Why is the DEV section for the Epic so shi**y?

is it due to not a lot of people having the phone ? inexperienced devs? even the roms that exist have one thing or another that doesnt function properly...there only seems to be one solid rom for sure and the rest are just ehh...just trying to figure this out im coming from a device that had so many roms i didnt know what to do and on this side theres really only 3 or 4 choices. is this a froyo deal?lack of people with the units or what?

My best guess would be most devs are waiting for froyo to drop since it should be soon.

Its tuff to dev something knowing froyo us coming. I started my theme to be used on my rom but decided not to cook a rom. It well be easy to port my theme for use with froyo. A 2.1 rom ported to 2.2 us hard. It would be easier to start from scratch with a froyo build

Its the same thing that happened with the moment, almost no dev support. 1 because its a Samsung, 2 because it was the second 4g phone, 3 because its $50 more.
The Evo community is thriving though.
Look at the Moment forum on sdx-developers, then look at the Hero forum here on XDA. Same thing for the Epic vs Evo.

i was just asking a question...thanks for the answers fellas

I really hope people will develop for Epic, I really enjoyed the ROMs on Evo. But I liked this one better, hope I didn't make a big mistake! Oh well, I haven't even rooted this one yet, maybe Ill just give it a rest for a while. I know my wife will like that. Don't mean to insult the devs, you're all we got, just wish more people had this phone.

I concur, in a perfect world this phone (which I am getting tomorrow) would be so great that I wouldn't flash rom after rom for little things such as percentage battery mod or something. I would flash roms because it looked slightly different than the previous. and always felt like something was missing. I hope i can just be satisfied with the roms and such that are available for the Epic.

Don't worry u will have plenty of devving for epic. It will not be as much as evo though as evo has much more devs and is more popular and has been out longer. But we will have quality not quantity and after froyo we will see more devving. Most devs don't wanna waste time if the update is coming in less than a month (hopefully).

IPhone iOS for htc hd2

can be solved?
Sent from my HTC HD2 using XDA Premium App

Why do u want to downgrade your HD2 to an operating system made for dummies???

iOS is a closed its not like android in the way that the source code is available for the world to see... And iphones are all alike to each other besides suttle changes and has notthing in common with hd2 hardware... So even if the source code was leaked it would be nearly inpossible to correct all the bugs and incompatibilty that would rise and APPLES legal hammer would sue everybody

Guess it's that time again.
Some dude, without searching, asks if we can port iOS, then a some dude will give the very hilarious and completely original joke of "why would you downgrade your HD2 like that..." and be very proud that he has successfully executed humor.
Then someone takes the time to write a legitimate post with a full explanation on why it cannot be done even though the OP will never read it since he never bothered searching in the first place.
Then someone like me points out the worthlessness of the thread and most of the responses in it.
Then a couple more people will argue as to why iOS is better/worse than Android is better/worse than WP7 and the thread either gets closed or finally dies out.
/the end.

Rather than bash, I would suggest looking into the MIUI rom if you like Apple's IOS.

How can you not bash complete and utter [censored]?
If you wanted iPhart, get the iPhart.
Same thing as walking into a Porsche forum and asking if they can put that 3-gear, 5.6 diesel powered engine from your old wifebeater into the 911 Carrera Turbo.
People will still laugh their @$$ off and then tell you to go back to the hole you came from.

God, we get this in the Samsung Galaxy 4g side and now here.
Blunt reply to the OP:
1) No, it can't be done
2) Want an iPhone, get one.
3) Google is your friend. Use it.
4) To the OP: don't ever reply to this thread again lest you be considered a cretin forevermore.

Wheres Zidzhu? Well............

Everybody has been wondering where Z has gone or been well I think I might have an incling where he might be. Well not where but what he is doing. Look at this post by Z:Z's post about MT and Unlocked Bootloader and that my friends is where I think he is. I personally feel the reason he has not been around for a while is because he is trying to get these things sorted for us. Like he said, we would not be able to change codes for the MT unless we have a cracked or unlocked bootloader. Well now we have the unlocked bootloader and he has all of a sudden dissapeared. Don't you think that is a bit unusual of Z to do something like that as the bootloader is unlocked. Well its obvious, he is now doing the things that couldn't be done when the bootloader was locked and I have this really strong feeling he is gunna come back with a grand opening of something like, "Full multi-touch for x10, 100% Legit" Like he likes to say hehe. Just maybe that is what he is doing. I hope I am right.
What do you guys think?

I think you're going to be disappointed

I think your very right.

Z
I have all the respect for your position, but I think that if he wish to tell us what he is doing, he would told us. And if he is doing say, full MT, 16M colors or a brand new 16-Core CPU emulator app, he has all the right doing it privately and surprise us when he wants it!

He forgot his XDA password.

Like everytime when he dissapeared, he is going to surprise us. Do you remember first FreeX10 Froyo ROM? He dissapeared for a month and then he came with working camera fix

Z found MT driver might be 1st step to do it. who knows...Z always come with full of surprise.

So because he asked our thoughts and I don't agree that is not allowed?
I don't think you will ever get multitouch, that's just my opinion.
I don't get mad because others think that it will, so I think conversely I deserve the same respect.

I read somewhere that he's gone for a holiday...
You know, this isn't his job. Just because he hasn't been here for a month doesn't mean he has to be working on something. Sure, if he is, that's great, but don't come here expecting him to release something..that's unfair for him.
All devs have lives out of doing this. They do this in their free time. They're human beings like you and me. You can't expect them to be on this site and make something new every week.

One thing that really annoys me is when people say he has left when no one knows if he has also I think he will come back as he hasnt said goodbye or anything like. He does this all the time. He dont need to give eta so why that mean he has left. Remember last time he was goin to leave he said and because everyone helped him keep up what he enjoys he stayed. He is coming back and if not I hope he is enjoying a nice cold beer relaxing with his other half

If the guy wants to re-appear, he will. No need to open a thread like this. This kind of stuff clutters the forum.
On that note, thread closed.

I already answered this before but I'll say it again, you've got to be kidding me. I've been further even more decided to use even go need to do look more as anyone can. Can you really be far even as decided half as much to use go wish for that? My guess is that when one really been far even as decided once to use even go want, it is then that he has really been far even as decided to use even go want to do look more like. It's just common sense.

... My brain hurts reading this thread.

How is babby formed ?
they need to do way instain mother> who kill thier babbys. becuse these babby cant frigth back? it was on the news this mroing a mother in ar who had kill her three kids . they are taking the three babby back to new york too lady to rest my pary are with the father who lost his chrilden ; i am truley sorry for your lots

I hole-hardedly agree, but allow me to play doubles advocate here for a moment. For all intensive purposes I think you are wrong. In an age where false morals are a diamond dozen, true virtues are a blessing in the skies. We often put our false morality on a petal stool like a bunch of pre-Madonnas, but you all seem to be taking something very valuable for granite. So I ask of you to mustard up all the strength you can because it is a doggy dog world out there. Although there is some merit to what you are saying it seems like you have a huge ship on your shoulder. In your argument you seem to throw everything in but the kids Nsync, and even though you are having a feel day with this I am here to bring you back into reality. I have a sick sense when it comes to these types of things. It is almost spooky, because I cannot turn a blonde eye to these glaring flaws in your rhetoric. I have zero taller ants when it comes to people spouting out hate in the name of moral righteousness. You just need to remember what comes around is all around, and when supply and command fails you will be the first to go.
Make my words, when you get down to brass stacks it doesn't take rocket appliances to get two birds stoned at once. It's clear who makes the pants in this relationship, and sometimes you just have to swallow your prize and accept the facts. You might have to come to this conclusion through denial and error but I swear on my mother's mating name that when you put the petal to the medal you will pass with flying carpets like it’s a peach of cake.

Are you serious?
But who was phone?

Lol ok ill try to get the puppy. The wedding is on the phone to save money anywhere. If the problem is that the information you need to say it clearly and the other hand, and I have be able to do this. It will survive. The first time in my life and death of the most important thing is that the company has been generated for use on a regular basis.

[TW] The Greatest Rom

The Galaxy S3 has many amazing ROMs. However, none are the same.
So in your opinion what is the greatest based off of fatcs.
Please state:
1. The ROM
2. The Kernel
3. The unique tweaks to your ROM
4. Theme(s) included in the ROM (really only need to state color(s)
5. Special features in your ROM
6. Battery life usually squeezed out of the ROM
Time phone on:
Screen time:
7. Anything you think puts your ROM on top.
Thank you for your opinion.

Judging by all the other threads like this that have been locked why would you think yours would be ok?

Well, what ROM is best is only subjective. A ROM that person A think is good might be a ROM that person B hates and so on.
I use stock and have done so since I bought the phone a few weeks ago. Haven't really bothered myself with flashing a custom firmware. The only thing I have flashed, though, is CF-root 6.4.

Waiting for the lock.

@ mods.....no comment....must.....resist.....the....urge!

I think the mods greatly appreciate it, especially reporting racist rants, warez and scammers, best anything threads provoke confrontation .....always....simple as....human nature....and adolescent testosterone!

Closed, no such thing as a "best" rom, "greatest" rom, or anything else, just flash them and find out for yourself.
On a side note, as a mod, I like it when people report stuff, seriously, we miss stuff if people don't report it! And we really appreciate it when people hit that report button! It helps keep the forum clean, it helps everyone.
Don't feel bad, reports are always kept in the strictest confidence, so unless you post saying you have reported, no one will know.
