Why joo close my thread?
Seriously though, I think there is a different between saying 'whats the best rom' and 'whats your favorite rom'
Whats the best rom can't be answered because that comes down to personal choice, however whats your favorite rom is asking what roms people have liked and if anything encourages people to flash more roms and try them all thus get more donations out to the makers of these roms that people might not have tried without reading about someone elses experience with that rom.
Anyways I just think there should be like one thread where people can talk about the roms they like. Not saying any roms are better than any other ones, just talking about roms!
What do you guys think?
*pls dont flame me*
I agree. My personal favorite is Andromeda simply because all the other ones suck ass. I'm not saying it's the best, just that based on my criterion of not sucking ass Andromeda is my favorite.
I'm just kidding about other ROMs sucking ass. Quite a few don't.

Because what you stated is bound to happen lol.
Sad but true, but someone is going to say "well this made my gps outstanding!!" and some other jackass will say "well that bricked my phone"..... Blah blah blah, someone is bound to flame and turn the thread into a pissing match.
Should have sent this in a PM instead of questioniing how a mod operates in the forum. If you simply spend some time reading, like I said in your previous thread, you can get a pretty good idea what ROMs are the most used (and therefore, favorite) of many of the users in here. Scanning the sigs of members who have more than 30 posts and have been here awhile also provides some insight. The question is the same, best...favorite, it all comes down to what YOU want out of a ROM and how YOU plan to use it. My favorite might not be yours, so what value does telling you I love Andromeda 1.2 really have? None, until you try it for yourself.
Oh, and if you need more clarification, try this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=919816
Since you obviously can't see the Stickies.
Thats a good point, yeah I just wanted to get other people on the forums opinions though. I dunno I just think that these threads are being made everyday for a reason, people wanna talk about the roms they like and hear about the roms other people like. Yeah its still down to preference but whats wrong with it? If people start flaming or talking **** about other roms then delete the thread, I really doubt people will do that though. Most people on this forum love flashing roms and want to try them all anyways. So why cant we talk about the ones we currently like!
Edit: And I'm not asking about this because I'm lazy and don't want to look at all the roms myself, I already have and I have flashed quite a few already. And there are lots of cool ones out there that aren't the most popular.
We should have a poll. But no posting allowed, just vote and carry on.
Like they do for the device of the year awards.

The reason Best Rom Threads and Fav threads get closed so fast is that it all comes down to personal choice as each rom can and has run differently on each device.
Thread Closed.

So this does not tell you why he closed your thread?
I can't wait to see how long this thread takes to get locked. Individual ROM threads do enough for people to decide on what might or might not work well. Ultimately as you have already been told, you will need to just flash different ROM's because my favorite might not work on your phone.
They also get closed because it becomes a flame fest. And yes. Please just pm zel next time.

it's just too much needless thread
you made 4 new threads in the last few days with leaked ROMs
are you working on them?
if not, than leave them. Devs, who want to make some Sense 3 port or 2.3.4 port, they usually know the 911sniper blog well
and one was the cha cha, thats a mdpi phone made just for facebook things, so pointless here
Guys, please stop flaming this guy for posting the leaks here. He just may have thought it might be useful to the devs.
I think he now knows that it most likely is not.
I appreciate his enthusiasm tho, even tho I know the devs already use the 911 blog.
appreciate you posting these rom leak's but please check if it could be ported to DHD or it is use full in any way in porting sense 3.0
We have too many rom's as it is running sense 3.0 non yet to become stable

it's nice, that he wants to help the devs by letting them know, that there are new leaks, but there are somuch thread in dev section, that sometimes you can find your ROMon the 2nd, 3rd page
it should be more organized
for ex. making one thread, and just change the name when there is/are a new leak or new leaks
and in my opinion it's not development, as nobody is working on porting these. It's not a dev who created a thread to get help from other people to port something, it's more like news

Thats the first the i noticed comming from WinMO dev. Winmo chefs are helping eachother out alot. Ive learned from the greatest and ive shared alot of info and helped trying to keep the community strong.
Switching to Android an open source OS i expected everything to be easier and friendlier but sadly its not the case.
Chefs are competing and not willing to share or help out.
Winmo dev forums have pre made kitchens, tutorials etc.
Tons of Dev topics here but as soon as a dev question is asked its ignored or treated like youre asking about a x-file.

this is simply not true. just look at all the rom threads here and you will find thanks and credits to most of the other devs out here. they are all working together.
the reaction in and on this thread has nothing to do with what you said here.
This went the wrong way...
The point was not to flame the forum with useless leaks..
It would be great to make LEAK thread and than keep it uptodate..

funny. i have observed again the opposite. there are several new cooks here that got pretty fast help from anybody. in my case the only chef here that still enver replied to a pm was capychimp (not meant as offense, who knows why he didn't).
there never was an "inner circle".
but i must admit, that is what i observed during the past, myself not trying to start a rom myself. but i saw severel doing this.
but your claim only based on this small experience is to say the least very exagerating and provocative. to conlude that the devs here are not helping out and sticking to a inner circle just because you had bad luck with some pms is a bit... well you know what.
p.s. if you want a kind dev i can very recomend you lee.
Hello Community,
This is mostly for my informational purposes, but id really appreciate it if everyone would cast their vote as to which rom they are on currently. This can also serve in the short term as an informational compass to point new users twards a rom to try out. All votes in the polls are appreciated!
Thanks,
HaiKaiDo
Nevermind...
Dude, give it up. Whether you like it or not, the forum management do NOT like these kinds of posts that put the work of developers into a popularity contest. And leaving out Andromeda, one of the most popular ROMs in here, just makes the poll look silly.

I was asked by the forums mod to repost this and that he was going to lock it and sticky it so that posts like this would no longer happen and people would be able to vote without flaming. Also Apex and Andromeda will be added.

I do not see anything wrong with a thread like this. Maybe it can prevent some additional threads about what rom is best for me.
And by the way, screw you for not including asop roms, my vote is miui. (just kidding on the screw you, kinda)

That verbiage right there makes this little more than a popularity contest. New users should be reading up on any ROM they want to try, not making decisions based on the number of people using a particular ROM. The power users are switching ROMs pretty regularly, some on a daily basis, so how should they vote in this poll? The only way anyone interested in modding their phone with a custom ROM will get the info they need is to READ THE FORUM and invest the time to know what they're doing. They will only run into problems if they simply look at a thread like this, pick the one with the most votes and go at it. That's the natural tendency of humans and it goes against the grain of what users in here should be doing. There are no shortcuts.

come on man seriously , no need to stay here and set fire to my thread AGAIN. For whatever reason the mod that said he was going to lock this and sticky it has disapeared for the moment, but i suppose when he gets back all these posts will be deleted and the OP can be used to exactly what it was intended. Just a collection of data, not a popularity contest, not a noob guide to tell them what rom to install. Its just a small collection of data to see what the community is upto.
I didn't post a thing in your last thread, so don't blame me for that one being closed. The reality is that your poll is flawed simply because you limited it to only 2.3.x ROMs. That will not give a clear picture of what ROMs are being used since it omits some very fine 2.2 ROMs like Andromeda and the many users still on stock Froyo and Eclair. That renders it pretty useless as far as a statistical analysis and dangerous as it might convince some to jump to a Gingerbread ROM before they know what the consequences might be. Don't we have enough people in here with bricks and flashing problems? Why contribute to it?
just move on and don't vote

Sent From My Fingers To Your Face.....
Okay lets clear this up....
I DID tell the OP to repost this thread.
Heres why.....
I agree with the rest of you that "best" rom threads are pointless and often offensive. I do not allow "best" rom threads in any of the sections I moderate.
However, this thread was not supposed to be about whats "best".
The intention was to set the poll, stick the thread and close it to prevent the usual barrage of venom and verbal diarrhea that goes with the aforementioned "best" rom threads.
I for one am curious as to how the userbase of a particular device is split between the various roms on offer and I think its a shame that there is no way to utilise the poll option to asess this.
I spoke to the OP about this and it was clear to me that he did not want to encourage discussion about whats "best", just collect the numbers out of curiousity so I agreed to give this a go....
As it stands, its not possible to close a thread and leave the poll open so it looks like we'll never know.
Please, we need to start CM7. It is not hard at all for this phone, even the vibrant and captivate, which came on eclair have it. And the Galaxy s 2 even has it now. Also the year old Galaxy S 19000 has it. We need to do so.
Hasn't this been discussed several times in the past two weeks? I am pretty sure it has been! It is in the works.
If it is so easy to do then why havent i seen your cm7 rom posted here yet?
and next time dont post **** like this there are like 10 of these damn threads on here.
the devs here are hard at work giving people great roms....so all these *****ing and moaning threads need to stop....if it was so f***n easy people then everyone on here would be posting roms

Airfluip, I hope you're trolling.
Ohhh boy are you gonna get flamed for this.
It's not as easy as you think. Vibrant and the SGS4G are very different in many aspects.
Plus you have to consider the dev ratio from here and the Vibrant Forums. There's only like 3 devs on the SGS4G and only one working on CM7. So it wouldn't be fair to compare it to the Vibrant.
Air its really hard cause its just krylon deving it. 1 person! Other phones have like more than a couple. So one person had to make a whole new kernel new mods modems and tweaks. Just really hard. Plus you need to make sure its encoded for cwm flashablw
Sent from my SGH-T959V using XDA App
I know you make some good posts here, but you seriously sound like someone that thinks they're entitled to these things.
There's some things to consider about getting CM7. One thing is that krylon360 is building this from scratch. All the developers on this forum have mentioned that the SGS4G is very much different from the Vibrant. Another is the popularity of this device. The I9000 and Vibrant have CM7, because they're older and more people have them. Not much people wanted to make the jump to the SGS4G. Although the SGSII is newer, it had so much more popularity than the SGS4G because of its power.
So, all in all, not as easy as you think.
OK, I didn't mean to offend anyone.
A. Somebody rudely accused me and stated that why I didn't make it myself if it is so easy. Answer, because i don't have time as I am a Freshman in High School
B. I didn't even know that krylon was working on one, and I would happily help him when I have free time.
You have to understand that everyone is feeling anxious to use CM7. It has been a while since GB was launched and our phone has been here since Feb.

Yes everyone wants it but not everyone keeps asking where it is and when will it be done. Keep in mind that the sgs4g has about 3 dedicated devs. Dsexton who has his own line of roms Raver who has his own line of roms and I think does not even own the phone and krylon who works in a lot if different projects is building cm7 from scratch and just got the phone. It will come just have patience.

come on, guy.. You already knew it was being worked on. You posted almost the exact same question less than 2 weeks ago:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1206406&highlight=CM7
There is no need to make an entirely new thread asking the same question, especially when there are threads about the actual development of CM7 that you could easily be following. You should probably subscribe the the 2-3 CM7 threads on this forum, to keep yourself up to date.

You should have used the search feature. To search for a thread you created for CM7. Not a person was being verbally abusive, they were simply stating that there are several threads created on the subject, and one of which was created by you. Put simply, dev or not, if a thread is created on a subject that already exists multiple times, I will point it out. That doesn't mean I don't respect the work you devs do for us.

Point taken, and I do apologize! It is wrong to assume that none of us respect anyone, when there are clearly a majority of us DO respect and appreciate the time and effort you guys put into the phone.
IMO, this thread should just be closed to prevent further flaming.

He got tired of the BS that goes on around here. He said that he was tired of answering question that could be answering by people just doing a little research, and was also tired of people not following the "rules." I completely understand his frustration. He wrote a huge post about it which I think can be found in the gerneral section titled "thinking of leaving XDA" or something like that. He even said he was thinking of disappearing and keeping his work to himself. I do not know if he has stopped deving or just went somewhere else. But god I hope he hasn't stopped deving for us.
Damn noobs making all the mistakes, yet we get the consequences aswell.

Regardless, you can follow his work on github:

...See ya, I'm out... kinda. Still working on this phone, I just don't care to partake in the xda shenanigans anymore. Yup, sourceforge and github are where I do stuff.
See: http://bhundven.users.sourceforge.net for more... it should also point you to teamacid, teamnerd, and my personal stuff.
A few senior moderators have pm'd me, and I reexplained my opinion on xda, which they seem to agree with.
This site is called: xda-developers
I think this site needs to go back to being a place for "DEVELOPERS", like it once was.
The "Thinking of leaving..." post was deleted (afaik) because the users started to act unrully in it. Go figure. Good job guys.
But what I stated in that thread, and I will restate here. I'm not done developing, but I don't have a lot of time to work on this stuff. I'm close to getting cm7 to boot, but I will guess that after it works, and there will be lots of fixes before it is stable for users to use. So even if I get cm7 booting I won't release it right away. I do not want to push out a rom that doesn't work right. (well, good enough for me).
do what you gotta man. you have my full support. just wish people were as patient as i am. keep up the awesome work. also, if you need any help with anything, just let me know. i'm willing to test things out and also willing to help out with any graphical ideas. you know how to reach me.

I actually had some free time and i decided to read alot of the threads last night and i can see why you all get so frustrated with people asking "when will you be done??" "how does this work??" I had to read for about three days on just how to even root.. let alone flash my first rom.. but we all wont learn everything if we dont take the time to read it fully ( I love the whole trial and error of it.) Im by all means am not tech savvy but this site has all the answers to ALL the questions to ALL the beautiful roms on this site.. kernel's, roms, baseband, builds, and even mods.. all work in conjunction with eachother.. for me its like putting my own perfect puzzle together to my liking.. Brian has helped me out alot.. Ive only been a member on this site for a short period of time and it pains me that you all feel this way.. Im not a dev.. Im a nurse.. I do know from my career it can be frustrating from people asking the same questions over and over and over.. Ive asked alot of questions and you all have been so helpful to me.. Im just sorry you all feel this way.. I remember signing up a few months ago i watched the video and i got it.. there are alot of different personalities on this site some good some bad.. its just sad that a few "idiots" have got to screw it up for the rest of us that are willing to learn... Ive learned alot in my two months of being here and i just wanted to take the time and say thanks to all of you.. I love this site im on it all the time.. for me personally its a great site my Favorite period.. its just sad that all this ignorance would cause a great person to leave.. thanks Brian for all you have helped me with.. blessings to you and your family man..
Thanks bryan we will never forget you as u have done a big change to our phone... may the good Lord bless and keep you,, will always be at your side..
I am also thinking of migrating to rootz. I already have an account.
So I am reposting my rom over there. See me if you wish. I will respond to pm, and I will post rom updats and "Link Up" etc....
