Looks like more negativity then positivity to me.... i think it just might affect us, if their ignoring,shafting and trolling contributers whos going to want to contribute? Looks like CM has joined my ignore rom list alongside Flex360........ oh well, they come and they go and more devs come & create greatness

Yup, looks like AOSPA, AOKP, and others will be where the actions at!

I keep trying the links from OP and they just go to androidfannetwork with links for apartment hunting, what's new in Vegas, etc. :what:

I think they accomplished what we would all hope for profitability. Doesn't make the tech they put into the now called products they build any less just means they have to play by a different set of rules and the challenge to produce the same quality of work will be impacted. Sure as users we will lose and gain some features. I just hope they don't forget how they got to where they're at and start charging us or worse stop free rom development.

That's what I'm thinking. CM isn't going to be free anymore.

I'm pretty sure its illegal to sell something that's free/open sourced. CM cannot use android and make a Rom and then sell it. Android is open source.
Sent from my EVO using Tapatalk

True yes but then they are Inc. which means as soon as they are contracted to make a retail phone rom then why would they keep making a free rom. It maybe open source but open source does not mean free. May mean that you can use the codes libs and so on for your own development but if it were free red fedora and Ubuntu wouldn't be making money.
KillerofJoy's i535 Rocking MOAR, and CM 11. Can't be helped, flash junky.

I don't believe it would be a bad idea.

Why do people complain.

Hello I am here to, ask why people are complaining about cyanogenmod? They are working hard for us right now. This is brand new hardware and Slayher has 5 kids and a wife. There are more important things then a phone. This is more to support him then ask a question. We have plenty of great roms out and people need to chill. I'm all for being excited but don't bother them for it. Who wants a broken rom? And who wants to work on a phone instead of seeing there family.

Hahahha see i always enjoy humor on forums but when people get all high and mighty it ruins the point of having an open phone and a forum. It's to have fun and help others get to your level of fun. If the rom has pre alpha there's going to be problems and he has no reason to support that rom. He did us a favor. We got a small taste of it to hold us off but you get those greedy people wanting more.

Some people can't just sit back and enjoy the fruits of others' labour without telling them they need to pick their fruit faster. Sad but oh-so-true.
It's just what they do
Everyone needs to complain about something cause life sucks and everyone's misery must be spread to another. Misery loves company.

5 kids and a wife? Sounds like free labor to me, lol. I only have a wife and I haven't even had enough time to put a full theme together let alone a full Rom port.
Some people seem to think that they deserve something just because they are them, should just be happy they got what they got. I know I sure am after coming from a locked down droid 2 global with virtually no dev. support.
I hope Cyanogenmod And Slayher understand that there are only a few people who are being idiots about it

Honestly i really REALLY want to get into developing but i have no idea where to start while a lot of free time, if you or any developer would like to be my mentor i would appreciate it more than anything! I just got this phone awhile ago and honestly am extremely smart, just graduated 1 nd 1/2 years early out of highschool so i dont think it would be too hard at all for me to catch on! I would LOvE to help! Ill eventually try donating as much as possible (could be anywhere from 10-800$) just depends on other things

Miui is me, ebbinger_413, and sky24987, and maybe more
I am a software dev. I use to dabble in linux kernel stuff. I also use to work with precentral on webos for original pre -. I am in a 4G area. I have been working on some old g tablet stuff. I always wanted to get into android dev but it just keeps getting away from me. Only problem is I only have one photon and its my only phone. Good news is I have no problem doing any testing as long as its possible to revert back. I would be up for any project. I want to see this phone used to it's full potential.

Looking for people to help create custom rom

No, im not a noob that wants to know how to create a custom rom. I would actually want to create one, but the job seems pretty tough for one person. I wanted to organize a team of people (no name yet) to help create a custom rom- a rom that blows the minds of evo 3d users. its no easy task, thats why im looking for experienced users to help me create one.

Can you show us something you've developed so we can see that you aren't actually a noob hoping for a freeride on a dev team? I don't mind noobs at all and I admit I don't really know much about anything when it comes to developing, but if you're acting like at a developer when in fact, you aren't, then that would be a problem.
Now, you should be a bit more specific.
Do you plan to develop for GSM or CDMA?

No where in his initial post does he say don't talk about it. Plus no offense but he can't stop someone from making a post on another forum about it.
This "treat" keeps wiping my MicroSD card on boot.
/sigh
It could mean don't post the ROM itself anywhere or don't mention it outside of the BAMF forums. Either way he has one of the two pretty strictly posted in the op. Not bashing on anyone for defending it being brought to light but don't be ignorant to the fact that he might not have wanted his own personal ROM spread out yet

My memory is a little fuzzy seeing as how this happened a while back, but there was and still is proof if the mods have not deleted everything. Just because you have had positive experiences with some of their devs does not mean they are all good or even that most of them are good upstanding devs. There is no reason for that type of attitude either, if you cannot act like an adult and discuss things without attacking others then you should just leave the thread.
Unless you know exactly what you are talking about and were there when it happened, the phone being pretty much stolen, you may want to take your own advice.

Joelz has taken phones from people donating only to not release ROMs, drop the phone support and then go to sell them for profit. He is a part of team bamf still yes?
How about you STFU since they have had the proof of him doing so and turned a blind eye. I haven't supported team BAMF since the thunderbolt and won't long as they keep Joelz.
