Database Users

Thank you XDA Evo Forums!

Just wanted to drop a quick and very sincere thank you to the devs and the community here for the EVO. I purchased an EPIC for my wife and thus have been hanging out at the XDA Epic forums every now and then. It seems like constant drama and the lack of cooperation there is hindering development. It makes me appreciate all of you and all the devs here in the EVO forums. So thank you all! You are awesome and we all have created an incredible forum!

ya Epic is a mess.
The device wasn't ready for prime time & development lacks which is a misery combo that shows through out Epic community.
Hopefully Sammy wont blow them off like they've done to the entire S galaxy lineup

Holy cow - you guys weren't kidding! Was thinking about getting an epic for my wife, so I've been lurking in the epic forums to see what the deal was. The drama there is off the charts! The users actually hate the few devs they have, and treat them like crap! They think there's some big conspiracy, and that they're entitled to unreleased work from the devs (unreleased because they’ve stated that it’s likely they’ll brick their phones) - it's mayhem! Madness I tell you!
I'll be surprised if there are any devs left working on the epic in 3 months. Looks like one of the three major ones just left.
Thank you to all of the devs here on the evo side of the house - and the users and noobs, too, because even on our worst day, during the worst of times, even counting the Time Without Root, we were never that ridiculous, and still (for the most part) conducted ourselves respectfully, like adults.
Happy Thanksgiving all.
EVO FTW

To be spoken of only in the Stories of The Times That Were - in the hushed voices of the elders by the fire under the light of the full moon. So that even the young know what was. And what will be.
edit - now I need to watch beyond thunderdome again
seriously, though - much thanks all around - This forum is phenomenal.

He was #1 in Epic development .Those that gave him heck will now regret it.

Goodbye my Fellow Vibrant Owners and Devs

So First i like to say a big Thank You to all the devs in this vibrant section that made the phone 150% better than what it was. Thanks to atimn, Sombionix, Jellette, Whitehawkx, Birgertime, Neobuddy89, nickmcminn60, Explodingboy, cmenard, drhonk, kyrlon360, brick'd and a big Thanks to Eugene373 (For being such a great guy in general and great Developer/kerneler). If i forgot anyone my apologies, its been a pretty long time here and i seen devs come and go. My main reason for leaving is Tmobiles service hasn't gotten any better where i live, seems to me it just got worser, ie: slower data and more dropped calls. So my and my G/F got tired of it and are switching to Verizon. Really glad to see the Vibrant getting some Ice Cream Sandwhich love from the great devs here, I really am loving the Passion rom and its excellent. Hope it gets better for you guys. Til next time....i'll be lingering around this section still though.

Good luck, man!

This forum is awesome

Have fun with the Nexus! (I'm assuming that's what you'd be getting right?)

Thanks everyone, Yeah me and my G/F will be getting the Galaxy Nexus and the HTC Rezound.

wife or gf?!

G/F for now were still young but been together for 6 yrs. But i call her my wife even though were not technically married. Man that Passion v7 seems to just keep getting better.

its been fun

I know I havent been particularly active in this subforum lately because there wasnt much to update on the touchwiz front
but anyway, just wanted to say goodbye to those that are left...my parents took the leap into smartphones recently and i gave them my fascinate and og inc to use (so i can snag their upgrades when needed)
so while i had promised that on the small chance another ota dropped for verizon id update resurrection and superclean...that small chance just went to 0 w/o a phone to work with
the fascinate was the first android phone i had that i actually did anything for...starting with porting themes back in the fall of 2010 alongside retrokidd, thatdudebutch, et all...before eventually moving on to roms and mods
most of the people in the android world im friends with were because of this phone, so i look back on this time fondly and hope to see most of you around in the future when our paths cross on other phones (sgs3?)

thanks for everything! you've been a great help and a great dev.

Big thanks from us CSpire Showcase guys... you helped us out a LOT along the way!! Hope paths do cross again on other phones...

Tip of the hat and many thanks, SC3 was superb.

Farewell for now, my friend. Thank you for everything. I hope to see you soon in the GS3 subforums.

You are definitely a beast man. Thanks for everything!
~~~~There is no spoon~~~~

Thanks for everything, man. I lost my rom-ginity to SC3.

thanks for all you have done!!! you and a few other devs really helped me alot when i was a noob!!

Thanks for all the great work. And for all the laughs.

I first met you on another forum and I had to leave Verizon for financial reasons. My business was getting worse so money was tight. I remember when i said my goodbyes you were very kind and wished me good luck...I wish you all the same my friend.

thanks for everything nitsu been following ya' since the DJ05/DI03 days good luck with everything

Good luck and thanks for everything. Looking forward to more of your work, hopefully Verizon will get the S III and let the tweaking begin !

You breath life into the fascinate when verizon/samsung left it in the dark with updates. I was in froyo months before it was release by v, I was on gingerbread again months before v put it out, all thanks to you.
To your credit also, I have tried everything, from miui to cm7 and the lastest aokp and asop roms. I keep coming back to your tsm 2 rom, it is a jewel of stabilty and functionality.
thanks for your hard work, and the countless hours of coding. I will see you in a better place, called samsung fascinate 3.

We can't thank you enough. Your legacy lives on. As long as Fascinates continue to function, you will have fans and followers.

Thanks for everything bro. I've seen your posts all over the place and they are always helpful.

Sincere thanks and appreciation for all you've done. I hope our paths cross again.

Thanks man.. My upgrade has been up since October but I'm holding out for SG3 and I'm hoping it's gonna drop soon in the next month or two..
To be honest, the Fascinate turned out to be a great phone once most of the kinks were worked out, with much of that credit going to all the developers working on giving functioning ROMs..
I'm in no rush to leave just yet, haven't been brave enough to flash to AOKP ICS..
So in ending, I'm not saying goodbye, more like see you soon in another forum banging out some cool themes and ROMs for our future phones!

Thanks for everything nitsuj17. There was a while there where it looked like we'd be faced with a decision between Froyo GB ROMS or going with one of the AOSP offerings. While I liked what they had to offer (and great things continue to be worked on) I found myself wishing for some of the things I missed from TW (such as the camera app and media players) and just plain stability.
You came through with exactly what I wanted. Previous to now my favorite time on the Fascinate was with SC2 and now with SC3 I really don't feel I need to change a thing. On one hand I'm sad that I won't be tinkering around as much (because everything just works and works very well), but on the other I have a pretty sweet device (what turned out to be one thanks to yours and other's work). I think if the Fascinate dropped with this software it would not be the butt of jokes re: Bing and the GPS issues.
I think when it comes time to upgrade (soon ...) a big deciding factor will be where you and people like sbrissen end up. Cheers!
*PS If your parents have an issue do you make them submit a logcat? j/k
What are you using till you upgrade? Inc2?

Thank you for giving us great ROMs to make our phones run the way they should've in the first place. Your comments were always right on. Thanks for your work on TSM and SuperClean!

Good-Bye Hero hello GS3

These past 2 years with this phone and on this forum were great. This old hero was like a tank anything I through at it never stopped it just ket on going. I wanted to thank all the people who created all thes great roms and also the people who helped maintain my phone for the past two years. This is a great community and hopefully some of you are going to the Galaxy S3 too.

Sad to see you leave. You should do I what i did and keep my hero lol. I can't say a fair well. Although my evo shift is nice, there are still Roma on here that aren't on my evo. This is why I keep my hero lol. Its like my lil iPod when I have joyos on it =P

Same here. I got a Galaxy Nexus unlocked. I will always remember the HTC Hero as my first smartphone and what I cut my teeth on for hacking.

galaxy s3 is awesome, now even better with jb

Well it was a fun...

Couple of years playing with the Evo 4G, no regrets owning one of the best devices of it's time. But like all good things, it had to come to an end? Nah, in this case it just got better! I'm now a proud owner of a Samsung Galaxy S III and couldn't be happier with it. Just wanted to stop in and thank all of the great Evo 4G Developers I've gotten to know a bit over the past year or so. You've made it a great time to learn Android inside and out and then some.
I'll now be poking around the GSIII forums, but I don't plan to root my new toy anytime soon. But I do love keeping up on things so I'll be around! Thanks everyone!

I I'm right there with you. I had my evo for 2 years and it has taught me so much. I have learned a lot from that great phone. But a week ago I also got an s3. It truly is amazing. I rooted it less then 3 hours after I got it. Thanks evo developer's for all your hard work and keep up the good work.

Same here man. I'm switching to an unlocked Galaxy Nexus though. Prepaid options are a much better option for an about to graduate student like myself. But I'm sure as hell going to miss my OG Evo. Even at two years old, she can still run with the best of them. And that's all I ever really asked for. A huge thank you to all the devs that have kept and will keep this pup relevant for a long time!

Goodbye!
Also people need to stop posting these threads, no one needs to know you changed phones..
