Petition for Source - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717

While this directly relates to the gs2, we own Samsung phones and this is incredibly important for the open source community. Pulser_g2 (mod) created it and codeworkx(CM) supports it too.

The XDA thread is closed but the petition is still open and has not reached its goal.
So we should still sign it at:
Petition Samsung for Code

Roger that.

It's in post # 2886. I misunderstood at first and thought you were referring to the thing about their goal to get servers. See post # 2886 in the thread.

Fascinate system dump available

http://www.androidcentral.com/verizon-samsung-fascinate-ringtones-wallpaper
We got hold of it over at Android Central, figured you guys might like a head start.
Enjoy
Someone needs to download this ASAP!!
Looking through the jupiter.xml file shows that Samsung is still using the www.spirent-lcs.com SUPL server setting. How long will it take for them to realize that it does not exist.
STICKY!
Can someone please STICKY this thread? I can't count how many times I've linked people to the system dump because they deleted something they shouldn't have. It's starting to get annoying.
We need a cdma galaxy tab system dump. That email app is sick.

I apologize for that. Unfortunately, Motorola did not like the fact that I was helping their customers update the phones that they wouldn't, and after the C&D letters were ignored they had my entire 4-Shared account removed.
tl,dr; -- motorola's fault.

No, All my systems dumps, for just about every device released were deleted when Motorola had my account closed. The Fascinate dump was one of them.
Ah, I see. My bad, man

and now we know why I don't own a Droid X...
Too bad users of other manufacturers devices got caught in Motorola's crossfire. The OG Droid enthusiast community pretty much single handedly saved Motorola's phone division and just over a year later this is how they repay their loyal fans?
What's worse is it looks like HTC might follow Motos lead. Let's hope not. I'm happy with my Fascinate for now, but want to have other choices from other manufacturers that aren't pure evil. Thus far Samsung has been more incompetent than evil (reference to them posting kernel source that won't compile)
EDIT: Sorry for my rant. I'm a former Motorola fanboi dealing with abandonment issues.

How do I obtain proprietary files from my device?

Hi there,
Im trying to compile an AOSP build. My device (toshiba Thrive) has Honeycomb and there is no source for it, hence there is no public GIT with a device tree or source of any kind rather than the kernel source.
Question is, how can I add my device to the lunch menu if I don't have any files to put in there? Also, if I compile for a different device, i.e. Xoom since it had Tegra2 support built in, what are the chances of porting that just by swapping bins, libs, etc files, and so on?
I'm guessing that the kernel is compiled during the process based on those proprietary files..... correct?

Ok, let's all take a visit to chill-town. If you don't like the thread, just ignore it. This isn't a snark contest, and no one wins a cupie doll.
And to the OP, it's best not to bump your own thread. Just be patient.

You are required by law to keep it open source. Have you tried reading any of the guides? Where are you at? Posting a link to source without any details only works when you are offering something, not asking for help. Need more information, such as what the problems are that you are facing.

A request of transparency to Mods

If I am breaking the forum rules by posting this, I am sorry, and if it gets me banned, so be it. But I think that Stock with Goodies users deserve an explanation from the MODs as to why the thread has been closed and what were the results of the findings. Its sad when a forum dedicated mostly to the "open sourceness" of Android becomes so closed source as to black out the discovery process in a truth finding expedition and to censor without jurisprudence.
12. Using the work of others.
If you are developing something that is based on the work of another Member, you MUST first seek their permission, and you must give credit to the member whose work you used. If a dispute occurs about who developed / created a piece of work, first try to settle the matter by private message and NOT in open forum. If this fails then you may contact a moderator with clear evidence that the work was created by you.
Convincing evidence will result in copied work being removed. If there is no clear evidence you created the work then in the spirit of sharing all work will remain posted on the forums.
These rules apply to all software posted on XDA unless that software comes with a license that waives these rules.
These are the posted XDA rules. So where is the convincing evidence? It seems to me there is no clear evidence so the thread should have never been closed. Mods feel free to explain to everyone exactly why the thread got locked. This is ridiculous. UNLOCK STOCK W/GOODIES!!!!
I wonder if flex even received a pm before his thread was locked?

It was not directed at you but to the mods. It seems they want everyone else to follow the rules except for themselves because they should have gone over the evidence first before locking any threads.

Just asking. I'm "out of the loop" as far as the details of the drama because I've been running primarily cm10. I assumed it was due in part to you not wanting to share how you did it. Thanks for clearing that up.
The mods have the files in question and can compare the with the files that were allegedly plagiarized (sorry I don't use slang). Hopefully a thorough investigation is done to determine if anything was copied and findings get posted. That is the least that we can hope for and deserve as members of the XDA Developers Forum. If no copying was done, then Stock with Goodies thread should be reopened :good:
If there was no communication with flex or a chance to refute the accusation b4 his thread (which is one of the most popular roms here, even b4 all this) was closed that's a little crazy..I know some of the mods are new here but I'm sure some if the senior mods are involved as well..I guess we shall see how it pans out..sucks tho if the multitasking was fixed ...bc that's the one thing I was waiting for and we could all benefit from it..and btw I've used v6 supercharger and it did not alleviate my mt issues . That dev rubbed me the wrong way...we don't know what really happened but still gives him no right to behave in that manner ....talking about are you gonna give me your donations..is.that what this boils down to? I hope it gets worked out .
To the mods: any word on the findings?
Ok.
Hi.
It's common to lock a thread during an investigation, so yes thread was locked. PM doesn't have to be sent before hand it can be sent afterwards. It's an investigation. We aren't just taking anyone's word on anything. If you don't like that we are investigating it, then we can just delete the whole thing at whomever's request.
We aren't being douche bags we are doing our due diligence, quit complaining about it. It won't get any of you any where.

Its being discussed guys. details will not be shared out here as that does nothing but create more drama than needed.
I can assure you that both parties involved will get fair treatment in this by who ever is handling it, and that everything will be thoroughly looked at before a ultimate final decision is made.
So until that time can we refrain from the bickering and complaining and just trust that it is being looked into. note that we dont have 24hr free time to deal with these things so they get looked into as we can, so please give us time.....but still also remember there will not be some kind of announcement when something is final as that is only for the parties involved to know. We dont make it our business to spread their business out in public when we can help it.
Sarge I trust u will be fair in your involvement in this..I also appreciate you treating the members here who are just curious as to what happened without being condescending or name calling ..funny how we are held.to certain standards while others aren't ...

all the mods here are on the same page and same goal man. no one better than the other and everyone working just as hard as the other, I can promise you that.

weird page load on touchpad in webOS only here

can someone please explain why I can't view the web pages here JUST on this site with the touchpad in webOS unless I stop the page 3/4 of loading fully...if I let it load fully it then loads a blank white page! Very frustrating.
Yeah noticed that as well. So it just hastened my decision to install CM 9. Might see if changing the website theme to an older version helps.

XDA has no control or tracking over downloads, since they are only linked from here; they are hosted somewhere else.

Your age does not matter. The point of the 10 posts is to force new members to read the rules, show that they can provide useful help, and learn to be useful members of the community. No one wants the dev threads cluttered. We all went through the 10 post restriction and expect new users to do the same. In fact, posting 10 nonsensical posts does not endear you to other users when you do need help.
You were warned by a user. You disregarded it. You were then warned by a mod. I advise that you now spend some time reading and learning about what is expected of users here before posting (hopefully more helpful information) next time.
