Just a heads up to everyone, as I get a lot of PM's (which I don't mind, normally). The job that feeds my family just dumped a new project on me and I have to do 2 months worth of work in the next 7 days. You can imagine how happy I am about that. This is going to kill my days / nights and even my weekend.
I am going to release 4.1.0 today / tonight, and after that I will only be checking the site in the evenings, most likely. After this project stabilizes, I'll hopefully go back to my usual access / response time.
Apologies in advance.

Good luck, I know what tight deadlines are like.
Thanks for the heads up and hard work. Good luck with your deadline, I feel ya.
Good luck and come back soon We need you here
I'm not going anywhere - I just want to set expectations for the next week.
I know this might sound like I'm being self-important, but I do get a lot of PM's and I'm on the site daily, so I don't want people to think I just disappeared off the face of the earth.
Work? What's work? Is that some new word in the dictionary Haha! I love being retired!

Don't get upset about the suggestion, but maybe it'd be better to hold off the new release until you're not in this situation?
Just a suggestion...

I thought about that, but it was already in flight so I wanted to get it out. That one thread, and my PM's, will be the things I will consider "high priority" items to look at at least once a day.
Well if viewsonic would just give you the $M you deserve for improving user experience you could just coast
Handle your business and I applaud your dedication to the G Tab.
Thank you

Hey now worries! The day job is what pays for the toys Just take care of what needs your attention... we will all survive until you free up again! I just came off one of those projects so I understand what ya gotta do to keep the lights on !!!
Good Luck!!!
You left us in good hands. TnT Lite 4.1.0 is working well. Good Luck. I've lived through many of my own unreasonable situation at work.
roebeet - you've done as much for this community as anybody, if not more. No need to feel bad about taking care of your real job and, in turn, your family, for the next few weeks. We appreciate all the time you've devoted to making the G Tab a great device.
Not to mention but while your gone.... You have all of us to answer ALL the questions! We will hook you right up! In just a matter of days we will have everyone thinking TnTLite is what controls the Space Shuttle, and there car. The market will work and it will all be free, and the G Tablet will have GPS and actually know where it is!...
You sure you want to do this?
Have fun at your real job... This little old tablet will be fine
Thanks Roebeet!

Would you would like CM7 on your Thunderbolt? Slayher is going to get it done with the communities help. He currently supports CyanogenMod on the Droid Incredible as part of the Team, http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php?title=Community_Members
If you can skip Dunkin Donuts, the bagel, etc for a day or two and donate this will not take very long. I will be posting this on several forums and linking back here, lets keep this thread clean and to the point of getting a TBolt into Tony's hands...hopefully on release day.
Donations for Slayher's ThunderBolt.
THANKS EVERYONE, Slayher has received enough donations from the community to support CM7 on the Thunderbolt!
Big Thanks to ChevyBoy as he donated the difference himself so Slayher can buy the TBolt today.
Bsthemes donated.

Slayher, I'm going to double my donation. Jcase is forwarding what I was going to give him, to you.
Donated! Cyanogen is the main reason I upgraded from the Droid X. I love my X, but really wanted an unlocked boot loader for this very reason
This just made my day!!! This is the reason I am getting another HTC after selling my Sexy Nexy and now working for VZW. Can't wait to get this thing going. Donation coming soon!
I'm all about CM7 support, donated!

just donated. Preordered my Thunderbolt from Wirefly yesterday, but I doubt I'll actually activate it until CM7 is available. I'm running it on my Droid right now and loving it!
Awesome, just donated. I wonder if LTE is going to be a problem on CM for awhile?

Awesome!! Good luck. Any ETA on CM7 support for the TB?
Nice! Can't wait to get rid of my Eris for the TB. Can't wait to play with Cyanogen on it.
So I come back from my very first day off from work in two weeks and find my thread closed? What gives?
I'm sorry, I do have a life outside of XDA. FYI, I'm an adult with a mortgage, two car payments, a wife, a 15 month old daughter, and a live-in mother-in-law. I've worked everyday for the past two weeks and because you guys haven't had any updates you close my thread?
I was planning on releasing the update I've been working on during the nights when I haven't come home and just passed out, which HAS the working power menu and battery mods not to mention testing throughout the past 3 days to make sure there were no bugs, but you know what, I think I'll just sit on it.
Thanks for nothing, maybe I'll see you over in the G2x forums in a month or so.

wow... really? so does that mean a mod just randomly closed it? lol. i sent one of my GS4Gs to Krylon360 today. UPS tracking # is 1Z0209FW0303104104. so keep going on this phone man... it's a great phone. just needs some dev love.
I thought that was a bit strange to of locked it as well, especially since there was no mob posting at the end explaining why it was locked. Maybe it was a mistake? Don't hold out on use because of a mistake, we love your work! I understand life gets stressful outside of xda, heck I figured you were close to releasing something new anyways based on the your steady flow of updates.
I hope to see your thread reopened and to continue seeing you around here until the 20th or so when you move on I'll probably follow in stride with you there too, but I got to get these 2 phones taken care of first unfortunately.
Damn shadowman....give em hell. I personally would like to thank you for your work. I hope you change your mind. Either way thanks.
hit up Mr. Clown to see why it was closed. I've been busy job hunting so haven't been keeping up on stuff.
I hope you reconsider not posting here too, Shadowman. No one here knows who closed your post or why they did. Obviously some mod screwed up. But please don't hold that against the entire community.
Your rom is excellent work and many of us are grateful for all of your efforts to jump start sgs4g development. So thank you! And yes--for what it's worth--I'm sure most of us are very patient here. I for one have life and job issues too--so I completely understand time away...

yeah man! I was wondering why the thread was close! considering this is the only custom rom we have! I've been doing support while you were gone and the next thing I know it was closed! this is a bummer!
I'm sure it was a mistake, I don't think they would close a thread for that reason? please don't give up on us, this is the only rom we have...
Sounds like we have mods trying to sabotage this phone too? what the heck man..
It's gotta be a mistake man, some mod just got confused or slipped up. There's no reason that thread should be locked. Take a deep breath, check back in a few hours, I'm sure it'll get cleared up.
Hey shadow.
Good to see it wasn't just you leaving. We all obviously appreciate what you do. I thought it was strange that the thread just closed. I am sure if you pm Mr.clown he will open it up. He was in here closing a few other threads that deserved to be closed. I bet yours was by accident.
Anyways, glad to see your still around.

Hello everyone, I'm Indirect and while most of you have no idea who I am, I was politely asked to come help you all out for development towards downgrade / s-off on your devices. Now, as much as I would LOVE to help, I can only do so much without the actual device. I know this sounds like mooching, annoying, etc that some other "developers" do to try and gain attention but I'm sure you can see that I've made progress in just a few short hours as you can see here So I would like to now ask the community I'm trying to help if they would be willing to help me out as well and have my job be just a bit easier. I own multiple devices that I work on (Evo View 4G tablet, Nook Tablet, Nexus S 4G) and I develop for the evo shift when I can get around to it, but since I am not 18 and unemployed, I can't really go out and just throw down cash for a mytouch. Developing is essentially my career, balance that with school and my life gets hectic. So, if you read on, you will see how much I'm working towards.
What I need vs What I have:
Bought a device and it had a board failure within 2 hours... -- edit: RMA'd this one
New device, killed that one and since it has a void sticker broken and I'd rather not send it to HTC for moral reasons, I want to have it JTAG'd.
Well guys. I bricked 2 MT4GS while helping test s-off. Looks like I need to RMA one and JTAG the other. What do I need? Well, it cost 40$ + shipping. I can eat the shipping costs, but I can't crap out 40$. .__. So, any help is appreciated. OP has been updated with this post as well as a total amount vs what I need.

What I need vs what I have for JTAG:
10$ / 60$
^ Donate button
Edit: Switched links. Found a cheaper one for 220~
This is the device that I am wanting to buy because it's the cheapest one on ebay, has free shipping, and available for buy it now. So if you want to help, just click the donate button and I'll save up for it. I would really prefer to get this thing bought as soon as possible so I can get cracking on that bootloader.
hi, it's nice to see someone giving our device some attention
btw, i have a side question: do you have kernel dev experience too?

I know some stuff about the kernel, but not atm enough to get a custom kernel up and running. Also guys, I seriously only have 1$ to my name, pretty sure it won't be enough. Lol.
This would be fantastic - I was working with this character last night in IRC and he's got the enthusiasm necessary backed up by the knowledge we need to get in our corner of XDA.
People are complaining from time to time about the anemic development here in the MT4GS forums, well, here is a way of increasing that dev.
If people aren't interested or able in picking up the torch themselves to get involved in development, then helping someone like this get a device in their hands will help us all out.
Normally i'm not such a fan of this but this is the real deal - we get a device in his hands and we WILL see more dev around here.
Look at the progress he's already helped us make towards the S-OFF issue - we got past getting the misc.version put in place and unraveled another layer of the issue, now we are stuck on hboot being our block.
Not bad for someone without a physical device in their hands, eh? Imagine what he could help us with not having to work proxy through one of us...

Wow, I'm now hooked; don't know why I waited so long. Not much of a poster, though I do keep up with all the posts. Thanks for the dedication and commitment to the skyrocket forum.
