Forming a team to help improve our collective experience with xda-dev! - Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)

[email protected] said:
...
(end of rant - just wanted to get point across that noobs can become just as frustrated as senior members on this site)
During the past 4 months, I have discovered Stack Exchange for much of my "technical exploring" and have become very fond of the format there. Now, I am not trying to sell that site over this one... but...
I do suggest that we integrate that site into this one. Currently, there is a general Android section with some Galaxy S 4G question-and-answers. It is amazing how quickly one can get answers in the Stack Exchange system. And the answers are impressive; the riff-raff get filtered out almost immediately...
What I am recommending is not new... My computer runs Ubuntu. And, although Ubuntu has a very active forum, it also sponsors AskUbuntu which is a member of the Stack Exchange.
And, if you analyze what is happening there, you will see that the newest of the noobs are the ones who spend the most time in fora... the fora has a high rate of attrition of senior members... as they concentrate their time in the exchange... while they (as they have time/patience/desire) also visit the fora for the purpose of assisting the noobs.
The result is that both groups -- the seniors and the noobs -- benefit.
Is there a way for us to proceed on this suggestion?

We are forming a team in order to facilitate a discussion regarding the above context...

Sounds good. Raver, Bryan and I meet in #teamnerd on freenode.

Ok. I've befriended the 3 of you (and requested that you do the same)...
Do you have a scheduled meeting time?

Don't really have a scheduled meeting time, maybe we should set that up.
TeamNerd has a domainname, google apps (gmail, calander, docs, etc for the domain), sourceforge (would like to move to googlecode, but not sure yet), but we still need dns hosting. I'm broke until I get my next paycheck to get dns service... maybe someone can temporarily host our dns so we can at least get the google apps site up, so we can start adding things to calanders and adding some docs.

How much would dns cost.

Nevermind, I didn't realize that you get dns for free with networksolutions . The interface is a *****, but it works.

Are you sure? I'm offering to help. You don't take donations, so if you want a good DNS, now is the time to say something.

Looking For Developers Who Want to be on XDA TV

Come join me on XDA TV!
Hey everyone. I need to start out by apologizing for the slow start on my XDA TV show. It turns out that doing interviews over hotel internet doesn't work no matter where you are in the world. My business trip has ended, which means my show, XDA Insider, is ready to get going.
My show is all about you! The community. Each week I will be sitting down with a developer, admin, moderator, or anyone else who helps contribute to the community.
Obviously, I can't kick start the show without a guest, so this is my callout: Would you like to be on XDA Insider? Post here or send me a private message containing 2 pieces of information - 1. what you do on this site 2. what times during the day you are available for interview.
Please remember that this show will be interactive, so we will need to set a recording date so I can give the community ample time to ask any questions they would like.
Show recording times
I prefer to record the show on Sunday in the morning Japan Time (+9), but anytime Sunday should be fine. Keep in mind that this is Saturday evening for those of you in the Americas
Suggested Recording Times Based on Location
Americas: Saturday evening or Sunday morning (This is Sunday morning or evening for me)
Europe and Africa: Sunday morning (This is Sunday afternoon for me)
Asia and Australia: Our times are similar. Mid-day would be best to adjust for the couple hours difference.
Show History:
March 9, 2011 - Orb3000 - http://www.xda-developers.com/announcements/xda-insider-–-9-march-–-xda-tv/
March 14, 2011 - Earthquake Edition - http://www.xda-developers.com/announcements/xda-insider-14-march-xda-tv/
March 29, 2011 - ftgg99 - http://www.xda-developers.com/announcements/xda-insider-–-29-march-–-xda-tv/
Upcoming Shows:
April 14, 2011 - TheDeadCPU
April 20, 2011 - Looking for volunteers - Will record April 16 or 17

Yeah sure!
I´m on -6GMT and I can do it Saturday or Sunday very late on my time
Let me know or PM me and we can chat via messenger or gtalk

Some root questions

Hi guys,
I want to root my wife's Charge. i have a lot of experience rooting HTC phones but I have never looked into Samsung rooting. its seems Odin must be a root tool?
I did not see any topic in the dev this dev section that popped out at me about rooting.
It would be appreciated is someone can point me in the proper direction.
how to root the charge:
What seems to best the most popular roms:
Any tips for rooting/flashing:
Thanks for any advice you guys may have
Going forward, don't post questions in the dev section. They go in Q&A. But hey, nobody's perfect, right?

But you can only share how you did it via pm? Can't share with the community publicly? That kind of defeats the whole point of open source development.
I'm more than happy to eat crow if you actually did this, but share your work in the forum so the entire community can benefit. That is what is in the true spirit of the xda community.

Well you made a claim that you did something that was largely thought to not be possible. You provided no support for your claim, just an insulting post to another user who made a legitimate point that he didn't think the mod was possible. You only felt the need to tell that poster he was wrong and offered no proof of such, then you disappeared for 6 days.
Why would anyone give that post the benefit of the doubt? Be insulted all you want. But your original post about this was fairly nasty by just saying "you are wrong". Then no one heard anything from you for 6 days. You cannot deny that looks an awful lot like trolling.
You also kind of made it seem like you personally made the mod, which you didn't. Im sure this wasn't intentional but it still kind of looked that way and some developers get testy about that sort of thing. You even used the actual mod developer's screenshots. When posting links to other people's work please always give the specific person who did the work proper credit so there is no confusion about who's work it is. And begging for thanks in any post like in your other thread is kind of lame. If your post is helpful to people, they will thank you. Begging for thanks kind of defeats the point.
I hope this helps you to become a more constructive member of this community. Thank you for sharing the transparent status bar mod you found!

After taking a long break from Magisk for almost a month due to vacation + burnout, man it feels so good to work on Magisk again. It reminded me why I created it in the first place and continue working on it after so many years.

Please refrain from posting like this in my threads. An opinion is one thing but such harsh judgment about someone who was doing something to benefit everyone for free is not open to discussion in my threads, especially when they have continued to work on the free to you project. Please make your own thread or post elsewhere about it - I'm guessing you probably already have.
He's not working for free for me since I have no rooted devices at the moment. But Google wanted to screw over the rooting community and they will now that they have him on their payroll. Sorry for the judgement but it's the honest truth. Just like apple started hiring the jailbreakers and now jailbreaking is almost gone the same will happen to rooting given a few years

Case in point as to why I support any developer using the skills they've honed and grown to support their personal well being over a community that is by and by ungrateful and entitled.
This comment right here.

No rants in this thread. Please adhere to my previous request.
Glad to see he's back at it. I mean honestly I was just glad that he addressed the DM verity situation so quickly, but excited to see what comes next

Jailbreaking is as healthy as it's ever been considering what Apple has done to the filesystem on iPhones. Don't spread wrong information.

What a strange authoritarian request; people can voice any opinions they want this is not your forum. Ridiculous way of expressing yourself; I hope you're not like that in real life. Creepy.
Helpful? Kind? Patient? Resist negativity? Respect others' requests? You bet I'm like this in real life.
I've requested this thread be cleaned by a moderator. If not possible, I wouldn't mind if this thread were closed at this point - although closing isn't necessary if it's cleaned.
Those who insist on being combative, negative, ranting, or name calling - you are blocked and I will no longer see your posts.
Welcome back @topjohnwu
Looks like he's been doing some vbmeta tweaks and updates. I know someone was working on fixing the bootloop problem when flashing to opposite slots during OTAs on Pixels. Maybe we'll get some more progress on that.
Glad he took a break to recharge...
Oh, and one more thing..."we" are not more important than his career. We should be grateful for all he's done and that he is continuing to work on Magisk. He owes us nothing. Peace...
Magisk is best root method it works flawlessly I'm still waiting on magisk 24.0
Developers are gonna like Zygisk
There literally gonna be a lot of new modules that weren't possible on magisk 23.0 and below
Wait, John is using an iphone now?! What the?!

I knew that. It's just odd someone who has been developing for Android for so many years would use a device from the "enemy".

Do you mean 24.0? Or maybe 23.1?

I thought 23 was the current stable release, too.
