He just posted today in development forum to announce that KB1 source is out. This, after we've known about it for a week, and already have custom kernels built off the source. Makes me want to add a second punchline to a joke I read:
There was a pilot flying a small single engine charter plane, with a couple of very important executives on board. He was coming into Seattle airport through thick fog with less than 10m visibility when his instruments went out. So he began circling around looking for landmark. After an hour or so, he starts running pretty low on fuel and the passengers are getting very nervous. Finally, a small opening in the fog appears and he sees a tall building with one guy working alone on the fifth floor. The pilot banks the plane around, rolls down the window and shouts to the guy "Hey, where am I? To this, the solitary office worker replies "You're in a plane." The pilot rolls up the window, executes a 275 degree turn and proceeds to execute a perfect blind landing on the runway of the airport 5 miles away. Just as the plane stops, so does the engine as the fuel has run out.
The passengers are amazed and one asks how he did it. "Simple" replies the pilot, "I asked the guy in that building a simple question. The answer he gave me was 100 percent correct, but absolutely useless, therefore that must be Microsoft's support office and from there the airport is just a while away."
As they are getting off the airplane, they see a lone figure running down the runway screaming, "I know where you are. You are in Seattle." Everyone asks the pilot, "Who is this guy?" The pilot says, "Samsung tech support."

I would have loved to but that might not have been a good thing. I know I said I would keep you up to date and you guys know as much as I do right now. I will see what I can find out today.
On a personal note. This is not the stance of XDA or other mods, just me. I would not worry about SJ. He seems to be as much help as a blind nature guide, but i will find out something and let you guys know what is going on. (no promises though lol)
Blind nature guides lead you on fun adventures! Sure you'll stumble around a little bit, but with lots of hope you might eventually get to where you want to go!

New feature on TiBu:
I never noticed this until today. Since the last update, dropbox has been integrated into TiBu that allows to upload the backup files to dropbox, as a secondary storage location in addition to storing on phone. This can be enabled by selecting enable dropbox option under preferences. Deselecting dropbox feature erases the dropbox stored credentials too, and will prompt user to enter them again when enabling again.
Please do not flame me if u already know about this. Am putting it here since this came in a silent update, and unless a person reads changelog/plays with preferences would not come to know. In fact the dropbox sync button is not visible until u enable it in preferences. (I noticed this only today )
I am not sure if free version too has this or not, but I sure have this feature in mine (paid version).
Note: I created a new set of backup using industrial encryption (1024 bits) for added security, and then uploaded to dropbox.
i have had that option since january....
not new, not silent!
Not available in free version.

ah i never used the free version for more than a day... google.
I haven't been able to make it work. I keep getting a Dropbox error. What a bummer, one of the main reasons I bought the premium version was to get the dropbox support.

(sorry took a bit to reply, didn't want to use my 400th post on this haha)
So right now were trying to make sure that the future of HTC's phones dont get knocked out because of the encrypted bootloader they are trying to force upon us so im just writing this to you all to make sure that the XDA members know whats going on and I was wondering if you all can help us out, these are the details:
right now i'm sure your aware of what is going on in HTC's facebook page and i wanted to know if you
would read up on what is going on and show that everyone is wanting this to be unlocked.
This first link is the petition that were all signing to show to HTC that we are wanting this:
http://www.groubal.com/htc-bootloade...nd/#signatures
We want more to know about it so i was reaching out to all of you right now.
this second link is the conversation that a member who started this had with a sprint rep on facebook, it shows that sprint is not the one responsible for the locked bootloader and that they are not trying to push for it.
https://www.facebook.com/sprint/posts/156658601067283
This last link is just what xda is thinking of it
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1094914
we know that they made a statement but we want to make sure that they know that we all want this to be unlocked
So pass this along and let everyone know what is happening! thanks for your help!
The links are dead. I think this is a bogus post. Admins, please review and close this thread if it is.

Seems like sprint isn't pushing this on them though, based on what i've seen with this info it seems its HTC's part here that they want to protect their Sense UI most likely. but you can help and try to change the future because that's not something i want and i'm sure no one in xda wants this either

Well, I'm not a noob. And what I post or say is well, none of your business. You're not a moderator, and until you become one (which I hope I never come to that day), then you can tell me what to do or not.

You guys realize that you just look like security guards, right? No real power, but love to think you do by being sarcastic flamers. You're annoying for no other reason than to think you're somebody you're clearly not. You took time to be annoyed instead of continuing to scroll. Maybe if you left your parents' basement for an hour, you would realize how ridiculous you look to people with lives.
That being said I would love to see a port and will offer to add to the bounty. Thanks OP for getting this started.

Whether or not they are being like security guards, they are right about this going in general. As there is currently no actual development taking place, this is just a thread clogging the dev section. Until there is at least a preview build, this should be moved. Honest mistake by the op.
