Petition: For new HTC Juno/Phoebus - T-mobile Shadow - Dopod c750 section.

As this device is now available in multiple parts of the world, I believe that it deserves a section on the forums as many of the other HTC devices do. At first with the understanding that sections are only created for devices released throughout the world, the Juno has been announced for Dopod as the c750. I and many others believe it is time for the device to shine. Please give us a section.
If you believe in this movement for a new section, please acknowledge below. And hopefully in time we will all be able to rejoice in the new comming.​

I've pm one of the forums admins and he told me that we will have a section soon....

Well thats good to hear. Lets hope its soon.

I agree that we need a section for the juno/shadow/c750. We need a place where more people can collaborate on shadow-specific topics

i''m with you guys on this one too

in as well

Me too! I cant wait!

I'm ALL for it. It would be great to get back to xda forums since not a not goes on at Modaco. No rip there.. but you guys know what I'm talking about. All the real action is here!!

Just got mine, and I'm all for this.

I'm in also.

Me too....

I'd like to see one as well.

Please. Pretty Please.

Excellent idea! I'd read it!

i would also like to see an iris/s640 thread/forum..
and a 6.1 rom for it. pretty please.

I would love a shadow section

same here!

pretty please!

We've even started to cook roms and there is not section yet!!!

Exactly... We need to move forward with this device. Having the Juno spread throughout the Smartphone general forum is time consuming and not very professional. Please mods, I beg of you. Take 5 minutes and please open us up a forum. As the device is rolled out more throughout the world, you will see more of a rush of readers looking to XDA-DEVELOPERS.com for information and modifications to make their Juno/Shadow/c750 their own.
Please, we beg of you... Oh Gods of the Smartphone Underworld...

In protest

Seeing as the admins here are stubbornly refusing to create a dedicated sub forum for the x7510, I've set up a free forum which may be found here: http://htcathena.freeforums.org
Please note: I don't WANT to be running a seperate board and I'd prefer to have a sub forum here. However, for as long as the admins ignore our requests I'll keep that forum running.
Should a dedicated x7510 sub forum be created here I will close that forum down. Closing down may be deleting it, or if there were many useful posts simply preventing new posts, so that it dies a slower death over time.
This is NOT an attempt at blackmail, but rather me trying to avoid more devices being bricked.
PS: Please excuse the ads on that site - I've gone with the completely free option, so I'm saddled with the ads!

What's the big deal?

What reason could the xda admins possibly have for not creating a sub-forum for the 7510? Or even an entirely new forum? Look at the Elf and the Vogue.
Anyone know the admins' reasoning on this?

Isn't in my mod powers to create a sub section... I am asking to the admins, again. I hope we will have some answers soon

Thank you, although I have to say at this stage I'm quite annoyed with the admins, especially seeing as they cannot even be bothered to respond to any request!

elf and vogue are totally different devices which happen to look the same
one is cdma and one is gsm and they work in totally different ways. the vogue has 400mhz prcessor and the elf 201mhz
also to be perfectly honest, how can people not tell the difference between x7510 and x7500/x7501
you bought a device that cost £700 (according to expansys) so surely you know its model name. and because of the cost, if you see x7500/x7501 unlocker you will be wary of using it, even if you think its a typing error
and on the subject of the elf, the elf has 2 variants elf (64 ram and 128 rom) and elfin (128 ram and 256 rom)
both are different and only the elf has hard spl
flashing one rom for one onto the other will brick it
so the same probs as here
but they deal with it and have stickies saying how to distinguish between them and where to go for hat, and seperate guides for flashing roms onto the elf and elfin etc etc
so maybe thats whats neded here
i think the admins are probably fed up of people requesting fora only to have them empty:gene, pharos, juno, sedna are all pretty empty forums that were massively requested and yet not much comes out of them
and now i just counted the votes in the "we want an x7510 section" thread nd there are 33 in 3 months
yes 33
not exactly a huge number is it
But you may all think im just raining on your parade, but im not, I completely understand why you want a new section, but im just trying to highlight why the admins probably dont want it, there are so many new devices which have massive appeal, compared to a £700 device which is essentially an 18 month old device in new casing.
And so in conclusion, I think a sticky explaining he differences between x7510 and stuff is whats needed. Plus, cmones seemed keen to make (or try and make) you guys a hard spl, so why doesnt someone whose a senior (or old) member contact HER and see what she can come up with. she will probably need rom dumps and stuff, but I'm sure she can do it. after all she and others got custom roms on the shift.
night guys, and I hope it works out for you all, and nobody else bricks their devices...

Now THAT was helpful! Why didn't anybody else think about it!
But seriously, CMONEX confirmed she is working on a hard SPL/unlocker and happens to agree with the need for a seperate sub-forum, for a number of valid reasons.
The thing is that a sub-forum will not affect anybody else on XDA-Devs - it won't require more resources, nor more bandwidth. It takes a minute to set up and it may well save several devices.
So please tell me in great detail why there SHOULDN'T be a seperate sub-forum? Why SHOULDN'T things be better organised than the current "pile-everything-into-one-pot" mess? And how exactly will YOU be any worse off should a sub-forum be created?
You will be worse off, won't you? Why else would you be against it?

I agree with you on that, NanoRuler. E.g. without the latest Athena ROM link by sergiopi (thanks for it), I wasn't even able to compare all existing ROMs for the x7500 at a glance, there are too many threads spread over the entire forum.
Regarding the x7510, a new sub forum would possibly give a better overview. It hasn't been of major importance until now, but it will become necessary very fast, once the x7510 can be unlocked...we should get prepared for that moment. ;-)

Yes, except there was no indication NOT to run various tools against the x7510.

My, what an excellent example of good organisation....NOT. Maybe what's required is a rethink in how the forums are structured, eh? And maybe having distinct sub forums for the different models of Athena will help a great deal.

Let me re-phrase your sentiment: I don't want you guys to benefit from a seperate section (even though I'm not directly affected!) and I certainly don't want things to become more organised and anyway there's so few of you that your opinion doesn't matter, but hey, here's to no more bricked devices!
I'll be polite here and let you choose the 1st word, but the second word of my reply is certainly "OFF!"

you think thee are lots of roms here, go look at damond rom development and then tell us there are loads of roms here...
I really dont mind or care if theres a seperate section, but I can see why you want one, and also why the admins havent made it
I think a seperate section would actually help dev for us, as we could use your roms and port between the two and stuff.. it would lead to a better dev community here

nano, don't take your anger out on rory. He's not a mod and undeserving of your "**** off".
How about you have a few drinks and relax?

Yes, he's not a mod, but he also did not need to try and build a case against the wishes of quite a few members here using poorly thought out strategies.
He was dismissive without having any reason to be and essentially stated that our opinion doesn't matter (although he didn't quite put it in those words).
Finally, I specifically did NOT tell him to **** off, but gave him some choice in the phrase.
Either somebody's part of the solution...

fair play
hope it works out for you guys

HTC Max 4G Forum?

Hey guys,
Could one of the moderators add a forum for the new HTC Max 4G? I know it's a lot of forums to add, but I think this device looks really promising
thanks

i second that. i hope it will work on the att network!

I am assuming that because of this models limited release, it won't be getting a dedicated forum.
Could someone please confirm or deny that Blackstone mods and software are compatible with the Max? If so, then the lack of it's own forum won't be as missed considering the ample community surrounding the HD.
Thank you.

Guys
In About XDA-Devs there is a thread called petitions form users to mods
I think this asking should go there, so you´ll have more chances to get their atention
Just a suggestion.

Looks like a great device, but in order to have a forum, you have to actually have people contributing to it. In all the HTC forums that I read regularly , I have only read one post from someone in Russia, who actually has one.
Any others?

Cool device...I've only seen 2 prior threads on it in the HD section & Networking section.

The first two posts are rather old, the individuals probably weren't aware the device was only being released in Russia. I doubt there are any people actually expecting the Quartz to get a forum of its own at this point.
I simply didn't want to start a new thread for my question, so bumped this one instead. I see where I should have been more clear. Denco7 and Galaxys are correct in their observations that there will likely be little activity directed toward this handset directly. I was just hoping to get some clarification on whether Quartz owners can play with contributions for the HD or not.
In retrospect, starting a new thread in the Blackstone forums would have been more effective.

Here's the original max4g thread that may have some info or you can ask questions:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=461922&highlight=max4g

Two facts.
1. HardSPL available (by cmonex).
2. First cooked ROMs have been tested by 4pda users.
Hope these would be enough for hosting new forum for Quartz users as their activity will definitely boost.

first of all mods can't make new forums only admin can do that

Lack of CDMA rom forum(do we neeed one)

As we all know. We don't have a CDMA rom section. But only for gsm devices which are no use for us. So I have made a request to have one so that we can ask all developers to post there. That way we can attract more members also as most of them go to other forums.
So I created a post at this thread eeqursting for a CDMA section
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=616206&page=111
So pls give your reponses om that thread so that we could be successful

I agree with you of the lack of support for us CDMA users!!!!!!!. I have the Sprint Tab 7 and I regret having it. I may sell or destroy mine and get a GSM SOON!!!!!!!!. I hate not having support. I feel like a second class citizen!!!!!!!!!!!!

I know in the past there has been some animosity between this forum and ppcgeeks but hopefully its not sacrilege to post a link to..... ppcgeeks' cdma tp2 dev/rom forum

Not many people cook for CDMA TP2 lately. Best bet to find a ROM for our old phones is PPCG. Ofcourse the person above my post gave a link...so you will have to click that and find out.

I guess not a lot of people use a CDMA one? ppcgeeks has a sub-forum for the CDMA Rhodium phones.

AWESOME
Welcome
Good to see another chef joining here. Will flash the 6.5.X rom later (battery is empty)
You've maked an awesome thread if you ask me (totaly clear what I can expect when flashing this one). the screenshots, the info about the rom, everything what's needed is in the first posts...
Can i Help you with mirrors? Guess not needed with the great direct download links.
Will comment when I've played with this rom.

Thanks for trying me out and thanks for the compliments on the thread! I always try to make the 1st post contain all necessary information and give users a pretty good feel for what they're getting into. It goes unnoticed most of the time. It's good to see someone appreciate it!
If someone is having trouble with a download you can certainly mirror it. Hold off for now though. I'd like to try and keep track of how many times it's being downloaded.
For a bit more reading and history on the ROM you can also check out the veteran thread at PPCGeeks. The link is in my sig.
Thanks again! I look forward to your feedback!

CDMA !
WOW, Just saw it in time, this ROM is for CDMA devices only... DON'T FLASH THIS ROM ON YOUR GSM DEVICE.
​To sharkie405:
I'll not flash this one with my GSM device.
There's another thread especially for CDMA devices HERE
There are no CDMA ROMS posted in this thread (Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development).
To bad, would love to try this ROM, but I don't want to brick my Touch Pro 2 GSM.

Dammit!! Why are there no ROMs in that forum?? I thought that's where I should have posted it... Are there just no CDMA ROMs here? I'll have to get with a mod to move the thread then. Sorry about that. Glad you caught it in time.

Yeah, strange there are no ROMS, even NRGZ28 has his CDMA ROMs only posted on PPCGEEKS...

Thank you Sharkie.
Will be trying this one out very soon.
Nice to see more CDMA options around.(or any, on XDA)

Thanks NRG and Santod. I guess we'll find out why everyone has pulled their CDMA ROMs from XDA.
In any event, it's good to be here tucked away in the ever shrinking world of the CDMA TP2. A diamond in the rough...

Yes, thanks NRGz very much.
For moving this thread and for being the most dedicated rom chef I have seen.
I have always been grateful for your consistency of rom releases for both GSM and more so, for CDMA.
It is very unfortunate that there are not more options for us.
As not all GSM rom chefs care to do both.
Would be great of they did, so that there were not only more options, but also more bugs and issues that are CDMA related could be worked out amongst multiple experienced chefs.
Anyway, glad to see another option Sharkie.

Bump!
I see that this thread has 422 views. At least 200 or so of those views have been since the thread was moved to the proper location. I assume that at least some of the 200+ people that have viewed this thread since it was moved are in possession of a CDMA TP2 and furthermore I also assume that at least a few of you have flashed the ROM.
So, what do you think? Don't be shy

I Added this to the 2nd post for anyone that missed some of the wallpapers I used to include...
"HERE is a 7zip file of most of the wallpapers that I used to include in the ROMs but removed to save space. There are 1 or 2 originals by me in there, but most of them are from places like Zedge.net, Santod, Titleloo over at XDA and many more... I can't remember everywhere I nabbed a pic from, sorry "

Added new SharkieROM Cutting Edge Series ROMs to 1st post. Check back often for the latest and greatest!

nice rom man, its good to see ppl here

Great to finally see someone posting CDMA ROMs on XDA. I wish you had this as a GSM ROM. It looks great. Please keep it up here. XDA needs more quality CDMA ROMs like this.

Thanks guys! Yeah, I'm sticking around for the long haul. I told myself before I started the thread that no matter if there is absolutely no audience for CDMA TP2s here, I was going to stick around, just for the hell of it. Like you said, it's XDA, WTF do you mean there's no TP2 CDMA ROMs?!?! C'mon now! So, here I am

23699 and 28244 CE ROMs are up!
Added 23699 and 28244 SharkieROM CE v2.0 R2s to the 1st post!

MMTaskManager Skin is up in 2nd post.
I've made an MMTaskManager skin and posted it along with a couple of screenies in the 2nd post. If you try it, let me know what you think!
