Taking a little sanity break - Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)

I've put in some pretty hard time since November.
Think about that for a minute. November... It hasn't been that long since RaverX3X triggered me to start working on the sgs4g.
Eight months and we've accomplished quite a bit.
I had some more ideas in store. But lack of job, sleep, sanity, money, and focus on my own life is putting me in a pretty negative place. I don't need that negativity spilling over into this and other forums.
I hope you all can understand where I'm at.
Have no fear though... I heard from a little bird that another dev is coming back to fill the void.

Hope everything works out for you Bryan! Wish you the best.

Take all the time you need to get your head on straight, man! Thanks for everything you've done for this device! I recommend spending some time in nature, friend... as long as it's not blistering hot. Hope you find yourself soon!

appreciate for what you did. if i did have a job i would donate.....

Hi Bryan
Wishing you all the best!
Take care of all you need and do what's best.

Good luck with everything!
As a father of four....I do understand.

I wish you the best of luck Bryan. Sometimes stepping away is the best solution. Hope everything works out for you.

We wouldn't be where we are today if not for you Bryan. Thanks for sticking with it!

Thanks for all you've done for this phone. Things are working better than ever.
I may have a job lead for ya. Check out the Omni group in interbay. Mac developing. I think they have job listings on their website. Its pretty close to your family.
Come on out for a beer anytime. Ill be sure to bring what I forgot last time.
Again, many thanks!

Bhundven you have done more than enough I hope u get some rest and everything goes well thanks for your hard work.

Seriously, thanks for all that you have done. Things have moved a ton on the last few months and you were huge. If you get vacation at a Real job, you should definitely get some at the one that you don't get paid for. Looking forward to when you come back tho

P/s: good luck again , all best wishes for you and your family, especially your adorable children ...

You've done much more than we could ever ask for, and life is already hard as it is without the extra pressures pushing against you. Take care, man.

Goof luck wherever the road of life takes you.

Sanity is highly overrated. lol However I hope you keep yours. Some of the discussions we've had have been a blast. See you around.

General thanks (given the season)

So I was thinking on the way home, how great the forums have gotten lately. For while there it got slow and really negative as everyone said the good dev work had left. But there are some really great people still here working hard on a great phone.
With that I want to say thanks to people like bedwaa, jordanelliott, bigfau, entropy, dman, supercurio, linuxbozo, dagr8 (and I am sure others that i am forgetting) that have made these last few weeks fun. I am sure there are more to come.
Also thanks to those who try and help others without flaming and contribute nicely to making more development. I pledge to continue helping when I can.
So without that, thanks, I love my phone and can do more with it than most of my dumbfounded friends and family. Makes me feel smart (that's a first).

+1 on a huge thanks to all who make my infuse mine.
Happy hollidays....and thanks...
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using xda premium
Another +1 for this thread.. Our little community rocks pretty hard as of late. Great job everyone.
Again, dman, thank you. What I really find cool, especially with all the roms lately, is that each rom seems to be different for everyone 's phone. What works for one person might be glitchy for someone else. That's cool, move on to another great rom.

On a lighter note...

Aside from the feds killing megaupload, noobs being noobs, and certain people talking about leaving the forums... Anybody got something good going on in their lives? Dont take this the wrong way and flame me as im sure some of you will, I would just like to hear some good news for once! It doesnt matter what its about or wether or not it is relevant. If youve got good news and you want to tell it to somebody, post it. PLEASE!

Good news of the day:
The feds have backed off trying to kill off all our favorite websites, at least for now!
I know, that is relevant, but I got mostly bad news in my life at the moment. So that's the best I can do.

I love this community, I was just telling alon2 this week how i prefer a small filled with challenges community over fed to the mouth overcrowded community, other phones have.
This is what drove me to query more and customize a ROM.

Classic man. I can't believe I've never heard that one before. AS for me I'm having my first cup of coffee and that's always a good thing.
Sorry for not owning an SGS4G, Tapatalk got me here, and I like th concept of this thread.
So, apart from that, we could leave school early, and classmates are really excited about the app I'm working on .
Good enough to share in my opinion...
Have a nice day!

Got accepted for a Weather Radar Network undergraduate research and changed a library class for another technology related and it made my schedule much organized and beautiful.
My gf visited me at my lodge these days and now Im going to take a nap.
It could be perfect day if I end up eating sushi and flashing a new rom.
I got paid today. That makes me smile. Well, until I look at my bills anyway.

I just put ICS 4.0.3 on my Nexus S 4G. My kids are asleep for the night and I'm enjoying some home-brewed Starbucks Coffee while I play on the phone and computer.

I wish u all well

Just wanted to state that atm other then working iwth miui station to get miui fixed and if bryan and FB need help pretty much all my sgs4g development is done its been a great ride some fun times some not so fun times.. Was here sence pretty much the beginning when all we had was stock nothing else. But like any piece of software there comes a time when well there isn't much else we can do. Once bryan gets cm7 working it will prob help me and miui station get miui working properly.
After that I wish u all the best of luck and see u in whatever device u goto...
Forever yours

To the jerk that challenged me to do better and then left...
You're my best friend.
Can't wait for you to come hang out!
Thanks for challenging me to start the kernel, the one-click collection, and CM7.
It will suck to be the only RD in this forum. I'm almost tempted to buy your phone but make you keep it, just to keep you around.
But OTOH, getting a new phone and doing something new is good for you.
And, we're still teamacid/nerd, so the fun doesn't end (unless you leave us too... )
As always,
-TheOtherJerk (Bryan)
@ bryan Your welcome. I sitll plan on finishing out cm7 and miui lol. If were not striving for excellence in what ever we do whats the point in doing it you kinda tought me that.. I just tought you persistence pays off there was many of times where we both were going to quit gave up then turned around and fixed it sometimes simplicity is the new form of art.
Ya man i dont know what i would do with out ya.
Unless bryan you want to do what no one has ever done before... Creat ICS from something that Samsung will never give us lol... That might actually well decuss that lol ;P

Sorry to see you go bro. Thanks for all of the hours you put in. Your collaboration with Hawkx with Vahalla Black is IMHO the #1 ROM for the SGS4G, and the only "Themed" GB ROM that looks (AND RUNS) better than stock - it's been on mine and my wife's phones since you released it.
Thanks and good luck.
Thanks raver for everything you have done for this community and everything you have taught me. You have been a great teacher. You have inspired me to finish ICS now...lol... See you around man...

take it easy raver, i'll probably see you in the GSIII forums in the future.
I'll be dumping the gs2/3 line.
I'm going for AOSP 5.0 flagship phone. It might be a galaxy though??? Galaxy Nexus 2?
Oh well, thanks for everything raver. Still counting on MIUI. but hey, thanks for making this phone usable!
Thanks Raver for all you've done. I have followed you and Team Acid since coming to these forums and have learned alot. See you in the SGS2 forums.
10x 4 everything Raver.

Just wanna say, Thank you.

Just wanted to take a moment and say thank you, not only to the amazing devs that have helped me out thus far, but also to the flashers, testers, and the rest of the infuse community. As a beginner dev i had no clue what i was getting into but through all the help of the senior devs i have come along way, so far the rom i released has gotten high praises and that means a lot to me. I started development on my rom to learn, progress and share. And so far its going exactly that way. You guys and your support is what keeps me going and wanting to learn/do more. Keep up all the good work, and keep up the amazing support guys. Thank you to everyone. Have a great night/day!

Yes, I appriciate you all for your hard work.
I want to thank all the devs too, that have contributed to fantastic work to make my Infuse 4G run smoother and fast. Most devs have taken out all bloatware and installed great apps to make my phone run at it's best performance. 1000 thanks, "I am so very grateful".

The beer fund is probably the reason why there are little bug in the roms....one hangover, you putting the wrong file in the wrong folder and BOOM........Bluetooth is not working!!!
I'm just kidding we know most of you work better when you are drunk
Donate guys donate it's very important

Ya talked me into it...

So, a few days ago I saw several things that got me REALLY pissed off... Well, after several heart filled PMs from you guys, I realize how important I am, or some feel, to this community. I have reposted most of my work (still waiting on update download links for Lightning Zap).
To those of you who have kanged not just me, but everyone else, at least give us the credit that everyone here deserves for their hard work. It's pretty lame that YOU would take someone elses hard work and pass it off on another website as your own. I don't care if the website/forum you are using is in a different language other than English. I can still figure out what you are saying. I have registered for some of those sites, and you can bet your ass that I will be seeking recourse!
To FB, I apologize for jumping to conclusions on your Gummy build. I will be on IRC this evening so you can get me setup with what I need, and I will HAPPILY, take over what you started for us.
To everyone on XDA that supports me and all the other Devs, I apologize to you the most. If at any other time I choose to leave, I will give everyone fair notice and an oppurtunity to take over where I have left off.
To Erik, my team mate and friend, thanks for talking my down and getting some sense back into my head.
To my wife, thanks for listening and backing up Erik...lol
I, for one, am happy to hear that your staying...
Holy ****, when did this happen!? Dude, thomas! Some of you're stuff is effin' genius! You're doing the right thing, seeking "recourse". That's pretty sorry that someone is hijacking your stuff. +1 for being glad you didn't run off. GR has repeatedly saved my ass!
Is it bad that I actually shed a tear when you left!? I'm so happy you back to finish the gummy rom and thank you for coming back thomas you just made my week from **** to AAAAAHHHHHMMMMAAAZZINNNGGGG!
It's great you're staying. I have always used GR and been really grateful for that. So, keep the good work rolling out.
BTW thomas, just for curiosity... is it possible to make a GR but instead of KG4 a ROM that can be used to directly flash CM9? TIA.
Welcome back bro. This place is like Hotel California. lol

Thomas I not going to write the bible lol but in few words a can say to you that............................ohhhh yeah
Glad to see you will be around... Your work has been, not only important but, life- saving for a lot of us. You were sorely missed for the little while you were gone. Welcome back!

I wouldn't be a good teammate if I didn't talk you into staying for the long haul
Edit: I talked hechoen into staying as well lol guess I'm next lol
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda app-developers app
Thomas I was wondering what was going on. Glad you thought about it and talked it over man.
Wow! Have i got the warm and fuzzies right now or what! Comments like this, and guys like you all, really make this worht while. All of you always thank the Devs, but I think it is time, at least for this guy, to thank you for all of your support.
For the record, CM7/CM9 gremlin remover is in the works. I'm having a little difficulty pulling the dump, but it is in the works. In addition to that, I'm working on an ICS based Lightning Zap that will blow away the tweaks we currently have.
And if that isn't enough, I have received some information from a user named chastity that has inspired an addittion to GR concerning battery life, stability, and performance on CM7/CM9...
What the hell did I miss!....
Never mind,I don't want to know.....however I am glad you changed your mind....and are back.
omg! ICS LZ FTW!!!!!!
Hi Thomas
You're always wanted here.

Glad to see you your still here, keep up the good work I have seen what happens to device threads when all the devs get chased off just look at slatedroid on the Cruz tablet section. It is a sad thing when all you have. You are an asset that would have been missed.
