Baked Snack...No Sound? HELP! - Epic 4G General

Is anyone having this same problem? I can make calls, and turn on the speaker phone but if I try to play a game or listen to music the device does not output sound. The only way it will is if I put on headphone or as I said try to make a call. After making a call and using speakerphone I am able to resolve the sound issues but it returns after a while.
Help!!
Note: I would have posted this is the Baked Snack thread but it is currently closed.

you also should have noticed that he's been banned for not releaseing his GPL sources or following the rules, as such, feel free to use google and get support there, because XDA is not the place for support for this rom.

Definitely the best Epic ROM I've used so far. Fantastic battery life. I was using his ROM on the Evo also.
You can try his website...

Guess I'll be going there from now on for updates.

Non-compliance with the GPL isn't something to screw around with. Getting the FSF involved over a GPL compliance violation ruins it for everyone because they aren't in the business of screwing around. They'll take legal action.
So yeah, he obviously makes some quality roms, but in that process, he's ruining things for everyone else. XDA is very familiar with GPL violations as they've had to deal with them before and as sad as it may be, they are doing the right thing. Otherwise, they get mixed up in the legal mess caused by the violator.

I've seen all the argue over the GPL agreement and such, but isn't he technically not really refusing the GPL. Simply just not giving what he has done with it. I don't see that as any real world violation.
That's like making air better and charging for it.. You have your water do what you want with it .. don't take his away.
Besides, why would you want to cast out someone for having something you want. That is so communism if I have ever heard it.
Sorry if I offend anyone, but out of all the rom's I had never tried anything baked snack until all the talk about him getting banned started circling around.
I couldn't possibly of imagined why you would of banned him after running his rom and kernal for 1 day and seeing that my battery has lasted longer than any other rom I have ran.
If anything I think as small as this Epic community is we should be begging him to come back and join in as a whole.. I mean common we have like 3 or 4 real roms to choose from.
I seriously implore some reconsideration on behalf of the Epic 4g owners and developers to put their heads together instead of competing for having the faster this, or longer lasting that, and try to make something that we all wanted this phone to really be. I haven't went over 13 hours on any other rom with 1 hour talk time or more before a dead battery. This guy is doing something others just aren't.
As it stands I am at 43% after a 13 hr 43 min day unplugged with these as the culprits
Voice calls: 70% - 1 hr 6m
Display: 14% - 51m
Cell Standby: 9% - Time on 13 hr 43min timewithoutsignal 0%
Phone idle: 7% - Time on 12hr 55m
Bluetooth: 3% - Time on 9hr 42m
And I am gonna let it sit overnight tonight, of course as im typing im getting another phone call, but whatever.....
Ok anyways, I was struggling to get through a 13 hour day before, but now I feel as if I slid right through it without any problems.
Even if this doesn't sway any decisions I would like this to show as my public appreciation for his work for using his baked 1.6 xtreme kernel

Thats the same tired arguement as letting hollywood starlets and attention whores not serve jail time cuz "they make movies we enjoy"
rules are rules they're there for a reason, how would you like the community if NOTHING was posted open source and you had to buy every rom or app or theme that was made and psoted here because "hey i made it why should i give it free"
seriously, i think demotivation said it best.

This rom wasn't that great to begin with. I've used it, got the same battery life as always, the same performance.

Whether he talked about charging for it or not. You can still ultimately download it for free from his site.
Instead of demanding something of someone there could of been a bit more of an open door agreement I must say though. I might have gotten defensive myself if the problem did arise.
I wouldn't waste my time on this guy if I didn't feel like he wasn't a loss to development. You guys fail to see that we do not have hardly anyone here. After seeing stuff like this it's no wonder people troll over from the evo forums just to tell us how crappy our development is coming and to come switch to an evo.
Im not by any means saying what you guys say he done was wrong. I just had my own way and opinion of it to compare it to. I simply ask you to try the thing for yourself and see what's up.
Furthermore, I'd like to thank those that do help do any kind of development for this phone.

Yeah but thats NOT what GPL is.
GPL allows you to take any source and modify it as you see fit. If someone requests source you're obliged to give it to them(which is what happened, someone asked for source and Hero had a kitten). If you decline to give source you are no longer covered by GPL and can ONLY use it in house without distributing to anyone outside of there. Or making profit from it.
plain and simple.
as I've said before...
The remaining devs doing the kernels and roms share thier work, they post for others to use an integrate, it goes both ways, you can't come to the forum steal the work from others(no matter how trifle) add your own work and then claim it's mine you cant have it but i'd still like to distribute it.

I am not being ignorant..
Me being ignorant would of been me not expressing my opinion, but instead claiming that I know what I am talking about spouting everything off the top of by head claiming it as facts.
As I stated earlier these are only my opinions. I never came across as ignorant. I only aimed to be informative about my personal opinions.
I do appreciate the links as I will read them.

There is no reason you can't ask or help in any regard to your epic, I would advise posting it in the Q&A section.
Start with the basics, and move up...reboot, if that doesntwork, start with the wiping. Dalvic and cache, and if that doesn't work...you may have no choice but to wipe eveything and try a fresh flash. If THAT doesn't work, give odin a call. If THAT doesn't work, id assume it was a hw issue.
Sorry for hijacking the thread and all

I love his rom and ultimate kernel. No other rom here can match the battery life. I have been told by cookers and helps of syndicate rom that my phone is a black sheep. If that is the case, why on this one rom I can get awesome battery life with similar usage and setup. I would even try to underclock the same with all roms and get much better results of 15+ hrs phone time.

The reason why we are called liars is cause we are the ones that actually use it.
It is a natural human instinct it seems to cast out or kill what isn't known before finding out what it is.
I have tried every single 2.1 rom that was made available here for the epic publicly. I've even flashed back to stock with odin each individual time as to make sure I was giving each one a fighting chance.
I still don't see what the ops problem is with sound, but I would try going cleanly back to stock with odin first and foremost then get clockwork rolling and rom flashing all over again.

Enough already!

Call this a rant or whatever you want, but I need to get this off my chest cuz its starting to make me sick. There is WAY too much frickin complaining going on in this forum. I can't speak for other forums cuz most of my time is spent here. The developers here don't have any obligation to share their work with us. They do it voluntarily and for free. Do you really think *****ing is gonna accomplish anything? Do you think developers appreciate that? I know the developers here are too smart to be influenced by ungrateful users, but its still ridiculous to see. If you don't like the way the developers handle their work, run the Froyo OTA and be done with it. See how well a massive corporation's work stacks up. This community cares more about what these phones can do for us than Sprint and HTC combined. Think about that the next time you feel like lodging a complaint. Not trying to start anything but I feel this needs to be said.

You're right about one thing, I was angry. However, this wasn't a rant about people asking for a Froyo root, not sure where you got that from. It was about people who show no appreciation for the ones doing all the work here. I wasn't just complaining about complaining. I was complaining about people that expect everything to be handed to them and then whine when things don't go their way. Getting this off my chest was all. I feel like I have a right to do that.

Not being rude or anything like that, but have you stepped outside into the real world lately. Complaining isnt limited to this forum and phones in general. It is done everywhere, you hear it at work, at school, at home, you name it people are there complaining, you just have to take it in stride and not lose your cool.
This thread is hilarious. This is a cell phone forum. I could care less about what people do on here. I go online to learn things I don't know about and have fun. If you are tired of reading about people don't open the thread. Pretty simple.

You need a SBC kernel
Sent from my HTC Evo running CM7
It happens because the battery reaches "full" between 90-95%. A full charge over time damages the battery; but that is why they have the sbc kernel for if you want to hold the extra charge.

I feel it's the best in terms of stability, battery life, and performance. There are many variations of this kernel that can be found here:

But instead, people decide they would rather troll someone away from XDA and therefore earn it the rep of "unhelpful troll site." These noobs could be the future of devving for all we know, I guarantee there was a time when Myn, Mik, Toast and the like were all beginners. Hell, I've learned so much in the past 6 months from the helpful people on this site that its incredible. Be friendly, be polite and you will see XDA continue to grow and prosper as the #1 mobile development community around.
Well said. Don't like the thread? Don't post and let it slip further down. Especially to the douchebag who asked for people asking this question to be banned. You can either post something useful, or not post anything at all.

Haha, is a simple "Are you using an SBC kernel?" too much to handle, how hard is it to answer a question, politely tell him to "please post in the right section next time" and then let the post slip off the front page.

The fact that he has left the thread is evidence that he found his answer somewhere else, most likely the forums search function. Something he should have done before posting a new thread about a topic that has been discussed numerous times.
I'm pretty sure these noobs are not going to be influencial in the devving community as doing a search before asking a question is pretty much innate with anyone that has the mental capacity to handle such a profession/hobby.

Sorry for not being as gifted as you.
sorry about your bad experience bro, dont worry it happens. about it, the battery drop is very common, its a safety stop built into the batteries, they stop charging when they reach 95% to prevent damage, your phone says 100 but really is only 95, sometimes using an sbc kernel(aka trickle charge) solves that problem by pushing little bursts until your battery reaches a true 100% also look too see if you have mobile data always on, in network settings. and next time try the search button and type your problem there.it will show you any threads were similar problems have been discussed, i wouldn't worry to much about that initial drop if it only happens then not thru out the whole day drainnig your battery, you'll be alright, good luck

Ready to Finally get out of here...

First off, let me say that the XDA site has been a godsend. I've learned more about my phone's capabilities in the last few months than I could have ever expected.
Having said that, the Epic 4G community is seriously lacking. I've rooted and custom rom'ed a few friends' phones recently, an Evo, an Incredible, a droid eris, and a Droid X. It was shocking to me to enter their forums and see all the wealth of information and plethora of choices. CM7, MIUI, roms galore. Then I come back to our forum... and... yeah. I appreciate all that the dev's have done for our phone. I can't even remember how much my phone has improved over stock, but I think it's crazy how undersupported our phone really is. It's got all the potential in the world, but the comparably weaker Evo is getting all the love from sprint customers.
That's why I pre-ordered the Evo 3d from best buy recently. As much as I love the screen on the samsung and would love to have the SGS2, I just can't risk getting stuck with a phone that has little to no support again. It's a shame. Best of luck to those of you who stick with this phone. Hopefully the trend of established developers leaving slows down because it's been very disheartening to see our already meager dev crowd dropping like flies.
On to bigger and better things but still thankful for all the support for the past few months. Take care.

I wasn't trying to disrespect the community. In fact, I went out of my way to say thank you. Anyhow, the reason I posted this is because I have a strong feeling that there are plenty others on this forum (whether they are lurkers in the dark or randoms that post one-liners just to bulk up their post count, or even the dev's themselves) who feel similarly. Our phone had all the potential in the word. But, between Samsung's ineptitude and our comparatively small dev community, this phone never came anywhere close to its potential. It's sad that my girl's banged up antique droid eris can flawlessly run the latest CM7, yet my phone shi*ts a brick if I try to load netflix.
again, no disrespect. for those of you that stick with samsung, I hope the SGS2 gets better support. It certainly looks like a phone for the ages.

just because someone does not post does not mean they have not been here, they may do what most do not , is read and search.
but also I did notice that he joined fairly recent so to be honest I don't think you gave this community much of a chance. it sounded like you really didn't want the phone in the first place.

With all your contributions to development and support, you'll be sorely missed. Before you went on your useless, selfish rant, did you consider you could have learned to develop or help support or developers? You were party of the community that it sounds like you put nothing into. You justifiably got the same from it. I hope you learn this before you go stink up another community.
These threads are useless and make me like our community more and welcome those who don't want to add anything to leave quietly. We don't care how much you butt hurt over the EVO.

Good post, OP, at least compared to the usual level of intelligence here. Case in point: "Oh no, my leg is asleep" for 10 pages is perfectly fine, but your post apparently isn't.
I, for one, agree with the sentiment. I'm usually an early adopter, but I'll be waiting to see which phones get large community support before I buy my next device. Lesson learned, here.

I have to admit, this made me laugh too.
Having said that, there are two things I didn't do for this forum.
1.) I didn't develop or theme, wish I could have, but it's going to be a long learning process.
2.) I didn't post every time I coughed, sneezed, burped, pooped, or grabbed a bite to eat. I didn't think it was necessary.
But I did do the following:
1.) Visited this forum and other XDA forums very regularly, which is how the site makes its money. Sponsors don't pay for post counts, they pay for page hits. There are likely exponentially more visitors than posters.
2.) Donated. For those dev's whose Rom's I used, and themers whose themes I enjoyed, I donated money. And, I'm pretty sure that's a large incentive for why they do what they do, as Noobnl so eloquently displayed.
3.) Referred, literally dozens and dozens of people to this website, which adds visitors, page hits, and sponsor money.
So, you're right. I never developed a ROM that you could use. But, until now, I also didn't waste bandwidth with nonsense or ETA queries. Once again, I didn't start this post as a swan song or with the hope of warm condolences; I was just curious to see if there were others who felt the same way.
Thanks for the laugh anyhow.

I am having a hard time justifying this comment. My friends want me to search for roms on their phonesand when I look I find a ton of pretty much the same roms written by different people. Can someone who had done this on other phones explain what the bonus to having 40 roms with 1 feature current versus having 5 stable, working roms that can have features added. I'm not sure went over-saturating the dev section is considered better support. Was the EVO so bad off that it need 40 roms?

It must be the heat....

What is going on with xda nowadays? I don't know the story but it seems like the devs are fighting amongst each other and half of the comments being posted are negative. For God's sake people, this is still the greatest site for people to find fixes modifications for our phones but I for one think twice now before I post a question or comment on here because I don't want to deal with the trolling or flaming that may come from it. I have gotten a lot of help for my evo from some of the great members here and just don't want any newcomers to be put off after reading a few post. I think we should all just chalk it up to the heat and try to stay positive and helpful. With that said, it is only my two cents. Now its time to go to work in a steel warehouse in 101 degree weather. BOO!

I actually agree with this, everyone needs to take a step back and look at the bigger picture. I actually think it would be a good thing to have XDA down for a couple days, so people would be really grateful for when it came back!!!
The reason is that XDA has become so "famous" that people who have no business working on their phones themselves are all over this thing. I do rooting and rom service here for hire and almost all of the people who come to me started out on XDA - most of those ended up with issues they couldn't resolve, the others were smart enough to realize they were in over their heads. Point being, all those kids who troll and flame the forums elsewhere are now here. That's my take anyway.
XDA needs stricter forum policies and suspend accounts of users who post such negative comments that they offend other users and provoke such behavior from others. People need to learn to have respect for others and also hold their tongues. Some people can't resist the urge to "put others in their place" so-to-speak and that's totally unnecessary. Thos who make such comments should be given only ONE warning then account suspension. Once people see that XDA has no tollerance for that kind of behavior, people will think twice before being so hateful to others in the forums. That will solve it.

Agreed. I think there is a lot of new people here who just don't understand what these devs do. They act like they deserve something for flashing these devs' rom. These guys put in a ton of work and some people act like they should get paid to run it on their phone. It's a shame really.

I have to agree with this statement . I even tried to help resolve a problem one member was having in one thread and I was more or less blasted with some off the wall comment regarding windows on a computer . I sat there and thought about responding but didnt . I only knew it would cause it to continue further so I let it be . So yes I agree with most of what is being said in this thread . Granted I'm not a dev and have alittle theming ability but I try to help someone when I see them in trouble and they are trying to understand . Only since I was in their place at one time and was totally clueless . Yes its easy to scream go read , but sometimes doing the actual process itself is what teaches an individual . The devs on here do awesome work , all have their strengths and all have their different takes on a Rom and how it should work . In lack of better terms its their creations , they are allowed to take as long as they feel they should for it to be up to their standards or expectations . Not the individual flashing the rom . I swear I laugh everytime I hear "Whats the eta on release?" Um this isnt HTC and this isnt Sprint . You want a release date ask sprint or HTC when they gonna offer software upgrades .

i agree. i barely post because of this
This place is actually a wealth of knowledge but it is easier to find what you want other places 9 out of 10 times just due to trolls and flamers. There will be a 50 + post thread and only 5 decent posts in the entire thread because the rest of the posts are trolls or hot linked picture to flame some one.
No one wants to wade through that garbage to find an answer so they look elsewhere.
I generally find what I want and help myself to avoid the issues that a lot of members here cause. Do away with the issues, trolls, BS and this site could be the one stop shop for hand held devices. But until then there will be mainly people registering just to gain access to a download or link.
Just my 2cents.
I am not sure what is so hard about reading though. The hero is my first phone that I even thought about modding. I got it in march of last year, opened my account here in June and if you notice, I only have 30 or 40 posts total (I think the first one wasn't until about 4 months ago). For the most part this was because any time I had a question, I just used the search function. If an xda search doesn't answer my question, and a google search doesn't answer my question, THEN I ask. I am sure that most of those here who hold the knowledge would agree that they don't have a problem with the lack of knowledge, but the lack of resourcefulness.
Trust me, i am just a peon when it comes to this stuff, I don't know much. I only wish I had the time it would take to become an expert on building apps and roms, etc. but I don't. However, even I get annoyed when I am searching for an answer in a thread and the same question is asked (and answered) 4 times in the span of 2 pages.
I agree that those responding could use a little more tact sometimes... However, plainly asking someone to read for themselves is not rude, it is teaching reliance on oneself. If more people were a little more self reliant I am sure that this place would be far more efficient (and welcoming).
I, for one, thank the dev community for keeping my Hero running, I don't have an upgrade until January so it will have to do for a while longer.
Edit: I feel a little embarassed, I am in here because my wife as an Evo and obviously I would be the one to support it... Anyway, if y'all are wondering why some Hero owning, absent-minded poster is in here acting all righteous, that would be the reason, I forgot I wasn't in the Hero forums. I still believe my post to be valid, but you may take it as you want.
They should have a dislike button and members who had only had their account for six months are able to have their comments disappear with a set number of dislikes and those who had it longer cannot have their comments blocked, my 3 cents
I remember when this all happened 3 years ago in the touch and diamond forums between a chef's I'll leave nameless...It ended with a damn good chef getting banned. All that started over a program that was written and another chef tweaked the "hell" out of it making it a success, but creating a world of controversial bickering...It follows all forums once they begin to blow up as The Evo did!
I just get annoyed with seeing threads in the Dev section get overtaken with pages of 'arguments' or the like. Or complaints about devs and money or whatever trendy bull**** is happening. That's all. I'm of the type that feels the need to read more pages than not in a thread, so when I sit through 5 pages of total sh!t I almost want to slam my head through the monitor.
In terms of the General and Questions section, people posting pictures and the like are harmless, in my opinion. Most threads asking questions in the Gen / Q&A get by with little to no issue. Sometimes a thread deserves to get derailed.

Couldn't agree more. People are just too lazy to search. If the XDA search option does not work, use the damn Google option. It always works.

I do agree, though. And complaining about it over and over, as we see happen, won't change it. I do agree that it gets tiresome seeing it in the 'important' threads though. But talking about it really doesn't change much.

Another ICS rom? Oh joy....

It seems that every week another ics rom pops up on the forum pages...but guess what? It has the same exact problems as any other fancy schmancy named rom.. no 4g, no ffc, no video camera, and most importantly no netflix...
congratulations...
Oh and now most of the really good devs have joined forces and formed a TEAM (who's forum is terrible by the way, abusive mods makes for a horrible site imo) and what do u know a whole slew of new ics roms appears with the same problems :-(
I know its too much to ask for these guys to actually collab together and fix one ics rom to get everything working like a gb...too many egos... I'll just stay on swipes gb for now until one of the geniuses has a breakthrough..anywho :fingers-crossed:

No sir I am not mad at all, just a little disappointed that a complete rom hasnt surfaced yet, that was the point of my rant. I dont claim to possess the know how to build a rom, fix it or offer any assistance to a dev other than test out their work.
That being said, if I was a developer, I sure as hell wouldnt keep putting out the same broken rom with a few new tricks and a different fancy name. I more than likely would try to figure out how to iron out the snags.
Excuse me for having an opinion, isnt that the whole point of a forum? Now do me a little favor and put on your big girl panties and stop whining...in the meantime I'm going to go try out "Saladbar"

That being said, if I was a developer, I sure as hell wouldnt keep putting out the same broken rom with a few new tricks and a different fancy name. I more than likely would try to figure out how to iron out the snags.
Excuse me for having an opinion, isnt that the whole point of a forum? Now do me a little favor and put on your big girl panties and stop whining...in the meantime I'm going to go try out "Saladbar"

If I was a developer I would do this........HAHAHAHA...COME ON DUDE, you can't even read the OP let alone try to fix anything!
The fact that you admit that you don't try to help the developers with anything proves my point that you're as ungrateful as they come! You download ROMs for free then turn around and bash the same people that give you these ROMs..........you know, the ones with a few tricks
Whenever you get ready to help out and actually provide something useful, PM me until SHUT YOUR TRAP buddy!

It seems that every week another ics rom pops up on the forum pages...but guess what? It has the same exact problems as any other fancy schmancy named rom.. no 4g, no ffc, no video camera, and most importantly no netflix...
congratulations...
Oh and now most of the really good devs have joined forces and formed a TEAM (who's forum is terrible by the way, abusive mods makes for a horrible site imo) and what do u know a whole slew of new ics roms appears with the same problems :-(
I know its too much to ask for these guys to actually collab together and fix one ics rom to get everything working like a gb...too many egos... I'll just stay on swipes gb for now until one of the geniuses has a breakthrough..anywho :fingers-crossed:

How about YOU put you "little girl" panties on and DO something about it? You seriously are going to voice this worthless dribble like anyone gives two rats ass'? Sounds like the only thing you may have been good at is running your mouth, maybe you should go check out the ios forums, they have a whole line of stuff for people JUST LIKE YOU.

hey mr. sWIPEtheRAT's rearend check this out: you say that all of these ICS roms have the same issues. you obviously know this since the OP's clearly state so and yet you STILL download and install the roms only to complain about said problems. you in your own words show yourself to be more ignorant than i could ever portray you to be...and i could portray you to look pretty stupid. i will leave that for your mirror to decide. now make sure you go back to sWIPEtheRAT and link your comments and show those guys at miuiandroid (all 3 of them) how tough you are and that you stood up to the forces of evil.
way to go, i knew you could do it. clown.

I'm assuming you read every OP before flash anything. So when you finish the OP instructions and what works and what do NOT work, then you decide to flash it knowing all that stuff you are pointing off (ffc, vidcam, 4G and netflix) are not working.
You made the right decision, went back to the RON you like.
You should port solutions instead of talk crap about the people that you don't know and they don't know you either and made this ROMs for free for you and every user here on xda.
Did I strike a nerve? You seem a little tense...I apologize. I didn't mean to offend or bash any dev, if anything I'm speaking on Ice cream sandwich as an os. I'm sure you put your heart and soul into every single rom you work on...for free...and for no "thanks" how dare me to assume it should work properly. Thank you for helping me see the light. You sit there on your pedestal, I'll just keep wishing.....
By the way I won't be PMing you ever, because I get paid to "help out" and if the folks around you can't provide you something useful, then I highly doubt I'll be able to...TRAPS STILL OPEN!
Another ungrateful user? Oh joy.....
What a little ass.
First of all, like mazda said, if you want a fully developed rom then why don't you take a stab at fixing some of the issues with ICS for the Evo. Odds are if the CM team has not fixed them yet, they are a bigger problem then just a simple xml, jar or other edit.
Secondly if Netflix is SOOOOO important to your daily existence then I suggest you get a rom that supports it. Or even get a phone that ICS has been released on. Or at the very least chuck up the couple of bucks and get BootManager.
Thirdly, like you said your not a developer. So stop trying to give a developer/dev team advice on what they should do with their roms. Do you give you advice on how to set every setting? No, so please step back into your place as a flasher or move along.
Fourthly, Terrible forum? How many forums do you run? How many moderately(due to newness) successful website have you built, coded and maintained?
Abusive mods? Someones a little butt hurt that he got a post or 2 deleted that weren't quality posts. More than likely all you were doing was trying to get to the bare minimum posts to get to the Development section, so you could freeload over there as well. You want to talk about abusive mods? Well then, xda is what you should call home...
And lastly, There is a reason for developing many ICS roms. Its called having a choice. And by the way if it weren't for this TEAM that you talk down about and the roms that they happen to work so tirelessly on, how many roms would still be as actively developed? Not that many. So excuse this TEAM for giving YOU the option, choices, and hell even a fighting change for the EOL Evo.
edit: Just as I suspected. Member since Sept 2010 with 34 posts and 7 thanks. You sir are a joke, now its really time for you to move along.

HAHAHAHAHAHA...I BET YOU KEEP THAT TRAP OF YOURS OPEN ALL NIGHT LONG HUH?
If you're mad NOW, you ain't seen NOTHING yet!! I've got 3 ROMs that I'm just sitting on!! If you're mad that Team D.I.R.T is putting out a ROM weekly on average then you ain't see NOTHING yet! If you want to bash me and Team D.I.R.T because your loser dev threw a hissy fit and left XDA or got banned or whatever and NOW you got to defend his honor to feel good about yourself and maybe get some brownie points along the way then go ahead BUT remember that at the end of the day....you're still a sorry POS idiot that has done NOTHING for this community but download and complain!
I could care less for a fancy title or how many followers I got because I don't lie when I say I do this for joy! Do you think when I go apply for a job that I tell employers "HEY BTW, I got 6 ROMs on XDA and I've got over 2K thanks".....NOBODY DOES THAT ****! Do you think that with the donations that these devs get that they can buy a gallon of milk? You can strip the title of RC, take away my thanks meter and I will continue on doing what I do.......If you're not going to help then you should really STFU because you're making yourself look like an idiot!
You think the main reason for these types of forums is to provide you with ROMs??? NO this type of forum is actually made for developers NOT users like you! Is made for developers to troubleshoot issues and extend the life of our devices!
YES I admit that maybe if we joined forces to fix 1 ROM it would get done alot faster BUT how can we do that when we got idiots like you asking 1000000 times "why doesn't temple run work" or "I can't see the download link" or "does 4G work with this ROM" instead of troubleshooting and fixing stuff using useful comments, logcats and trial/error!
BUT you know what, you go ahead and rock back and forward in your corner and think you're striking a nerve over here.....just remember what I said, at the end of the day.....you're still YOU

You couldn't patronize your way out of a wet paper bag... TROLL ON TROLL
Go back under your bridge and continue yapping at ankles. Or cintinue to WHINE about what people haven't done for YOU. I can imagine that there must be dozens of people that might actually GAF.
Pretty sure this is the OP's face when he sees another successful ICS Rom from Team D.I.R.T

Once again I'm not mad...I hope the 3 roms you are sitting on are decent. I assure you I am not defending anyone, I had an opinion I expressed it, now you and your lackeys feel the need to bump your gums, or in this case type out your frustrations on me. That's fine..this is the place to express your opinions right?
I can only imagine how much work you put into your roms, but I doubt that you make them just so other devs can better their devices...come on man. Lets be realistic, you know that the larger amount of users on this site are here just to download a rom and move on...if you hate getting 1000000 stupid questions...as you put it...why are your releases public? and broken? correction...SOME are broken.
The easiest way out for you and these other jokers is to attempt to label me the idiot. So be it. Enjoy. I most certainly am guilty of downloading..but if you take the time to examine my post count like your friend did...you'll notice I'm not a spontaneous complainer. I've witnessed quite a few spats on this site..I'm sure u were involved in a few...never thought I'd be in the middle of one haha....at the end of the day..I think your a fairly good dev...
not so sure about you being a decent human being though...once again MY OPINION.... flame on

yes actually we did tell you and you have been told and the truth is that anyone who reads these responses to you would agree that you have been told. The fact is you realize this and are trying to save face. But that's hard to do when you have two of them.
