Looking for a developer for a native Phish app.

Hello, I am an active member over on Phish.net, and lately, we have been looking for a developer to help develop a native Phish.net application. This will be a real app under the name Phish.net. Your help and expertise will be greatly appreciated.
I have been on this forum for a couple of months now with my Eris, rooting and all of that, so I said I would give it a try to see if anyone around here is interested. I know that there are a lot of amazing developers on this site.
Peace, and thanks,
Chris

I would love to see this app come to life! I was at the Cleveland show a week and a half ago and it was amazing.

What exactly do you mean by help? Like you need someone to develop it by himself? or that you already have some people working on it, just need more developers?

We are looking for someone to develop it. None of us on the site know how to do it, we just listen to a lot of music and talk about it. Ha...
And yeah man, Phish is great, and the site is amazing too. How long have you been listening to them?

I have been listening to them for years, but have only been to 3 shows. I think I am going to see them in Indy both nights. I am jealous of the iPhone Phish apps, can't wait to see them on Android! I am not a Dev (hardware guy) or I would gladly help out.

I fully approve of this thread!
still on my tp2, really considering an andriod device and probably would have just gone ahead and ordered it today if the phish app was already available with fall tour coming up!
I am sick of just listening the the livephish stream on my phone!

Samsung/XDA part2

I haven't forgot about you guys. Today we had a meeting with XDA owners via telephone. Were just getting everything ready before we make a huge announcement. I told you guys I'm NOT going to let you guys down. Just be a little patient.
Thanks

I'm not sure there are a lot of expectations here to be let down. We know that in most cases you probably wouldn't be able to offer us beta, or even alpha firmware and software to develop with or on. RC firmware and software would be just as much out of the question so we're down to what is already out, or something that is leaked by people friendly to the development communities that take the chance of getting in to a lot of trouble. So I don't really know what you have to offer yet. I am curious to find out, though.

Dear john, you have sparked a lot of interest, we are drooling at the mouth do you have any gingerbread for us, or dare I speak of honeycomb? ;-)

"IF" this where to happen it would be a good thing for both samsung and xda for the simple fact that it would help us make better mods for the samsung community and would allow samsung to release things that are more open to modding and customizations that all of us around here love and enjoy making (or in my case learning to make)...hope all goes well with this.

I am a dubious person and do not have expectations as I am still uncertain as to your intentions and more importantly you identity.
But if all is as you say I would take back to the powers that be, many are obviously unhappy with having to run outdated software in the form of the OS on what was at the time of purchase cutting edge hardware.
Give us a option. Give us a way to open the phone up and flash a AOSP option. A more Nexus-ish approach would be fantastic.
The Mainstream will have what they require in a stock configuration and we the ones that know what the potential of the device is can help you in pushing it to its limits.

Well I'm trying to get my post count up so I can comment in development. Anywho kudos to samsung.

Thanks again John, I'm excited and look forward to hearing your announcement!
For those skeptics, he's been trying to prove that he's legit;

Honeycomb is made for tablets so I don't think that really helps us. And I highly doubt Samsung is going to release Gingerbread directly to XDA if at all.

maybe samsung will use us for testing and maybe some tweaking...that would give us a chance to develop on it before its officially released and we would just plain out have it early, cause if you give the devs here like 2 weeks with just about anything it will be fully modded and running to its full potential!!!
props to xda devs!!!

Everyone please come over to this thread.

Hopefully their next approach works out better, they should have known better than to open a topic up to the entire forum
They should probably have moderator's from each device take questions from their users, then they could collaborate and get only the good questions answered. (and you wouldn't have to deal with trolls/flames/etc.)

I suppose the question *since we can't ask specifics* is....
What can you do to help us and or what tools can you provide to the DEVs to help us get every bit of Awesome out of the device that we can.
Put the ball in your court.

Glad THIS thread is still open...
(Does SamsungJohn know how forums work?!?)
ANYhoo... I'm a give 'em enough rope to hang themselves kinda guy and I've actually been recommending the Mesmerize & Fascinate to friends that need new phones based solely on the great XDA community and what they can get those phones to do using only a bread tie, three pennies, and a jar of Cheez Wiz. Kudos to the devs once again!
I had no delusions that Samsung was a great manufacturer... my TV and DVD/home theater unit have had their share of problems... and I was also aware of the OS update delays in other product lines before I got my phone so that wasn't a big surprise either. BUT, I got in on the free phone thing through USCC and (if I EVER get my $80 rebate) I'll still consider being a Mesmerize owner/user a WIN.
What I see here is a classic example of a company that has the OBVIOUS solution within their grasp and they are actively choosing to find an alternative to it that will provide them SHORT TERM monetary gains. They have set themselves up for failure and they have only themselves to blame. Here's a vocabulary lesson for SamsungJohn et al... crowdsourcing

Guys if you haven't read through it, that topic was closed by a moderator because it was an experiment that failed miserably. (because the general XDA population isn't very good at reading and following instruction, and it turned into a huge flamefest.)
John has been confirmed by several sources to be who he says he is (at least works for samsung) and is here working with the XDA administration to (in an organized way) swap feedback with the developing community (on all samsung products).
On a side note Supercurio has been in correspondence with Korean Samsung and has been also pushing for this very thing to happen, but from what I've read i'ts pure coincidence that John arrived when he did.
Anyway, sounds to me like we need to be patient as information IS coming as soon as they figure out the best way to go about this whole thing. This is how I've taken things from what I've read today, don't quote me....

In all fairness Crowdsourceing is what the whole AOSP is about. Android was and is developed to be Open Source. So if a company is reaching out to the community it can't be all bad.
I just think that for the most part a lot of us here are end users.
While I am sure that others like me want to, and strive to learn more, we simply will not be on a par with the current crop of DEVs as they progress as well.
I think the idea of a couple DEVs from each of the respective forums of the variations of the SGS platforms being in contact is a smart idea.
Dcows, Phidelt, and of course JT and many of the OPs in the Samsung Fascinate IRC channel would be obvious choices.
In fact a meeting of the minds in a channel of choice with only participants having voice would be nice as well.
I do understand and hope that SamsungJohn does know as well that most here are simply end users and just wanna know when we will get xxx or yyy ..
I will now go back to my corner get my Java Text out and see if I can learn, learn, learn....

If samsung really wants to get in good with the developement community, they would be wise to make it entirely official, and go to engadget or someone with a press release. If you want to gain our trust, give everyone the AOSP build.
Do I want sammy to be community-minded? Absolutely.
Am I going to trust one guy who says he works for our manufacturer? Well, let's get to the root of that. Do I trust the company who created out hardware? Not at all.

Yeah I frequent the irc with those guys and we're always willing to help people... I think a lot of people come to forums just to get help and information rather than to develop and theme and stuff like we do. It would probably be more beneficial for Samsungjohn to maybe set up a date on the irc and say like "I will be on from x time to y time" and then people can get on and ask questions and talk about things, and more of the power users who use the irc regularly will get a chance to maybe learn some stuff or help out Samsung.
It would also make it much easier to control, if things get out of hand then the OPs can simply kick or ban the culprits.

GrilledCheze Lives in Japan, Anyone speak to him?

I PM'd grilledcheze, but I didn't get one back. He lives in japan! The earthquake and tsunami are a big deal , and I wanted to know if he's okay, and if he needs any help. I've even started up a donation fund. If anyone knows if he's okay, let us know! And Sean, if you need help, don't HESITATE TO ASK!

bump? guess not

Hey man, lets hope all is well for him.. give this a shot.

Remember...millions of people on the northern areas and abroad are without power and communications.

This is spooky. But his last activity is sometime yesterday. Hope all is good.

Know what city? Other areas like Kyoto, Osaka should have little in the way of daily disruption. I was planning to go there for Sakura season, but glad I went a little early.

Last Activity: Today 02:22 AM (That's GMT), so about 12 hours ago from his public profile page
Also guys, there are issues with the PM system on XDA just now - sending and receiving PMs may sometimes result in an error page, so it's possible to be having difficulty opening them.

He's okay! Good to know. Got a PM back from him.

Thanks Guys!
Hey everyone. I'm doing OK.
I posted a longer explanation in another thread and will continue to follow it and keep everyone updated.

[APP REQUEST] Launching record label, looking to old friends for support!

Hey guys! It's been a long while, for some reason my post count is greatly reduced, but oh well, all you old timers probably remember me, lol.
Anyway, so here's the deal, I'm launching my record label, Syko Records, and I've been trying to think of creative ways to dominate the industry, being a no-name-up-and-comer I have to be innovative. Of course, I thought of all my genius pals here at XDA, and hope that maybe someone would be interested in volunteering their time for the cause.
I don't have any monetary compensation, but I'm sure we can work out something that benefits you for your time!
If anyone is interested in being a part of the next big movement in music, please let me know and lets get started!
Peace!
Ken

Oh come on, I know someone wants a chance to work with an indie record label! I hoped there would have been a better response!
Anyone!?

Lmao

Hahaha, well actually I'm always checking out artists, if you want to send me over a digital press kit I'll be more than happy to check it out, especially since you're an XDA buddy.
Send me a PM, and I'll shoot you an email to send some tracks to.

....testes one two three...testes one two three.....is THIS THING ON? lol j/k...

So seriously REALLY? There are no giving souls out there?

I'm no app developer yet but what exactly are you looking for? Ive been wanting to learn it for a while but haven't really found anything to create that hasn't already been done a million times. I'd love to help if you have enough time for me to learn as I go. Hit me up on gtalk: [email protected] if you're interested.

I encourage any developers interested in rap and hip hop to check out my website www.sykorecords.com.
You could be a part of something HUGE!

Not really helpful just pointing out one of the most Influential record companies around has a very similar name

[Q] Diving into the mobile app world

Hi,
Am happy to have found this forum. After spending time reading through some of the threads, it made sense for me to be part of this platform.
I believe, am here for business.
Am very optimistic about the mobile app world and am eager to connect with guys who believe they have the ability to build amazing apps, with guys who believe they have great ideas but not the push to move ahead.
Lets get along and make it big for all of us.
Looking forward to some interesting interactions..

Pankaj

Hi Sralli,
Intentions are simple and good. I believe there is unlimited potential around us, just that most times it does not get channelized because of which great ideas get lost.
I think, if there is a good idea, I can help making it great and contribute in the execution, possibly in all ways. Likewise, if someone believes that he or she can develop anything, then, I would want to be in his friends list because, I can any day come up with a most idiotic coding idea for him to execute.
Hope, this helps..
Regards,
