Thanks to US, XDA and Samsungjohn-•••

Do you think Samsung FINALLY HEARD OUR VOICES and bent under the cloud of losing market share (what I think) or what. Thank you either way,
Please feel free to express your thoughts here about the recent release of the source code and SamgsungJohn---
Thanks to XDA for providing a conduit to samsung , and thanks to the staff for helping all of us in the forum address the poor treatment we received from Samsung.
Thanks to SamsungJohn (albeit way late) reaching out to us, and at least acknowledging the superior development here is not a threat but an asset.
Thanks to all the people here pulling together to pressure a Big Corporation to respond to our calls to release the open source code (as required by the open source licensing agreement)
Thanks- ALL

The thing is, how can a major company like Samsung, take so many missteps?? Things like this is what they should have done in the beginning. They're slowing correcting their mistakes, but it certainly wont be forgotten. (I never had a Behold 2 so I do not know of that fiasco)

behold2 wasnt really a fiasco unless you were an impulse buyer.
if you did your homework before making a purchase you never would have bought one..

Was source released because of SamsungJohn? I missed that part.
I didn't think SamsungJohn actually did anything and then he just went away when we asked him questions.
It was also my understanding that source was released because they were obligated to - not because they wanted to show us some love.
Is there some information somewhere I'm missing?

I honestly give NO credit to @samsungjohn.... he came to XDA made some threads and asked for feedback (multiple times), but what has he really done? Nothing.... He tweeted about source being released, but so did a LOT of people on my timeline.

I agree that I don't think this was SamsungJohn's doing. However we need to give the guy some slack. He may not have approached things in the best way. But he is still learning and hopefully will come up with a good way to be the liaison between community and Samsung.

samsungjohn is the face of samsung trying to make up for what everyone has been *****ing about for so long.
why are all of you ****ting on him?
i doubt it was one man that said "ok lol give them source kekeke" but he's the one that is trying to mend all the wounds with the SGS device owners that post on XDA. i can only assume the first attempt went wrong as the thread is deleted now.
i would imagine it looked smiliar to the SGS/Tmobile facebook fan pages where anytime anything is posted, it ends up with 5000 people saying "**** you samsung/tmobile where is my froyo" by a bunch of idiots that wouldnt know the difference between 2.2 and 1.6, other than the number is 0.6 higher.
a lot of you guys are being ****ing crybabies now, even though the devs now have what they need to get 2.2 100% stable.
not to mention the fact we have a voice now that could get GB on our phones faster than ever.

be thankful that we are getting what everyone is asking for and be thankful we have bad ass devs like team whiskey and supercurio backing us up.

^ dude, nobody is giving him a hard time (or "****ting on him"), just pointing out he hasnt DONE anything, yet... not saying he won't, but what has he done? Asked for suggestions and tweets that he is working on something.... okay....

Not totaly true at all. The forums had a lot of promise but samsung didn't deliever on promises. I checked that forum before I bought mine. There was a dev that did amazing work so I bought one. When he gave up so did I.
He was known as BHMan aka eugene373

Did you guys notice on his twitter feed that he is a Social Media Analyst (aka, how many people are pissed at us counter) /Developer (what has he developed?)...
How can you work in social media and not know how to Direct Message?? Did you guys see the tweets with @Supercurio.... John had completely forgotten all of the really useful information @supercurio had sent him, and has shown nothing he has developed.... he didn't even know how to DM??? REALLY???
Sorry, but if you are on the @SamsungJohn train, you WILL be sadly let down. He is just trying to help with the rage we threw at Samsung. All they had to do was release Froyo/Source in a reasonable time and NONE of this would have been an issue.
It's funny to me that you guys expect something to come from this guy, who just appeared, and has done absolutely nothing to date.

the phone wasnt significantly better than the g1 and came out like a year after. based on that alone i would not have bought one..

fine, be negative, lol, whatever you want.

^^ Right, but the point is, a lot of people did buy the phone..... and they got F'd by Samsung who did nothing to support that phone.
I'm not being negative when I say not to expect anything from this John guy. Source was released, that's all we needed. I'm all for having a Samsung person who is really going to help.... I just don't see this going anywhere right now. I would LOVE to be wrong. I also hope future updates/source are taken more seriously by Samsung. Too good of hardware to lose customers due to support.

I agree but that said, In the public foray It good to be polite and cordial...... even though my "inner child wants vengeance" I can play nice.......
My Real problem is all the other phone makers and carrier do not treat you really any better........ In my business if I treated people the way Samsung treated us..... I'd be homeless.......... that is reality...... too bad they have different rules to play by and we just get to be the ping-pong ball

Isn't Samsung obligated to release the source code to their enhancements under the GPL?
I understand why they might be averse to doing that... but if they have a problem with it then they should switch to different OS for their devices.
I guess I have problems congratulating a company on doing what they are supposed to do.

We need your support - T-Mobile/Samsung - Give us an update!

If you want more information on this topic please visit the new, redone, 'We Need Your Support' thread at:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1427969 ​
We have gotten no news of any kind of update for our Samsung Vibrants. No Gingerbread update, not even a small 2.2.1 update, and I honestly believe that's just plain wrong. This has nothing to do with this phone being too slow or too old to run Gingerbread, heck.. it can even run Ice Cream Sandwich. And before you stop reading, no.. this isn't one of those threads that is just posted to complain, we have to do something about this. Maybe some people don't care for an update, maybe some don't understand what an actual OFFICIAL update could do for us users and devs. The lack of support for this device from both T-Mobile and Samsung has been horrible. Ask a representative from T-Mobile about an update, they'll say; Oh, It's coming.. Samsung is working on it. Ask a representative from Samsung about an update, they'll say; It's being worked on.. no ETA. So now, either both of the companies are clueless of their own product, and honestly don't know what is going on, or they just won't give us a straight.. 'No, you won't be getting an update.' which I think is dumb. I got hooked on Android because of it's openness, the support and the community. One of the only major updates that we got was through KIES, it wasn't even OTA. Maybe most of you don't care, but T-Mobile and Samsung should do right by us. I don't care about getting the latest and the greatest, I honestly would respect both Samsung and T-Mobile more if they gave us a straight answer.
So, what I'm asking is.. please help us by signing this petition and spreading the link wherever you can, because we have the power to fight this, we have the numbers and we can do it. This phone isn't super old, it's one of the best phones I've owned. Samsung did a great job with it, but that gives them no reason to stop supporting it. I got this on a two year contract, they should atleast support it for two years, and simply because it's in the Android spirit.
Link here: http://www.change.org/petitions/bri...-s-varients-samsungt-mobile-give-us-an-update
Please feel free to spread it on Facebook, Twitter, Google+, anywhere you see fit! If we get some headline news on Android blogs and sites, that'd be great, too!
Samsung and T-Mobile, we need an answer.

Will be signing this petition in the morning.

signed, guys common we need ALL of the vibrant members to do this.

just put something random down thats nearby.

I agree, but use US adresses. This phone US only.
I think we should write about the situation in each posts in all official T-mobile Facebook, Google+, .... pages.
People need to know about T-mobile poor support and poor attitude to customers.

But like I said, keep posting, tweeting it, sharing it.
It's our turn to get something.

Great idea! I hope this will make a difference.

Signed. Really hoping we get somewhere, but won't be putting any money on it

signed and sent the link to galaxy s twitter account..they should also know what is going on

Just signed it. Also, someone should contact neobuddy89 and ask him put a link to this petition in his ICS Passion v9.1 ROM thread. If that were done then this petition will gain a lot more recognition from the community because so many people visit that thread daily.

Let's petition HTC to release the descendent of Desire Z/G2, a phone with keyboard!

I've created a petition to get HTC release internationally a new powerful android device with hardware keyboard. Something that would serve as a powerful descendant of our beloved Desire Z. Many nice phones are being released these days, like the HTC One series, but we still miss a new keyboard device from HTC!
If you feel like you're motivated, let's try to reach a critical mass with signs on this petition! Also don't forget to propagate the petition, so it would start to reach all over the world, and finally we could hand over a big fat petition to htc...of course it could mean nothing to them, but hey, it's worth a try.
http://www.change.org/petitions/htc...y-a-powerful-new-phone-with-hardware-keyboard
We're over 200 signers. Not much, but nice start in a few days!
Please, if you feel inclined, don't hesitate to share this on twitter, gplus or facebook, where ever you feel it's appropriate. Don't forget to put @htc in your tweet if you link the petition, or +htc in google plus.
Please, lets try to get this to XDA portal, press Submit Thread in the upper right corner!
Elektrey (unaffiliated with htc)created a nice imaginary design for such a device. You can check it here in my gplus page. All credits to Elektrey for the image:

Amen. We need one of these soon!

Yeah. I'm trying to think of which sites/forums to put this link to. We need more and more signs and reshares on social sites.
Please feel free to campaign with the petition link anywhere you think its appropriate and useful. Thanks

A few little tweaks to that render and I'd pay a damn lot of money for that phone! As it stands, I'm probably going to have to give up my qwerty soon since my DZ just can't play with the big boys any more
If HTC would release something like this, 4" or 4.3" screen and high end specs, I'd be ecstatic.
EDIT: And I can't overstate how critical the scrollpad is as well. In an ideal world I'd want hardware buttons on the front of it and all!

Please, lets try to get this to XDA portal, press Submit Thread in the upper right corner!
thx

Done, and done!

I Signed the petition now!
Hope to have good news soon!

SIGNED!!
im so envy for getting one

One thing to note as well, if you want this to be more effective, you also want to make sure proper grammar is enforced throughout the petition.It is, atleast for me, a red flag as soon as I see stuff that is riddled with bad grammar.
p.s. before people start bashing me for asking for proper grammar, I'm trying to give constructive criticism. I'm not mocking him. If you want to petition for anything, anything less that perfect almost always get dismissed at first glance.

Bad grammar is the least of OP's worries .... the idea that a big hardware vendor is going to ignore all the carefully prepared and analysed sales predictions and customer feedback. Just because a few people on a forum get their aunts to sing some bone headed petition ........ ****ing priceless.

Why forumer become rude nowdays>>

I just wondering why our nexus community becoming such rude to each other..
I just read 2 thread which is Matr1x kernel and AdamG AOSP..
It is so annoying reading post that asking MK when will release JB kernel and asking thalamus to add vodoo smartass bla bla to his kernel..
Dont they realize that our dev just do the kernel, ROM , mod just as hobby??
Why have to ask repetitively for ETA for this and this??ironically the question already answered few previous post..
Eventhough you have donate 100000USD to dev..It is a donate..Not a paid, salary so whatever..So..

Users should be able to mark posts as spam like on youtube and if it gets two or three times marked as spam it should be deleted. Keeping the dev forum clean would not only make things easier for devs, but also for us, if there were no ETA questions and feature requests or other spam (don't post NICE ROM DOOD, AWSUM!!! but instead use the thanks button) it'd be much easier for us to find out the ROMs bugs etc.
A note to the devs: I know I can't request anything, but keeping Post #1 up to date and include as much relevant information as possible might help keeping your thread clean but that's just a suggestion and many of you do it anyways

Here! Here! Hope people read and take into consideration the implications of this post. We (non-devs) are very fortunate to have these very talented people donate their time and hard work for our enjoyment.

It just seems, at least to me, people just expect things to be handed to them and they feel that they are somehow owed something. I don't know the average age of the members here, but it may also have to do with that. I'm not giving them a free pass, but I've become kinda bitter when I see stuff like this because I've been using forums since middle school. I was that way once, but come on. How hard is it to read the OP?

Apparently this is the average member in the NS forums.

To be honest. More and more users of xda is joining xda. (I've been flamed by NetChip, so i responded) Once they join, they didn't look into forum rules, didn't look into the Terms, and didn't look for Developers respects. So, you tell me. Do you know why devs went to their own forums or Rootzwiki? Remember what andyharney said before in Legolas's Thread?

Forums for Nexus S get closed, the phones are useless, just paperweights and we all have to get a new one. Probably an iPhone, because we're unworthy of Android. Seriously, what's the point of all the whining?! Life goes on, and so does developement. Is this the first time you've seen such things happen on xda?!

He said he will release another JB rom once he is satisfied with it, which I'm cool with. The knuckleheads that kept asking the same thing over and over again didn't help either. You see it all over the place here. The answer half the time is in the op or a few pages back. But a site this popular will have many more people like that, so sadly it seems unavoidable.

Its the cycle... as a device gets older, it becomes cheaper. When it's cheaper, younger ppl can afford it. Younger ppl aren't as mature as older ppl (usually), and when they become part of the community, they bring a lot of young ppl problems.

But how about developers goes away from.xda because of forumers attitude?

All those examples suck, yes. Why do you think the 10-post-minimum was added? But to prevent it completely, you'd need a mod cleaning the threads continuously, that would be a boring fulltime-job. As for the attitudes: It takes two to tango... ^^

I agree with this post. Its like all of the members that left us for a Galaxy Nexus recently passed down or sold their Nexus S to a breed of idiots. It has never been this bad.

Already been done. Pointless thread. Sammobile has all of the links needed, there is absolutely no point in making this thread just to get some people to stroke your thanks button so the meter gets bigger.

Hi mate. I saw you are trying to make a list of stuck firmwares for the s3, have you seen my site androidfirmwares.net ? If you want to, i can make you an admin so u can use the site to host the files. Intratech is already doing what you want to. So maybe you should mail him and have a chat with him. He's the one with the thread that is sticky. He also made some guides on how to flash for new people. Its not to shoot your idea down but you not the first to do this. Anyway if you like ill host all the files so people dont have to use hotfile.

@Pawmadsen
Your site looks good, yeah it will be better hosting on their then on hotfile or even mediafire. Can you provide me access and I will start adding files on their.
PM me the info, thanks

Helping people is not stroking your thanks meter.
Constantly being annoying and trying to ruin peoples work is.
nodstuff - You must really be some kind of lame stalker.
If you don't agree with someones work - dont click on it.
Nobody needs your useless opinion.
Go do whatever lame thing you were doing before you gained access to the internet.
This thread is to have things easily linked on XDA for users to access.
Ill keep in mind that you like to use the second post everytime I make a thread. Goodbye.

I've realised that you are too dense to heed what I am telling you, that's all.
Best of luck with your 6 imaginary roms and all of your projects.
I'll be waiting to see what you come out with.....

I thought faryaab had a thread on the latest firmwares. Plus I know there is guide on here to get all firmwares.
So I think it would have been best to your info to those other threads.
Coming from the tf201 forums on xda, I love how the moderators here on the s3 forums keep it nice and clean.
Maybe before this turns into a battle, people should pm or consult the mods for proper thread additions.

You show arrogance as well as jealousy. How would you know what ROMs I make, just pop over to the forum and they will confirm for you whether I made ROMS for the device or not.
Anyway I thought you were not going to post again -- old habits dont die.

Yes, I can see that your ROMs were very popular!
Oh, and just so you know, it's spelled Britannia. Two N's

You have started 11 threads in 6 days, you can't say anything about useless posts.
Look, I'm not trying to piss you off but you need to stop with the spamming.
There already is a copy of this thread out there, in fact there are 2.
Webos was talked about before and so was win8.
The forums are messy enough already.
