http://www.xda-developers.com/andro...lletin-please-help-ryan-scott-chiefzreloaded/
i dun want any discussion... mods can lock this thread bt do read and help ur bit. many of us do earn and spend .. probably we can just skip out our 1 fun moment to help the developer.....
thanks .. nothing more ...

Necrotizing fascitis is one of the worse diseases where the bacteria eats up body tissue
He needs help...he is one among us... He has contributed to the xda community and its our time to return back... He is a father of two and a husband... Donate if possible and if u cant u can pray from him...

Look there are millions of people in world needing help and are in much worse condition.
There are also much people in same situation then why to donate to developer and not to others.
So to help some kid in Africa he need to build custom rom for SGSIII?!?
Sometimes I am really surprised.
"I did not want to offend anyone"

Probably u haven't read what he is suffering from or what is family is going through...
We cant help the whole world.. Bt we surely can help the one who is among us..3 yrs he spend for android development... And is now struggling to live... His family thriving to pay the medical bills... I have shared it everywhere.. On my fb page.. On others' pages, on gplus and I will keep on sharing this no matter people call me sick or moron... That would b my part of contribution..

Thank u
I also asked one of the head xda official to make his help post a sticky for few days.... So that it gets maximum exposure and subsequent help... I knw he wont agree bt I feel if he agrees it would boost the donation money.... the developer was a cm maintainer... One member of our xda community.... And I feel so help less... Will donate through my dad's card and will ask my friends too..
Thanks percy

There is nothing worse than seeing ur body parts getting rotten and eaten by something u cant even see by naked eyes..
When one has no money to buy medications to prevent his dreaded disease from spreading further... No money to run family... No money for kids... And no money to keep oneself alive..
U r a thinker xperianpro.. Think abt it..

You guys are not aware,so after this every sick people will go here and ask for money to get cured?
I had donated for almost everyone.
Even for this guy.
But this doesn't matter.
Anyway how expensive medication is I mean,Americans are richest people in world how they do not have money for something like this.
In my country with is 10x poorer no one gets diseases like (I mean my grandmas mum lived for 110 years) that even medication and doctors are in most cases free.
I'm not sure what Americans eat thought but most not be healthy if hospitals and medication is paid.
If think about it food factories poison food,medical companies make expensive medicines,people gets sick and buy medicine.
Its magic circle and even American Authorities are helping by ejecting unhealthy things into atmosphere.
I mean how corrupt their country can be?

Appreciation fund for developers

Changing to my appreciation/donation fund. I know I'm new here, and want to contribute where I can. That being said I want to contribute to the Developer(s) that get the phone root for us. In appreciation.
I know I could wait for HTC (if they) unlock it. But let's face it, we want it now and who knows if/when HTC will come through.
Again this is to express appreciation to the dev's. And duce this will buy you a few gallons of haagen dazs
If I'm out of line here then a mod can delete this, otherwise I'll start by and will keep a tally updated:
w9sig - 25.00

Anyways, Bounties always help drive developers to root things faster, Sounds cool to me.
1: Wrong section (this itself isn't development)
2: Bounties suck. Give someone a few bucks for helping you out if they're working on it. Don't hold money over their heads and tell them they can only have it if they drop their lives to give the public something that they're working on in their spare time.
Personally I think bounties just tend to start fights about who contributed what... hard to pay a bounty when 3 or 5 or 10 people contributed.
That said... I won't stop you from trying...

No they don't we don't expect them to "drop there lives" its just a bounty to raise money for the devs to show our appreciation and to reaffirm that all their hardwork will pat off besides rooting the evo out me down for five bucks

My reasoning is the same as what Haus said. If you offer a bounty, people stop sharing information and try to get it done first and quickest because they know that only the person that gives the answer will get the money.
Example:
If I were to offer $500 to the first person to answer 50 specific questions... Do you think anyone would answer a post that said "Hey what's the answer to number 7?" Everyone would want to keep to themselves and not help anyone else.
Obviously this is different, but that's a more extreme idea to get the point out there.
If you feel like someone is working hard, or has worked hard... Donate a few dollars to them to give them something for their time. I really don't like the idea of bounties because it then puts pressure on people to keep going and ignore other things, as only one person will get the big bounty (if people actually even pay what they said they would).
Holy... I think I just saw Stericson. This phone is bringing people from everywhere!
BANG! from my shooter...

fair enough, you got me lol down with this fund
Of course I'm not opposed to giving some loot to those that deserve it though. I need to talk to the wife to decide how much I can give up to Haus (and probably others, he isn't the only one I've taken notice of) for his work. I'm sure we'll get root soon, so I'm not worried about forking over some money now to let him know I appreciate the hard work.
I'm pretty sure we didn't need a bounty for this phone to get rooted.

No, I'm not happy to see you, that's a Shooter in my pocket.
Yea, I got a 3D

{dev donation} help netarchy get a evo 3d

I wanted to help net get a 3d so he can work on making a bomb kernel for our Phones once we get root! Because we will get root eventually! Anywhozle please state your donation and stay true to it, anything will help.... he said himself he will try to work on it. When I asked if he wanted the help in getting the fone, he modestly replied:
netarchy: "ticklemepinks, that's a loaded question heh, I won't turn it down, but I'm not going to solicit people about it either. if I get the phone, I'll work on it is about all I will say in that regard"
Price: $469.99 (AMAZON PRICE i've been told)
Donations (6/30/11): $200 (WOW IN 2 DAYS, Gr8 guys Keep it coming!!!!!)
CLICK HERE TO DONATE AND CHECK GOAL STATUS TOO
http://netarchyevo3d.chipin.com/evo-3d
Since We are ROOTED NOW donate what you can, ANything Helps!!!! ))))
netarchy said:
I've edited a previous post of mine on the first page, but I'm going to repost it here as well in case anyone misses it.

Since this thread has apparently been relocated, and the issues I raised with the original approach the OP took have been fixed, I can confirm that any donations going through the chipin link in the original posters post are indeed being directed at me for the purposes of raising funds to acquire an Evo 3D.
If the community sees fit to buy me the phone, I will be happy to develop for it, but I will not promise unrealistic miracles.
I can't promise that you'll suddenly win the lottery, or have better luck in life.
I can promise that any android device I own will get development time from me (yes that includes kernel development).
You should not feel obligated in any way to participate. The fact is, even if I don't get the phone, there is inevitably going to be a strong development community behind this phone. A good portion of teamwin have the phone, and given the strong sales it's a safe bet that there will be many other developers as well. Any participation in the OP fundraiser should be considered completely voluntary; I will not solicit anyone in this regard.

The way you've got this at the moment does not look particularly good; there's no way for anyone to know what the total raised is, etc.
Also, this is probably in the wrong forum.

Netarchy do you even want the 3D?
If you do then awesome and can't wait.
Why $549? you can get them new for $450 off CL or from me or from ebay so why $549?
What's with all the hate for this idea?
Net is one of my favorite developers and I can only WISH he would join the 3D family.
And how is this against the rules? This is done in every other phone section.. whats wrong with being here??
This forum is getting duller by the post.

I do not care if they do this i just see no reason to raise $549.00 when you can get the same thing for $400 to $450 elsewhere.
The op just did it wrong i think is why many are upset because no way to track how much and my reason why $549? that is sprints over priced price not what you can get them for.
Id use 1 of my upgrades and sell it for $425 bingo saved 100$ already.See what i mean by the op? he just did it wrong is all.

Isn't netarchy on tmob with a nexus s?
I admit that I groaned when I saw this thread but I have to say that I applaud the idea. Maybe a better method could be suggested? I have no idea what that is though. I know this has been done in the past but, to be honest, I've never paid much attention to "donation" threads.
I would be happy to donate $$ to get netarchy this phone. Not just to get him to root it, but for all he's given to this community!
sent my $5. i know it isnt much, but every lil bit helps
wait would he be coming over from Verizon? sprint gives 125 for jumping carriers and the 3VO is only 200 on new plans...they might even buy his old/other phone from him....im not sure if they will from another carrier but they bought my evo 4g back from me for 150. Phone only cost me 50 bucks.

....Bounty for Tablet S?

First off, Yes, I am very aware that this thread exists in the developer section.
I can't post there though as new members need 10 posts to write there.
I made this XDA account so I can contribute to the pool of money that's going. I can't imagine how long it would take me to actually answer 10 questions that aren't already answered on this site, so I'm hoping there's another way around it.
...It seems like the bounty page should be under general anyways though. I hope the moderators read this before deleting this thread into the firey bowels of internet hell.
Thanks
Fair point. At times the bounty thread is drifting in and out of being used as the development/progress thread quite confusing. But they are all just trying to help us get the device rooted so I'm not complaining! .
If you would like to pledge an amount as a comment here I'll quote it in the thread for you if you like.
Thank you very much Capn Dread Pirate.
Slap me down for $1.48CDN.
LOL, Just kidding. Can you imagine? Actually I'll go $25. Right in the meaty part of the curve.
....Mmmmmmm Meat curve. Goes well with sweet root access.
I'm waiting for the root too.
But in the case where the ICS update fix the exploit, i think we should just wait the release before asking hard word to the dev.
Let's be honest, chalenge + 900$, i think we're gone make it happen
(waiting for my 10th post too for adding some beer to the pledge)
What about the 2011 xperia lineup (arc, neo, kyno) any chance sony cook up a similar rom/bootloader ? Freexperia may save our souls ...
It'd be good if Sony allowed us to unlock the bootloader once the ICS update is out.

If everyone just pirated games, all we'd have left are games packed with ads or **shudder**
...facebook games!
Hopefully we can get the sony tab rooted so we can delete social feed reader and personal space, not pilfer things from people who deserve that money. Show developers support and buy their products please
If everyone pirated games, there'd be no games to pirate! Why would a dev continue to make games for a device when it's users are ungrateful little brats that just steal from them?
This is why the itunes app store dominates android market.
Can't post in the dev forum yet.
Just sent the donation to Dan for the root.
Going to try the root tonight.
Now the waiting game is for a custom ROM !!!
Heh, Dan must be piling in the cash now, huh?
He seems very modest about it too.. credit to him.
Well I hope everyone who pledged money will actually donate. I'm super broke right now but it would be hypocritical of me not to donate right away so I did, and I'm very grateful!
Ill be donating my $80 on sunday australia time, keep an eye out unclespoon

Who is the culprit here? Someone must have said something. Man up and apologize to him immediately. He's one of the best themers/ modders on this site and it will be so sad without him. Please everyone, show your support for this great guy who has been making mods for us since day one. Show some damn appreciation and thank him. Send a donation if you can.

as ive said we didn't need to loose any devs. xda is still pretty busy for the rezound. look at rootzwiki, no one posts there.
Well that sucks.

I think he specifically said in his mods thread that it had nothing to do with lack of thanks/appreciation.
Mike D's themes were legit. Seeing what he was able to do has pushed me into learning how to theme roms
IM sure he will be back one day...
He is just working more hours... If he got more donations for his work I am sure he could cut back on his hours.
But no one ever donates to the guy!

Well donations are optional plus times are tough. I know ive thanked the guy plenty. Hope he comes back one day.
perhaps I'll start doing small things in his place. I'm not good enough to do total themes but I can certainly decompile/recompile,edit png colors and switch font color hex codes in the xmls

Sure, they are optional, but people start getting demanding and the money helps put up with the idiots. I think the enjoyment starts to go away.
I always donate to those whose work I consistently use. But then I also buy apps.
There's a reason why devs want to dev for iphone even though there are more android phones out there. Android users tend to be cheapskates who would rather steal an app than pay for it.
cant blame the community . this one is the same as others. i know someone who was working on bamf rezound in the beginning said hed stop cause of the "community" and he did . we're not THAT bad, but quitting cause of that is kinda lame- though i do understand in away .

Yes you do, thank you!
And yes the second part of that statement tends to be true. Users forget that Dev's are people with real lives and real responsibilities and that Android Dev'ing, for the most, of us is just a hobby like collecting Stamps or baseball cards. They seem to think that because we make cool things we are some giant company with the resources of many when in fact we are only one person trying to bring some fun to your device. But anyways.. You know that already and I am grateful for your support!
I don't know about the iPhone thing though. I couldn't deal with it if I had to. I love Android. Never really liked Apple. Hahaha

honestly, I would still be on wp7 if verizon had one with lte and a bigger screen. Really enjoyed my hd7. Spent more time using my phone. Tinkering with it is fun, but didn't miss it jumping from winmo to wp7. Used to build my own roms back then, but haven't had the time to really dive into what makes android tick.
Ok I'll fess up. It was silverxbv2 who did it.
Hahaha

One word. CIRCLEJERK.
I'm new to SXS forums, having come from X8 about a month or so, so i don't know you that much... However, from what I can tell is you are one of the few insightful and knoweledgable members about Xperia and Android in general, on this sub-forum. Trolls, whiners, bashers are everywhere and we should not let them be the cause of quality posters leaving. I understand your frustration but hope you reconsider.

I like the way you actually spelled pretty much all of that correctly. It's 'knowledgeable' though, without an E before the first L and with an E after a G. But anyway, that's me being a grammar nazi. I hope to see you in my humble work-in-progress sanity corner on Rootz.

allready added the xperia s wikirootz page to my bookmarks :good:
I for one will miss your input here K900 if you decide to keep your distance from xda.
I'd just like to say thanks for your work here, and also I hope you will reconsider your envolvement with this forum.
Don't let em grind you down bud
K900,
I have not been the mod for this forum for long but you have stood out to me in my daily activities here. You always appear to be quite helpfull and knowledgeable in many areas of the xperia and android in general. If there is something or someone that has led to your decision to leave xda I want you to know that my pm box is always open and I would be glad to speak with you on a personal level regarding any problems you are having here. If not I wish all the best in your future endeavours. You will be missed.
Best Regards
Eddie

I guess it's just the people here turning every single thread into a circlejerk and generally ignoring the good side. I'm kind of affiliated with Sony, so seeing all that pointless, baseless hate directed at the awesome developers there who seriously care about you, yes, you there, the guy who just said he wants to get a GNex, just makes me cringe. I guess that's the general attitude around here, and that's how the internet works, but sometimes it's just over the top. There's also the real life stuff that needs taking care of, though that's not as important as I usually lurk at night anyway. I'm not really leaving XDA completely, just trying to keep my distance from the horrible cluster**** that's called 'Xperia S General'. Thanks for the kind words
Also, you guys are awesome just for managing to keep this forum in a state that generally makes sense. If I had the banhammer (don't give it to me), I would've probably gone all out yandere and ban everyone attacking Sony.

Announcing departure from forums is incredibly pretentious.
But you knew that, you silly goose!

Couldn't agree more.. sometimes this whole internet hate thing gets way out of proportion..
Anyway, such a shame loosing a good member like K900.
Hope to see you around again man :good:

Damn man.
I'm not a guy that say's a lot on xda read alot thought...not people a follow just to gain knowledge about stuff ' that matter" and give me advantage controling a device...
I saw the same thing when I followed some guy over at x10 forum that left to another side aswel, because of the hate that walked through the forum.
Its a shame that the love for this device that brought people together is going to be saperated by the 1 thing we will never can controle....thats people comming to [email protected]#(()ck things up...by forcing every thread to go from sharing to battling over..different phones...
For me its a shame another goed guy is going away.....hope to see you at that site....does it has a forum with tapatalk?
I just hope for you that those haters wont follow you there....been happening. Before...
Tnx for what you conributed to this forum

Hi,
I understand your decision, bacause I wanted to make the same one.
but for now i am working on some projects, so i won't keave yet, but if XDA is not going to change I will leave too
Unfortunately I have been seeing the quality of the posts going down since I joined. Saw it in the Desire forum and now more and more here. Only the Flyer is still good as the community is so small
I have an idea though. The OP of each thread in the dev section should be able to give a strike to anyone who posts in his thread that is negative or unconstructive to his thread. If a user gets 3 total strikes on his account he is suspended for 1 month. Repeat offenders can be longer. At least this would keep the dev section clean and not piss off all of the developers so they decide to leave. If a moderator thinks something like this is possible I think it would improve the quality of the forum for everyone.
