Database Users

Looking for your help guys, Transferring ownership for free!

Hey,
As most of you know, I am the sole owner of touch innovation. I have done alot to this website (and I still have more to come). THe problem is, over the next half year I have alot of work ahead of me, that affects my future. But I don't particulary want to go into it.
I want someone that can look after and keep the site going for up to 6 months. I know you're thinking "What's the point in this, what do I get out of it?". Well, you get experience.
You'll get a weekly number of emails, submissions etc from people that use the website, you can monitor these, and help out there questions.
You can add programs from here etc.
Why Am I asking this?
I have spent months and months of coding this website (considering the website is only 4 months old, it's a lot of work). And I've hit a niche in the market, people want a website like this, and I am supplying them with one, but I need it to be updated while I am gone. Maybe some marketing (aka advertising) as well, so everything is running peak, and more users are coming.
This is a non-profit organisation, I make no money out of it.
I will pay the guy at the end (maybe), dependant on how much they have done to the website. And I want them to take it upon them self to make any adjustments. The site will potentially be yours for the half year (I will be checking up on it, and If there are some changes that are iffy, I will contact you about it).
It's good experience, and maybe helping me + the community out for a while.
Thanks guys,
-------------------
Okay, another idea, A team of people can request to be part of the team, and keep the site running well and keep it updated for the time I'm gone

Thanks for anyone who helps in advance, I will be up for giving a little price tag at the end, dependant on whether they've applied effort to maintain the site

No one?

I think it would be awesome to have this opportunity but I have no experience in html coding. Just the basics.

I thought I had replied to this :/
Erm, you dont need any html coding skills. You just need to know how to keep a website updated (using xda, and others) using my simple but easy and clever admin panel. Also advertise to keep hits up etc.

Napbree, I would gladly take this website, but i'm MEGAbusy with studies and work.
I suggest that instead of granting this website to another "sole" person, you create users in your admin panel and grant them to a few people who will keep it updated. I build websites and I can tell you that there's no way i'd be able to handle even one of those i've built, myself.
If a group of people are willing to help, I will be one of them.
I'll also try creating commercial opportunities for the website - profitwise.

I'd usually say "This is not the place to post these kind of posts.. use the Q&A section".. which comes naturally nowadays..
but considering the importance of this... I think we need this thread bumped up until you manage to get what you wish for.

Yes, that would be great. You've given me an awesome idea. A team of people that can mointor and keep the site up and running well, and content updated etc.
I'll start making a list of people who want to become part of the team
And if you could get a commercial opportunity, that would be amazing. I'd be up for selling it as well (maybe). It's just I want to keep the site of my hands for a while. Because my dad died only a week ago, and i'm entering a state of depression, and I need to get out into the world and keep myself busy.
Thanks

Someone?
I really like this site, and would like to see it continue.
Nathan has done such great job on developing this site, it would be shame, to see it gone waste!
So anyone who has motivation and some time to take this site under ownership, please contact nathan!
Ps. I'm one of admins of this site, and can tell you that it's really easy to update site, because of the nathan's clever admin panel. I would do it myself if i had the time, but my studies and and other projects takes too much time.
All friends of this site, let's get this thread bumped until we get some help for nathan

Firstly.. i'm sorry. Be well.
Secondly, I have some connections.. I can't promise anything but i might be able to get some advertisments going.. we'll see how it goes.
Also, if manage to get some time off .. sometime.. I'll create flash banners and put them up.
COUNT ME IN.

Thank you allevant
And nir36 thanks again, that would be mucho appreciated! very generous

I'm willing to help...
But I'm not sure if I got any use thou as I got no tech experiences or running a website.
My best experience is being a gaming forum moderator and basic computer/pda knowledge.
But, if you think I'm a good canadiate please let me know as I would like to help in anyways.

You don't really need experience in running a site. As long as you can spend some time on the admin panel to add content, it's all good.
I've added you to the to-be team , hope you don't mind.

Thanks! future for the site is looking brighter this is just a bump post

I'll bump your bump

Dear Napbree,
I am an Application Consultant and actually my job consists of making corporate websites for government entities.
Websites I've done include (not exhaustive list)
http://www.infocommsingapore.sg/industry/
and
http://www.infocommsingapore.sg/games
Same domain but totally different things.
So do count me in if you need help running the website.
I am certified in JAVA (Have Sun Certified Java Programmer and Developer certs) and am proficient in both JSP and Applications.
Currently I am writing CMS based websites using PHP, CSS, HTML and Javascript.
I can definitely write some code to add more cool functionality to your website

I'll bumb your bumbing my bumb

Hi Kenshino,
Application consultant heh, nice!
At the moment, I will be able to code up new sections for the site, for example, the new update that will come sooner or later (when I have time to finish it), has live submission, which means users can instantly add applications, as long as it applies with a few of my automated checks.
But if you have any ideas, and you want to code them up, you can definately! But I wouldn't be able to give source code, but you can code it seperately and then I can incoroporate it nicely
Thank you lots for your interest
Nathan

Hey, I volunteer too. I am a PC administrator and had had success in hosting my own sites in the past as well as prior administration duties to games like http://www.swcombine.com

Sounds great
Added you to the list, I will contact you all in the future, once I have a nice big list of contributors
Thanks

let's keep this on top.

OFF TOPIC! Who want a Google Wave invite?

I've been accepted into the beta test for Wave, I have 3 invites left over. If you're interested, send me a PM and I'll determine if you're worthy.

Me, pm sent

pm sent
I'd like one. pm sent

if you could, I shall pm you my email? many thanks either way

I've got a bunch leftover as well. PM me. (and then help me get Zenulators 1.6 build working on my Vogue haha...)

Right, I'm out of invites now... those who got them, welcome to the fun. Those who didn't, be patient, I'm sure we'll all get more soon

google wave
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hi would really appreciate if anyone could send me a google wave invite thanks. [email protected] please would really appreciate it

I've started an Android "brain trust" wave so far... trying to get all the pertinent info we have her eon the forums onto another medium. Seems to be working so far. Do a search for Android braintrust, let me know what you find. Also if you could PM me your google wave address, I'll add you to my contacts and then to the Wave.

hello
I have a couple of friends who have received the google wave as well yet they haven't received extra invites to pass out, so I would be so appreciative if some one was to send me one, I would be glad to pm my gmail addy to whoever could send one, no worries either way, thank you.

Currently I use google docs with people in my company to manage documents and stuff. Once Wave gets developed and opened more I feel like we will probably move some of our stuff to that for collaboration.

hey if anyone gets more of the invites let me know, i have been itching to try it out i'll pm you my Gmail address

Unfortunately I have no invites to give out yet, but I'll keep XDA in mind. Here's a secret, a ton are being given away in the Wave subReddit.
Google Wave is slow, but usable in Android browser, even at 320x240. Has anyone else experimented with this?

Hey,
I was wondering if anybody had any Wave invites left, I know polyrythmic ran out but if anybody else could lend me a hand, that would be awesome.

i just got on wave i will let you know if i get any

I threw it on virtualbox. It's okay and a pretty neat concept for the older generation. It's kind of refreshing to see a Linux platform that's not the typical GDE or KDE interface and simplifies things. For me, I would never use it on a day to day basis but I can see where google was going. If anything, Ubuntu is still the main Linux platform opposed to Windows or Macs for everyday users.

the only thing i wished is that they didnt demand SSD, think of all the legacy equipment that cant run a newer operating system and is just planning on being thrown out, esp since they cant support alot of newer software.
things like that i hope the open source community would help in porting with, it will extend the life out of alot of computers

tallnerd pm me your email address

Samsung we know you are here

Can we please sign up for official beta testing froyo, we don't want cash just a free device every 2 years.
Lets make it official, sign on if you would like to be included
Please leave cynicism out of this thread.
Its cheap labour as it is

tbh i would test if for lot less NOW!

ten chars!!!

Are there beta testers for devices or android systems?
If not I am not sure why pc apps use beta testing and not android
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App

I'll be more than happy to try out any alpha & beta releases of any Android products
just being able to play with the latest and greatest is more than enough joy for me

Moved to General forum. The development forum is only for development threads. (Threads with actual development happening.)
Questions should always be in the General forums (or Q&A if your device has a Q&A forum.)

I would be very interested in testing for free devices

Add me to the list.
I'd love to do some beta testing!!!

안녕하세요 삼성. 저도 Beta 시험하고싶습니다. 많은 도움이될겁니다. Hi Samsung, I'd love to beta test any of your programs for the Galaxy S. I have the Vibrant from T-Mo. Thanks~
hope this works typed in Korean as well haha..

I'd test my brains out if you ask me. Count me in too
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App

You can definitely count me in

alpha testing Android 3.0 is also ok

I'm sure plenty of people around here would be interested in such a scheme, myself included! As to whether it would come to pass..

Seriously? Please? I think this thread needs a pretty epic dose of it.

It would be great if there was an employee of Samsung / HTC / other phone manufacturers as a contact point between the dev community and the manufacturers themselves.
Eg: to look through forums such as this, see what everyone's saying, keep us posted on news and dates and seek honest feedback from us.
The only people who look through XDA are those interested in modding and installing custom firmwares anyway, so regular consumers would gain the benefit of us testing the stuff out without them having to be aware of it.
Plus, one of the deciding factors of many enthusiasts when buying a new Android phone is the dev community and support, so you can guarantee they would gain at least a few more sales from those interested.

That will make them way too vurnerable and the benefits will never justify the costs. The game they play is how to make as much as profit as one can. From that perspective things are good if and only if the sales figures are good. So, for them, sales figures are all the feedback they need

If they did do such a scheme, it would be in Korea.

Hosting Rep for Roms, zips kernels etc

I have a web server that I no longer use. Plenty Gb's of storage and far to much bandwidth.
I wanted to create a website for developers who don't have websites to have a space to host a website and their creations. I also wish to turn it into a website that holds those backups of apps to restore. (think of that Super User upgrade that would FC constantly).
If anyone has any ideas or would like their work for android hosted/need a website or forum for their work pm me on here or email me at [email protected]
I have taken down the website entirely, cleaned out the storage and is now ready for this project if it ever gets off the ground.
If you have something you would like to be hosted or to have backups available pm or email me with the information of the creator (just in case permission is needed).
If you also know a developer and that he or she would like this offer or information just tell him/her to email [email protected]
Pretty much free hosting for the android community. Something I can do to help out those developers out there.
And a thank you to all those developers out there. Thank you for all your hard work.

Haven't seen you in a while, but thanks for this.

True I had a bunch of finals to deal with and then my grandfather past away. But my offer stands for pretty much the entire android community as long as it relates to development.
But I am back and ready to fill the XDA community with my helpful comments :}

Ultimate Note 5 Hybrid ROM Google Hangouts

For those of you who are interested in following me and keeping up with the progress of my rom projects here on XDA, I am on Google Hangouts. I have a general hangouts and my development only group on hangouts. However, due to the recent actions of select few individuals who purposely like to play child games by coming to my hangouts with the sole purpose of peeping through the window with no intentions of participating in friendly discussions and just to gather intel and go gossip in other hangouts by a so called "competitor", I am not currently adding new members to any of my hangouts. Until the childish games stop and things settle down, all of the sincere people who legitimately want to participate in my google Hangouts will have to wait until further notice.
For reasons that most of you are unaware of, some people think they need to "pick sides" and start trouble. I will not put up with this immature bunch of people who's sole intention is to stir up trouble. As you all know i am here with the sole purpose of helping people with their smartphones and providing a quality rom for your phones. There are unfortunately a small handfull of members here at XDA who have been running amuck and uploading stolen work from other honest developers. this is a fact and it is a problem. I have no control over these things but i can assure you that XDA and it's moderators will be doing the best that they can to address this issue the best way they can for the overall best interest of XDA. Honest, integrity and respect is something that i take seriously and i hope to see XDA maintain these qualities in their recognized developers and possibly implement new and improved rules and guidelines for developers in the near future. I will do what i can to give my input to the moderaters and hopefully they can come up with a solution to this problem once and for all. Untill then please follow my rom threads and participate in helping others if you can and just make youselves at home. Above all please have fun, enjoy your phones and be respectful to others in my threads. Thanks for reading!
Edit: My Google Hangouts invitation is now open. Please remember to PM me your gmail address so I can add you. And please also remember what i expect from everybody. No drama and no games. We have none of that now and it will stay that way. Feel free to talk about anything that you want just don't come to stir up trouble. that's all i ask. Thanks everybody.

Many thanks ror a great rom

Same here keep me in mind for new groups/testing. I would never steal work or cause trouble. All I want is to help make our note 4 the best it can be.
Sent from my SM-N920P using Tapatalk

Keep me in mind as well! I would love to help out with anything I can. No sides, no trouble, no immaturity.

Add me to this list too TX, love your work and wanna be a part of the group.

In for it

Hey guys, I figured those of us wanting to be a part of the new Hangouts crew could at least begin by having some development conversation here. My vote is that we use this thread for some not - so - repetitive questions and maybe TX will shoot some beta type issues for us to work on until all of the drama fades away.
We will just keep the conversation to development only and the TX will have a place to draw some new comers from for his hangouts when he is ready.
