Hello,
Since I'm new here, I don't yet know the OP for supporting the devs working to root phones, so I'd like to know what the senior members recommend.
I understand when someone finds a way to root, it's recommended that we reward them through their PayPal button, but is there anything we can do during the lead-up to that? Donations? Resources?
I want to support in any way I can, is all.
Thanks,
Andreas

Sit down, strap in, hang on, and WATCH the show buddy. You'll know when and where to donate when the time is right.

For future reference try not to post in the development section. Put your questions in Q&A section.
And don't think that throwing money at the developers is going to speed the process. The best devs on this site do it for fun rather than money.

That makes sense. When I hear of people feeding Sprint reps in exchange for information, I'd like to kick some money their way to help with it.

10-4. Sorry about it.
I thought that since my question was specifically related to this section, and those my question was directed to frequented this forum more than, say, the Q&A forum, this would be a good place for it.
But if this forum is only for discussion specifically relating to the technical specifications of the phone, my apologies.
It is, for development I mean. Feel free to donate to xda, seems to keep the site working.

What happen to those guys? They saved my life about a year ago. They have to have something up there sleeve for this one. It only took me a few minutes to get fully rooted and have clockwork mod recovery. Good things come to those who wait? I'm tired of waiting. So what do I do? Keep waiting until one of you genius devs to figure it out.

JFYI this is the dev section, this post belongs in QA or General. Keep in mind for the future because people will give you hell about it.
Why would you create a new thread in the DEVELOPMENT section? Mods please move to GENERAL or delete all together.
FYI OP: There are different sections for a reason.

I vote delete. The OP is clearly trolling.
any thread title with 5 question marks should be instantly deleted and op banned
OP obviously isn't in the loop.
AHHHH!!! Unrevoked? Really? You create a thread in the dev section to ask a question and if that wasn't bad enough you ask about Unrevoked! Get outta here with that sh*t...its gonna be a good long while before you get your phone rooted! lmao

For all we know they may be working on a root method but with the lack of success of Gingerbreak and other one-click root methods I would guess that they, like many others, are having a hard time finding a useable exploit...
We are certainly working on something and will post if and when it's ready.

Why can't you just respectfully answer the damn question and then proceed to having it transferred to the QA section.

Its more fun to pick on people, especially newcomers than to actually help them, or at least it seems that way.
Submitting items in appropriate sections are a damned good thing.....but do people actually give a ratsass about catching "hell" or a threat of getting "flamed" on a freakin' forum?!

Agreed, takes 10 posts to post in dev section. His 11th post is this crap!
I've been a member here for a long time, but do not speak much as most questions I would have about any of my devices have clearly been discussed.
I also understand where new members would not know much about whats going on at times, but its nothing more than a simple search. I (and all other members new/old) have to search like everyone else. Its really not hard.
Its also believed with the great devs that are doing what they can (and I THANK YOU for that) to get root available for our device. I'm SURE they will have something up (as in a new thread) that they have achieved what we have been waiting for. Its going to happen. Be appreciative that we even have devs that are making the time to find out all that they can. Without them, we'd be in a world of hurt.
Just my .18 cents.
You 'section police' people are fkn pathetic.
Seriously hate coming to this forum now.
"I also understand where new members would not know much about whats going on at times, but its nothing more than a simple search. I (and all other members new/old) have to search like everyone else. Its really not hard."
Of course. No one argues with that.
Its how they're told that.
Members with 5000 posts don't have liscence to be a**holes. They're no more 'valuable' than someone with 1 in terms of basic civility.
And after 1301 posts...this is your offering?! Lol?
I'll take his 11th!

Think of "development" like a business...professionalism is important in business, no? There is a job that is being done here.
If you are looking for the tavern take it to General, if you are looking for the visitors assistance center take it to Q&A. This is all spelled out in the rules. If you have no "developing" to contribute to the "development" please take it elsewhere.
Posting non-development related posts is like showing up drunk to work, and your post is like an even drunker guy proclaiming how BS the professionalism is at said business.
I'll shut up now, as this is unrelated to development.
Is anyone still actively working on putting Android on this thing, or has the momentum passed?
I have been out of the forums for a while and am trying to get caught up quickly.
Thanks.

I strongly disagree with number two. Any idiot can ask a question, only a smart person knows when it's necessary. Someone the other week had opened a thread because his clock had the wrong time. There are most certainly stupid questions.

Not.to be argumentative but.... My son has the LG thrill and his clock is randomly changing times on him resulting in him being late for work on one occasion. I haven't been able to figure it out yet (though i really haven't spent that much time trying yet) and don't want to resort to flashing a different Rom on it. so i could see asking a question like that in the near future if i don't figure it out. ( obviously in the thrill forum)
from a galaxy far far away....

If asked and answered, you gain knowledge. Not everyone on this site is at the same level. Easy for you may be hard for some other user. I have had my own"duh"moments. If you haven't then more power to you. I look forward to your input here to help out so others can benifit from your knowledge. I will agree with your last sentence that there are stupid questions .. hence the thread name. But I will ask you to refrain from name calling. Thanks. I hope you stick around.

Ultra noob here. I got my phone on kijiji and it was already rooted and flashed to work with Wind Mobile(Canada). The phone is originally from Rogers.
Here is what I get from phone info
Model number - SGH-I717R
Android Version - 2.3.6
Baseband Version - T989DTLKJ3
Kernel Version - 2.6.35.11
Build number Gingerbread.248
I am not sure what exactly has been done. I would like to upgrade to ICS and still have it working with Wind Mobile. What do I do? Where do I begin?
Thanks in advance and sorry. I know its a stupid stupid question.
hi.
i bought a sim free s3 last year and used various uk sims in it.
then went to pakistan last year and took it with me. sims wouldnt work so had to get it rooted to work.
the guy said it had an international lock on it where you cant use it with other countries sims.
anyone got any idea i thought simfree means unlocked anywhere in the world.
dude, look through the section list again and tell me where the questions go. then hit "report" on the post and ask for it to be moved to the correct section. thanks

glebun i really do enjoy reading many of your comment bru even had quite a few chuckles, but dude really this "vigilante policing" really wont bring you anything mate. the xda doesn't really take to self-privatization, believe me i have made this mistake myself and nearly acquired a ban,
im not putting this post to stifle you or poke-fun,. more like wanting to preserve your attendance here with us :cyclops:
plus you could bring much more to the threads then then this. pretty much every other post you make gets a thanks, but these kind wont buddy. the mods have got they're jobs, enjoy your time here mate :highfive:
when we were new to this we were noobs too
edit: i have given you a thanks too show i mean no hate here
In that case presume you have reported the OP to the mods .
Why not ask the mods not to have a separate help section .

most noobs know that help section is for asking for help. being a noob doesn't mean being unable to read.
If I get banned for this - so be it. But people who post without bothering to read the section list and the stickies deserve it more. Feel free to disagree
