Database Users

A huge thank you to all of you.

Hello,
Thanks to all your generosity I have reached my target and was able to order the U8800. It should be with me in the next few days. I look forward to working on bringing you CM7.
Thanks,
Jacob

Hello,
You may have seen me posting in the past couple of days about getting a U8800, and trying to help out a little bit. I work on CyanogenMod and maintain the HTC Wildfire and ZTE Blade builds. I'd really love to work on the U8800, but unfortunately, there is not a lot I can do for the U8800 until I get one for myself. I have tried developing for a device without actually owning it before, and it's something I'd rather not go through again.
As such, I plan to purchase a U8800 as soon as I can, but I'm only 17 and my part time job really doesn't pay me much. It could take me 2-3 months before I have enough to buy one.
I was wondering if any of you would be interested in donating towards a device? I hate to ask, but I really want to help you guys out and it's the only way I can see it realistically happening any time soon. I promise that any money which gets sent to my paypal (link in my signature) will be used solely for a U8800, and I promise that I'll get you a properly working CyanogenMod 7 build as soon as I can once I get the device.
Thanks in advance to anybody who is willing to donate,
Jacob

I wouldn't mind tossing 20 € to you, but might be at the end of this month, as then I get paid.
I hope more people help you out !

Can you update here in the post how much you have left to your goal? Would be nice to see. How much does a U8800 cost in GB?
Can donate $10 to you some time next week

A crisp tenner on the way mate, appreciate anything you can do
Come on fellow owners, we've got to raise 173 GBP: http://www.carphonewarehouse.com/mobiles/mobile-phones/HUAWEI-U8800/HANDSET, well 163 now

Awesome, much appreciated

I've added a post on the NZ www.geekzone.co.nz forums too as this phone is a big seller over here so hopefully a few kiwi dollars heading your way

Problem with this is I already donated money on the CM website with a not saying it was for Ideos X5 port
So if you can take funds out of that.... otherwise bit expensive for me to donate twice

Just donated 10GBP.

i'd like to give you ￥100 donation,but i'm chinese,we can't use paypal in our country.do you have another way?

Sweet man. $10 (or more accurately £10) is on its way to you. Can't wait for some CM7 lovin' on this mighty wee phone!!
Will an official U8800 device support page be added to the Cyanogen Mod supported devices page?

I'm surprised to know that you are only 17.
Keep the good work going. Just donate 10 GBP to express my appreciation

I hear you get 150 for your evo so final price is I guess based on how much sprint gives you the phone for on an upgrade.

I feel so sorry for all these devs who are investing in the ****tie 3D but fail to realize when new releases from Sprint comes later in July to September, it'll blow their kiddie spy phone out the water. Plus they just blew their upgrade. . oh well.
Farewell devs, you've been well appreciated.
Stop saying goodbye, just leave.

Why copy and paste this crappy statement in the threads over and over?
Chubbz thanks for all you brought to the EVO and all you will bring to the 3d.
The 3d is far from a crappy phone. I really hope you stop using other devs work with this attitude. Honestly, you can't comprehend the amount of time it takes to develope a ROM you use free... And if a dev wants to say good bye to those who they have become friends with, let them. Certainly don't appreciate or need comments like this around here. What have you contibuted? Thought so.

I'm at my 1 year upgrade but they said is only $75 off the retail price so it will cost my $475 plus I have to sign a 1 year contract. Also I'm on my 4th replacement in a month but they also won't let me switch to another phone since they say none is comparable....i talked to management and fought and fought for an hour and for nothing.....
Also didn't know they did trade-ins either, no one at Sprint offered me that....

Yes devs contribute a lot and we praise each one of them just the same but why do you all have to post a thread each just to wish farewells. I get it may be said out of respect but i dont know. Plus sometimes I feel as if some devs takes advantage from us with their "buy me a beer" attitude. Believe me, I'm all for giving praise where place is due but I can live just fine without rooting or a rom, live moves on.
Anywho, like i said. Farewell

I figure this is a xda forum between friends, and I have enjoyed these threads just for the "human element" they contain. We all appreciate the labor of love that developers put into their roms, and when they feel the desire to say goodbye to their friends, acquaintances, and flash addicts it is good for the community.
IMO, ignoreance is greater than dissidence.

Just got off the phone with my local corporate store:
I'm eligible for the 1-year upgrade discount (currently 1 year into my 2 year contract). So, if I was looking into getting the 3D right now, it'd be 550-150 (Evo trade-in credit) - 75 (1-year upgrade credit) = $325 + Contract renewal for the 3D. Think I'll wait for a drop in price. Either that, or flip the EVO on Craigslist.

I have been here on xda for awhile so I received alot of knowledge from the devs and flashers so I decided to say thanks and move on to bigger and better things. The reason why ppl put a donation or buy me a beer link is because ppl asked for a link it not required.
Thanks all.

thanx Chubbz,thanx Leo,thanx to all the devs.This is what owning an Android phone is all about.These guys push our devices as far as they can go.They give us variety at the cost of their time and money.Its a cycle,waiting for more and better.

Thanks for every dev and people that had helped me!

I'm leaving the htc hd2 community I didn't develop anything but I made this thread to thank every developers that has changed my life with my htc hd2 from hell to heaven
I can't donate since i dont own a credit card or any money for that matter
I am moving to samsung galaxy s2! Maybe i will see someone there!
again Thank you so much for making my htc hd2 feel worth the 440 pounds that i spent on it

Good that you are thanking the people who made it for yur HD2. Just to nit pick, you buy a Galaxy S2, but don't have money to donate?!
(No, I am not the king of donating, like I said, just nit-picking )

No big deal guys. Just put a few hundred hours of work into the ICS sources and it will probably work on the Legend. Or rather not.

Hey Ali Ba please tell me that you will keep your great work on our device, please tell me yes! You're our only hope.

he won't 10cha

surely we're all near the end of our 24 month contracts anyway aren't we? I'll get a new phone soon and it's not as though ICS will bring us too many advantages that CM can't bring us

I think we will need more mhz guys.. at least 800 ?

Nope, if it run 2.3, it will run 4.0. As google said.

The problem is that HTC don't give our device driver, and as I understand it is a big work to adapt ics without htc driver. Specialy when samsung and sony give everything.
Please Ali Ba tell us you don't give up. :'(

I still don't get why people always think it's sufficient to wave some (most of the times ridiculously low amounts of) money in the air to make everyone dance to their music.
Fact is, you won't be able to afford paying a developer full time. You won't find a good guy that is not trying to rip you off, believe me. And, you won't understand the Open Source community if you continue thinking that you can fix everything with money.

Thank you for you support, but I don't think that this is necessary. I'm not asking anyone for donations, I'm doing it for the fun and I never did it for the money.
In fact the sum of all donations I got from a few much appreciated supporters do not even make up for the price of my Legend (not even half of it). Not that I don't enjoy a beer now and then, but to earn my living I have to do other things.

That was a noble answer form ali baba. I wish all developer think like you and also have HTC Legend so that we get ICS taste on "OLD" Legend.

A Recognized Contributor Leaving the Xperia Play

Hey guys i will be leaving the xperia play section tommorow/next day
I have just ordered a brand new LG G2 32GB in Black and it should be here tommorow.
I registered on XDA in 2011 on my birthday 20th novermber... I have had the xperia play since that day and now its time to move on. TO THE AWESOME LG G2 !!!
It's been great here in the xperia play section and i hope to see some of you in the LG G2 section
Thanks for all your support.
Bye guys.
PS Any one wanna buy a Xperia Play? Mint condition - UK Only!

We are sad to see you go but completely understand. The LG G2 is a sweet device. I am sure you will love it. Best of luck and thank you for everything you have done for the Xperia PLAY forum.

Thank you for your efforts dude, you deserve to be a Recognized Contributor, wish the best for you.

Your birthday is same as mine, 20th November 0___0 . Anyway, I am going to miss you, even though I don't know about you much. Good bye and I am pretty sure everyone here on this Xperia Play Section gonna miss you too. Farewell and take care dude.
P.S Congrats on getting a new phone

Not sure yet, We will see. Might continue it on the LG G2 and Xperia Play (decided to get lg g2 over nexus 5) or i might open source it (code is messy be warned) and let others deal with it
I am hoping to get around £70 or a little more with a samsung class 6 16gb micro sd card, but offers are welcome (paypal is preffered payment method)
I still have the box, and it has had a case on all this time, barely any marks only slight wear on the gamepad part where the phone slides. and a few light marks on the sides, i will include case, charger plug (with a usb cable but its a bit dodgy, most people should have a micro usb cable by now though), Screen is mint condition. The only thing it won't include is the stock ear phones (or any) as i broke the stock sony earphones.
According to my research £70 is a average price. I also have 2 apk's from gameloft for 9mm and moderncombat (can't remember which number)
Any questions please ask, Contact me here or on my live chat on my kitchen Additionaly pm me skype and i will chat on there (no headset though it broke.)
oh and i will install any ROM that is on my kitchen before selling , Currently running super jelly bean 7.0 with lupus multiboot v8.
Oh and its factory unlocked to all networks, and is a unbranded model. and official bootloader unlock method was used.
i would upload pictures but i have no decent camera, I use my xperia play as a camera and obviously i can't use that to take pictures of the xperia play, LOL, in 2 days i will have my G2 and i can upload pictures then.
Oh and its the black r800i model. GSM!

another great dev of xperia is leaving
hope you be happy with your g2
any way i wanted to buy a g2 too but im more interested in nexus 5 because of great google support
have nice days with your new phone

Thanks for all of your hard work. Xplay wouldn't be what it is now without you.

Yeah although i never really developed anything for the actual xperia play i did develop various tools for use with the xperia play
The g2 was only £50 more than the nexus 5 and it has better battery and a ton of features, and is in stock! also although no official android 4.4 as of yet it will hopefully get it eventually, if not then thats what XDA is for.
