Lets get this done!
With S-off we can get rid of Tampered, in the bootloader, and much more.
Rules for the bounty:
Only pledge if you plan on paying
Only pledge unconditionally, that means no "I will pay if we get S-OFF by thursday of next week" kind of pledges.
S-OFF method should be easily repeatable by the average user, and not require a soldering iron or a degree in engineering to complete
Lets GO!

I don't see a problem with a bounty..
It may motivate a developer to put forth the extra effort and get it done.
Developers on XDA generally don't get much in donations and they do have to put up with a TON of self-entitled users..
I don't care about s-off because I generally don't even bother to root my phones anymore but I can see where users may really want this and offering up a small amount is just their way of saying thanks to the developer.

This is one of the hottest device out there. Bountys are usually for unsupported devices that developers need that extra motivation to start working on them. Getting S-off on this beast will be an accomplishment that gets a certain developer all the press from XDA and Techy web sites that he needs.
With that said I pledge $10

So, I just bought a "new" Galaxy nexus on ebay. So, What should I do with my rezound? Sell it, or hold it? I obviously I am jumping the gun a little, I have yet to receive it. I probably wont see it until next weekend. I know technologically it is inferior, however it has a much much larger development community.
Even when the ril is working, there will be other hurdles that need to be crossed. After ICS source comes out for the rezound I may regret my new purchase.

ROTFL, my feelings exactly........
Yeah, I opened this thread prematurely. I was too excited. I figure when I get home from work on Saturday it will be here. I will test it for a few days and decide then.
I'm moderately new to the XDA world and I have a few questions that I decided to ask in my own thread, as to follow rules of courtesy: Does anyone know the expected release date of Joelz's latest ROM? I believe it is supposed to be Charmander? Secondly, does anyone know if developers will be able to replicate "Google Now" from Jelly Bean and incorporate it future ROMs (I imagine that it isn't beyond the capabilities of the Rezound)? Finally, will the Rezound be able to realize "Near-Beam" technology to transfer data?
First rule of XDA don't ask for ETA's on ROMs, they get released when they get released and its considered bad etiquette to ask.
Devs are already working on Google Now and again refer to the first rule as to if and when it will be ready.
Near beam needs an NFC chip which the Rezound does not have so no you will not see it here any time soon.
Joelz is on hiatus, so no eta in the near future. Believe me, you will hear about it if/when he returns to developing. I have no answers for your other 2 questions. Enjoy XDA.

Didn't the xda community donate that rezound to him? I think he should donate that rezound to another dev instead of selling it for profit.

Nothing. Just makes me lose more respect if that is possible. All that time he kept telling us to donate rezounds to team bamf and then he goes around and instead of doing so himself, sells the rezound to cushion his own pocket.

I used to be such a crackflasher back in the inc days when development was booming
But now I couldn't care less, I tried the gnex to see if that would bring it back but there's no excitement in that forum. this phone has so much potential, but no one wants to step up to the plate and bring out the beast in this phone
I pretty much just gave up on it.

Who cares if he sells it? He worked hard on alot of roms while he had it. There are many great roms that hes released, that im sure alot of you have used. He deserves the money. Let him do what he wants. I don't blame him and everyone else for leaving, I would too if I could afford a full price phone. Just needed to get that out.

I would hardly call the nexus a piece of crap phone I honestly wish I never sold it and kept it. And on the second topic I believe he met his quota and when you donate something that doesn't mean you or anybody else has any say in what is done with it. It's a donation which is from the kindness of the hearts of the users. Yes it is expected that they do some work (which he did) but that doesn't mean they have to do anything with it. It's not a loan it's a donation.

You miss my point entirely.
Look at it this way. I ask you to donate to charity XYZ. I keep asking you to donate to them, talk about how awesome they are, etc. You donate and make cut backs toake the donations. The kicker is when it comes time for me to donate what they need, I dont. I use that money for myself and what I want and forget the charity. That'd make you happy right? I talk you into doing it but I won't even think twice about it.
Someone spends the telling us to donate to a certain dev team, but when it comes time for him too, he doesn't.
Two sided.
Had he never asked like crazy for this to happen, honestly wouldn't have cared...

Ladies and Gents, it's that time again. It has been brought to my attention that Mazda of Team D.I.R.T. has been dev'ing blind for our phones. He has been very active on the other EVO Forums. Can we once again band together and hook this man up? Clean or dirty ESN shouldn't matter. I hope I am not stepping on anyone's toes or causing any issues creating this thread. I sent Mazda a message letting him know that I wanted to create this thread and he was more than nice. So what do say guys? Can we get him an LTE?

I'll gladly update OP with the names of the donors. Amount donated will be omitted because anything helps! Please refrain from bringing negative comments or drama to this thread. If you can donate, you are amazing, if not that is ok too!
Touchwiz-esque ROM on my EVO? Yes please.
put me in for $5 (i'm quite short on cash right now) lol
Thanks brother link is now posted for that donation!
Just an example of what this man can do!
woot woot, team D.I.R.T making your evo dirty.
THANKS jsufx, this is really something that's new to me so I don't know how all of this goes BUT whatever is cheaper would work for me!
I would say a BAD ESN LTE would do just fine for me BUT whatever you guys decide, is cool with me!
THANKS GUYS!!!
So, uh, put me down for $30?

thats really strict! here in pa you really only get busted if your in either of these situations.
1. you buy a cheap and loud exhaust for your car and its super loud
2. your a redneck and you cut your cat off of your exhaust system and put a glass pack in its place. <---- lots of this in Pa
3. if you decide to have underglow turned on while vehicle is moving.

As far as I've heard if you bought your phone on contract you have to get your carriers permission no matter if the contract is up or not. I have also heard if you buy your phone used, from eBay ect. You can unlock without permission.
