New member - Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)

Hello all,
This is simply an introduction.
I've had my Galaxy S since May, yes first android, and XDA has been THE most visited/read site! (In all actuality this site is the reason that I still have my phone.)
I have learned so much that I feel indebted to this site and the developers that make this site what it is...
Though I would like to thank everyone by name... I just don't know them all, and they are many.
As smart as this community is as a whole, I'm certain you all know who I'm talking about...
So, from the bottom of my bionix black ice; bali 3.1uv; fugu + init.d7; oc'd to 1.5; ext4; bloat free Samsung Galaxy S 4g... THANK YOU ALL!!

I have to say that this site along with my own experimenting has made me VERY familiar with odin. My phone performs so much better now because of the people here and there is always someone there ready to help when something does not go as planned. Thank you for this.

CM7 Date?

When will we get CM7? Don't meant to rush, just want an estimated time.
Sent from my SGH-T959V using XDA App
There is no eta. There is a project underway being led by Krylon360 so I have no doubt it will be available eventually.
I don't mean to be a d*ck but it is considered bad form to ask for etas from independent development. They mostly do this stuff out of love for the work usually in their spare time. If they have an eta for a project they will post it with updates. If they don't, that means there isn't one. Fyi.

Cm is no safer than any other rom in development stages. And yes, it is bad form to ask how long for anything. You need to understand that we devs and modders do this from the kindness of our hearts and for experience. This is the kind of question that pisses a dev off.

Not many people made a thread dedicated to it. I want CM7 the most probably of anyone on this site but it takes time. Its being worked on you're better asking for the progress on it.
Wow guys he already got the point to never ever ask something in xda holy **** people why you always trying to scare off the new ones, yeah I know the question is irritating and all but one person answering the question in a straight and cold answer was more than enough he already said sorry and you guys keep on flaming on the guy just let it slide it was an honest mistake.

Well its been an experence with you guys really. But at the moment im prob going to follow in krylons footsteps and be purly rootzwiki sorry its not xda... Xda is a great site. But with THe constant Trolling pretty much almost nit pick the roms to death hey guys to build audiophile do you realize its taken me litterly as much time as i spent at work i spent more time helping people install roms fix roms fix pretty much any issue. We are Devs we are not servents. Yes we try to take your advice and wants but we have to think of the community as a whole not the individual.
Sorry if my roms didnt live up to peoples expitatons As i have always stated im not a rom person but i can build them but sorry people have expetations that i cant meet and or features i wanna bring that i been working on i cant give it to you instantly. I will still support all of Team acid rom bug fixes i will allow my work to be reposted from rootzwiki to xda but as a whole I cant read though 50 pages of trollfest to see if someone has a issue i opened up a irc chat room in hopes we could give live support and whatnot to people and pretty much other then 5 people isnt used.. NOt saying its a requirement.
I wish u all the best of luck take care

Thank You and see you there!
Double posted, my bad
I know there are a lot of dumbasses and annoying noobs on XDA but to me the good members completely outweigh the bad members here. We can always ignore the dumb members. It's just a common side effect that happens when a forum gets big and popular. And I guarantee once RootzWiki gets more popularity it will as well get its fair share of obnoxious members.
There's slow development going on as it is for this phone over here, but I don't see what moving there would do when there's nothing interesting for this phone in that forum except for "A post your home screen thread"...
Like I said, there's more good members here than bad. Your decision is yours and that's fine, but I'm sure I speak for everyone when i say that I hope you come back. Or at the very least be on both forums.
Anyways, good luck! And thanks for the continuing contribution.

I will miss you here, having you on xda made it feel like a great place to be. Losing krylon and now you all of the good developers are leaving for one reason or another. You made my phone better, and you were going to make gingerbread awesome. I have much respect for all of the developers and the work that they do, its time consuming and sometimes frustrating, and everyone seems to demand more and more.

Yeah the infuses xda section is falling apart to be honest. I think that the moderator needs to completely wipe the Infuses section except for ROMS, modems, and other development tools. We need a fresh start at development. Does anyone elese agree? Or am I just ranting?

The infuse is falling apart, our development is ruined. We do have a few great devs, but not enough that can truly make this a good phone. New ports are coming everyday, but seems like people running the aosp roms (not me lol) seem to just want updates and updates only. Not to go hating on people, but please, please be nice and lets make this change!
It would be nice but I don't really see anything changing, too many new and better phones, it just seems the devs get bored quick and jump to the next best thing. Can't really blame them but it would be nice if the infuse could spake some more interest.

Dude you should do it. Maybe you could just release it every 2 weeks or so and then if anyone gives you any bull or something then just ignore them. I Understand how jordan got mad and there were people giving him crap, but shutting it down is like killing off a lot of people who loved it lol (I never tried it). I think there should be a main post stickied saying read this, and saying how if there is any bull, it will not be tolerated and you will be ignored. Someone should seriously do that haha!
There needs to be a weekly or even monthly port and no comments. If you have questions GO TO THE Q AND A SECTION! That way we can still get our sweet sweet rom and the douche bags can go flame else where.

I think more of us would step in to help after seeing what happened last time. That being said, the age for getting smartphones is getting lower and lower. There are a lot of little ****s on xda now, so the devs have to have a bit thicker skin IMO.

Umm maybe try looking in themes and apps? Are you expecting us to look for you and supply links? Ask and ye shall NOT receive.
And if your going to ask a stupid question (yes there is such a thing, contrary to what your mother would have you believe) at least put it in the right section. This has nothing to do with development.

Personal Opinion

I have had my Skyrocket for a week now. I use to have a Captivate. The Dev's and the community were fantastic. Here are my first impressions of the Dev's and community for the Skyrocket. Are you kidding me?! Really?! This is what I should expect?! Seriously, In the last week I have seen the Dev's, themers, and modders take a leaked ICS rom and turn into rooted, debloated, several roms, kernals, themes, tweaks and mods and more coming to fast to keep up with. Beyond amazing all of you! I'm in awe. And the community is awesome. I like my new phone. I love its new home. Thanks to all
Yeah, the devs around here really bust their asses. They deserve all the thanks, kudos, and brews they get.
I have to say, even looking in the T989 forum. so many less apps, and roms, and tips, and tweaks and other usefull stuff, and we basically have the same phone. I LOVE the skyrocket community.
Seems like a lot of x-cappy owners went with the rocket. You'll enjoy the crowd here. Welcome. Keep up if you can!

The cappy is a good little phone. Just didn't have a flash for camera or a good gps. I still have 3 cappies "customized" for the ladies in the family. But, Daddy's got the Skyrocket
Welcome! I'm an ex-Cappy owner myself. Awesome development on that phone. I'd say at least 75% of Skyrocket owners on XDA upgraded from the Captivate.
I've been with the Skyrocket community here on XDA since right after the phone came out, and it took a long time to get where we are today. Those early days were slow with not much available, but things have really exploded recently, in awesome ways.
The Skyrocket community is one of the best you'll find anywhere on XDA. We have a couple of dedicated trolls, but they're actually just good people having fun (I'm looking at you nrm!!!). We're a good bunch. Again, welcome!
