Who else is sick and tired of looking for the next cool rom. It kinda drives me crazy looking for everything I want a nice put together rom that works well. I mean don't get me wrong who doesn't appreciate all the work that goes into putting a rom together, it seems like theirs always something going on to make u look for another. For example moon rom is an awesome rom but it will freeze where I have to take the battery out to reboot. Jedi rom is cool but u have to do alot of other flashing to get gps and the camera to work. All I'm saying is it gets a little frustrating. About a year ago I was super into Android I can name 50 different phones I had. That were all rooted and always looking for the next big rom. I got so sick of trying to find that never ending search for the perfect rom. I gave up and actually gave up and went to apple iphone 5. Never jail broke not really cause is not available to jailbreak but probably wouldn't have even if I could. Just cause I was so sick of running around trying to find the coolest rom. So how bout everyone else?

Not me.
On my Galaxy Nexus I was running Sourcery and never looked at another ROM.
On my Note 2 I have two favorite TW ROMs and two favorite AOSP ROMs.
That's all I need.
Not really tired and sick but I spend alot of time searching the threads looking for a new rom. I mainly stay on Tw but I always have a backup of Cm. Probably go between them once a week.

Nothing is ever going to be perfect. If it was, we probably wouldn't be looking for ROMs to flash in the first place!

I see this a lot, and I had the same problem with Jedi X 14 (13 was fine). The solution, as has been posted and that has worked for me, is to simply make sure you have a lock before you flash. No extra flashing. I can't speak to the camera problems as I have never had any.
I think perhaps a lot of the frustration comes from learning the idiosyncrasies of each "new operating system". From stock to a ROM to IOS to Windows to Linux to Mac OS, there's always a learning curve. I've gone, through various phones, from IOS to Sense to TW to vanilla android and back countless times. If you are constantly switching to find something "better", you're going to be constantly facing a learning curve. For some that's fun, for others it's annoying. For me personally, it can be both! :laugh:

Who else is sick and tired of life. It kinda drives me crazy looking for everything I want in life. I mean don't get me wrong who doesn't appreciate all the work people do in their life, it seems like theirs always something going on to make u live. For example the eskimo life is an awesome life but you freeze to death. The rich life is cool but you have to do a lot of things to have it. All I'm saying is it gets a little frustrating. About a year ago I was super into life I can name 50 different things i did. That were all fun and i was always lookin for the next big thing. I got so sick of trying to find that never ending search for the perfect life. I gave up and actually gave up and went to the hospital.

I think rom flashing is more of an addiction for me. Was perfectly happy with stock....then started the never ending Saga of rom flashing
The only Android phone I never installed any custom rom on was the Galaxy nexus gsm
That phone was awesome on stock.

I used Jelly 'Beans' ROM on my S3 and I use it on my Note 2. Instead of trying to find the whatever ROM made me the happiest, I went for whatever had the most stable build and most useful features and learned to live with anything I didn't like.
Remember, its just a phone. it won't ever do everything you want, but it will communicate with people. Be happy with that.

Boy, your just baiting the trolls and fanboys with this one but I can understand your point of view. I love Android because I get to spend my time looking into the different options that developers put into their ROMs. I think you may be coming off a little disrespectful to the work and time that some of these guys put into what they do... And I want to caution you on that, however you're right, for some devices there is a throng of options to choose from and it may be hard to understand what the real difference is from one developers work to another.
To me, I have developed a trust for developers based on the device OEM I am working with, for Samsung my goto developer is going to be Beans, Scott on HTC... and it's been so long for me on Moto... But to your point.... No I love the research and comparison that comes with all of these options. I have an appreciation for the work that the developers of our community offer to us for free with only the expectation of a donation. I respect the community of users that are always there when I screw something up to answer my questions. Mostly though, it is the fact that I can do so many different things with an Android device... Or choose not do anything to an Android device... that makes it the antithesis of 'sick' or 'tired'.
At the risk of sounding childish, or being viewed as trying to 'one-up' you, and in all seriousness, I genuinely mean this and hope you don't think I am trying to take a shot at you, but iOS is exactly what your answer is. There is no work required to make iOS work the way you want it to because it works the way Apple designed it to work. It is not perfect, and likewise, there is never going to be a perfect ROM for any device... There will never be a perfect device. Is just a matter of what you want. In this case you have what you want. In the great words of that lady who had her head chopped off by her King husband... Let them eat cake!!!

I get it and I think my post might have came off the wrong way. I mean no disrespect to any of the developers. I think all of the work is amazing. Having the first htc google touch smart phone and everything in between might have just burnt me out a little. Maybe just all the different roms mixed in with all the pretentious people just made me ask the question that I did. But ur reply was great and I agree with everything u wrote. Hope I dont waste anyones time.

From reading your post, this is how you come off to me.
Seems like no matter how a rom is, you will always complain that there is something wrong with it. If you think all of them have problems, learn how to make your own rom and solve your issue.
Also, if you left android for an iphone, you probably should have stayed with it. Normally posts like this are created by people that like iphones but don't like to openly admit it on xda. So in your position, sell the note2 and go get yourself an iphone so then you have no options except what case you should buy.

I have been a crack flasher since the days of old school windows mobile ppc 6600 i believe and have been using android since the og Moto Droid which really jumped it into gear. I was really happy with CM on that phone and when i had a droid2 i was locked down but was a fan of Liberty since they incorporated many of the cm features i liked but once cm7 was released officially that was it. I ended up using that rom on all future devices until I got my Gnex which Aokp took over for me and Team Eos for my Xoom which became my choices for those devices. Aokp is my rom of choice for the Gn2 since i like to support the original devs and their roms are always speedy, stable and has great features and they listened to their supporters and even incoporated S-Pen into the pure asop rom. I'm sure I will try out a few other roms but positive I will go back to what runs the best for speedwise, battery wise and stable which makes life easier.
Of course the option is to learn how to make a ROM and make one that you love

Are we all waiting on the GB fix? It is nice to have a phone and not have it flashed every other day but it makes me sad that we are at a standstill. Thank you devs for everything that you have done thus far and I look forward to trying out new things when everyone comes back! I just really wanted to say that I miss you all!
... There was an update on a GB rom today... I mean a new Kernel was just released and the radio was just posted yesturday... I am not sure what you are talking about I feel the devs are quite alive here still tickin'. I feel like this post is going to get flamed.
I know what he means, it just feels dead in here. There probably is more behind the scenes, but for us common folk it seems dead.
Yea. I feel ya man. It feels dead. I felt the same way but the radio and some rom update seems Alive bbut I only want the new and still waiting for bamf.. but finally saw pr3 so gonna jump on that boat.
sent from my........(rebooting)..... thunderbolt.
I'm seeing lots of new ROMs and some with accompanying radios. Yesterday I installed the Chingy MR2 radio and Gingeritis IX, and all works great, no reboots.
Right now I'm downloading Th3ory of Ginger and and Th3ory3.0CandyV3, and those came with an MR2 radio, so it looks like things are all clear now? I gotta get my flash fix !
Feel free to start learning how to write and hack code, otherwise wait patiently and quit posting threads asking even if it's in a way that tries to be polite .
Unless you've had experience in writing code, it's hard to understand why things take so long so just imagine you're given a huge pile of parts and only half the directions to put it together (given the half from android and missing the half from htc, which htc was also nice enough to put in a format you cant easily read without translating). Your family keeps asking you "are you done yet??? You say no, it'll be done when it's done. So yeah. Working on a sense based android phone is sort of like that in the best way I can give a metaphor in non technical terms.

It's okay to wonder, sure. However, dont you think someone would post something if there was something new in the developers forum? Developers might hate being asked when something will be out, but the one thing developers like to tell the world about is something new and shiny they just made.
Just from my experience, the only people that can really pester a developer about when something should be done are paying clients. Even those get annoying, because developers sort of have a pet peeve against giving a set deadline since things generally don't go according to plan, especially when you cant estimate the project scope for something like android.
Might not agree with me and I'm relatively new to developing on android and haven't coded/hacked anything impressive enough to show yet, but I have linux development experience on other platforms and can just say how developers feel from my own experience of working with clients and free advice/work I've given elsewhere.

Wondering is fine but you might not have posted this if you read the dev forums. Plenty is going on so just your perception is at a stand still.

Both are really good, synergy is going through a nightly process that's pretty fun to follow. They both have pretty good kernels and neither appears to have battery drain. If you're using an extended like I am you can expect about 36 hours with normal use, similar to froyo. If you're using the standard battery have a charger nearby The two roms aren't all that different, VIRUS and the BAMF team are both extremely talented. Flash them both, and take them for a test run. You'll likely ge 50 different opinions anyway
I suggest you download both and try them yourself.

The community reaches out with suggestions, but you are the user and naturally, have different preferences. Being a **** about people telling you to try each yourself is not going to get you personal opinions about the roms.
My advice for you? Flash the ****ing roms yourself and quit asking stupid questions.

edit: from my personal experience, I've been able to supercharge my battery by wrapping my phone in aluminum foil and putting it in the microwave for 2 minutes. I get about 10 more hours of battery life than a standard charge, but YMMV.

Hi douchebag, i'm giving the OP good advice and telling him he should try each rom to see which one HE likes best. No 2 phones are the same, meaning what works great for one person, might not work great for him. Therefore he should try them both for a couple days to see which one works best for him, and gives him the features he wants, not what other people tell him he should have. No where does he ask which one is better, but he wants better battery life, which won't be so much the function of the rom, but the kernel he chooses, uses 3g/4g, how much he uses the phone, how many calls are made, etc. So with him using the phone differently form everyone else (as we all do), telling him what works best for me, may not work best for him (is this finally getting through to you?)
Your analogy was pointless, are you going to get a car just cause someone says to get it, or are you going to test drive it to see if you really like it?

The best battery and performance I've found was Das BAMF Stripped, but I agree that you should flash each for a few days (only hours if you find one to run horrible) because different people do have different results.

Do yourself a favor and go lay on the railroad tracks.
....ANYway,
nmtuna, i would go with bamf 3.0 all day right now. i love their toolkit and for some reason I've been having trouble using nerozehl's dream kernel with Synergy (the dream kernels give me the best battery life). in terms of speed too i feel like bamf wins again. everything runs smoother than synergy's, though synergy may have the slight upper hand in terms of looks (clear drop down, 5 column app drawer, and among other relatively trivial things), but that can be easily fixed.

*IF* battery life is most important, I'd stick to a Froyo ROM. BAMF 1.8.6 is based off the MR2.5 leak. Fast as heck and very long battery life.
As far as the choice between the two listed above, and since you take offense to people suggesting you try both, I will just say <flips coin> Das BAMF Seose 3.0.
My nephew has invested in a Samsung Galaxy S2 and I've finally convinced him to root it and flash a custom rom... I have a HTC G2 and there's like 6-8 roms to choose from... And everyone of them has a different thing going for them... Like one of them is Sense 2.1, one is clean MIUI and some are mods with MIUI, some CM7-mods and a couple of Sense 3.5's and one hybrid Sense 2.1+3.0...
What I'm trying to say is, its a jungle out there... And I'd really like to help my nephew get a good and updated phone..
So what are the different 'deal-breakers' on your different ROMs? Which is the best ROM in your opinion?
(wrong catagory.. should be in Q&A.. sry..)
My opinion is that we know nothing about your nephew, therefore can't possibly make recommendations for him.

That wasn't quite what I was asking for...
But, if you insist: He's 22 years old, lives with his girlfriend on 21 years in a 2-room apartment.. He works out 2-3 times a week with his younger brother... He like WOW... He was once a big Ogamer... He goes to college.. Dunno what he studies, but something with computers... He hacked his ps3 earlier this years... He likes dubstep and mojitos... Anything else you need to know, to tell me your opinion about what ROM you think is best???
I recommend the stock ROM.
Cognition is a really fast stock-based ROM. For me, it feels very fast and works really well.

Ok, so you say everyone has a different opinion, that's why it's hard to choose. My question is, how will this thread change any of that?
The thing with this "what's the best... " always end up in people recommending their current ROM.
There is truly only one way to find out what's best for you (or your nephew for that matter).
The next thing you want to know is probably what the best modem is to use with the SGS2.
XDA is (or at least was) about exploring and share experiences.
Past few years it's more becoming a demand and receive kind of thing.
Threads like this ones are always getting locked in the end.

How about your nephew comes on here himself, reads up extensively and then makes his own informed choices as to which ROM he thinks may be best.

Dude - Ignore the wankers.
Wankers - wouldn't it be easier to just ignore the post if you have nothing constructive to offer the guy? Rather than... wanking on him?
Ezzzkiel - The nice thing in SGS2-land is that there are a lot of great, stable ROMs with decent battery life. It benefited from a lot of the startup pains that we all suffered through on the original SGS. So although it may seem like a jungle, the reality is that it is an ice cream (sic) shop with lots of great flavors.
If your nephew is technically competent and enjoys mucking around with lots of options, I would recommend one of the following:
CheckROM is a modified Samsung ROM and has a nice KitchenPro app that allows you to easily change kernels, modems, themes, apps, boot animations, etc. It also has OTA updates. I used it for quite a while and it has been stable, fast and virtually bug free.
CM7 continues to be a favorite among many folks. It is in good, but not perfect shape... but it is quite serviceable as an everyday ROM. You can modify pretty much everything you can imagine. Nightlies are available for flash freaks.
MIUI (and my favorite version - Galnet MIUI) is looking really great lately. I personally find the way it deals with notifications and replies very intuitive... even more so that CM7. Again, it has OTA updates which are handy. But it is very personal. Some people hate MIUI and some people love it.
If your nephew prefers to start with a basic flash and go ROM then Cognition, Criskelo, Batista, and about a half dozen others are excellent ROMs where everything works.
On all these ROMs the first thing I install is Go Launcher, so I have a common set of home screens that make it easy to navigate. Then I can explore the unique elements under the skin. Again, the choice of launcher is very personal. Many folks swear by Launcher Pro, ADW and others.
How can you forget to mention Villain ROM 3.0?
It's the best. Close to stock with it's own VillainTweak program.
See where this is going?

SGSII-land is like a different country... My oh my... I've heard XDA could be a harsh forum to wander, but I've only met kind and friendly users on the XDA-boards I usually look at..
Excuse me for asking you about your opinion about which ROM you find best to the SGS... Thx for the constructive posts, those of you who took time to makes such ones...
I'll find my own way through this damp and moist swamp of ROMs...

Are there any des working on this phone other than the few who are shaving over the 2-3 roms we have here in the development section?
My last phone was a nexus s (very used to variety and activity. And aokp) and these forums are disturbingly quiet, as are all the other ones i can find. Makes me wonder if i should find a trade on an international version, but this one looks so much better!
Thoughts? am i simply missing something?
Just relax, it will pick up, like always.
Still a new device

The note is a great platform in a great series of devices. Devs will not let it go untouched.
Would you rather have some cook bustout a rom he just copy pasted together from some source code he got from a Google search and it be filled with bugs and FCs or have a high quality rom that devs with talent have been working day and night in their spare time (for free) to build?
Long story short: get the note and breath lol

The Nexus S is a developer device no? Don't compare apples to oranges..
You should have bought a Google Nexus if you wanted the same kind of dev support a Nexus developer device brings.

Lets be honest...
If you want a device w/ an overactive dev community... HD2... that forum seems to STILL be rocking.
The Evo3d also has a pretty active community.
NO samusung device starts off w/ a super exciting community. They build slowly it seems. But i imagine it will pick up.
I never got it why people are so obsessed with flashing roms every 12 hours...

I'm with you, i have no time limit. There are times where I went months on a rom, but other times that I was flashing numerous roms just to see how they differed. I have so many android devices in my house that there's always something to play with. We are up to 3 nook colors, so I'm able to flash a phire to one, kanged to one, and good ol CM to one just to play with them side by side. Flashing roms is just fun to some and approached with a "why the hell not?" attitude rather then "ok i think im sure i want this one, i've ready all 8,532 comments on the thread...i think im ready", which is of course how i started this addiction.

I'm actually doing so...and I'm knee deep in research to determine steps I need to take and how to troubleshoot, etc.
i know i posted up earlier about the red border. Everything is good now. I just now have questions about this phone and its development stages. Since for some reason i cant post in dev page. I have to ask here.
So i was half tempted to not get this phone simply because i browsed the threads and saw no real roms or kernals that do anything fancy. I come from an evo 3d and could flash a rom every single day if i wanted because there were so many. I know this phone is new how new im still not sure upon. I see a real lack of any development on here. The best you can get is turning your og into a nexus 4 and than have cm 10.1 with the downside of only 8gigs of storage period. Well that was the whole reason i did not just pick up the htc one x was because there was no expandable memory and at most you had 10g of internal storage and thats it! so whats going on here? I know alot about the scene and though i have no coding experience myself nor rom building experience. I do love to test roms and i really want a not a stock feel to the phone. Where is the overclocking, where is the transperent status bar, where is anything to make this phone really stick out from stock? Hell i was running jb 4.2 on my evo 3d. Now im stuck being back on ICS? How is this possible that there is not stable jb port to this phone that is properly working. I have 14 days to return this phone. And with people releasing roms that the camera does not work, and storage is crap, and no overclocking support, is it because this is not the phone i thought it could be? Am i not doing enough research. Im currently rooted, unlocked, and running nocturnal limited, and i still feel stock and still 4.04.
Is this phone going to be heavily dev supported like the evo 3d is still today or should i return it and get a phone like the htc one that actually has dev support. All the roms i have seen for this phone is almost complete garbage interms of what this phone should be capable of. And the idea of turning into a nexus 4 is the most idiotic thing i ever heard.... let me change my phone to be another phone? Who wanted that and why did they just not go and get the nexus 4? I may be ranting but i could have got the htc one for .99 as opposed to the $100 i paid to sign a contract with att. I want to know if i am really getting jipped here. Is this not the phone plenty rave about? If your on this site there is no way you want a stock feeling phone and thats what i feel we are getting. I donated to get the freegee app to find out there is no good roms therefor no need to unlock the bootloader so i can flash roms that are not here..........
please dont come at me like a hard a$$ and talk crap, im simply expressing an opinion and asking questions. I loved my evo3d and if i have to carry both around because my 3 year old phone is 10 times better than this optimus im going to be upset. I would just like someone to explain what is in the works with this phone, and if and when there will be some real dev support and why there is almost non at the moment. It sad when devs are still all over the 3d posting new roms everyday, and this one has 5 that are garbage?
thank you for your actual intelligent responses, and cant wait for some nerd raging on me for blasting this out like this. Im simply being real.
Try reading this forum for the answers to your questions. Then maybe sell your OG to someone who appreciates it and knows what to do with it. Sounds like you'd be better off with a SG3. Good luck.

exactly the responses i was expecting lol.....
Its clearly obvious i have read the forums as i am rooted, unlocked with twrp and nocturnal limited rom... so thank you for pointing out how much i have not read.
As for the sg3...... well thats is just an over priced piece of trash everyone i know hates them.... so thanks but piss off...
as for your iphone comment... only mainstream looooooosers have iphones as they are for the dumb...
no you may not have my optimus if i do anything with it , it will go back to att and ill get a htc one x+ at least people are doing things or at least talking of things they are doing.
HTC has huge dev support and this being my first LG i knew it was going to take some getting used to. I was just hoping for a little more out of this highly praised machine. It is a great phone, i will not say its not. I just was expecting from such a great phone a huge dev following of which i do not see. I see about 5 different roms, a custom cwm touch recovery, and hmmm..... turning your optimus into a nexus.. For you thinking that i am bashing on lg and should give it away.... there is people here pretending there phones are different phones... "hey look i know it says lg but is totally a nexus!" I can download a launcher that makes my phone look like a windows phone.... but hmmmm how dumb is that? At the end of this rant, i was curious as to what anyone knows about the future of the development on this phone. Clearly you do not have answers because that would take thinking, your idiotic comments and replys did nothing to offer any sort of answer nor did it show your IQ being anywhere near that of a 10 year old..
I clearly posted i await your nerd rage and therefore clearly enjoy it, however this thread was not started with the sole intent of it being a bickering fest. I wanted some serious answers, and I tried to express myself and thoughts on this phone along with questions that involved the future of this phone.
I am a flashaholic, i love to make my phones the best they can be. I love anything custom! So if you wanna cry about my thoughts on the phone cry, ill bring you a tissue, otherwise offer some real insight into what this phone is all about, and hopefully where this phone might be heading. Otherwise take your trolling, crying , butthurt comments somewhere else, as they are just absolutely humorous to me, and ill will reply accordingly.
Thanks and hope to hear some real comments...
btw: i cant wait for the grammer police comments cause it seems if no one has something good to say, they just like to correct your grammer, sort of like "your a tool" "no, your a tool" and we can definatly take this back to 1st grade if you like.

"have the AT&T LGOG and it's rooted with unlocked boot loader and is running a custom ROM called The Base. Devs are working hard to build a way to easily port any Nexus 4 ROM. They have CM10 working but are still working out the kinks before releasing it. CM9 and a stock AOSP rom are also in the works. The Base is a stock, rooted, and debloated ROM and it is already out. Development is going strong and everyday I see more developers move on over to it. Since it is very similar to the Nexus 4, once all the hard work is done building the device tree, roms are gonna come flying out."

I do believe its a great phone, but heavily relying on nexus devs to do all the dirty work, granted they are practically the same. Again i wanted to know whats up with this phone.

If all of these features are important to you, and flashing a new rom everyday gives your life some meaning, then you made an idiotic move purchasing this phone.

And...? Everything I said is true.
LGOG is rooted and has unlocked bootloader
Has stock roms (The Base, Slick, Noc)
Devs are still working on a way to port Nexus 4 roms (I believe it has to do with building a device tree and obtaining source for JB kernel)
CM10 (an actual ROM, not the N4 conversion) is "almost" done (About 3 weeks ago a dev said it booted and they could hear the lock screen but couldn't see the display due to driver issues.
A dev was working on CM9 but I believe they stopped because there was no point in releasing an outdated ROM.
Development is going strong and everyday I see more developers move on over to it. - Fact (Development is a slow process. They have made huge progress in only a few months. This phone isn't like samsung. They are working from a locked down system with no source code. They are amazing for what they do. They are some of the best devs on XDA.)
Once we have on bootable ROM, which will happen, Roms will be coming out quickly.
So I guess the real question is, "Do you actually know how to read?"

Stop trolling every thread and post that is on the site.... you talk about giving my life meaning and here you are telling me to stop it? Hmmmm who are you?

I posted joes comment because as i read i actually found it useful. So thanks for peeking in this thread but your comments are best left in that pea sized thing rattling around in your giant head some might call a brain..

Wish I had better news. We are all eagerly and (in)patiently waiting for the first release of non-stock roms. Unfortunately, it's just a waiting game. Right now it's LG's move and they are taking their sweet little time. We do have a strong dev following. They are lurking in the shadows. We are very fortunate that we have both an international version of this phone and also the Nexus 4. That gives us two pools where ROMs can be ported from. Just like the Nexus S, i9000, and Samsung Captivate. All of which are still going strong. It took time to get things setup for those phones and like I said we are at a disadvantage because LG isn't as "helpful" as Samsung. Development will take off one way or another, we just have to wait.
IMHO though, nobody should be complaining because stock LG is amazing. And the stock ROMs are perfect.
Dude....
Your entire post sounds like one big vagina monologue.
"There is not enough dev support for this phone..... I can't believe we don't have a stable JB ROM..... I want to flash a new rom every day....."

Just making the point that you obviously did not act like a rational consumer by purchasing a product that does not meet your expectations, then complain about it in the QA section.
Not sure why you needed to create this thread. Return the phone and get something else if you aren't happy with it. It's not rocket science, lol.

Oh look, it's this thread again
Guys, settle down please. Let's not turn this into the i777 forums. I'd rather not relive that.
This phone is too powerful to not be developed, but developing for ICS is pointless when JB is coming. There will be much more development. You must just be patient. But in all honesty, Samsung and HTC will probably always have more development, so if you are a flashaholic, I would go with the SIII.

They wouldn't close this thread, it has been nothing but honest, intelligent, mature, informative discussion.
But honestly, this has been asked a lot... We are hoping development will pick up after the source is released and JB hits our device.
But there are no guarantees, it is kind of your fault for picking up a device (great as it may be) that doesn't have 20+ ROMs out for it, you should have looked here first and shied away from the device if development was so important.
Based on what we have heard from devs, the work is being done, it is slow going with no source and nobody wants to work on ICS when JB is coming so soon.
Also, one of the biggest problems here, you called what development we have seen released "garbage," most likely (hopefully) the devs can dismiss that statement as the angry rantings of somebody with a bad filter, but it is still terrible motivation to spur development further.
Work has gone into the development we have seen, it may not have quite the shock and awe factor you are looking for, but they are solid works.
It sounded like you were very unappreciative and then demanded more, maybe not your intention, but that is how it can be construed.
I'm not trying to bash you in any way, but the community does better when there is less... negativity.
Also, no need to be so defensive, you knew you would get the responses you did, should have just let them slide.

dood i agree the i777 forums was a nightmare with all the immaturity attitude around
I get the feeling OP is the kind of guy that complains when he gets free stuff.
As for getting a new phone, good riddance. You really didn't need to make this thread. A lot of us are waiting on custom ROMs and CM10 and all that. You don't see us whining about it like a little girl (no offense ladies )
