Welcome, community, to the XDA Developer's Day thread. We receive endless support from the developers. They deal with our bug submissions, questions, comments, complaints, and whining on a daily basis. What can we possibly do to give back?!
________________
When:
The first of every month.
What Can I Do?
Consider Rom, Application, Kernel, Theme, Tweak, and other developers in your decision:
Pick a developer who has influenced your life in some way this month and donate a few dollars! And come next month, pick another developer. A rotation, of sorts. Every donation counts, and is cherished.
Update your signature to reflect your support for developers and for the mass recognition of the holiday!
Credit to DHO for the original thread idea.
I REALLY don't think this will be necessary...
But just in case: Snagging post #2 as well.
Oh, and this has taken off fairly well on Rootzwiki.
I hope it does here as well.
This is a really awesome idea
+1
+1 as well this is a pretty cool idea. Developers really deserve supportfrom the community. One of let's them know that what they are doing is not in vain. Two some monitary support is always a good incentive to keep good hard core developers at the top of their game, which is the long run is good for everyone. Now I know a lot of of developers do it just because it is their personal hobby and the enjoy it. But some cummunity support and graditude never hurts.
Done, great idea.
Edit: And to the jerk who rated this thread with 1 star, you know who you are and you should be ashamed. Truly ashamed...
done
done deal .as stated before great idea.

the developers pretty much couldn't ignore all the repetitive questions and morons in general. to be honest it was somewhat silly for htem to close the thread and not let anyone know, but hey its their project.

You are glad they closed it because I made a comment about them not being like most typical developers and ignore a question already answered? I never used the rom, I understood that it wasn't ready
. You do understand though that these guys aren't the only developers in the world right? All it takes is ignoring the dumbasses like yourself and answering important questions. I enjoy the phone I have and could hardly care if they get an ics out first or if the cm team does. I am patient and have no reason to be impatient

I guess I can ask Santa to get us ICS for Christmas........I realized the pain and amount of time a person has to spend to develop a rom. But some people don't understand the time they take to develop these roms. Kudos to the developers at xda.

I have had my Skyrocket for a week now. I use to have a Captivate. The Dev's and the community were fantastic. Here are my first impressions of the Dev's and community for the Skyrocket. Are you kidding me?! Really?! This is what I should expect?! Seriously, In the last week I have seen the Dev's, themers, and modders take a leaked ICS rom and turn into rooted, debloated, several roms, kernals, themes, tweaks and mods and more coming to fast to keep up with. Beyond amazing all of you! I'm in awe. And the community is awesome. I like my new phone. I love its new home. Thanks to all
Yeah, the devs around here really bust their asses. They deserve all the thanks, kudos, and brews they get.
I have to say, even looking in the T989 forum. so many less apps, and roms, and tips, and tweaks and other usefull stuff, and we basically have the same phone. I LOVE the skyrocket community.
Seems like a lot of x-cappy owners went with the rocket. You'll enjoy the crowd here. Welcome. Keep up if you can!

The cappy is a good little phone. Just didn't have a flash for camera or a good gps. I still have 3 cappies "customized" for the ladies in the family. But, Daddy's got the Skyrocket
Welcome! I'm an ex-Cappy owner myself. Awesome development on that phone. I'd say at least 75% of Skyrocket owners on XDA upgraded from the Captivate.
I've been with the Skyrocket community here on XDA since right after the phone came out, and it took a long time to get where we are today. Those early days were slow with not much available, but things have really exploded recently, in awesome ways.
The Skyrocket community is one of the best you'll find anywhere on XDA. We have a couple of dedicated trolls, but they're actually just good people having fun (I'm looking at you nrm!!!). We're a good bunch. Again, welcome!

Hey guys and gals! I recently purchased a Samsung galaxy s blaze and I came here to check out the ROMS and such.. but I noticed that there isn't one that is working without bugs and all. Is there a reason? Is there not enough devs here with the time or capability? I could easily help you guys out and all but I have no idea on development. If someone here is willing to show some stuff for me, I would be willing to take it! I think this is a great phone with a lot of capabilities so how about we get this phone in the show!? Thanks!
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using xda app-developers app
Development has been slow until recently. To date erikmm dark Knight build 4 is running smooth and without issue that I'm aware of. Also recently Erik also has cm7 running but the cam is not working. He has been working hard to get the blaze working better.
I agree the phone has huge potential. Its quick and fast
Would love to see other devs jump into the fray and I'm sure others would also
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda app-developers app
Yes I have seen that Erik has been working hard on this phone, he is a great dev and I know people look up to him. But we cannot leave everything up to him. If anyone else wants to join me, I would be willing to know everything he knows so we can have more people developing around here. Just saying, I could probably learn this stuff right off the bat maybe even from google. I will be around here for a while!

You/we can create a little team of amateurs. No offence if any taken..
Erik has been doing an amazing job but I often feel guilty because of all the pressure we may be putting on him lol. I think it's only fair to him if we can find another experienced developer help build ROMs for this phone and ease some of the weight off Erik. I am all for donating to buy another Developer a phone lol.

I'm am down for this if he is as good as you say. I am willing to open up a paypal account and kick start the donation with 10-20 dollars but first I need to confirm we'll have enough donators. We will likely need more than the last time because finding a blaze for $250 is not easy.
Please like this post if you're willing to donate to see lengthened and speed-up the development for this phone.

The other night I saw HTCClay pop up in the Blaze board. I remember using his ROM's years ago on the G1. The stuff he did back then was great on that phone. Between CM and Clay's ROM's, the G1 had life. I am not sure what he is doing or not doing but he has the Blaze also. I sent a message to him the other day to see if he is planning to cook something up for the Blaze.
Erik has accomplished a ton in the past few weeks as a one man show developing and releasing ROMs. Personally I have learned a lot working with him testing and checking the ROMs.
I personally think it would be great if we could get other dev's involved to help the cause.

I'm down with helping out guys. Erik is my team mate and a good friend and I'm always there for him. Even on this phone, i have helped him out with flashing scripts and such. My lightning zap tweaks, gremlin remover for sgs4g, and gummy mutt port for that same device have a well known reputation of their own. Not to mention the work i have done on a few HTC devices, LG nitro, captivate, and Sony s tab with other devs. If you guys could get me a phone, team kick ass would be complete and i think together Erik and i would make this phone phenomenal like we did with the sgs4g...

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.

Oh well, relax and drink some nog. We should try and get a forum game running over the holiday. Mafia anyone? =)
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.
Hold phone with my left hand, even though that's considered rude in some cultures.

I am new to the XDA group obviously by this being my first post! But I have had my G2x for going on 2 years, and just recently decided to root and load a custom ROM on it. I love it! It's like having a new phone! I am a noob in some since, but pretty a nerd as well. I just wanted to thank all the developers and such that provide all this vast information, knowledge and code to give us awesome instructions, roms, etc! Thank you all for your hard work and dedication! I wish I was as knowledgeable in coding to contribute!
should have some sort of "date a dev" thread, jeez you want a dollar for all that ridin'
