The "Wes Garner Get Well Soon" Fund Raiser

So I just read this and I know he's had the Donate link in his sig the whole time, but I really think a thread right now would be appropriate. I know I've been waiting for the next OpenEclair release, but I think it's time to show the devs some love again. I'm starting it off with $5; whose with me?
Twitter -Best ****ing luck ever... I have H1N1 - should have gotten that damn shot (only got the regular one a few months back)

yeah man come on this thread shouldnt be here, I appreciate the satire of it but still ,this should in the proper place

i'd be willing to donate once the fund goes through a month or two of closed beta testing.

wow alot of ungrateful disrespectful people on xda, the guy has a serious flu and you guys are cracking jokes. i had H1N1 back last fall, one of the worse things ive ever gone through. get better wes lots of rest and water.

yea i had the h1n1
got everyone at work infected with it too HA
thats why i dont call in sick !
get well wes
its a *****
esp if you like to smoke lol

wes,
try adb to patch it with "1010", maybe it'll turn into "mt3g"
no really, best wishes for a speedy recovery...

I'm sure even Wes would prefer this thread not be here..... at least it's better than the "Get King a new phone" thread someone started

haha yea thanks for the thought, but if anyone donates because I'm sick... well that's just crazy haha
I'm feelling ok - seem to be only having the stomach probs (none of the sinus yet)
My boss was like well what the heck you're getting a full two week vacation now and is now calling me 'H1N1' as a nickname hah
But, yea... no one donate lol that's just strange

noob, I hope you're not actually leaving. It saddens me to hear this, especially after I just tried out your amazing start on Cyanogen and considering how much you really helped get Epic development started.
I can't say that I'm too surprised considering how vocal the haters are. Please know this, while the trolls and all the immature kiddies maybe louder, there is a whole community of Epic owners who really appreciate what you've done and have a lot of respect for your work.
May I ask where/what you'll be heading next?
Whatever happens noob, I wish you the best.

[Q] UPDATE: morfics Dev fund

UPDATE:
Fist of all, BIG thanks to all that donated! This was a very awesome and unselfish thing that you all were a part of. As all of you might have read, and in case you didn't, morfic said:
"Thanks everyone, I'll be working on things this weekend, just gotta stay out of trouble with wife, so no feature promise.
In case anyone else feels compelled to still donate: Think who really helped you, find their donate button and donate to them!"
Thanks,
Daniel
Sent from my G2x
With all that being said I will talk to him later and see what the plan is for the first release. Check back here for updates all this weekend. If you don't already, I recommend that all the donators follow http://twitter.com/#!/morfique. Updates will probably be posted there sooner than here.

id say only people that donate to him can use the pre released beta/alpha kernels he makes....
but that never really seems to work and get alot of interest...
(EDT/TW websites)
i think maybe every dollar we donate to him he should also add to the pot...
i.e. i donate 15 bucks he puts in 15 bucks
so its not all of the community paying for his device just helping him
or maybe he should send out thank you android cards made from his blood and sweat to anyone that donates.....
lol i dunno but i will for sure donate thats all that matters i guess

Count me in

Count me in, not only is he a great kernel developer but he's a real good guy.

Yes he is a great dev. I'll set up a fund somewhere, let me see what i can do. Might not get to this tonight but i will get to it. I have been talking to him all day today and he is a great guy. Just for the record I will probably be throwing in 50 bucks myself.
I would like to ask you people if you have time, can you try to help spread the word?

In terms of a fund, why don't you have one of the mods here hold onto it. Mikey1022 and Ryanmo5 are good guys. That way people knew it was going to the right cause Just a thought

im in for 15 as well. i havent personally used any of his work since i've never owned a vibrant, but i've certainly heard a lot about him.
always feels good to help out someone who can help us out as well.

Mikey? Is there is a release schedule for your ROM?

Hey Mikey I was wondering if you have any release schedule soon? I think if everyone chipped in and donated and reached your goal, do you think you have an idea when you ROM might come online?
Else I can say its only fair to roll the money over to another developer.... Just saying.

this doesnt belong in development. and A) did you send the guy money? if yes you did it with no contract or obligation. if you have regrets there is nothing anyone can really do to help that. and B) dont pester the devs, the guy was highly requested. people were just throwing money at him, it's been a couple days since he actual recieved the phone in his hands and now you want to take that money back?

You gotta be kidding me...

if people pestered me to buy a device that i didnt want so i could make a rom then pestered me to get the rom out on a schedule i would make them wait too.

Hey I was just asking.... I wasn't pestering him nor do I know him on a personal basis.... so I wouldn't have an idea if he bought the device or not. Yes I donated money to him this time and I donated money for his serendipity rom on the cappy as well.
Its just a question... just to see whats going on... Did I say to have the money back? Noooo...
As well as there are devs such as GTG who is throwing up great ROMs in the meantime....
If people are chipping in money to get him a device, I was just asking whether if he was working on it.
Don't be such flametards as like I am asking him for a software release schedule or some ****....

The last sentence of your original post was rude since he just purchased the device. We all appreciate your donation to help but do not expect a ROM from him in 1-2 days. It is a donation without commitment on time from him. Based on Mike's work on other ROM's from the Captivate, I expect we will see great things from him on the Infuse in the near future. Your approach could have been better and posted in the correct forum.

Perhaps we can send you a donation to cover the donation you made to him to release you from this torture? Seriously dude, give the man time and you will be better respected around here. Asking to move your donation to another developer after the guy just bought the phone is uncalled for at this time.Can you whip up a decent new ROM from a new phone in a day?

Maybe you know him personally, but I didn't know he just bought a phone. Last I heard in the general thread, which was like 2 weeks ago, he was too busy and didn't have time to buy a phone....
I didn't say anything after that.... so I thought ok, well maybe he won't have time to work on a rom for this phone....
And seriously, did I say it was torture? I merely asked a question... Really??

Yes, he announced in another thread that he got it on Monday. I do not have the link but he has it. I apologize about my remarks since you did not know however, you can be a little more polite in your initial post asking if he even has it by eliminating your last sentence in your original post and posting to General forum since this is not actual development.
Maybe try sending him a PM instead next time especially since you donated. Again, we all appreciate your donation to make this possible. Just have a little patience and I am sure we will have a great new ROM soon.

sorry dude, you lose, big fail on the OP.... You basically said hurry up or give it to someone else... MAYBE if you did a little searching of his recent posts, you would know he bought one 2 days ago...

Some more update hope to leave us hanging!

On the Lg forums.. Think he's telling the truth? I guess this is better then nothing at all.
Posted by SmartPhoneGeek on 28 Jun 2011 18:53 PM:
As much as I hate to I have to keep things very generic and can't talk about details until an official release is announced. Hopefully my generic comments are better than nothing for you.
It's been working very well for me with improvements everywhere. I'm actually surprised this is not the final version as it feels pretty solid to me. Seeing how well this version is working it seems as if they must be close to completion. And if this version did not pass testing then they must really be putting a lot of emphasis on quality.
http://www.lgforum.com/forum/boards...artphonegeek-dot-dot-dot-its-another-week-and

Those guys are idiots. Seriously. Where was all that testing before the phone was released? Stop playing games... Some people have barely functioning phones and they are stay tight lipped about everything. How about a small patch just to fix the rebooting in the interim? No? Nothing.
No issues with my phone, just frustrated at their handling.
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA App

if some people have "barely functioning phones" it isn't a software upgrade they need.

Well, SmartPhoneGeek is probably the nicest and most responsive mod on the LG forums. I'll give him the benefit of the doubt and say that he's probably telling the truth.

I don't think anyone intends to lie. I think they are guilty of embelishing what they have heard or think. We take that embelishment and do critical reviews to the tune of multiple threads with alot of views and replies.
I would think the 1place you could get controlled information that is close to the source would be lg's own forum. They may not be reading from a script but betcha they are reading from something close to official.
From the sounds of it, 2 more weeks. I think someone here said July 15th....and the winning number is...

how about instead of a bunch of half-witted liars testing it they give us a dump of what they have so far, release the source code and let us test it and the devs help out with the process
