devs have to have the phone in order to make things for it. I believe 2 people have it so far and are working on it.
The phones been out maybe a month, have patience
There are 4 roms in development thread, OC/UV kernel.... what else do you need?
This belongs in Q&A section, not development.
Yes... We have a oc/uv kernel. several roms. several developers.
Other known developers should be getting their phones soon.

That's where the thread should have ended. I mean, the question was posted in a forum where several threads for ROMs are...same page even, just a couple threads down.
There is soooo much you can learn by taking just 15 mins and browsing the forums for the MT4G.
you
you are developing
What a disrespectful post.

I meant the OP. But yeah, I remember waiting months with other phones just for a simple Android update.
Yes your right there are 4 ROM's to bad they are all mostly the same with a few different tweaks, just look at other phones that devs have completely different types of ROM's....and its not a disrespectful post because all I hear is about great devs working hard on ROM's for other phones yet I don't really hear much about them working on the mt4g, not saying they are not but its nice to hear that someone is working on something....why must you guys ***** about something so simple for no reason....sheeesh
And thanks to those with a simple answer..since that was all that was needed
You are the one making a stupid post. You have a question and then you answer your own question by saying there is no one "paying attention" to it. What other phone that has been out as long as the myTouch 4g has so many "completely different" type of Roms? Most Roms tend to be built off a few main sources with tweaks like you said, the super popular Moto Droid has about 4 of those tops.
Oh my God...listen no one forced you to read this post...get off your damn high horse...this a q&a thread....not a question then ***** about it thread....if you have no answer move on to the next post....the dudes from earlier answered my question perfectly also found out zinx got the mytouch4g thanks to that post...stop being useless or keep it moving..
Also I got high hopes for zinx...dude does wonders

zinx is taking over as the CM retainer for the MT4G since kmobs unfortunately had issues with UPS and such. once a phone has a CM rom, so many others make a CM based rom. So be patient and in due time there will be a slough of roms for this awesome phone
@teamsilence hahaha nice man! way to integrate linux and humor
First thing...dont rape me for posting this here.
As a Vibrant owner for a while now and a loyal follower of all you superior devs here (following Eugene back since we both owned a Behold II), I now have a Dell Streak 7. I got it cause I am about to deploy and I can use it over wifi to video chat with the wife back home. Well.....
There are zero devs over in the Streak 7 forums. It is a badass device with a dual core processor, but it is running 2.2 and it doesnt support itand is clocked at 800. I have mine rooted and clocked at 1000 with the new update of SetCPU. There is no recovery that I can find and CWM does not support it yet. There are zero roms, and I am savvy, but a novice at dev'ing to say the least, not to mention that in the Army about to deploy for a year, I have no time. They are however collecting a bounty together to buy a free Dell Streak 7 for a dev that is willing to work with it. If you could help us Streak owners out, just shoot me a PM on here. It would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you all for all you hard and greatly unappreciated work with the Vibrant!

I'm assuming that he's assuming that he could get more dev's attentions here.
i aint mad at him becuz barely anyone looks in general
I don't know how hiring developers will work out, seeing that if the developers don't like/own the device, it will really become a JOB to them(beside their real jobs) as compared to a hobby. And things COULD get messy when money and expectations are involved. (You know, how much are you gonna pay a developer to justify his/her time spent on working it and how great the ROM has to be for you guys to feel that your money is well-spent?)
Anyway, it's better to go for the more popular devices if you want to run custom ROMs. So you need to do a little research before buying it.
If video calling is your only concern, just buy a front-facing camera for your Vibrant online and install it yourself. It only costs about 30-40 bucks and it's really easy. Look up the video guides online.
Good luck with it.
Some clarification on this...
I posted here because this is where devs hang out.
Im not trying to hire devs...i know how hard they work and most of the time, the most they get is a thanks, but mostly just people telling them how much their kernel or rom sucks, when they know they couldnt make it themselves. It would be much different if it was the manufacturer that released crap, then you could complain because you paid for it. But these guys do it for free with hopes of donations, and I appreciate that.
Now as far as the FFC...i could have done that, however, my wife would have lost her mind with me doing that thinking I would f*ck something up...its hard enough with me flashing roms without her flipping out thinking im gonna brick my phone. Plus she wanted me to have a new toy before I deployed...
Hope that answered some of the questions that you guys had...let me know if you have more.

OP: Thank you for your service. If I had a device, I would be willing to help you out. It's very difficult to dev without hardware though. I don't expect people to buy me stuff though... Good luck getting things going. There just hasn't been a lot of community interest in the streak.
Thanks for the support guys. It really means alot. As for the people posting that have negative comments to post, I aint hating. I already seen that coming. Maybe its just me, but if you aint got nothing nice to say, dont say anything at all. I mean, they really took time out of their busy day to read my entire post, just to be a d#ck?
I already stated that this is not a post about a new mod, rom, or anything remotely dev-ish. You only had to read as far as the subject to get the general gist.
@ttabbal...thanks man, and I figured as much, but I also figured that if I didnt at least ask, then the answer would definately be a no, so I said what the hell and gave this post a shot. Jellette already gave some good feedback in the Streak 7 forum, but he is on the wall about getting one, the same reason I almost didnt get one...the wife has mucho say-so...lol. I also got a couple other devs PM me with input as well.
Anyways, thanks again you all. And I hope to keep the post up and running, in spite of the nagative nancys out there

Nevermind...i was asking devs to help out, not argue. I got better things to do, like train all my Soldiers for this deployment so that they come home safe to their families. Its not just gonna be me deploying. Mothers and Fathers have entrusted me with their children's lives to make sure they come back safe. That is way more reason for me not to pick an internet argument.
Thanks all you supporters....just wish there was a way to get a dev on this at least to get a stable recovery on it. If I had recovery and a stock rom to flash back to, I would start deving myself.
Have a great night all.

Well guys, wish me luck. Im gonna port my new clockwork recovery image for my dell streak 7, as soon as I dump my image from my device since its not supported yet and no one is deving this yet. Im following the instructions koushik dutta left on his website and I am a somewhat advanced linux user, so I think I can get it. And pointers on this, please let me know.
Also, all you devs out there that would assist me, I would appreciate it. If I get this right without bricking my streak, I will be asking gor help on kernel and rom deving. I know none of you have it, but if you have tips and good places for me to read up on, I would appreciate it. People in this post are getting awful mad, so if you want, you can just PM me or post a topic in the dev section of the streak 7 forum, there arent flamers there...yet, and no one is a tattletale.

Enomother was having life issues I have a g2 so I run his rom on it. He said was working on it but life caught up to him. So he says he stay away from android for awhile. Just because we donate to get him a phone doesn't mean he actually has to produce something for us.

A Dev releases a ROM and post in the Dev Section.
Cool!!
Months later, that Dev has upgraded his ROM 2 3, hell 5 times or lkek now, a new GB OTA is out and another new upgrade.
Is it so hard to just start a new thread??
I HATE that the first post is updated, sometimes barely updated, and then the next 90 pages are about the original release from months ago.....
Half the time, the update log is barely legible (ie. Fixed Cam - well, WHEN!!!?? On WHICH release?? Can you provide a god damn date or something??)\, there's now 27 files to d/l, mods, etc.
XDA has the most brilliant DEVs in the world, and the least organized......
No wonder so many noobs are constantly asking what's the best ROM, etc...

I can't disagree with what you're saying.
Contact "svetius" he is the "user experience admin"
HipKat, I typically agree with you but in this case I have to wonder if you didn't od on your "ungrateful pills" this morning.
My unsolicited advice is: Start developing roms, then make a new thread every time you update the roms you develop.
just a suggestion...maybe when a thread is started and commented on the more recent posts would come to the front. in other words opposite of how it is now. oldest on last page and most recent on first page. the original post would stay on the front page though....

I have Dev'd before, on the Moment:
http://forum.sdx-developers.com/index.php?topic=9644.0
Perfect example though, is the awesome work xHausx has done, but looking at his OP now, it's like wtf is what?? And I'm not being ungrateful, not at all. I'm VERY grateful and appreciative of the work done here, but is that a pass for making it harder to follow?? Magnus starts new threads for all his releases, and that makes it easier for the mentally challenged people, like me... King, too, makes the OP solely about the new release and pushes the older releases down in the thread...
Grrr.. it's just been a bad week....
It doesn't even call for a new thread, just clean up the OP a little.
Sorry about the bad week. You will come around.

I am so tired of the "well, why do You start Dev'ing ROMs, then you can ***** all you want" malarkey. and the "if you have a negative criticism about anything at all, you are an ungrateful bastard".
while I don't necessarily agree with the vehemence of the OP, I can relate.
I wish sometimes there was at least a consistent Thread Title format with date updated info at least. (Examples being Myns, aamikams and virus.)
Just look at date the op was last updated then skip to that date in the thread and start reading. That's what I always do, who am I to complain about what someone is doing for free when they could be doing so many other things.

I think the point is this forum is for all and any improvements to the ease of use, especially for newer folks, is always welcome.
That's why I suggested contacting the user experience admin.
The idea that someone doesn't dev so they should have no input is silly.
That's why I wait a while and let a few people test it and talk about what's new and then try it out myself.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA Premium App
I see your point, but I think it should be a decision made by each Dev. Some prefer to keep all release related posts in one thread. This seems more like a thread format issue. Maybe its the ocd part of me, but I read every post before flashing.

Hey if I post enough times they will let me post in the development section. So I end up killing two birds with one stone.
Have to say I'm glad that there is a place like xda for people to share their ideas and work. Otherwise I would probably have upgraded my little hero by now. Still actually enjoy the little phone. When I get tired of it I switch roms and boom got a new phone.
Where I live all we have is 3g so don't really figure it pays to upgrade til sprint figures out what they are doing with their 4g.

Man I remember when this forum was hoppin. I knew nothing of android. Just lurking and reading whatever I could understand. Now.. I develop for it And all thanks to XDA. Almost everything I learned, I learned here. It takes a lot of time reading and searching and understanding.
New users. Feel free to post here if you can't post in the development threads. Just please refrain from "stupid" questions that can easily be answered with a search. Please read the forum rules. I beg of you. They are there for a good reason. Us senior members remember what it was like being new here but it gets old answering the same questions over and over. I will be glad to help or discuss anything here. And please use the Thanks button. I'm a complete whore over it. I'll admit it. But I do return a lot of them too.
Shameless plug time
Try out Team Hydra's Zero Hero Sense 3.5!! It's what Sprint should have left us with!!
just want to pop in and say thank you to all the devs for letting me come in late to the hero life cycle and still use this awesome little phone like its brand new. coming from the xdandroid builds on winmo phones to the vogue with android port and now to the hero, im not giving up on this thing for a long time to come. legacy is not a word to use for this device yet.
Exactly. We aren't technically low-activity IMO. Just quiet users who are afraid to post maybe. I know my reputation is the resident prick here but that's changed. Those of us older members remember what it was like here and why I took that stance. I could look in my history again and find some really good examples of why I was the way I was, and maybe still am. I hear the shooter forums are quite the riot and I've stayed away for a reason.
hey every section needs a resident prick lol, it keeps us all on topic
dont be afraid to be that prick, tell it how it is and things will flow smoother
but what if I'm wrong?
I was a lurker for a while until I finally got the balls to actually root my phone and now I cant get enough of flashing different ROMs.....and making my own Splash screens.
I wish I would have done this a year ago!!!
Only been one here not even a month getting my toes wet. I wish I had time to invest in really learning these systems.
I have got to hand it you all the devs that spend there time this stuff.
I just love how all of our work is basically a slap in Sprint's money grubbing face. See what WE can do with it? Jerks.
