Why have ALL the StupidFast release threads been deleted? Where is Geeknik?

Just thought it was really weird...all the StupidFast kernel threads have been removed. Any idea why?

I was just looking for them. As if they never existed. Weird.

I searched for them today as well and couldn't find them...
I was wondering what the deal was.

Bad news...I just found this:
http://twitter.com/#!/geeknik/status/6988705667481600

I just read on his twitter account that he's not doing the kernel's anymore. Oh well.

He did also post this on twitter for those who are still looking:

Geeks kernels are good yes....but lets face reality here the difference between his and jt's aren't that huge and to say they are that much faster (if they even are at all) is very misleading....and without jt there wouldn't be anything for this phone
BTW I'm not putting down anything geek has done....he's done a lot for the community
Just pointing that out

I agree thanks jt

geek is still around in irc...hes a great guy..stop in and say hi

I haven't gone anywhere. Yes. There was some IRC drama. It is sorted out. No hard feelings between me and jt. We're still working together to make the Fascinate a better phone. Yes, my original kernel was forked off of JT's work, but I'm doing my own thing now and I still pass stuff on to JT when I find it.

And my kernels are also in ROM Manager. I just released a v1.69 TEST kernel in the last 24 hours. It's for DJ05.
Enjoy. =)

1.69 is awesome... keep it up!!
thank you!

1.69 gave me no boot up screen?

I'm trying out your kernels now! I'm glad to have such active devs for root development.

Thanks for all the work on the Kernels!
I just tried installing 1.9 via RomManager, over your previous test version and the fascinate got stuck after scanning media card... forever - should it have worked or am i installing it inappropriately...

Why my releases now say "Not Available"..

That's about it for me. But first a point or two.
Why I came here, what I hoped to provide and why I'm done:
I will be the first one to acknowledge that TW have this thing down way better than I do! I am running Nero Beta 3 as I am typing this! It would have taken me forever to come up with a 2.2 mounting fix, FOREVER. Even more, they were kind enough to give me my own repo on their site. They have been great to me and I have learned so much from them.
BUT, I wanted to provide a little variety for people between the Eugene/Master/TW releases. I think I did just that.
Mjollnir: My first try at a rom, nothing more that just a really, really big theme.
sXe: My second try which included backwards compatible framework.
Volholl: My JK2 / JK6 / JL1 Hybrid
Volholl Valkyrie: Pure JL4
Volholl Ragnarok: Only known 2.2.1 port released for Vibrant, with working wifi and gps - even with the signal related soft boot bug, I was the only one brave enough to put it all on the line and release it,
Volholl PepperKake : Pure JL5 with all images, sounds plus, plus ripped from Nexus S dump
How is it so easy to criticize someone who spends countless hours putting something together for you for free? When you have done nothing for the community other than demand more?
As far as I know, everyone respects sombionix, yet even he has had to come on here and defend a stock release because everyone kept complaining that it MAY have included TW init - which it didn't.
So, that is my rant.
I will continue to release Roms, Themes, whatever you decide to call them - they just won't be posted on XDA for a while, or ever..

Sorry to see it came to this man since I think you have provided some really useful stuff. Sad how people feel the need to troll and criticize things needlessly but I will continue to follow you else where.

Woahhh... Wait, what happened.? I got back within the hour from being with family on Christmas.. More people trolling & flaming people? Didn't we just have a town hall meeting?

Yeah but some people just don't appreciate the hard work of you guys. All they do is come here and complain over little insignificant things because they apparently font get enough attention at home. I don't blame heathen at all for dumping this place. Good thing I can still use his stuff on tw forums.

I am new to this forum and I was lucky enough to grab your Nexus clone for the Vibrant. I absolutely love this rom. That is all.

Honestly, the Vibrant section of this site is going to hell with all these pr*cks pissing off those that actually do something for others. These are the worst of the worst, because not only do they not do anything, but they keep others from doing work as well. Do we really have to be such a$$es while offering criticism?

I'm using CM7 right now, as are many others on this forum. It's up to you if you think it's a daily driver or not, but it's there, right now.

Patience, there's two people working on it (not together) xboarder, and krylon. Its hard to make a 2.3 from scratch.

Cm7 should be out of beta for i9000 pretty soon. Just be patient.

Remember when people questioned if the G1 would ever get updated? You know... the 3 year old Grandpa of all Android phones.
IT is running a newer version of the OS than my Vibrant. Have faith and patience man.

The same old 2.2 roms passing around, people editing icons & backgrounds, changing boot screens & apps. But at the end of the day there all froyo. eugene's macnutR14 is the most customized rom. bionix is nice but doesn't have video calls on the dialer. you can metamorph, ninjamorph, flash, push, oc your phone but its still 2.2 froyo
I want to see all the 2.3 gingerbread affects on vibrant the scrolling animation, the crt animation the camera app, the downloads app where they at holla
I can modify my own 2.2 rom theres so many to take stuff from. stop playing with each others roms work on 2.3 are you guys devs or are you editors cause it looks like besides a few your all editors

Okay, I'm starting to get annoyed at these kind of threads that come from ppl that obviously have no clue in what it takes to build a ROM from the ground on up. Just because android is open source doesn't mean that samsung's kernels are and we pretty much need compatible ones for our ROMs to work. Meanwhile, there are at least 2 teams working on gingerbread ROMs right now. I dunno about you but I'd rather have a fully stable 2.2/2.2.1 ROM out while we have the source than to take my chances and possibly brick my phone on a bug infested build of gingerbread.

Tbh, i wasnt asking about a custom rom. I merely posted the link. I hadn't seen that it was already posted in the Dev section. So please calm down, no one was nagging for custom roms. I do concur though: good luck to all the devs.
@EleCtrOx666, I only posted the link for informational purposes, I wasnt asking or offering help re the source code. Hence my confusion as per your original comment. Yes I edited my comment, so that more people wouldnt be 'confused'.

To be honest after spending nearly a week with this phone, I'm thinking "do we need custom roms for this phone?"
Seriously think about it. Those of you who own this device, it is blazing fast already.
The only customised flashing I will be doing I think will be relating to the improvement of battery life and performance, that's it.
This phone rocks from the box.

Not tried the phone, but I can see a few things needing sorted. A few restrictions samsung put in place in apps that are needing removed. Example being today's fix for the "OMFG I finished charging!" alert More to come, if O2 would get their act together.

Respectfully, I don't think all that many people are concerned by the finished charging sound. It's a nice mod, but most people wouldn't bother with it unless it was part of a bigger set of mods.
The main stuff that would interest most people with this device is mods that increase battery life even further, as well as kernel tweaks like BLN. So more kernel mods than rom mods, I think.
It's hard to believe that you'd ever choose Touchwizz over stock/CM.. until you actually get the device in your hand and see just how well it works. Unlike the latest Sense, it's not in-your-face and the extra functionality is well placed.
I'm sure we can find tons of nice stuff to tweak as time goes by, but I think unlike most Android devices out right now, many hardcore users are actually going to be pretty happy with TW4. It's a bit odd really, coming from the SGS1 where you had to mod the thing or go insane.

DocRambone's ROM stuff doesn't need the kernel sources, afaik. He's going to be tweaking up and releasing an awesome "light" version with a lot of the extras removed - but that is all /system tweaks, not kernel.
Kernel tweaks will likely take longer, and probably come from the direction of supercurio - and the ROM builders will definitely be including that stuff in their ROMs, but it probably won't affect DocRambone's ROMs yet.
As to the kernel sources themselves.. the download link is SO SLOW! 10k/s!

Lol well if the complainers have their phone on silent and have vibration mode only when not in wouldn't then its fine.
Actually regarding alarms I'd love to have phone off and reboot when alarm rings in the morning like Nokia N-series do. Saves battery life span too.

Fascinate development, dead?

Update: development is not dead, JT has resurrected it...Cm7 is amazing!
Forgive me if upset a few people with this post, but is it me or has the dev scene for this device died?
I remember the old school days when I had a G1 on T-mobile, we had a new rom practically every other day! I would hate to not to give credit to the amazing devs we have for our devices like JT and company but as of late things seem have died .
I remember a few months back devs were saying, we cant do much because we dont have froyo source...now we do and the scene looks identical. I pruchased this device because of its "raw power" which back in November was unrivaled, but looking at the vibrant forums and the epic there's tons of roms to choose from, VZW gets no love.
Before you guys get upset and some of my remarks, please understand my POV. Lastly, I realize that devs dont get payed to do this and do it as hobby thus I have no reason to complain, so this is just an opinion....let me know if you guys feel the same or not......

There's still a ton of development work, just nothing totally new recently. Everybody seems to be working on what is already there, just fixing and updating and whatnot.
Sent from my CM7 SCH-i500

What we are waiting on now is GB source.... LOL
In short you are pretty much right. Mostly everyone has moved on to bigger and better things. Now that all the spring goodies are coming out there are less people here to develop.
What we are waiting for really is someone to step up to the plate and take over. The devs that we did have provided a great foundation for someone else to work on.
That being said... the phone is still overpriced for what it is and Samsung has provided some practically unusable code to start with, from my understanding at least.

I can see the Vibrant forum being busy, as they have CM7 now, and likely other AOSP and AOSP based ROMs now, plus TW based ROMs. Not sure about the Epic, but I think they have a semi-functional AOSP base as well, and the Nexus S going the Sprint probably helped them out significantly. However, we're stuck basically with what Samsung gave us. The source did help out significantly for kernels, as it gave us something to work from that we didn't have before. However, the platform source did nothing. Also, there are only so many ways you can configure a ROM based on the stock software. If jt and kaos can get the last few pieces of CM7 fixed up, I'm sure you'd see development take off again, but until that happens, or until we get a new release or source, it will likely be semi-stagnant around here.

JT is working on cm7 I assure you. Latest build was today released in irc. Based on .35 kernel. Everything works but radio and sensors. So that's really good work if you ask me. He'll get it up to speed, jt is a very clever Guy.

Evil fascination came out with a new build today, he is also planning on a bunch of themes for it (2 released already, 5 more to come I think)

well this phone technically is out dated in terms of whats come out since. and we finally have workjng froyo roms which is what all the hype was about. even with home computers you cant keep updating, eventually things dont matching up. just like with these phones. im happy with my fascinate and everything thats been released.

Evil Fascination had an update tonight. It runs fantastic and the theme is awesome. Im sure the community rom is going to have a nice update soon to.
The devs for this phone have been fantastic, they made this phone worth having even when it seemed like 2.2 would never see the light of day.
After the experience I have had with the fascinate my next phone will for sure be a nexus. Even if it means jumping ship to a different carrier.

JT and I were talking earlier and it seems like Coolya and the gang helped with some kernel fixes that seemed to have helped a lot. So if all goes well, we SHOULD have official CM7 support coming soon.
If anyone is wondering EVERYTHING is working, including hw/sw codecs, Bluetooth, wifi, etc. As stated before RIL functions and sensors are no worky, but JT said that radio was his messup and should be a quick fix. ;P

development is relative...we never had a ton of kernels/roms/mods etc because we have a relatively small community
we still have several source built kernels, 2 versions of cm7 (one of which sounds like its advancing nicely) and several touchwiz based roms
if you want to really step back and look at things, we have mods from sbrissen no other phone has (or at least had first as they kang him quickly)...
we have miuiwiz which is a feat never done before (getting miui launcher working on anything but miui)
so for those that just sit around and wait for stuff to be released so they can flash every 5 minutes...too bad...go get a more popular phone so you can flash the kanged rom after kanged rom every day
or you can actually learn to do stuff for yourself like many have

^^^^exactly.
If you sit back and enjoy your phone with the new roms when they do come out, waiting for updates and new stuff comes quicker than you realize. Hmmm, I wonder who told me to enjoy what I have a while ago.... and in all honesty, do you really think the fascinate is out dated? My phone STILL runs circles around my bro in laws tbolt. And if anyone questions our devs ability....have you herd of punk kaos? Or jt1134? Or adrynalyn? Or sbrissen? If you are tired of waiting, go back to stock....you will realize what they have done for our phones.

I never once doubted their ability. Like I said in the OP , we a are lucky to have what we got. My point was that things seem to have died down, not sure if its the phone or the lack of interest. Back in november this was androids flagship device, and, I purchased it thinking that with its hardware and our bright developers, it was going to be a beast. I'm proud of the work done but until a fully working aosp like cm7 comes out, I dontt think ill be fascinated. All the touchwiz roms are fine but slow down eventually. Just expressing my opinion fellas.

Back in november this was androids flagship device, and, I purchased it thinking that with its hardware and our bright developers, it was going to be a beast. I'm proud of the work done but until a fully working aosp like cm7 comes out, I dontt think ill be fascinated. All the touchwiz roms are fine but slow down eventually. Just expressing my opinion fellas.

what do you mean "slow down eventually?" ive never noticed this
and was there ever a time when tons of roms/kernels were coming out aside from immediately after an ota/source code drop/leak?

@Nitsuj17 this is a classic case of something that all people struggle with: a selfish nature. We, as people, are never really satisfied with anything. I doubt even a FULLY functional CM7/GingerMIUI would please people. It's just our nature. We are insatiable. This is not a flame or an attack of the OP, it's just simply an indictment of all people, myself included. Just my $0.02.

JT and I were talking earlier and it seems like Coolya and the gang helped with some kernel fixes that seemed to have helped a lot. So if all goes well, we SHOULD have official CM7 support coming soon.
If anyone is wondering EVERYTHING is working, including hw/sw codecs, Bluetooth, wifi, etc. As stated before RIL functions and sensors are no worky, but JT said that radio was his messup and should be a quick fix. ;P

So if he can get the radio working, we can get official CM7 support? JT is the man....

When we all probably switch phones we will still have a beast mp3 player if you ask me.

just one last thought...as for what is/isnt being worked on and released
jt and pk are still working on cm7 and seem to be getting closer and closer to a very polished product
imnuts and nemesis still work on kernels
com rom and miuiwiz are still being worked...and will have lots of new features when they are out...these things take time though, we could have constant updates or less updates, but of more substance
