I dont know if you guys feel the same, but I just have an urge to mess up with my phone so much, install themes, play around with roms, change settings, find out about hidden settings, anything that makes me feel that I can, just for the heck of being able to do it, and I want more and more!! what about you? do yo feel the same way? are we weird or what?
No, we're human. Don't ask Steve Jobs about customizing, it doesn't compute.
//need more input.
Is this necessary for the development section?
yes very much
My name is Mark, and I'm a phone junkie.
lol, phone junkie, nice term for our sickness, jejejejeje
Yes, I suffer from this as well. I actually still flash ROMs on my Droid, just because I miss being able to do so. It's one of the few things I miss about my Droid. I hope we see Voodoo tonight or tomorrow so I have something to play around with.
Count me in with this group.
I may reactivate my incredible just to flash stuff.
Fascinate oc1.4 for now
Lmao, I'm the same way. I got this phone last friday, but I haven't rooted yet since there isn't much yet to toy with for it. I'm going nuts. I have an inactive droid and my wife is using my incredible. I flashed roms on those phones almost daily. I've got a serious case of withdraws.

We are such sick people, needing to flash stuff on our phones
I was like that with my droid eris I never backed it up or anything I was a risk taker
Till I bricked 2 of them... But luckly I lied to verizon and just said my screen wont turn on and they sent new one
I too have this disease the only difference between me and you guys is that I can quit anytime I want to. i just dont want to. OK?!?!?
But really I miss the daily ROMs maybe we could make some placebo ROMs you know they wouldn't really change anything but they would be there for those of us that just need to flash something lol
I too am a junkie when it comes to this stuff. I came from droid 1 and even with it inactive I flash stuff over wifi nonstop since we don't have much on the fascinate yet. It's an addiction!

The cool thing about android is that you can't really brick a phone cause you always have resources like RSD, and Odin at your disposal. Now when you do brick its because its your fault, you did something stupid and deserve a bricked phone. Its your fault cause you did something stupid and deserve a bricked phone. Sorry had to say that twice cause it was worth repeating.

yeah, is kind of scary when somwthing goes wrong and the phone wont boot, or is stuck in the boot screen, your heart starts to accelerate, your mind starts to work really hard, and when you fix it and you see your home screen again, you feel like some kind of power, or realization that a stupod phone wont beat you

I am by no means new to the rooting world, I have several android phones starting with the moto d1, d2, and an inc. After moving to the thunderbolt I am seeing people are having a lot of issues with rooting and what not else. My question is, is it even safe to root and flash ROMs at this time, or is it better to wait till the issues get worked out?
people who have issues are the ones who do not follow directions.

VERY old news... Nobody has conclusively got to the bottom of that issue. It's currently assumed that HTC used an off-spec eMMC chip in some of the earliest devices. Those tended to fail for some reason with the use of the original GB leak radio. I'm not sure why that thread is still stickied. The other thread relating to that was unstickied like 2 months ago.
Alot of the people I've seen that did get stuck in that boot loop, which was being called bricked, was resolved by simply flashing a different radio. I heard of some people actually having bricked devices, but not many. I am fairly new to a lot of this, in comparison to many others, but I have never had a problem that wasn't caused by my own stupidity.

Nothing in life is safe. Even breathing will kill you (eventually)
However, I do think more of the newbies that are cautious than the ones that just jump into thinks without thinking or knowing why they are rooting to begin with. So good for you Mr. OP
You will Never Know
I have not rooted my Thunderbolt (yet) but its not because I am afraid I might brick it .. I prefer to read as much as I can about it before diving in head first. I dont know if its "safe" but I do know the success rate is pretty good from what I have read, if you are not the kind to take short cuts.
I say go for it. Just make sure you do your homework first. Life is too short to live with bloatware.

well i finnaly got sick of being throttled by t-mobile. so i decided to go out and buy myself an evo 3d. seeing as how it was the same thing as my htc sensation for the most part. got it home, come to find out some stupid update that i didnt even do prevent me from using the revolutionary method to get s-off. soo i went to the htc site and found out how to unlock the bootloader. after about 2 hours of bull ****ting. and like 3 hours of just downloads (thanks to t mobile for throttled data) i got that. but s is still not off. wtf mates?! if there is any way to get s-off like i had on my sensation let me know please!!
thanks, and hope to make friends with the evo 3d peps like i did the sensation, and vibrant peps!
koz
Sorry, man.
You won't be able to get S-off after using the HTC ethod BUT!, big BUT! :
You can still accomplish everything you'd want to, root-wise.
There are workarounds for everything, that work.
So you'll still be able to Flash a custom Rom, a kernel, a Radio, with full root...
You just have to do a couple of more simple steps and use the bootloader for a couple things. There are threads in the Dev section that can walk you through it. (edit: like this one, lol:http://forum.xda-developers.com/sho...Recovery + Root + Flash Ur Ass Off! [9.11.11]
So basically the S-on you see isn't really that "on" as you might've initially thought.
That's a good thing, man.
LIKES:
drinking water, smoking flower, and avoiding the giant.
yeah.
I'd rather not use the htc method at all. I liked the ability to just flash custom roms or kernels from my phone and not have to be attached to the computer.
HTCs method allows things to be done. Its just not a great way of doing it.
I'm hoping that alpharevx and unrevoked are continuing to work on updates to the revolutionary tool they released earlier this year.
yea true that. im tempted to do an insurance claim on it. just get a new one and start over
how would you go about doing an insurance claim?
I had mine replaced in store last week, ended up with 1.5

I don't understand why people can't just wait on root. Maybe I never used root to its full potential but jeez, it ain't something we can't be without. Root Will come for ur version of hboot just like it did for all of us.
Not a personal attack on u op it is just a general opinion of mine. I waited with no problems from launch day to get root. Then two-three weeks after teamwin came out just to watch for bugs. It's nice to have all the customized roms and all but really what does it do for u other than free tether.

You clearly have absolutely no idea on the capabilities of a rooted phone. Don't fill this guys head with your misguided opinion.
I personally feel they will release and updated version of Revolutionary . The only reason I say this is mainly due to two factors . One I have seen numerous posts regarding the HTC method not working all the time and having to RUU the phone back just for the damn thing will work . Second more and more phones are now showing up with 1.50 Hboot on them . 1.30 and 1.40 is now quickly becoming a thing of the past . Just like with unrevoked an eventual exploit will be found and hopefully Revolutionary will update accordingly . Hopefully .

The real payoff is when a new version of android is released! And you get to use it for months before unrooted people!
I love root access to death and thoroughly enjoy tweaking my phone. But from launch day to when revolutionary hit I was forced to be stock. This was the first phone that I've had/used that was absolutely fine stock. It's fast, smooth, kick ass battery and everything worked great(GPS etc).

.... you tell your buddy with an iPhone " let me borrow your old incredible, I'll make you love Android again" and they trust you!

That's great when my wife looks over and catches me plugging in to get into bsr she always ask me what are you doing now. Every time I pull my battery she says what did you screw up now. And that is why I will not let you put a rom on my bionic. Even though I finally got her to admit her phone is better since I debloated it and installed v6 supercharger. Sorry off topic
Hi all.
My wife's phone recently played out for the third time within a year (D2). When they replaced it this time they sent her a completely different phone.
Well she liked my DX2 better so I got the other (sam strat) phone. I had planned on moving to another phone in the not so distant future but looks like I got moved sooner then I thought. (Still gonna get a different phone in the near future)
The DX2 community on here is incredible, and I am sure that goes without saying and everyone of you guys and gals know that! I will miss my phone and the community but it's time to move on I suppose. I wish you all the best, I am sure I will stop in from time to time to check up on things.
DK, your an awesome Dev. and I think more so then that you seem to be a super guy from what one can get to know someone else through communicating over the internet / forums. Thanks man for all your time and effort!
GL all.
Don't be a stranger and be sure to stop in from time to time. When I got my Gnex, the thought crossed my mind that I may not frequent the DX2 community as much. But I just can't let it go. Other areas here on XDA just don't offer what is abundant here. By far the best on the web, hands down.
Best of luck in your future endeavors...neighbor!

They say we're supposed to get ICS(only reps, no official updates), but won't give out any dates or anything. Oh well.

We're in second place in overall threads and as far as the amount of posts, we're in 4th place, but still. While I know this doesn't represent ROMs, it does show activity, and we're not a ghost town. So, please, stop complaining about the lack of development here on the Sprint Galaxy Note 3 forum. We're as active as can be at the moment.
Agreed. I think you and all the Dev's are doing great. Learned a lot about the phone and ODIN just from the developement going on. I appreciate all the hard work.
Agreed. This is a niche phone, and still the quality of the development here is strong, and gets better by the day.
Best to dig in and enjoy the things this phone can do as opposed to what this community lacks.

Thank you for the post freeza, the quality of what is available now is top notch. The Note 3 is already an amazing phone, so for you guys to improve it so much is a commendable feat to say the least. I appreciate all of the devs hard work and really anyone contributing in a positive manner. I know the latest onslaught of self entitlement won't ruin it for the rest, but there had been a growing sense of it in here lately.
Even if it's not necessarily an entitlement thing people just need to respect what is currently available and be grateful for it.
