Okay, seeing as the xda mods don't seem to want to create us a section I thought I'd post this idea. I've been invited(well I asked) by another android forum to move our vogue/kaiser android dev over there. It has some pretty big advantages for us a dev's and makes things easier to keep organized.
So what do you guys think? Yes or No

Hey, whatever it takes to take this project further, i agree.
I mentioned this in the IRC a while back while organization was being discussed. I think it would help be more organized. Links to whereever should be kept in a general thread on here though to maintain support.
I'd much rather keep it on xda, but in its own section of the forum.
I'd rather see it on XDA forums as well, but if that's not an option yet, then heck yeah: move ahoy!
I don't see why we can't branch out but I don't believe we should totally abandon xda. I mean this is where it started.
i would have to say yes...move it to an android board. xda must not be interested in giving you want you want here. even though ive given up on the vogue-android for now because of issues id love to see you guys reach your goals of having a "fully" functional build.
i like xda but i'm all for more organization so i say yes!
sounds good to me for the best of the project
The optimal solution would be a sub-forum here, but it doesn't seem to be something the powers that be are willing to do. I would go for a sub forum on the android forum, with a stickey here to point to it.
I am f-ing pissed right now after numerous emails to the mods on this site with no response at all, I say we move the threads over to the other site for the time being until we get our own subsection.

i know man me too. they just ignore my posts in the request thread
I cannot understand why they would rather lose us rather than create a simple sub-section. Has there been ANY dialogue with the moderators here? This just doesn't make any sense UI
i believe it's because the vogue is not an 'official' android device. but that still doesn't excuse the mods from ignoring requests even if the aren't going to grant them.
k guys, well it looks like we'll move. I'll get the required info to the devs and have the forum setup in the next couple of days and let you all know.
OKEY
Well, as a Vouge Phone User and Android Fan, it would of been nice to see a android "sub-forum" within XDA,But if that does not happen (which is has not) I will follow the Android movement to a diferent forum. ....so..... When/Where do we go?

So is the Vogue Android threads getting combined with the ones at the http://htc-android.com/ forums?
If so, I will contact the people at the Wing.Linux forums to see if they want to combine their development efforts over there as well. Hopefully we will get respotlighted again and get a article on Engadget or Phonearena again.

That's not where I was looking no.. But I'll contact them and see what they're interested in setting up for us..
Cant remember if I voted but I guess I gotta go where the android leads me.

I like having it on xda because the threads get listed in my control panel. With moving it, I have one more site I have to check. But if it REALLY would help move the project further, that's fine.
However, I think that having it here helps people discover the project and support it more. I'll follow you guys wherever you go, but have you considered what you'd be giving up by leaving XDA?
Plus, Android has pretty much taken over the Vogue section anyway, so it's like we created our own section on XDA. I would argue for just leaving it here for that reason. It's not like anything else ground-breaking is going on for these "antiques" we are using (Besides NFSFAN's incredible ROM's, that is, which is only one thread anyway).
[IMHO, to all above statements]
Is anyone administrating this thread on a constant basis? I mean the CDMA thread is sloppy. No stickies for like a month now. [ROM] 08/11 1.1 - CDMA HERO MoDaCo is old news now since the update. We needed these threads stickied:
[GUIDE] How To Root The CDMA Hero (Windows)
[GUIDE] How To Change The MEID/ESN On HTC Hero CDMA
[ROM-DEV] AOSP 2.0 Hero CDMA, help needed | Phone works | 3G data kluge | BT turns on
[Recovery] CDMA Sprint [08-Dec-2009] RA-heroc-v1.5.1
maybe some ROMs too:
[UNOFFICIAL] v1.2c - CDMA HERO MoDaCo Custom ROM 23NOV2009 Market issues fixed!
[ROM] 12/10/09-1.0 | fresh rom | Enough that I'm calling it 1.0!
Anyone else agree?
i agree
it is a little hard finding things here looking through everything
Good call man! I've been wondering why our only sticky is a ROM that isn't even being updated.
they have a hard time spending all thier time moderating the dream forum with all the newb questions in the wrong section and stuff. we get left by the wayside since we kinda mod ourselves and tend to post correctly. but yah we need some stickies due to the were 3 cdma eris root threads and only one is active. also a few dead threads need to be locked.
I wonder how one goes to apply for a Mod position here...lol.
I'm such an xda-junkie I'd gladly moderate the forum including organize stickies and a master thread for links to informative posts.
I'd also like to suggest a development subforum just for the CDMA phones.
Well then we need a couple users that are always in here to mod just our thread or something.
ever since i found this site i havent left lol, best site ever!

This. Keeping the idiots from running roughshod will bring back some talented developers, and attract some new ones. Hell, I re-registered just out of hope.
obelisk gets my vote, for both of his suggestions.
edit -
After browsing the forum here for a few minutes..are you sure you want to volunteer to oversee this steamy pile? You would have your work cut out for you.
This is a great forum, the stickies would be helpful. And if we did that we could have another sticky explaining some terms and things, I've seen them in other forums on the site. I'm thinking mainly for new people so they don't have to be intimidated when reading guide. Include why they need CDMA, what cupcake and eclair are. Explain what it is to flash, what a ROM is, you know general info sticky.
Also we could better handle this.
I don't have a single clue about how to become a mod here.
Regardless of who it is, we need an active moderator.
+1 for a active mod, better stickies, and a sub dev group.
Any XDA mods care to chime in or do you just not care about our CDMA devices. If so ill just wank off mate
Right on WhiteWindows! It would be helpful to have the important/relevant threads stickied. There are old ROMs that keep popping up at the top because of repeat questions. Keeping current topics up front would be greatly appreciated
Obelisk has my vote.
i agreethis thead could use more activity
I posted a thread here requesting the appontment of an active mod for this forum. Post there to show support that we do in fact need an active moderator.
We'll get to checking things out here a bit more often. Things have been pretty busy around here and unfortunately things get a bit skipped over (and they shouldn't).
In an effort to help cut our clutter down, this thread should be used for all general feature requests.
First request:
Use the other forums for non-develop related posts.
Second request:
Aosp ported to the eris.

^^ This ^^
A proper tutorial for changing splash1 - DONE
A proper tutorial for boot animations -- including all the ins and outs of image creation/format, programs that are used, and a more complete description of desc.text and how to use it.
I'm all for helping out on those as well pm if anyone would like to exchange info before creating a nicely formatted thread based how to. I'll prolly drop in to chat at some point when I get time too.
PS: I think we should start putting our how-to threads in the general section to avoid people posting randomness in the development section. Since at that point we should be doing minimal development anyway and development related conversation could still take place in the proper forum. Also this could be put in the general forum once people catch on.
All those in favor say Aye.
somebody please make a better dialer... It is the bane of my existence
aosp
Forgive my ignorance, but what is aosp?
theme development
now that we have root has anyone taken a shot at a skin for eris? maybe port some of the wicked cool stuff they have working on the hero side? tons of notification bars, clocks, rosie scrollers...and so much more...just excited to see where our devices can go.
To the devs, thanks for all your effort. For those who are impatient ect just know these guys n gals have work, school, families ect and all they do for us is on their own time...so that being said be courteous and thankful and most of all patient...development has to well...develope....

AOSP is the Android Open Source Project, which is the latest open version of Android, Codenamed Eclair at this time. Its roughly the same as Android 2.1 release.
My Requests
All HTC Widgets including the new ones from the desire/ legend (Friendstream, RSS Reader, Today in History etc.)
Re-skinned Sense Bottom Bar (Some Hero Roms have a rectangular one rather than the curved one we have)
Speed/ Battery Optimization
speech to text
A larger camcorder resolution would be nice, at least the resolution the phone runs in. Also an overclocked processor.
Could anyone see about Using Dialer One as the default dialer app? Like when you press "PHONE", Dialer One comes up instead? That would be great.
Would anyone make a sticky thread with comparison of the main roms out there? Main features, what's not working, purpose (speed or max features), build on, and so on.
We newbies in rooting field would be very grateful for that.
either make one yourself... or... PM moderator for it.... this aint the place for putting up questions....
I remember coming from the HTC Blackstone forum, they had an excel sheet with all roms and their benchmark results. This is ALOT of work and you have to rely on other users.
Also you want to keep track of what rom does or not?
And also do you want to include different kernels??
Sounds like an ambiguous but an "not done" project to me.
But hey, if you could spare the time, go ahead.
I will even submit benchmark results from the roms i'm using.
First of all, there is one here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=916431. Although, it's lumped in with other info and it needs to be updated, you can ask in that thread to remind the op that it needs updating.
Second: enjoy!

Picked up a desire HD. Decided to get away from the apple ecosystem. So i got rid of my iphone 4 and 3gs. Now i have skyrocket and desire HD. Just saying whats up. i've already rooted both phones and flashed several roms. Looking forward to this community.
Welcome, were mostly friendly round here.
Don't be afraid to ask questions & such, just do a quick search first to be sure you don't come across as a n00b, nobody wants that.

roger that.
Hi
I'm pretty new to this myself - not the phone but to rooting and flashing roms. So far its going great, those devs are really doing a good job, it's really sweet with all this activity going on with ICS. I'm on Virtuous Quattro RC1 myself - a few bugs - but really good
If you're too much into gaming then you might miss your iphone 4 a bit but if you like a variety of softwares and tweaks then android is the way. Your best bet would be to check out the ICS roms laying around...
Welcome btw !

I'm very aware of the reason the development forums require 10 posts to post in, but I can't bring myself to post 10 things on topics that don't interest me (well, 9 with this one). How did you guys deal with this?
Remember you don't need 10 posts to PM the developer of a ROM if you have found a bug. Most users now consider the Development section as the "place" to post anything as it gets a little more traffic. You don't need 10 posts to read or download ROMs.
Unless your actively developing/developed something then there should be no reason to post there.
You should read, search & then ask.
My absolute hate is "Thanks" posts. If I see them I will delete them. They do nothing, but "boost" the post count. If you want to say thanks, hit the "Thanks" button. Or Buy them a beer/coffee/other if they have a donation link. Or send them a PM personally thanking them.
