The "Get workshed a New Phone" thread - Droid Eris General

Well, it's after February. Over 200 dollars were collected and given to workshed in appreciation for his work on the eris.
Wattnxt, thank you for managing the money.
For all who donated, me, watt, and shed all thank you for donating, of course.
I was gonna make this a "workshed appreciation thread" but that would clearly put down the efforts of all of the devs that worked on the eris, and i'm not here to spread the hate.

Which phone is he leaning towards?

I think the majority of the discussion is about the Rezound and the Galaxy Nexus. champdr0id moved it to this post to prevent the derailment of the development thread.
---------- Post added at 08:02 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:54 PM ----------
Thanks for getting the ball rolling, wattnxt and champdr0id! I just donated $15. I hope everyone else can follow suit. If everyone donates at least $5-$10 we can easily meet or exceed the goal. See below for wattnxt's donation link.

Or click on the "Donate to me" button in the profile section of any of wattnxt's posts.
Cheers!

That is 100% correct, we are striving to pay Shed back for all he has done for so many of us.
Let me be clear that I am in no way diminishing the work that many other devs do for us here. But for many who have been with Shed in the Eris GSB thread, and have benefited from his work, it has become personal. This is our tribute to him and all he has done without asking for anything in return.
That said. I've started a collection to get Shed a new phone. The final choice will be his, but I believe the GN and Rezound are in the running.
Since there is really no good way to do this, here's the plan...
I cleared my donation account of all but $50, which is my initial donation to the cause. All donations for the month of February go to the Shed phone fund. If there is enough before the end of the month, I will make the domain to Shed in a lump sum with the names of all who donated. If there is more at the end of the month, that is his too....call it the accessory fund...lol.
I figure we should be able to get this done relatively quickly, considering all the people GSB has reached.
Thanks Shed. As a father of 3, I understand and appreciate the hours you spend in front of the the PC helping us all.
Sooooo, to donate...click on my donate link on this site and every penny in February goes to Shed.
Thanks everyone for coming together to thank a pillar of the dev community.

Even though I want him to pick the rezound, its his choice, and I don't think he's told anyone which one he wants yet.

And this is in no way an attempt to diminish the work of other devs. Workshed just has a very loyal fanbase

Ladies and gentlemen, on day 2 the fund now sits at $75. Thanks to Champdroid, and another donor who wishes to remain anonymous.
Keep it up everyone, we'll be there in no time.

Paypal finally decided to be a *****. Gonna mess with it later, then donate.
I am interested to know what the total donation sits at though. HEY WATT!!

Just a friendly reminder, if you pledge, please don't forget to make your donation.
There has been some question on how to donate via the mobile app.
Click on my username, select more, user's profile, scroll down to paypal donation email. Tap on donation email, and it should bring up paypal with everything but your donation amount.
If you wish to remain anonymous, please state that on the notes field, otherwise your name will be added to the contributors list given to Shed when I post the lump sum to his paypal donation account.
Thanks everyone for making this possible.
As of now, the fund sits at just over $105.00. Though we currently have pledges for close to $200 so far.
Thanks again everyone for the support on this.
Still hoping he picks the GN, but hey...he could tank us all and pick the Razr....yeah right...but if he did, it's still his choice.
Thanks Shed...and everyone keep those donations coming, even $5 helps show your support for a pillar in the dev community.
Thanks,
Jay

I hope he picks the Droid Bionic. We could use some developers who have a following like this. I've never used any of his art (I consider rom developers artists) but I have to say it must have been pretty good to have people wanting to buy him a new phone as a thank you. I'm jealous, I get mass produced roms that are built on several devices and lose that personal feeling that you get when the developer actually uses the phone.

FYI, I donated directly to Workshed using his donate PayPal link.

I will donated tomorrow night.

Donation sent. Hope it helps.

Some people prefer to donate to Shed directly, and I think that is fantastic.
I know the net is a place where we are all virtual strangers.
Donation received, the pot for Shed is now up to $165.00, not counting direct donations. If we can keep this up for another 2 weeks, Shed should be able to pick any phone he desires.
Thanks everyone for making this cumulative Thanks to Shed possible.

I've seen a few devs get funds for new phones on the rezound side of the house by posting a similar thread within the new phone of choice thread.. I think workshed should decide the direction he wants to go. Then get one of those peeps to post for funds.

Cm7 on photon (closed thread)

Asking for thread to be closed.
Sometimes we fall victim to thinking each forum is the same as others. Any person who came from the evo to the photon knows how quickly a bounty thread can turn into us vs them.
us=those for bounty
them= those against bounty
Me I just rather not be involved in such behavior because at the end of the day we are all here for one thing:
CM7
lol.....
the link isn't working
I pledge 10$
The link isn't working for me either. Once it's working I'll put in $10.
Edit: craigbailey1986 is correct about t0dbld being the official Atrix porter. My bad, no hood winking by heroine addicts going on here.

I am always down to donate when someone makes something I want or feel is enough of a benefit to everyone, I don't really feel the same if I am basically paying someone ahead of time to "try" and do something. I really appreciate the many people who spend their personal time to make things work or work better for everyone. They definetly deserve the little bit of beer money they get from us.

No what was said was give up enough money to buy a couple ppl phones and "they" will try to port it. Very different then chipping in beer money for someone who made something you might use. It its called a donation because it its voluntary and all dev its done with no warranty, if you brick your phone it's on you.

I dont think you understand what a bounty is or just looking for something to complain about.... It is paying for something you want before you get it.... I am not asking for anything nor is the atrix team. He stated they would need a phone to properly port and test it for us. We must realize that I went seeking them not them just porting on their own free will.

I said let it die because, look at how many views we have on this thread and how many actually said they were willing to donate for the cause. If rinehart can get it done and he has the phone might as well just donate to him , ya know. But hey lets see what happens
I appreciate your use of capslock. It would be ironic except it is fitting. Maybe the people working on CM7 will make the official post about CM7. How about that?

I AM POSTING THIS HERE BECAUSE I AM IN COMMUNICATION WITH THE ATRIX TEAM WHO IS PORTING CM7 FOR THEM. ONCE WE REACH ENOUGH BOUNTY TO GET 2 PHONES THEY CAN BEGIN. THE MONEY IS NOT TO BE SENT TO ME BUT TO THE XDA MEMBER t0dbld.
ONCE WE HAVE A BETA VERSION I WILL CONVERT THIS THREAD INTO THE OFFICIAL CM7 THREAD.
IF THE 90 SOMETHING PEOPLE WHO VOTED IN THE POLL ON THE GENERAL DISCUSSION THREAD GIVES $10.00 WE CAN HAVE CM7 ON OUR PHONES WITHIN WEEKS!
I PLEDGE $10.00

A bounty is usually applied AFTER service is complete. You don't see bounty hunters getting paid BEFORE they bring the guy in...
boun·ty   /ˈbaʊnti/ Show Spelled[boun-tee] Show IPA
noun, plural -ties.
1. a premium or reward, especially one offered by a government: There was a bounty on his head. Some states offer a bounty for dead coyotes.
Why would we pay him before he does something when someone else could potentially do this before him? Appreciate what you are trying to do and when we get CM7, you'll see my $10.

I would just ask if you guys would look around the site. Most device dev section have a bounty thread for something someone wants and doesnt mind paying for it or paying for the tools the dev needs to start.
This thread was not about giving money to anyone for producing cm7 but helping the atrix team get a photon, so they could port cm7. As I stated before this thread can die since rinehart said he was porting it and had the phone already.

Help to XDA Dev "Task650", whose FIVE YEARS OLD DAUGHTER was diagnosed with CANCER!

Help to XDA Dev "Task650", whose FIVE YEARS OLD DAUGHTER was diagnosed with CANCER!
Here's is his (task650's) announcement :
task650 said:
I've made announcements as to why there hasn't been any updates lately in all of my threads bro. I haven't had the time due to my 5 year old daughter being diagnosed with cancer. We've recently started her treatments. There will be updates coming sometime soon. Every time I think I get a chance I end up having to deal with more important issues lately.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
The reason of this post is to raise the awareness among the XDA users about the "task650" situation . I am asking YOU an XDA user or visitor to donate as much money as you can to the "task650. "
His baby girl is diagnosed with cancer and I want YOU to help her to fight this uneasy battle! The medical treatments for her sickness are very expensive and by donating even ONE dollar, YOU will help this five years old girl to win over the cancer! I am not writing this on behalf of "task650, " it is my personal initiative! Being as a member of XDA forums and Android community in general, I feel that it is my responsibility to help the people who are in need as never before.
Here is the link for donations:
Paypal donation email: [email protected]
To "task650": brother, your daughter will get better, especially when there are so many people who are praying for her! Please forgive me for my personal initiative if I offended you by any means!
Donated. Although I've never personally used his ROMs, he's one of us and deserves every bit of help we can offer. This post has been viewed on the upside of 20+ times, I hope everyone is donating as much as they can; even if it's only a little. We're a community and I think we should act like one. Happy I could finally return the favor to a dev to offers so much to us.

[BOUNTY] thederekjay - ROM & Kernel Developer

To All, Let's get clear what kind of bounty thread is acceptable and what is not :
A bounty thread that is posted for anyone to claim should they solve a problem or provide a fix is Acceptable.
A bounty thread like this which is to provide a person money or specific team money...etc IS NOT ACCEPTABLE........
THEREFORE...... THIS IS CLOSED AND DO NOT POST A BOUNTY LIKE THIS AGAIN......
THANK YOU ••• MODERATORS
I used the T989 (S2 for T-Mobile) before switching to the note and I must say that his guy is one of a kind and would be a great asset to the i717 dev community.
His T988 ROM (Darkside) is very popular as well as his kernel (Darkside Kernel). Used by 7+ different roms.
I managed to talk to him via PM about helping us out and would contribute if only he had the device.
I will be collecting the funds on his behalf and paying the rest needed for the device within a week or two tops so he can start developing
He's a great guy so please let's not piss him off with ETAs and unnecessary requests.
Lets set our goal at $750 for a new one from Bestbuy or $550 used from craigslist/ebay.
I'll start the bounty with $50 and will pay for the rest for a device after two weeks tops.

First off, no disrespect for you in this post, thederekjay, don't know your work, I'm sure you're great.
But OP, your thread title is disrespectful to the devs working on the Note today. Just because you have a favorite dev/rom on another phone/etc, doesn't mean you should post with that sort of slant. Devs are taking enough crap here lately for no reason.

He has created some amazing roms/kernels/tools for the t989.
I know people in the t989 forum would get this phone just because he's deving for it.(which may not be a good thing based on how things turned out)
Good luck...I had a troll get the bounty someone set for me, deleted...
TDJ...Nice to see u still at it
Honestly goodluck where ever u go man.
I ordered a Galaxy Nexus a few hours ago.

Wait your saying you WILL buy him a device regardless of how $$ you receive ?

It doesnt matter how the money is received IMO. As long as donations are for a good cause (Hence Getting TDJ here) then it shouldnt be a problem. People get burned everyday with money, people donate to even "greater real world causes" and get burned, its the way it is, not saying that thats how it should be.
I had no intentions on development for this phone until yesterday night when a few guys insisted that they wanted me to dev for it. They started a bounty the same as this one. I didnt have anything to do with what happened to you all with these other guys that came in and did nothing "per say", so it was not fair at all for my thread to get deleted, nor trolled. I thought the rules were "A dev couldnt ask for money to get his/her a device"
But anyways, im donating 10$ to TDJ Because he is loyal and he works very hard, i have much respect for the man. His Rom was very great, not to mention I even used his kernel and advertised his super wipe script in both of my ROM threads.
Last time im gonna be here...Good luck TDJ

No need to add my name to the list. I just want this phone in more dev's hands. This is by far the best phone I have ever had and we need more dev's on this platform.
This phone is why I don't use my tablet anymore. Makes you think about why apple doesn't want a phone with a larger screen.

Has Hawknest committed to developing for the DNA if he indeed does get a phone?

I understand completely. However, on the other hand, i started a bounty on the x+ for viper rom. Goal is already reached, and phone is in mail to turge, the dev. All within a week. So u see, some of us really are only trying to "CONTRIBUTE" and make this community the best it can be.
I put emphasis on the contribute, because i was recently denied "RC" title! Even though i played a huge part in bringing jelly bean to the one xl, and recently, in my opinion played a big time part in bringing the most innovative sense rom in history to the x+.
So u can see my frustration......no? Lol
I understand jcase, and no disrespect towards u at all. Im using the DNA, and because of u, im unlocked.....that sir......is contributing in its finest!

im pretty sure any senior mod can grant the title, if you felt you were denied unfairly...you could probably just apply to another one and further detail why you think you deserve it :fingers-crossed:

Fund raisers and bounty threads are a tricky thing, because although they are frowned upon officially, there are very rare instances where they are allowed. So long as they stay within a few very specific guidelines.
In general, if you wish to donate to someone please do so, but only because you wish to show your gratitude for their hard work and the time they've put towards helping the community. Donations should not be given expecting anything in return.
When you start giving giving devices and money in return for something it changes from a donation to you buying a service. Which is both against the forum rules and starts attracting undesirable people.
TL;DR: Donate out of gratitude and anyone you donate to is under no obligations to do anything in return for it.

Freeza needs our help!!!

Whats up fellas.. As you know, Freeza, the only dev working on the edge right now needs some help. Freeza doesnt have the Edge.. He ended up selling the phone on eBay and recouped some cash.. Now, in order to keep this talented dev on our team he will need a device.. Thats where we come in. I decided to make this thread to come up with some relief for our dear friend.. Now, i located a mint device on swappa, which means we don't need too much.. Im asking this great community to kick in for our great dev and my friend..
I am going to start the donations with 40$. He already has a paypal so he will get the donations directly. Once he hits the goal, he'll post his gratitude in this thread. The faster we get the funds together the quicker he can make some more revisions to his rom.. So lets do this fellas!!! Hes got most of the funds covered so all we need is 200.. With my 40 that makes 160. Not too much to ask for the talent this man has!! ?
Donations here.. [email protected]
I will revise this thread with the names of everyone who donated if they want recognition. Or you can just post to this thread with your donation amount..
Goal: 160
Z31k - 40
I know this doesn't help now but on Wednesday I'll donate

Just to reiterate, donations are appreciated. They do not warrant any type of guarantee. While we appreciate the gesture, that is basically what it is.. A kind gesture. I donated to a friend that I would love to keep on this specific device.. I didn't make this thread to rip people off.. I didn't create this thread to ramp up bad blood between anyone.. I created this thread because i believe in the talent Freeza has. Because I'm going to stick with whats still the best phone out there. And i want to see what else Freeza has up his sleeve. I'm very excited to have him on our side.
Bottom line, if you want to keep Freeza dev-ing on this device and don't mind helping him get a minty fresh Note Edge, and can spare some funds.. Then your gesture is appreciated. Thank you for your donation. Thank you for helping Freeza out!!
I wish I could. I sent him a bit of money during the development process for the ROM, but it was nowhere near enough to compensate him for the time he spent on it. I'd send more, but I'm exceptionally broke at the moment.
