Yeah it's great news! Hopefully that means we're only a couple weeks from a nightly release.

Not to sound like a **** or anything but we already have 2 threads about this elsewhere. Now I understand this is exciting and all but please.

agreed... have some common sense! if the tweets were made last evening at around 11EST then there are obviously already forum posts (it is regarding CM for God's sake).
Search and post in relevant threads. This thread should be closed, as it is pointless. No need to riddle the forums with duplicate posts just because you (and everyone else) were excited and did not post in the correct thread.

There really is no point to lash out. One person had already corrected him.
FORUM RULES
2.1 Language: XDA is a worldwide community. As a result what is ‘ok’ to say in your part of the world may not be ok in someone else’s part of the world. Please think about who is reading what you write. Keep in mind that what you think of as acceptable use of language may not be acceptable to others. Conversely, while reading member posts, remember that word you find offensive may not be to the writer. Tolerance is a two way street.
2.3 Flaming: XDA was founded as a group of people sharing information about certain mobile phones. Sharing does not involve virtual yelling (flaming) it does involve working together to solve problems in an environment of mutual respect and understanding. Losing your temper and flaming another member, or group of members, is not acceptable behavior.
10. Help others if you can.
If you see posts from others where you can help out, please do. This place exists because people are helping each other, and even if you are relatively new to the matter, there's probably already quite a few people newer than you that would benefit from what you've learned. Don't be shy.

New Moderator!

Hello folks, my name is conantroutman and I'll be your forum moderator this evening...
Some of you may have noticed that Mr. Clown has been promoted to Senior Moderator, I am here to replace him.
I know I've got some big shoes to fill (pun intended). Clown shoes..... get it?....nevermind.. but I will try to keep on top of things and make sure the forums stay as tidy and organised as possible.
If you have any suggestions on how to improve this little section of XDA then just drop me a PM or leave a post in this thread and I'll see what I can do.
Should you encounter any issues that require moderation then don't hesitate to drop me a PM. Serious issues should be reported using the "Report Post" button at the top right of each post, minor issues (misplaced/duplicate threads, spam etc etc..) should just be reported directly to me via PM.
Enjoy...
Oh yeah, heres a little reminder of the forum rules.......
Forum & Marketplace Rules
FORUM RULES​
1. Search before posting.
Use one of our search functions before posting, whether you have a question or something new to share, it's very likely someone already asked that question or shared that news.
2. Member conduct.
2.1 Language: XDA is a worldwide community. As a result what is ‘ok’ to say in your part of the world may not be ok in someone else’s part of the world. Please think about who is reading what you write. Keep in mind that what you think of as acceptable use of language may not be acceptable to others. Conversely, while reading member posts, remember that word you find offensive may not be to the writer. Tolerance is a two way street.
2.2 Nudity: XDA is used by people of all ages, including minors. It's not acceptable to post nude/pornographic imagery, which includes exposure of the male or female genitalia or of female breasts.
2.3 Flaming: XDA was founded as a group of people sharing information about certain mobile phones. Sharing does not involve virtual yelling (flaming) it does involve working together to solve problems in an environment of mutual respect and understanding. Losing your temper and flaming another member, or group of members, is not acceptable behavior.
2.4 Personal attacks, racial, political and/or religious discussions: XDA is a discussion forum about certain mobile phones. Mobile phones are not racial, political, religious or personally offensive, therefore none of these types of discussions are permitted on XDA.
2.5 New Members: Treat new members the way you would have liked to have been treated when you were a new member. Provide the new members with guidance, advice and instruction always with respect and courtesy.
2.6 All members are expected to read and adhere to the XDA rules.
3. Post only using a clear subject and message.
You're most likely to receive a helpful answer to your question if you use a short subject title that describes your problem and a message that explains in detail what your problem is and what you've tried to solve it.
4. Use the English language.
We understand that with all the different nationalities not everyone speaks English well, but please try. If you're really unable to post in English use an online translator, You're free to include your original message in your own language below the English translation.
5. Post a message only once.
As a large forum we don't need unnecessary clutter, You're free to edit your message as you like, so if you do not receive an answer revisit your message and see if you can describe your problem better. Not everyone is online at the same time, it might take a while before you receive an answer.
6. Do not post warez.
If a piece of software requires you to pay to use it, either pay or find your cracks and serials somewhere else. We do not accept warez nor do we permit any member to promote or describe ways in which Warez, cracks, serial codes or other means of avoiding payment, can be obtained.
7. Do not spam.
If you wish to advertise a product, contact us we provide ads. But do not post it in the forums, it will be removed and you're likely to receive a ban.
You are however allowed to sell used goods like your own device, parts of your device or accessories for your device in the marketplace forum, please read the rules there before posting. (This rule includes signatures, if you use a signature it will appear in your post)
8. Donations.
We appreciate all donations to xda-developers.com, it keeps our forum online and well maintained. As a user you're allowed to ask for donations in your signature as a thank you for your hard work. However donations up front are not allowed, this forum is about sharing, not about getting paid to do something, that's what your job is for.
9. Don't get us in trouble.
Don't post copyrighted materials or do other things that will obviously lead to legal trouble. If you wouldn't do it on your own homepage, you probably don't want to do it here either. This does not mean we agree with everything the software piracy lobby try to impose on us, it simply means you cannot break any laws here, since we'll end up dealing with legal hassle caused by you. Please use common sense: respect the forum, its users, and those that write great code.
10. Help others if you can.
If you see posts from others where you can help out, please do. This place exists because people are helping each other, and even if you are relatively new to the matter, there's probably already quite a few people newer than you that would benefit from what you've learned. Don't be shy.
11. Don’t post with the intent on selling something.
As an elaboration to rule number 7, don’t use XDA to advertise your product or service. If you are the proprietor of a for-pay product or service, you may use XDA to get feedback, provide beta access, or offer support on the product, but you may not make any posts with the primary intent of selling. This includes posting press releases, announcements, or links to downloads for trial software. The only exception to this is when you’re posting an exclusive release to XDA.
12. Using the work of others.
If you are developing something that is based on the work of another Member, you MUST first seek their permission, and you must give credit to the member whose work you used. If a dispute occurs about who developed / created a piece of work, first try to settle the matter by private message and NOT in open forum. If this fails then you may contact a moderator with clear evidence that the work was created by you.
Convincing evidence will result in copied work being removed. If there is no clear evidence you created the work then in the spirit of sharing all work will remain posted on the forums.
These rules apply to all software posted on XDA unless that software comes with a license that waives these rules.

Welcome!
I hope you're the aggressive type.

FREE and OPEN-SOURCE

it seems people here have forgotten what this term means..
i posted a ROM on XDA that i found from a different site. credit was given to the rightful development team. all i did was spread the word and share..
this is the entire basis of the linux community.
a lot of people here complain about users being too needy, but honestly a lot of the "devs" are too greedy and full of themselves.. team inferno, for example, who has SOME members that act as if they developed and invented android themselves... when all they really do is a few graphic/theme enhancements.
there is absolutely nothing wrong with posting and sharing open-source work even if its not your own contribution, as long as the right credit is given. read the terms and conditions you more than likely blindly accepted when first using android or installing the SDK..
to the mod that closed my thread: thanks for aiding in the destruction of the community. i didnt think letting XDA know about what else is out there was such a crime. wait, what you guys are doing is more of a crime, which has potential of shutting down the entire virtuous team. but i love their work and im not an asshole so ill let it be
cool story bro

Another useless thread that will be locked. The reason why again, since you can't grasp the concept. YOU did NOT have the permission to post their work. Open source or not. Doesn't flipping matter. If you look at every single thread someone says with permission by blah, blah, blah. Don't get butt hurt that your little thread that you copied and pasted in the dev section got closed. It happens when you don't read the rules.

i couldnt care less for the thread, whether i post it or someone else..
the point is the entire concept of "community" build around linux is useless when people cannot spread the message of different ROMs or distros or whatever it is. you want more users and testers, not restrictions..
what i did was only against your own made up rules. if you wanted to move the info to the general sub-forum, fine.. but to act as if IM in the wrong for spreading the word on a free and open-source product?..
take your credit for your work, but dont be selfish and hold it all to yourself or restrict it from certain groups. whats the reason for not allowing it on XDA? IT DOESNT MATTER, its most likely some dumb **** anyway..

good for you, you must feel really good about yourself
BTW, whether its a rule on XDA or not is not a concern. when youre dealing with FOSS or FLOSS, the federations rules trump any rule that you or a mod or a forum creates..
what if the ICS camera fix was found on another forum, but those members wouldnt let anyone else use it? do you know how much of a negative affect that has on the community? this is against everything linux stands for..
but thanks for being a jerk

.....guys seriously...just shut up. If you have nothing nice to say, don't say it! This forum is falling apart. Just post what ROMs you want WITH PERMISSION, then just ignore the trolls. I could care less about that thread. Just my 2 cents..I'm prepared to be flamed anytime for this post.

Free hechoen

As some of you may or may not know Hechoen has received a ban from the forums. The ban is his first and is for ten days. The reason for the action was "Disrespectful attitude towards moderator." Some background follows. He was PM'd by a mod to remove his avatar within 48 hours. The mod seemed to think that it could be offensive to some members. His avatar has been around for a long time and was a cartoon of a guy giving the middle finger with the words "Censor this!". As we all know an avatar is an extension of your online personality. To get an idea of whether or not the community found it offensive he posted a question about it in the off-topic thread(that he created). He never named the mod or said anything "disrespectful" towards the mod. Within minutes the post was deleted and he was banned. So I ask any of you that think this action unfair to please respond here. Also feel free to PM a mod(or five) with a link to this thread. If others believe this to be unfair and we unite as a community maybe, just maybe, we'll make a difference.
Sincerely,
Beastmode

To any mods reading this, it would be nice to have a link to the avatar rules for the forums. Thanks.

He has been helping out here as
long as I have been around..always
seems to help where he can..sounds
like they used the avatar thing as an excuse...he has had that avatar as long as I remember... Mods cut him some slack...give him a warning and let it go....

i might be somewhat a noob but hechoen has been on the sgs4g forums way before i joined and new what roms were he plays an importnd role in xda

Don't worry, the mods have heard our petition and hechoen will be unbanned in approximately 9 more days It's a problem with the forum software, we just can't make it unblock anyone faster than that.

wow really he has never been anything but nice to people ..../failpalm

maybe if i added a little neon effect or something, then it might just be a little appropriate? :banghead:

Not that I agree with the ban, but, wasn't he asking to be censored?

I don't know the guy personally but this isn't the first time a mod has abused their powers. Most don't, but then again what can you really do? Hope he's unbanned shortly. And to all the mods not on a power trip, please keep up the fine work we appreciate you.

Thread Cleaned
Well, guess what folks?
This thread itself has been reported, and thus cleaned and closed.
XDA is a development forum, off topic discussion is allowed to some extent to afford users to create relationships that strengthen bonds and friendships that will, hopefully, lead towards a stronger development community and thus, possibly better product for the masses.
BUT you need to also understand the following post - some may have read this before http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=16682226&postcount=2441
That being said - this website, and the threads within, are really for development and the developers. Moderators are merely here to make sure that the aforementioned development, along with the published rules, are being abided by.
Regardless of whether moderators do the popular thing or not, we do what we do with sincere interest for the community as a whole. Users who want to challenge the rules and/or criticize what moderators do and try to incite others in this plight are ones who bring little value to this community. Additionally, and you most should be aware, there are plenty of social media websites available to sign petitions and to express your feelings, XDA is not one of them.
And, to refer to the about linked post by zelendel, no one made you come here. You agreed to be respectful in your posts, to be critical of moderators, who are also members, is also not allowed.
For those of you in here who have posted, good to meet you. I expect you all will try to exercise respect, humanity and dignity from here on out - wherever and whenever you post.
Enjoy the rest of the weekend.

Mods banning Devs @XDA.. Shame on you

Really? Really... REALLY?! You guys have very few ppl posting useful links and/or building ROMs because you run off the Devs. You act like you don't read anything except maybe some whiny-ass complaint report and even take forever doing even that. On top of which, near the only person/ppl working on these devices and posting builds to share keeps getting banned due to one of the mod's hiccups. Yes, I'm talking about @Goose03, @amarc78, @Jason M. ..same guy got accidentally locked out of his 1st account (or something) and had to make another account just to even ask a Mod for access help. He gets into trouble for having multiple accounts.. This is about where the bans started.
Now this crap: He asked for his thread closed due to potential conflicts and nothing was done until someone got offended and now his thread closed & labeled as "previously banned". Y'all are a buncha douches for being like that over here and I mean that with the highest sincerity possible. A lot of the device tree fixes and building tweaks were due to his persistence and most the newer ROMs were built using his trees. Cut the guy a break and have respect for his efforts by not banning him over someone having a millennial meltdown. You should cherish these memberships because XDA, in itself is useless without ppl building and sharing.. Shame on you

couldnt agree more

There are two sides to every story. Whatever rules were broken apply to every XDA member regardless of contributions to a device, forum or community.
