Glad you go it sorted but why would they charge you $799 with no tax for a device that is $599?
Also, why is this in the Note II section?

I guess some folks missed the OP's point. He was explaining that the BBB can be an asset if you can't get anywhere with Verizon. Next thing you know, he's getting slammed for his writing style. I don't get it...

For the most part, if I didn't include the Tapatalk signature, you'd never know I was posting from my phone. People need to stop being so lazy and actually use proper punctuation and such when using their phone or tablet. Hell, you could use voice typing to do a better job with punctuation than what is in the OP, how much lazier can you get than posting without typing? All you do is make it hard for everyone to read what is there, especially if you're reading a paragraph that long on a phone with poor punctuation.
Call me a **** if you want, but if you want me to take you seriously, post so that I can read it.

Which is a $699 phone from VZW. Where did they get the $799 figure from?

Chk Chk... BOOM. Done with it, eh imnuts? Agreed, though. Jesus, some of us read through these forums for countless hours, and it is/gets really annoying and hard on the eyes.

I was enjoying the N2 section of this forum as it seemed like a higher caliber group than some of the other sections. I assumed it was because there were more adult business type folks using the N2. Apparently I was wrong. But then again, I think I saw a thread here for donations for the guy so he could get a N2 and develope for it. You'd think he'd be busy developing.

Come on, who cares if he/she wants to write a certain way. This community is turning into sh** because somebody always has some smart ass comment or wants to downgrade somebody. Sorry if the OP did not fit your requirements to post a helpful response but you simply just don't have to comment. This type of crap is why I rarely even post anymore. Treat people how you would like to be treated. Point Blank! This community has turned into people with very LARGE ego's that want attention. Well look... You got it! :good:

Say what you want about grammar and how unimportant it is.
I say, take a little pride in how you speak. People will judge you by it in this world and anyone who thinks otherwise is fooling themselves.
Grammar doesn't have to be perfect, but you also don't have to use a 500-word run-on sentence.
If you know poor grammar, slang, capitals, etc. bothers people and you keep doing it...that tells me that you have no respect for others.
Would you speak like that in public? Most mature people would look down on it too.
Yes, it is irritating when people speak up about poor grammar, but take it as an opportunity to improve yourself instead of treating it like an insult.

I feel ya. I have been lit up numerous times for missing a few .... or ,,,, . I can see if its horrible to read. But sometimes the Grammer police gotta chill a bit.

My rant

I do not know what certain peoples issues are, maybe little man complex or internet tough guy thing but it is friggin ridiculous. A noob posts a question and out of 30 responses he gets one that is an answer. You guys need to chill and I am willing to bet 99% of you would cower in person.
I am a family man with kids so you insecure people do not phase me, but it is downgrading the quality of xda and that is proven by less visits and posts by devs.
To those with patience and a desire to help noobs and others thank you. Mag,freeza,myn,empire,virus,leo and tons of others, thank you for your part in making this site bearable between the immature losers.
I am done with this topic now and will leave it to the bad ass guys to flame away. And by the way, I wonder how many of those smart asses have developed anything lately? Maybe they have, I haven't looked but just a thought.

Honestly, I wish mod's would just instantly delete any smart ass comments immediately. We are all here for the same reason, to learn more and how to mod our phones. I remember when I joined several years ago, there were no flames, and people helped out without posting something pointless like use the search button. We were all noobs once, and needed to be steered in the right direction.

True, but that's not always a valid excuse. Some quality contributors/dev's on XDA are only teenagers themselves. So there is always a flipside to the coin. That being said, it does feel like we need a yard duty at times. lol

I made a comment to a certain member on here yesterday. One who always tries to belittle the person that made a mistake. I get tired of seeing that ****. I'm usually an easy going guy right out the gate. But that **** really gets under my skin. Why be a **** about it?? Just help and point or show him the right way. In the 2 paragraphs he wrote, it was all useless, instead of helping the guy out in less amount of space and energy. Felt good to know I had a lot of members behind me on that tho. There is hope!

I try to help where I can. I "troll" the q&a and general sections to answer where I can and help as much as possible. But in certain circumstances I have been know to be an ass at times and also post pictures to laugh at as well. While I see most here as normal people just looking for answers there are a select few that honestly need to further their education by returning to middle school and attempting to finish all twelve grades. Meaning u do get tired of seeing a select few that have no common sense nor do they attempt to fix any problems themselves. They would rather have someone do it for them and it gets tiring. Thise people r usually ruder than the people giving them a hard time to begin with. Sorry just my opinion

i try to stay away from post like these, but occasionally get sucked in.. i feel part of the problem here in 3D land, is that most of us come from different phones. meaning here on XDA we are coming from a different part of the forum. I came from the heroC boards, and everyone there was always helpful, if someone asked a question that had been asked before, yeah they may have gotten harrassed a little bit, but they got their answer. i think that everyone deserves the respect of an answer, but i also believe that you should put back into the community what you get out of it. for a community to grow, the community has to lead as an example for new members. give them the answer, but say i got this by using search, thats not outlandish.. and there isnt any problem with having fun either, you just have to know your boundaries, some people take it all a little too far.

Nothing wrong with getting excited, just be sure to read ALL the info and compare the version

It happens to the best of us on occasion for different reasons, I've seen the excitement issue pop its head up before. But at least you manned up.
Same thing happened in one of the razr threads a while back, and the guy had too much pride to admit he was wrong. So he tried to carry in this obviously lie that he was the one person in the world who got ICS pushed OTA to his phone. That was a different case, you made an honest mistake. I respect your apology and don't think anyone will be too hard on you unless they just want to find an easy target to be a dickhead towards.

Some people on here (not naming names) don't like any humor and like to police the threads like they were mods. Again this is the "General Thread" and I didn't see any harm in what was said.

Yes, stating ones opinion is indeed, "policing."
Re: no its not. That's dumb.
I saw the humor just fine. Allow me to reiterate: jokes can in fact, be bad. I thought it was a poorly executed joke. Get over it. Not everyone needs to agree and just because someone disagrees with you, doesn't mean you need to start making posts that attack others.

The thing is we feel you are the who likes to attack and are rude in your comments. Like I tried to say in a earlier post to you, but you will never understand it. The one thing is you do offer a lot of help to people with some of your replies, just stop trying to be the moderator. That is for someone else to do.

Ok so I almost got banned.... Thank god I live in the amaze forums

Ok so while I was browsing the s3 forums and found a revolution thread (for those that don't know revolution is also adjust reviewers etc)
So he this is how the convo went..
R=Revolution/Reviewers
E: Me
R: k guys I will make a new Rom with a new samsung base but I will do it without a kitchen
E:how are you going to build off a new base without a kitchen or linux
R: dude get out of my thread blah blah you follow me everywere blah blah
E: I don't follow you anywhere I'm just curious. I'm also warning these people cause you put out Roms that are 90% broken, and you chased away like 5-10 devs from xda
R-omg bro that is 100% bullsh&@% I know more than what I did before
E: you are quick to be offended, I was just asking a question about development, if what I said was a lie than why get all angry
Then boom I got a pm from a mod saying that I would get penalized next time I do that
He also said that he expected more from an RC
Well excuse my French but I was being fair besides all I said was the truth
Also mods you could close this wenever, I just wanted to be heard

I don't think you were doing anything wrong. You didn't say anything to him that was against the rules. So there is no need for you to be pentalized.

Honestly man, you should have just not commented in his thread. I understand the desire to warn people about him, but its honestly not worth arguing with him or anyone else about what he does. If he bricks someones phone, thats on them. We all know the risks involved when it comes to modifying our phones.
Not saying you did something wrong, but in the long run you'll realize its just not worth the hassle to say anything at all, regardless the reason. He's not a dev and he's not going to give you an educated answer like a dev can anyways. Just continue to work on the amaze like you've been doing and let the s3 forum figure out on their own who he is...

Smh, that's just bull. Just keep away E, not worth getting banned over.
sent from a galaxy you'll never see.
I've also seen him in the htc one s, and man some of the stuff he says like he knows more stuff about s off but he can't say anything bc the ones working on it wouldn't like that, he got everyone all hyped up and on his good side and also managed to piss others off. I just laughed he still the same old

I would have dropped the ban hammer on you in a heartbeat, then I would have whacked you with an ugly stick.
But then again, that MIGHT be why I'm not a mod.
Since I am old, and you are young, and us old people are supposed to say things full of wisdom and $h**.. don't stoop to his level. Plus, you can't argue with someone that may have less IQ than the number of cheerios on your spoon in the morning.
Just sayin'.
There was a saying I heard not too long ago it goes something like:
"You can't argue with an idiot, they'll drag you down to their level and beat you with experience"
Don't let other people stop you from the great work you're doing here Eclipze. We all appreciate it very much.
Oh and to Silent, every time I have a question to something and do a search you are usually the one who posted the answer. Thanks man!

Well, just to clarify somethng Eclipse...A Mod can not ban anyone. Only Senior Mods have the power to ban you. With that said, a ban is an absolute last resort, unless it involves spamming, pirating, or another serious offense. If you were threatened with a ban for that, you could complin about that Mod. We as Mods also have a code to follow. Being heavy handed, or aggressive is frowned upon. You should have received a friendly PM, politely asking you to refrain from that. I've never had a problem with you, and I think it was overkill. Not how I would ha r handled it.

I had no idea he was here too. We had the "pleasure" of having him on the sidekick forums and youre right, all his **** was half-baked and yet he got to walk around like he owned the place. He definitely has a mod in his pocket, he got all kinds of people leaving the sk forums and he single handedly killed the device. The one or two real devs there bailed cause they got tired of his talking down to other people acting like he was gods gift to developing.
It makes me kind of angry that he has/is poisoning so many forums with his nonsense.

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.
I agree with you... But this thread is getting locked in 3-2-1 BOOM!

So there is no thread for *****ing so I am making myself one. I absolutely hate to no end that a couple of douchefags can ruin a good thing for everyone. One such big douchebag is that retard Luke666. How can he go in and start *****ing to a good dev like DSB who is doing so much good work for little to nothing or free. I am absolutely pissed of the outcome of the situation but I respect DSB's decision to move away from the jumpsuit and hope one day he can change his mind. I am from the rezound forums which had so much bull**** go on. I wish everyone that wants to run thier mouth would just scream at theirselfs in the mirror or bang their head on a door frame its all just BS but ok then we cant all get what we want. If a mod can close this thread as not to cause I flame war it would be great I just needed to get this off my chest. I hope everyone, well everyone but Luke667 had a Merry Christmas and has a Happy New Year

And this comment makes you better than Luke 666 or Luke 667 or Luke1333? This is the issue with xda members. If you don't have something good to help the situation out don't say anything. Name calling isn't the answer.

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.

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.
