Thank you samsung

Even though it took you a while, you finally gave us something. There are way too many threads complaining, but not enough saying thank you. So, samsung:
Thank you.

With how long it took for Froyo and the SGS 2 coming out, I have my doubts. We can hope though!

This is like thanking a hooker.

Or thankn my boss for my paycheck...

They gave us "something" because they promised to give it to us. They didn't do it out of sheer goodwill.
Samsung promised the update when the phone was released and only now are they following through on their promise. Many people bought the phone with updatability in mind. You can think of this update as a "service" that they had to fulfill, not something that we should be grateful for.
It's like thanking your mechanic for fixing your car or your waiter for refilling your water. We paid for them to do it.
Now if we get Gingerbread, that would be a different story. What would be something worth thanking and being grateful for.

I thank my waiter for refilling my water. Just because it's someone's job doesn't mean they don't deserve thanks.

I guess all you thankful types have no problem with putting money in the tip jars at fast food restaurants, either.

Eff this thread. What a ho you are.

THIS THREAD SHOWS HOW MANY PEOPLE ARE MIS-INFORMED
Samsung released 2.2 MONTHS ago to Providers. Some providers in europe and canada (rogers) all released 2.2 for captivate months ago to the public.
AT&T releasing 2.2 is not Samsung. Samsung did their job. ON TIME. ATT DIDNT.
thats also why the new AT&T 2.2 added nothing new to XDA. NOTHING. we already had that AND BETTER.

When you asked your waiter for water, he promised soon, but instead went to the table next to yours and filled up their glasses a couple of times. You were still thirsty, so the people sitting at the other table shared their water with you. You were just about done with the meal, then finally the waiter came and poured you a glass of water. Do you thank them?

Did the waiter take 7 months to refill your water when you thanked him?

(ROM)[COMING SOON]Carbonite_Mecha_CM7_ALPHA

I have a few people testing this rom out. If you want to be my test dummy pm me.
Sent from my Carbonite using XDA App

Wouldn't CM7 fill that void, and this just be a skinned version of it? You should probably give credit where credit is due, and in this case that would be a LOT to the Cyanogenmod team, since all you're doing is putting a skin on it (and there are already a few skins available for CM7 alpha).

I haven't released the rom yet so no credit has to be given at this time. So thanks for the heads up.
Sent from my Carbonite using XDA App

Paint me skeptical -- and if I'm wrong, and my skepticism is unfair and unjust, then I do certainly apologize beforehand -- but you have like 2 posts, you claim you don't own a Thunderbolt, yet you've made a CM7 build that is "skinned." You're extremely vague in your post, there are no screenshots, no additional information, nothing. I wouldn't dare flash your ROM without some credit given and some credibility.

That's good news for you because its not a ready rom yet. Hense no screenshots. And yes I'm very vague because I've only started this project. So keep your panties out of a bunch and hold tight.

wow... lot of hostility here.. at least let the guy come out with whatever he has to offer and then start your critiquing.

I don't see any devs leaving the Bolt... You post a thread (in the General section mind you) with very little detail and a total of 4 posts, then when people call you on it you throw a fit and claim that "you now know why so many devs quit the Thunderbolt project"...
Question, who are all these devs that have quit?

Don't let the door hit you on the way out! Thanks for stopping by, and when you create your next account on the forums, try to put your Master's Degree thinking cap on before you make posts like these.

don't be discouraged.. make your rom and put it up in the dev forum. If you are the same carbonite who worked on the Incredible device.. I'm sure you'll have people here who'd appreciate your work.

I hate the Thunderbolt community. Go look in the Eris forums. It's a ****ty ass phone and they don't have anyone complaining about the devs there. Grow up everyone.

[App][2.1+] BeerTimer, On a boring party?

On a boring party?
Follow these steps:
1. Grab your android device
2. Open android market
3. Search for BeerTimer
4. Download BeerTimer
5. Make boring party a success!
No seriously, I have developed an nice little app that lets your android phone time how fast one can drink fluids! It uses your phones acceleration to sense when the table it lays on is being hit.
Usage: Lay phone on a table, hit the table once to start the stopwatch, then again to stop the time. One use is to time how fast one can drink fluids (beer chug game).
Or if you don't drink bear, then it's just a great stopwatch with a beer in the background!

That is on the way! Not sure when im done with it. Thinking about give people able to register for referee rights so that they can verify times and upload them to a global scoreboard!

I got a tip about using facebook for scores. And a way to create local tournaments (aka at house party) with dedicated referees. Any thoughts?

Damn, i'm a wimp. Regular 12oz can of beer 14 seconds. Gotta work on my chugging. Thank you, this app just opened my eyes as to Joe slow I am.

If this is a serious question, there is a brief explanation in the app as well in the description.
You have a bottle/can of beer. You hit the table which the phone is running this app on and start to chug the beer. When you are done, you smack the can/bottle in the table and the timer stops.

Iris for Android ( sort of Siri ) is here

From Techcrunch:
Siri for android is here
While voice control has been part of Android since the dawn of time, Siri came along and ruined the fun with its superior search and understanding capabilities. However, an industrious team of folks from Dexetra.com, led by Narayan Babu, built a Siri-alike in just 8 hours during a hackathon.
Iris allows you to search on various subjects including conversions, art, literature, history, and biology. You can ask it “What is a fish?” and it will reply with a paragraph from Wikipedia focusing on our finned friends.
The app will soon be available soon from the Android Marketplace but I tried it recently and found it a bit sparse but quite cool. It uses Android’s speech-to-text functions to understand basic questions and Narayan and his buddies are improving the app all the time.
The coolest thing? The finished the app in eight hours.
When we started seeing results, everyone got excited and started a high speed coding race. In no time, we added Voice input, Text-to-speech, also a lot of hueristic humor into Iris. Not until late evening we decided on the name “iris.”, which would be Siri in reverse. And we also reverse engineered a crazy expansion – Intelligent Rival Imitator of Siri. We were still in the fun mode, but when we started using it the results were actually good, really good.

I used it on Nexus S running stock rom 2.3.6 and 2.3.4. Galaxy s2 on stock rom works on all of them.
Outstanding work in 8 hours. I think it's not a market releasable version right now... polish it, add more skills to Iris.
Keep up the good work and +1 for the name.

I just notice its in the market now. Pretty good for 8 hours of work. I wonder what they can do with more time?

great job guys in just 8 hrs... im sure you guys will keep us posted on further devolpements..

Yeah its impressive for 8 hours of work :O now time to polish it with time and upgrades.
Gratz!! Awesome job

I downloaded it and, while I haven't had a chance to play with it much (I work at an ATT authorized retailer), I did like what I saw and have been telling my Android customers about it all day

So I ask: "what is 2+2"
Iris responds: "Conan O'Brien, he is very white"
Then I ask: "what is 2x2"
Iris responds: "Harry Potter"
Seems to work perfect to me.

I used this today and it sucked.

App is good. But analyzing stuff has a lot of scope to improve.

I tried asking the questions shown in the screenshot of the OP, i got nothing remotely like that lol. Any question i asked ended up "i'm too tired to respond now, try asking me again later"

At the least, it is entertaining. Perhaps not as useful as SIRI in giving accurate answers. But my family is having a blast asking and frequently laughing at the responses. That, is priceless. Thanks!

Say what you would like. And be thankful that you have that right to do so. This is for a Dev. that is on our device and I and many others would like to voice the way we feel about it.
