I'm probably nuts but I've been called worse on the Hero Forum...LOL...but here is it. I am not a Sense lover, I am a Hero fan so I would really like to see Android 2.2 running Sense on my phone. So...I am hereby offering a reward/bounty/incentive to the first person that can post a fully functioning ROM to the forum that is Android 2.2 with Sense. I am offering $100. I know it's not a ton for what you will be doing but I'm sure that its more than most of you make on here. This is a very serious offer, take me up on it and find out. If anyone else comes along and wants to add to the pot, we will just all make a pact to fulfill the bounty when the product is delivered. Maybe together we can make this worth someone's while...
The rules:
It has to be fully functioning. That means everything, phone, camera, camcorder, mms, sms, gps, etc...and Sense (I think there is a new Sense that goes with Android 2.2) has to work too, all of it. I won't be the judge of this, I'll get someone who is more qualified than me, hopefully I can persuade someone like impaler747 to be the judge.
Needs to be done by mid Jan. as I get a new phone in Feb.
I'm not rich but I think this is worth it and with the dropoff of Hero devs lately I think someone needs to step up and put out some incentive. Any takers?
PS-If this is offensive to anyone, sorry, just trying to help and I am not smart enough to learn 'devving' and too old to start anyways. LOL
This is already being worked on.......
I know, but its not done and I haven't heard of anyone close...so if they finish someone could have 100 bucks!
I wouldnt mind contributing another 100 for the 2.2 sense im in on the offer
Hero on AOSP
Hell, the legend source was released last week. I don't expect it to be too much longer.

you've got to be kidding. you expect people to believe you're gonna put up 100 bucks for a slower rom than cm6 literally half a month before you upgrade and spend money on that? right on dude. if you really want to help donate 100 to nfinitefx45 who is currently working hard on this exact thing, and hope they get it done. and by the way, see my sig, maybe you and this dude can have a sense party together.

well, i guess i don't really know, but logic is not on your side. for instance, you claim to want to donate to a dev, yet you have no donation stars next to your name on xda? also, why give up a hundred a few weeks before an upgrade? also, why not donate to the existing devs for the existing rom which works in almost every way... i am sure all the devs who have been working on sense 2.2 for MONTHS are going to go really really fast now just for you good luck. i will no longer respond.

Youre right, I havent donated to anyone here before, I did donate to cyanogen for cm6. Im glad you wont respond anymore, youve proven your point so clearly up to this point on something that had absolutely nothing to do with you and clearly didnt interest you anyways so peddle your crap elsewhere thanks. I'll take someone legitimate calling me a liar and fake but certainly NOT you.

Hey Epic Community,
I'm starting up a donation fund that will allow us to buy Samsung Epic for a CM7/MIUI developer. Several members including me have pm'd devs like cyanogenmod and toastchf. As we are waiting confirmation, I thought we start off the donation drive in meeting our goal. Also fusingblackrose in the miui.us forums is also helping with a ASOP kernel for the epic. If you think there are other devs in the XDA community willing to help us out please let me know and I will see if they will support the Epic if we donate one to them.
Currently a used Epic on ebay is around $125 -/+ $10 at a good price.
If you are going to donate to this worthy cause please reply with how much and I will keep this OP updated! Again, this is a community effort! Any and all donations are welcomed. Once we meet our target number of about $125, I will set up Paypal link for everyone to donate.
Current Donors:
omair2005 -$10
lynyrd65 - $10
shiroimin -$10
Ceelos09- $10
jdelano -$10
anonymous donations
Total: $60+
how are you getting an epic for 125 dollars?
edit: nevermind i see you put ebay. going back to my hangover

Bringing someone in who doesn't know the hardware would just set them back even further.
And trust me when I tell you this, I've exhausted a lot of the resources in #teamdouche to attempt to get somewhere.

I think they just assume that since your team isn't blabbering away on some cm7 thread that all plans have been abandoned.

No it won't. It really won't.
I've personally exhausted half of teamhacksung in an attempt to refactor the gpio pins. toastcfh is and will always mainly be an msm arch guy, samsung epic is a completely different platform; he'd have to learn a whole new set up.
In case of MIUI "developers", they wait until we have our work done, and have a device repo merged into CM until they decide to support the device. They just take our work and merge it into their repo and start cranking out builds.
This **** you guys are doing is getting on my last nerves man. I know your intentions are good and you mean well, but god damnit. Money doesn't buy you support.

I mean this is a community of epic users. Not everyone knows whats going on with CM7 dev. and its hard to find answers unless you search through threads not even pertaining to epic cm7 or irc which i'm never on. A simple thread explaining what has and hasn't been done would make matters much more clearer. Also what harm would it do if we get one more dev on board?

Lol. As I am someone who is now a bit older than most on here, I have learned patience. I think some of the younger people on here don't have the patience and get more restless every time another phone gets Cyanogen. My name is on a donation list and I haven't even gotten paid yet..lol. I think the donation fund was started with the best intentions but we haven't hit a wall yet. Nullghost, DevinXtreme and Deca have repeatedly said they need the Gingerbread source to make things several times easier. Until that point comes and an impass is reached, we are kind of pissing into the wind. I can understand Deca's frusteration because, in a way, its like saying that our devs aren't good enough to get the job done. I don't think that's the case at all.

Sigh... I really wish people would read more..
The real reason we don't have cm7 is not because of gb source... (if that were the case we SHOULD have had cm6 already), but the fact that samsung has poorly documented drivers for their hardware, and we are stuck guessing/emailing the actual hardware providers for chip layouts and certain calls and actions... HTC and other phones have all of that information well documented and the makers of the phone will actually help you instead of just saying "IDFK" cyanogenmod, miui, and aosp are all in the same boat as they all coincide with each other. It is bs because I know that unless we get this information, we probably won't ever get a fully functioning AOSP Kernel/rom... now, I took programming classes in college and I know the steps to developing something and how it works, but the gentlemen working on these ports asdfghjkl, ahgmsk, Decad3nce, epicCM team and more really do know their stuff. However, I really do think we need proffesional help. At this state, no amount of money, no amount of bickering, and no amount of ETA asking will help these things be developed... All they can do.. is wish and hope that the gb source will help.
Well the idea behind the donations I think is that many of our devs have either jumped ship to other phones or are banned from XDA, so new devs could help.

Honestly, the source is right around the corner...
In the official post for CyanogenMod 7 it says
"There are many devices still in beta status (Pyramid, Doubleshot, Shooter, HP Touchpad, Optimus 3D, several more) that we will be promoting to release or release-candidates in the next few weeks when the code is merged to our main branch."

The CM7 project for the Atrix is not being developed by official Cyanogenmod. Just stay tuned to the google code page and follow twitter accounts.

Once its in RC don't they give it to the official team for merging? that's what i thought happened from my understanding.

That's from the official Cyanogenmod site, which has no affiliation with the development of CM7 for the Atrix.
Yeah, but the current team is responsible for making the atrix compatible with cm7 (thus, they're doing most of the work). Once that's done, they'll be giving it to the official team so they can support it.

Exactly why this is such an ambitious effort. Some people might not have the fortitude (or the patience!) for this phone's technology to be fully realized. For me, I'm kind of excited to own such a unique device and hope the developers aren't discouraged by such a challenge.

This is probably a huge factor along with the massive number of idiots who fail to read directions properly and end up with bootloops and blame the dev's for making faulty software.

Since you still don't realise what the word "troll" actually means, let me clarify for you.
A troll is someone who posts inflammatory extraneous, or off-topic messages in an online community, such as an online discussion forum, chat room, or blog, with the primary intent of provoking readers into an emotional response or of otherwise disrupting normal on-topic discussion.
ie the very people you are complaining about are not, in fact, trying to provoke people, but rather are just uninformed people asking for help. In fact, you are the one closer to a troll then they are since you keep insulting them instead of directing them to the right answer, potentially provoking them into an outlash of anger.

We dont sit here and update or post all day because its un needed, exhausting on its own, and frusterating to the point of cursing. I can once a week come to this thread and after going through 20+ pages find maybe one thing worth replying to, like this time and the gentleman that requested a few pages back that i call this kang and not official ?!? Why because we have waited till we deemed ready to merge ? Everything we released has been stable and useable i have not touched another rom in months, we will merge shortly, it will be up todate 2.3.7 or what ever uptodate is than. We are all running 2.3.7 curently , there has not been another release because IOO there has not been enough added fixes that we felt the need to do so yet. Mostly we have been waiting on FP. I have it working 100% fine actually better than stock, but it haz created a bug with calls when enabled for an unknown reason. I have been working on the same bug for over 2 weeks . Once again iwasted more time i could have spent on the bug to reply to those of you that felt i needed to "give updates" to a 170 page hell hole where no one reads in the first place Anyhow we appreciate your all excited , so are we , mostly so we can stop working keep in mind we want itcompleted and working obiously more than you do so either relax and wait or keep yelling inhere like a jakaninny IDGAF, but i will post updates when i am ready as will the other team members.

I'm not sure how busy he is with his other projects now that he's joined the cm team, but we could at least get salvagemod or some other ports perhaps. I for one want salvagemod even if it is just gingerbread. I've tried to port it but well, I'm just not him...I've emailed him but I think he's interested even though I have not heard a response yet. And salvagemod does have it's own nightlies. Who knows, he could bring more then just salvagemod, but I'm not going to jump the gun and start expecting things right away.

I'd donate at least 20 to get him over here but only if he wants to and people are committed to getting him to the shift side

Well like I said I still have yet to hear anything back from him. What would you say if someone offered you a free phone? And if we do get him a shift no one can expect anything. We can hope for the best I guess. I will even help port/compile salvagemod if need be and contribute to the projects as much as possible. I think that is what it really comes down to. Who wants salvagemod and is will to help contribute to it by at least providing logcats? I mean seriously all I ever see in the forums is people complaining but never offering anything usefull. If I'm the only person then I doubt he will want to do it...

Yeah i'd take a free phone if people were willing to donate to me. Salvagemod does seem good and i'm glad your willing to help, I've always appreciated what you've done with the shift and if i knew anything about logcats and knew how to provide them i would if anyone needed them but my computer skills are very little in the coding department as i got kicked out of college but i'm all for him coming over and trying to help out as much as possible

So I just want to share an opinion, don't take this as hating because I'm not I respect lithid like I do any developer.
That being said, I don't see the point.
First off your main argument is that he COULD bring SalavageMod.
Why do we need it in the first place? It would just clutterup our threads with another AOSP ROM. We have plenty (Cyclonic,CM7,Evervolv,Shiftdeck). As far as I know it is not our goal to be cluttering up the shift forums with countless ROMS that are basically the same with different themes
Second of all is the obvious point other people have made. Does he even WANT to. Yes, he would be a worthy person to donate a device to just based on previous expierence from him, but if he isn't as interested as other people what's the point. You just made the assumption that he would, you even said he has not replied, so until then I think this should be put on hold.
These are just my points,

Salvage mod is not your standard cm7 alike... Get a clue before you waste space on a thread with dumb uninformed comments... But that's right you call yourself a dev so why don't you compile salvage mod or any rom for that matter? Because you can't... Just my two cents...

Why did you have to be such a jerkoff??? He was just stating his opinion and as such, you would THINK that people would act like a MAN instead of a little child. Your abrasive comment was not needed nor was it called for. Now I'm starting to see why people are leaving XDA, people don't know how to act correctly.

Don't let one person get to you for many people (including myself) appreciate your work.
Yes he was stating his opinion just like drob was. He is right about salvagemod, but that is no reason to try to discredit salvagemod or say that we don't need more roms. What's wrong with more roms? It's a aosp rom that has very little cm stuff in it. It doesn't matter now anyways, we will not be getting salvagemod and I am not at liberty to say why. I can say people attacking is not helping devs stick to xda.

Okay, I was able to file a complaint through a channel that not only has allowed me to order the Nexus 6 I wanted, but also have it sent via free overnight FedEx to be delivered tomorrow... yes, on Saturday.
I was going to post how I did this, but felt it [maybe] unfair to the people who made it happen for me.
So, this leads me to the question: Of all of the people trying to buy this phone, who would truly benefit this community if they were able to get one? Also, who would keep this information confidential and not repost it for the whole community?
Now, I'm not saying this is guaranteed, but from the time I initiated contact, I had a call back within a few short hours, and was able to place an order over the phone.
Are there any developers who have been unable to get it, who would undoubtedly do some serious good by having one?
I hope no one takes this the wrong way. I have zero developing skills, and this is just a tiny way for me to do something for someone deserving since I've benefited so much from this community.
I see what you are trying to do OP.... Might be best to just send a pm next time

Thank you! Ask him if he's willing to wait or if he wants to go this route and I'll PM him. Hell, I've used his kernels more than any other.
@franciscofranco is waiting for his to arrive, @rascarlo cant afford one. and he is a great deserving rom developer.
This thread breaks no rules that I am aware of.
If you do not like it, do not read it.
I understand what the OP is getting at.
He has not solicited thanks or donations, if he does then report the thread.
Thread cleaned. Now keep it clean please

I cannot afford to buy a 2nd one for someone, but am willing to share how I got mine. I know franco is direct and upfront with his words. I don't want to offend him by offering him this info. But if anyone who knows him wants to let him know to contact me, I couldn't think of many more deserving than him.
Edit: thread was cleaned.
MOD EDIT @gregbradley
Please watch your language. If this thread goes pear shaped I will close it. I am watching
I agree with offering the info to Franciscofranco cause he makes a hell of a kernel and keeps it well updated! I'm sure he'd like to get started.
I'd contact CarbonROM or Slim. Last I heard Carbon said they'd only support n6 if they won a phone as no maintainers had money for it.

Please understand what the OP is saying
He does not have a phone to give away
He just knows a way for people to get hold of one quickly, you still have to buy it. He is not selling his own phone.
This isnt even really ground breaking news, all he did was complain up the chain of command and like most execs they dont want to deal with it so in order to make the client happy they just take care of them. You mention they told you not to post online, yet you are doing just that. I honestly dont see the point of this thread, why dont you PM a few of the top developers and see if someone is interested. Its like you are playing a game and somehow you have to be entitled to get your super top secret information.
If it were up to me i would contact someone from Slim team, CM team, PA team, and OMNI team as those 4 are actually doing real development and dont just kang/piece together bits and pieces from every other rom out there.

Well, you have every right to feel that way, even as wrong as you are. The last thing I need to do is justify anything to you or anyone else. I've got a temper, and it has shown on here, but I'm not game player. Like others have said, if you don't like the post, leave it alone.
Well OP im no Dev but if youre willing to shed some light on just how you managed that you'd be the coolest person on xda.
why the sudden change of heart though? you originally said you'd share the info if the phone did indeed ship now you wanna have some sort of vote on who to give the info to? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=57088617&postcount=6033

Boom! Anyway, check back here Friday evening. Once I see my 64GB MB N6 "en route", as in "having left the care of its sender and in the hands of the carrier", I'll post how I got someone to listen to, respond, and sell me a phone, all within the same day.

Yes, you're correct. I was overly excited and hadn't had time to think about it. And then.... I thought about it and how awesome this person on a small team was to me, and decided against it.
I have no problem with this thread being closed. It's obvious aside from the few who "got" what I was trying to do and posted suggestions, the rest have just whined or bickered on here.
