I'm one of those people who browse threads, read, and do my best to learn without asking questions. i have never really had a big reason to post replies to anything. everything i ever need or want for info is always here somewheres on this site.
This is my thank you to all of you developers and senior posters that make XDA great and keeps XDA just a little bit above the rest.
I am genuinely appreciative of everything you all contribute to the android world.
Please keep up the good work.
I totally agree, dude. these folks need some love.
Couldn't agree more!!!
Great work, It is much appreciated.
Agreed. not just in the Gtablet forum but in every forum as well. No one asks these people to do all these wonderful things for our devices... they just do
Thank you devs!
And also thank you XDA staff for all the behind the scenes work you do.
:d:d:d:d
thank you!!!
:d:d:d:d
Many thanks
Just sending out thanks for all the work the developers do to make the devices we love to use the best they can be.
i agree. if it wasn't for the people here at xdev and other sites like it, the gtab would have died an ugly death long ago. i have gained so much knowledge just from reading all the questions and posts. i've donated a couple of times and encourage others to do the same if you can. if not, thumbs up and thanks at least lets them know their efforts are appreciated.

This is just an appreciation thread for all those at xda-developers that have helped me make the most out of my T-Mobile Wing. Those dummies at Microsoft and those greedy bastards at T-Mobile made my Herald-in-Disguise a slow, $450 excuse for a PDA phone. However, thanks to many people here, itje, ivanmmj, the admins, the owners and all those countless members whose posts and threads I've read that have opened my eyes to this wonderful world of HTC phone modding, my phone is fast, fresh and even more fun to use.
Keep the great work up! I really appreciate it!
Let me just second that and add another big cheer for everyone here.
Thank you!
I wanted to start this thread to thank EVERY SINGLE MEMBER here that helps us(sometimes ungrateful) people. Noobs,etc., you have to remember that these guys do not HAVE to be doing this. Some do it for donations,some do it for the pleasure of helping others,and some do it for experience(Me). My knowledge is very limited compared to most here but I try to help when I know what Im talking about lol. Just wanted to point this out especially from what I have been READING in the forums lately (especially the kg4 leak forum ). Feel free to add your thanks and give homage to the individual members that have helped you(OR DONATE),THIS IS NOT A ***** AND MOAN THREAD!!!!!!!!!
EDIT:Too many members to thank individually but you know who you are.
I agree! PLUS 1
I know I'd be lost!

I too want to Thank all the people who have helped me.
I recently bought a laptop and have been going back into the threads to hit the Thanks button for you all. I wasn't able to do that for a couple of months.
XDA only allows 5 Thanks a day so they may be slow but they are surely coming.
Thank You
We really appreciate your thanks to all members, I hope that includes me As you remember XDA has done a major effort to put a thanks buttons so you can give away all the thanks you want.
On that note, thread closed.
So I’ve been seeing posts and threads floating around asking about Dev Support on the SkyRocket. There are two thoughts floating around. The first being that the SkyRocket will not have Dev support like Nexus or any other phone and we may as well give up on Dev Support, the second being that there is Dev Support and people actively working on the device. I tend to agree with the second thought so I wanted to post this up for everyone to think about.
First off we have to remember that Devs are not here to serve us. Most all Devs, regardless of device, do this as a hobby and like to share with others their hard work. Secondly, everyone should contribute SOMETHING to the community. Whether it’s advice on how to do something with our device, or links to good articles, links to deals on accessories or whatever, or if you have experience in development or gfxs or if you like to spread the word on social media. Whatever you want to do, just be a contributor to the community and the forum, I think if we all contribute more and take less, Dev support will grow and so will our community.
I also think it's awesome when people get excited about a ROM or Theme, that excitement gives the Devs postive feedback that helps them get excited. Basically what I am saying is positive feedback is just as important as the complaints and problem feedback. Probably more important, no one wants to be burden with problems constantly. An encouraging word can go a LONG way!
It’s just as important to be PROACTIVE in looking for answers to any questions you may have before you ask in the forums. It’s cool to ask a question but you should always be sure it wasn’t already answered. And be patient until someone can answer your question don’t start demanding answers if your post has only been up for a few hours, give people time to read it and digest it. Again this is just good community etiquette.
I am always available to PM if anyone ever has a question for me, I got no problem trying to help people and I enjoy seeing people figure things out. I do wallpapers, icons, docks and themes for our phones and I am a recognized Theme Dev on RootzWiki. I’m going to do my best to make the SkyRocket forums one of the greatest forums on xda. I’m not saying that to be prideful or boastful because I think we ALL need to do our best to make these forums the best they can be. We can’t just expect Devs to take the load, we got to ALL be proactive if we want good product.
All this being said, I think we have a great community started here. Looking forward to the future with all of you!

Yes YES YES!!!!!!!
this is the Truth<<<<
thanks for this post Mortem
Very well put sir. Thank you
We also have to remember that some of these devs, myself included, have families.
Families should always come first and everyone should understand that, if someone doesn't understand that then that is seriously messed up.
This is one of the reasons I am taking a break from themes, family. I get so obsessed with the theme that my family suffers, my kids don't see me for days. It's just not right. And that is something I have to work on, and that is what I am trying to do. I need to learn to tell peeps here.....yo, I need to take a break I got family that needs me.....and if they understand cool, if not, tough luck.
Wallpapers are not so intensive, I can bang a wall out in no time.....but themes, that's a whole new beast and it is intensive.
At any rate, I am excited to see what our Devs can put out and excited to keep making wallpapers for all you guys that appreciate them.
Oh one more thing. You can never hit the THANKS button too many times. It really is a moral booster to see people appreciate your work. No one here is making money from donations, and hitting the Thanks button is free.
Amen brother.. thanks to all who help this forum rock... after the holidays i might start helping out theme wise. Icons etc.. but too busy til then . And its my busy season at work. Graphics...

Support your devs!!!! Speaking of which, I need to hit our current devs up with a donation each. All this time spent looking to lure new development onboard worries me that the current work is going on unappreciated

I would like to publicly offer my skills to any developer that is currently working on SkyRocket ROMs.
Although at the moment I cannot work on full on themes I can certainly help you in the area of gfxs if need be, depending on what you need of course.
Please let me know if I can assist in anyway, and if it's in my ability I will certainly help.
and feel free to add me to Google Plus if you are there, send me a message and I will add you to my SkyRocket circle.

I know this will probably be deleted, but I want to say thank you to everyone who has posted a guide or answered questions. I also want to thank you senior and more experienced members for putting up with all of us more novice and less knowledgeable members. You have all helped me and guided me to understanding my device and just the over all support is awesome. Thank you all!

Thanks whore? He's one of the few who said thank you to people who helped him. Its just not very welcome here cos a lot of people feel they'd be penalized if they created such threads because thats the attitude spread by the proud people on xda. The real whores are the posters like you who gain some inexplicable joy from putting down new comers or people who genuinely need help, along with the other useless posters - USE THE [email protected]#KING SEARCH BUTTON [email protected]#KS!
The search button aint all that damn great. Try looking for an answer to a question you want on the ARHD thread. Your results would be about 10 pages long. Is it more convenient to read through 10 pages of posts or post a question and wait for a good soul to spend 1-2 mins of his/her and answer it for you?
Nothing against you personally but most the people on xda do similar things.
It takes time to learn, and when someone helps, its nice to say thank you. Maybe he can't donate. So this is how he sees it best. Dont unnecessarily stomp on others. Its gay.
Peace.
Thread closed.
There is a thanks button you can use to thank everyone involved.
Please do so in the respective thread...
I know, this thread may feel unnecessary to many of you, and I know this may spark some issues. But I'm going ahead and doing this. I'm not writing this up because of attention, its because of all the support and effort provided by all the developers, contributors, themers, moderators, technical members, pretty much everyone. That I need to show a way to thank them all at once.
On behalf of every user like me and many other's, I would like to thank every single person that pushed their limit and work tirelessly to produce and achieve something that they enjoy doing. Not because of money but because of simply enjoying the fact that people like us get to use what they've created.
If xda-developers wasn't here, many people that contribute here would have never achieved what they could have to this point. Why do I say that? Because xda is well known for inspiration and achievement. When a person sees one creating an astonishing project, they wonder and think to themselves if they could ever achieve something like this. And that's when you realize you want to get into development, contributing or simply helping people that are experiencing problems.
Over the years I've seen many projects, and I can damn tell you, people here are smart enough to be CEO's at companies. Heck smart enough to own companies and create new things. The projects are simply amazing, and sometimes hitting the thanks button and giving a donation doesn't really fill your need of appreciation. I honestly can't thank every individual here at xda that provide, help or simply ask questions. Without that xda wouldn't be xda. I decided to create this thread to show my appreciation for all that have provided people with solutions, projects and the love for technology.
If I had the time to fill this thread up with each and every individual that makes xda what it really is. The thread would be endless. I really hope that this thread isn't a concern and if you're a developer or simply someone that's exploring the vast world of Android. I would like to thank you for making xda what it really is.
