General Chat! All XDA'ers Welcomed!

Ok guys/gals here it goes, Hopefully, this can become a sticky
Im gonna explain why I have decided to create this thread, and then I'm gonna explain what this thread will be all about.
First, why did I create this thread? I have noticed lately alot of members who like to get a little chatty in certain threads...whether its in the general section, dev section or themes & apps. Sometimes we can get a little carried away with our talking and it usually ends up with another member(s) telling these 2,3 sometimes 4 people to stay on topic and stop flooding the thread..Rightfully so. Sometimes, it also goes as far as a mod having to come into the thread, spend time cleaning it up, and then hand out bans, warnings, etc etc...rightfully so.
So, whats this thread all about? It's simple...THERE ARE NO TOPICS! we as XDA members sometimes like to talk..period! Within this thread we can talk about whatever we want...your fav rom, your fav theme, your fav theme with fav rom, other phones, cars, tv's, dslr camera, your job, where you live, post pictures of random cool things..etc etc.
The great thing about this is there will be NO going off topic, no warnings about going off topic, no being sent on vacation etc etc. This DOES NOT mean you now have the right to disrespect other members. This simply means you are now free to talk about whatever it is you want. Just as if we were all sitting around a camp fire with a beer in each hand...good ol' conversation!
The only thing I can ask of this is remember every member will and has there own opinion about anything that may get mentioned in this thread...PLEASE respect that! Don't be rude to other members, don't start fighting. This thread is our chance to finally go "off topic" without any harm.
This thread can be fun...I noticed alot of people who like to talk...so lets do this.
ps. Just because I created this thread does not mean in any way that I am gonna run it or be in control...oh helll no lol. This thread is for all of us to run and have fun. I suspect we are all mature enough to keep this thread fun, clean, stupid (you know how you get stupid sometimes, but it's funny lol) funny, and also help other people out with anything that gets talked about.
So, what do you guys say? Lets do this or what?
Now, im off for the night/early morning...my little girl will not go to sleep no matter what I do. It's been playtime for her for the last 17 hours or so...she is like that dang energizer bunny....I seriously don't get it...she needs sleep! lol

i didnt even read though ur 1st line. all i need is 2.3.3
this thread will be closed.

please...STAY ON TOPIC
sorry but couldn´t resist
Edit: ...and this thread should call OFFTOPIC TOPIC

So which do you think will come first? 2.3.3 for X10 or Diablo 3 beta . I really think it's a close race

a place to really chat sounds nice

Well we already have an off-topic sub-forum but I like the idea to have one like this here in our X10 sub-forum, Not sure if mods will let it but good idea

MIUI Revolution

where did livewings MIUI Revolution thread go in the dev forum? does anybody know? i know that he got banned for slapping noobs, but i just read the thread earlier and now its gone.

+1
I also want to read.

well, i manage to bookmark his thread before. so this is the link but mod can edit/delete my post if suitable.

Please bring the thread back. Please. And Livewings too.
And since we don't have the thread I have to ask this here; Does anyone remember the recommended app for video recording? I need it badly.

It's not the thread the OP is talking about. But the last Livewings thread, the one in which he started insulting people, has been deleted.
Just my opinion, i've never seen so much drama on a dev forum. With lot's of dev whinning at each other with competion.
I thought android dev community and Galaxy Note users was a sort of big family. Seems i was wrong.

No this is the MIUI Livewings edition.
This was closed and MIUI revolutions was started, which eventually has been deleted.

Videocam illusion.
Why wasn't the thread just locked as it contains loads of info for the many, many people that flashed the rom!? This is ridiculous.

Agree completely. This is breach of trust, what happens to all those who flashed their ROM trusting XDA that the info would be there? Deleting is too big a decision, if found violating rules, the that particular post could have been deleted and thread be locked, but deleting the entire thread?

Thanks man. And I second your opinion. The mods need to fix this colossal screw up.

sabotage case maybe..
+1 bring back the thread... im stuck with this rom..need the guide and fix in the thread..

Please bring that thread back. Deleting a thread that can affect so many uaers is just plain wrong. Lets not kill the existing development on our device.
Edit
Besides this rom is lovely

please bring him back and thread as well...

I very much doubt that the thread can be restored if it is really deleted (and it appears that it is).
If anyone needs clarification as to what/why that happened, you could perhaps ask here:
From the Users to the Mods & Admins

What did he wrote that insult people? If he insult people from beeing noob then I understand moderator, there are loots of noobs here, some of them might become a dev someday. If you start to insult people from beeing noob, then the interest for xda will collaps.

Hi guys,

Hi guys, I'm Livewings here.
Here is my official response.
To all my users, I appreciate your support.
Please tell the mods to wake up their idea and remind themselves
why are we here at XDA to pursue development of one's phone.
I apologise for slapping noobs but this has way gone too far.
Peace out.

Mods you made a great mistake banning LW and above all deleting his thread. Absurd. Please LW keep on with your fantastic job and tell us Please how to follow you in these days. I would like to go on with your roms but we need support thanks

Agreeed that the mods had to take some action. But deleting the thread and banning the user is no solutiom to a problem at hand. All posts can be deleted instead that exhibit such behavior.
Just saying that there are better steps to take when things go south.

I wonder why this thread didn't turn into a flame war, I mean it was plain and simple flame bait.
Some guy asked about his screen earlier and was ambushed and massacred and everyone misses this one. Lol!
Funny things, forums....
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium

I can see how some people think it's a mess.. I mean lets face it tons of people do not bother reading or searching, So I can see this being a problem for those types. I mean now they have to go though a WHOLE two forums to NOT search for what they want and NOT read.. lordy lordy the sky is falling!! what on earth are we going to do? You mean we have to be a tiny bit less lazy than we already are?? lol
I saw the change last night and it didnt take rocket science to see what happened. I was like "oh ok kernels, cm, miui in here, sammy cooked roms and mods there".
If anything it's more organized now, not a mess..

Ya its not exactly complicated to figure out, and ya, if anything it's more organised.
My only gripe is the app, still no original Android development tab.
That guy last night that posted about JB sources when there was another two posts below was typical of what's going on here, I even got a screenshot of it to post but once I went into the thread someone had already very kindly pointed out the OP that he should use search! :But ya, its ridiculous and no amount of posts or stickies or whatever seems to stop people doing it.

After looking at the OP profile,he posted this here and he meant to post in the US forums. Wow yeah he is going to have trouble in those forums, if he cant even post in the correct forum dont know how he is going to handle that multi-carrier forum hahahah. I thought he meant the forum split of Original dev and Android dev

From within the app, remove GS3 forum from your favourites and then re-add it, should then show all the sub sections including the new one correctly, but yeah would be nice if it did that by itself.

Repost?

Closed, as it seems the OP got the wrong forums.
Let me take a moment to remind everyone to REPORT problem/dupe/uneeded/unconstructive posts or threads, dont respond, report, and we (the mods) will get on it and sort it out.
We cant be everywhere, and if no one reports it, it normally wont be seen.
And leaving notes in threads for us, doesn't work, PM the section mods, or use the report system.
Thank you and happy XDAing.

Everybody who wants to know it looks in dev section first, not in general if somebody posted it. I think the purpose of this thread is to increase your post count.

No disrespect to you mate, but I couldn't give a rats ass about my post count. I'm using this tapatalk which is pretty new to me, and these forums are new to me.
I only posted it in case someone had missed it, but yes I see your point. I was only trying to be helpful, I apologise. I'm new here, give me a bit of a break please.
Edit: just noticed a couple of your recent posts. one was the word yes, and another was a roll eyes emoticon. Someone trying to increase their post count? lol

give it a rest mate.
For some crazy reason, the author of the slimbean thread doesn't update the title of the thread with new releases.

This tapatalk doesn't show me the difference between mere mortals, mods, and admins, but I assume amerkiller is a mod, telling me not to do things again, yes?
I hope he is, because if not, there's only one other thing that he could be.
Rhymes with banker.
Edit: all jokes only meant light hearted. But seriously, no wonder some people just come to places like this to just rape the place for files and not contribute when a newcomer who puts a post in the wrong place or anything faces this kind of hostility from..... I'll stop there lol
I've also been helping people in other threads. Maybe I shouldn't bother and just come for all my ROM files. But I like to help.

[Q] Echoe Rom thead closed

Can somebody please tell me why Echoe Rom is closed? It's my favorite Rom as I've never had an issue flashing them...every mod i throw at it seem to work flawlessly..so why have they done this?..please make them bring it back..:crying::crying:

Rixsta closed the thread due to Flaming and lack of respect after several warnings, I'm sure the thread will be opened back shortly once it's been settled with the OP

When a rom is good like Echoe, it gets very popular...downside, it attracts more brainless people, showing no respect to the dev and the team.

I think that this is a provocation of people who were jealous of popularity threads

U know what they say "overfamiliarity causes disrespect". I think Friedrich was too nice to reply as many stupid people as he can...now look what it has caused. I don't blame most devs not replying stupid posts and just working backstage...
It really is disheartening..

So what was the flaming about? The garish theme on the latest release? Was planning to download the ROM (unthemed version) but no download links in first post...

Same here. I was just about to download and noticed no link ?

I feel very frustated with all this. Friedrich is a nice guy e very prestative at elucidating questions, and his work is had of the best Roms out there.. I really wish the topic be unlocked as soon as possible and developer can continue with his nice contribuitions to all community.

With the thread closed, we cannot have access to the new links, right?

yeh @Friedrich is a great developer i have seen the way he interacts with people around the forum and it s just marvelous . i wish him the best of luck.

Respect Friedrich40
Respect +1

Hope it can re-opened again. Really is a great Room and daily using Echow v3.1 :good::good::good::good:

I have a good idea, why don't we all post a private message to Rixsta apologizing
for the lack of civility and respect these other people have shown in his thread.
Then perhaps he will open the thread again. LOL

The thread will reopen this afternoon. Stay tuned.

lol same thing happened to me was looking for the download links

Another massive fan of the Echoe Rom here, and saddened by the lack of respect shown to developers.
@Friedrich and the team have done great work, and I love the slim version especially - here's hoping they are willing to continue working for us and reopen the thread. Without these people, our phone experiences wouldn't be as rich and as fun as they are.

Thread is open now and dl links available
