Looking For Developers Who Want to be on XDA TV - General Topics

Come join me on XDA TV!
Hey everyone. I need to start out by apologizing for the slow start on my XDA TV show. It turns out that doing interviews over hotel internet doesn't work no matter where you are in the world. My business trip has ended, which means my show, XDA Insider, is ready to get going.
My show is all about you! The community. Each week I will be sitting down with a developer, admin, moderator, or anyone else who helps contribute to the community.
Obviously, I can't kick start the show without a guest, so this is my callout: Would you like to be on XDA Insider? Post here or send me a private message containing 2 pieces of information - 1. what you do on this site 2. what times during the day you are available for interview.
Please remember that this show will be interactive, so we will need to set a recording date so I can give the community ample time to ask any questions they would like.
Show recording times
I prefer to record the show on Sunday in the morning Japan Time (+9), but anytime Sunday should be fine. Keep in mind that this is Saturday evening for those of you in the Americas
Suggested Recording Times Based on Location
Americas: Saturday evening or Sunday morning (This is Sunday morning or evening for me)
Europe and Africa: Sunday morning (This is Sunday afternoon for me)
Asia and Australia: Our times are similar. Mid-day would be best to adjust for the couple hours difference.

This is a good idea! Or maybe another newswriter, as EGZ won't be online much over the next week apparently.

Im not sure how many Dev's take notice of the madness that is the off topic section...... dont worry Im sure this will make the portal in no time...

Yes of course!
I´ll take it, perhaps you can move this thread to General?

Orb, thanks for the help with the news article. I don't think I'm able to move the thread though. Any help from the mods?
You know, this isn't open to just developers. If any of you mods would like your 10 minutes of XDA TV fame, I'm happy to interview you!

Mr. Clown moved it to General for better exposure.
Lol, it would be great to have an interview from us News Writers as we always are the one who make the interviews, lol
So I´m open to it if you think I´m eligible
Will make it sticky for the time being and will prepare an article to get you more exposure
Cheers,

The sheer silence of this thread has me terrified that I will be on a witch hunt every week. People are too shy here
Anyways, orb, I would be happy to interview you, and I'd like to get a show up this week (Wednesday) Do you have any time this weekend? (when considering time, remember that I'm on Japan Time +9)

Yeah sure!
I´m on -6GMT and I can do it Saturday or Sunday very late on my time
Let me know or PM me and we can chat via messenger or gtalk
Cheers,

I would go through the list of the ppl you have in mind and send them a PM inviting to participate, that way will be more focused in what you want to do

Post from PPCgeeks:
"No, it is not here yet.
Both the HSPL (Flash Unlock) and SIM Unlocker are completed. The final things to be worked out are the mirrors and licensing server. I will let Cmonex explain the licensing herself in more detail, but the basics are that you get one license per person and can request another one or two if needed, but the basis is to prevent mass-unlocking by someone looking to make money off of their work.
Be Patient."
There saying sometime monday now
Not to gloat...but I called it. On Thursday last week someone posted a poll on PPCG of if you think it'll be out before or after some arbitrary time the OP chose for that night. I posted that it won't be out for another week...and certainly not by the end of this weekend.
If there is one thing you can count on the Elite Team doing in regards to this release....they will consistently blow their own self-impossed release dates. I think we'll be lucky to see it before Wednesday.

Not to mention greed, maybe one of you gentleman or lady for that fact can explain to me, why do they feel they should charge for HTC\Microsoft product they tweak?, I think in fairness they need to send the money to HTC after all it is their product; They truly don't need anyone making money off their hard work either!!

Because they spend hundreds of their own hours and their own dollars so that we can fully enjoy the hardware. It's actually philanthropic -- quite the opposite to greed.
Regardless of what we do with the devices HTC/Microsoft/your Telco have made all of the money that they expected to make.
In fact this software makes certain people more likely to buy the hardware because of what they can do with it, so it actually helps them by selling more hardware.
Running this software on it so that we can get additional functionality has no negative affect to their bottom lines, so why should they get any additional money when they have done no additional work?

Forming a team to help improve our collective experience with xda-dev!

[email protected] said:
...
(end of rant - just wanted to get point across that noobs can become just as frustrated as senior members on this site)
During the past 4 months, I have discovered Stack Exchange for much of my "technical exploring" and have become very fond of the format there. Now, I am not trying to sell that site over this one... but...
I do suggest that we integrate that site into this one. Currently, there is a general Android section with some Galaxy S 4G question-and-answers. It is amazing how quickly one can get answers in the Stack Exchange system. And the answers are impressive; the riff-raff get filtered out almost immediately...
What I am recommending is not new... My computer runs Ubuntu. And, although Ubuntu has a very active forum, it also sponsors AskUbuntu which is a member of the Stack Exchange.
And, if you analyze what is happening there, you will see that the newest of the noobs are the ones who spend the most time in fora... the fora has a high rate of attrition of senior members... as they concentrate their time in the exchange... while they (as they have time/patience/desire) also visit the fora for the purpose of assisting the noobs.
The result is that both groups -- the seniors and the noobs -- benefit.
Is there a way for us to proceed on this suggestion?

TeamNerd has a domainname, google apps (gmail, calander, docs, etc for the domain), sourceforge (would like to move to googlecode, but not sure yet), but we still need dns hosting. I'm broke until I get my next paycheck to get dns service... maybe someone can temporarily host our dns so we can at least get the google apps site up, so we can start adding things to calanders and adding some docs.

Wheres the ICX game launcher gone?

What happened to the ICX game launcher. I looked on their website and couldn't find it and the threads closed, did they scrap it?
sent from my r800i using XDA app.
Good question.
I remember DeanBoro said that his Xperia PLAY's screen was broken, but that was like half a week after the topic was closed by request.
I do hope it eventually comes together soon though (and by soon, I definitely don't mean Gameloft's interpretation of the word) because I'd done nearly everything but completely delete the official launcher in anticipation of this customizable one.
I messaged DeanBoro about it after I saw the thread closed and this was his response.
"This is still under development but it is slow development at this moment because I am no longer working on it as my Play has been broken. HOWEVER another member of the team is working on it but ICX have alot of things to do at this moment in time i will inform you if there is any progress."
So I will be patient and if it comes out it comes out.

Thanks for posting this jgregoryj1.
As he quoted above. My play has been shattered and as I don't really have an income of any sort at this moment in time apart from college allowance I do not have funds at this moment (£50) which is needed to repair the phone screen. Therefore I have handed the project over to a good friend of mine who has continued development of it although the development is slow as he has many things on his plate at this moment in time.
I would say give it another 1-2 weeks and there should be a updated thread of his with information about the Launcher. ALSO I know hes a very talented developer therefore I think he will most likely port it to all android phones.
Thanks

Hi Nick, DeanBoro, just wondering how this was going or if it still is...? Not asking for ETA, just curious if it is still being developed on........ so we as a community know its not abandoned, and if it let us know. Thank you both of you for your efforts and look forward to hopefully some good news.
I told you guys this project would end up being vaporware. That became obvious after we were told it was almost ready for release and then nothing happened.
Yep same new it wasn't coming because they made up released dates about 5 times and it was apparently so close to being finished but was never released so it was probably bull **** lol.
These are the type of unhelpful comments that put developers off
Everybody on these forums has a life
Projects are started some go to completion and some dont
Promises are made some are kept and some aren't
I am sure that always with the best of intentions
Everything is provided for you free of charge be grateful if you get it, be understanding if you don't.
I f you really want it go and learn and do it yourself, the same way the developers did. and then you can share it with us.
Or maybe you won't finish your project and then I can say that you lie and are full of s**t and we will see how you feel about it.

Agreed.. could not have said it better. With attitudes like that its a wonder devs make anything at all. When I enquired to DeanBoro some time ago about this he replied to my email and said that I was the only one he replied to because it was a sincere enquiery, his mesage box was full of ungrateful jerks chewing him out for not having released this ICX Game Launcher. Also DeanBoro does NOT have a Xperia PLAY anymore as his broke and he has no means of getting a replacement jsut yet so PEOPLE STOP B!TCHING, he did say several times that he had turned the project over to another trusted developer that is on the ICX team but that due to time and other responsibilities whether or not it gets released is out of his hands..............nuff said....
SO BE PATIENT............ I will continue every now and then enquire on this thread in hopes of some news but I am not going to write up a$$hole remarks, if people want to be like that why dont YOU work on it, then when people realize that its a difficult time consuming task and its not released others can harp on you about it....PATIENCE goes a LLLLLOOOOONNNNNNGGGGG WWWWAAAAAYYYYY, and you'll live longer......

I am sure that always with the best of intentions
Everything is provided for you free of charge be grateful if you get it, be understanding if you don't.
I f you really want it go and learn and do it yourself, the same way the developers did. and then you can share it with us.
Or maybe you won't finish your project and then I can say that you lie and are full of s**t and we will see how you feel about it.

Actually, you make a good point. However, I didn't say anything bad about the devs. I only said the app was vaporware - meaning that, while the devs may have had good intentions, the app was never released. After several promised release dates came and went, it became pretty obvious this was a tougher nut to crack than first imagined. Then the main dev ran into hardware issues. Then there were NO ETAs and no news coming out for weeks. Thus it became obvious the project had been shelved. So... Vaporware.
No disrespect intended to the devs. Heck, I'd rather have them working on ROMs any day.

i'm a 3rd year computer science student. Any chance I could have the source code? I might not be able to make much happen with it, but I might be able to finish it off.
Thanks DeanBoro, appreciate all your work here!

And much much more!
You can download most recent releases at:

(Including Maclaw era too)
Sources will be available soon, after we finish cleaning up.

I have to agree with him. I have nothing against the team but, its been 3 months since we got the last update. And and that feeling of being excited is just fading. I sure hope we get a new update. Not ASAP, but surely soon. n_n
ok so everything is solved and your MONEY SCAM is also sorted out so now lets talk about UNIMPORTANT AND USELESS THINGS called UPDATE.......or wait should we enjoys other IMPORTANT discussions about SCAMS and burnt out mother board or maybe update which was to come last weekend??????
And yeah another thing what about the money donated by us which was spent by maclaw on his computer games,his parents,his gf,his bf,his dog or whoever......how are we going to get it back?????DONATIONS ALL THE WAY NO UPDATE AND YOU GUYS STILL HAVE GUTS TO SHOW DONATE BUTTON ON YOUR WEBSITE......we just wanted ics on our phone but in the end all of this got limited to a money scam and no development........i feel sorry for none other than myself for having a dream of good rom on my device which was broken by you all money thirsty people.......i will never ever believe in anything like this in my life again...thank you for all this..........

I agree. n_n
I can certainly understand why many of you are upset, but lets calm down, take a deep breath, and wait and see if new releases happen. We don't need page after page of rants that in the end accomplish nothing.
yes i agree and i am sorry for that......
hey are you people doing something with galaxyics.com as bugtracker is not [email protected]!

[Community] Help a college student FBis251 TOTAL REACHED THANK YOU!

Ok so we all know that Fbis251 lost his phone, we also know that i sent him my phone, but what you didnt know is that FBis251 had to grab $130 from his money tree in the backyard so that i could give him my sgs4g, since it was my only phone i needed something to buy a phone as well.
Now the transaction is already completed, and in all reality unfortunately FBis251 doesnt have a money tree in his backyard so that $130 was money he really didnt have.
Team Acid doesnt expect ANYTHING from the community but if you would like to help fill that hole in FBis251's pocket it would be eternally appreciated.
FBis251 is a great guy, in college, IN LA, and he has done SOO much for the sgs4g so im just trying to help him out
GOAL REACHED AND SOME!

$210/$130

It looks like the donate link is broken, but you can click on the "Donate to me" button on my forum posts and donate that way. I'll be updating dsexton with the progress.
Thanks for posting this thread sexy sexton, I really appreciate it.

Well seeing as how I just found work after a 6 month stint of leisure time I feel it's my duty to pass a little something your way. As an added bonus I just looked up all your posts and spent all 8 of my daily thanks on you. Not easy to do with the search button being broken again. So THANK YOU FB.
EDIT: Actually gave one to dsex for this thread so you only got 7. lol
10 bucks sent thru your donate button...

No one says you "have to" send fb a donation.
Maybe just send him a hug <3

I am sorry man, but I can't donate, my parents don't even let me buy apps letting alone donating 20 bucks to a guy they don't know. Nor do I have a job, money, or any cards in my wallet. Good luck though and i truly hope that you get some cash and a job.

You are using the classic theme and the donate button is not part of that theme.
That's what I was going to say, but I though that I might be wrong.
