Just a thank you

got my phone last week and with xda's help i have rooted and rom'ed it.(ok ok i soft bricked it a few times.. yeah i'm a noob) All with just reading threads and stickies. didn't even have to post a question. search is definitely the way to go. read read and read some more the answers are there.
thnx for the great stuff i can do with the phone now.

Great. Another thank you thread. Jk. Lol. I waited a lot longer to root because I was somewhat paranoid to ask a question around here because I might get my ass flamed. I don't use the PC for this site because all the crappy ads make it crawl and searching this site on mobile is horrid. I finally got it sorted and rooted without even a minor blip. Which method did you use and what rom are you running?

Ad Block Plus for FF/Chrome is your best friend. I have never seen a single ad on this site nor any other I frequent.

Agree with the thank you to xda. One of big reasons I went inspire over atrix was the amount of support and development here. It's great messing around with your phone and making it just the way you want it. Having a resource like xda is priceless.

New MT4G Dev

Well, first off, I am jellette/Heathen of the Einherjar Dev Team. You will find us mainly in the Samsung sections.
Link to just my releases: HERE
It looks like I will be most likely making the move to the MT4G today as my SGS Vibrant is suffering its second wasted usb port.
I don't have much non-touchwiz experience but I didn't have any TW experience when I started so I don't see it as too much of a problem.
I haven't had a chance to scan through the MT4G forum yet to see the state of development but I would imagine you already have some Kick A$$ devs over here. I will spend the next few days familiarizing myself with the phone, its rooting methods, types of roms and mods available, etc. Then I will dig in.
If there are dev specific requests, please post them here.
I will begin with porting our already available roms and mods: HERE
I'm not, and couldn't even if I wanted to, leaving EDT - we will just be expanding our development to HTC devices.
I suppose that's about it for now!

Welcome to MT4G, I'm sure we will all be eagerly awaiting your work. Good luck with the transition.

So happy to hear we have another DEV.
Welcome and good luck.

Welcome. And with ~1100 thanks and only ~1300 post i'm pretty you pump out some nice work. I'll be awaiting it's arrival.

Welcome aboard it's always nice to have new devs, especially ones with experience.

Glad your here missed your work from the vibrant days. Your roms always kicked butt and were revolutionary in their design. Can't wait to try one of your mt4g roms

Some ideas for rom ports
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=840040
^Android Revolution, seems to be very popular probably very good
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1115312
^Virtuous fusion unity, based on the official rom from htc pyramid
Maybe you could try a galaxy rom port, since sense runs on sammy phones.

Just getting started. UPS just delivered it, had already ordered it on Saturday. Now, it looks like there isn't a one click rooting method... So I will start looking at the guides to get root so I can get started.

Gfree is safe, it only bricks myTouch 4G's that have the bad eMMC chip. But even that is still all a speculation.

Nice to have another dev. Thanks for joining the club. It's a great phone. Look forward to your work.

Is any one still making roms for this device?

I know that making a rom takes a very long time but our device seems to only have 5-10 (maybe more) good/stable roms. every one else seems to be getting a lot more love. is it cause we have a miSense device?

Just because we don't have 30 CM9 roms with each a different name doesn't mean we don't have roms. It means we respect each others work and choose not to duplicate it and call it our own.

This. I honestly don't think we're lacking in types of rom that we have.
I mean, we have stock-tweaked, aosp, sense roms, CM roms, different versions of MIUI's. Hell, we even have JB in the making!
So, yes, they're still alive and making roms.

Well, the reason I don't complain is because I can't dev. There's just no time for it. Yeah I get jealous of other forums from time to time, but the alternative is learning how to make my own rom.
Better not to bite the hand that feeds you.

I personally think we have a group of great devs for this device who are very willing to share each others' work to benefit the community at large I am curious as to what TBalden has going right now cuz he's been awfully quiet lately.

Where better than most fourms right now. Some newer devices are all on stock based roms. Atleast we have CM9, and MIUI. Virtuoius, and tons of sense.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2

really?
I dont say much around here...but man oh man, i have to this time. First of all, a huge thanks to all the devs. I'd go by name but someone deserving would be left out...we may be short on kangs but we've got great roms. I'll take quality over quantity.
I had an ace previously. Dozens and dozens of roms, but they've just repeated themselves. There's only a handful of systems to be ported anyways.
Kernel development on this phone has been off the chains. Anything running on tbalden and kornyone's work has been smooth and slick.
Frankly, I knew when I got the phone that since sliders are kind of niche the scene would be smaller. Used the demo phone in the store to verify that cm was in a complete state. Which it most definitely is. Feeling pretty confidant that cm10/jb will reach completion.
Anyways, I'm probably gonna cry when this phone dies. Maybe you can sell me yours for a spare. Cuz if I ever have to turn mine in on insurance they'll probably try to hand me a different model.

Oh God, not this crap again...

It seems like a weekly occurrence around here. The "weekly whiner" is a good name for them. I like it! Let's make them wear a virtual dunce cap for a week as punishment lol! Embarrassment might break this annoying cycle

If its so annoying don't comment. It's just a simple question. Why people always get mad at certain stuff if u get that mad or annoyed don't bother with posting. It's not that hard. Plus I just wanted to know a simple answer to a simple question.

It isn't anger you detect as much as it is frustration K7. What is plainly obvious to developers & other coders isn't so much to the rest of us just looking at the threads & available ROMs. I HAVE noticed though because of helping a friend out with an EVO 4G that many of the ROMs are little more than a redistributed but newly themed, customized & slightly altered versions of another popular ROM. Do that several times and you have 5 ROMs with little differences to the core program multiplied across 5 or 6 basic initial formats & you have plenty....kinda. If that was what was happening to the MT4Gs then we'd have 40+ ROMs 'listed' but few differences other than the new name.
This isn't meant to disparage any developers in other forums for other devices and it may very well be an isolated case but it is something I noticed.
Just my nickel's worth.....

I just don't understand the need to create new threads for topics that aren't new, insightful, or helpful
Sent from my myTouch_4G_Slide using xda app-developers app

40 half baked shlt roms, or a couple rock solid good ones?
you decide.

Also, it's good to mention that not every ROM for this device is at XDA.
Sent from my HTC MyTouch 4G Slide using xda premium

Ok so where all the couple rock solid ones? The closest I've found is virtuous inquisition and even that has been giving me all kinds of issues lately. I don't want more ROMS necessarily, just one, vanilla, zero issues rom and id stick with this phone the rest of the year.

How can we help?

As we all know, development & Support for our One XL is very poor compared to other phones like the One X Tegra, One S, EVO LTE and GS3.
What i have been doing in the past were how to videos and "Balanced" rom review videos for other devices and PC's as well. I would like to do more One XL videos and try to get it a little more popular and see what happens. Would you guys be interested in this? If so, let me know what kind of videos i could do for us, I'm open to Rom reviews, how to videos, and accessories videos.
I know I'm a developer but I also do enjoy using this phone and would love to see more attention brought to it before the One X+ kills it off for good.

I will be posting videos on the team nocturnal channel. http://YouTube.com/TeamNocturnalTV
Post the topics for the videos you would like to see me do

Good idea man

Start with rom reviews. You got half a dozen roms to keep you busy. :thumbup:
Accessories thread is by far the slowest part of our forums so maybe continue there with some more reviews.

(although noobs don't bother with stickies, especially on the mobile app) create a sticky thread reviewing roms, tweaks, homescreens, and hell, fookin quadrant scores with certain roms. The few devs here create awesome roms.
I've rooted my buddies gs3, and he can't find a stable/feature rich Rom to save his life

You really think the x+ will kill the one x? Not everyone is going to go strait to the x+ if at&t locks it down. Most of us here have an unlocked one x, so hopefully that will keep devs here for a little while longer.

I'd say development here is better and more active than the SGS3, at least the verizon version.
Exactly how many more ROMs do you need?

I think reviewing roms would be great and videos of the ones you think are worth it. I've recently started testing some roms out. I tried KingCobra and am now using Viper plan on testing some more. I may could help on some input.
But someone to do up to date rom reviews would be awesome

Wow man that's really awesome of you! Do some reviews of ROM's like Dev1's ICS vs Dev2's ICS. Comparisons, some cool themes you find, tutorials on how to edit the clock, lockscreen, etc. on different roms, stuff like that.
Once again the community appreciates your help!

keep the ideas coming and ill do the videos. Its much more relaxing then developing lol. I did a Miui install video last night and will do a full review tomorrow since ive had 2 days to test it by then.
Here is the Miui Video, I'm still new to this so dont be to harsh lol

I think it's great of you spending your time on it. Thank you!
The one thing I would stay away from that was mentioned was side by side, who's is better reviews. They are all hard work and it then becomes overly opinionated and can actually decrease the motivation of the "losing" devs. Your reviews will be great, and thanks for offering your time:beer:

I would never bash anyone in any reviews, I don't want any negative attention lol. I just hope people wont think im taking sides since i have roms of my own and i have only showed one on YouTube and that was back in may. With that being said, i want to do more how to videos because i don't enough of those here.
As far as creating a rom of your own, read read read is all i can say, that is how i started and ask questions and use Google. But never ever use anyone's work no matter how small you think the file may be. Ive seen a few people here and there doing that and its not cool at all. that's a good way to get a bad rep off the bat.

I usually wouldn't make a post like this but this has been by far the best community I have been a part of since having the EVO 4G a few years ago. I don't always post replies but I'm constantly reading the posts and all of the great advice and tips all have posted have been great. Also the amount of maturity and professionalism is top notch here as well! I hope to see you all on the ATT One forums in the near future!

Yeah - I've had a few different devices and been in a few diffeernt XDA forums and his one is pretty good.
We can thank developers like utkaar099, turge, scrosler, bpbear and rohan (amongst others) for taking the time to provide excellent support for the roms they create. Guys like exad and redpoint73 are also very patient and helpful in spreading their knowledge and advice.
Enjoy it while it lasts though - I think we might lose a few to the HTC One......

I have to agree . I thought those guys on the captivate and Atrix HD forums were good , but the guys on the one x forums have taught me so much , not to mention saved my phone twice !

OK I am having Happy Gilmore flashbacks. "I AM GOOD! You know what? You're a lousy kindergarten teacher! I seen those finger paintings you bring home and they SUCK!"
Alright seriously though, I have only kicked around the HP Touchpad and HOX xda forums and both of them are great. The TP dev'ing is slowing down just because its an older device but the thing didn't even come with Android so its a miracle that they even got it up and running. The fact that CM10.1 is currently semi usable is amazing.
For the HOX dev folk, its great(er). I have people ask me all the time what handy dandy new phone they should get but I keep telling them to get a last gen phone and come to XDA like I do. The HOX devs pump out so many great rom choices that can be used as (and are in my case) daily drivers. Sure I bounce around a bit but thats because I'm an unrepentant flash whore. With the inclusion of pie controls, ribbons and most recently HALO, the amount of customization is... alright I ran out of adjectives. Suffice it to say, THANK YOU dev community!

I can beat you all. I came from the htc vivid forums. Nuff said lol
