While we may eventually get root, it seems like you will never get proper english.
Just joking of course...

-.- i fail to spell check and copypasta <---- is how i intended to spell it

I hope so, otherwise I'll probably jump on the Shift Evo bus. Since I got this EVO new when I changed from T-Mobile to Sprint, I can try to change it.

I asked him if I could donate any money to him for his efforts; I hope he didn't take that as me being pushy. He'd mentioned that money was tight earlier, and I thought I'd help pay him for his time.

For those of you who indicated that you wanted to donate to agrabren: his PayPal account email is [email protected].

I am sure we could point him at these folks:

They already have a bounty going for Root

I'm not talking about the bounty im talking about just giving him some cash cuz he sez money is tight and has 2 kids I'm gonna drop 25 when I get paid he has helped us in the past and seems to be a nice guy and a good dev

I prefer to support his voluntary effort to get it done than dangle a carrot in his face. Even if he doesn't eventually get root for the EVO, his work has earned him a couple meals at Hooters on me.

Donation Etiquette

Just out of curiosity, is there a standard or general amount people donate to developers? Is any amount too small? Like, if you were to donate a few dollars, would that be frowned upon, or is literally any amount cool?
Im sure anything is appriciated! I have donated $1 - $5

This ^
No amount is too small and is always appreciated.
Think of it like an app in the market with a free version and a paid version. You try it out for free and really like what you have so you're willing to pay 1-5 bucks for the paid version just because. There is no reason why donations to devs can't also work on the micropayment method.
I was surprised to find people were donating to me... I've had everything from $2 up to $15.... I've personally given from $5-$20 to developers/themers.
I think the general rule is, if you want to donate a penny, you are a good person and it would not be frowned upon.
This is a good question. I've also wondered the same in the past.
I like to think i'm buying the team or person (whoever does that particular release) a 6-pack ($6-$8). Then i go buy me a 6-pack and i flash away!

I think it's what you can afford and how much enjoyment that person has brought to you and your phone. It use to be called buy me a pepsi
There is no amount too small, even not donating at all is fine!
Cool, thanks for your answers everyone I'm really in awe at the smarts of the developers on here. I think it would be awesome to have an XDA convention where we could all hang out and talk about phones! ... Unless something like that exists already and I'm just way slow!

A lot of people just wanna know what went down. What's happened happened so what difference would it make.
cd's or tapes?
I think he's a cool dude, agreed with the other poster that he's the "least understood". He'll be back He's said he was going to leave before and stuck around. He'll be here.
isn't this his 3rd or 4th time?

I for one, will miss him. He helped me tremendously with my theming. I hope he makes his return when everything settles down
Well all this is going to definitely change things....
k0nane... Out? Gone for good? We don't know.. Only time will tell...
Mystery... Same as above...
Dreamsforgotten, last I talked to k0nane personally on the night of the ACS/INC start he told me Dreams was knee deep in smali code (theming) for the Nexus 4g..
So we definitely have a lot of important pieces missing to the big Epic 4g puzzle... I sure hope one day they all come back so we can finish this picture.
We still have some great themers and developers, plus many new in the last month or so up and comers that have made a great impact on the scene so we are going to all have to pull together and do the best with who/what we have. Everything will be fine.
Now more than ever everyone needs to work together, hand in hand and share to make future GB and the last of EC05 development the best it can be for the Epic 4g.
Thread cleaned. No flaming please. Thank you.

Just for the record, whoever you are have no reason to be "scared" or anything like that by contacting me. Obviously we don't care that you're rooting your phone since we've helped you everytime, it's just getting to the point that someone seriously needs to help you out. As I said before, it'll benefit both of us.
And by the way, I'm not the same tech that you've talked to face to face. I'm an epic user unlike him.

Just edit the OP, and have the user PM you, that way it stays private and allows the user to not have to come forward publicly. Honestly though, if the user does see this, there's no reason to be embarrassed... we were all unfamiliar with how to do this stuff at one point or another (Im still not great at it, but good enough to get by), and learning how to do so is nothing to be ashamed of.

[Off Topic] Answer to ccrows

So that's it huh? You're officially done with the Atrix...
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
My work on the atrix was over the day we push the first stable cm7. Since them I've been working on Rom Factory (formerly Fruit Cake Maker), and today I'm working on fixing the cheesecake app for you guys. I am selling one of my atrix that's for sure. but i own 2 of them. so i def still have one and will continue to play with it. Once an ics official is available i will release a fruit cake for it and what not. but in my capacity as a dev, i will def not continue work on my ninja rom, and prob wont be very active on the forum.
Because of school and work I don't really have the time to explore and hack devices like I did a year back. Not too mention the increase cost of devices and being broke does not help me stay modern. My aging computer can't handle compiling much longer and my atrix, well, you saw the picture of my daily atrix, the screen is broken. I still continue work on an effort to boot webtop from cm7, which even tho i know better, i keep trying in hopes of coming up with a good workaround.
It's important as an user and dev to keep track of the milestones of a device. The Atrix was def a hard device to work with but as a community we have come far. Just to mention a few of the accomplishments of this community.
The atrix dev team (only here you will find 6+ devs willing to give up all their time to work together for the same goal)
International Bootloader Unlock (30+ people participated the night the unlock was discover, thats pretty amazing, and all of them are just as equally responsible for the unlock being found as steven25b or me.)
CM7 (may I mention one of the fastest put together cm7 ever, nearly 900 downloads in one day [im sure gs3 got more in one day but boo them])
Early Motorola Photon help. (they don't like to admit it, but we help the photon community massively. the2dcour even put a nice pudding together for them.)
My point is, as a dev, i know this community got it going right. I feel like i can help on other ways. And i def need a new challenge (phone) to keep me entertain. LOL beyond the fact that i need a new development phone, for app deving. Plus, if you miss me just drop me a line, I'm one friendly mofo, I'll answer and help, and if you are near me, let's go have a beer.
