Hey magneticzero- If you aren't going to add anything to the thread don't bother posting.
Nobody really gives a S**T what the hell you think is a worthy topic or not.
What is SBF?
Sent with XDA app
System Boot File??? I've heard a thousand things that it supposedly stands for.
But SBF is a commonly used term for a copy of the factory/stock image that your phone comes with from the factory. If you brick your phone flashing roms, themeing, etc.. You could use the SBF to recover from whatever mistake you made.
Thanks much. I had to use a factory restore file on my Galaxy Tab before it would accept the Froyo update because I had deleted some bloatware. Never heard it called an SBF.
How is any of this new news? You just repeat yourself or what has already been said in other threads.
Magneticzero-
1. You're NOT a forum moderator, stop acting like one!! If the moderators see fit they can modify, delete, move any discussion they deem necessary. Since they haven't done that yet, i'm assuming that my threads/posts are within forum guidelines and therefore above reproach from users that have obvious narcissistic tendencies.
2. Since it's clear that you offer nothing substantial to the discussion, you have been added to my ignore list and can feel free to rant about things all you want.
Thank you

I think you did an excellent job trying to ignore this person! He never contributes and is always negative. Like that one drunk uncle that always yells at everyone else's kids. Lol.
Anyway, I am happy someone is talking about something on the forums! Keep it up!

Yeah, I went ahead and put that guy on ignore right away. I mean, sure, I was aware of all the stuff announced by the OP, but it was nice to see all of these developments in a single place just to start up a conversation.
That zeromagnet or whatever guy just has no class at all. People should put him on ignore and just not bother replying to his posts.
I had liberty on the Droid 2/X and I absolutely loved it. I really hope to see it ported to the X2 soon.
As far as themes go, I really hope to see Juicemane port his Gingercomb Juiced theme over from the Droid 2/X Liberty ROM
As far as what's considered news or not, I have been in the android world for just over a year, and I just started following many of the major developers on Twitter. So I post the new stuff I hear on twitter for those of us that aren't following the most up to date stuff.
I was in an ill mood last night after work. I didn't realize it until after I made the post.
I don't mean to be a jerk, but it seems I came off that way. I don't mean to make others follow my views, I just want some civility and respect for each other.
For those thinking I am here trolling because I don't even have a Rezound... I do have one, got it on the penny sale, I just haven't got around to changing my sig. Got a bit lazy about that.
Apology accepted!
Thanks,
-Scott
I think you were right. People don't have patience.
After going through 5 different 4g devices LG Revo, Tbolt, 3 Bionics before get a working one the Rezound I wasn't mad and was rewarded in the end. So I can wait forever for s-off or custom roms, so people just need to learn patience. Even if this phone doesn't get I'm happy.

I have to agree, After using my own CleanTOOL 2.1.1 I am pretty happy wit the device as is. Of crouse I am dying for the ability to showcase my ROM building skills but... I cna hold tight unitl someone figures it out. I got plenty of other cool devices to play with in the meantime....
Buy, yeah, this phone is SICK!!!!

Its all good and Thank you Sir!
People mistook my other thread, but is isn't their fault as they do not know me personally and my personality. It can be hard to get some things across in type.
The other thread was very tongue in cheek, a sense of false anger to stress my frustrations at the state of affairs.
I was in a bit more foul mood last night though, normally I would not have started a whole new thread.
Hey man, we're all a bit frustrated because we're used to devices that are readily-rooted and can do whatever we wish with them. However, times are changing and technology is becoming more advanced, such as the case with HTC's new bootloader on the Rezound. If we have a few good dev's working on it that haven't cracked it yet, then it's definitely locked up pretty well.
And I understand the frustration you had regarding the whiners. Yes, I need root just as bad as anyone else, but it's the raw potential of this phone ONCE s-off comes that makes me hold on to it and not return it.
Once we get it... we'll make it RAIN up in here!

It's nice to see people taking responsibility for what they put on here. Everyone has an opinion that they are entitled to. Bashing others for not sharing the same opinion is childish. I came from the Thunderbolt and that forum got bad enough I just left. It's good to see most people here are grown ups.
I am excited to see what the awesome devs that are working on this phone are going to cook up for us. If we could all show them appreciation for the unpaid time they spend for our enjoyment, they may want to spend more time looking for that elusive S-Off solution.
They work hard for hardly anything. Some kind words of encouragement and appreciation will go a long way. They will also see this as more of a community than a hood with graffiti and tags on every wall.
Thank you for reading if you got this far.

If I want others respect and to be respectful then I must do the same. That means admitting my mistakes.
I work aviation and had to fix other people's screw ups last night (and last several days) and screw ups in the aviation world are a big deal, so I take it seriously. When one person is a cause of many problems I get irked... Combine that with the fact my Internet was down all night and tethering was acting up so I had to use the phone to get online... Just a storm of irritation that caused me to use poor judgements.

I got this idea while lurking on the rezound general forum, and a lot of people have really pissed off the amazing devs that offered their help to bring out the most out of the phone. Yeah, it might be a little late to be making this, but with the Eris being my first phone, the community here has pretty well taken care of each other and the developers stuck with us, at least, until they got a newer phone and moved on. My experience in the rezound forum has been a little less than savory, especially in the last few weeks. All of the trolls and wannabe heroes that tell the trolls off have made me remember and miss the good old days here. It's been too damn long, and these devs deserve a thread where we kiss their asses (no sarcasm) To all the devs that ever worked on the Eris, thank you for all of your hard work.
Here's a list of the ones I know of below. I know that there were a lot, so there may be some missing. Just make a post or pm me and I'll add you if I missed you. No particular order. I just went through the first 11 pages of threads in the development subforum.

Thank you ... I haven't looked in the Rezound threads but I've heard its pretty tough there at times. I've found though, that instead of trying to be defensive with them, just call them out, let them know you really don't care and tell them to f-off .... They run back into hiding with their tail between there legs haha.

Thanks as well. This forum introduced me to the whole rooting experience and allowed me to keep using this phone long past what I would have put up with if I had to remain stock.
A a developer I know the troubles with any project and appreciate all the efforts.
Unfortunately I dropped the phone the last week and screen died, so I had to do a quick upgrade. Though about he Rezound but ended up with the LG Spectrum. Nice screen, rooted, but not much in the way of ROM's. Have to wait until ICS comes out.
Again thanks folks.
****ing right. It was a little more then a tear ago I stumbled upon this place and took took the plunge to root my Droid Eris, knowing that I was running 2.1 and would never see anything higher then that cuz the Eris was already at end of life. Then boom rooted unlocked and running gin-tazz. I've been hooked ever sense. Now mongoose is still putting work into this device running 4.0 haha amazing. Thank you all very much

There's so many things he's done for the Eris community, both here and over at AndroidForums, it would be a crime to not have his member name listed for posterity along with all of the other fine folks you listed above.
He is, without question, one of the most knowledgeable folks to have ever posted here at XDA and many, many folks are indebted to him for his help (me included ).
Cheers!

He was always willing to help out noobs like myself and his tweak thread was pretty awesome. This really has been the best community I've seen here.

I miss this forum a lot. We still haven't got s-off figured out for the HTC One S. It's pretty sparse over there.
But man, back in the day this place was humming all day every day. Workshed made it a beautiful phone. Even compared to the phone I have now, it seems like it flew. I know that's just the nostalgia talking, but I don't care. GSB is a great rom.

the thread is stickied!
The Rezound is getting so much love these days by devs, it's really making it hard to decide which ROM to use as my daily driver. I come from a gnex, and it was all the same rehashed stuff. Didn't even have OTA updates on those Roms.
Talk about the come back kid! Couldn't be happier to be in this community, and for good reason. We have awesome devs who work hard, and an amazing device. At least on vzw, it really is the one of the strongest devices, and I think people are finally realizing that.
I just wanted to throw that out there, and I hope some devs read this and realize just how much we appreciate you choosing to support this phone.
Thank you

Yeah right after Google IO everyone was like "MUST. HAVE. JELLY. BEAN." and a lot of guys left for the nexus.
1 month later, the devs are pumping out awesome ROMs.
I suspect many phones have dry spells.
I figured it would pass....it really is a burden being right all the time!
Seriously though, the devs here are fantastic.

Yep, I'm really impressed at how much the developers have accomplished in such a short amount of time since this device released! It's been like, what, a little over 2 weeks? Yet we already have root, an unlocked bootloader, a way to get back to factory stock, and a bunch of custom roms! This dev community has helped to create a bright future for Verizon's Note II and I can't wait to see what else they have in store!
For me this site the awesome work done by so many devs here is why I run an Android device, who wants a walled garden or a phone everyone else has when you can be as custom and crazy as you want to be. Thanks to all who make this a great community to be a part of.

I definitely don't complain about things I can't do myself. My thought to the ETA guys is "if you want it done so fast then do it yourself" I think the team working on the note are some of the best out there...I mean this thing has been out 3 weeks and beanstown106 has already kicked out like 3 ROMs. I mean these guys could punch out roms faster but theyd be buggy as crap. Personally if im putting my name on something its gonna be right. Its crazy. We are just scratching the surface of the dev/mod potential of this phone I think. This is my first Sammy and I'm so glad I made the jump.
I've been following this community since the day it was posted on xda. I've been following everything going on and even donated here and there. I've read and studied every single page lol. I won't be getting my note till after Christmas, but it's okay I feel like a Odin pro by now. Lol. I too wan to shout out a HUGE Thanks. These devs deserve every bit of it.
