LOL....they started CM7 without your help, starting from scratch and to my knowledge avoided referring to your "work"
And from the looks of it, they've accomplished more in 2 days than you had in weeks...
Oh, and this new thread isn't really necessary is it?

Nah man regardless just got to the developer section and see how many topics are started by noobl or reference him. Dude is important on these forums and we which him the best because lets face it he did a lot of good around here.

noobnl has done more for the epic than most people on this forum have, and only a handful of developers have contributed equal or more. most of the people who post here and make roms simply theme a few files and call it developing. what you need to understand that even though they have cm7 booting, noob had cm6 booting months ago, that isn't the hard part. the hard part is getting the radios and data to work, noob did this with help from very few people, and it took a long time (because he largely did it by himself minus help from skeeterslint forcystos and a few others) but so far not ONE other people have managed to accomplish this task.
:middlefinger:

I wish him the the best, and also we don't know what happened behind closed doors, metaphorically speaking. So lets just leave it at this.

You probably shouldn't run your mouth (fingers?) without learning a bit of history, not-so-ScientificOne. As others have stated, noobnl has contributed much of the early work that current development is built upon...
noobnl, thanks for the work you did to get us this far!

Appreciate your work man. I'm sure your sweat equity will be beneficial to everyone in getting this off the ground.

Thanks for all the hard work you put into both the CM6 project and the Epic as a whole. Your efforts have gotten us really far in this game. Even for the stuff you indirectly accomplished, like gaining the attention of some of the more seasoned devs, so that we could get more stuff done.
You're definitely a great resource and this community is better for it.

I hope I'm as cool as noobnl when I grow up.

+1 thanks.

My post may have been a little harsh, but obviously you don't know what you're talking about. In regards to CM7, the team of Dameon and others aren't relying on what noobnl has contributed. In fact, who do you think this blog post was aimed towards?
http://www.cyanogenmod.com/blog/a-note-on-unofficial-ports-and-how-to-get-it-right
Dameon and others are trying to get it done the "right way".
It appears, to me at least, that noobnl is attempting (by starting this thread) to get some kind of credit for the work they're putting together, which is probably very little, if any. And if any, I'm sure he'll get the credit he deserves.
Sure, noobnl has done a lot for the community, I for one certainly appreciate it, but that's not what this thread is about now is it?

hmmm, so sounds like we have two dev-groups working on CM now because I'm pretty sure the recently announced group working on CM7 basically said straight up they had yet to even look at noobls progress bc it wasn't actually CM worthy and bc they started group up.
so using logic we can see that noobls 'transition' is to a different group. to bad he won't enlighten us on who that other group is. imagine that, half a statement that tells us not much at all and then some "look at me and what i did" statement, as usual.

Rant "on behalf of" the Devs here...

Guys. Chill out with the pushing for AOSP, CM, and others to push out a GB ROM. It is completely inappropriate, and disrespectful to what everyone here has done for the community. I'm beyond sick of seeing frantic posts left and right about how "ZOMG I AM DYING FOR GB!!!!1111oneoneone" et al.
Enough is enough, please. and no, nobody asked me to post this... I'm simply fed up with that nonsense polluting threads left and right when the devs are people just like you and me. It's an insult to their talent, time, and efforts.

I second eliseexige. We all want Gingerbread and, yes, most of our devs work wonders when it comes to building ROMs but we must have petience. Devs aren't magicians, they are normal human beings, most of which have jobs.

Not everyone has the time to scour through thread AOSPmod thread. This is much more obvious.

Yea your right... but still it's even in the wrong section... lol but whatever it is what it is...

I agree with the OP to some degree. Also, for all those who use the ROMs, I think that donations should be a no-brainer. However, I don't think its wrong to ask for news, we are all excited about the ROMS and are constantly checking the forums for them. I just don't see the harm in asking (demanding is one thing).

There's no harm, but it's relatively pointless to ask, since rarely are there ETAs for them. Plus, it makes reading through threads to be a bit of a chore when it gets constantly bumped with people asking "When is this coming out?!?!" (also it must be really annoying for the devs).

I have actively not been working on Gingerbread.
I have yet to set up 64bit for it.
I have instead spent the entire weekend in an awesome coma due to multiple alcoholic beverages.
I did pass my finals though. It was great.
Tomorrow, I set up 64bit MM.
Ok.

I shouldn't even have to bring this up..

You people that are requesting everything on gods green earth just relax. Froyo just dropped yesterday. I'm sure the devs don't want to be up all night porting your theme request, and apps.
Just be thankful that we have froyo. Everyone *****ed about not having froyo. Now your just overloading the forums of request. Just give it time it will come.

There is a great possibility that they already know what froyo needs.. I'm sure voodoo and a proper cwm will be first on their list... Then cleaning, fixing, and getting rid of the verizon spy..
Just give them some coffee money to keep them on the fascinate band wagon..and hope it keeps them from jumping on the new dual core phones coming out soon
Thanks jt and kaos!! Good work and thanks to all the rest that I don't know the names of
Rocking dj05 and jt's voodoo 5
Agree completely. I saw requests yesterday evening on the forums, which is absurd. You can't expect the devs to get a froyo leak working AND release a complete library of froyo themes and ROMs on the same day. I'm sure within the next few weeks there will be MORE than enough ROMs and themes to go around.
If anything they deserve a thank you thread for what they do! Not request

Just because someone requests something does not mean they expect it, much less immediately. Perhaps there have been some rude people who did give off such an attitude, but it's hardly fair to lump the properly appreciative and understanding folks in with them.

Actually it does matter. Attitudes like this and "angry mob" threads will just scare people off or prevent them from posting for fear of being pounced on. Not the best way to foster a community. And I can't speak for XDA as I rarely post here, but PLENTY of people on another board I frequent have not been shy with their praise of devs and contributors. Just because there aren't specific threads for it doesn't mean no one gets thanked
But anyway just my two cents. You may all resume burning effigies.
on a lighter note, nitsuj is a beast at theming, cranking out a couple themes mere hours after the leak went up.

That's entirely possible, and if I've offended anyone then I do apologize, I just don't see the harm in people (politely) requesting ports of this or that theme. It gives the devs/modders a good idea of what's popular and therefore what to focus on if they feel so inclined.
If the offense scares noobs from posting where's my froyo? I'm willing to do it.
I'm tired of the honeycomb and gingerbread threads...
If it scares them to simply searching and reading threads, than I'm willing to take the hit as an offensive member... It's rediculous how many noobs think they are obligated. If someone needs help, they can follow the proper channels rather than posting on development forum where everyone is eagerly waiting for the latest and greatest...
i dont see a problem with request.. we all love what we have.. but i believe request are an idea.. now ya gingerbread and honeycomb, thats pretty absurd but i believe ppl are giving ideas asking questions.. thats what forums are about right?? we all appreciate what the devs do.. they doo everything.. make all of our hacking dreams come true and its awesome!! and im def down for thank you threads.. they deserve more than that.. any devs in ohio, ide gladly buy u a beer.. but forums are for discussions. ppl should be able to say what they want without being criticized, unless there ridiculous(gingerbread honeycomb)

This I agree with, I see no harm in people requesting themes, like someone else said it is good to know what is popular, it's not like most are trying to demand it or expect it to happen immediately.
People asking about Gingerbread and Honeycomb is a little crazy, while I think they should search but it really doesn't bother me all that much. Worse case scenario answer them or don't.

[Donation Fund] Epic for a CM7/MIUI DEV

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.

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

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.

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.

Oh hey man, I know you have good intentions and all but I do see the other side as well. Since the Epic is my first smartphone I have never even gotten to try Cyanogen or Miui before. I am sure they are great and I look forward to the chance to try both. I am sure it won't be much longer.

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.

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.

Honestly, the source is right around the corner...

CM7 Release Candidate soon? (Purely Speculation!)

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."

Now this is purely speculation as the title says so if anyone gets disappointed when it doesn't happen.
Now i could be looking at this completely wrong so feel free to call me a dumb ass if i am wrong.

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.

I'm pretty sure the dev team has said all they need to do is get the fingerprint scanner and webtop working then they can submit it to cyanogen mod to try and get official status, since before cyanogen will accept any port it must not break any functionality that the stock rom had

The webtop might take a while since it seems they have to design their own version of 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.
I installed CM7 on my Atrix and now it's running too fast. I can't keep up with it. Also the benchmark scores are too high, and the battery lasts too long. Plz fix.

HaHa Good one!!!!
I think a lot of the trolls here are just ungrateful...they constantly complaining about things not work like they want them to work and they are constantly bugging the devs about when when when! These same trolls do not take a mere breath to stop and say thank you to the devs that work hard for free. No one has EVER promised them anything, but they complain like it is the devs duty to please them. Somedays I wish I were back in the Aria forum because the community was very helpful and the devs felt welcomed.
FYI good find OP!

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.

Sadly I don't think they'll be having Webtop on Cyanogenmod. Last I heard it was too much work.
if cm7 allowed me to play my movies from my phone on tv when i am away from home i would be on it like a fat kid on a smartie!

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'd love to see lithid dev for the Shift but has there been any indication that he's at all interested?

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.

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.
