Will we make it?

Bin4ry quitted the forums although he wanted to crack the Bootloader but do you think we will make it whitout him? I feel like no but we will see
Sent from my X10i using XDA Premium App

The developers here did enough without opening the bootloader, so my guess is everything is fine here ( most ROMs here are completed with camera fix ) what more do you want?
And quitted is not the word, he just went into another project.. another challenge

I think we should start another thread about whether to start another thread about this topic

for 2.2 froyo roms, they are basically completed
for 2.3 gingerbread ones, we just have to wait for the gingerbread update (official) so we can use the kernal and drivers available to make them stable.
I don't think our devices will make it to ice cream though..

Lol agreed!
Anyways, I feel if one of the other devs ask him for help he will....so I don't think he will be gone completely

Uuh ice cream :9
I think Z,J and all great devs are able to port it... when it's released ^^
Sent from my X10 using XDA Premium App

Mj what you said is true most roms are complete but there is still more things we can do for example 16 millions color thingy and the device is locked to 32 fps and i'd love to overclock my device and for some people facing the low in call volume issue a fix and all these would be done by unlocking the Bootloader.

i heard if someone updates to the new and official 2.3 it wil make it even harder to crack the bootloader me personaly i wont update to 2.3 beacause i can use other better roms such as cm7 and arc rom

That's the first I've heard of anything bootloader related to SE's 2.3.3. It might be possible to infer that but otherwise nothing is publicly known. *Maybe* rooting it might be more difficult.
2.3 kernel + CM7 mod >> 2.1 kernel + CM7 Mod
Just IMO (might be different but we won't know until July)

I think we should aware something:
1)Bin4ry doesn't crack the bootloader cause the cracking is...hell
What Tue devs do is to crash the normal booting procredures in order to run our custom kernel(the kexec method)
2)I still blieve that we can soon run custom kernel for daily use
Z is trying his best to do that,he had got the radio,overclockint etc,this will be released once the kernel is ready.
The leaving of Bin4ry is a kind of lost,but it doesn't mean it wont be possible to develop the custom kernel
Cheers,

I hope z will make it and yeah its hell of a loss he made alot for us like the flashtool sad loss anyways cant wait for the custom kernel being released!!!!

Bin4ry is a beast, but don't forget about the other devs!! And Bin4ry says hes gonna stay if we donate $200 to him.

Lol hes gonna get more then that if he actually manage out that custom kernel! And this is sad he wants money for his work like most devs but if he really asked it like this "pay me 200$ and i will stay" its eww!

Tottaly agree, plus that if j, z or any other dev need some help from bin4ry he helps as fas far as he can.

Didn't mean to make Bin4ry look bad check out this:

erm....that is not the case at all.....Andreas (Bin4ry) is actually saying that he does not feel comfortable with the OP of the thread requesting that money is collected for him. Bin4ry did NOT request the $200 at all.....
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=12466249&postcount=11
just want to make that clear.

Yea I realized that I made him look bad, but Bin4ry actually feels uncomfortable with the situation
My bad I worded that badly

It have been cracked by z!!!!!!! Omfg no kidding i saw a comment in the cm7 rom thread where it said z have made it + there was link of the thread omg!!!!

Do YOU think I deserve a recognised developer status?

Right, after making an ICS port to the wildfire and my darkforestROM, as well as three kernels and a few apps, xda haven't accepted my developer request.
Before I get the ranting it takes them long to do it, I put it in last week, and the backlog cant be that bad.
If they don't see me as a developer, then fine, but that doesn't mean everyone won't.
Probably because I have only been on this forum two weeks, but who should judge what time you have to wait to be a developer?

The commitment and help you have given us for our ICS ROM I would definitely call you a recognized developer.

Thanks for your play tweaks app. You are a developer and will be recognised soon. Thanks again

It is my understanding that there is a couple weeks lag time in the process, and they do them in batches. I wouldn't be surprised if the process were slowed a bit by the holiday season, as well. Just be patient.

I agree with everyone. You SHOULD be seen as a developer. Loving the tweaks app and the CDMA Kernel. Plus just all the help and feedback you have provided. You have been here two weeks but I have yet to see a thread that doesn't have your feedback in it. You have been very helpful to many here myself included, and I thank you for that. You will get recognition that I am sure of.

Yes +10 chars

Seeing how you developed an app that i use on my phone i certainly would say so.

do you know the criteria which they use to make the decision?
anyway who are they?

It's too bad, I totally agree with everyone and your tweaks and ROM have been amazing. You are one of those we can rely on for help. No matter what u are one of the best devs here.

I disagree, I believe you should be a member of the forums for 184 days before they even allow you to apply for dev status.

Pfft! KieranFTW don't even bother listening to Dudeness83 he doesn't recognize the skills. I agree you should have dev status you've brought us a sweet rom, kernel, and awesome tweaks all in a short period of time! And your fast to reply to any kind of problems that users run into
Sent from my R800a using XDA App

I understand that you're a bit miffed, but... Give it some time. The recognized developer thing implies that you're recognized by the XDA people too... And with two weeks, it may be a bit too soon. I am a forum moderator and previous admin, I know I can't assess people in a couple of Weeks.

The recognised developer system has nothing to do with if XDA considers you a compitant developer. It's more like a mark of achevement. Just keep going, keep working hard and you will get there. It takes time though. Look at the top devs like Leedroid, he has like 10 rom and kernel threads on the go at once.

LoL at that.
As soon as ICS comes out officially on the wildfire, I will be getting a good system dump and removing bloat, as well as adding tweaks.
Will call it Darkforest ROM 4.0 ICS
Having few custom roms here is a good one, gives me plenty of space to make more

I want to say many many thanks to the members and devs here in the x8 forums, thanks for making my tiny X8 more powerful and awesome to use...
but im sad to say im leaving you all behind now as ive upgraded my phone to the Galaxy S2.. and ive just flashed the official ICS and all i can say is that its sooooo worth it.
For people in the UK i strongly recommend going for the £30 a month contract on 3uk, u get the phone free and i get all u can eat data and enough txts n minutes to last me...
Ive still got my X8 so ill be popping in and out to have a play but now my new home is over at Galaxy S2 HQ.
Extra Big thanks to Paul-xxx doixhan, racht, nAa, alfs and the other people who have put in hard work for us seeking a better life for our phones.... MUCH LOVE . PEACE

I think he was referring to the fast pace in which the mobile industry is going. Like, you know...ant years or somethin' like it... ha
On the other hand...
yes, i bought my x8 (the black one) last year in june after my old one got stolen, and i was short on cash, so i bought it with the promotion they had at 3 (three), it was 49 euros without any subscription...planned to change it after a while, but it was ok, and with all the possibilities the android world brings, didn't really feel the need to change it.
but...still...planning on upgrading to defy+ but not sure if it's worth it for now...

My x8 is 3 months old

Farewell from me.

Well after playing with the galaxy note i bought for my gf a few days ago, i decided i couldn't take it any longer so i went to phones 4 u and asked what they could do for me. They have paid what i had left on my contract 7 months early for me and given me a galaxy s2 for free on a £20.50 p/m orange contract.
Not a bad deal i don't think.
I'll still pop in every now and then though as i still have a wildfire at home and dont want to get rid of my introduction to android, thanks to everyone that has shared anything i used and for teaching me how to get the best out of my phone.

Mate, that was quick lol. The itch took over quicker than i expected. Sg2 is prob my realistic expectation too and for about the same £pm but on 3. Keep in touch mucca and all the best with the new toy. Its gonna be like losing an arm

I was just about to post another thread but oh well
Yesterday I received my HTC One S on contracts, 25.92 p/m for 12 months, 260 or something upfront.D) I've always loved Willy, he is the best legend to date and I don't think I can sell him
Being with Willy has been a rollercoaster, I learnt about rooting through it, my first two roots were with two Wildfires. I couldn't take Sense anymore, so I got CM7, and then eventually we got CM9!! (Well done to Erwin, if I can find his donation link I will most definitely donate)
I'll still hang around on the CM9 thread and a few others, though now I'll mostly post on the One S forums, hope to see you guys there

cya

Congrats! See ya around on the S2 section!

Bye scratch and thanks to all your work.
We'll all definitely miss you here

Thanks everyone and Congrats on the one s mate, hope you enjoy it as much as i am the s2. I thought id wait a little while before rooting but ended up rooting it today, its a bit confusing reading all the info but i ended up doing it in 3 and a half minutes without even touching my pc........
First flashed temp cwm from stock recovery, then flashed supersu to get root, after that boot into recovery and flashed siyah kernel. Full cwm, root and plenty of tweaks to play with. Just need to decide on a Rom now.
Oh...... The note is a real beast of a phone, hope you have big hands our lass doesn't.

Thanks everyone and scratch, I haven't managed to root mine yet - we don't have Revolutionary yet, and I'm scared if I root it using HTCDev they won't take my phone in for service if I ever need it. And there aren't many ROMs, most are Sense 4.0 based, except for the Alpha 10 CM9 port!
