I read on masters twitter that he was selling his phone. He did say he would continue the axura project. I just want to know if hes still working miui.

I'm sure he will be an asset to whatever dev community he decides to contribute next. He'll also get to do a fresh start without all the drama. Good luck Master, Axura was the first ROM I installed on my Vibrant.
BYE master, dude I loved your roms, I fell in love with Axura back in 2.1 days, you'll be missed, nut not forgotten, I'm sure I'll see you around.. SGS2 ;]
sweet! he better get a Optimus 2X.
maybe donations?
The MIUI has several devs on it.. JF being one of them, there will be updates for that (And I will still try to help with it as much as possible)

I never tried your roms dude, but always read about your great work and you helped the vibrant a lot. It sucks your leaving, it was always nice to see the options.
Whatever you do.peace be with ya man.
Master,
thanks for all you work here. Axura is a great rom, not to mention your other contributions.
Sucks I finally try Axura and love it and you are leaving. Good work and good luck.
Truly sad to know you are leaving.... Axura has been the best ROM for my phone ever. I have tried almost all of them until Axura and never switched from it again.
umm master how's battery life on your yet to be gotten phone.
Going for the S2 Are we ?????.......hmmmmmmmmm ???

Dear master,
I love your roms, and now your leaving me....
So consider this as my suicide note.
I am currently hanging from a fan with a rope on my neck. All I have left to do is push yhe chair away.
I will wait for your response, and if its the wrong response... You know the rest.
But seriously don't leave.

That's too bad Bye Master.
Hopefully whoever picks up the MIUI project can give us an update soon.
I'm a n00b, but wanted to give Master some love. Axura has been my daily driver since I got the Vibrant and has done nothing but meet or exceed expectations. Good luck.
BTW, with CM7 working its way to the Vibrant he may have picked a good time to bail.

Easy fix for that... resurrect your continuum and come back to the fold.
So get this. This chick I know had a DX2 and the screen wouldn't work right for her. I saw on facebook she was selling it so I asked how much and she said $20. I think maybe I can get it working and for 20 bucks, why not. I buy it from her a couple hours ago, plug my charger in and it works just fine. So I got a DX2 for $20 and I'm sorry to say it but I might not be around here as much. But thank you so much everybody for all you have done for the Continuum. When I first got it I was a little disappointed but after all the hard work from everybody it made the Continuum awesome.

One day I was on the verge of smashing my continuum after failed verizon and samsung support for this device. Tired of the same old crap I scoured the internet far and wide looking for ways to improve my experience before giving up. Then a friend referred me to this forum, and I must say that I no longer have the urge to flush my phone like the piece of crap it once was! I have been silently scoping the forum daily until today when I decided that the very least I can do is register to give thanks to the many such as yourself who have invested time into making this device what it is today. Thank you for making me not want to break my phone
So, I am a new user to XDA, but am by no means a newbie developer. PHP, PERL, C+, .net, powershell, you name it.
I wanted to give thanks to Mazwoz, as that poor soul has received the most ridiculous amount of trash talk for no reason. Also, a thank-you for his service (assuming he is enlisted and not a contractor).
Anyways, thanks to MazWoz for your work, and I hope that this silly 10 post minimum garbage goes away.
Otherwise, I guess I'll just post 10 more threads about how silly this is.
(Actually, I won't, but it made me feel better to say so.)
Mazwoz, if you happen so see this, I wanted to get you some information about a gallery issue I am having, I might have fixed it in a reproducible way.
I agree, even though he came out of nowhere with a rom, it turned out to be remarkably smooth for a first run ICS rom. Keep up the good work, man!

My first post here..but a long time reader and follower of many ROMs.
Thankyou MazWoz. Installed it and works awesome so far..Battery life is 30 hours and counting (on regular battery), and I am power user. Excellent work.!!
Waiting for your HW acceleration and Chrome fix.
Also would like to give big thanks to mazwoz... I've been using his ROMs for a few weeks now and they have been great daily drivers. I don't ever use 4g because for my experience its unreliable at best. Thanks for a great ICS rom and keep up the great work.
Just like the first one, I've been reading, reviewing and testing long before I decided to join. A lot of appreciation to any and all developers, I am running MazWoz 4.7...props sir!
+1 here! Been using this ROM since its stormy beginnings!
4.7 is the best yet!
Question for other 4.7 users, Google music suddenly incompatable?

Truth! MazWoz is the man!!
BTW, got out of the Army as an E-5..... WAY too many years ago....
Not a fan of the 10 post minimum either, but I do understand the reasoning behind it. Just started tinkering with roms, but MazWoz-Evo JB 4.1.2 is the best one I've seen so far. So I thought I'd throw my thanks into the pile too. Look for my comments on the rom page soon... Thanks Maz!
MazWoz JB B3
I wanted to post a comment to the official development thread, but I couldn't. I have so far only been lurking in the shadows and not participating in the conversation so I'm nowhere close to the ten post minimum, even though I've been frequenting those pages for years!
I've been flashing my phone ever since my first Droid Eris had 1.6, and I've been running Maz's Jelly Bean ROMs since B1. This most recent release is (obviously) the most stable and fastest I've seen yet, and that goes for ANY JB ROM. I've tried a few, but Maz is the best. So the real reason I wanted to post was...
I want to thank MazWoz for spending so much time working on this. You have managed to breathe new life into my old-ass phone (not to be confused with my old ass-phone). Google Now is amazing, I love the new alarm clock, and the SPEED, man! Blistering!!
With B2, I was having a lot of issues when I'd open an app and it would freeze and reboot, but so far that seems to have been resolved. This ROM is so much smoother and faster in general, I don't even know where to begin singing your praises. If I could ask one favor, please include the option to center the clock in the status bar in your next release! I know you're already working on fixing the camera screen, so in summary:
KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK, AND THANK YOU!!! [cue applause]

Just came to say hi!
I have spent most of the time with stock ROM, and just tried Revolver/Revolution. I am sure you get lots of answers. Anyway don't hesitate to drop by the ROM thread. You will get lots of info there.
Good choice on getting this device. There are lots of other things coming out, but too be honest, none of them really warrant a tablet swap (well, maybe the Surface tablet because it's definitely different by a crapton), and this tablet gets a lot of attention from the devs. Have fun flashing roms! I've gone from Prime to Revolution to EOS to CM9 to EOS-Jellybean-Nightly. It's great having so many capable developers willing to work on this tablet .
On a side note, my name is Calvin, and I have an orange tabby named Hobbes. Completely unrelated, except CalvinH has the picture and stuff.
Haha, thanks for the warm welcome guys. I was starting to feel alone here.

I have used Android revolution HD, revolver, TEAM EOS JB, ASOP JB.. all of them good... do not install JB ROMs as they have some bugs like low volume and 1080p video playback... so they r stable but still not completely cooked... all ICS ROMs are really good... personally I love revolver ROM..

A peach face love bird named killer

Many many chickens and pigeons
2 dogs, a bearded collie and a hyperactive ADD mini aussie/husky with little dog syndrome
And 2 cats.
As for roms, ARHD is great! I ran it for a while with a stock kernel and had a great improvement over the stock rom. Im now on revolver 4.1.1 on a guevor kernel overclocked to1.5GHz. Got noticeably better battery life not overclocked on the stock or another guevor rom but ive only been OCed for about a day and all im doing is stressing and pushing it to see what it can do now.
Personally, im staying away from the JB roms till everything works.

I thought I'd keep up the ideal that the general section is a bin for off-topic wonders.
So I want to love on this phone more.
I saw a quote in the GNexus forums from Anon9mouz in his siggy that made me long for the old days.
"I envy the dumb ones."
It made me really sad. I remember back when I first got into rooting. I found a couple review videos for Bubby323's AOSP Magic ROM, Andromeda by noobnl, and KyleCole's BOSS ROM(Reviews by Dash, before ACS). I also remember reading about Cognition ROM over on the Captivate forums. "You see, it boosts benchmark scores from 1100 all the way up to the mid-2500's". That was what got me interested really. I now know that that ROM was using Quadrant hacks, but it was the idea that I could unlock the power of my device. Watching an old Randy Shear video. I was so afraid I was going to break my phone. But when I finally did it felt so great.
I remember I jumped on board during the beginning of the DK28 era. Frankenstein, Quantum, Supernova, Viper, Nebula, Bonsai, and the ever great idea of CM6. I remember flashing all of them and running Quadrant(back when that really meant something to me). After all, CM6's benchmarks are what pushed me to root in the first place. I remember reading that benchmarks didn't mean as much as I thought, and when I saw noobnl load Quadrant into RAM and get an outstanding score, I decided to go with what felt best to me for the first time. I thought Bonsai was the smoothest and I appreciated how small Frankenstein was(though I hated the theme, but it was so cool how he was able to change it). I decided on Viper ROM because when you used the music player, you could pause/play/stop from the notifications tray. I didn't get the concept that they just added an updated application. I thought they were magical. Emotionless Beast was the first theme I ever flashed. And the first thread I started was about MIUI music. I couldn't find it anywhere, so I figure I'd post it. That was where I got my first thanks, and my first senior member scolding. Damn MysteryEmotionz. Talking down on the newbies. Especially that I knew he was just as bad as me at on point. Oh and I remember Zanderman! I remember watching him not root. And I remember the quest to getting him to the point where he was comfortable with it!
Then Mike_77, asdfghjkl, fusingblackrose, raymond, and I started where ahmgsk left off and ported MIUI 1.3.5. I originally was just decompiling for asdfghjkl, but I eventually started smali huning for myself and I got SMS working It was such a thrill. All of the builds we made we posted publicly for everyone to play with. Kind of like what happened with MIUI v4 and CM10 now. Free for all.
I remember how amazing it was when Rodderik released Genocide BEFORE official with 1.2GHZ overclock. That was a feat. And a few days later EB13 hit the market. That's when things began to change. I began theming. And became one of the best without using DreamForgottens accursed guide. Tim and I were up for hours going through XML files and smali just to see what we could tweak. I began work on Nebula Theme beta...and it was a disaster. Nebula Theme v1 came out as the first theme to feature Maddoggin's lock mod. And I was super proud.
I joined ACS around then. I remember it being such a big deal, how Tim built up to it and then didn't tell me until an unexpected letter from ACS head came in. I was accepted with ease. And given a nice article. I got an ACS email address and given all of the internal log ins. I even had to sign a non-disclosure at one point. That was back when ACS' name meant something to people. They were the only group that mattered then, and I got all sorts of praise just for being in. Nice then groups like ERA and IAP came into foreground. Too bad ACS was a waste of time. I remember SRF 1.2. And how everyone but me loved it. I was running BakedSnack you see. That was fast. Haha. Know what was something I kind of regret in a childish way? Not being able to flaunt around SRF 1.3. Oh yeah. It existed. And it blew away all others. New Twilight kernel, clean theme, fast fast fast, Chris41g's last gift to this forum. And it didn't even get released. At least I'll always have it. I remember VisionKernel. 1.2 was bricking phones and such. I always kept it for the insane overclocking(at the time). And I got to use 1.3 for a while too. Thomasskull you big dork.
I learned plenty of during the GB leaks. I was able to properly pack FB15(remember FB15? Yeah me neither). I made it a ODIN tar, and I released MY FIRST ROM! Stock+ I called it. It was just clean. And I was happy. I figured when official came around I would upgrade it. And when it did I released Mortify. But at this point I was painfully knowledgeable. Sure CM9 was fun, but it wasn't as cool as CM7 or DK28. That was the golden age of development on this device.
My most recent appreciation for this forum is Kennyglass123. I missed the whole Impaler era of moderating. And frankly, we never had a good moderator in the time that I've been here. When Kenny got promoted I was elated. Finally! A moderator that will watch our forum! Finally! A moderator with less of a life than me! He'll be SO punctual when responding to my PM's! And he has been, and he will. He's amazing. And he should probably start using the server space I set up for him...
Ignorance is bliss. And it's why my Galaxy Nexus won't ever compare to how I feel about the Epic. I literally love it. And I love the community it came with. I know we are spread far and thin, but I want you all to know that you're like a family to me. And I still recognize names, even on other phones. Thank you all, so much. You've made me who I am today.
UBER will always be Biggoron to me
And I remember this one guy. I think his name was flastnoles11. He's wasted SOOOOOOOO many of his thanks on me. I guess I am as hilarious as I whisper to myself at night...HE'S DOING IT AS WE SPEAK
And I dedicate this post to iSaint.
Oh yeah, I started that ****.
Started on one of my themes. He was really into calling first, so one day I took it and simply put "First. Sorry iSaint"
He replied with "Damn you!!!" or equivalent.
And then EVERYONE for a long while did it as well! And I mean everyone. Even lurkers then were doing it.
Good times.
Quite a journey you've had! Man hard to believe this is my first smartphone ever and already know the things I do! And uber will always be biggoron to me too! I know I loved this last mortify v2 and your cm9 theme was amazing (forget the name, the red one, haha) I jumped on this phone after the ec05 update and promptly rooted and flashed srf 1.2... good times... gonna hate it when I upgrade, but sometimes a little hate is a good thing :thumbup:
I was thinking about the first time I posted a thread, in the Q&A forum, trying to find the stock rooted EC05 tar. Ugothakd and this "Kennyglass" guy posted replies, like;"dude, did you check Dyehya's 'How to Unbrick your Epic' thread? Its right there!" I felt like such a moron, but Kenny was very encouraging. Come to find out he lives 20 minutes from me, originally from NY; kind of my "kindred spirit". Whenever I asked a question, he was the first to answer. I'm sure he regrets the day he gave me his Gtalk contact info...

How odd that just this morning I was thinking about how far things have come and the journey the Epic has had. You mention alot of what I was thinking but I was also remembering the journal/don't journal debates, RFS vs EXT4, battery calibration by discharging your battery then pulling the battery with the charge cord plugged in, CIQ just to name a few more. When was the golden age of development? For me it begins with the Epic since that is the first phone I even new could be improved by you guys.
Thanks for taking the journey and helping us lurkers out.

Ah yes. I remember all of that! I was all about calibration.
i was a journaling off kind of guy. But until MTD it was EXT4 4 life!
And when k0 found and removed ciq. And then it went kind of unnoticed for a long time. And then trav made such a big deal it set a ball in motion.
Thanks! Maybe i should just make a list of topics that arose with the Epic.

Your post got me thinking about how much I'm learning. Even if it is so late in the lifecycle of our phone. It'll be a bittersweet day, when I find my I9300 for a good price and move on from this phone. I'm sure I'll keep my Epic, although it'll be in eternal airplane mode. It'll make a nice crash machine, mini tablet, media center remote, etc.

And that carries on to other device forums...except those with their devices stuck up their ass report those posts as trolling! I snuff those as quick as I get them.
Nice trip down memory lane! I finally jumped on the rooting and flashing with DK28 because I needed Flash to work on out Epics for my GFs website to show up. Then the Best Buy tech was walking around with his Epic flaunting his Froyo so sat my ass down and read and read. Flashed SuperNova first, then Midnight the next day, then determined to get the SuperNova bootani on Midnight, then Bonsai where I became part of that team, then the rest is history. Once the bug gets in you it is tough to get it out.
Nice Epic history my friend!
May the Epic live forever as the first of it's kind to boldly go where no phone has gone before with a slide out keyboard!
My only regret...... Not rooting sooner. Missed out on some great times.

Wow real late. I was on eclair when I got mine. I remember cuz my bro had the EVO and he had flash and I did not. I almost got that phone.... I'm so glad I didn't, he to this day regrets not getting the epic.

Wow darkie, I remember alllll of that. God ViperRom...and BakedSnack lol. hero_over! Lol. Jesus that was bad...but BakedSnack was my first ROM. But Viper quickly stole my heart...and Rodderick's kernel were just so....good. the best.
I remember when froyo went official OTA, and the freaking mayhem that ensued in that thread trying to teach the noob how to pull it.
And Zanderman! Darkie, the zanderman saga was amazing. And I remember he was waiting for....the lock screen mod? Yeah, I think it was that...I remember referencing it in that thread ("somebody tell zanderman") and the OP didn't know what I was talking about...so sad lol.
I've been here pretty much since the beginning, and although my OG epic is my secondary phone, I still have this forum favorited and pop in every day.
What amazes me darkie, is that you seriously lurked for that long. I heard of you and always thought you were on a different device. That's some serious stealth, considering my time spent on xda rivals the mods. To think that you were here before dk28 (those who don't know dk28 should spend some time in the zombie threads) amazes me.
Oh yeah and...when's tmiller gonna get tv-out working?

I got my Epic like 2 weeks before Froyo went OTA I kept checking every day to see if I got it. After a few days I got ticked off and started searching and came across XDA and haven't left LOL.
I LOL'd on the tv-out.
