Dear fellow Galaxy S Users,
For almost a year now it has been my honor and my pleasure to maintain the FAQ and Guides for our beloved GT-I9000.
I would like to thank all those who helped make the FAQ what it is today and all the developers who helped make this phone such a massive success in the modding aftermarket.
As of today I am the proud owner of a brand new Galaxy S II GT-I9100.
As such I am looking for someone to take over maintenance of the FAQ so that it can continue to benefit the SGS community. (I cannot afford to own two high-end devices at the same time so my old I9000 will have to go during one of the next days)
If you are interested and feel you are qualified, please contact me via PM or leave a reply in this post.
Cheers,
Darkstriker
Thanks for creating and maintaining these great FAQs. For many of us they were the starting points in modifying our SGS phones without bricking

Hi all. I would just like to say a massive thank-you to all on xda wildfire forum. 2011 has been bumpy for me,my mum passing in Feb.birth of my son in June,my sister suffering stroke in June too and my grandad passing this month. I accidentally stumbled across xda but was hooked from 1st visit. I can personally say I've tried nearly all the Roms and have my favs. The forums and members have kept me busy and entertained through a tough year so I just wanted to show my appreciation to everyone but special thanks to: deepknight,( my 1st rom) dannejo,arco68,HDCRjacob and anyone else who has helped me. The biggest THANKS to my Yoda - 3xeno. You never fail to assist my queeries and pm's,your help has been extremely valuable to me and my phone. Big up the xda forums. Thank-you,regards slymobi.

So sorry to hear of your losses, I know how you feel, those tragic things have happened in my family too over the last couple of years. Chin up and carry on its the only way mate.
I've only been around for a few months but the amount I've learnt thanks to people here is amazing. 3xeno is a God and should be praised for all the advice and knowledge he possesses, I didn't have the privilege of using deepknights rom or dannejos while they we're developing them in the beginning but from what I've seen from using the roms and read about them, they too are geniuses and built amazing roms, they did things for wildfire that I didn't know was possible until I found xda.
I decided to stick with cm7 nighlies as its updated everyday (almost lol) and it isn't bloated with useless stuff I don't use. So thanks everyone at cm for your excellent work too.

Stay strong mate, and all the very best to you.
Hey folks
Just wanted to drop a big THANK YOU to all the helping folks here in the forums and the awesome developer community.
You're just great.
I started reading these forums half a year ago. No clue of android.
Just an old HTC desire ...
So I startred reading the dummy how-tos, decided to root my Desire, what lead me to the root how-tos.
After rooting, the customer support of HTC sucked. I flashed cyanogen7.
Happy till today. (link2sd ^^ ... )
Then I rooted my Transformer 101, flashed a bunch of roms, got stuck in the recovery loop, many of us know, got out of it, flashed new recovery, flashed different kernels, than the Roms include ...
And all just by reading these forums.
Damn, you guys rock \m/
I posted a very similar thread here myself a few months back..isn't it awesome here? (besides the obvious trolls lol)
I'm learning to develop ROMs and apps now thanks to the community here, learned how to use git, and even met a few people that I work with now outside of the site on android development. Community is the best part of this place, but even lacking the community the information here is massive lol

You're right. But I as a dummy I fell some kind of mercy with all those, that take the time to explain something a 100 times, that was explained at the start of a topic ...
The amount of information here is truly massive.
Big thanks from me too. I start reading this forum 4 months ago and tunned up my transformer. It's alot better than wen i bought it...
It's a fantastic community and it must have our appreciation!
Yes..agree
There's some great folks here in all sorts of threads..
Some grumpy old folks
Some green folks
Some pain in the arse folks..
But as a whole it makes for a better user experience for us all on our devices.
Edit.. and a thanks to the Mods for keeping us all under control..

So here we go. My development is over - I'm done with it and want to tell you something about me before I leave (of course I will be here, but only sometimes and won't make any more projects). Why I need to end this all? This is a question. I told that on my DX8 thread on X10 development section - my hands have Carpal Tunnely Syndrome and I fighting with this for about few month or so. Now it's pretty nice, I'm holding myself and pain is not so bad and not hurting me everyday (only sometimes).
But what can I say about myself? It's very hard, but I will try to tell you everything I remember best:
I've started my adventure with Android after I bought Xperia X10 something like ~2 years ago. It was very nice choose and I started to learn some "noob-edits" like deleting officiall 2.1 apps (after I update it from 1.6) to make my X10 faster. Never heard about XDA yet. Then I started to write some first posts on my blog (which is old and closed already for months). I posted there my opinion about X10, my first news of Xperia family, and more. Then I get proposition from one forum to be VIP there. Now, heh, it's my forum . I worked there about Gameloft games etc. to make X10 better (won't tell where etc. cause on XDA it's not allowed - let's tell that my past is not "clean" - it's warez and hackers job yeah. Then I was asked to make some first steps on XDA, writing threads, make myself more international etc. Like you see - it was nice idea . But let's go back. After I close my blog I need to sell my first X10, but one of the best guys here, and very polite and fair friend, mohibb bought me one X10, to make my back-to-job possible. Then I back with some DiXperia for X10 users, can't remember which one. The development on XDA and my forum growed more and more, YT channel too, and my blog was already closed....And then, some time after I bought Xperia Play, and started to play with Play . Made DiXperia number first, then DiXperia 2, which is my last project in Android developping. Now, because of hands problem, I need to end this all and I think you respect my decision and you're happy to use (or used before) any of my ROM, and your device was better at least than Stock ROMs . All last threads like DX8 for X10 and DX2 for Play are complete in 10000% and I think the best fans or polite guys here will help all new persons here, with some bugs or anything else - I'm counting on you guys, cause I will be here only for free-talking about spam-features D), not for development or some new updates. And please don't ask if I will ever back - I think I won't. I have now my private life problems (girl, which I'm falling in love, arguing with me and it's all over...), school starts yesterday, I have much more things to do. But I will never forget about X10 and Play community, all best fans and haters and more. I want to thanks for Moderators and Administators for great job about XDA site and many, many more! Can't tell everything cause I will need to edit this thread thousand times to complete all I want to say!
It's not so long as I wanted to be, but it's enough. Goodbye guys, love our community, and I will be here, but not so often, and with not new projects.

be careful about that!
I still remember well,your rom dixperia 7 was the first custom rom I used. That started my craze to flash almost every single rom available,because of dixperia 7 my love for the x10 grew.,when I almost gave up on it.
Dikej,your one of the best developers the x10 ever had,and its sad to see you end development but I understand. ,personal life and health is far much more important.
I wish you luck and healthy hands my buddy Dikej.

This is sad news dikej im going to miss you man! you were such a huge help in and around this forum! and i really hope you get everything in your personal life sorted out! ANd i wish that your hands had never become a problem! farewell dikej i wish you the best man! thank you!!
Good Luck
Damian!
I always nice to read which person lives behind 'the developer'.
Altough I never used one of your ROMs, i always read something good about them.
Even that I wasn't a DXperia-user (during DXperia 6, I was on Trips ROM), you've given me a great x10. Why, you ask?
Because you were developing at a high level, other developers were also working at high level. So therefor: every ROM became great ROM. It's because developers learned from each other and helped each other. So there was a benefit for me
Ofcourse, real life is more important. So i wish you all the best.
Thank you for getting the best out of X10!
Best whishes and good luck for you !
And another good friend leave our lovely X10 Forum!
Have fun and enjoy your life.
Thanks buddy for your hard and awesome work!
Greets Maik
good luck...hope some new devs will come and keep our x10 alive.
Thanks for your contributions
Good luck & Have fun

even if seeing this post didn't come as a surprise to me, but it's sad not to see your great works continuing to shine our development section,
thanks so much for your time as DikeJ and as Damian, it's a pure pleasure to have guys like you in here,
take good care of yourself (especially studies), i join the one who said "be careful about that "
have a great afternoon, see you around
It's been a fun year owning my first smartphone, the x10i. Many thanks to ALL of the developers that extended the life of my x10i, and the members that of this forum that gave me tips and advices for phone. Enjoy peeps, and have a great Thanksgiving!
Now, it's time to go to my next forums--Lumia 920.
Good buy

Well clixt i'll joining you soon, not to windows phone but as moving on from the x10. While i can't say i remembered you from around here but best wishes.
I've already made a move to Galaxy Note II for the past 2 weeks. My X10i had served me well for the past 3 years. Yes it was my first smartphone and Android is still my beloved platform. I've learnt a lot from this forum and would like to thank to all the devolopers for their contribution and am happy to see this forum is still alive and kicking.
