I would like to make a request to the community.
We, as a community really need to shape-up. This place is absolutely crazy. There are harmless threads that turn into spam and people complaining about aosp. The fact is we need to stop this. All of you know you hate this too but stooping down to the level of these trolls only makes things worse.
What we really need is for the mod team to really come down hard on this place. Not just the trolls but everyone. Everyone has a role in this.
People need to be infracted or banned or whatever and these threads need to be sent to the damn trash.
This isn't just a job for the mods either. Users need to stop feeding the fire that trolls start.
We need to take the initiative to shape up before this community goes down as the one that scared everyone off and died. Seriously think about it...
I've been wondering why people aren't banned.

Seriously people need to get banned at least temporarily.
It's pretty simple, really. Ignore them, report them, they will go away.

I use Nilsp's ROM exclusively, so I don't get into many other threads. His thread is relatively clean, with very few people asking questions answered in the first page...and absolutely no sniping at all.

Mikion and Chef Holmes have both been temporarily disabled I think. They both flamed the hell out of all Joelz's threads.
I don't get what the dispute is between XDA and The MikMik. They're both resources for Android development so it makes no sense? If it were Android vs iOS, maybe I'd understand more but this is lunacy.
Developers such as Newt and Scott both frequent both sites and share their work on both so what's the big deal?

The mods are still around. I posted a farewell thread the other day and decided to change the title of the OP and tell everyone about it (sorry about that by the ways guys).
Now that thread has been completely removed, so they're definitely still active...
The ironic part about it, is that I'm still on the Rezound forums even though I bought a Nexus (I still own my Rezound though so I guess I'm allowed - no more trolling, I swear).

Yep, and every time someone tries to bring up the xda drama the mods/admins tell everyone to stop. They are definitely taking the high road for the most part.
My opinion, we need to just stop already. These threads are just giving validity to our reputation. We all just need to relax, be respectful to each other, and show some appreciation for the work that the devs do for us for free.
As for the dev on dev public fighting - this just needs to not be tolerated. Period. Either take it to PM, or just shrug your shoulders and say "meh" and keep on keeping on. The only thing the public fighting does is get the rest of the community fired up and then the bashing amongst the devs fans starts. I think the public dev fighting is what really tarnishes this community. Their are always *****y, ungrateful, douchebags within the normal every day users. Everyone just needs to ignore them and let the mod team handle it.
My .02 cents of course.

For example, I guess Shift from TeamWin was chosen by toastcfh to give thread support for his CM7 Alpha drop.
Fine. Bring it. Offer thread support.
That thread blew up, of course, and every user on there was basically GUSHING thanks and love and yadayada for the actual release.
But then Shift retweets this?????
"Sick of posting things on XDA. Bunch of ungrateful pricks as userbase."
I mean, that's just not cool. In fact, the more I think about it, the more I know I'm gonna say something to him. Dude had no reason to be like that.

i agree with both of you.. it always seemed like you could tell when a new crop of users got on, because ignorant demands would increase, but lately it seemed as if it was 10 fold, and some of the users that have been faithful to the community and helped out all along got caught in the crossfire, which is unfortunate.. most of the people that i have seen complain about mods are people who deserve to be moderated, people who barely have any posts who just troll, flame and are generally annoying to everyone.. i have seen some of the faithful complain but those are the ones that got caught in the crossfire, and deserve to complain..
i also agree with the derogatory remarks that have been made about XDA in general, i have seen other devs make similar comments.. now dont get me wrong, i get it.. i totally understand dealing with high maintenance douchebags who demand demand demand, but do absolutely nothing in return.. and then flame because the battery doesnt look right.. but you will have to deal with that everywhere in life, its up to us to make the community better, thats why its a community.. rootzwiki will be just as bad one day when it becomes as big as XDA, because all the ignorance will just go there.. it happens..

Hello everyone. This is my first time starting a thread on XDA-forums.
While I hate ranting, I am noticing a trend of ROMs being approved by developers in the i777 development forum. While having such approvals assure ROM enthusiasts that the ROM they are downloading is "stable," I believe it causes confusion and tension. Instead of having ROMs be approved by a developer, ROM enthusiasts should flash ROMs they find interest in and report on its stability and so on. What ultimately determines popularity of a ROM is attending to people's needs in a ROM and attentive feedback from developers. I am by no means a developer (yet) but, I just feel this trend is unnecessary. How do you guys feel about this? Am I just being a prissy ***** about this?
What? People are free to flash whatever rom they choose. Even different Developers will try a different developers rom to get a feel for it or to try something new.
I'm pretty sure that's what the roms poll thread is.
sent from my Shostock Sgh-I777 running siyah!
Personally I think it clutters the name, but I really don't care enough.
Just flash what you like, ignore what is approved since most of it is just for ****s & giggles.
the approval thing is just for fun, I do not thing anybody is going to try a rom just cuz is approved or not by a developer, unless you are a real noob which in that case you should not be flashing roms without doing some research first. Best thing to do is to try all the roms available in the developer section and stay with the one you like the most.

Considering that the presidential races are starting to heat up, I'm guessing more political ads are starting to show up and people are joking about it.

dsb9938 does some great work. As a (non-Android) developer myself, I know how frustrating it can be when software issues arise, especially when you have ungrateful users that feel like they are entitled to a piece of software that is developed for free by someone in their spare time that asks for nothing in return. It's disgusting. This is why we can't have nice things.
I hope that dsb9938 decides to come back. We need people like him to help unlock our devices full potential. Screw the whiners. Let them be drown in their own misery.

kids who read GPL and think they are owed, and DESERVE something. people like DSB do it in his free time, and people expect paid support.
that is what this is.
All i have to say about all of this is. Anyone should be able to say there opinion. That is in a good way. If you are just writing a post to piss someone off i believe that you should be banned from the forums. No ifs, and's, or buts.
It is ridiculous anyone would grip about a mod that clearly starts off with the phrase "I am in no way responsible..." I haven't even switched from the stock rom just because I want things to work. If I was willing to explore and felt like reloading my setup to switch roms, I wouldn't *****. It is to be expected. When a new rom is released, I wait to see what the issues (if any) are before I would attempt a re-flash.
There are good devs on this board but I have seen quite a few of them get chased away by whiners and complainers. Hell, I am still using a rom from Roebeet on my GTab who used to be here but left for the same reason. He actually started his own website to build roms. It is a hobby, not a job. Don't expect stuff and you will not be disappointed.
Just remember, a lot of these whiners are the new generation who will be running this country in a few years and making it suck for all of us.
So I just picked up my replacement DNA last night and it just hit me. How am I going to unlock and root without the unsecured kernel? Or anybody else for that matter. This is bigger than first imagined if only very early adopters have root. Wow this sucks bad.

While Luke's comments weren't "productive" , they also were not rude or ban worthy. While I enjoy dsb's work, he has a bad attitude in general and I thought it was disrespectful as well as made him look like a giant cry baby for saying he'd never release anything else because Luke asked him to have some accountability for the fact he messed up on his latest kernel, 2.3.1 which was rebooting everybodies phones. Luke may have gone about it the wrong way, but I believe he felt as I did. Felt that dsb was ignoring the fact that there was something seriously wrong with his latest kernel. Dsb had incinuated that it wasn't his kernel that made everbodies phones lock up and reboot, but it was "problems with the phone, even on stock". Nobody minds if you make a mistake and your work directly messes up phones. At least take responsibility and admit you were wrong so you can start working on a fix. Also dsb was frequently rude to commentors who did nothing wrong or acted flip towards them. This behavior is simply unacceptable especially for a recognised developer. Recognized developers represent xda and they should carry themselves with respect for others and themselves while posting on the forums, even if others don't always.
To the OP of this thread. Grow up.

So I just picked up my replacement DNA last night and it just hit me. How am I going to unlock and root without the unsecured kernel? Or anybody else for that matter. This is bigger than first imagined if only very early adopters have root. Wow this sucks bad.

You can still do all those things. I followed the cube kernal from day one and to me the luke guy is being made a villian here. don't know him, don't care to know him. but DSB was very sarcastic to him on the forums. that's when they both started talking crap. either way it sucks and hope he decides to return. i used all the kernals he made and ended up sticking with the unsecured. but swipe to unlock was great. unless you've read the entire cube thread don't jump to judge.
Luke *****ed about every build and he kept egging on the dev every chance he could. As noted in another thread about this, Luke was rude to the moderators too so it's not just DSB.

Luke definitely is missing a filter. Again for me this isn't about Luke's actions but Dsb's. Dsb will constantly run into lukes everywhere in life. Not just on the forums. My advice to dsb is to work on his forbearance for others.
Hi everyone I ASSUME everyone here has seen we have jelly bean as of today. I want to thank the devs who work on it but one man stands out here and that is chad. While other devs have moved on to other devices other projects he stuck with us and proved to be a gift to everyone here. For the past year this guy has made everything ICS, AOSP, and now Jelly Bean (yes I'm aware they are the same) possible the guy is a machine and seriously deserves respect from this community. From what i understand this thing isn't quite ready 100%. Chad released this on good will that we understand AS A COMMUNITY recognize this is still a work in progress and that over time just as it was for ICS things will be ironed out. Work that said Chad has polietly asked we keep his threads clean and we keep bug reporting to the rom thread you use. Do not I will say again
DO NOT BOTHER CHAD WITH ANY BUG REPORTS STICK TO ROM THREADS.
I say this because I wholly respect what he has and is doing for us and hope to keep chad here as a dev for awhile his dedication and skills surpass any Dev I have ever had the pleasure of using their work. He will over time fix things i know and trust him on his word. So People of the Rezound community I emplore you to follow this rule, and allow Chad to do what he has to do.
KEEP HIS THREADS CLEAN AND DO NOT DO NOT DO NOT PM HIM ABOUT UPDATES BUGS OR HOW YOUR CAMERA DOESN'T WORK SO YOU MISSED YOUR BABIES FIRST STEPS. IT'S NOT HIS PROBLEM.
YOU AS A FLASHER HAVE TAKEN FULL RESPONSIBILITY FOR WHAT YOU DO TO YOUR PHONE.
WITH THAT SAID. I love this phone, this community, and our devs, we all continue to contribute and build on a user experience like no other phone. And if we show patience and understanding here im sure chad will reward us in the future as will the other devs. We all need him here so show your respect to him by following this threads guidelines.
SORRY FOR THE LONG THREADS. I just love android and this place I have said my peace if anyone feels this is an unnecessary thread or post pm me I will gladly remove it but i felt this was important and should even be a sticky. I hope this didnt insult or upset offend anyone just lookin out for my community.

If Chad had allowed posting cm10 builds publicly from the start, then I never would have learned what I learned about android.
Even though builds are now floating around publicly, it's still a great idea to compile it yourself!
Not sure if the warning was necessary but I wholly agree. Don't bother Chad.
its good news for all of us rezound users,thanx CHAD

I guess it shouldn't say warning I just want to make sure people understand we need to respect chad and since many don't read before they flash maybe this could help get the word out about how we need to approach jelly bean bug reporting

There are a few guides in the dev section that are fairly easy to follow. That's how I learned to compile. Its written for Cm9 but all you have to do is change which repo you are synching and build. You should honestly try it out. Its a really rewarding feeling.

I don't feel these threads help at all. You basically just rephrased what chad himself said, but you said it with RANDOM CAPS everywhere.

I just don't think it was really necessary to threaten everyone.
If there is a problem, Chad will defend himself.

Again not a threat sorry if it came off that way. I'll take it down asap. Didn't want to offend anybody and don't want to ruin my own reputation here. My apologies to chad and the community

Thanks for being cool about it grey you always do a good job keeping this place in order I'll rework the op thanks for understanding. Most forums would have blown up about it. I keep seeing people say this place is out of order and genuinely don't see it?

I'm not a moderator, so I don't clean the place.
I have grown up a lot on this forum, so I just try to pop some common sense in if I can. There is no reason to blow up about something simple on a forum.

At least in public it gets you an annoying TV show
I just noticed that another dev has left over a bunch of bull. I don't understand this forum for this device. I have had this phone for just under a month and seems like devs drop it right and left. I may get dropped from this site for speaking my opinion, but I find this place gets more childish as time goes on. I think it is great we have moderation, but there's a point when it goes over board. I'm seeing more and more devs not even posting there work here. Shame a great site is going down so quikly.

Not sure of what happened exactly, but on any forum, the mods are the ones responsible for keeping everyone in check. With that being said, I think that we have too few mods here, because it looks like things got out of hand way before the mods closed the thread or really did anything.
More mods means that someone might have been able to calm everyone down, or at least punish the offending party satisfactorily. There should never be a thread closed for something as great as the Devs make here because of some jackoff who ruins it for everyone.
I know that the mods can't be everywhere all the time....but maybe a few more wouldn't hurt.
Just something to think about.
Edit: fee to few*
What dev moved on ?

Not really involved in any thing just fed up with the politics of things. I see and agree where he is coming from! While I hope he changes his mind and continues to put out his work for the jewel, I completely support him!

+1. I feel worse, because I was flashing stuff and I didn't get the updated PAC before it disappeared. I hope the next phone I get is something he'll be working on. Also blows because I was looking forward to the FirefoxOS that he had in the works.
I know he's not the only good dev, but he -was- a good one.
Listen he left to go dev for the note 2 which is the device he just picked up.
Everyone needs to stop with the drama.
By that I mean each dev is free to do as they please and go where they want. This garbage last night was just that and it will be dropped as of this post
Mazda's threads are set up correctly and credited correctly. He is GPL compliant and there are no issues
Jamie's comments last night...while having a little merit should have been dealt with in private and not brought into a public forum.
Unless you have the whole story between these two devs (which 99.999% of u do not) then I'd recommend minding ur business and not starting more issues or taking sides as its not ur place nor do u have any idea what your talking about.
Feel free to contact me via pm if u wish to ask me questions...if I don't answer then that means its none of ur business.
