Sooner or later i know people will notice, so i felt it prudent to let people know here and now, before any rumors or anything else starts...
As you may, or may not, have noticed, Red5 is no longer on XDA, as both a mod and user. THIS WAS AT HIS REQUEST. We are VERY sad to see him go, but personal issues have come up, and his time is needed elsewhere. I wish him the best, and hope in the future he can rejoin us. AGAIN, i cannot stress enough that this was HIS choice; there was no problem otherwise..
In the meantime, I am still here (sorry guys, cannot get rid of me that easily), and will be coordinating with staff for his replacement.
Before anyone asks, i am sorry, i do not have any contact information that i can give out for him; somebody else might, but I do not. I wish him all the best, and i hope everyone joins me in that. I will leave this open for people to post farewells, but ANYTHING ELSE will be deleted without notice and with extreme prejudice.
Wow, hopefully everything is alright. Red was a great mod and is just a good person
In general. Good luck to you Red and hopefully we will see you back soon.

I really did notice that he wasn't posting anymore.. really sad to see him go. He was a really great mod with a dash of humor. I really wish him all the best in his endeavours and hopes as everyone else that he comes back to XDA once again.:crying:
He was a little harsh at first, but once you warm up to him he's pretty cool. I wish him the best of luck!
Looks like I'm going to angry text him.
PS- I'll take his position.

I have to say, i think the job is more difficult than many imagine, and I know he really threw himself at it. Aside from the thanks button, it is a thankless, never ending job (keep in mind, this was not his only forum), and it cna be really stressful. I think he did a great job here, and i hope his time away is good for him.
He will be missed.

root will come, same thing happened with the Rezound, htcdev worked at first (unofficially) then months later it was back officially.
same will happen with this phone IMO, AND S-OFF is being worked on already, the Rez took 6 months before S-OFF had interest

I wasn't going to say anything but this kinda annoyed me because it reminds me of the little babies that were running around the rezound forum...

Don't be afraid to speak up that goes for the the devs to... If you my being here bugs you that bad I'm all ears and if so ill be gone... And if it was not anyone from here that did it thats fine also I just don't want to waste my time here if im not wanted

I dont even have a DINC or Verizon in this matter, however, every place has trolls. You can't ever get rid of them. It's up to you if you want to dev or not. Nobody is forcing you. I like the smaller communities since you can get to know people and make more connections. I'm trying to find a way to "crack" HTCDev's method for unlock_code tokens. I want to do this to learn and to have fun. People will bash me, even though they are idiots. I just report them to a mod and the mod will handle it and keep them in check. Overall, do what you gotta do.

I don't even own this phone, I'm still on a Dinc, however I just voted the thread 5 stars, does it impact the difference of you dev for this phone or getting a used phone to dev on, it probably won't or shouldn't. I also sent the email, about the bootloader, and I spoke with VZ exceutive office about the locked bootloader, is that going to make a difference to VZ on unlocking it, probably not, but I did it for the group cause, because I would like to get this phone.
Honestly, it's guys that have the time and talent like yourself and other dev's that help make these phones what they are, if you aren't interested in this device, that's your decision too but I think 99.9% of us don't have the knowledge you do on these phones, so we greatly value your work, and would like to see you and others help us out, while we try to do what we can to help out.
I don't know what happened to the REZ forum, but I've heard it was a bunch of BS Drama, that I've never seen on the Dinc forum, maybe your burnt from that experience, don't know, but I wouldn't let a thread vote sway your opinion on this group here.
thankfully newt has an Inc4 and will be up and going once root comes.
Some people are so unappreciated of the hard work done by devs that it amazes me. If I had root on my phone, I'd gladly switch. I've enjoyed your work in the past, newt, and I look forward to the amazing things you'll be able to do with this phone once it's rooted.

Yep, I'm really impressed at how much the developers have accomplished in such a short amount of time since this device released! It's been like, what, a little over 2 weeks? Yet we already have root, an unlocked bootloader, a way to get back to factory stock, and a bunch of custom roms! 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!
For me this site the awesome work done by so many devs here is why I run an Android device, who wants a walled garden or a phone everyone else has when you can be as custom and crazy as you want to be. Thanks to all who make this a great community to be a part of.

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.

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.
Sent from my HTC6435LVW using Tapatalk 2
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.

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.
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.

+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.

(TBH, it was this thread that really cemented my purchase today, for some weird reason. I would rather 4 good devs and a handful of regular, respectable, polite and smart users, than 48 wannabe devs and 62k newbie troll entitled users in a section.)
See ya soon, Micmars!

It is awesome to see a member inspire people to write good things about him!
I am sure as soon as @micmar makes 9 months on his membership he will do the RC Committee proud!
Great work Micmar!

Honestly, this has really been a humbling read, and I've been reticent to respond, as I didn't know how to respond without appearing self-aggrandizing.
Everyone here is terrific, and I appreciate all of the kind input. It means a lot.

No homo bro...
I must admit that micmars is one of the main reasons I check for updates in threads in this forum -- I do thoroughly enjoy reading his posts.

Also on top of all the awesomeness that he brings with his helpful and often humorous responses, micmars also is a major contributor to many of the roms in this forum in multiple ways, including but not limited to supplying extra hosting space and any other support he can give.I truly believe he gives back to this community more than anyone could possible ask, and does more than even the best of devs for the community.
He makes this phone an exceptional experience for more people than anyone realizes.
I vote for an exception to be made to the 9 month rule.
Honestly a little tag by his name pales in comparison to the recognition he deserves nay, has earned, regardless of the amount of time he has been here.
Trust me you want @micmars around.
Every effort and exception should be made to gain and keep any user who has 1/10 his patience and ability/willingness to help others. Or honestly why are we doing this.
And if the cost is a little name change, to show that appreciation, how can you complain about that?
I know i have no real say or standing in the matter, though those are my feelings on it.
Once again and forever...
Thank you @micmars, for everything.

I've noticed this guy also. He is like water . Good thread
I agree whole heartedly with @mjcollum! I second the motion to forget about time period which is so miniscule in comparison to what he has given back to the community.

Mike is a definite beast. Couldn't be happier to have him on our side!
