facepalm yourself, there's nothing wrong with asking a specific person a question in a topic. You obviously don't care for the thread and you have nothing to add to it so stop posting in it just to thread crap.

Thanks, I already know how to do that though. This thread was started to ask if kkruse might share with us what he did since it might be useful to incorporate into our own kernels.

Wow... The pot calling the kettle black... You are just as retarded.. You're arguing like a little *****.. Shut your mouth... Leave the guy alone. If you don't like the thread, forget it exists..
It is not yours, nor anyone else's to say anything.. A forum is made to voice any concerns whatsoever that the users feel necessary... For you to reply as aggressively as you did, doesn't make your forum rep jump up, you actually just end up making yourself look like a bigger **** than we all already think you are...
Every time I see one of your posts, I wish you would just leave the community...
Maybe its below your asshole tolerance level, but he has every right to post whatever he wants. Go troll somewhere else.
Now, back to the original topic OP.....

It's 'ESPECIALLY'. There's no X in that word. Also 'relevance' not 'relevence'. I'm certain I'm missing one or two there, but this was just a quick glance. Since you seem to be all over propriety, I suggest learning to spell before criticizing others.
I like these forums, but GOD I'm getting sick of the self proclaimed topic police around here. The guy asked a legitimate question. There was no reason to jump all over him for it.

LUL

this is funny

I am not here to agree with johnson's approach to this thread but I have to agree that this thread should not have been created in such forum. PM's are exactly how you communicate with other members and if after PMing said Member, he received info that he felt relevant to the forum, then he should post it. Just starting a thread to ask someone something like that is just a little much.

Loud noises!!!!

I am just tired of threads like this... then people backing up the justification of it being there.... then people going after the ones that get on the ones that post stupid sh*t like this....
I've been reading xda for a very long time and it just goes on and on and on, but this particular handheld seems to attract a butt load of self richous know nothings... and not noobs.. but know nothings... the retard to technical person ratio is just totally f*cked currently, makes me want to go back to hacking winmo phones or something, at least there the idiots let you know they were idiots up front.
and I don't give a big flying f if I can spell or not.. that is the weakest type of argument ever... you obvioulsy know what I'm saying... so I don't really care if you correct me or leave it be, it makes you sound as pompous as you are suggesting I am is all.
EDIT:
@azyouthinkeyeiz I can be the biggest asshole on the face of the planet if I want... I can care less if you or anyone else likes me or not, a knowledgeable person is a knowledgeable person. My job and/or goal here isn't to make friends, it's to learn and to share knowledge. I can dish out whatever info I see fit however I see fit, you don't like it... tough sh*t

I'm here for the same thing, the sharing and development of knowledge surrounding this phone, and this thread as it was started (don't think the same could be said now) met that end in a direct manner.

i just don't get it?

you know i was just reviewing the tp2 section of xda, the android section i should say. i see they have a port of ubutnu for the phone now. i guess i just don't get as to why you would want it? sorta the same with us hero users wanting to try out debian on our phones? whats the point of it?
if i were a touchpro2 "and i was very briefly" user id want a full port of android like the vogue users had. i mean what zen, dzo & mission were able to do to that dying phone to breath new life into it is outstanding and deserves total respect and applause from all of us.

If I were a Touch Pro 2 owner, and I actually was for a very brief period, I'd want a full port of Android, much like the Vogue users had.

I don't get what you are trying to say....
@ubuntu, the TP2 has a physical keyboard so ubuntu would be much more practical then on the hero.
@android port for TP2, ummmmm who cares about the TP2? I used dzo's android port for a long time and I greatly respect everything that they have accomplished. It truly is amazing.

I agree.

The sole reason I didn't get the TP2 was the fact it was running WinMo.
WinMo has to be the worst phone UI ever, why the heck would anyone want to use a stylus to navigate the UI. Nevermind the fact I've never heard one positive review of Windows Mobile as far as speed was concerned.

sorry i was sick as hell yesterday and still am. thanks mr grammar nazi's!
my point was having a port of ubuntu is stupid IMO, id rather have a fully working android port that could be flashed to nand like the vogue users have. got it now?

I dunno if I had a TP2 and then upgraded to something else but still had my old TP2 laying around. I would most likely put something like ubuntu on it for ****s and giggles.

fixxxer,
wow, you've graduated from useless personal opinion posts to starting whole new useless personal opinion threads. Way to go man, you're really making progress. Congratulations.
I might have a couple ideas as to why someone would attempt to run ubuntu, debian or just about anything else on their phone:
1. just because
2. it's a challenge just to see if you can do it
3. It's fun
4. did I mention "just because"
Just a heads up: your frustration over not having the skills to do these things yourself is showing...muffintop

what crawled up your ass? what just because i posted an opinion about that app you helped create? the point of a message board is to create, help and debate. all i did was give an opinion, there is no reason for you to get all worked up. it's not like i said it was useless.

Actually, man, if you leave out the first and last paragraphs and just read his list, he answered your question perfectly. The fact that you don't get it says s lot. This is, at its base, a community of hackers (or hacker wannabes, like me). Half the reason we do ANYTHING with our phones is because we can. Just for the sheer unadulterated HELL OF IT! Kinda like choosing to do themes the hard way yourself, rather than using metamorph. The fact that some of what we do makes our phones more functional is sometimes almost secondary to the feeling of having got your hands dirty and done something yourself. It is the same thing that drives people to DIY rather than just buying the finished product at the store...even when you might have saved a buck and some time just dropping the cash.

In an attempt to bring this thread back around to topic and stop some of the bickering:
The reasons I see for doing something like installing Debian or Ubuntu on a phone are pretty simple:
1. To see what is possible
2. To find out what your are capable of
3. To find out what the device is capable of
4. To do something that no one else around you has done
In other words, why not?

Sometimes the purpose is the trip not the destination. That's how I feel about hacking our phones, anyway. 90% of the time, I don't really need to be able to access my desktop and take control of it through VNC, but the fact that I can makes me really happy. I don't need to be able to stream HD movies on my phone, but the fact that I will be able to with the evo has me excited. What color flashes on the screen when i tap an app doesn't really make a flying fvck in the long run, but I like the glassy blue, so I rip into every rom I download and change it. To me, that is the why that answers your initial question. To someone for whom the end functionality is the ultimate goal, the this may not make any sense, but to someone else who enjoys the process of creation and tinkering, the opposite might be true. And in a community of devs and hackers, i think you are likely to find as many or more of the latter than the former.

Downgrade 2.1 to 1.29 to Root???

Is it possible? Theunlockr gives a link to download 1.29 but since so many on here are trying to root 2.1 I'm guessing it's not possible.

No. Not possible. Done. Mods close thread.

You can not root 2.1 and the phone will not allow you to downgrade the hboot so you can not go back from 2.1
There is a thread in the dev forum. A couple people are trying to find a work around to either downgrade or just a plain old exploit to gain root. Keep a look out for it.
And another one gone...

I don't think it was the "No. Not possible." part that was the issue, it was the "Done. Mods close thread." part that was a bit rude. It came off that way to me anyways. A simple "Not possible" would have sufficed.

ROM request... <ADMIN: Please DELETE>

I was wondering if someone could make a ROM for me... I know that it's kind of unreasonable to ask a chef that already devotes alot of their free time to make a special ROM but I figure'd, what the hey?
I like the Plain Jane sense ROM that Jcase made but I was wondering if someone could take that ROM and run with it a little more like fixing the TWS 50% bug, removing the bloatware, improving battery life ( if possible),adding apps2sd and JIT. This is assuming that it can be done. Don't worry, my feelings won't be hurt if there aren't any takers. Thanks!

Word of advice. You want something, learn it. TWS is a joke. No battery difference. Dont care what anyone says. Removing bloatware can be done via either adb or root explorer. Sounds like you dont want to learn, so invest a few bucks and buy root explorer. You can access system files and remove them that way. Improving battery life is by changing OC options.
Dont mean to sound like a **** but you are asking for stuff that is already out there or can be done by you by either running a flash able update or by adb. Google is your friend.

Re: ROM request...
First of all tws is not a joke because. If it was a joke, developers wouldn't be talking about fixes for it. Second, are you a dev? Or are you just having fun throwing around your little bit of knowledge for everyone else here to ooh and aw over and say "oh kevlar is soo smart!" Im looking for feedback from an established developer.... I. E. Not you. Thanks.

I may be no special dev, but I can honestly say Kevlar is 100% correct. The tools are on this forum and devs can't take out the time to make special roms for each person. All I do is port roms for the community and that's even a hassle, o do everyone a favor and reaed up a little bit. It will do you some good.

+1 on that. Especially the porting being a pain in the ass thing.
Not so sure about TWS though, as when I fix it I DO see battery life improvements. And it's with OC off. But I'm no dev either so I could be wrong.

lol you are seriously asking for people to make you a ROM?? for free. I just have one question. What makes you think you're so special...

I find it hilarious that even when I have a request that is stated in the most polite, non-begging, completely understanding and respectful way of the ones who would actually be able and capable of helping me out, the trolls of XDA STILL have nothing better to do than flame me. This was a very simple question AND I even stated that I understand the time constraints of the developers. Also, being that I have flashed just about every ROM for the Eris there is right now, I don't really have a problem reading and researching...I have a problem with developing (you know, the whole reason for my question in the first place). So I'd like to thank you guys so much for really making a mountain out of a mole hill here. ADMIN: Could someone please delete this topic? The children can't seem to play nice.

Maybe you should wait till Christmas and ask someone to make you one.
Or maybe offer some money, people might be more inclined to make 1 ROM for 1 person.

I find it hilarious that even when I have a request that is stated in the most polite, non-begging, completely understanding and respectful way of the ones who would actually be able and capable of helping me out, the trolls of XDA STILL have nothing better to do than flame me.

semmtexx don't call me a troll. I asked you one simple question. I never stooped down to your level to name calling. I asked you to answer a very simple question. AND I'd still like to know it. You should live by a golden rule. IF you want something done right DO IT YOURSELF. Now, back to my question. Why DO YOU, think you're so special, that someone is going to take time out of their life, to build YOU a ROM, for FREE, to a STRANGER. Sorry but I don't think I'm the troll here.
PS, ONE last thing, and what exactly are you getting so upset about. You open a thread, people respond, you don't like the way they respond now you ask the ADMINs to WASTE their time cleaning up crap that shouldn't have ever been made. do us all a favor, and read before you write.

semmtexx said:
I was wondering if someone could make a ROM for me... I know that it's kind of unreasonable to ask a chef that already devotes alot of their free time to make a special ROM but I figure'd, what the hey?
I like the Plain Jane sense ROM that Jcase made but I was wondering if someone could take that ROM and run with it a little more like fixing the TWS 50% bug, removing the bloatware, improving battery life ( if possible),adding apps2sd and JIT. This is assuming that it can be done. Don't worry, my feelings won't be hurt if there aren't any takers. Thanks!

check out xtrROM. not custome taylored but sounds like it has "most" of what you are looking for...
TWS is only about half fixed and I have yet to add apps2sd however there is a bit more room on the phone after all the boatware has been removed.

Ah.. Thanks for the constructive input, zach.xtr. I must admit, I flashed your latest (well not the Vboost quite yet) this morning and the battery life seems damn good even with OC. I can see myself sticking with yours for a while. I actually had 2 PM's today from two developers wondering if I'd like them to work on a ROM for me.... for a price of course. I really don't know why Blazed One thinks that I am assuming that I am "special" and would like a ROM for free. I really didn't state either of those things nor would I. Oh and Blazed One, I'll be sure to let you know how my custom ROM turns out. I may even give you the name of the developer that I end up going with, if you are nice. Thanks again zach.xtr for you hard work. This latest is really great.

Well this was an interesting read.

Thanks again to all devs for the hard work they are doing for us

Development thread and Q&A/General threads always end up the same... you know.. because people in dev section just noob it.
So...
Let's give some estimates?
I say I ll have ICS running in no more than 34 hours.

If wiping it doesn't work,paint it blue(Will match the ICS theme too) and throw it in the sea.It's effective.You'll never have problems with that phone again.

It's a good thing that noobull****(You know,noobs' bull**** ) tend to be seperated from development thread.They just tend to though.When the day comes that XDA forums will be divided in noob and developer forums and noobs stick to their rightful place,then XDA will be a better place.Ahh Utopia...
To avoid misunderstandings:
I don't call anyone who isn't a developer a noob.If I did,I'd be calling 90% of XDA's users,including me and people much better than me,noobs.Noobs are those typical idiots with that strange sense of entitlement to other,more skilled people's work,while they don't contribute to anything.Although I'm pretty sure most of you know what I mean...

You either speek Greek for some reason,or we Greeks are much more common than I thought.
Anyway,yes,we've all acted noobish at times,but there are two types of noobs as I have said elsewhere:
i)The "I want to learn" noob,who is the good noob and the one to be deprived of his noobishness quickly and once and for all.
ii)The "I'm an ass and think I deserve it all" noob,who is that typical idiot that asks the same question that was answered two posts above his.Number (ii) is the plague of every tech forum,not only XDA.
Being a noob isn't bad by itself.The problem is which noob type you choose to be.

Rant... ish.
I don't think it's just forums where you find this issue. The world seems to be full of people these days who seem to think that the entire planet owes them something although they have probably not done a days honest work in their entire pathetic existence.
Rather off-topic wouldn't you say

Always happy to see that there is "just-one-more" of us.
Anyway,I don't have the XDA bug at such a degree,but I do have some bad ORD(Obsessive Rom-flashing Disorder).Blood examination didn't show anything.I'll try acupuncture.
