Please if your rooted just leave a small message. I'm doing a survey to see how many android users are rooted. Only one reply please.

This is about the dumbest thread I've seen in a while and that's saying something. Survey says?.....dumb!

*looks at feet* Nope, I'm not rooted. I dont think I've ever been. My phone is though.
Most of the people here on XDA have rooted phones. What are you going to use the data for? You can't do much with the data you will collect here.
Ask Carl Sagan...billions & billions & billions....
I'm going to compare people rooted to the number of android phones currently used. I'm a computer science major and im arguing that there are more people rooted then others think. Also my main point is the benefits of root

It's probably going to be like a 100,000:1 ratio. Vast majority run stock.
Sent from my SGH-T989 using XDA App

this wont prove anything, the majority of people that own rootable phones dont even know what rooting is. and asking on xda whos phone is rooted to compare to rest of the android users isnt a fair proportion.... most ppl on xda root their phones but xda users represent the minority of the population of people that own android devices.

If you want to do a real survey, you would have to randomly select at least 500 android users. You probably want 800-1000 users to keep the margin of error reasonable.
What you're doing here is the wrong way to do a survey. You will get very skewed, worthless results.
I want the survey to be bias and favor me. But this forum isn't turning out well. All I wanted was a simple yes I'm rooted. Not explanation. So please close

y dun TS just make a poll @@
is much easier
Every poll about this is pointless. Sure here on xda we're all rooted, but truth is most people in the world don't. Just my 2 cents...
I have to agree. Polls like this will prove nothing and as you stated that you only posted this to try and lean the report in your favor instead of real facts. I will close this.

2 days before release and there's STILL no thread?? Hell, even the Droid Charge has one. come on XDA!
bump bump bump
I'll bump this as we are still having the same issue with the T-Mobile G-Slate... Good luck. We have put in so many requests and they say they put you on a "Request List". Our device has been out since April 20th and announced well before that, yet we are in the same boat. I hope all works out well for the Infuse 4G getting a forum.
Bump,bump, bump it up we need some forums please

why do they need a request list? Probably faster to just add the forum then add the name to a list. Im sure theyll say they have to appoint a mod to it but I don't really care about that, do you?

I agree, if it came down to it...you would think they would appoint a member with a good rep to moderate. It can't hurt anything, and if it does then find another mod. The request list is just another way of saying we don't want to give you a forum IMO. Lately there have been to many problems with them not adding forums which I'm sure will lure a lot of members away from the site. It's all good for them to add forums for non-existing devices though....

It's got to be the timing. Just too many android devices catching the eye if devs. I would just wait a little. But I'm thinking nobody wants to invest energy in another variant. Sad but probably true (at&t know it sheep haven't a clue ... most people probably don't even know what LTE is)

You are right about the amount of devices coming out so quickly but in my opinion they should all be part of the community. Maybe XDA is trying to save bandwidth. I hope to see sections for some of these overlooked devices soon, but I'm not holding my breath.

Bumping for an Infuse thread. Just sold my Captivate for this device.
Bump it up again , Set one up guys or I'll be tempted to make a forum website myself... Too impatient to get things rolling.... Dual booting droid and windows etc etc
this amoled screen is effing HUGE
I just read on the XDA twitter today that there is an Infuse forum.....
And if you look, there is... right with all the other Samsung devices.
I have decided that when the REAL iPhone 5 debuts, im going to iOS, its more solid than Android... sure with android there are a variety but I would rather have one phone that can upgrade at the same time others of its kind upgrade instead of trying to hassle to *root* a phone n do all that other crap and risk bricking it just to stay current, well do that or buy another phone, its ridiculous actually.... and I saw a similar post to this one and that guy was right, Google has customization yes but when it comes down to it, it pains me to say but google is crap compared to apple as far as being current and stuff u knw? So whenever the iphone 5 drops I will not deal with android anymore I just can't tolerate this mess anymore

This is the reason why surveys say that ios is for girls and android for mens!!!!!!!
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using XDA App
I agree that the iOS has its good points. But for full functionality of your own phone you have to jailbreak it. How is that different than rooting your android? I have had an iPhone 3Gs and 4 and neither of them have come close to offering me all that I can have and do with my Infuse. And guess what that's my opinion, it works for me and my needs. Am I putting the iPhones down? Not really, if you want to drive an off the showroom floor mid grade model that comes with a stock package that is as you buy it then go for it. Personally I prefer to know how my device works at its core as well as be able to modify that as I see fit, but again that's me. I will not buy another iOS device until they allow the freedom I have with my android. I own both Mac and Win machines and an Ubuntu and a Slackware machine so I'm not pro or anti apple I get a device that fits my needs. If you need an iPhone go for it but what's the point of spreading negativity in a forum where the iPhone is not the focus.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using xda premium
Keep dreaming on! iOS 5 is an year away, like a distant dream... and some lame people are already dreaming of it. No wonder people find apple fan boys so lame and incapable.

WHAT? Oh my, you're just proving minute by minute that you didn't research the best device for your needs before you made a purchase. You have no one to blame but yourself for your situation. Ignorance is bliss!
Hello,
Today I'm going to try test three of the bootloader unlock (the test two didn't work, please delete it).
I'm not responsible if this hard-bricks your device, no don't blame me.
OK, so pm me please if you want to try it.
Only ONE person with 50+ posts or 10+ thanks may try it (to make sure your not motorola).
So post here first so that we can tell who will test it.
Good Luck,
TCF38012
Why not try on your own device? If I was working a zip flash to unlock the bootloader, I'd be trying on my own phone, rather than enlist others who may possibly brick as result. And, as DX2Trip asked in "test two", have the devs seen this that you're experimenting with?

The prize makes it sound that much more of a risk. (No offence) lol. So odds are more people won't want to take that chance ya know?

There have been offers like this in the past. So please don't cast aspersions on the OP.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1840550
The OPs offer is rather more generous in comparison.
Why do people always bother to see the post count and reps ? Its surely not a measure of how intelligent a person is.A person might be good but could have joined board late so he might be having less rep and posts. :/ We need to stop skeptical and embrace the help.
@OP : good luck with it.Some more details would be nice. All the best.
Edit : good example of what I wanted to say : http://i.imgur.com/v0H7z.jpg
The idea with the post count requirement was to make sure that motorola didn't create an account and volunteer to test it, and then go and analyze it, patch it if it worked, and then report back that it didn't either way.
Personally, I think that this may be unnecessary (although I have doubts about Moto's character, they definitely don't have the resources to be trolling dev forums in an effort to actively discourage development on year old hardware)
I would volunteer to test this, except that I fall just short of both requirements and I would also like to know what happened with the previous two tests before attempting this one (did they result in a brick?)
Again, as Fall of Enosis mentioned, the lack of replies by OP is a bit questionable. People asked legitimate questions in the first "test thread", and nothing was answered. Any good dev keeps up with his/her threads, and assures people with confidence by laying concerns to rest with some riposte. Not trying to cast any doubt on the OP's abilities, just a mention here of maybe taking a more proactive role in the threads he starts. My suggestion, to be taken or left alone...
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using xda premium
I am just going to assume that you will give us an over view of what you tried. We don't want people to get all pushy but it would be nice.
I'm also assuming the thread (x-files thread) a couple of days ago that ended in pm's was hashed out on back channels and this is a by product.
If I wrong well so be it but that's what happens when there is sooo little info.
Good luck.

I actually didn't look much at the OP, thinking that it was the same group of people that were doing the BL unlock the last time. I have reconsidered my decision to be a part of this test. Actually, I think this thread should be locked, but that's not my choice to make.

Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app
Well, this thread should be interesting......
FYI, asking for ETAs is kinda the xda equivalent of crapping the bed.
As for if there will be releases this week: maybe. Sometimes the devs like to give us a little Christmas present. But don't forget that they are people too and this is one of the busiest weeks of the year for many people.
Wow, I didn't mean to actually ask for anything - certainly not ETAs. More kind of a gag.

I think the idea of the galaxy camera is that people love the convenience cellphones provide for in allowing your photos to be shared to social media platforms. The problem is even the best phone cameras are still phone cameras. The galaxy camera retains the social networking convenience and introduces a nice camera (optical zoom) onto the equation. Curious how Google+ just recently allowed for full quality photo uploads eh?

This is the problem with xda. Not you. Personally i think you did nothing wrong. You were simply asking if anyone knew if a significant release for a ROM was being planned for this week. You weren't asking for someone to make a ROM, you weren't asking for an eta. Instead everyone decides to be incredibly disrespectful toward you. Maybe op didn't want to go through every single ROM thread over the past 5 or so pages looking for posts by the dev.

Ok, here's all I meant: I love xda and the developers. I flash like crazy and keep finding something better as one Rom leap frogs the other. So I was tongue in cheek asking for a break from flashing, to save me from myself this week, not for what to flash next.

C'mon man, don't be a troll. There are very few owners/users of your particular tab. Which is why there is little development for it. Have you seen Shakatus contributions to the community of P51xx.Take a look for yourself, and then try spouting off. If he, or any other, of the great devs around here actually had one of your models, maybe they may be able to figure something out. But, he doesn't. So he wont. Unless of course you want to send him yours to try, but I can guess the answer to that. Bashing people around here for problems that you are having (or unwilling to do anything about, except lean on others ie: learn something for yourself) is unacceptable and will be reported. No trolls allowed......next!
I wasn't trying to be crass....I will be happy to donate or whatever in order to advance the work on this model....but there's no current anything for this device.....I've ran down every link and thread trying to find anything useful to break VZW's hold on this device, so it's not a matter of not researching or being lazy....my apologies.
