Devs, the universe has come full circle, thank you! - Fascinate General

So,
1. I know, wrong place to post this but if I get banned for thanking the devs, to hell with XDA anyway.
2. I like tech, so I'm reading the WP7 first impressions forum and...apparently Google is IE's default search engine...and it can't be changed! Our Fascinate crew De-Binged so f#*-ing hard that even WP7 felt that ish! Thanks guys...I thought this would bring that "I'm James Dean Cool," feeling to you!

To hell with us for wanting to keep the developers happy and keep development clean for developing? I can't believe you typed that and continued to hit post.
good day.

You're cranky bro. I actually knew you would be the first to post, and with your general, pseudo-parental diatribe. If this post compromises the integrity of this Dev. Forum then allow me to scoff at flame wars concerning where leaks come from. Flame, gas, set match.

guys, there is this little icon in the top right that does a "report post" ...
use it on posts like this that don't belong, our moderator is very responsive in moving things around. I think I'm the only person who uses it.

Moved to general as not development. Reporting posts helps us find and move them folks Triangle at the top right, with an exclamation point in it.

Hey hey hey,
No flame war, just a miscommunication over semantics.
Everyone is entitled to their opinion. Mine just happens to be a bit more educated

Google.is the default and can't be changed? I find it difficult to believe that that was Microsoft's choice. It's most likely a carrier customization. There are no WP7 phones on Verizon until next year, but the way things look now, I can almost guarantee they will have Bing on them, not Google.

OMFGB Rom

Im running the OMFGB Rom that I downloaded through
Rom manager, but I don't know what the real name of the
Rom is and can't find a thread on it in the forums.
Can anyone point me to the roms original thread so I can
Keep up with it. I really like the rom..
OMFGB is the name of the ROM.
It was removed from this site because of issues with the developer doing naughty things (I don't know very many details on it).
In other words, I don't think you'll find much support on it- but worth a try I suppose.
you can find more info for it on the developers new site, google R2doesInc if you want to find it.
Everything those devs do is on this site:
http://t3hh4xx0r.com/
OMFGB here:
http://t3hh4xx0r.com/projects-2
I love OMFGB, but I've recently switched to CM7. You jut can't beat the battery life on it.

I'm neural in the whole episode. Just pointing out that when you post like this you actually make the whole dramatic incident more intriguing to those that are unaware (like me)
a simple cliffs would be much more helpful
He released his rom with wares in it... and was banned shortly after.
Devs you think are perfectly fine will do something that displeases the general public here and will disappear shortly after. From then on all you'll hear are cryptic comments about said dev, which as you said, only piques curiosity.
Not too much unlike a mob movie.
I think the whole things kinda silly. I used to like one developer named IncredibleDoes but one day he vanished and all I've read is how "taboo" and unforgivable his actions were. I actually have no idea what happened to him.
This is a place where users become attached to devs. We like their creations, heck some even donate. Still people will disregard this completely in saying "oh no not this again" when someone is genuinely curious.
Also, I think Smokeey was being sarcastic, ridiculing the very thing I am criticizing here.

He also took myns Rom from the evo, from a beta port by incubus I was told and themed it over to call it his own
At first he gave credit but then he slowly deleted it in his posts, oh and this is where the warez was from too
He did then what he's doing now, finding fixes from other peoples roms and puts them in his Rom
Flame me all u want, I don't trust him or jdk, or even incdoes after what he did

I'm not flaming anybody. In fact that sounds like a terrible thing to do and he probably deserves the animosity displayed here. I'm just saying this community cultivates an environment where people will invest emotionally in a developer. So people shouldn't lash out when someone's curious as to why a once respected person has suddenly disappeared. It would help to have a sticky or something regarding developer "departures".

It means he put others work into his and said it was his and he also put paid market items into his rom.
I just find it so funny that the people that defend him the most all ended up as moderators on his site. I'm honestly tired of the advertising.

Are you saying your a know-it-all?
because it sure sounds like it.
MAYBE, they don't know.
You can decide not to help them, but if i know the solution, i will.
Put yourself in their place.
Yeah I agree that it can get annoying, but this thread isnt going to help. These quirks have been around since the dawn of the internet, and they arent going anywhere soon. The best thing you can do is be polite, tell them in a polite way where their question would get more answers, and help them if you can. They are much more likely to listen if you're friendly and helpful.

Maybe you and the OP should start your own forum for totally excellent and perfect people like yourselves. You can call it Exclusive Wanna Be Developers.
This thread is worse than any noob posting in the wrong place. They do it out of ignorance. You do it out of spite. This is a community of sharing and trading. I myself find great satisfaction in helping others. Noobs posting in the wrong place is proof enough that they need someone's help.

Development Thread is Polluted!

Is it just me or is there WAY too many ROMs now? To be honest, options are always good, but it seems there are so many different ROMs being pushed out and that worries me. It seems the Development thread is getting polluted with all these roms. Most of them seeming useless, at least to me. But what do I know?
Note: Maybe I'm getting tired of waiting for TW
This thread is D.O.A. People complain when there's too little activity in the dev section, but I've never seen anyone complain about too much activity...
Just because TW is your favorite team, doesn't mean they should be the only ones posting roms.
This has got to be the most BS complaint the vibrant forum ever had. Well that's just what I think don't know about what the others will say.

<rant> For god's sake can we please stop with posting threads like this? Its of absolute no benefit to the community. Like stated previously by tgc first people complain the community is dying nwo that its thriving yall want to complain more? If you think something in the dev thread is of no use to you then dont bother with it, choices are good, and i for one am glad that there are new roms being put out there by new devs/dev teams that are giving us more quality stuff to play with.
So once more I implore not only you but everyone to please stop posting these useless threads. </rant>
I for one am a fan of choice. Whether it be aosp, sammy themes or ports. Bring em on. If you like a single choice that's well received, I hear they call it an iphone

I think its dumb. Just my op.

I think its dumb you guys locked the ics thread. Regardless if it was drews actual post or not the whole point of android is do what you want and ics and a port and thread and comments and rants and what not is the whole point of forums like this. Hello nexus s development has not one thing on it about ics. That should seem odd. Maybe I need to fire up my nexus one. How can we progress if u take away the online progress. I understand the guy has his own site and what not but that was are only insight into ics on xda. And we use the only phone that's going to get it first . Stop being online nerds. And let people complain there going to do it anyways. And then its too complicated they way you want it. Every post is not going to to as nice a professional as a cm thread. Let people talk that's how you come to understand not every body is a phone guru. You need conversation as well as knowledge. I'm just sayin. Now when is beta 10 coming who knows but I bet the guy with the random twitter post knows more than I do but we can't share that info now. You guys are missing the whole point. Just sayin. And to anyone who is personally offended sorry excuse the marijuana and red stripe. Helllllllllo laddddddy lol

Help to XDA Dev " task650 " whose FIVE YEARS OLD DAUGHTER WAS DIAGNOSED with CANCER

Help to XDA Dev " task650 " whose FIVE YEARS OLD DAUGHTER WAS DIAGNOSED with CANCER
Here's is his (task650's) announcement :
task650 said:
I've made announcements as to why there hasn't been any updates lately in all of my threads bro. I haven't had the time due to my 5 year old daughter being diagnosed with cancer. We've recently started her treatments. There will be updates coming sometime soon. Every time I think I get a chance I end up having to deal with more important issues lately.

The reason of this post is to raise the awareness among the XDA users about the "task650" situation . I am asking YOU an XDA user or visitor to donate as much money as you can to the "task650. "
His baby girl is diagnosed with cancer and I want YOU to help her to fight this uneasy battle! The medical treatments for her sickness are very expensive and by donating even ONE dollar, YOU will help this five years old girl to win over the cancer! I am not writing this on behalf of "task650, " it is my personal initiative! Being as a member of XDA forums and Android community in general, I feel that it is my responsibility to help the people who are in need as never before.
Here is the link for donations:
Paypal donation email: [email protected]
To "task650": brother, your daughter will get better, especially when there are so many people who are praying for her! Please forgive me for my personal initiative if I offended you by any means!

I begged The_Scotsman for an Off-Topic subforum for the Epic but was told no other device has that and they were not going to start a precedent here. There is one general off-topic thread for Android and that's it. So we are stuck with off-topic posts in General. Shouldn't prevent people from helping out though.

It takes requests to head moderators to have a new forum made. There is a main off-topic forum here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=261
But I don't think you will get the exposure this needs. It is more troublesome when 10 people make new threads on "How to stop OTA notifications" rather than threads like this but that doesn't seem to irritate the same people as a single thread like this does.
Thanks for informing us of this terrible situation. Hopefully XDA as a whole can have a bigger impact on this little girl and her family, than we will ever know!

Don't post them in the first place is the easy answer. Call me crazy but when I come to the Epic General section I expect to read about general epic topics not some vote for me threads, help me with my family issues I created, or donate to me, etc. All the nonsense just drives folks away.
I am sorry, but all I see in this thread is a lot of heartless, selfish assholes.
The subject of the thread CLEARLY indicated that it is not related to your device, so guess what... DON'T OPEN IT. Real simple. Instead you come in here to *****.
I wish the best to task650 and his family.

No kidding! I understand getting frustrated by an off topic post from time to time, but when it is something like this, deal with it. XDA is supposed to be a community. I don't know about you, but in my "communities" we help others when we can. Like the Milkman said, the title was very clear. If the topic is of no interest to you, keep it moving.
Oh don't mind Digiblur, he punches homeless people in the face for asking him for food. The nerve of them interrupting him while he is walking. That is not what he started out walking for.
What the heck is wrong with you people! I bet if it was your son/daughter you'd have NO PROBLEM with this thread being here! Give the dude a break alright he is trying to help this guy, who can clearly use if nothing else some support.... people like y'all is why this country is going down the toilet and it makes me sick... but keep posting its cool... alls your doing is keeping it near the top of the first page, and for that, thanks!

I get where this guy comes from, he has a point. Then again, just like with EVERY other friggin post that the resident forum police go into to talk their crap... if you don't like it, don't fking click it! Don't read it! Most of all, if you have nothing nice to say, don't say anything at all!
Its not hard.
Man That sucks if I had a job I would donate. But for the guy who thinks there needs to be a different spot for this thread then contact the admin of the forum and ask for an entire Subforum for Charities.
