This should be posted in general and will lead to flaming even if that isn't your intent.

it was posted here because its about the rom? i might still be wrong though...and its not really my fault if people start flaming about wanting iOS on an android.
People won't start flaming because they want it, it'll be just the opposite. It's a question about a rom that isn't in development and doesn't exist It belongs in general.

Exactly, why buy an Inspire in the first place if you want ios (which will most likely never happen on our phones).
What in the world....
buy an iphone, problem solved.

If the Inspire was like an iphone I would have never bought one !!!!!!!!!!!!!! LOL
Flames aside, most of iOS isn't open source. It's core, Darwin, is but it's ARM port is not. Really, it'd be re-inventing the wheel just to have a BSD-based base instead of a Linux one that already works.
There currently is no way, and probably never will be.
And there's a reason they managed to run Android on an iPhone and no one's tried to run iOS on an Android phone........
Besides, don't you think MIUI beats the pants off iOS? IMO, MIUI says "Hey iPhone. Check this out."

In addition to extremely difficult and/or painstaking, there are legal ramifications to worry about. Apple has a habit of ripping the heads off of people who infringe on their patents/copyrights. Don't think that this board isn't monitored in one way or another. I doubt anyone would want to risk legal action to make a ROM that probably wouldn't be of much interest to the Android community as a whole.
I love Android over iOS for everything, except the lack of 3D games =(.
I would love to have Ace Combat, Metal Gear Solid, etc. on my phone... :/.
Just as the article mentions, its like the echo, now i personally dont like it as a phone but a tablet...idk tbh now the whole concept really looks like a 3ds lol, you guys think this thing will sell? What will be the major selling factor? hardware? bootloader? updates?

Maybe if the echo wasn't so God damn ugly and had better hardware.. people would buy it
A drop of Chuck Norris's semen was placed on Android OS. We now have CyanogenMod.

Honestly right now the iPad looks more appealing than any Android OS tablet. I think Android needs to work on polishing Android for tablets a bit more.

Just report the thread at the top right hand corner to see it go away. I feel like I shouldn't visit Android Central on a daily basis because I can find all the articles on the XDA Evo section.
I don't doubt that this dual screen idea could be more of a future norm, so long as it is done right. Have gotten some hands on time with the Echo and while you sort of get the idea, it just really seems tacky. At least I came away from the Echo with that feeling. I'm more interested in dual screen displays than 3D as well.
So long as it's done right, all around.

If they'd build this so that there's a flush (seemless) connection between the screens I'd seriously consider these ....as it is their just.... stupid.
Keep the thread on subject. I am moving it to General as it does not belong in the EVO section.
The concept is nice, however I just cant get over the gap in the middle between the two screens, it really ruins the experience for me. Now if they do it RIGHT and allow true multitasking between each window this will be a good competitor; the screens are 5.5 inches so that's just big enough to allow full featured browsing/operation on each screen.

iThink (see what I did there? ) it's more to do with the fact that XDA is a 'Windows Phone and Android' development site, plus the iPhone is a completely different device to everything else. You can't flash custom ROMs on it or anything like that, all you can do is jailbreak it (as far as I know).

Most popular phones include their sections because development is different between them. And, as you can see, IOS has it's own section just like android, wp7 and the others. So I don't see any hate at all, just logically organised forums...

If I could be so blunt and I don't mean it in a derogatory way, iPhones are not really a smartphone,they are smart to the masses who feel they have to fit in and they are special to the people who make them I suppose. A completely overated device that only lets you do what the makers want you to do, it's a fashion accessory and nothing else.
Every phone listed on this site can do exactly the same and better and the makers believe in letting the consumer decide how they want their phone that they've paid for to behave,power to the people.
IPhones=power to noone except the "brand".

Scott had locked both of his threads thanks to a few xda members who had problems, and decided to take it out on him.

I'm amazed at how some people can act like little children.
I never used any of Scott's work before but I've heard he turned out some pretty kickass stuff.
*sigh* People will never learn.
When people ignore mods telling them to knock it off, you know it's not going to end well.
Maybe a timeout for a day or two will let cooler heads prevail in the end.
I understand, if I was in Scott's position I would probably do the same. I just thinks it's funny how things clearly say what to do, and someone still messes it up.
I just sucks that people have to take it so far as to blame the dev for not doing something. When it for one flashing any thing has always been at your own risk, and two getting pissed off, and posting a nasty thread instead of just asking for help politely.

His work is great, I mean the s3 forums are donating to get him a phone. That alone should say something.

I agree... Ban them, god I hope Scott comes back, one of the only reasons to keep this phone. I was worried and stated that this could happen, I saw it in the Vivid thread.

Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
So I have a few choice words that I think this entire forum should read, but its mainly directed to whomever was talking crap about Scott. And I don't know who it was. And I apologize for the occasional profanity, but its stuff like this that really hits home for me.
As developers, we try to enhance the user experience of our phones for the good of the community. We don't get anything out of developing besides the occasional donation that someone gives us since they like our work. We aren't forced to do the work that we do. I can turn around right now and cease all development on the two ROMs I do (AOKP and Evervolv) for this phone. But I don't. Want to know why? Because of all the people in the threads saying "Wow, this ROM is awesome! Thanks Rohan!" and "This made my phone really awesome! Thanks!". If I didn't have those people then I wouldn't feel like updating the ROM. Even if you aren't using my ROMs and you drop in to say "This looks awesome, though I will wait for more stability!" That feels good too since you know someone still liked your work.
When you have someone calling you "selfish" and "annoying" it gets to you. When you put your work out, you want it to be the best. When it isn't the best, you try to make it the best. Thats why I and every other developer on XDA update and fix bugs. We want the ROM to be the best it can be. Thats why I stay up regularly till 2 AM looking up new Android features and the Platform Guide on the android developer site. I want to become a better developer for the community. Not for myself, but for the community. When you have someone degrading yourself, you feel like ****. And when you don't feel good about your work, you feel like the community is not enjoying your work. At that point it becomes a "why bother even updating this" sort of thing.
So when someone is being an asshat in the forums against you, it hurts. If you think that putting these ROMs out benefits us, the developers in any way besides the infrequent donation, you are sorely mistaken. We put these ROMs out for the community. I enjoy making ROMs for the community because I like to see all of the "Great job!" posts in my thread. It vindicates my work and proves me right that I can indeed make a ROM people like. Sure, the donations are an added plus and they help as well.
And now onto the "selfish" part of that statement. Are. you. effing. kidding. me. Seriously? You call us selfish. After staying up late hours to get a ROM out for YOU, you turn around and call us selfish? I dont even know what to say to that statement. We are not "selfish." You think putting our name onto a ROM is the best prize in the world? Why the flying f*** would we need that? So that people know my name? Are you effing kidding me?
So whomever it was, GTFO. The work that we do as developers benefits nobody but the people of these forums. We, the developers help make XDA how great it is. If you don't want to deal with developers, please, go back to stock. We don't need you to run our ROMs.
And to the rest of you, thank you for showing your support. Its a sad day when someone as nice as Scott is lost due to a few spoilt brats in the forums. And please, if you are using a custom ROM and you are enjoying it, tell your developer that you like it. Tell them that this phone became better because of their work. I promise you that we read the posts when we have time. And whenever we do it makes us feel a bit more warm and fuzzy inside.

I swear to god, I hate what xda has become. there are only a select few that put in any hard work for the rest to reap the benefits of, and there are always a sh!t ton of brats who think that they paid for these ROMs when they paid for their phones. It doesn't work that way, you sniveling little d!ckheads. These devs don't work for the manufacturers, the carriers, or xda- they do it FOR FREE, FOR US, because they kick ass, and they deserve nothing but respect from ALL OF US.

Yep, back when the SD card wiping issues first started happening he told everyone not to use CWM and to use TWRP instead. Buuuut people don't want to do any actual reading so it becomes Scott's fault for not showing up at their doorstep and holding their hand for them when they flash his ROMs, cross the street, take a piss, what have you. Bottom line is if you flash, you assume ALL risk. It's your own damn fault for not reading. Even if you're flashing an updated version of the ROM you've been running for months, ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS read the entire OP for changelog, flash instructions, etc. The moron in question said that it's because his xda app didn't put the warning in red but bottom line is it was still there. Had he READ THE ENTIRE OP, he would have seen the warning whether it was red, green, blue or purple with pink polka dots. His own damn fault, and at this point I'm glad his phone got eff'd up. Serves him right.

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.
