The Rezound is getting so much love these days by devs, it's really making it hard to decide which ROM to use as my daily driver. I come from a gnex, and it was all the same rehashed stuff. Didn't even have OTA updates on those Roms.
Talk about the come back kid! Couldn't be happier to be in this community, and for good reason. We have awesome devs who work hard, and an amazing device. At least on vzw, it really is the one of the strongest devices, and I think people are finally realizing that.
I just wanted to throw that out there, and I hope some devs read this and realize just how much we appreciate you choosing to support this phone.
Thank you

Yeah right after Google IO everyone was like "MUST. HAVE. JELLY. BEAN." and a lot of guys left for the nexus.
1 month later, the devs are pumping out awesome ROMs.
I suspect many phones have dry spells.
I figured it would pass....it really is a burden being right all the time!
Seriously though, the devs here are fantastic.

I was in an ill mood last night after work. I didn't realize it until after I made the post.
I don't mean to be a jerk, but it seems I came off that way. I don't mean to make others follow my views, I just want some civility and respect for each other.
For those thinking I am here trolling because I don't even have a Rezound... I do have one, got it on the penny sale, I just haven't got around to changing my sig. Got a bit lazy about that.
Apology accepted!
Thanks,

I think you were right. People don't have patience.
After going through 5 different 4g devices LG Revo, Tbolt, 3 Bionics before get a working one the Rezound I wasn't mad and was rewarded in the end. So I can wait forever for s-off or custom roms, so people just need to learn patience. Even if this phone doesn't get I'm happy.

I have to agree, After using my own CleanTOOL 2.1.1 I am pretty happy wit the device as is. Of crouse I am dying for the ability to showcase my ROM building skills but... I cna hold tight unitl someone figures it out. I got plenty of other cool devices to play with in the meantime....

People mistook my other thread, but is isn't their fault as they do not know me personally and my personality. It can be hard to get some things across in type.
The other thread was very tongue in cheek, a sense of false anger to stress my frustrations at the state of affairs.
I was in a bit more foul mood last night though, normally I would not have started a whole new thread.
Hey man, we're all a bit frustrated because we're used to devices that are readily-rooted and can do whatever we wish with them. However, times are changing and technology is becoming more advanced, such as the case with HTC's new bootloader on the Rezound. If we have a few good dev's working on it that haven't cracked it yet, then it's definitely locked up pretty well.
And I understand the frustration you had regarding the whiners. Yes, I need root just as bad as anyone else, but it's the raw potential of this phone ONCE s-off comes that makes me hold on to it and not return it.

It's nice to see people taking responsibility for what they put on here. Everyone has an opinion that they are entitled to. Bashing others for not sharing the same opinion is childish. I came from the Thunderbolt and that forum got bad enough I just left. It's good to see most people here are grown ups.
I am excited to see what the awesome devs that are working on this phone are going to cook up for us. If we could all show them appreciation for the unpaid time they spend for our enjoyment, they may want to spend more time looking for that elusive S-Off solution.
They work hard for hardly anything. Some kind words of encouragement and appreciation will go a long way. They will also see this as more of a community than a hood with graffiti and tags on every wall.
Thank you for reading if you got this far.

If I want others respect and to be respectful then I must do the same. That means admitting my mistakes.
I work aviation and had to fix other people's screw ups last night (and last several days) and screw ups in the aviation world are a big deal, so I take it seriously. When one person is a cause of many problems I get irked... Combine that with the fact my Internet was down all night and tethering was acting up so I had to use the phone to get online... Just a storm of irritation that caused me to use poor judgements.

I'm sure this has been noticed and asked prior to this post. We all read the phenomenon in these threads and posts.
Question: Does it seem like some of the best Developers are leaving and moving their work to their own or core group based sites?
Why?
just concerned since I can count more than a few who've left, for whatever reason, in the last 6 months...

Drama I guess. I'm kinda bummed that my old og Evo is more popular for development than my 3d. I thought most would move to the new phone.
It is what it is pimpin. Some leave and some stay. Our forum went through a crazy phase of children being stupid and a little growing pain. But I think we're mostly over that.
But your question has been asked countless times. A quick search would have brought you up to speed.

Did quick search it. Seems to me that either you are in or not. With our phone being difficult to get the basics functional, the practice of running off the guys that move development forward is slowing progress to a crawl.

I know I personally stopped participating in getting on people who harass the devs or intentionally start drama because the mods say that it's not the communities job to do that. It's theirs. But, it is what it is. I'll still be on this phone until my contract is up. Which is a long time, so most of us aren't going anywhere.

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.

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.
I was wondering what do you guys think i should upgrade to I'm coming from the incredible 2 which had great dev support. I was gonna get the DNA because of the specs and i've played with it in the store and i loved it! But i'm worried there won't be many roms for it which is why i was thinking about getting the S3 instead.

This dev community has helped to create a bright future for Verizon's Note II and I can't wait to see what else they have in store!

I definitely don't complain about things I can't do myself. My thought to the ETA guys is "if you want it done so fast then do it yourself" I think the team working on the note are some of the best out there...I mean this thing has been out 3 weeks and beanstown106 has already kicked out like 3 ROMs. I mean these guys could punch out roms faster but theyd be buggy as crap. Personally if im putting my name on something its gonna be right. Its crazy. We are just scratching the surface of the dev/mod potential of this phone I think. This is my first Sammy and I'm so glad I made the jump.
I've been following this community since the day it was posted on xda. I've been following everything going on and even donated here and there. I've read and studied every single page lol. I won't be getting my note till after Christmas, but it's okay I feel like a Odin pro by now. Lol. I too wan to shout out a HUGE Thanks. These devs deserve every bit of it.
