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.

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.

What happened to Nonsensikal??????
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=745603
??!?!??!?!?!
Not sure.. he relased 10.1 then the next day the forum stated removed. Some info would be nice, but i haven't seen anything all week till you posted this.
Weird, he has had by far, IMO, the best ROM I have used.
He pull the rom off of XDA for "personal reasons". No idea what that exactly entails.
http://androidforums.com/eris-all-t...ensikal-blue-vanilla-black-3.html#post1763864
It's a mystery ... Google Nonsensikal and you can still find his rom.
Listy said he's moved on. No more rom making. 10.1 was his last, he's now doing apps and other things and I believe he is getting a new device. It's a shame but eventually all our devs and porters will go.

come on man , lighten up ,, people cuzing issues around here is one of the reasons devs leaves ,,TRUST Me!!! when i first started this there were a few people who gave me **** for doing nuthing but makin a rom WHICH i dont even use cuz i dont use the phone for personal use , i have my droid x for that
bottom line we cant make eveyone happy and sometimes its just best to move on as he did ,, not sayin thats y he left but people have pushed me towards the door
....hope we don't lose any more developers. Our phone is discontinued and I've got another year left on my contract. I just read a forum that we're no longer get ANY OTA's. If you downgrade, you must flash back up.
Just curious, why'd the ShadowRom guys leave? I know there was some disagreement about linking to their site, but hell I'll download their rom, sign it (for amon ra people) and post to XDA if that's the only issue. I like to flash and experiment. I want as many options as possible for our EOL devices.

It is the nature of the beast. These fancy pocket computers we have now just don't seem to last long before there's something that is so much more capable out there. And when you sell your current phone and add the 1 or 2 year discounts up, it's hard not to move on.
Besides... There are more up and coming devs than you probably realize. It takes time to learn this stuff.
Oh here we go again. Internet argument. Grabs popcorn
Sent from my nonsensikal froyo using XDA App
Y'all talk about this like it's the end of the world. Look at all the old WinMo phones that still have active development here! What about the G1? That was the first Android phone ever sold commercially. And it's running CM6!
They've even ported over the Hero rom to it with HTC Sense.
Now the down side is our phone is CDMA which means we have several continents of potential developers who don't have our device, but we do have our non-identical twin brother the Sprint Hero which shares 90% of its hardware with the Eris. And the Hero has a pretty active development community. (One reason may be is that Sprint traditionally has lower credit requirements than Verizon and it is easier for people to get phones through them)
Anyway, we have Kaos,Tazz, Conap and a few others others who are churning out stuff left and right for our phones still. Nothing to worry about IMO.
We got Froyo which arrived despite Verizon and HTC saying it just wouldn't work. They also said Android 2 would never fit on a G1 and now they've got Froyo. Apps2SD, Cache2Cache and other great ideas will keep our main memory clear for more stuff. If Kaos continues development on his tool to boot roms from SD cards, we have virtually unlimited storage capacity for bigger and better things.
I am not mad at him leaving and I know i can try another rom, just seemed like his has been by far the fastest and most stable.
Not sure what happened behind the scenes, but maybe he will come back.
His v10.1 was top knotch and super fast.
I wanted to help net get a 3d so he can work on making a bomb kernel for our Phones once we get root! Because we will get root eventually! Anywhozle please state your donation and stay true to it, anything will help.... he said himself he will try to work on it. When I asked if he wanted the help in getting the fone, he modestly replied:
netarchy: "ticklemepinks, that's a loaded question heh, I won't turn it down, but I'm not going to solicit people about it either. if I get the phone, I'll work on it is about all I will say in that regard"

Since this thread has apparently been relocated, and the issues I raised with the original approach the OP took have been fixed, I can confirm that any donations going through the chipin link in the original posters post are indeed being directed at me for the purposes of raising funds to acquire an Evo 3D.
If the community sees fit to buy me the phone, I will be happy to develop for it, but I will not promise unrealistic miracles.
I can't promise that you'll suddenly win the lottery, or have better luck in life.
I can promise that any android device I own will get development time from me (yes that includes kernel development).
You should not feel obligated in any way to participate. The fact is, even if I don't get the phone, there is inevitably going to be a strong development community behind this phone. A good portion of teamwin have the phone, and given the strong sales it's a safe bet that there will be many other developers as well. Any participation in the OP fundraiser should be considered completely voluntary; I will not solicit anyone in this regard.

Why $549? you can get them new for $450 off CL or from me or from ebay so why $549?

Net is one of my favorite developers and I can only WISH he would join the 3D family.
And how is this against the rules? This is done in every other phone section.. whats wrong with being here??

I do not care if they do this i just see no reason to raise $549.00 when you can get the same thing for $400 to $450 elsewhere.
The op just did it wrong i think is why many are upset because no way to track how much and my reason why $549? that is sprints over priced price not what you can get them for.
Id use 1 of my upgrades and sell it for $425 bingo saved 100$ already.See what i mean by the op? he just did it wrong is all.

I admit that I groaned when I saw this thread but I have to say that I applaud the idea. Maybe a better method could be suggested? I have no idea what that is though. I know this has been done in the past but, to be honest, I've never paid much attention to "donation" threads.
I would be happy to donate $$ to get netarchy this phone. Not just to get him to root it, but for all he's given to this community!
sent my $5. i know it isnt much, but every lil bit helps
wait would he be coming over from Verizon? sprint gives 125 for jumping carriers and the 3VO is only 200 on new plans...they might even buy his old/other phone from him....im not sure if they will from another carrier but they bought my evo 4g back from me for 150. Phone only cost me 50 bucks.
Now that HTC made their announcement a couple of weeks ago, we have an actual ETA on the unlocked bootloader. That said, as we all know, it'll be a month or two before this goes into effect. I know that many people (myself included) jumped to the EVO 3D because of the spectacular dev support that the 4G received, hoping that the 3D would get similar support on even better hardware. I think there were many people disappointed in HTC regarding the bootloader and how long it took them to unlock it (and awesomely impressed with dev temp-root workarounds!), and I certainly wouldn't blame developers for jumping ship to another device due to impatience with HTC. Of course, if devs go, there will the people follow.
My question to the devs is that now that we're reaching the deadline of the 30 day exchange policy and with rumors of the Galaxy 2 II on the horizon, are you going to be sticking with the EVO3D or returning it to develop for another phone?
I ask not to call anyone out, but out of sheer curiosity and self-interest. As awesome as this phone is, I want to go with the phone that is going to get the most development, and I know I'm not alone in that regard.
Thanks for your time!
Personally I don't care. But you're going get flamed by some "Obese and Ugly" Super Nerd that has some kind of Napolean Complex and feels the need to tell you that this post is in the wrong section. He thinks he's doing XDA and the "interwebz" a service and also speculates daily that he's important on some grand level.
All that aside. Development for the EVO 3D is ****. It's over. Thanks to Stericson.
I've jumped ship. I'll never purchase another HTC phone, they can shove them up their ass, lock their bootloaders and masterbate on the code as it prints out from their ****** iMac and MacBook Pro's.

Sent from my PG86100 using XDA Premium App
I don't think any devs have jumped ship, theirs just no reason to develop anything right now. The only thing we have right now is temp root and that has been developed into something far beyond what it started off as.And not to forget the all the skins, unrooted rosie mods, overclocking and everyone behind the scenes working on trying to crack the bootloader with the little there is to work with. For now the 3D is a great example of the saying- when life throws you lemons... And when one of the outstanding Devs here squeezes the juice out of the locked bootloader we will have us one fine lemonade stand.

I wouldn't at all (even though we really aren't have a "Dev" discussion right now), I hardly see how anyone can say "HE" killed dev for our device. I don't think the dev is dead at all, hell, he tried to keep all the BS and stupid questions out of the Dev section. I personally think that the fact there has been a min post count rule implemented across the dev forums speaks volumes to and shows that people do need to read and respect the a) section and b) OP when posting in a thread, well.... lets say posting HTC rants in a thread dedicated to our temp root solution.
"He" may have been a bit slow to reopen the thread (in our section) that he was basically forced to police because of morons that can't read or comprehend just what a dev thread is for, but that hardly constitutes making the "Dev being dead, over and out". Said morons and illiterates actually drove the dev's to IRC, away from the public forum where they started and hoped to collect ideas and garner more support from the masses on the development work.
I would like to hear a dev say "he" killed their work on this device... sounds like crazy talk to me from some impatient users.
I won't be jumping ship (speaking as veteran flash addict and avid Dev supporter), we'll have our perm root one way or another. I am just surprised to see people acting so butt hurt over what is going on, a month out of the gate.
Now that, is some sad shhhht to sigh about...
Oh, and... IBTL
I hope allot of the 4g devs do make a appearance, I personally think most of them are the best there is. I believe we picked up a bunch of hero guys too, there's a whole lot of exceptional talent in that group too. I think once we get full root, theres going to be some real awesume stuff pop up overnight in this forum,
I do have to say the ones that are here now are going a great job and putting out a lot of badass stuff considering all most of them have to work with is teamwin's temp root.

So many devs have been working really hard on unlocking and rooting this device. On the near horizon there will be so many awesome mods and roms and mods our heads will spin. It's been around 30 days since the device was released and there are ton's of people on board. Once the bootloader is open the floodgates will too. Just sit tight and wait. Good things to come.
You guys have to realize also there is a BIG difference between devs and chefs

I think that's pretty much where I'm at, just sitting tight. I found myself in the unfortunate spot of getting a 3D with a touchscreen issue, and I'm between doing a 30 day return or exchange. I think more than likely I'll end up keeping it (the thing is a beast), and it's good to know that there's other people sticking around
I think we should all jump ship and give up, after all that's why we're here, at xda developers. Also, this piece of junk unmatched phone had been out for a crazy long 37 days, what with no root... WTF. And that damn mod... Keeping morons with big mouths out of dev threads, what a douche, we should just let everyone say and do what they want in here. That way we could read more. I hope a mod closes this thread and bans the OP for a month, for fun (because this awesome development is... A question). Member since 08 ... Get some email addresses or follow them on Twitter, or pm them, or find them in webchat, that's how you talk to a dev.
BANG! from my shooter...

Good point. I did generalize by saying "devs" but I definitely meant both. ROMs are one of the best reasons to root. Looking forward to getting some CM, kushdeck, and MIUI on this bad boy, not to mention the host of awesome Sense developers like Myn, Virus, and Ava. From most responses, it seems like we don't have too much to worry about. As far as CM and MIUI are concerned, if demand is high enough, there'll either be an official release or at the very least a port, since they're community projects.
Hopefully this will not be closed or bashed! I need some help here, I'm trying to decide between the GS3 or jumping ship to the iPhone 5. I'm disappointed in the iPad, feel like I will feel locked down with the iPhone but I'm ready for a change... I feel like the Galaxy won't be that big of a change for me usability wise, just performance and hardware upgrades so I'm also interested in anyones experiences with Jean Bean ROMs for the EVO 3Ds to make it most like the Galaxy at least for me to decide about the jump to iOS. Hope I can get some help and not just guys in their mother's basements trying to start an argument. Thanks in advance guys!

I don't know much about the iPhone 5, I've experienced iOS6 myself (obviously not much different from iOS5) and it seems a bit smoother. I honestly thought the GS3 was sub-par build quality wise. it felt too lightweight and slipped through my hands easily. I would google both and make a comparison for yourself. Because posting the same thread 3 times, once in the development section trying to start a flame war, and then twice here, is going to get you infracted from hell. I'm not a mod, but I can tell through these course of events you won't last here very long if you keep these kinda actions up. Not trying to be an ass, just giving you a friendly heads-up so you don't get in too much trouble. Hope I helped a little bit
I don't consider asking you (even with the "p" word) to read the forum rules and post in the correct forum "bashing", but now that you have I will try to help.
Here's a pretty unbiased review of the two phones, and here's a side-by-side feature comparison. And one more review with some sample pics from each device.
As far as simulating the SGS3 on an Evo 3D goes, that will be pretty hard to do since Samsung uses TouchWiz and HTC uses Sense, but if you want to try there is some information on getting TouchWiz for the Evo 3D in this post. The TouchWiz launcher on top of one of the CM10 ROM's in the Development Forum may be the closest you are going to get to simulation of the SGS3, but there are so many other differences that you probably would be better off going to a Sprint store or BestBuy and trying the real phones hands on. Since you can't replace iOS on an the iPhone with another operating system, it's probably best to compare the two in their stock configurations.

You did help thanks... I posted more than once because different crowds read different sections and I wanted the view point from all of them. The mod is pretty much saying just find out for yourself. I am sick of the way my EVO 3D works even with a replacement, I work in web/media in sports and I use my phone a lot and have to decide quickly I don't have time or all the knowledge to test every ROM myself LOL

Thanks I appreciate the help, wasn't really lashing out directly at you, I'm sorry but like I said in the other reply I depend on my phone and the apps for my living so I need to decide something soon.
Well also, you should also realize, that xda is a community of over 4,000,000 users, and that the mods already have enough to deal with, and the last thing they need is a triple post on top of their day. A few minutes of patience is all you need before you get an answer. There are several people who check the q&a forums very often (ramjet, flashallthetime, coal686, and myself, just to name a few) and its not like you won't get an answer, its only when you post the same thing over and over that irritates people, especially when you violate the rules on purpose to try and get the answer you want (thread in the dev forum). So like I said, just post once, and check back every so often, and you'll guaranteed get your answer. Obey the rules, that's all any of us here on xda of of people

What I would suggest is go to each individual forum to which phone you would like as your new daily drive and poke around to what actual users are saying, as for iphone 5, I would admit to being anti apple. Issues with maps on ios 6 is a huge issue, it could spell the downward spiral for the iphone?
( Don't ask me for help, as I couldn't care if your phone explodes, eh!!!)

I admin websites with more users than that and I've never had that to be a "problem" I don't get you guys here LOL suppose to be here to help and interact but anyway I ask anyone please do not post anything on this thread unless it is to answer my questions, thanks!
Go to Q & A in the stickies under ask mod any question and that gives you some answers.it is a very hard decision to go with any new phone, research on any forum is your best bet, actual users will have both points of views, bad and good, pro's and con's

Would you mind linking a couple of the websites with user forums that you admin so we can take a look? Maybe we can learn something from seeing how user questions and issues are addressed on other sites.
I know this post doesn't directly address your questions in the OP, but I've already given you as much information as I have on that, so maybe you wouldn't mind sharing something that might benefit the rest of us?
Thanks in advance.

Actually here is my full response to u since u insisted on calling me out in a public forum
No I'm saying learn to search learn try things out on your own. Make up ur own mind on what's best for you. Ask for help when your stuck.
Your saying...spoon feed me everything I want so I don't spend my time looking for myself and oh btw I'm gonna ask a question in the dev section cause it'll get seen more there. Go look in the dev section. How many question threads do u see in there. Did you look at the stickies. The one that reads "must read before u create a thread" or did u think u r special and not subject to the rule.
Obviously you thought that your above them cause you told people in ur thread not to get butt hurt cause u posted a thread where people would see it.
So who makes sense here. On xda we do not spoon feed members. We help members that run into issue. We encourage members to seek out answers on their own. There is a ton of info to get educated on. Use it. Then contribute. Its not that hard.

Lets keep this thread on topic I'm pretty sure thats a rule somewhere... spoon fed or not you guys should be nice and help educate someone especially if they are thinking about leaving android. Going through everything on your own is overwhelming and contradicting so many time especially when you don't have time to. What would be you opinion, you really haven't even clearly given it, I'm sorry if I have overlooked that. What do you think I should do if I am sick of the HTC experience, give the new EVO a try or go to GS3? who knows you might even also like the iPhone?

We answered your question in the first 3 or 4 posts. We told you to try each phone for yourself, and do some snooping around and see what you want to try for the EVO 3D. I don't know what else you want us to tell you. And side note, just because you admin other forums with more members, it doesn't give you the right to be a **** on our forums. Nobody wants to help someone who sets themselves higher than everyone else. We answered your question. Try each phone, and look around in the forums and decide for yourself. There's not much else our community can suggest

They are just site not forums and I wasn't trying the be a ****... I was just suggested to try the upcoming Note 2 that would fit my situation better, suggestions and insights like that is what I am looking for.
Again u want to be spoon fed. We don't do that here. Again search for your answers. I understand ur time is precious but ur not the center of the universe. Everyone's time is precious

Ok after reading all 2 pages, I think I feel cheated.......I will NEVER get my time back! LOL
allofthepeople, here's a suggestion! (hopefully you read all over it and your ADD doesn't kick in)
If you're going to come into a public forum like this and expect people to help you then it helps to follow the rules.
1. Going back and forward with a moderator, will get you NO WHERE!! I don't know how many idiots like yourself I see a day that think they will win an argument with a moderator. Not saying you can't reason with them BUT the way you're acting, is not going to happen.
2. AGAIN, just in case you didn't read #1...This ex-iPhone user, junior high school **** where you think the world owes you something attitude is getting old. Follow the rules and stop geting butt hurt about everything that happens on the internet....GROW UP!
3. Take time from your superstar job (media/sports aka camera man) and go into every thread like the rest of us and decide what ROM is best for you. Also there's this thing called YouTube......you can watch videos there and see as much reviews as you want about any phone.
4. At the end of the day, XDA doesn't need yet another thread from yet another self entitled member asking what's the best ROM or what phone should I get. 6 months to a year when you decide "I don't like this phone" you're going to be the one stuck with it, SO why do you think our opinion should matter??
Oh and if you want this SGS3 feel or whatever.....go find Devil Toast (CM9) and download the add-ons and launcher here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1701961 and enjoy!
[EDIT]
I see you're a bit of a spammer and maybe have a reading problem (most likely that ADD kicking in) because you opened up 2 threads before this, both of which got closed down.....consider yourself lucky that the moderators haven't sent you on vacation I've seen people banned for less!

Could have just said the last part lol and I'm not an ex-iPhone user, never had one thats the point. I am not the one getting butt hurt lol I have read articles and watched videos. Was just trying to get a consensus from supposed educated people who might have had the same experiences I did and could give a little more light on it than I found in the other posts but I guess thats being "spoon fed". Please people stop trying to argue with me and if you don't like my thread then don't reply!!!!!!!
actually im gonna close this thread as the question has been answered and the thread is non longer needed. This is your last warning to listen to what a moderator tells you.
