Thanks! - Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)

Just a quick note to the developers and senior members of this site. A couple months ago I found my way onto XDA armed only with the terms “root” and “brick”. I’ve made enough progress to familiarize myself with a little of the technical jargon, flash a couple of ROMs (I’m currently on CM7), read tons of material, and learned how to follow directions, especially in using Heimdall and CM recovery to flash.
Most of you are probably 45-50 years younger than me and 50 times smarter. Not only have I been impressed with the immense amount of talent shown by the developers, but also by the informative and courteous manner in which the devs and senior members have answered my (sometimes naïve) questions.
Thanks…

I'm 15 years old your 65?

Its nice to see a person your age willing to learn about current technology, my parents can't even operate a touch screen. Try cm9, you'll love it

Do you enjoy flashing rooms? I want to learn how to develop them

I do intend to try cm9 in the near future...unfortunately, I have to be in NYC all of next week and I'm going to flash back to stock GB because I'll need wifi calling constantly...those midtown buildings play havoc with signals.

Well its been an experence with you guys really. But at the moment im prob going to follow in krylons footsteps and be purly rootzwiki sorry its not xda... Xda is a great site. But with THe constant Trolling pretty much almost nit pick the roms to death hey guys to build audiophile do you realize its taken me litterly as much time as i spent at work i spent more time helping people install roms fix roms fix pretty much any issue. We are Devs we are not servents. Yes we try to take your advice and wants but we have to think of the community as a whole not the individual.
Sorry if my roms didnt live up to peoples expitatons As i have always stated im not a rom person but i can build them but sorry people have expetations that i cant meet and or features i wanna bring that i been working on i cant give it to you instantly. I will still support all of Team acid rom bug fixes i will allow my work to be reposted from rootzwiki to xda but as a whole I cant read though 50 pages of trollfest to see if someone has a issue i opened up a irc chat room in hopes we could give live support and whatnot to people and pretty much other then 5 people isnt used.. NOt saying its a requirement.
I wish u all the best of luck take care

Thank You and see you there!
Double posted, my bad
I know there are a lot of dumbasses and annoying noobs on XDA but to me the good members completely outweigh the bad members here. We can always ignore the dumb members. It's just a common side effect that happens when a forum gets big and popular. And I guarantee once RootzWiki gets more popularity it will as well get its fair share of obnoxious members.
There's slow development going on as it is for this phone over here, but I don't see what moving there would do when there's nothing interesting for this phone in that forum except for "A post your home screen thread"...
Like I said, there's more good members here than bad. Your decision is yours and that's fine, but I'm sure I speak for everyone when i say that I hope you come back. Or at the very least be on both forums.
Anyways, good luck! And thanks for the continuing contribution.

I will miss you here, having you on xda made it feel like a great place to be. Losing krylon and now you all of the good developers are leaving for one reason or another. You made my phone better, and you were going to make gingerbread awesome. I have much respect for all of the developers and the work that they do, its time consuming and sometimes frustrating, and everyone seems to demand more and more.

Btw, isn't there an ignore list for this forum? I was reading some post and one of the guys were saying "if I never respond to your post, that's because I put you on my ignore list."

Being a crybaby. Not seeking to learn.

Curious about why the Thunderbolt has at least a beta miui port and we're still stuck. I thought it was because we have no RIL in source for the 4G radio, so is that something they've been leaked/reverse engineered and we haven't?
To be upfront: By asking this question I AM indeed implying that the charge devs suck, I didn't search before posting, I expect ICS ported tomorrow, and that I believe I deserve to be served breakfast in bed. Thank you.

We clearly need to organize an OCCUPY DEVELOPERS organization and set up a tent city on the front lawns of these developers. Maybe then they'll realize that we want results.
99% of us aren't given the gifts of computer programming, and the 1% that do think they can just rule the XDA community with an iron fist.
We are the 99% who don't know what ADB is or how to use it. We disagree that the developers should have all the power. I wouldn't recognize linux of it politely introduced itself with a handshake and a smile. ODIN package... What is that? We refuse to read a single post in the thread before we complain and ask a question that had clearly been answered as recently as ten seconds ago because the world is all about us. And if a developer overlooks that one meaningless feature that I alone liked, it's my right to spam his thread with that demand instead of figuring it out for myself.
We can only bring about change by organizing and living in a shanty-town. And if the MODS at XDA use pepper-ban spray and move threads it will only make our cause stronger.

Same here. I thought maybe a mod edited the thread title at first, until I read all the replies LOL!
I think we should organize an OCCUPY MIUI movement and force them into dev'ing for our phone too. That way we can overtake their source code and all will be well in the Charge world!

Is any one still making roms for this device?

I know that making a rom takes a very long time but our device seems to only have 5-10 (maybe more) good/stable roms. every one else seems to be getting a lot more love. is it cause we have a miSense device?
Just because we don't have 30 CM9 roms with each a different name doesn't mean we don't have roms. It means we respect each others work and choose not to duplicate it and call it our own.

This. I honestly don't think we're lacking in types of rom that we have.
I mean, we have stock-tweaked, aosp, sense roms, CM roms, different versions of MIUI's. Hell, we even have JB in the making!
So, yes, they're still alive and making roms.
Well, the reason I don't complain is because I can't dev. There's just no time for it. Yeah I get jealous of other forums from time to time, but the alternative is learning how to make my own rom.
Better not to bite the hand that feeds you.
I personally think we have a group of great devs for this device who are very willing to share each others' work to benefit the community at large I am curious as to what TBalden has going right now cuz he's been awfully quiet lately.

Where better than most fourms right now. Some newer devices are all on stock based roms. Atleast we have CM9, and MIUI. Virtuoius, and tons of sense.

really?
I dont say much around here...but man oh man, i have to this time. First of all, a huge thanks to all the devs. I'd go by name but someone deserving would be left out...we may be short on kangs but we've got great roms. I'll take quality over quantity.
I had an ace previously. Dozens and dozens of roms, but they've just repeated themselves. There's only a handful of systems to be ported anyways.
Kernel development on this phone has been off the chains. Anything running on tbalden and kornyone's work has been smooth and slick.
Frankly, I knew when I got the phone that since sliders are kind of niche the scene would be smaller. Used the demo phone in the store to verify that cm was in a complete state. Which it most definitely is. Feeling pretty confidant that cm10/jb will reach completion.
Anyways, I'm probably gonna cry when this phone dies. Maybe you can sell me yours for a spare. Cuz if I ever have to turn mine in on insurance they'll probably try to hand me a different model.

It isn't anger you detect as much as it is frustration K7. What is plainly obvious to developers & other coders isn't so much to the rest of us just looking at the threads & available ROMs. I HAVE noticed though because of helping a friend out with an EVO 4G that many of the ROMs are little more than a redistributed but newly themed, customized & slightly altered versions of another popular ROM. Do that several times and you have 5 ROMs with little differences to the core program multiplied across 5 or 6 basic initial formats & you have plenty....kinda. If that was what was happening to the MT4Gs then we'd have 40+ ROMs 'listed' but few differences other than the new name.
This isn't meant to disparage any developers in other forums for other devices and it may very well be an isolated case but it is something I noticed.
Just my nickel's worth.....
I just don't understand the need to create new threads for topics that aren't new, insightful, or helpful
Sent from my myTouch_4G_Slide using xda app-developers app
40 half baked shlt roms, or a couple rock solid good ones?
you decide.
Also, it's good to mention that not every ROM for this device is at XDA.

Ok so where all the couple rock solid ones? The closest I've found is virtuous inquisition and even that has been giving me all kinds of issues lately. I don't want more ROMS necessarily, just one, vanilla, zero issues rom and id stick with this phone the rest of the year.

Not up to you to decide if you were banned unfairly. That's for the moderators to handle. You could have acted respectful and took it up with them. Instead you've been a **** and repeatedly forced your way back on. As a result I don't trust your work. If you're willing to act like a spoiled brat and disregard any rules that don't suit you, how do I know you haven't done something like installed a back door in your ROM? Maybe you haven't. But perhaps you can see why acting badly can damage your reputation?
I don't care what one member thinks. I do what benefits me and the community. Don't trust my work, everyone else will remain ahead. A Backdoor on an Android device? Considering the ROMs kernel was developed by nxd you're saying you don't trust him. Regardless, any back doors are easily found by
scanning the .zip and I'm very secure and have not had one alert. Here's a hint, only post in threads where your opinion is valued, because in this thread it is not.

Shut up u dumbass u are the one that sounds disrepecful right now. And you don't trust his **** well I have been running his rom and it is the most stable one I have found. Maybe he did brake some rules and got banned but the way I see it the mods don't really care about the sk4g and how the forum is dieing. So yeah he might have broke some rouls and **** but it was to help us and keep the sk4g alive when everyone eals baled. Some times rouls need to be broken. The needs of the meany outweigh the wants of the few.

Any roms working on vzw SCH-i705+

There was one early on by Mr Hyde which I installed and have been using ever since. That was discontinued about a year ago though. Was just wondering if there's been any development since.

C'mon man, don't be a troll. There are very few owners/users of your particular tab. Which is why there is little development for it. Have you seen Shakatus contributions to the community of P51xx.Take a look for yourself, and then try spouting off. If he, or any other, of the great devs around here actually had one of your models, maybe they may be able to figure something out. But, he doesn't. So he wont. Unless of course you want to send him yours to try, but I can guess the answer to that. Bashing people around here for problems that you are having (or unwilling to do anything about, except lean on others ie: learn something for yourself) is unacceptable and will be reported. No trolls allowed......next!
I wasn't trying to be crass....I will be happy to donate or whatever in order to advance the work on this model....but there's no current anything for this device.....I've ran down every link and thread trying to find anything useful to break VZW's hold on this device, so it's not a matter of not researching or being lazy....my apologies.
