I'm really thrilled with what's been accomplished so far. Without benefit of source we have a nice handfull of ROMS including a mostly working AOKP and CM9.
What we're lacking is ROOT on the now shipping 1.85. This means that fewer and fewer users will be able to install your amazing work as phones get replaced for warranty issues and new owners come to XDA looking to improve their devices.
I've started a bounty thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1699379 and the bounty is at $370 and climbing.
Please help.
Please devs this is a on the knees,begging,and almost shaking lol plea for root .
And as am I pleased with all that's been done so if ya can please help us out
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
I'm almost 100% sure someone is working on it somewhere.. all we need is an update!
Not trying to be a **** but I don't think begging for root will make it come any faster. This is kind of spamming the development section and you already have a bounty thread in general.

The development section is for releasing roms/tools/mods and collaborating on things that require development such as s-off/root. Maybe if OP started this thread as a thinktank thread and posted things he has tried already/ideas he has to obtain root on 1.85 then it would be appropriate here, otherwise it should be in general (where there are plenty of threads that talk about this already).
And you've contributed? Yea I think that if its an issue gunny will.be contacted by a mod. But thanks ?
And this is a step forward without root for newcomers this could get bad for all of us . So in theory this is a project for development and is some of us contributing time and money to better the community ,not just ranting and "spamming"

are you a moderator? report this thread to the mods and let them decide if it bothers you so much.
Yes I know what DEV is for. I believe that we have a special case and exigent circumstances here and spreading the word to the forum that DEVS actually look at makes sense yes?

Gunny I appreciate the effort you put in on general and this thread. Your right about alerting the devs bc the probably never go to general. Keep it up hopefully we'll get root sooner then later. We're on the same boat
Sent from my HTC One X using XDA
I appreciate this thread as well, because chances are, developers rarely head over to the general forums for this device.
Anyway, at this point I think root is probably in the works with some developers, but on the down-low.
If any developers would be willing to at least give us a status update, a thread like this wouldn't be necessary. But until then, this thread is definitely a good idea.
Also, add me to the bounty for $10.

Or does it seem like the sensation forums are getting more noobs than usual? I havent seen so many no development threads started in the development section. I think that it should be a rule that only Devs can create threads in the Dev section. Anyone can post, but only devs should be able to create a thread in that section
This belongs in the non-existant Q&A section
It's always gonna be like that. And no, It will never be over.

Agreed. But the device is still new and we don't have S-Off.
And you can't block for only devs to post in the development section because there may be a rare occasion that a new person to XDA will find something revenant and it actually go in that section.

Unfortunately there's just not enough Mods for that.
I just want to add...not flame here....
Keep in mind the 'early' release at wally mart, the instances of "upgrades" for some that got a deal on this great phone s-off and all.
For the price this piece of hardware is worth its weight in gold IMO. Me coming from a N1 and I assume most people had a hand in one as well. And for me the N1 did not have a subsidized carrier to discount the phone. If it ever was, I would say it would have been rare. Because of this, the N1 didn't have a big influx of noobs. It was price and brick and mortar stores that helped the sale this time around. If google did this with tmo first off, by this time the S4g was released, they could have built up a great marketing campaign IMO. But I digress...
So an influx of noobs? Sure you'd get these with every well made phone. Just the nature of the beast and marketing.
Kinda sucks, but being rude kept the idiots at bay and made them think before posting.

Why is it the wrong section???
Yes it has been posted all over the ICS ROM threads so it might be a little superfluous but all of those are in this section, so are you saying they should have been posted somewhere else as well?
While this particular thread is unnecessary it is absolutely relevant to the development of ICS ROMs and therefore it belongs in the development section.
Okay, everybody relax...

Everyone's just trying to help... including all three of you... so lets just keep the fuses a little longer and try to work with each other. Let the thread be... if it's not popular, it will move down on its own...

I didn't hit him anyway, it was just a hint, i even thanked him.
The thing is that the thread is for sure important for our developers, but got nothing to do with desire s development itself, it's a thread for a different device.
That's why it should be posted in the general section and not in the development section.
For sure i can understand that he posted it here, i also once opened a thread here that should have been at the general section and i was aware of it, but that's a different story with another background.

Here's a more important question for you. Why do people keep putting these idiotic posts about no development in the development section? If you just can't live without ROMs to flash start learning how to make them yourself instead of complaining about it.
Alright, this is the last time Im letting this happen. The rules clearly state not to post non-development threads in the Development section. The next person who does this will be sorry.
Development is for Development, not for asking questions or making stupid statements.

Im amazed at how different the communities are for various android phones.
Coming from iphones the last 3 years , i bought my first android phone (galaxy nexus) and the community was great, made me happy to make the switch.
Ive moved on to the one x and can safely say this is getting the the point of pathetic. On one hand we have people crying about the smallest of issues , then on the other, we have total hard asses constantly flooding the posts with their unnecessary comments (which is just as annoying).

I hope you aren't basing this mindset solely on what you've found in this thread, because this is hardly the prime example of what the HOX forums have to offer. In fact, I would say it's a very poor sampling. If you look around these forums you are surely going to find a bit complaining and trolling, but for the most part you are going to see that there is wonderful collaboration, praise, thanking, sharing, and comradery on a fairly remarkable level. If you dont like it, please feel free to find another device or forum that suits you better. But dont come here to flood a complaint thread with complaints about complaining, you're just perpetuating that which you allegedly find pathetic. Also keep in mind that these threads are quite new and the moderators are working hard to maintain decency and integrity herein.
This community here has been strong, informative and helpful to many Hox users. IMO, it has also been used to flame, disrespect, and challenge personal opinions in several threads. I myself have fallen into this pit. I just wanted everyone to read a thread posted in the EVO LTE forums from a person whom not only fell into this pit himself, but recognized it and publically corrected himself to better bring back his community. Im not implying anything against the Hox community, but just hope it can serve as an example, that we stand stronger united and can/will accomplish much more as individual minds coming together. Not individuals thinking a mind. Please click the link below, to read how this xda member noted his closed mindness, and forfeited it for the good of his community.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=29136185
With this said, there are great feats still to be accomplished for the Hox devices. Let's all put our 2 cents in where we can, put away the other 98, and make these feats into accomplishments!!

Beings I didn't know my way around the threads and it was my 3 day old first android phone. Ppl are looking to learn, receive help, and also give help when able to. Nobody comes here asking to be bashed on or fussed at like a kid.

You also have to understand the flip side of the coin. People come here and start threads to ask the same basic questions that people have answered 500 times already. Questions that would have been easily answered in 10 seconds had they done a search first. Its frustrating.
Yes, there are no stupid questions. Yes we were all noobs at one point. Part of learning is figuring basic out things yourself by doing some research though.

Agreed 100%. There are a million threads that could have been avoided simply by SEARCHING. If you can navigate to XDA using your browser, you have the skills necessary to use the search function. People are just lazy and don't want to do any reading, they'd rather someone just respond with an answer. Super annoying, my .02.

This. It is painfully evident when people don't search even though they say they do when and that's when I'll come in with a snarky post. You can't tell me you searched for the method to root 1.85 when there is a STICKY with the procedure in development, and 4 other threads on the first two pages of Q+A asking the same question, with people providing answers. Sorry, but I don't buy it. If you want me to put forth some effort into helping you, you must put forth the effort to help yourself first.
That all said, if it shows that you did do some research but still need some clarification on a few things, you betcha I will be willing to help to the best of my ability. I may be an asshole sometimes, but I am actually a really nice guy and I do enjoy helping people out. Just don't start our e-relationship on a lie ("I searched, I swear!") and we'll get along famously.
Training noobs, snarky fun posts, they help teach and make xda a fun place. Mostly, I'm referring to the heated debates, and hateful posts that have crippled some of our unreplacable threads and formed hatefulness between members. By all means, I love when an opportunity arises for me to get a few people to laugh, please, keep them coming when you see fit

I agree that there are times where a lot of us get really upset and lose our cool. And that we should try to keep that to a minimum.
But this isn't exactly a forum for extremely basic questions at the same time, even though we all have some from time to time, there are tons of other forums like that though. And some people are obviously trolling too ("HTC done it wrong" guy, lol....)
The only thing that ticks me off about this community are the "should I get a galaxy s3" threads. No one cares. This is an enthusiast forum for the HOX. If you want to talk gs3 go over there.
If this was a BMW enthusiast forum you would be flamed to hell if you wrote a topic like "should I switch to a mustang?".
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
XDA was a great place even when I joined during the GS1 era. However, it slowly turned into turned to crap with the success Android garnered though. Aside from the flame bait or post-purchase rationalization threads, the general user of this forum feels the developers OWE it to the users to make their devices better, for free. Not even joking. There were some people who expressed that in their posts in the Nexus S forums. Then there are the people who don't even bother to read instructions or stickies and when they brick their device they blame the developers. I like to help people as much as the next guy once being a noob myself, but it ain't fun when I answer the same question I know I answered last week.

Why don't we create a thread specifically for noobs,beginners in android,people who came from iphone and people that are lost in what to do..and put it in Dev thread..entitled "Lost,Confused and Dont know what to Do"..since I think everyone would go to the Dev Thread first before reading the General and Q&A thread..something like Help Support..where anybody can help...

People will say "No one ever answers anything there" Same thing happens with the Q&A now as well...
Seriously though, what pushed my buttons was the whole HOX vs whatever. watch a damn dogfight or go to cnet... lol

Not going to help the numerous people who don't search, don't read, and don't even look at the thread titles before posting their problems.

Agreed. plus we do have quite a few comprehensive noobs guides already in place, but you need to be willing to read...
How many times do you see a question asked that was answered just a few posts prior within the same thread.
I applaud the vast majority of devs we have here for their patience for not getting pissed off when their thread gets completely derailed...
I'm by no means an expert but I do a lot of reading and I learn a lot of things, for the vast majority it's all here...
