants on and your mouth closed or buy a new phone.

Yeah yeah yeah, I've read that line a million times. I may word things a little inappropriately but I do think that I say things a couple people would like to. You can't honestly disagree with what I'm saying about if it was rooted then you would know.

Mod close this thread
in b4 404!
Sorry, had to be said.
I have an idea... go back in time and never install the leak... root the phone instead and wait to install jcase's plain jain OTA rom.... hmm, now thats an idea.
You want OTA or root, you shouldn't have installed the leak... you jumped the gun... no ones fault but your own. BTW the devs aren't holding anything back.. well maybe they are, but you may never know! You have been dismissed, Good day sir!
That's enough guys... play nice.

[Q] Why I need 10 posts to reply, but many posts there from peoples with just 1 or 2?

This is very strange. I tried to post reply on the ICS Passion ROM thread, but then I been redirected to a page saying I need more than 10 posts before I can post there. However, there are many replies on that same thread, by peoples with just 1 or 2 post count.
Is there something I did wrong?

You need 10 posts to do it in the dev section. You should be able to reply in the general or other sections. Why they can I am not sure. Are they doing it with a computer or by phone maybe?
Thanks. I don't mind I need 10 to post if that's the rule. I just wondering why some peoples, like me, has to follow that rule, but some don't required.
It could be the date they join. Some have been here forever with little to no posts.

I believe that the cutoff is around 2009 or older. Grandfather clause. Remember when there wasn't a "thanks" button?
Oh I see..... so this 10 post rule is something new (relatively). Thanks for the explanation.
Now I just have to work hard for my 10 posts.
I always wondered the same exact thing... I noticed some dude two days ago posting in the development and had 3 posts... I think under our profile there's a referral option so maybe they got referred my an existing member. That's my guess
Took me a year to get 10 post!
posts
10 posts is a pain, but I understand they don't want everyone mucking up the Dev threads. Sometimes they are hard enough to keep up with what is going on in them.

if its something youre really going to consider, you have to invest in a good one. the initial investment in a starterkit will run you between $60-$90, but you ultimately save a ****ton of money AND health from there on out.
those crap ecigs from the convience store/mall kiosk are a horrible misrepresentation of the vaping world, dont buy those.
i can give you good recommendations if youre interested.

it is a huge online industry, with a alot of great products >> but unfortunately those great products are buried under a tone of inferior products...it can be like finding a needle in a haystack.
a lot of people start researching, and just get so overwhelmed that they just say "fck it, ill just go buy a pack of smokes."
ill PM you the site where i started.
I suppose my problem is never shutting up.
I'm a lurker and have been for over a year. I understand the need to have people make productive posts, but I don't want to. BLAH POOP!
Sounds good to me. I've been a lurker for a long time, but work schedule has finally slowed down to less than 50-60 hrs/wk so I might actually be able to contribute some good thoughts.

[Q] Walmart Order--Awaiting Inventory?

i checked today and it still says "Awaiting Inventory". How much time should we give them before we cancel the order and just buy from Verizon? i know we are all trying to save money but i want me phone now! :crying: What should we do?
They might not update it right away. I'm hoping mine ships today...
There is already a thread for this.
But no, no changes as of yet. For me, I'll give it a week. $100 is worth that long for me. But if it goes more than that, I'll probably just break down and cry.
Honestly, I haven't seen that many people post here or on the Verizon forums that they ordered from big W. I wonder how many did.

I want to help Someone

I have not been here lately since I bought a Note 4 and gave my Note 3 to a family member.
Before I gave it away I ordered an extra battery and a cradle charger. They have arrived and have been sitting there.
If you need them, they are yours.
I have given things away before and I do not ask for anything in return. I do not do it for "thanks" or popularity.
Fact is God has blessed my family this week and laid it on my heart to do this again.
Anyway, the battery is OEM and the cradle is 3rd party. I have never used them.
The only thing I ask is you pay it forward one day.
PM me or reply here. Please don't take advantage it you really don't need or plan on selling.
Edit: l can not promise super fast delivery because I am not allowed to drive due to seizures so it depends on schedules and getting a ride
I will take them off your hands if no one else has PM'd you before me. Thanks!

PM me where you want them sent, use po box if you think I'm gonna pull something on ya, and i will try and get them out this week. I will notify you when I ship them.
Please let me know when you receive them and that they are working well.
Any questions or whatever pm me and I will answer.
Thank you to those who sent messages. Meant a lot.
ok,think you.
