Just a tidbit of interest here concerning the koolaid that Sprint employees are trying to push. The Sprint employee "mykey" on Sprints Community Forums has all but called the knowledgable and hard working devs here liars concerning the CDMA kernal. Some of you might at least get a laugh out of it! A Sprint idiot at his best! community.sprint.com/baw/thread/25921?start=15&tstart=0&reqsorting=dec
wow thats epic.
ignorance is bliss, "I'm an employee, I know better than anyone else because I have the 'inside scoop'." Except for the slight detail that he's completely wrong about the source code being released, in a sense is is released, but only partially as it is lacking the cdma specific portions.
Edit: He really is cocky and ignorant. Oh well, not worth my time arguing on the internets with a douche-nozzle like that.
That guy is an absolute clown. I'm sure he knows he's wrong by now, but won't be admitting it or apologizing to the folks in that thread.
Being an employee means nothing when it comes to information. I myself am a sprint employee. Sadly many of our customers have more information than what we are privvied. We are usually made aware of upcoming changes about 1 to 2 weeks before they actually go into effect, and most of which has already been leaked or confirmed online prior to it ever hitting us.
edit :found it
this guy is just a douchebag that is probably a "technition at a sprint store so he thinks that he is just the man.
I will be the first to admit that I had some reservations about following advice on this forum. However when I had a problem with my hero (see this thread) I spent an hour on the phone with sprints "advanced tech support" and they couldnt figure it out. I put the thread up and 40 minutes later the first post that replied nailed the problem right off the bat.
I learned my lesson, post here first and then if no one here can help, might as well get a new phone.

Yeah, that's pretty much how I work with everything now, not just phones. I'm tired of speaking to (no offense)people in countries such as India that I can barely understand, and to top off the matter, don't really no what I'm talking about.
It looks like they don't want us posting on the subject anymore:
----------------------------------------
Sorry folks - this thread has generated more than enough abuse reports for personal attacks and more.
I'm closing the thread.
If you chose to take the GPL issue up again, please keep your posts professional, courteous and if you work for Sprint remember that you are representing the company when you post - even off hours.

I wasn't abusive...much.
make a new thread and continue it on lol

he he. I outright cursed the bastard out. It pisses me off when the devs work their asses off on this **** because a company refuses to give us what we have a right to have and then some smart ass says they dont know anything. Ooh it pisses me off.
lol deep breaths chuck anybody with a brain knows that that guy was full of it.
good read...just wanted sound smart and got shot down...
Wow... Educated much?
As an employee, I can honestly say, even during some of my calls, I refer to this forum for answers. xda for android and ppcgeeks for winmo is pretty much biblical when it comes for hard facts, knowledge, and know how. I just had to say that. I don't post much, but I've been able to a lot of tough questions based on the answers found here.
I can't stand Sprint's forums. They are about as fair and balanced as Fox news.

The topic is tired.
If I were you I would work that energy elsewhere while the devs work on getting 2.2 to you quicker.
And agreed with above poster...you are attacking some minimum wage employee who tries to help people with tech support. What is he going to do? March down to the CEO's office right down the hall and tell him YOU are mad and joining a lawsuit?? lol
And as far as a lawsuit is concerned, yes, we all want an update to improve the phones we purchased, thinking an update was coming soon. It hasn't. You are owed nothing! They don't have to update at all. Yet, they will and someone else will get mad because it wasn't Gingerbread...on and on...
Mods, please lock this down as the thread essentially goes against the "Where's 2.2 threads"
One of the fastest ways I can think of to get a company to immediately stop talking to you is to threaten lawsuits. At that point you will often find yourself referred to the legal department for all further communication.
/me hangs his head in shame for the op.
/me slaps op around a bit with a large trout.
good day.
If you want to talk to samsung about it, talk yourself and keep it to yourself. Stop posting all these samsung sucks, etc thread to the XDA forums.
You want 2.2 or something for fascinate so bad, learn some programming and try helping some dev here.
I'd rate this thread 0 stars if I could...
I was ignorant like the OP was, put clockwork and super clean and now much happier. And the OP is a moron, if he'd spend 10 seconds looking under android development he'd see that we have not 1 but 2!!!! Froyo roms working partially.
Your cool...

C'mon people, time to stop beating the dead horse. Berating customer service reps never, ever, EVER gets you anywhere. If you ever do get a seemingly satisfactory response from one of them on an inquiry like this, they most likely made it up in order to make you happy and get off the line. Most of these people are not phone geeks, and do not follow the latest news and rumors. They have no clue about what's going on without it being presented to them in their official documentation, so yelling at them will get you nowhere.
Furthermore, I work in a call center for a tech company, and I get sad (and sometimes mad) when I read chat logs like this, because I've been on the receiving end of crap like that, and it's not fun. Just be glad they have enough class to not give in to your abuse.
Who the f___ actually thinks frontline (read: answering customers directly) reps from any company have any decision making ability, or repository of secret info? What a waste of time bullying the wrong people. I'm frontline tech for VZW, and we are told *nothing* until a few days before due to all the info leaks these days. I get info from boygeniusreport.com, engadget.com, and phonearena.com WAY before I get anything official. Get a life and grow up.

I'm new to the forums, but I can see that the "f" word is not a good topic to post about. Just going through and reading some of the threads in the general section has shown me this is a touchy topic. Maybe if the OP would have done the same thing he wouldn't be getting hounded right now. Just a thought

Hi
What is NoDo?
Thanks
Amedeus
NoDo is an update to WP7 by Microsoft scheduled for March 2011.
Next big update is called Mango and is scheduled Q3/2011. This should bring multitasking an other stuff...
Does that mean that NoDo is 7.7008 as this is an update just released ?
No, as I know, the 7008 is an Update to improve the update capabilities to install further updates.
NoDo is 7389, I think.
So what does NoDO stand for?
Specifically - it is short for 'No Donuts'. Actually, it means nothing - it's just a name. It could just as easily be a reference number.

It is a poke at Android as all of Androids versions have had a name to do with pastry. You know Eclair, Froyo, Gingerbread, and now Honeycomb. It is just a way for Microsoft to make fun of Android publicly and not get sued for it lol. Look at the name of the next update, Mangoo which is a fruit. Fruit is suppose to be good for you and pastries are not get it? I think it is funny myself.

It's reasonably common knowledge why MS called it NoDo, but the poster asked what it meant, which is nothing really - it could have been called 'charlie', 'R2D2' or 'Hon Lionel Prinkinville III' - it's just a means of identifying it rather than imparting information.

You are correct it is just a means of indentifing the update. But it is a poke at Android and that is the reason Microsoft named/identified it as NoDo. Therefore I equate the NoDo or No Donuts to mean that Microsoft thinks their Windows Phone 7 OS is better than Android. Thus making NoDo mean WP7 is better than Android. I guess it is all how each indevidual looks at it. I just find it very comicial and had to post that as VirtualRenzo obviously had no clue about it. Microsoft and their silly word games
Actually NoDo is a reference to a meeting where a microsoft employee forget to bring donuts when he was supposed to.. it was not a jibe at android.
A quick google will tell you that.

I did a quick google and found this. I also found this qouted straight from the search page.
Mar 22, 2011 … The name is a sarcastic reference to Android update that are all … I did not like the UI as it is bland and rather ugly. … US owners of Samsung's Galaxy S Vibrant didn't get Froyo until 8 …

I could not find a article on the guy forgeting the donuts but I have read about that as well. But don't you think them making fun of that guy is where they got the idea to make fin of Android in the same way. But thos is not worth arguing about it is just a name. But the truth is the truth.
The link you posted said the following:
"rumors have it that windows new firmware name "No Do" is a punt for Androids "doughnut" firmware"
I highlighted the crucial word. The blogger, like you, is only guessing what it means.
Here is the official response by Charlie Kindel, a WP7 developer, via his twitter :

Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha...................... That is so funny
Do you really take that as proof?
That sounds more like someone covering their butt from lawsuites to me. Somthing somebody said on twitter give me a break.
AlsocI am no blogger never have been never will be. The only reason I sited that link and quote was because you told me to do a quick Google search so I did and that is what I got, ot toke all of like 1 minute to pull that up. I never had a MySpace page, I don't use facebook matter of fact can't stand facebook, and twitter is even worse of a joke and a falacie in my opinion. I don't want to read whatever someone wants to just vomit out, or something they are writting to try to look cool. I try to stay grounded in facts and not fantasy that the corperate world would like for people and strive for people to stay in. I mean really do you think they would publicly admit to the name NoDo being a slight of word against Android. That would be grounds for a huge corparate lawsuite, and maybe even cause Microsoft to lose ownership of therlir precious new OS as a outcome of the lawsuit. At minumal it would cost them a very large amount of money.
Why are people diffending Microsoft anyway? Microsoft has never been called a saint. But the fact still remains call it a rumor or not the truth is the truth. Especially when it is so obviouse that a blind man could see it.
Beleive what you want to beleive, and continue to be blind if you want. I originally posted in thos thread because I thought others might get a good laugh out of it just as I did but I guess I was wrong.

Ok seens you don't think I can use Google (which you are torally wrong) here is a little article I got by using Google. This article does more than just says it is rumored it breaks it down just a little more, and shows it is a direct link to Android with the name NoDo. Funny thing is it was the third link on the first page of links Google pulled up and all I had to type in was NoDo, hmmmmm!
Also you think I can not search XDA, wrong again check out these post from XDA. Link #1, Link #2, and Link #3 And best yet one from you showing you really did not know for sure yourself not long ago.
Also check the link in my sig about "Becoming more familiar with XDA"that is all about how to use search.

Coming In 2012 is Microsoft Windows Phone 7 "STEAK" why steak? cause steak is F****NG GOOD!!
Unless they update to ManGo soon I think windows phone will go the way of the DoDo
I just wanted to point out that Froyo is Frozen Yogert... Don't forget Gingerbread and Icecream sandwich. Android is named after deserts. The Donut release was about 2.5 years ago... who runs that version?
The name nodo comes off as stupid when you realize they thought android was called pastries.

1. Search before posting.. please for the love of all our goofy gods USE THE SEARCH FUNCTION.
I've learned this from several jobs, school, and marketing. When people see more post counts, or a post from an older date, people are less likely to get a response. Along with this, some searches are very vague and just never get the answers we were looking for. I can google almost anything and find what I want to find. My girlfriend, my mother, heck my boss seem like idiots to me when I see how they keyword what they want, and don't get results. And for the people who do find what they want, probably dont find exactly what they want.

But point is, yes, step one, is always use search. if you don't. someones going to ignore your question and tell you "USE THE SEARCH FUNCTION."
please do
always will
2. the numbers are inaccurate. It's a 87.896% chance, and the news is generally 2-5 hours old.
Nothing more than me exaggerating.
i'm being an asshole
3. who are you talking to? too broad...and what if...it didn't exist. like batman?
It does not matter who.. if it does not exist.. it divides by 0. then there for it is null.
All posts are a repost of a repost.
4. Now that just ain't nice.
Actually it's very nice.. go watch fight club. absorb the message from that movie.
you obviously got the wrong message from that movie
5. No...bad things don't always happen. Depends on how good the troll is. Some would believe i am trolling you...as I could see it, you are trolling all of us.
Fair enough i never said always.
you just did
6. At this point, i think i've decided you are the x10's headmaster... i once knew a guy who was from germany...
I am just part of the all singing, all dancing circus.
Odd how you feel that way.
Odd how you feel you need to take authority. I give you the nod
7. I was trying too, until you told me/..us...that we aren't special....
Seriously.. that movie.. watch it.
You seem to really rely on Fight Club. Already seen it.
8. thank you. I am glad i am allowed an opinion. I think thats a great guideline
that's
you are welcome
uh
9. you're
oops
lol

Grammar nazi's are overrated, please don't.

4. You are not special.. ever.. you are part of the all singing, all dancing cirrus.
Please let me explain.
We see it all
We do it all.
We can do anything.
We do not forget.
We are prepared
Our words are final.
Our thoughts are adjusted.
We are the all singing, all dancing cirrus.
And no i am not affiliated with any hacking group or terrorist team.
o_o how long is one a "noob" for... just a thought.
@omega; generally i love your stuff, you're a great voice for the enlightened ones - an intermediary.
I feel you sat on the thin line with this post. Example; a new user just happens to read this before the sticky in any forum/sub-forum, then this message would perhaps be more useful than any other instructions they might have read first - they would perhaps feel irritated by the (albeit jovial) condescending tone. I for one have read a few of your posts - so i am familiar with your charming and sarcastic personality!
On the other hand, they have read the rules already, and do search first etc etc etc..
In this instance, this thread becomes an ironic hypocrisy, where it appears that the "rules" that are often beaten about our newbie heads by mods/senior members - dont appear to apply to them....
~#just sayin
NB. if this thread HAPPENS to be the first you have ever read here at jolly old xda, i assure you that you are in fact welcome here, but, as i am sure you have gathered by now, read the rules first and obey. or thou shalst surley be (verbally) slain. any questions??

Thank you for understanding.
It's true i am walking the fine line between insanity and enlightenment.
But i figured we could all read this.
Some will feel offended others will feel enlightened.
It's not what you are reading but how you interpret it.
I also just plainly had fun writing it.
Understand clearly, you are all welcome
This was not a method to slander noobs or to act like i am some 1337is't.
But why are you starting a thread with info that's already been posted and stickied? Rule number 1!!

I am aware of this and the problem is.. awareness.
I used this thread to rant.
The mods may delete it.
My point has been made.
PEOPLE please pay attention. << this was my point as very few seem to read the rules or follow the guidelines.
The point is pointless as many have been ignoring the rules.
I am not saying we should ignore noobs.. help them but also inform them.
One forum i was part of tried using a gestapo attitude to this issue.
It was a complete mess.
It was only due to my efforts and love for that forum that it started to shape up and become a true medium for communication and development.
"I was not a mod, merely a outsider that solidly stood for the right thing."
This is why i make these comments, this is why i rant, this is why i expose myself to harassment and mental torture.. it's not just for me.. but for you.
I stand for all that is good!
My dark sense of humor serves that purpose.
But enough about me.. i am not what is important.
The x10 is and SE's delivery on the product is the true issue at hand.
Whenever i use the search tool and for example i search for launcherpro all i see is roms and stupid crap so i just dont use the search tool 95% the results are roms --

Hey guys,
This is my first thread in the X8 forum and I want to add to the already friendly community.
This thread is for confessions and advice and is mainly aimed at bringing us closer together as a community.
How This Is Gonna Work
If you want to confess anything, be it good or bad, let us know by posting here. For example - If you want to confess that you've had a great day and met some amazing people, post it.
If you want to confess that you've done something which you really shouldn't have done which was bad, then go ahead and post it.
This is also an advice thread because at times, some of the confessions could be someone who really doesn't know what to do for the best. As we're a community, please help them out if you feel you can.
Thread Rules
*As always, Forum Rules apply as normal.
*No making harsh, perverted or racist concessions.
*No arguing with other people.
*No attacking other members, even if they've broken these rules.
*No making fun of other people's confessions or advice.
If you have nothing nice to say, don't say anything at all. If someone says something which offends you in any way, let me know via PM and I'll get it sorted. If any of the above rules are broken, you'll be getting reported immediately. After all, this thread is here to help us all so let's not do anything to get this thread closed down.
1. i should not have fought with QF
2. i am becoming more short tempered day by day... i become angry on every small thing
I confess I used to be a very patient guy. But time after time I find that patience quickly corroding.

One of the best thread to help out people's with life's complications, not just techie stuff......technology should be a helping part for life and not be allowed to take over it otherwise.
I fully support this thread, though I don't remember something to confess right now...

I confess that the night between last thursday and last friday was the worst night of my life. From around 18 on thursday to 12 on friday I had no idea if my brother was alive or if he had committed suicide.
This time, he didn't die. And the last text from him on the thursday said something about that he had woken up and realized he had cut both of his legs. And after that no one could call him or anything for 18 hours.
It made me realize how much I actually love him. something's to be wrong with me since I haven't realized it until he was almost dead...
Just had to write it somewhere, and this thread felt like the right place. So, now you guys and two of my closest friends know about it. Never imagined that I'd write something like this, on xda... but feels good to just write it somewhere.

Indeed it's good to right something like that. You can always say that to strangers.
@topic: I won't post what I want to confess today. My mind is just too relaxed to worry about anything else. Maybe tomorrow.

Well, the only thing we knew was that he had tried to commit suicide and got sent home from ER and after that no one knew if he had tried to commit suicide again.
So, basically everyone though he had tried to commit suicide again. And those from the ER sent the police to his home when they couldn't get in touch with him either, and the police brought him to somewhere they could keep an eye on him.
But they never notified anyone from the family, and we couldn't contact him. Pretty bad executed from the police... making someone that just tried to commit suicide completely impossible to contact and not saying anything to the family.
@Splux - There's nothing wrong with you at all, seriously.
The famous saying "We don't realize what we've got until it's gone" explains this perfectly.
A lot of people will take what we have for granted simply because we live around it every day and don't realize how important they are.
It really is a shame that most people are like this, but it's just human nature. Don't feel bad because it's really not your fault.
I hope your brother works out whatever problems he has so he stops feeling like suicide is the answer, because it's really not.
I confess, I need to get up off my lazy butt and go take some pictures for the Photography contest.
I confess that nobody like elmir

I confess that I really have nothing to say about that.
I mean, what is there to say when I can't add anything to what you or argue against anything you said?
(also, I promiss, my so called emotions are ****ed up - how I realized that is a whole other story)

Hello everyone.
I confess that i am a very uninterested person and i get through everything in my life just by using my intelligence and manipulating skills.i never express my emotions and i love making sarcastic and ironic comments.
There are many more things i would like to share but i would rather publish my autobiography
Cool thread by the way.

Ahhhhh, home at last.
I confess that being confessionless for so long was confessingly confessious and since I'm confessing this confession thread is just what my confessions needed. (yes, I made most of those words up. )
So.... To be real....
I confess that I love the holidays and buying people things that make them smile. This year, I'm not really feeling it. I don't know why but it's a little depressing thinking about it.
