I think he was trying to develop his ability to take criticism so lets help him out...
Why is this post in developing? You aren't developing anything for our phones!

Wow thanks for being an understanding community. I posted it here because I thought the OP of the thread I saw awhile back would see it quicker in the dev thread.
Also, how do you know I'm not planning on developing something for the epic?
No wonder the epic community is mostly dead apart from a couple devs... so many ungreatful and unhelpful jerks.
Thanks to the first reply with the link!

That's the sad truth right now- and what most of the new members think. But try posting in the questions and answers Thread (stickied)- I usually have success in there. Or try the IRC (chat) channel (I think stickied) for quick answers.

K..that's not helping Once we (they) have the 2.2 source, I guarantee you'll be eating up the custom roms/kernels.. as will I. But for now, we're all anxious and pms-y.

Rules are rules bud. We're just trying to keep things organized

I understand rules fine... but I understand courtesy even better.
There was logic behind my reason for posting here that I hoped the community would understand... if a mod reads this just move the thread.

Keep in mind, I'm pretty sure that's based on 2.1. If on 2.2, my best advice is to not remove the drm apks. (It does caution about media issues, which it def causes on 2.2).

Yeah been there done that lol... I removed those from an EE 2.1 rom and then wondered why none of my music would play.

[Q] are there any stable gingerbread roms for the epic

just curious all the roms im finding are still unstable

Do you see any in the development section?
This thread is useless and shouldn't have been asked.
Ed12 (gingerbread) was just leaked. Its broken coming from samsprint.

Yeah, well, there are also forum rules people are supposed to read and follow. "Search before posting" is one of them. So yes, we get tired of people asking the same questions over and over again, when a look at the first few threads would likely turn up results.
Typed by Z using the Gingerbread keyboard.

While that is true, if you(or whomever responds) just responded explaining that in the first place, this would be a much nicer forum. Everyone is quick to snap at someone on here. On top of that, half the time you search for stuff on here posts like this pop up, with no answer just smart ass remarks

Also by the OP it is clear he didn't read the OP of the Gingerbread ROMs that he found or he would have seen that they are all from a leak that is not fully functional. I apologize for joining in on the jokes but please at least read the OPs in ROMs you try.
Do you BONSAI?

Lets just wait for impaler to lock this thread then. nothing else is really needed to be posted here.
Here's the best gingerbread there is AT THIS MOMENT

Edit: I will hit thanks tomorrow ran out of thanks today.

I personally like this idea but I can see how it may get out of hand. Flagging thread for mod/admin review.

we dont need an off topic within the epic section. we need a cage.

How many moderators do we have for the epic section? Is it just a had full of moderators for all areas of xda? Just seems like moderators are popping out of nowhere? Funny thing is haven't even heard of such people and posts are being closed left and right.

How about a Epic chit chat forum so they can throw all the threads in there....like this one.. I do not like seeing them. I want to see Epic threads.
All the vote for me...go click this..charity messages need to go. Everyone has issues whether it be physical, financial or whatever, nobodys life is perfect. If everyone decided to start a thread about their relatives sickness or some bill they got hit with this place would be 10 times the mess that it is now.
I am fine with the charity stuff in your signatures as they can be shut off.

I vote for immediate deletion of any threads that don't fall under the category named in the title of the forum - so if it isn't Epic related, it should be in another section. If it isn't smart phone related, it belongs on a completely different website.
As far as social topics, XDA has no need to compete with facebook/google+/etc...

honestly guys, if you don't like a thread there's no reason for you to post in it. =\

The MIUI team has apparently received an atrix for development, so we should be getting it sometime in the near future!

I'm willing to donate once some progress is shown. Nothing big for progress though. Once there's something that is nice and stable, that's when I slap down some money for deserving devs.
Too many times people have gotten screwed by developers just dropping the ROM or Recovery. I think everyone has learned by now to hold onto their money until some work is actually shown.

I like u alcapone!

Why not squeeze some winky faces or stars in the title between the 17 exclamation points and the dollar signs, you know just a little incentive to get people to click on your thread instead of the one you copy/pasted? Mods need to start closing these duplicate threads and giving infractions for them these duplicates are getting way out of hand.

ICS on NS4G

I noticed that even though the ICS source code is now available Google only has Android 2.3.7 drivers for the Nexus S 4G's internal hardware (CDMA/WiMAX, Orientation Sensor, etc) available currently. Is it possible to compile a working version of ICS using the Android 2.3.7 drivers for the Nexus S 4G? Also, if I follow Google's compile instructions to the letter is there an easy way to backup my current stock ROM? Google's official stock ROM's for the Nexus S 4G phone has a script called "install-recovery.sh" that runs on boot removing Clockwork. Am I correct in assuming that ICS would do this if I compiled it myself per Google's instructions and flashed it to my phone?

My goodness ics is making people bonkers.

This isn't dev section material... And there are already working builds of ics if you don't want to go through the hassle of doing it yourself...
Although! If you do compile your own, then post it in our lovely dev section.
Follow the leader @corythug

I'd rather compile my own. As stated in my original post I just need a couple of questions answered first. Otherwise there won't be any new ROM's from me in your so-called lovely dev section.

This will be moved once a mod sees it, but, next time know this. People will be more apt to help you out if you put a thread like this in q& a or even maybe general instead of mucking up dev forum with a non dev thread.

OP, I apologize for the others lack of decorum on this site. I am afraid that I am not much help, but I have a couple of suggestions:
As far as the backup, you can make a nandroid and once you are done playing around you can reboot into the boot loader and use the fastboot to reload the recovery onto the phone. From there you can re-install the nandroid backup. Keep in mind that you might want to copy the backup off of the SD card just in case you need to lock/unlock the phone. (This erases the sd card.)
