Dev role call - G2 General

I'm looking to make a thread to get some insight on what devs have the device (also what variant). This isn't an expectation of progress, this isn't a bug fix feature request thread. It's also not a bounty thread to attract devs
It's just simply a who's here, with what thread. I expect everyone who comments to either be listing a dev, or be a dev.
I am mobile right now but my plans are to update the OP. Feel free to list the rom you are working on or anything you'd like to share

Dev Forum Requirements

Yeah, I'm about to get flamed, sorry about it. After the treatment shown recently to developers and other established and respected XDA members, as well as the closing of GOOD threads, anybody else on board for a 100 post requirement for privileges to post or reply in all development forums?

NO. I've already had reason to post in the Dev forum, and have not been able to due to not enough posts. IMO, it's pretty dumb.
I have no idea what you're talking about re: the treatment stated, however.
It'll just cause more bs in the general and less feedback to devs for their work too. Most of threads that get locked in there are not because of ppl that have low post counts. It's typically the ones with the higher counts that will do it...

That would lead to 10x more useless posts in the other sections (general, themes, etc.)

People... Think....
For one second get in the shoes of a moderator. In a site like xda which has far drifted from its original intents, everyone needs to understand that with the level of access people have today to technology and the lack of respect and good maners, it makes it very complicated to manage a site like this.
The job the moderators has is a tough one because they have to be the un-friendly people most of the time.
I don't personally agree with the 100 post for dev forum, but I do understand where they are coming from with this. Think for a second the amount of low level educated people and trolls that traffic this place? People that just like to follow their impulse and not the rules?
It's easy for us whom follow the rules to see it as a pain, but consider what had to happen in order for it to get to this place?
Let's give credits to the mods, their trying to maintain order in a city of chaos.

The 10 post thing is good for the noobs. So they don't put a question in the wrong section like a question about cases in the Dev section.
Nothing is wrong with it takes some time and reading but folks get the hang of it soon.
I wouldn't mind the 100 post thing, but not for ANY post, just specifically for creating new threads in that section.

New to xda

Why can't I post in the dev section? Do I have to be a member for a certain amount of time?

Need to have a certain number of posts. Check the forum rules

Apparently, XDA is trying their best to not appear like other forms where you have people register, ask a question, that already has a thread to - therefore the forum has the same thread ongoing. Which yes, I do see that as extremely annoying and is an interesting negating tool. But it does suck for those who generally more of an expert, or at least... more ambitious of searching for an answer? as opposed to waiting for an answer to come lol
So alas, this becomes my first post. I came aware of this when making a comment on another post you should have seen the video during registration (if you registered along time ago then check out this link)

This development is totally dead

I think the development for the Amaze has finally come to an end.
Ehh not dead. Just roadblocked

don't like the speed our friendly Dev's are working (for free), then set up your own Linux machine and start cranking out your own ROM's
Devs got lives to live too, besides Rome wasn't built in a day.

Way to waste space and be completely demeaning towards all the devs working for us at the same time.

Seriously, another one of these.... will be closed shortly

To the OP: Because you're new, I'm giving you the benefit of the doubt. With that said...
Threads like this always insult the Dev's and other members. Development is strictly on a volunteer basis. Devs are not expected to, or required to post updates, future development, mods, tweaks, hacks, etc. They do this at their pace only.
Thread Closed.

Tmobile note ¦ T879.

There are way too many topics for this phone that just launched. Especially when all pertain to the same thing the T879 radio and Rom secondary. they should be merged would be much easier than everyone asking same questions In different places.

Making this thread will not get it addressed.
Idea, gather up these thread you talk of and provide them with a pm to the Mods on your suggestion...paste them in your pm and see what the Mods say?
Take charge be the OP for all the combined thread of this topic, but ensure you have your ducks in a row when you pm the Mods for better a understanding.

Flex360?

So anyone know what happened to flex? his thread is closed, and he had a great rom just wish someone knew what happened

I done know... There is always something going on... I wish it would stop because his roms are the shiznit.

Yeah.. I feel lately that xda has banned or scared off more developers than it has actually gained...

waste of space
childish
Seems a bit childish when they decide to ban a dev they just close their threads. His stock w goodies had 899 posts so there must me plenty of members using that Rom. Members that visit this site. Without members and visitors they wouldn't be generating all the ad revenue.
Without the devs and development does xda have "anything" to attract visitors?
On the comment "xda has scared off more developement than it has gained",+1 couldnt agree more. seems to be alot of the bro deal buddie buddie s#!t going on and it kinda makes things suck. Especially for devs like flex360. I seen in a post title "if your a user just looking for a cool rom go away" well as a user ill remember that crap. And wont use it even when it is released, or any of the other crap he puts out. XDA is supposed to be about shareing knowledge and helping others obtain it. And Shareing what you have developed with the community. Not for the "this is mine and you cant have it" frame of mind. Seems that things have gotten turned around somehow at xda, and the ones who deserve to be reprimanded are being rewarded, and the ones like flex360 and others i wont mention who deserve recognition or reward are being punished. Whos next, OMJ or bigdaddy for helping and contributing too much.(just a couple names off the top who have helped me greatly in the past along with many others) At any rate, we dont know what happend with flex and maybe never will, as long as he knows theres a great many of us who are bebind him 100% and will support him in any way we can for his contributions to us. We're here for ya flex. :endrant:
*Information IS the most dangerous weapon of all*
If u read the sense 5 thread, you can see what happened, (690ish post) flex ported something to sense 5, and shared it, and didn't give credit to original mod, until a little while later. Not really sure why they locked his rom post as people may still have discussions regarding the rom.

Also seemed like all was cool with everyone afterwards so that can't be the reason. They all made up and laughed it off.

Flex just tweeted banned until may 29,
The thing I want to know why is he banned? How can they close a thread with 700k+ views? That's like lost ad revenue to them if those users say f it to xda, and if it was Over a little incident that got resolved that is unfair in all ways possible, but oh well we are user's and no one gives a @#$? About us.

There's more to it then you or I or anyone can speculate. Its between flex and the mods, he more then likely understands it and hes not complaining...if you have questions, contact a mod, if you value flex privacy, then leave it alone, let this be handled by flex, the site admins and the mods.
Sent from my EVO using xda premium
Firstly hi.
Secondly, I'm not the mod who banned flex however I can speak to why the thread was closed. It was closed due to him not being able to support it while he is banned. Same thing happened the last time he was banned.
To the scaring off developers, give me a break. I work the website as a whole and there isn't a mass exodus of great devs. If people don't abide by the rules dev or no dev they meet with consequences. Everything is taken into account before bans happen user history post history.
As for the dev thread mentioned with the title saying users don't come. I changed that thread title because users were getting upset at devs getting upset at users posting in it. The devs aren't keeping it to themselves, it's a development thread. Purely not meant for users. Like someone said this XDA developers. It's in the original dev section, yet users who have nothing to so with the project despite being told otherwise continued to post. It was stated that the sense 5 port wasn't ready for mass consumption when it is you will see a bunch of stuff about it.
Now everyone go on about your day and spend time with your family. Put your phone down for a while, step away from your keyboard.
Thanks.
