The original poster posted an accessory in the accessory thread.
Nothing wrong with that whatsoever, but you flamed him for it. Why?

This is a thread, new opened in the Topaz accessories-section.
If everybody opens a new thread for an article he found on ebay it's gonna be a mess here...
Sorry, even me, I don't want to flame people for this. I just want the forum is more clear and simpler to search for something, for the ones who want to, like me and probably you.
I'm sure you also see the difference between now and two years ago...
Because of your comments I have consulted a mod to look what I'm doing wrong... Answer was clear: nothing. He just said it is a "losing battle". I gonna do it all a little calmer, to prevent comments like yours, so no more need to correct me everywhere...
Well, then you should also ask a Mod about what the purpose of the accessory forum is.
And let's face it, your threads are just as pointless as the ones you are attempting to correct.
You do nothing to try to help, that's why I sent you the LMGTFU link, because it gives them the answer while also teaching them that they could have found it in a search- without bad mouthing the member!
Also, you troll the forums to increase your post count, but you are NO senior member. You too are a noob or would already know that you are using bad forum etiquette.
We are a diverse community from all over the world and it is not some place to go around causing bad feelings for everyone.
We have a saying in the US;
"You attract more bees with honey than vinegar" This means when you are nice, people will listen to you more than if you are rude.
You have been rude.
Yes, its annoying when people don't search and read, but you will NEVER win that battle.
Teach, don't correct.
I'm done.

I see they're only shipping within the US. Has anyone found a store that ships international for a low price? Cause I don't
For anyone how was still wondering: I found the headset on ebay.
Very nice price and international shipping: http://bit.ly/7PCbmZ
I bought this one and works well.

No, it doesn't have volume control. And yes that does kinda suck.
But it's okay and it it's really worth buying!
i bought the one that agent.m was talking about, absolutely great,
and the clarity of the mic is actually really good too. The only problem is that the buttons only work for windows media player.... and not sense whiich i have running,
i know its probs off topic but anyone know how i could get it working with sense?

Can you be my hero?
I thought maybe it was just the Vibrant section.. but the other phones I look over seem pretty slow also.
regarding the Vibrant, what gives? Why so slow on here?
The easy answer is people have moved on to new phones (and a lot have), but there are way too many Vibrants out there for XDA to be THIS slow. Are there no more questions that need to be answered? Everyone working on the GB Source?

I don't think that there are no more questions to be answered, it's just that 99% of them already have been if people would be smart enough to search. If you look at development threads, pretty much all of them have the same questions in it and when a new thread is posted, the questions in that thread are the ones that have been previously answered.
Then there are those idiots that complain about a rom being horribly laggy (reflash fix) or having horrible battery life while the rom has only been out for less than a day.
I don't want to see dev's leaving but I can certainly see why they would be going away, xda is full of idiots and trolls.
yeah, I know what you mean... I don't know that I would say it so harshly... but it seems like the Q&A and General sections have nothing new to offer lately... work is surprisingly slow today and I was hoping XDA would fill this void... it hasn't.

Yup, I think the previous people said it best. At this point, the Devs et al have really got this phone running sooo good there are not alot of issues to cry about. That, and the pending new phones that are beginning to get released, as well as, the tablets got people less focused on the Vibrant and some of the other phones that are 10 months old.
I got a color nook for my daughter and it is a blast to flash and mod, So alot of my flashing urge is satisfied with that.
I think alot of us are just waiting until June when the new S2 comes out, Then there will be this HUGE swell of interest again. But until that time, the vibrant and Galaxy phones are such a great phone to have it really is hard to complain.
I do agree alot of the kids/trolls have been griping more as of late, but I think that is because we have all been more silent. All in All, Love this Forum and all the people who contribute to it.

I've come dangerously close multiple times on picking up a Nook Color, is it a viable tablet on CM7?
I've been splitting my time between here and Team Whiskey forums....i still love XDA but trolls aren't allowed in T.W. house ...i think when we get our TW ROM devs come back then we'll see some goodness back in the Vibrant forums...until then we're getting over-ran with ROM ports and themes.
I really dislike the idea of each "team" having their own site...
It's great for them... but it really hurts the "community!"
All of us could spend time navigating each of their site, and creating logins for each one... but it's just so nice to have EVERYTHING in one space.
And those who do branch off, always seem to come back anyway.

True, but i think the teams go to their own homes b/c of the a**ho*es that do nothing but talk crap about their work without giving thanks...devs at are at their own forums can moderate can control the content themselves as they see fit....when this "Recognized Developer" thing (that XDA Admins have been working on) starts, then devs can control their releasing threads and keep trolling and unnecessary complaining to a minimum...s15 is right, everything should be all in one place...this is XDA, where all smartphone knowledge and MODs originate and come together
Just my opinion...

I think everyone knows I respect your work a LOT. I know whats going on around XDA, but not so much behind the scenes. Can you help explain why it seems like a necessity?
Maybe if I understood that part of it better.
Is it really boiling down to spam in the threads/dumb comments?

It really is frustrating a lot.
Most of the time, haters will refuse to register on your site so that's automatically a filter on it's own. Next you have complete power to do anything & everything with your site.
I really wish everyone could stay on XDA but it seems like the amount of dumb we get is increasing daily and it's like there's no way out of it.
Also, people tend to think you're a lot more "professional" if you have a site.
^ you da man. Makes sense, completely understand coming from your perspective.
The reason for the increase in "undesirables" is just in the numbers. The more android catches on the more total people are going to visit xda. That's includes all types. From the seasoned developer looking to learn about android to the person that knows nothing but wants to learn to the person that, no matter what, will not search out even the simplest answer to the out and out troll.
Its just that odds are we hear the most from the latter two as the first two are more apt to search for their answer and ask questions when they truly can't find the answer.
I'm no genius with this stuff but I will at least take the time to learn what the stuff I'm doing to my phone is and how to undo it or fix it if needed. There are more and more people that don't our won't.

ya I agree its been quiet here for the last few weeks. I running bi-winning and haven't found the need to switch. I'm thinking about picking up a Hd2 just to tinker with it. I'm having flash withdraws also my wife won't let me play with her Mytouch4g.
Hi. I have one! I am an Android noob, but would like to give back where I can. Living in the wilds of Palm for as long as I have any tidbits are valued. If anyone wants/needs this ROM please post me explicitly detailed instructions on how I can capture this ROM and post/submit it to whomever. I dunno if this is a unique device given the 32GB storage, but would like to help if it is.
Just purchased today in Taiwan.
GT-I9100
2.3.3
I9100XXKG1
2.6.35.7 I9100ZSKG2-CL361136
GINGERBREAD.ZSKG2
Anything else anyone wants?
i want your phone.
Oh I've been waaaaaaaaaiting for it so bad my spleen's swolled up!
That said, I can easily get more, and would be more than willing to send them to anyone who wants/needs one. It costs NT$22490, plus shipping to you plus maybe a bit for myself as it takes honky me longer to execute on the simplest things here in non-honky Taiwan. I had to pay NT$2300 last week to get on the waiting list to get a launch day (today 8/5) phone which was refunded, but I doubt that hurdle will be needed now. They had about 20 at the head office of the incumbent telco here in my 1,000,000 person city.

What about mine ? Ive just bought 64gb version with 5"screen and love it so much. Hehehe
this post should be in q&a or general?
Pls think twice before posting in the wrong section
I posted there too a little chattier since I thought I had a unique device here. But as I say in the OP I post here to know if any dev wants me to send them this ROM. It may not be valuable, but I felt I needed to ask. I'm sure it'll be moved or deleted if people above our pay grade deem it so. As for the sale thing, again, it might be a tool for a dev, my Palm ethos demands I try to give back. It was a much smaller community and the best dev lived in a country that didn't even have access to devices.

Okay I am speaking mainly to Developers/Devs here
To get all the information on this issue please visit my thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1421341
I know this may not be in the right place to post, but I have had no luck after over two months of my thread being replied to and also being all over the internet (Droidlife, GSMARENA, phandroid etc...) so I'm trying to spread the word to ftully Fix/Solve the SMS/texting issue (Not being able to send texts) so the HTC Rezound can be a fully global phone
The suggested possible causes of the issue are either a Radio related problem, which would require porting/making a hybrid radio and also S-OFF. But the main one I am thinking sounds more worth trying for is the suggestion that the Framework is incorrect/needs a bit of tweaking and this would allow the HTC Rezound to send texts/SMS on GSM and/or HSPA networks (I use HSPA)
So please could someone willing look into this and try and fix/solve as this would be very beneficial to us all (being able to use this phone abroad/on holiday for example )
Also some people, including me, cannot connect to DATA/3G without a method which makes it 'kick in', so if this issue was also looked at it would be Great!!!

Buddy, this isn't the right forum for this thread. I assume everyone who cares about this issue has seen your thread in the general forum. This is a Verizon phone. 99.9% of the people who own this phone are Verizon customers. There are very few people who care about this issue enough to do something about it. It is very unlikely that we are going to get S-Off as we can flash roms/kernels with what we have. Plus, the work that it would take to develop a hybrid radio would probably be significant.
That said. If everything except SMS works, how about just using email to SMS your friends or a free texting app? Yes, it is not ideal, but this phone is not meant to be used over anything aside from CDMA, EvDo, and LTE.

So what you're saying, Con, is that he in fact doesn't rule as his screen name would suggest? Hmm. My world...tumbling.
And to the OP, will Google Talk work overseas? Wouldn't that be the best way since SMS doesn't work? Just a thought.

And I said in the post if you read properly that the possible fix I would suggest Dev's to work on would be the Framework, NOT THE RADIO PROBLEM AS WE DON'T HAVE S-OFF

Google Talk is available outside of the USA, I know this because there are devs and mods that I converse with using talk that live outside the states.

Hey guys no offense or anything, but none of the founding guys at Team BAMF really gives a damn about anything anyone thinks. We are a group of friends who enjoy tinkering with stuff when time permits. We all have careers, hobbies, and most importantly families and lives.
What we do stand by is what we all think is the spirit of what Android represents. If Joelz or others loosely associated with Team BAMF did shady things as you suggest with phones/donations etc. then please show me. Too put it bluntly, we don't play that **** and neither does XDA. If that's the case, we will handle that real quick. We can't handle things we don't know about.
And the last thing.. I didn't read all the thread because to be honest it looked like a bunch of cry baby BS about five pages in, but not everyone wants 10000 of cherry picked features from the same three roms with a different name slapped on it. We don't operate on the premise that everyone will like us. People that have been around in the Android scene will know us and most likely have nice things to say. The ones that need their egos stroked and asses kissed will not. Regardless, BAMF's work is a hobby, and released only for the people who enjoy it, who we consider friends and fellow Android enthusiasts looking to stray away from the masses.
To the few in here defending, thanks for taking the time to get the facts. To the people here *****ing.. Feel free to carry on with your mindless bashing on an internet forum of people you don't even know, and who would most definitely put a boot in your ass in real life.. :good:
I'll bet we could still go into the rezound forum and dig up one of his old threads for pokemon rom and show where he was accused of putting out failed ROMs and agreeing be did. Probably can find the thread of him trying to sell it. Probably can show people complaining it was taking 2+months for updates. Probably can find the donatuon thread in the GS3 section that showed the protest overall this and him agreeing to not do that with the GS3 then to fail at releasing anything there.
See he lucks out as mods will protect him because he never asks for a donated device. Someone always comes in and praises him and says how great he is, he comes in and says he will do XYZ if he gets the phone and then tada phone given, a few failed releases and he is gone. He never actually breaks XDA rules but that doesn't mean he doesn't con people.
More than once he said he would do all kinds of things for said device he is going to get. He gets the device and then oh but he doesn't have time because of school. If he doesn't have time he should say so and not have people give him a phone.
Anyone who was with the GS3 from day 1 knows I did more for that device than Joelz ever has, and I didn't do much.

Youre damned right you did more than he did, and yes I was there from day 1.
Thats partially where my distaste for him comes from, and thereby my distaste for BAMF because by not acting it gave the impression that they could give a **** about Joelz actions, as if they could care less that he was doing all that. Not saying that's the case, just the impression I was given, and still have since he is still a member, by the whole situation. The reason I am given that impression mainly is because I dont know how they haven't heard of this situation before, I thought there was another member of BAMF that posted with fair frequency on the threads on the S3 but I cannot remember for the life of me what his name was and may be wrong, and I dont know how they havent caught wind of it because it was a huge issue on the S3 forums and from what I understood it was on the rezound forums too. I know people can get busy and not have time to do everything they want or need to and that a lot of BAMF doesnt come to XDA because of the drama, on the same hand though the reason a lot of people dislike BAMF and the reason I have a terrible impression of the team is because of Joelz actions and how he was never reprimanded.
I also was given the impression that Joelz had more than a loose connection by how he and other spoke about his position in the team, he always talked how he was so high up in the team and was backed up.

Agreed but the reason a lot of people have bad opinions, and the reason I am put off by BAMF, is because their first interactions with BAMF was thru Joelz and his actions made the rest of the team look bad when he wasn't reprimanded.
Not saying its right, the impression I have gotten from the OP and adrynalyne is excellent, but thats the way humans read situations. If someone froma group does wrong while using the name of the group and isn't reprimanded or thrown out it looks bad.
I am not flaming BAMF with this post or any of my others, just to explain the reasoning behind the distaste that was caused by Joelz bad actions while using the BAMF name.
BTW I thought I recognized you from the S3 forums when I moved to the N2 but wasn't sure. Nice to see another name I recognize here!

You don't care what I think? /me cries :crying:
I miss you guys from my Rezound. It was always my go to Rom. Glad to see BAMF on the Note.
I'm excited to see the note with team Bamf! I don't know joelz and the whole situation. I know the original members from the thunderbolt and the Samsung Omnia back in winmo days.

Im not quite understanding why people keep bring this up. Your beating a dead horse here! It has been a year since all the **** went down in the rezound forum, but yet it still keeps on coming up. I understand the animosity towards joelz in this forum, but quite honestly I couldnt give 2 ****s about it. Look, people donated, and he made a rom. Who is to say how many roms/updates are required to fulfill or payback for a donated device? As far as I know, there are no contacts here. I will say this, never in my day, has anyone come up to me and said "look, Ill buy you a welder if you do some work for me, and dont worry about a contact, I trust you." It doesnt work like that. I understand that majority of people on here are young and nieve to lifes bull****, but people need to move on and take this as a life lesson. I think mods should close down any donation threads on here to prevent any this from happening again. I like bamf, I think they put out a good product, as do the majority of the other devs on this forum. If joelz has done what everybody says he's done, it really shows his character and the mods should do something about it.

Do you make assumptions like that in real life? None of us are his keeper. We are all grown men. He has always had different devices than me or the others. Again, show me some of what you are talking about. If these things are true, they will be handled because we don't play that ****.

Yes I actually do, im a grown man also and if I have a group and catch even the remotest wind that someone in my group is giving it a bad name I would research it until I found out the truth. Thats the way it goes in the real world, if someone is a member of your group and they misrepresent it then that goves the whole group a bad name when there are no reprimands.
As for researching it I am leaving it up to nosympathy for the time because last timr this discussion got brought up he had the threads from all the devices save where the only one I know how to find is the S3 thread. And honestly I dont know if the mods have deleted all the evidence yet or not, the deleted quite a bit of it while the conversation was in its prime. If nosympathy cant or doesnt want to look it up again I will look through the XDA post and see if there is anything left after the mods edited it.

I agree with you about donation threads, they shoulsnt be allowed at all anymore on XDA thanks to all the bad **** thats happened.
As for him not being reprimanded, that is because the mods were on his side because technically he did not break XDAs rules, which need to be adjusted to move on with the times, on the subject and because one of them was a fan of Joelz.

LOL. Like someone said above, he was given a phone and made a ROM for it. Did he promise to keep developing stuff for it? Did he lead people on? How the f do I know? I don't look through all the device threads on XDA. Do you paruse the RAZR threads? I sure as hell don't. Same with any other device I don't freaking have. You telling us is catching "The remotest wind".. Whatever that is. I will find out though. And after all this BS, it better be true and not some prima donna BS from some bored XDA members.

No I dont monitor them all the time but as big as this was I find it hard to believe that word did not reach you. And the problem isnt that he stopped devlopment for the rom he made, the problem is is that he tricked people into donating because they wanted BAMF on their phones and then he never delivered. Thats not even the biggest issue, thats something thay happens every day that I overlook, the worst part was when he tried to sell the goddamned device before he had put out anything. All of that combined is what had and still have a few people up in arms, while it isnt against the entire BAMF team it definitely gives bad impressions. That was wiped off the thread as soon as it was posted though, I used to have a screen shot of that but after 5 or 6 HDD wipes it is long long gone. All of that combined is what had and still have a few people up in arms against Joelz, while it isnt against the entire BAMF team it definitely gives bad impressions.
As for him promising to keep developing for it, yes he did many many times.
What I have tried to say nicely is that I find it hard to believe that a lot of hardcore BAMF lovers that donsted didnt post or email or whatever someone on your website to get some of your attention. It may nit have happened but I still find it hard to believe. If I had any experience with BAMF before I would have emailed one of you immediately but as this was my first experience I had no clue about your website until way way later.

Nobody told us anything. That's why I find the whole thing far fetched. I just read the whole other thread about all this drama. Eris told you what the deal was. He's not a liar, and is a good friend. If he says Joel intentions were good and he did what he said he would do, then I have nothing further to add to the subject. None of us give a **** enough to lie. Show us something to the contrary about the situation and we can discuss further. Already wasted enough brain cells on these threads. Thanks for that.
So look, anyone who knows us, knows we update when we feel like it. It may take a week, it may take 4 months. Frankly, we don't care, because as Butch says, we do it for us. It's a happy bonus that we share with everyone else. Hell, Paradigm was 6 months late to the party on the Nexus, and it worked from day one there.
If you want to blame anyone for not having a ROM on the Rezound or the S3, you can blame me. I am the one that determines whether they are ready for prime time, and neither one is. Joel has worked his ass off, but hit a brick wall on a feature I deem rather important (in-call volume). That is literally the only thing that kept the S3 ROM from being released. And it's not for lack of trying, he just doesn't know C++(nor do I) well enough to fix the issues.
You don't believe he's still actively working on it? The proof is right there in front of you. His bitbucket handle is boss. You want a ROM so you can shut up about him stealing your damn donated phone? I'll build one tonight. And it will have broken in-call volume. Will that please everyone?
I mean really, Joelz is a good guy, but he's a kid. When I was his age I was trying to get drunk and laid, not build ROMs from hundreds of thousands of lines of indecipherable source code. Until you can build your own, how about everyone just stfu.

Ah so youre locking the thread so no one else can reply? Im still looking for unedited screenshots of the conversations seeing as how all the threads are heavily editited. But you dont care you want to call people out and then lock the thread because otherwise you look as bad as Joelz for not reprimanding him.
And you dont believe it when there are 2 people that have a huge problem in the N2 thread, go post in the d2vzw thread and see what happens. You'll get the normal crazies but there are a lot of people there still burnt.
And Eris said he found it hard to believe and Joelz had offered the phone to him for development. Not saying he is lying just that he wasnt there when it happened so how can he know?
And from what I can tell from just a little looking through the threads trying to find a screenshot I see something about Butch with BAMF pulling a bait and switch on the X2, would that happen to be you?
Edit:
It looks like you editied your comment about locking the thread out. Nice

Don't worry, im done talking to you. I was looking for proof until I came across that little tidbit about you on the X2, now I know no matter how much proof we show you you still wont do anything.

Forgive me, seeing as how it is not BAMF Paradigm that has been posted but pure AOSP. From what o understand Paradigm has a few of BAMFs tweak and mods in it and what Joelz put out to begin with was nothing but AOSP without BAMFs tweaks.

LOL. What because I decided blur was a horrible idea to mod, so by a show of hands we decided to contribute the device to CM so they could at least get those guys an AOSP ROM? You decide to "give up" on talking about it once Eris shows you proof. And to think I wasted time trying to understand your "problem." The problem is you. Don't worry, take your self serving holier than though attitude over to Rootzwiki with all the other cool teenagers. While you are at it put on your unicorn shirt, talk more ****, and contribute nothing to anything, which is apparent by a quick check of your profile.
