Wow... I usually hate that kind of music, but that was freakin' COOL!
what the hell is with that convo? i'm not following any of it.
Yeah... I'm so sure he lied to catch a troll.... lol!
Thing is... I wasn't even a troll. I actually gave money to support his forum.
And I'm not working for Jcase... his server didn't get hacked. LOLOL.
All i did was question what I read and followed up.
He has no one to blame but himself for the repercussions of lying. See... sure he'll ban me now... but it'll only further tarnish his name.
you can seriously have taken that "email" from the CEO seriously? It was purely fictional and everyone seems to have got the joke but you
The guy is a freakish liar. Your gonna get banned now
You have angered the Gods! Ahahahahahahahaha

Its all irrelevant.
Email Grammar FTW?
I guess, to me, the fact that this email would come from a CEO that doesn't know that "allot" isn't a quantifier, but a verb and uses run-on sentences would be a giveaway that it was a fake. As we all know, the communications sent out by a CEO are usually never directly written by said CEO but rather the communications team at said company. A Communications Director would probably crap a brick if that email had been sent out under their care.

You're absolutely correct.
Funny thing is, if he were to go and look at the history of my posts here and on rootzwiki he'd see I actually tried to get people to support his work and/or defended the idea of donating to the use of his forums and linking to work.
Then he goes and pulls a stunt like that and expects everyone to figure out that he's joking? I don't think so. He presented it as actual e-mails in a thread specifically about contacting verizon to pressure unlocking the bootloader. He should have known that someone would contact verizon in order to confirm the legitimacy of the e-mail... That kind of stuff will have consequences.
Anyway... I've said my piece. Think of this thread as my scam/fraud alert.
Completely and utterly useless thread

Seriously, and this goes for his delusional **** riders, act your age and if your developing - STFU and do it .
Honestly, he has no say either to creditablity, two false promises of releases, idiotic behavior like wow.
To catch a troll? Wow, who said to make his site public or even create it if hes so bad ass, the guy is a moron.
OK. We are just going to close this, it's not going to go anywhere positive.

Wow Steve Jobs was very arrogant.
Apple has made it practice from its birth to steal product, they stole the mouse and ui from Xerox, stole from Microsoft, Microsoft stole from them, apple has never been great...Steve jobs was just better at stealing, and had an undeniable charismatic and marketing genius. Google is superior. Open source and freedom if info is the future, us younger guys will not accept a future that is any different
F#*k Apple & their ****ty products , Android is a stolen Idea ?! B.S !!!
He was whining about that because he knew its better then this Icrap he bragged about until his last day .
Never liked IPhone & will never own one .
Their marketing ways sux ass their products are way to overrated .
Bottom line Android is the Real Deal & always was & gonna stay # 1 .

"I will spend my last dying breath if I need to, and I will spend every penny of Apple's $40 billion in the bank, to right this wrong," Jobs said, according to the AP report. "I'm going to destroy Android, because it's a stolen product. I'm willing to go thermonuclear war on this."

Someone had suggested watching Pirates of Silicon Valley, I second, and I hope someone will third. It shows Steve Jobs and Billy Gates, who they really are, and what kind of people they are. They don't play fair, they play dirty.
Jobs was arrogant, some of it he deserved, but most of it he didn't. For Steve Jobs to say he was going to fight google/android because it was stolen is hypocritical. There isn't one, but multiple thefts of copyrighted intellectual property, and it isn't just apple, but steve jobs himself personally perpetrating the theft...it is dispicable.
Furthermore; Android is open source, anyone can see the source code, it's very easy to prove it isn't stolen. No subponea needed, any joe public member can download android source code. Eat that Steve "Blow Jobs

I've heard good things about that movie. He was a snake and definitely a hypocrite. But in the industry, everyone is in a way. I'm not totally against him. I'm a fan of the MacBook Pro.

I think steve jobs went with the old saying "if you can't bet them join them", which is why he copied alot of android features just like android did to ios5
Maybe he was just pissed that other companies stole his idea...the idea to steal other peoples idea. It just wasn't fair to copy what he already did and get away with it like he did. Someone has to pay for that kind of disrespect.
You all make excellent and well taken points.
I think that it's pretty obvious that Eric Schmidt pulled a Bill Gates on Steve, and if I were him I'd be POed as well. You can't tell me that Android didn't copy(well, actually clone) iOS once Google realized that nobody wanted a BlackBerry after the iPhone was released. Check out early Android prototypes, they're complete BB clones and look NOTHING like Android phones today.
I'm going to post this here because this is essentially where it all started, so I figure it's fitting.
This is basically an "Ending" to everything that happened on this thread Public Warning, Jaywan is Untrustworthy which is still up, but currently locked. I decided not to ask to have it opened again because I didn't want the chance for anything to be changed in that thread. Things got interesting at Page 30, and then started getting odd around the end. (Panda lol's)
In that thread I explained how my friend, and later 2 other people came forward stating that a phone being sold by a dev here was not shipped, and all communications stopped as soon as he received the money from each person. His explanation was that he went on vacation and left the shipping up to someone else. Page 28 he made an appearance, but, in my opinion, handled the comments from everyone else very poorly. by making threats of lawsuit, Tasteless jabs at the situation, and even an admission of insurance fraud
So, that is a recap of that thread... Oh, and did I mention Polar bears?
Here is how it all ended. Rugedraw was the only one that opted to go through with the purchase of "one" of the 3 he said he was selling. This is the message Rugedraw sent me on it's arrival "Hey, man.....I received the package today. The phone is as described. Boots up fine and has a 2.3.5-based Sense 3.5 rom on it. It even came included with an OEM HTC soft rubber case. I called Sprint and verified that the ESN is clean and the phone can be activated.
I have to say: I am 100% satisfied with the phone.
Who would of thought that last week, huh?"
So, he got what he paid for. But after everything, my friend and Faugnom1 weren't interested in possibly getting jerked around anymore and simply opted to have their money returned. Which Jaywan said in the thread he would do.
Paypal was never contacted by him on neither case. On Dallas's case, he had until Nov. 8th to respond or Paypal would rule in Dallas's favor. Which they did, He has had his money returned BY Paypal. faugnom1's case required a response on the 10th. This is what faugnom1 sent me:
faugnom1:"He said he would pay me by today, the same day my paypal thing is up. So if I dont hear from him in a few hours ill finalize the case.
Me:Did you just go thru withthe PayPal dispute?
faugnom1:Yeah never heard from him again after that one day. Paypal ruled in my favor.
So, Paypal disputed in both Dallas's and faugnom1's favor and they were both repaid.
on a personal note:Thank you to the community, the support was tremendous and I tried not to make it a witch hunt, and I know some Mods look down on this type of posting, but I felt it was being ignored and the post did bring 2 more people in who had the exact same thing happen. If everything is quietly handled, it allows the person to do it again, and then after that, maybe getting banned. If it's brought into the light I believe it serves the community better. If this happened to me, I went on vacation and left it all up to someone, I would feel horrible and give out as much info as possible. I don't want people to think I'm dishonest went I am not. It's not a matter of "IDGAF!!" it's a matter of "that's not who I am and I'll clear my name".
I'm baffled on how his account hasn't been banned (disabled and reenabled 2 times though). While, sure, this may have been all some big misunderstanding by some miracle of coincidences. Other members have been perma-banned for less. He made threats in a thread that was deleted by mods, made light of the situations, and was very combative and offered no forward explanation to anyone involved, only stating "if they want an explanation they can PM me" for someone who took 3 peoples money and then lost all contact with them, coming back with that attitude is shocking to say the least.
Thanks for filling us in.

Because Jaywan's account is still NOT BANNED, I'm PM'd a MOD to see if he can take care of it (ie perma banning that fool)
I believe the mods have better things to do than permaban his retarded ass. Like banning people for posting bad pictures or threating banning for using bad language or for flaming or arguing. Cause that's much worse than some dip**** that steals peoples money and shows how much of a douche he is.
Seeing as his account still isn't banned, it's safe to say that the moderators don't care. If they would at least stay out of the MP altogether, I wouldn't mind so much. It's the fact that they pick and choose when and how they will participate that bothers me.

Unless of course this post and the news story put the idea in people who otherwise wouldn't have thought about's heads.

i for one am glad to know this, i doubt it will happen to mine, but ill be extra careful.
blaziner, no offense but you are definitely the worst offender when it comes to creating pointless threads...lol. I will give you credit though, some of them have been oddly, and I mean very oddly, well received. You created the 'your hype level' thread, no? That was maybe the most pointless thread I think that I have ever seen created in all of my many many years on the Internet and yes I was an adult when the Internet first became popular (barely). That said people seemed to like it and wanted to come by and say how hyped they were on a scale from 1 to 10. How can you argue with that? Carry on my pointless friend.
I should qualify this post with the fact that I have also seen some constructive posts from you as well. Maybe not threads but at least a few posts. And I don't mean this post as an insult in any way either. I know it can sound that way sometimes on these internets.
Pretty sure the world ending would void the warranty, as that is an "Act of God" and specifically excluded from coverage.

So we all know who he is, and yes he is a troll with nothing better to do (obviously has no life outside of xda), but he did have a point and his remark did actually help this time (believe it or not). I did not know about the upload limit, and although Feline11 was trying to be a troll, he actually helped.
I know Binary and Whisky know how I feel about Feline11, and I still say ban his IP address and subsequent IPs that will certainly follow. Anyone that will create multiple email accounts just to troll forums has serious mental issues that should seek professional attention asap... Especially at his young age.

I don't care if he helped. He's been a member for a long time and he went very far out of his way to make us think that he was a new member. He even asked a very noobish question something of the lines of "If I take the sdcard out of my phone will it break recovery?" and we both know that he knows better than that. We need honest members that intend to help eachother. Not members that are going to deceive others and turn against them like a stray dog. He was given a punishment for his action and he should be mature enough to face it and not to go around it. We don't just ban people just because we feel like it because if that was the case we would have totally different forum with totallly different moderators. We try to be fair to the members at all times. Is it too much to ask that we get treated with the respect that we deserve rather than trying to insult our intelligence? His ip address was banned and barred from registration as well as his e-mail addresses but I have a gut feeling that we'll be seeing him again. But the good thing is that we have other means to detect those type of accounts other than ip addresses and all we need to do is look. And to look all we need to do is suspect that something isn't right. Obviously in this case something didn't fit right with me and that's why I took a closer look thus unveiling his real identity. He may not have been trolling but it would have only been a matter of time until he did. Remember that the problem isn't his username, it's his attitude and that is nearly impossible for him to change otherwise he would have done so by now.

I don't care if he helped. He's been a member for a long time and he went very far out of his way to make us think that he was a new member. He even asked a very noobish question something of the lines of "If I take the sdcard out of my phone will it break recovery?" and we both know that he knows better than that. We need honest members that intend to help eachother. Not members that are going to deceive others and turn against them like a stray dog.

Right and that's the kind of habits that we look for. That kind of suspicious behavior or an unusual post like what popped up earlier when it drew my suspicion is what causes us to have a closer look. It's really easy for us to look for duplicate accounts. Now it IS possible that a new account can be opened up with another members previously used ip address but even in that situation is pretty rare. But what's even more rare is when he's banned on the 21st and a new account is opened on the 23rd and both members post in the same forum. I think the odds of that happening would be like being attacked by a great white shark on a Detroit metro bus that's actually running on time. Neither will ever happen and for both to happen at the same time... there's just no way. Yet he's surprised that I caught it? Naive little fool.

haha you'd think he would be a little more smart about doing it at least.. if i was a troll id go to starbucks and use their wifi or something lmao, good thing im not though.
Wasn't trying to defend him... Believe me. I took my only infraction ever over his trolling and went many rounds with him the other night when he was banned. I'm glad he's gone and appreciate the Mods like Binary and Whisky for keeping this thread clean.
On another note, since this is useless with it being 100mb file size dealy, should we maybe just close the thread?

Without a desktop sync software I find box really useless so I prefer to use the 5GB dropbox instead. If Box could get with the times I would use it but I guess no money in it for them to offer it free.

Felinos11 was a complete ignoramus. I have been here a short while and been rounds with the kid. I was amazed at how many other people he got into it with.
You can tell he is just an immature kid.
Thanks for ridding us of him, till his next alter ego pops up.

Closing the tread now per OP request.
Operation #MotoBBB:
I really don't know how useful making a new petition at Change.org is going to do, given that OP MOSH didn't lead us anywhere. But I feel that this + the BBB complaint rally may take us somewhere. Because, for each new BBB complaint, Motorola receives a brand new complaint, a brand new email to reply to and each email they ignore, the more their ratings and ranking and reputation will be affected at BBB.
So, here is the new petition @Change.org:
https://www.change.org/petitions/mo...s-unlock-the-bootloaders?share_id=ZhoxoqVsuz&
The aim of the petition is to get an apology from Motorola and Verizon, get all our Bootloaders unlocked AND get all the devices released within 18 months of the ICS release date to be updated to ICS.
The aim of the BBB complaint is to submit a personal, one on one complaint to Motorola. The way this works is that Motorola will get an email detailing the complaint and they should respond to it within a month, else it will count negatively on their ratings at BBB. An XDA member named iBolski already did this and he got a very detailed response. So this seems to be effective.
Secondly, I and several other users at the Droid X2 forums have also filed a complaint. Though we didn't get a response yet, I feel that Motorola is taking its time as it wants to respond correctly. So, I feel that this is adding pressure to them. Nevertheless, the fact that they MUST respond, otherwise face consequences definitely means that if a sizeable number of people complain, they will be under severe pressure.
So far 9,279 people signed the OP MOSH petition. I can't imagine how much pressure this will cause if each person who signed that petition also filed a BBB complaint. So many BBB complaints in such a short time would firstly be a record and secondly will be a huge pressure on Motorola who HAVE to respond to each and everyone of them, else face consequences.
Therefore, I URGE you to file a BBB complaint, even if you Don't sign the petition. But please do sign the petition once you file a complaint since that way I will know how many of you guys filed a BBB complaint!
Attached is a template letter for filing for the BBB complaint AND instructions on how to do so!
May we prevail! Please do submit this thread as a news tip! The more people know about this, the stronger we get! If you want to follow my ongoing struggle with Motorola, go to: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1547632
Instructions to File BBB Complaint + Template Complaint
God speed!
P.S: Moderators, upon consulting with a few xda members I felt that this is NOT spamming as I am soliciting the help of members across several forums. Hence, please do not ban or in other ways punish me. If this is spam, kindly let me know, since I have done this for the first time and moreover, as can clearly be seen from the post I am bringing forth a genuine concern that needs me to post this across all Motorola android phone forums! Thank you for understanding.
FIRST !!... no really... seriously though.. I'm in <runs off to file the BBB complait and sign the petition>

I understand that you guys want an unlocked bootloader. I don't understand why you would buy a phone with a locked bootloader then complain that its locked? I also don't understand why you think motorola or Verizon is obligated to take any action?

I don't understand why you're so complacent with a locked bootloader. Why do you drink the kool-aid like the rest of the sheeple ?
If you're not going to support this effort then go ahead and move along to another thread where your comments might be more welcome.
Have a wonderful day... toodles

when a society sits on their tails instead of standing on their beliefs, well, it makes for a sore ass.. Stand for something, stand strong, fight to the death. If nothing else, you won't be bored. Maybe they'll at least tell us to STFU in which case we can still prove that we got their attention, right ?

I'd like to thank this and the previous post, but I ran out of thanks for today! What the!? How am I limited to thank people? In real life I thank as much and as often as I can, so XDA you can learn a thing or two!
Anyway, if you are in anyway interested, or find yourself bored at some point of time, you can pop in and have a look at the ongoing fight I am having with Motorola! Today was a productive day in the fight! Check it out here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1547632
PROTIP: The Better Business Bureau RARELY does ANYTHING about a company that pays their BBB dues. And you can bet your bippy that both Google and Motorola Mobility pay their BBB dues.
Who actually checks the rankings of the bbb!? They're just a self promoting business themselves, with no real power to pressure any business to make any changes. If you want to affect a business don't buy it's products.

even if this is 100% true, we at least will have the satisfaction knowing that we're flooding them with email, snail mail, or enough crap to piss any sane person off.. which is plenty for me.. if it convinces them to unlock the bootloaders, BONUS..
just sayin'

Flooding BBB with frivolous complaints will make Motorola change a phone?
