Let's clean this up a bit, shall we?
I get the impression sometimes that we (speaking about everybody here in the 3D forums recently) make this place sort of "unfriendly" with sarcasm and troll posts, rudeness when people post in the wrong section, create duplicate threads, so on and so forth...
First of all, I will say that I am fully aware of my own contribution to this, lol. BUT... i was thinking earlier about when I started out over on SDX and how friendly and eager people were to help me when I was new to the android/Linux scene (although I still had somewhat of a basic understanding of it because of my knowledge of windows, Linux and especially android was a new world to me and much of the knowledge I have picked up since then was simply because people were so willing to offer help and their own knowledge - regardless of "noob" questions (when I simply could have used a search button).
Yeah, for whatever reason you just want to punch people through the computer sometimes when they post in the wrong section or make "hAlp my phonez is teh broken" threads that can easily be fixed with some searching around. But I think we should try to be a little bit more of a friendly and tolerant (and therefore tolerable... ironically) of the things that go on around here.
Anyways, just some dumb ass rant post. But I thought I would share this thought because I feel the action of it could be a positive thing around here.
oouuut.
So, I will be nicer to people. Let's all try this, shall we?
except for freeza.... i am still trolling you.... on a regular basis. lulz

In the Netherlands we always say: there no such thing as a stupid question but only stupid answers.
You hit the nail right ok the head. I joined
XDA almost a year ago and everyone was very helpful. I learned a lot. Now its a lot of people b***ing about stupid things like a devs work or a question they they have decided is "dumb".

If I've helped you in any way... hit the "Thanks" button.
I think a lot of it has to do with the fact that since there's been a flood of Android phones hitting the market over the last year and a half or so, there's also a flood of people who come with it. They buy a new Android device, hear about 'rooting' and jump on here. Not everyone knows the meaning of respect, and they expect things to just be handed to them. There's definitely more idiots on here than before, but also just more people overall. No matter where you go, the more people around, the more idiots there will be. It's unfortunate indeed.
I try to be helpful, but it's definitely aggravating when someone just flat out doesn't read a damn thing, and asks a question that's clearly typed in the OP. When I joined, I didn't know ANYTHING about rooting, ROMs, etc. but I read a few things and learned.
There are a few forums that I use that have a n00b section with zero intolerance for the replies to questions in said sub-forum, maybe that would be nice, then we can segregate the n00bs and flame more well-known users for asking stupid things. Lol

I used to get on here several times a day, reading these forums, but it took me a long time to actually register because the few immature people that start a fight in the thread made it look irritating. Like whoever posted in the recent ICS thread about how the OP was information from another thread, even though the OP was several pages long.
Who cares? It's something else to read. That's why most of us are here, for some form of entertainment.
n00bs != newbies
Newbies don't know things and after TRYING to figure it out themselves, they have ended up, seeking answers for uncommon situations. This is OK.
n00bs, on the other hand, don't know ****, they don't give a crap about learning and expecting from others to give all the answers on a gold plate without moving a finger on their foot. This is not OK.
The sooner pseudomoralistic idiots realize this, the sooner will be this place be as it used to be before. If not, I'll continue to troll n00bs for my own amusement and you can kiss my shiny ass.
'Nuff said.
Every time I see someone say "cool story bro" I add them to my ignore list. Just added another..
That said XDA has gone steadily down hill. I remember when I first came here I was actually afraid to post. Now XDA is so addicted to member counts that they let just about anything go. Had a guy yesterday asking how to hack Amazon this is the crowd being attracted now. Its a shame and like many others i'm looking for the next XDA. Problems is the asses will just following. BTW I have no idea what the OP posted because he is already on my ignore list as it the poster below him now.

Yes, the "an answer is easily found by a very fast google search but I'm too lazy to do it or just expect you tell me" crowd is the problem I agree. Even if they are not the majority, when I see a new thread or question that seems like an easy find, I get really mad because I had to take the time to learn and search on my own. I've been on here since 2006 and I guess because of all the new androids out there you get people who are not technologically inclined trying to do technicological things.

/pulls out soap box and stands on it
first off you wouldnt believe the amount of buttholes and douchebags mods put up with on a daily basis. most often we only get called in when there is a problem, so everyone wants to talk about how things have changed and how it sucks putting up with the idiots. put on mod glasses, i would 75% of the people on here, instead of just reporting a troll or a n00b posting in the wrong spot or a spammer, they in turn flame, troll, spam the person that just needs reporting. so that means, we then have to clean everything back up, figure out who to get rid of and sort the whole situation. its not fun. if you want to see things change, be the change. report posts, dont flame the idiots, dont feed the trolls, just move on with your day. we arent afraid to boot people, we arent about "registration numbers", we are about supporting developers. but we cant be in every thread at once or all the time. if you see something out of place, report it, everyone has that ability. but most of us just return the favor of flaming people.
i became a mod, because i believed that a difference could be made. i reported posts, before i was a mod, i was helpful to people, i tried to teach n00bs the correct way of doing things instead of treating them like trash. yes there is an over abundance of users now due to the influx of android devices, most of the new users dont know anything, and they wont ever learn anything if we all are douchebags to them.
if XDA is becoming something that it wasnt in the past, its because we as a user base are allowing it to be so. be a respectful user, help people out, if someone is doing something they arent supposed to report them. serisously, how are we supposed to know whats going on if we arent notified?
/steps off soap box
I think a large problem too is it really does feel like the mods play favorites. I don't want to bring up the whole Chad.Goodman thing, and how he was reported and pulled in a matter of hours, yet, when he reported other non-GPL complying dev's nothing was done to them. Or my own situation, having important threads detailing hostile actions from one particular user being deleted without any reply or communication from a mod as to why. That user having no repercussion for his actions.. It's really feels that it's not an equal ground forum a lot of the time.

i agree that it may feel like that sometimes, and sometimes mods need to do a better job in communicating. users will not however see everything that goes on behind the scenes. if we infract someone we dont broadcast it, its really no one else's business if i infract you, thats why other users cant see other peoples infractions. if you dont like the way a mod handled something, ask him (or her) how/why they did what they did. dont be hostile about it, just pose a question. i know we are more than willing to talk to users about their issues, and come to the best possible resolve.

It's not beating us if it's not usable, and alphas are not generally usable.
I'm guessing LG and Samsung actually releases their source code as they should unlike HTC
We actually have a ics port that boots as well. The devs just don't want to reliese something that completely doesn't work besides boot

Maybe some are, and maybe some want to release stuff for prestige, or some other motivating factor, but its my personal opinion that we have a very select number that are actually good at what they do and are true perfectionists.
I'll tell you another thing I think, my opinion, not trying to offend anyone, but the evo portion of the community is bad. No developer wants to develop hundreds of hours of labor to I thankless bunch of snot nosed, cruel bunch of assholes the community has. There are so many people here that launch unprovoked attacks against members that haven't done anything. There is only so much you can give to the community when all someone does is take take take, flame flame flame. How can some of you be so cruel to your fellow xda brethren, or just people in general? I really am sorry your mothers didn't love you enough, or maybe you got diddled as a child, or were so socially inept that you were tormented. Treating other people like garbage isn't going to fill those holes. Get yourself a good therapist, and come back when you know how the rest if us operate.
Anyway, it has severely hindered the desire to develop. I know I won't be developing anything for the evo because of it. When I get my next device we'll see how that community behaves. Sorry for the rant, but I'm entitled to my thoughts and opinions, I'm sure it will resonate for some, and others won't give two ****s in a turkey ****.

I agree with about half of this. I think in your efforts though you should have risen above and not flamed the flamers. Your right some people are just plain out rude though! Which scares the devs away. Some people also don't realize that questions are only natural. Newbs will he newbs. Now some people might be lazy and not wanna read but sometimes threads just get crazy and hard to follow.
For example I saw several people ask about viruses 3.5 rom. From what I saw everything in his op was about eternity 3.0. No one wanted to answer a few simple questions. And half of them.got flamed. They spent more time typing there flame then it would have been to answer the question.
I wish I could have answered the peoples questions but I was in there same boat. I was trying to find my own answers but I was searching from work on my phone.
I work sixty hours a week. So I struggle to spend half my time on viruses website.like I used to and find it to be impossible to keep up sometimes. Svn logs really help though! I love myn and the crew because there religious with those things. And xrepinsporex I hope I spelled that right has a website hosting svn roms that saved my life.
Hopefully someday well have a community as strong as those members. Its those guys that have made my XDA experience the best it could possibly be.

It couldn't be any easier for my point to be made. Without mentioning a single person specifically you verbally attack me? Do you feel the need to demonstrate your superiority or something? Well whatever it is, I would be interested to hear your thoughts. I'm not sure what makes respond to me in that matter, because I'm quite sure I have never said a single thing about you.
You have your right to speak your mind and say whatever you want to me or about me, in fact I would feel better if you did, because I would like to know if there is something I need to apologize for. You shouldn't feel any generalized post by me has anything to do with you.
I will say one negative thing though. A post like yours is extremely hypocritical. You can justify your response to me, but I am not entitled to my expression? That's a load of ****.
As for me preaching; sorry if it offends you, but the same actions I just complained about offend me. Furthermore, I would like to hear how I said anything about being more moral than anyone. I do my fair share of immoral, unethical behavior. I can tell you for certain, I never am intentionally cruel to anyone. I even hold no ill feeling towards you.

OP: Talking about ICS Ports
Thread: Flame war about flame wars
Oh XDA, your cycles of garbage and ineptitude cause me such bittersweet joy!
Lol I think it was a valid point. When you aren't getting paid to develop, there has to be some other motivation to share your innovation with others. Would you share your peanut butter and jelly sandwich with someone that was a bully? That's all I'm saying.
The evo 3D is still a valid piece of hardware. It may be a little slower to get ics though. The holidays coming up doesn't help either, there are so many other things to worry about.
The way I look at is that... Why should the devs release it?
First of all, there are way too many people here who bi**ch about little things not working.
Second of all, the TOUCHSCREEN doesn't work. There will be a bunch of people whining and complaining and asking why they released it without even having a touchscreen. When they have clearly stated that it doesn't work.
I think it would just be a huge cluster f**k if they released what they do have, which would slow down development even more.
I want ICS just as much as the next person but I'll either wait quietly until they release it or until I can do it myself. Everyone just needs to be patient and a little more respectful if the developers decisions.

I believe that was an SDK port. The only thing that will get us anywhere is a build from the source. This one guy was trying to get a bootable ROM and said he was close, but that probably wont be released until touchscreen is working which won't be soon.

I have been around since the beginning of android. I Had a G1, then a Nexus One, to a MT4G, and now a Rezound. I rooted every one (minus the rezound obviously) and frequented the forums, learning and discussing the Mod'ing of these devices. As these past years have gone by, I have grown more and more concerned with the direction the community has taken.
Now there has always been at least some drama within the community, but as Android has grown in popularity, and more users seek info in the forums, the drama has ramped up exponentially it seems.
I remember when it was more about info than ego...
My request: Can we please get back to what its really about? Mod'ing, Flashing, and fun. Lets leave our egos at the door, they only do more harm than good. A sense of community and mutual respect is what we should strive for.
No personal insults/attacks be respectful even in disagreements
Don't steal code... give credit where due
Don't be a troll
Don't flame someone just for ignorance (if they seem to be habitual in forum misuse tell a mod so they can investigate and they can handle it appropriately)
Expect nothing, make no demands, ask politely... this goes for all sides
Remember this is a hobby and just for fun for most of us. Replace the fun with drama and what is the point.
I am sure there are other things I could list, but that will do for now.
Edit: resurrected from the dead...
Just so you guys know... Nobody is owed anything. No Dev owes you ROMs, root, or anything else. Vice versa, no user owes a Dev anything for their work. (paid market apps excluded) The rooting community is a hobby based entity. We work on respect and a mutual love of the platform. Donations are voluntary but a good idea. (It makes Devs feel appreciated)
Another thing... Drama... It kills the community. It runs off users and Devs alike. It creates a hostile environment that no one wants to deal with. When a device looses Devs it can be a death nail to the further development for that device.
When you think "just my one little question on ETAs won't be a big deal, I'll PM/IRC/tweet/IM the dev" you have to remember... about 100 other people are thinking the exact same thing. Its one thing to pop in the ROM's thread and if you don't see any activity for several days/a week, to post a quick question like "how is it going?", as dealing one one question and being able to answer publicly so others benefit too is not a big deal... Just don't get upset if the answer is a simple "we are still working on it" Often times there is a lot of effort put in but no real progress to report, no landmark goals yet made.
When you take the ETA/update questions into areas like IM that you start getting several people an hour pestering someone with the same question and it gets old...
^^^^^that's what it should about. But u got so many newbies here (and we all started somewhere of course) it seems as of the trolling and such come from New people not understanding the aspect of the site. But I k.ow I'm wasting my time typi.g his. Hope it happens.

When I first started coming here, it was all about the phones. Helpful people, friendly community, the works. After a while it just seemed to deteriorate. Every other thread was a flame war. It got to a point where i'd rather rack my brain or scour Google before I'd ask a question in here, because I knew some ego tripping person with no manners was gonna try to flame me for asking a simple question. A little respect/courtesy can go a long way, whether if ur helping someone or being helped.

I understand that phones can be frustrating, and so can users. But, if you can't post in a helpful and friendly way, you probably shouldn't post at all.
Temporary (and the threat of permanent) banning should be used to keep those in line who do not have the self control to handle posting in a respectful manner.
I wouldn't worry too much. With the Galaxy Nexus going on sale today, most of the babies crying that they can't unlock/root their Rezound are most likely in line right now to exchange their Rezound for the Galaxy Nexus. That should weed out many of those who do nothing but complain here in the Rezound threads.

This should be in the general forum, not a phone specific Forum.
That aside, I agree. This is a forum where the work people do is totally by choice, because they like it as a hobby or for whatever other reasons they may have. It's all about respect and patience, something a lot of people need to remember and practice themselves.

Not trying to start anything or flame anyone, but isn't it the Mod's job to determine whether a thread is posted in the wrong area and move it accordingly? It just seems that if you come behind someone who took the time to start a thread and tell them that its in the wrong place, you come off like a smart Alec and thus animosity begins. Not saying that u are, just saying some ppl get off on that and only that. Once again, not trying to start anything, just my two pennies.

It is their job, I was just saying what I think but I realized that I didn't put the phrase "I think " in that first comment. It was and still is a suggestion before some people flame him cause it is in this forum. Also, if he wants to get that message out, its towards the whole community, not just people in the Rezound forums, know what I mean. Didn't mean to sound like a smart Alec ='(.

Yeah, I considered putting this in the over all general forum, but I am seeing so much craziness here in the Rezound forums that I thought it was needed here the most. I might throw it up in the Android general section if you guys think I should.
I love this phone, but I am getting impatient for root.
It is mostly the battery life issue. I hate extra batteries with a passion and hate needing to charge during the day as well. I am a light user, I just game a few minutes during breaks, send a few messages through the day and a few random things here and there. I really only have a smartphone for the convenience that it brings and the fact I like the Android OS and followed it since early 2007. With my MT4G even on a heavy use day (for me) I would have 40% left when I went to bed and charged, usually it was around 60%. With the larger screen and dual cores, I don't expect the same, but I know it will be better with cyanogenMOD on it. I can get through the day, but just barely, and that is on my lightest days.

I very rarely head over there.
I agree 100% with the OP. If people talked to each other like they would if they were sitting next to that person, half of the stuff wouldn't be said. When I drove a truck over the road, we used to call them people "CB Rambos".

Hmm...?? Who Are You Referring About? I Didn't Think I Said Anything Wrong Just Noting About Not Many People In "Here" Read The xda-General. If I Said Something Wrong I Do Apologize There Was No Condescending Intention.
So, let's be honest. I'm not exactly the most popular person on this specific forum.
A lot of you know me for my rather-- well, let's put it kindly, firm opinions when it comes to Apple being discussed here.
That being said, an apology to quite a few of you is in order. Let's face it, all niceties aside, I've made quite a few posts that make me sound like an almighty dickhead, and I admit it, I went overboard. What started out as me being quite protective of the developers on XDA who gives us all we flash kind of gave me a bit of an ego, and I've been quite rude to people who don't really deserve it.
The truth is simple; I love Android. The only reason I'm on this forum is because I love Android. While I may disagree with other users' opinions on Apple, I really should be going about expressing those opinions in a much more constructive way, because reading through my own posts, I can see where I've used phrases or figures of speech that the situation really didn't call for. I've used profanity in many posts even though XDA very much does not allow it.
I've had a specific way of posting for quite some time, and I'd like to change that. I mean, we're all here because of a common interest, right? I'd like to enjoy the company of people who have found happiness in the same things I have. It's really not in my place to tell any of you what to think or what opinions you have, and for that, I am truly sorry for attacking any of you.
I'd like to make this clear; no moderators or staff members asked me to make this post. This isn't the result of two infractions which I've received (which I admit, I deserved). This apology is because I want to remain a part of this community and the way I treat some of you is just not acceptable. In my line of work (in real life), if I talked to any one in the same way which I've talked to some of you, I would be instantly fired.
So here's my resolution. I'd like to make a promise to approach situations with a far, far more respectful and professional manner. I'd like to live up to my Recognized Developer name (as well as put out a few things which I've slowly been working on). Right now, I don't feel deserving of my title, and I want to change how I act to reflect that fact I'd like to keep it.
So in the future, you can expect me to mellow down quite a bit. You can expect me to remain as polite as possible, and to make my posts as informative and as useful as they can possibly be. You can expect me to not be condescending, and you can expect all these things because you shouldn't expect anything less than that from me.
In short; I've been a jackass. Solution: stop being a jackass. :good:
Thanks for reading this.
Sounds like a good solution to me! lol, welcome back from the world of the insane.

Just incredible. I have been fairly drama free but some of my old teammates at Android Creative Syndicate (where I was a Site admin) are pretty mad with me too cause I have also done some wrong things in dealing with my exit from that Site and starting my own. Takes a man to admit when he was wrong and you have inspired me tonight to find some people and make amends. I'm being totally serious to this inspired me. It's huge and I appreciate it. Ty much

Indeed you are correct sir. Infact Ive made a new pretty awesome friend through these forums. Infact we went disc golfing the other day. Had a great time with someone that has similar interests as I. I look forward to hanging out with him again and look forward to meeting more of you fine people on here. The world is a POS and its nice to be a part of a community that bonds together through similar struggles and endevors. Though its gonna suck in 8 - 12 months when people start jumping ship to the next phone. Until then LETS ROCK THIS MOTHER FATHER!
I'm not sure wth happened, but I still have a ton of respect for you LS, for doing this. As long as I've been here, I have Iseen, and even myself partook in some heated/uncalled for "debates" on XDA but never have I seen anybody sincerely apologize for their mistakes on this forum. I honestly feel that the way we treat people online in mostly anonymous situations like forums shows a lot about our true personalities and morals even when regarding reality...We just tend to bring out the parts online that we're afraid to act on and do because we know how we'd be perceived in reality.
Much respect man.

I have to say I enjoy reading your debates like Kao and the other poster (sorry, on ltevo app, afraid I will lose typed info if I look).
When u feel u need to challenge fact or opinion for that matter then please do. I come here to learn about the things u may take for granted as a dev.
Disagreeing for the sake of disagreeing makes u a ****. Disagreeing on principle makes u a respectable ****. Or somewhere along those lines.
The line needs to be drawn somewhere I suppose. Don't lose sight of questioning what u should though. This country is going to the ****ter bc we as a whole have allowed it to happen.
Well, I better end this here before I end up being the **** of your apology thread for starting a debate on China being our daddy.

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

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?

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?

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.
My experiences with this phone are bitter sweet for the most part. Any bad taste Ive had with this device has without a doubt been brought on by myself or indirectly by a thread Ive read that developes, or should I say continues a "Will this", or "Can I" theme for the length of the thread. Not the devices fault or mine but it does bitter things for me
I must say that I have 2, this is the third posting, total in XDA for me, and I have flashed safe to say almost everything in the ATT LGOG portion of this portal. Nightlys, I will say every other release of Everyone that devs this device. Ive been inconvenienced a time or two by havin to reflash wipe flash install blah blah from bad file upload downloads. setups I can almost do with eyes closed, those get old. I have a point I wanna make and Ill get to it in a bit.Ive lgnpst this phone a hundred times and Ive even had the mispleasure once of having to send my phone to those wonderful bastards at mobile tech videos for a JTAG. Hells core kernel and a good buzz on made that necessary. If I woulda not been such a FLASH crackhead as I am with anything like this, and just read pages initialy, it probably wouldn't have helped anyways cuz Im like that
Heres how it goes; dev works tirelessly, life has its priority, but love for dev gets it done, DEV posts new thread introducing his offerings and any findings to further the DEV of his offering. questions questions KUDOs Kudos , u the man tytyty. thread starts to turn into something useful from postbacks on breaks and things that work and don't work, ETC.... Rom stabilizes further. How it LOOKS and appears; half of this community has entitlement issues and a problem with using GOOGLE SEARCH. U want something outta this then offer something other than 200 pages of questions about **** that OP has already posted and answered and fixed, for me to scroll through to find my solution. U DEVS (most) are overworked and get little return other than patts on the back and the semi-occasional paypal donations I guarantee arent the motivating factor for your part in this.
I have 3 posts people and 2 of them were questioning community and not DEV.
I promise I have had more downtime from this phone than 85 to 90 percent of you from overzealous under educated leap without looking actions on my part. I have a sickness and cant help myself. that said, that sickness motivates me to figure it out for myself and GOOGLE info that IS available. People that do google also end up havin to comb pages of peoples posts that could have searched for them selves but WONT. cuz its easier, lazy.
If you dont understand what Im saying then u didnt read and you are terminaly doomed to be that way. Which, in turn becomes my problem again eventually.
People who get it , GET IT! the reason I feel i have to rant is annoying to me, but thats my mood at the moment. annoyed and loosing faith in the common mans common sense. I have common sense, choose not too engage it at key moments, but I dont not use it at someone elses expense.
TY 4 letting me post my mumbleings, and enduring my incorrect sentence structures, punctuation, grammar, and most of all to the people that matter and contribute by not contributing garbage
Thank You! :good::highfive:
I'm sorry you just now are starting to lose faith in the common man's common sense. Human intelligence is on a bell curve with an iq of 100 being the median. 65 and below is retarded, 25 and below is a vegetable. That should let you know that half of folks are below average intelligence. Remember this when you see something retarded online or in your real life, and learn to gloss over the cornucopia of retardation that litters the Internet and the regular world.
