So I decided to start this tread for all of us that are addicted to flashing Roms thanks to Eugene, Master, Heathens, and specially Team Whiskey.
I got my first taste of a Froyo Rom back in October and I've been hooked like a crack addict! Lol!
Although I've never tried crack I can only image how they feel!
I check in with my XDA app more than I do my girlfriend, waiting and hoping for that new Rom to flash just to get that fresh Rom high! Lol!
Any themes that come up I flash just because I have a need to flash something.
Team Whiskey has the best stuff so anything new from them I just gotta have. I can only imagine what I'm going to do when they have Gingerbread for my phone!
They say the first steps to recovery is to admit you have a problem and to identify the source!
My name is Victor and I'm a flash -aholic thanks to my Vibrant and all the developers at XDA.
So the rest of you guys just like me admit your addiction so you can feel better and we can all work on our problem together!

You know you have a problem when you over hear a person saying "Oh he was flashing"........ and you think of a ROM......... instead of a naked person

I'm just a crack addict for 2.2 final. Then I'll probably go back to lurking again for 2 years.
Lol.... I bought a netbook so when I was on vacation if I bricked my phone flashing it I could odin it... no I am not addicted..
the first sign of addiction is denial, I ain't denying anything.

I'm with you Brother
Hi, my name is Paul and I too am a flashaholic. I'm so glad that someone had the courage to help us all try to get on the road to recovery. My addiction has caused me to lose time, dignity and self esteem. I am ashamed of my repetitive behaviors and always wanting to seek a new high. I have sought after fantasy speeds and lagfix numbing for years now and I want to stop but I can't!!!!! Hopefully I will now have the motivation to do so by knowing that other XDA brothers and sisters are having the same struggles. Thank you all!!!!!
BTW, just flashed M10 RC1, nice...can't wait for the next update
Paul just want to let you know that we are all here for you, together we can get through this! Lol!
How's Rc1 compared to Nero 4, I've been waiting for them to make it more stable!

I know that M9 was the fastest ROM that I have ever used on the Vibrant. Not knocking TW or Eugene, but that **** is so snappy, even before voodoo.
So M10 should only be faster.

Its more addicting than sex
In the past four days I have flashed nero 4, 4.1. M9,M10, pepperkake, and modded and morphed all of them fully.
Running nero 4.1 + DoW now, and I'm thinking about modding gingerclone and M10 beta 4 with dragon and DoW kernals.
Nero+DoW *vibrant*
I'm Glensta - Newcomer flash-a-holic. Since the vibrant came out, I've bricked a total of 6 vibrants. I returned 4 to 1 store, telling them "I don't know what happened?" Then that store refused anymore returns, so I found a different store that'd take back my 5th vibrant.....Finally, my 6th vibrant came from t-mobile cust. svc with some routine questions being asked by the rep. Now I'm good at "download" mode finally.
I did use one of my family member's upgrade (hell - they said they won't use it - so why not) and bought me a little cheapie phone just in case I brick again.
Flashing's fun w/ friends
Hi, my name's Steven, and I've been a flash-a-holic for about a year, when I first met that green robot Andy. Currently I'm waiting for a fix for the FFC so I can mod my phone even more. (Pretty sure I'll be the only one in my city with a FFC on my Vibrant 3G[It's like Samsung's copying the Apple what with releasing the Vibrant 4G, so mine's the 3G])
I do flash back and forth thou, I have like three different rom in sd card and I do it during my aviation class time! Not addicted though just fun hehe

The real name is not Flash-aholic, this was called Obsessive-ROM Updating Disorder Join the Group LOL.
I'm not sure what I am. I flash my own phone. Don't get enough of it so I talk people at my work to let me flash their phones. Then as I am doing support for phones and applications on the phone, I am encouraged to flash and learn more stuff....

I like it a lot. Unfortunately my sole criteria in evaluating a ROM anymore is how long it takes until I get my first random shutdown. I'm now into the end of a second full day and knock on wood, it has not turned off yet. The speed, with Voodoo, is comparable or faster than Axura. The one 2.2 incarnation series I have never used is Nero, for whatever reasons, not sure? The aesthetics are fine for me. I know the thread has said there's an issue with the "Ambient Launcher" which I do not use anyway, so, it's great in my opinion. I'm not sure I read anything about any other issues. RC2 apparently is now out, but I am staying put on the "it ain't broken" theory. I may not even try 2.3 when it comes out. I'm hoping to be cured from the addiction by then (yeah, right).
Ever since i figured out how to break into my perfected SPL mytouch3g, I can't help but check the various forums for just another ROM to try. I now have a haxsung vibrant as my main with my mytouch 3g(super-F) in my coat pocket just for such an emergency..
This rom has turned into my favorite. I've got a backup of v3, and this. Seems to be all I need but I do enjoy seein the other versions and how they compare.

Hey everyone,
I was just curious (and a noob so forgive me), I have been noticing a lot of developers switching off to other phones with the departure of jt1134 and the disappearance of ccampos.
Could the Samsung Fascinate's end of life be near? I know there are still developers working but lets face it, the Fascinate isn't as popular as it once was now with the Galaxy Nexus and the Droid Razr.
Well anyways post your thoughts if you agree or disagree that the Fascinate's death is close at hand or not.
Considering my old Eris still has support, I doubt it. Many people won't be due for an upgrade until later this year into early next year, plus the hardware is still very good. JT/sbrissen have done quite a bit of work, and since the Fascinate is a CM supported device we'll see that continue as well.
Sent from my SCH-I500 using Tapatalk
I hope support stays around for the fascinate for a while. The fascinate is a great phone and i don't plan on changing phone as long as i can keep my fassy up and running.
Completely disagree, literally 4 new ice cream sandwich ROMS were released in the passed two days. Check the development thread...
Sent from my SCH-I500 using xda premium
What has been the case historically with older phones such as the Eris that sarkozy mentioned? I would hope that as old developers leave, new ones arrive.
Plenty of people still working on this phone. I had an Eris and they are still deving for it too. I get bored and flash stuff on there every once in a while just to see whats new and poppin.

....................
I just picked up a fascinate almost a month ago now. I was coming from the Droid 1, that still sees quite a bit of development. And the Droid as much as I loved it comes nowhere near being as smooth or responsive as this phone. So there is deffinately no hardware restrictions I see causing an end of the road issue. While I havent been around to see what the dev community was, it still seems to be quite healthy from what I've seen lately. Its inevitable that developers move to newer devices but that also opens doors for others to step up to the plate. And as long as there is enough people interested and thankfull for software I think that there will be developers out there willing to work on it.

I think we should find a way to help those guys, teamhackingsung along with independent developers are working hard to get ICS up on our fassy. I wish I knew how to code or I would be all for helping them out, I have to give them much respect for what they do to fix these phones left without a paddle (so to speak). I still find it amazing how some developers do it for free and just want a simple thank you, does anyone know how to code? I really want to help these guys.
Dang...I feel for you guys. I used my Fascinate as an MP3 player for a while after I got my Nexus. Then one day I decided to flash one of JT's newest builds and it wouldn't boot and couldn't get into recovery. Didn't feel like odining and it's been sitting by my router ever since.

In all seriousness, I believe that the Facinate and its developers will be here for the long haul. As long as there are phones out there and people don't have the $$'s to upgrade as often as they like do to the economy. This is my 3 cents worth.

Looks like VZW is offering upgrades to folks with issues after the OTA GB update. We may be losing even more Fascinate owners.
So, I am a new user to XDA, but am by no means a newbie developer. PHP, PERL, C+, .net, powershell, you name it.
I wanted to give thanks to Mazwoz, as that poor soul has received the most ridiculous amount of trash talk for no reason. Also, a thank-you for his service (assuming he is enlisted and not a contractor).
Anyways, thanks to MazWoz for your work, and I hope that this silly 10 post minimum garbage goes away.
Otherwise, I guess I'll just post 10 more threads about how silly this is.
(Actually, I won't, but it made me feel better to say so.)
Mazwoz, if you happen so see this, I wanted to get you some information about a gallery issue I am having, I might have fixed it in a reproducible way.
I agree, even though he came out of nowhere with a rom, it turned out to be remarkably smooth for a first run ICS rom. Keep up the good work, man!

Thankyou MazWoz. Installed it and works awesome so far..Battery life is 30 hours and counting (on regular battery), and I am power user. Excellent work.!!
Waiting for your HW acceleration and Chrome fix.
Also would like to give big thanks to mazwoz... I've been using his ROMs for a few weeks now and they have been great daily drivers. I don't ever use 4g because for my experience its unreliable at best. Thanks for a great ICS rom and keep up the great work.
Just like the first one, I've been reading, reviewing and testing long before I decided to join. A lot of appreciation to any and all developers, I am running MazWoz 4.7...props sir!

4.7 is the best yet!

Truth! MazWoz is the man!!
BTW, got out of the Army as an E-5..... WAY too many years ago....
Not a fan of the 10 post minimum either, but I do understand the reasoning behind it. Just started tinkering with roms, but MazWoz-Evo JB 4.1.2 is the best one I've seen so far. So I thought I'd throw my thanks into the pile too. Look for my comments on the rom page soon... Thanks Maz!
MazWoz JB B3
I wanted to post a comment to the official development thread, but I couldn't. I have so far only been lurking in the shadows and not participating in the conversation so I'm nowhere close to the ten post minimum, even though I've been frequenting those pages for years!
I've been flashing my phone ever since my first Droid Eris had 1.6, and I've been running Maz's Jelly Bean ROMs since B1. This most recent release is (obviously) the most stable and fastest I've seen yet, and that goes for ANY JB ROM. I've tried a few, but Maz is the best. So the real reason I wanted to post was...
I want to thank MazWoz for spending so much time working on this. You have managed to breathe new life into my old-ass phone (not to be confused with my old ass-phone). Google Now is amazing, I love the new alarm clock, and the SPEED, man! Blistering!!
With B2, I was having a lot of issues when I'd open an app and it would freeze and reboot, but so far that seems to have been resolved. This ROM is so much smoother and faster in general, I don't even know where to begin singing your praises. If I could ask one favor, please include the option to center the clock in the status bar in your next release! I know you're already working on fixing the camera screen, so in summary:
KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK, AND THANK YOU!!! [cue applause]

Hell no its not dead,i scour all the phone sections looking for new ideas for roms and seeing what everyone else has going on and as old as this phone is,i believe the development for the OG is straight out blowing other development away,these sections are dead compared to the OG EVo,keep up the great work guys,i'm sure theres alot of peeps that very well appreciate all the great roms for the EVo.
Damn straight. I'm glad to be a part of the OG Evo community! Seems like we had at least 3 new Roms pumped out this week alone! Not to mention the countless updates. This community is far from dead.

I agree this is the most versatile phone on the market,it can withstand any flashing abuse we give it.

I think most developers are moving to the Galaxy S3. Freeza's there; Myn is gonna bring his Warm ROMs over; clark44 is there; fergie; and that's just a couple of the devs for the Sprint version. Cyanogen himself has both an AT&T and T-Mobile S3. All versions have builds of CM10, which I'm using right now. There are already a ton of TouchWiz ROMs, and at least two devs ready to port MIUI (just for the Sprint version; other variants already have MIUI).
I honestly thought that once you got S-Off on the Evo LTE (lazypanda, not htcdev), development would accelerate a ton. The lazypanda S-Off almost got me to grab an Evo instead of the Galaxy. I hope development picks up a bit for you guys.
The Epic was my first smartphone, so it will always have a special place in my heart, however, the time has come for me to get a new device. I got the Optimus G yesterday and it is amazing. I don't have the Epic anymore, so I probably won't do a whole lot more for it unless someone asks me to make a ROM that is unique from the other ROMs available (IE: I will not spend time making a ROM that looks and behaves nearly identically to CM, considering that we already have great CM builds). The loss of the keyboard is surprisingly not as difficult as I would have guessed. I hope to see some of you over at those forums, but to the ones who I don't, I will miss you.

I've been here since the Epic came out, and it's been a good run. My Epic's usb port has finally succumbed to the ravages of time, making it nearly impossible to charge - looks like I'll be moving on the gs3 forums soon. Usually, an upgrade is entirely a good thing, but I will definitely miss this community. I'm not trying to hijack Jake's thread, but I haven't done enough to warrant a thread of my own, lol
So back on topic - xboxfanj, thanks for everything you did to make an awesome phone even better. My dying Epic spent its last several months of life running CM7 with your original Crespo patch, and that is what will remain on it as it is powered down for the last time. Thanks again, and best of luck in all your future endeavors

Thanks again, and best of luck in all your future endeavors

Go with an Optimus if you can. My dad has the S3 and it is nice, but worse than the OG. I'll miss all you. Thanks for all the kind words everyone. Good luck to all of you.

It seems like it is getting closer and closer to when I have to turn out the lights on this forum.

Hold off until the day after the GS4 comes out. I'll be gone then.

The Epic was my first smartphone, so it will always have a special place in my heart, however, the time has come for me to get a new device. I got the Optimus G yesterday and it is amazing. I don't have the Epic anymore, so I probably won't do a whole lot more for it unless someone asks me to make a ROM that is unique from the other ROMs available (IE: I will not spend time making a ROM that looks and behaves nearly identically to CM, considering that we already have great CM builds). The loss of the keyboard is surprisingly not as difficult as I would have guessed. I hope to see some of you over at those forums, but to the ones who I don't, I will miss you.

I may be seeing you soon. Lol want to jump ship from this sprint bandwagon so bad.
Thanks Xbox for all the amazing ROMs, support, and dedication making this phone last far beyond any other phones of it's time. Love seeing people's brand new phones with inferior software than that of my 2 year old epic! Keep on keeping on man. Optimus G folks don't know what they are about to get

Kenny was refering to the discussion of other phones.. Not the Goodbye in general to Xboxfanj.
Verizon 4g lte is amazing to say the least. SwiftKey Flow is now my way of getting around the physical keyboard i still miss from my epic 4g.Even after i gave it to my girlfriend i knew I'd never have the same feeling of waiting for my favorite roms to update and getting new kernels for ICS that was the climax of the Epic for sure.. really appreciate the work you've done on the Epic Xbox, I hope the Optimus community enjoys your future work as you continue to improve their phones .

By the time I saw your suggestion, I already had my S3, so I didn't get a chance to check out the Optimus. I like the S3 though, so it's all good (trying to swap phones now would be more of a hassle than the account holder is willing to go through, lol). I must say that while I will always miss my hardware keyboard, the larger screen on the S3 makes it easier to live with. I'm rooted but holding out with the stock rom for a bit so I can properly assess the improvements on the custom roms (and so I can finish this semester without more distractions - playing with a new phone is more than enough of a distraction already lol)
Kenny - I think I'll be headed for the People's Rom first
