At least someone is happy with the GSM development. Section....
+1 to all the developers for the 3d!
(GSM or CDMA)
All this complaining. About locked bootloaders that can be unlocked with the HTC method and do almost everything a real S-off can do and complaints about no ETA or ALPHA ICS build when other "less popular" phones have ALPHAs is leaving a lasting impression on my mental stability with some of the "common" users on here .....
I may have to go on a trolololin spree to show all of you what it was like when S-off wasn't around....or a VERY doable HTC method!
Anyways thanks again all the developers in any of the forums...

I ranted on a thread basically saying the same thing you did, just with a less than tactful approach, I got flamed to hell. How dare I say devs aren't motivated to develop as much because the 3D crowd is ungrateful. I feel the same way you do, and it takes away my motivation to begin developing for the 3D, making it a public contribution anyway. I mean imagine how some of the devs that have made contribution (s) feel? I don't think a lot of users really understand how truly painstaking it is to build something as complicated as a platform is. Even the ROM chefs, using another ROM as a base (which by the way all but about two are, and those that do exist [ground up] are alpha, beta, incomplete) it takes a lot of work writing code, booting the slow ass emulator, testing, recoding, rinse and repeat. It is very time consuming doing everything by yourself, without a team. The amount of complaining....ugh...think of it this way...every custom ROM is basically a product that if released by google (as example) would have to be considered a pre release candidate. Effectively a product that is eternally a beta product, experimental version even.
Anyways, if someone below me says "we just had two of these threads last week, another one really necessary?" I may **** out my pancreas. Yes it is necessary. So thanks devs.

Thank you for the support Nate, buddy.
Yes the developers are great and do great work.
I would like to start this off by saying that I know we some great devs on this device who, I'm sure, will make some awesome ROMs/Kernels and I appreciate everything that every developers puts into any device whether I use it or not! Thank you all!
With that out of the way, I would like to start a donation thread to get JoelZ9614 a Transformer Prime. I have already PMed him to make sure he was willing to do this and he is completely up to it. I would also like to say that he has not asked for anything from anyone. I am doing this because he has done a lot of work for the community and never asked for anything in return. I'm sure there are a lot of people with a TFP who also have an HTC Rezound or an HTC Evo 3D and already know who he is. However, for those of you who don't, check out his work and you will see why I am asking for the community to buy him a TFP.
Here are some links to show you guys what he has done....

It's not that he needs the money or the device. I started this because he is another dev that we can add to the TFP and someone who is proven to make quality ROMs. I'll be donating my $15 to him either way. I just thought it would be a nice gesture to show him that the community values devs like him and others enough to help them out a little. I can see why devs are leaving XDA left and right.
These devs do this stuff for FREE and a lot of them never ask for anything in return and there are people who insult them and are completely ungrateful. I don't know how to develop and I know these devices aren't cheap. This is my way of helping them out for helping me keep my device new to me. I have had the same phone since the Evo 3D came out in July and I still get to flash new ROMs every week. I don't get bored with my phone that will be way outdated here very soon! I can't afford to go out and buy phones/tablets every time something new comes out.
EDIT: Guess I should have looked at your join date and post count before going into all that. If you haven't been here before this month and haven't flashed a new ROM or kernel, there is no way you'll understand. It's about appreciation and respect for the devs.

And your point? It clearly says that any threads are done so by your own free will. Nowhere does it say that they cannot be done and I personally have seen them work and seen a few devs get devices. I'm not saying that anyone HAS to do this. It would just be a nice gesture to a great dev.

Hell yea man! Thanks for stopping by this thread. I love your ROMs. You were the first to do a lot. I haven't been genuinely impressed with many ROM devs but you and a couple others have really impressed me! We need a dev over here who can not only compile CM9 but keep up with it.
It seems that everyone who has put CM9 out isnt even maintaining it. Hope we get to see what you can do with this beast!

Man, no love for JoelZ huh? That sucks. Would have loved to see what he could have done with this thing. He made some badass ROMs for the 3D, which doesn't even have an ICS leak yet. Could only imagine what he could get done with something that has official ICS.

I think a lot of people (myself included) are waiting for the supposed GPS/WiFi fix that is supposed to start happening near the end of this month. I personally will wait to see the results of RMAs to see if I will send mine in. Can't send it in if the warranty is voided.
I have used Joel's PrimeXL for the Evo and I still use it to duel boot between Honeycomb and ICS. It would rock if we could get him to develop for the TFP.

It's not, Jer is warning that they can lead to problems not that you can't try it.
So clearly we are all a bit upset about the confirmation HTC has given us, no ICS love for flyer and view users. Certainly a sad day in the history of our device. But that shouldn't deter you from ever seeing ICS on our beloved tab's.
The devs are currently working very hard to get a bootable ICS ROM. And I believe they have made a few monumental breakthroughs over the last week or so. However, they still have quite the ways to go.
Want to speed things up? Want to help out but don't know where to start or how to help.... TRY DONATING!
i've been a part of this process and have seen devices benefit greatly from this in the past.
But i'd like to set this topic up for pepole interested in Donating to achieve a goal.
i'd personally love to see AOSP/CM9 on our devices but there's a lot left still to do, lets help motivate our current developers, and potentially get others excited by posting up what you are TRULY willing to donate should ICS rom's for the flyer/view become commonplace here at XDA.
Im personally willing to donate to all developers involved in bringing ICS rom to flyer at least 50$ for the whole project, to be divided among devs as they see fit.
I will update this post regularly to try and keep a running tally of how much potential donations could be claimed by the group who brings a working ICS rom to our device.
Killerskincanoe: 50 US$
Kudzus: 50 US$
Lawguy: 30 US$
Inmnbob: 50 US$
N7of9: 20 US$
Brandonc_mail: 25 US$
iflyer: 25 US$
RED ZMAN: 50US$
nieves53: 25US$
gbweller: 25US$

I'm not that bitter at HTC as they never promised ICS- but if I bought that overpriced Jetstream- I'd be kinda pissed... or are they getting it after all and I missed a memo?

I'd really enjoy a jetstream I think. The only thing holding me back is lack of dev support. And price. There's really only a few devs for flyer and view. Super glad to have the ones we do! That being said. Tis why I'm starting this thread. Maybe spike the intrest of an aspiring dev looking for a new project or some extra doll hairs for his/her pocket.

All we need is a working kernel. That is 95% of the work to get this started. The kernel for the express and the flyer are different, so we actually need two bootable kernels (one for view, one for flyer). I wouldn't know if the flyer 3G needs a different one, hopefully not so.
I can do the rest of the work transitioning and feeding AOSP ICS roms for view, that's pretty simple and straightforward.
So, some people you can wave that $250 bounty pot to off the top of my head:
- cayniarb
- adrenalyne
- jmztaylor (hope you figure it out, dude)
- LorD ClockaN (maybe if he wants to )
- toastcfh (?)
- ???
any more candidates feel free to toss in.
We actually already got it booting on the Flyer. But it crashes after about 30 seconds because the WiFi isn't working as it should, and that breaks wpa_supplicant, which results in the SetupWizard to crash because normally that APK calls wpa_supplicant.
Edit: no, nvm, that is not it. WiFi ain't working, but the real issue that's going on seems to be a memory leak which makes pmem run out of space, causing the app to crash. Every application has this behaviour, a change in the kernel should sort it out.

enough to buy a tab with some left over.
Gotta clarify that only the flyer is being worked on, no progress in the view though.
I talked with Lord, he has no time unfortunately. cayniarb/tiamat may be getting a view soon. That would mean a good leap for the view if it happens. The flyer guys can just follow up on the other guy.
Sent from my ADR6400L using Tapatalk 2 Beta-4
I'm in with $25.
Which device - Flyer or View - would be worked on first?
Depends on who is the person working on the kernel. None of the devs currently working here have both flyer and view, to my knowledge. It's a lot of trial and error to get the kernel working (and the other device needs a different one), even I have tried for the view. But it is pretty much the only thing that is keeping us from getting AOSP/ Sense 4 ICS right now.
All builds, ports and whatnot should be working fine once we get past that challenge.
Worst comes to worse, the CM team has the view defined in their kernel setup. Just a matter of time if that view maintainer decides to work on it. I don't know about the flyer.
To All, Let's get clear what kind of bounty thread is acceptable and what is not :
A bounty thread that is posted for anyone to claim should they solve a problem or provide a fix is Acceptable.
A bounty thread like this which is to provide a person money or specific team money...etc IS NOT ACCEPTABLE........
THEREFORE...... THIS IS CLOSED AND DO NOT POST A BOUNTY LIKE THIS AGAIN......
THANK YOU ••• MODERATORS
I used the T989 (S2 for T-Mobile) before switching to the note and I must say that his guy is one of a kind and would be a great asset to the i717 dev community.
His T988 ROM (Darkside) is very popular as well as his kernel (Darkside Kernel). Used by 7+ different roms.
I managed to talk to him via PM about helping us out and would contribute if only he had the device.
I will be collecting the funds on his behalf and paying the rest needed for the device within a week or two tops so he can start developing
He's a great guy so please let's not piss him off with ETAs and unnecessary requests.
Lets set our goal at $750 for a new one from Bestbuy or $550 used from craigslist/ebay.
I'll start the bounty with $50 and will pay for the rest for a device after two weeks tops.

First off, no disrespect for you in this post, thederekjay, don't know your work, I'm sure you're great.
But OP, your thread title is disrespectful to the devs working on the Note today. Just because you have a favorite dev/rom on another phone/etc, doesn't mean you should post with that sort of slant. Devs are taking enough crap here lately for no reason.

It doesnt matter how the money is received IMO. As long as donations are for a good cause (Hence Getting TDJ here) then it shouldnt be a problem. People get burned everyday with money, people donate to even "greater real world causes" and get burned, its the way it is, not saying that thats how it should be.
I had no intentions on development for this phone until yesterday night when a few guys insisted that they wanted me to dev for it. They started a bounty the same as this one. I didnt have anything to do with what happened to you all with these other guys that came in and did nothing "per say", so it was not fair at all for my thread to get deleted, nor trolled. I thought the rules were "A dev couldnt ask for money to get his/her a device"
But anyways, im donating 10$ to TDJ Because he is loyal and he works very hard, i have much respect for the man. His Rom was very great, not to mention I even used his kernel and advertised his super wipe script in both of my ROM threads.
Last time im gonna be here...Good luck TDJ

Hi everyone, as a GSM 3D owner, I am really frustrated at this point as there is no ICS release, and dont think there will be anytime soon and here's why: The sensation, vivid/velocity/raider and soon the rezound are the only htc phones that are getting their official OTA, BUT if you do your research, all these phones have had SEVERAL leaks before arriving to the point of getting an OTA. On the other hand we have NOTHING!!! That DEFINITELY means htc has not even started on the 3D yet (as we have NO leaks), and we will most likely get the update sometime in Q3 for sure. Heck, even the galaxy Note got a leak today! It has become somewhat of a trend that ICS must be leaked at least 1 month prior to the official OTA release (tell me 1 phone that didnt!!)
So my request to the devs: please somehow get the camera and 3D working on ICS roms no matter how long it takes (because I know it is possible, just difficult). If we had not waited so long for the official release we would've had a fully functional ICS ROM by now, so if we keep waiting, God knows how long we will be left in the dark for. Please just somehow get those things to work and the community will remember you forever!!!

Nice rant sir. Now shut your face.
^ What he said.
They can't make the camera magically work until HTC release an official ICS update for the EVO 3D, with which it can then be ported. End of discussion.

^ What he said.
They can't make the camera magically work until HTC release an official ICS update for the EVO 3D, with which it can then be ported. End of discussion.

Um yes they can, im not a dev but it has to do something with rewriting the camera libs, which is appatently hard work but its definitely possible. How do you think the desire got the camera working without any gingerbread release back in the day!?

Well i dont understand why everyone takes a request to a dev so seriously, its only a REQUEST not an obligation, i do it to give them some encouragement to do something that only they can, bcz at the end of the day they can do whatever they want, but it'd be nice if they devoted some time to fulfilling our requests. A president of a country doesnt get paid much, but that does not mean he shouldnt listen to the public, in this case the devs are the leaders and we are the people, so they are our only chance of fulfilling something and i think they should listen to the community because with great power comes responsibility (superman never got paid anything)! Lol sry abt my cheesy examples but its true!

Lol funny. My thanks meter shows that i do actually have a life. I'm not on xda all day long like you people, i have real things to do like real people.
i feed my devs donations to make them big and strong, then they can overcome obstacles such as "camera" and "trolls"

Well what if the trolls are bigger and stronger that the devs themselves ? Btw i sooo saw this coming! Having a lil fun on such a geeky forum like this does not make me a troll lol, people need to be more open minded!!

Actually it just shows that you're an unhelpful noob . And gingerbread camera on desire wouldn't have been that hard, I imagine it was a tweaked froyo camera or from another adreno 200 powered device, same way they got the HD2 camera working.

Thought we had hard working Devs,not Magicians..There really is no rush or need for ICS anyways..It'll be here in the next few weeks or Months.Either way what does it matter?

You're KINDA right, the worst mistake i made was trying ICS on my 3D, ever since then my experience with GB has not been the same, it feels so sluggish and incomplete compared to ICS... Hope we get ics before I (if and when) hopefully get a one x (which is at least 6 months away), otherwise, i may have to reconsider buying an htc phone ever again.
