Official Ap 4.0 Pre-release Thread - Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development

I have started this thread out of frustration regarding all the irrelevant BS being posted in the AP 4.0 coming but needs... and official AP 4.0 release threads.
It seems the team's request to not post in the official release thread is not being heeded so hopefully all the irrelevant and off-topic "I hope it is being released soon" and "Where is it?" type activity will end up here instead.
And when the ROM is released, hopefully the mods will flush this all down the toilet.
In other words, POST ALL THE STUPID BS HERE AND NOT IN THE OTHER THREADS!
I am now putting on my fireproof underwear and waiting for the flame wars...

Thank you.

They'll probably still continue to post in the other 1 million threads anyway, including the one that clearly states DO NOT POST. Sigh.....Anyway, what are some of your expectations in the new ROM?

Hello tootallk, let me ask a question ....
Do you have children ?
Then you know the best way if you want children something to do. Tell them "DON'T DO THAT" or "DON'T REPLY HERE"....
Anyway - live is serious enough, let's have some fun.
Regards
Dieter

Me first

I just got fed up and had to vent. I honestly don't see how the team puts up with most of us...
EDIT: Hopefully the ROM will get relased soon and make this thread short-lived.

good thread idea mate. those people posting kinda ****ed me of because why cant they understand "DONT POST IN THIS THREAD". plus, theres people commenting on grammar, and im like wtf? at least if a junior posts there saying will this work on x7501 [a valid, but easily searchable question] and people reply with actually you should have worded your question like this... its a waste of time

My turn! my turn!
I can see the sea from here!
3yr old and a 7th month old is more than enough for me.....

WOW 17 and owning a X7500! Are you some internet wizzkid?

Has anyone noticed the "...coming but needs..." thread has more replies than the 3.0 release thread (and that ROM has been out for months)?

lol.. nope i just have to do something with my time... i think it all started [my ppc obsession] when i was on mobile360.co.uk, looking at coming soon phones, and saw the athena.. i was like wtf, thats huge... then I did some research and picked up a SPV M3100 for about a hundred and fifty quid. Then 6 months later, being dropped loads and loads hadnt done it any good, and after trying to fix it, I sold it. Then I knew the device I wanted, having drawn the athenas outline on some paper, and putting my tytn inside the outline, it really wasnt that much bigger. So I got an ameo with a blocked imei from a guy on here, But circumstances were against me, and 3 weeks later I had to downgrade because of money probs. [the thing was, I sold it, and it didnt arrive in italy, so i ended up nearly 400 quid out of pocket, when it could have been like 130 in pocket, with an ameo] I picked up a touch enhanced, but no keyboard was really a drag. plus gprs and 210mhz made it really slow... so once my debt [thats why i wold mt ameo in the first palce] had been paid off, I got my second ameo... and its as good as the first time
So, am I some kinda of internet whizzkid, nah, im just an engineer, and need something to play with 24/7
By the way, ppc's are the reason I went from 3 A's and a D in my first as modules to like 2A's, 2B's, 2C's and 2D's in my second lot. But my recentest ones werent too bad, 2A's, 2B's and 2 E's, i should probably ban myself from my phone until exams are over on the 19th of june!
lol
[edit] I noticed how the coming soon but needs thread is longer than the pk3 one.. how funny[/edit]

Rory

I think it's time you take your own advice. When your phone is beginnen to affect your grades. That's BAD.
You ADDICT!
Get clean, NOW!

im going to get a hammer, and smash my athena with it
[suddenly has second thoughts, and starts to strangle himself for thinking something so stupid]
plus, I now actually do work, whereas last year, i just went on the net on my tytn...
lol
and I have to educate my mate whose a touch owner on the greatness of flashing, hes had it 10 months, and not flashed once
so that kinda waste my time too...

Welcome to Flash-a-holics anonymous

"Hello, my name is Jeff and I am a Flash-a-holic"
"Hello, Jeff" - The group says in unison.
So it all started about 8 months ago, when WM6 first came onto the scene, well not actually because it had not yet hit the streets and I was among the selected few (via this forum) in the world to have it up and working on their devices. I later learned that yet again I had a device that would not be among the chosen to receive the new and updated MS-OS, bummer. (Same with my Qtek 2020 not going to 2003SE and then to WM5)
Like many of out there, I have become a Flash-a-holic. I have flashed just about ANY and EVERY ROM out there for my Prophet at least about 100x's, looking for Ms. Right-ROM, heck I have even heard of others flashing ROMs from OTHER devices! Going back to official WM5s and living with its ugliness and slowness and just plain dullness... waiting.
Whether it is from Vietnam, Thailand or Russia - each and every release either b(this) or b(that) or TOUCH this or that - we are always told of how it is NEW and/or Improved - leading us to believe that we will FINALLY have a NICE and (above all) STABLE WM6 on our Prophet and STOP THE MADNESS, but helas after the proverbial "15 to 30 minutes depending on your CPU Speed" of anticipation we have the same as we did before flashing... same symptoms - I am sure that I don't need to list them here, they are ALL the same and surely directly linked to the fact that the image came from a totally different device (Wizard) and thus there are Incompatibilities.
What do we expect? What is it that we seek? I personally would like to have the most up-to-date OS on my device without the powers that be telling me that it is incompatible (purely a marketing decision) with all of the bells and whistles. I personally like the VoIP feature, which ALSO only works depending upon the flavor you flash to - guess ya can't have it all. Some things work in THIS one and not in THAT one... you all know where I am coming from.
So the quest continues on, Flash this and Flash that - waiting for the ONE that will stop the insatiable urge for more and better.
When will it be?
WHEN WILL IT ALL STOP!!!

That made my day. you are so totally right. sad, isn´t it?
i'm sorry i'm just here for the cookies and juice...which would be where btw?
Actually yeah, I need to make a decision quick (although I am addicted to PDAViet 4.0.0.0.3), but I think I need two things
1. For it to work lol
2. A stable wifi connection (although I don't use it much, but I want to know that is there when i need it)
It's looong road... Enjoy the ride
Hey Jeff,
I frankly thought that this was touch cynical. Yep we’ve had issues, bugs and crashes, but I guess in the end of the day, I loved the feeling of being anew, different, and to an extend personalized…
I’ve tried coupla ROMs till now .4a PDAviet looked good. But I am stuck since coupla weeks on .3a pdaviet ROM… I love it for it’s crispness, speed and STABILITY… The issues I’ve had with these ROM has been worked around( visit http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=308266&page=47 for my workarounds on the issues I faced). One wish though would be the battery drain. In my WM5 my prophet used to last for two day and still gimme 10-15% left. But with this ROM I’ll be very lucky if I could wait to get back home on my second day to charge..
But above all this entire Flash thingi is giving a feeling that I am not tied down any more. I get the familiar feeling of hitting the road on my bike again with wind against my face. I’ll travel wherever I like at my pace at my wish. And I turn to my friends who cook these ROMs for the fuel. I don’t like a particular brand of fuel? I stop over at another bunk. And it’s not the fuel that thrills me but it’s the ride. I’d thank all the ROM cookers for the ride. Great going and wish it'll never stop coz there notheing perfect only perspectives. God bless
PS- Jeff, I like your style of writing...
Well, even though Jeff pretty much described it all, there are many like myself that no matter how cool or stable a ROM is, will continue to try new stuff on our beloved Prophets just for the fun of it.
Actually I'm flashing the FantasticB4 (with TouchFlo capabilities) on my device even though I was pretty happy with my previous ROM.
Cheers!
Rayan

Hello Jeff,
Are you my missing twin brother that got stolen from the hosipital at birth that even my parents didn't know about?
I went through the same thing with these WM6 ROM's. I just checked, I started doing that about March. I lost numerous precious sleeping hours and sex life.
What do you do for a living? Someday we should meet to have a coffee (not a drink).
Jeff .....
Dont fret .. I too flash my life away . I have been easily thru over 1,000 phones since I began using cells. I have flashed , flexed , seem edit , hacked , chracked , modded and just about tried a little of everything to a cell phone thats possible . I have even blew up a few phones just to see how strong they really are. Ran them over with car , truck , bus bike and who even knows. I even tried to flush 1 from an airplane to see what happens but it got stuck ... LOL Then I thought dammm airplanes dont flush into the open air. LOL . So I guess we in the right place ....
riyazhyder: Thanks for your complements, and yes it was meant to be intra-cynical, if it seamed extra-cynical, my appologies. You are right, enjoy the ride - ya don't know how far the road goes.

Never ending - perpeptual
Ha,
thats true--its perpeptual-- Ones effort gives energy to other and others to other and so on.
No one can stop this by any rule, but its matter of self satisfaction.
In my view our devices r primarly used for working not flashing ( just joking), so what i do ( probably most of us)
1) working 5 week days
2) F(**k)lashing 2 weekend days
so this OK ?

Irus,
Obviously, you have not experienced being a member of another WiMo forum. The impatience and so called stupidity shown here is nothing compared to those experienced by Jiggs in the Atom forum. Hats off to Jiggs for being soooooo patient with noobies, overly arrogant and just plain stupid people.
Look at the bright side, if the AP team is enjoying and finding amusement in the "stupid post" then who are any one of us to complain.
This is a forum. Unless democracy is dead, then everyone has the right to post stupid opinions or to simply act like a kid. There is no rules here citing anything contrary to this.
Of all those posting here, only a handful of you are complaining against stupid posts. Maybe everyone not just you need to stop complaining and try to loosen up. Live life and enjoy. Act like a kid once in a while. It will make you fell young again.

BAZ LUHRMANN, Everybody's Free (To Wear Sunscreen)
Ladies and Gentlemen of the class of ’99…Wear Sunscreen
If I could offer you only one tip for the future, sunscreen would be it. The
long term benefits of sunscreen have been proved by scientists whereas the
rest of my advice has no basis more reliable than my own meandering
experience…I will dispense this advice now.
Enjoy the power and beauty of your youth; oh nevermind; you will not
understand the power and beauty of your youth until they have faded. But trust
me, in 20 years you’ll look back at photos of yourself and recall in a way you
can’t grasp now how much possibility lay before you and how fabulous you
really looked….You’re not as fat as you imagine.
Don’t worry about the future; or worry, but know that worrying is as effective
as trying to solve an algebra equation by chewing bubblegum. The real troubles
in your life are apt to be things that never crossed your worried mind; the
kind that blindside you at 4pm on some idle Tuesday.
Do one thing everyday that scares you
Sing
Don’t be reckless with other people’s hearts, don’t put up with people who are
reckless with yours.
Floss
Don’t waste your time on jealousy; sometimes you’re ahead, sometimes you’re
behind…the race is long, and in the end, it’s only with yourself.
Remember the compliments you receive, forget the insults; if you succeed in
doing this, tell me how.
Keep your old love letters, throw away your old bank statements.
Stretch
Don’t feel guilty if you don’t know what you want to do with your life…the
most interesting people I know didn’t know at 22 what they wanted to do with
their lives, some of the most interesting 40 year olds know still don’t.
Get plenty of calcium.
Be kind to your knees, you’ll miss them when they’re gone.
Maybe you’ll marry, maybe you won’t, maybe you’ll have children, maybe you
won’t, maybe you’ll divorce at 40, maybe you’ll dance the funky chicken on
your 75th wedding anniversary…what ever you do, don’t congratulate yourself
too much or berate yourself either - your choices are half chance, so are
everybody else’s. Enjoy your body, use it every way you can…don’t be afraid of
it, or what other people think of it, it’s the greatest instrument you’ll ever
own..
Dance…even if you have nowhere to do it but in your own living room.
Read the directions, even if you don’t follow them.
Do NOT read beauty magazines, they will only make you feel ugly.
Get to know your parents, you never know when they’ll be gone for good.
Be nice to your siblings; they are the best link to your past and the people
most likely to stick with you in the future.
Understand that friends come and go,but for the precious few you should hold
on. Work hard to bridge the gaps in geography in lifestyle because the older
you get, the more you need the people you knew when you were young.
Live in New York City once, but leave before it makes you hard; live in
Northern California once, but leave before it makes you soft.
Travel.
Accept certain inalienable truths, prices will rise, politicians will
philander, you too will get old, and when you do you’ll fantasize that when
you were young prices were reasonable, politicians were noble and children
respected their elders.
Respect your elders.
Don’t expect anyone else to support you. Maybe you have a trust fund, maybe
you have a wealthy spouse; but you never know when either one might run out.
Don’t mess too much with your hair, or by the time it’s 40, it will look 85.
Be careful whose advice you buy, but, be patient with those who supply it.
Advice is a form of nostalgia, dispensing it is a way of fishing the past from
the disposal, wiping it off, painting over the ugly parts and it for more than
it’s worth.
But trust me on the sunscreen…
i love that song

Do you believe this topic is a SERIOUS topic? Stop the stupid ap 4.0 posts? Semi official 4.0..?, Non official 4.0?
This isn't a SONG, is a LESSON I am not SINGING, no MUSIC, no *.mp3 attachments. Someone could learn, others just listen, but I believe that there is more to learn in those worlds about what's going on here, than in the 80% of the messages posted in the Athena mobile 6 3d in the last week
And IMHO it answers to many questions too!
yerp... i absolutely love that song... think of it this way, in the last week, us lot in the athena forum who are normally quiet people have all posted loads... but its still probably a tenth of the number of posts per day in the kaiser forum, and their phone is crippled.
but in all seriousness, does it matter if we are having a bit of a joke while were all pressing refresh every 5 minutes waiting for pawel to post some more info about the rom. Its better than sitting pressing f5, and not doing anything else lol
Rory
hehe nice to see a great mood here. im actually side testing 19202 to see if theres less problems with it then with 19181. so far the answer seems yes. i dont think u would mind me spending a extra day to get u all the absolute latest build right?
is that an extra day, so it would be released tonight, and the alternative tomorrow..... or is it an extra day over the already unknown release date?
either way, i dont mind

One problem with wanting us to have the latest build (and sure we want it though). There's allways tomorrow that brings an even newer build. Please don't keep us waiting on that...
well i have no new test roms so that means theres no new build yet. i think i can say with confidence this time that the rom will be out within the next week. we just need to properly test the new 19202 build for 48 hrs and fix any bugs.

A round of applause

If we could all have a moment of slience while i quote a great poet
"I'm waiting for a ROM called AP4
I don't think my F5 key can take anymore
Pawel worked his ass off, in order to get
From his beloved users, a truckload of ****
Yes we blamed poor Pawel when the ROM didn't show
Itxda put his family first, we didn't want to know
No we didn't give a hoot, about families or work
We just wanted our ROM, we acted like jerks
"Give us the ROM!" each new posting would plead
Still all that got updated, was "coming but needs..."
As each night approached, and release was not near
We drowned all our sorrows using gallons of beer
Then the torch was passed, far across the pond
Olipro's unlocker of which we're so fond
Had to be re-written so we wouldn't brick
Our beloved Athenas, still we acted like pricks
We found out Olipro and cmonex were an item
We sent them PMs, we tried hard to spite them
I wondered myself, if they ever had kids
Would they be unlocking cell phones, at night in their cribs?
Then we found out Oli had his own family issues
We acted contrite and broke out the tissues
We apologized like crazy, and said we were sorry
We saw how we were acting, well, except for Marbury
So I have learned through this, how to act mature
And realized it's okay, to wait a few days more
I know if I am patient, the ROM will arrive
and I can start screaming for AP5"
I just want to say thanks to the AP Team for ALL the roms they've put out.
Hahaha Too bad that won't fit in the shutdown message!

Or when they delivered $1500 printer in original box, with make, model, picture, etc on the box. They didn't feel like lifting it up 1 flight of stairs and left it by the door or a private house. And this is not in suburbia. It was basically sitting on a Brooklyn street.
Actually this is how my wifes Black Friday transformer was left and it has worried me since then. Since when was signature not required he norm.
Hey all if you don't mind giving me your address and estimated ship date I'll come by your place and "watch" for the package for you!!!!
He he he he

Oh damn. I forgot the world was ending next year. I may save this Prime money for heroin and escorts.

i don't know why everyone has this idea like every thread should be should be something special.
i for one am glad to know this, i doubt it will happen to mine, but ill be extra careful.
blaziner, no offense but you are definitely the worst offender when it comes to creating pointless threads...lol. I will give you credit though, some of them have been oddly, and I mean very oddly, well received. You created the 'your hype level' thread, no? That was maybe the most pointless thread I think that I have ever seen created in all of my many many years on the Internet and yes I was an adult when the Internet first became popular (barely). That said people seemed to like it and wanted to come by and say how hyped they were on a scale from 1 to 10. How can you argue with that? Carry on my pointless friend.
I should qualify this post with the fact that I have also seen some constructive posts from you as well. Maybe not threads but at least a few posts. And I don't mean this post as an insult in any way either. I know it can sound that way sometimes on these internets.
Pretty sure the world ending would void the warranty, as that is an "Act of God" and specifically excluded from coverage.

You're thread crapping and you have the nerve to talk about pointless threads and invaluable contributions? This coming from a member with 39 posts in a one year span? Perhaps you should familiarize yourself with the rules and regs before you decide to post replies like this. XDA no likey thread crappers.

[Q] Why I need 10 posts to reply, but many posts there from peoples with just 1 or 2?

This is very strange. I tried to post reply on the ICS Passion ROM thread, but then I been redirected to a page saying I need more than 10 posts before I can post there. However, there are many replies on that same thread, by peoples with just 1 or 2 post count.
Is there something I did wrong?

You need 10 posts to do it in the dev section. You should be able to reply in the general or other sections. Why they can I am not sure. Are they doing it with a computer or by phone maybe?
Thanks. I don't mind I need 10 to post if that's the rule. I just wondering why some peoples, like me, has to follow that rule, but some don't required.
It could be the date they join. Some have been here forever with little to no posts.

I believe that the cutoff is around 2009 or older. Grandfather clause. Remember when there wasn't a "thanks" button?
Oh I see..... so this 10 post rule is something new (relatively). Thanks for the explanation.
Now I just have to work hard for my 10 posts.
I always wondered the same exact thing... I noticed some dude two days ago posting in the development and had 3 posts... I think under our profile there's a referral option so maybe they got referred my an existing member. That's my guess
Took me a year to get 10 post!

10 posts is a pain, but I understand they don't want everyone mucking up the Dev threads. Sometimes they are hard enough to keep up with what is going on in them.
Still trying to come up with 10 myself

I had a cigarette for Breakfast, I wish it was an omelet... Maybe this Reese's Cup will suffice.

I quit... For a Solid Month cold turkey... I picked it back up again. I bought a e-cig once. My kid picked it up and blew into it. and killed it. I didn't buy a new one. Maybe I should try again.

if its something youre really going to consider, you have to invest in a good one. the initial investment in a starterkit will run you between $60-$90, but you ultimately save a ****ton of money AND health from there on out.
those crap ecigs from the convience store/mall kiosk are a horrible misrepresentation of the vaping world, dont buy those.
i can give you good recommendations if youre interested.

it is a huge online industry, with a alot of great products >> but unfortunately those great products are buried under a tone of inferior products...it can be like finding a needle in a haystack.
a lot of people start researching, and just get so overwhelmed that they just say "fck it, ill just go buy a pack of smokes."
ill PM you the site where i started.
I suppose my problem is never shutting up.
I'm a lurker and have been for over a year. I understand the need to have people make productive posts, but I don't want to. BLAH POOP!
Sounds good to me. I've been a lurker for a long time, but work schedule has finally slowed down to less than 50-60 hrs/wk so I might actually be able to contribute some good thoughts.
