Where did my thread go? - G2 General

I started a thread here in this forum earlier today stating that the G2 is an awesome phone. Someone else chimed in with similar thoughts.
I visited back here a few hours later and the thread is gone.
Is it against forum rules to communicate why you think the G2 is a great phone?
Please advise!

The first place I went was my list of threads.
The thread in question was removed - there's no sign of it.
I went and pulled up an email alert that someone responded to my thread. In that email is a link. The link is broken.
Moderators? Why pull down a positive thread about the G2??

Here's my post that was taken down. Someone point out what's wrong with this post....
I've been an Android fanatic from the start, and came to the G2 in early November 2013 from a totally tweaked-out Galaxy Nexus. I don't want to admit the time I spent over the years with custom ROM"s, custom kernels and endless tweaks.
Enter the G2.
I keep this phone bone stock - never considered rooting it. I have to say that it's been a pure joy to own and use. I was a bit frazzled with the early "erratic touch" issues with the screen, but VZW/LG addressed that for my G2 in an update.
I find the phone to be fast as hell, the screen is nothing short of gorgeous, call quality is excellent, the overall phone design is beautiful, and I actually like - and count on - some of the LG included apps. The battery life is unbelievable, which is especially remarkable given the size of the screen.
So, for me, the G2 is a breath of fresh air after years of futzing with Android phones. IMO, it's an amazing phone that continues to be a blast to use without any of the downsides of my previous Android phones.
Had to share some G2 love.​

It was probably pulled because it was pointless drivel.

Maybe ... some guys complained that when the thread has been opened the ROM was not released.
Err that was resolved. The Author deleted the original thread and created a new one. Something else went down.

He took the first thread down without an explanation which was pretty rude. If he has taken down the second thread without leaving an explanation....now that would be inexcusable. It does not take much to leave a post explaining the reasons rather than leaving people high and dry.
Though he seems to be enjoying this rom. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=15284823&postcount=3759
Perhaps he is out partying and spending his donations
Why be so quick to automatically assume the worst in people? He probably took it down for a reason and I assume it will be back up soon. I followed the thread closely and there didn't seem to be any problems/turmoil.

The reason he took his first thread down was because of the pathetic prepubescents who were complaining about a lack of progress, late ETAs and other such stuff. He took it well and even apologised - something the majority of posters on that thread didn't deserve - in fact most deserved a slap.
His ROM - he can do what he likes with it, AFAIK. "Pretty rude"?? Live with it. The high and dry people can always choose another ROM. Or make their own....
What about the people who donated so that he could keep developing, read his sig...

i must say I consider it rude not to at least leave a message as to why its been deleted. That said having posted mods and a rom myself over the years the public exceptions are very high and ask alot from the cook. I know that 1.1 did not go smoothly..... maybe he could not be arsed?

Is this a fact or have you just made this up. Where did you read this?
And those that donated towards the further advancement of the rom will perhaps think twice before giving money again to him.
what a pr*ck, i donated £20 to him!!
hate people like him...
The guy honestly doesn't seem like a prick at all, so it's either coming back with a bang or he can't be bothered anymore. That's his decision. Personally I would only donate to a dev after they've shown commitment in the way of releases. This was only at 1.1.

I read it on said thread, I'm not making it up. TBH, I can't remember if he pulled it himself or the mods did.

A request to the Android community...

I have been around since the beginning of android. I Had a G1, then a Nexus One, to a MT4G, and now a Rezound. I rooted every one (minus the rezound obviously) and frequented the forums, learning and discussing the Mod'ing of these devices. As these past years have gone by, I have grown more and more concerned with the direction the community has taken.
Now there has always been at least some drama within the community, but as Android has grown in popularity, and more users seek info in the forums, the drama has ramped up exponentially it seems.
I remember when it was more about info than ego...
My request: Can we please get back to what its really about? Mod'ing, Flashing, and fun. Lets leave our egos at the door, they only do more harm than good. A sense of community and mutual respect is what we should strive for.
No personal insults/attacks be respectful even in disagreements
Don't steal code... give credit where due
Don't be a troll
Don't flame someone just for ignorance (if they seem to be habitual in forum misuse tell a mod so they can investigate and they can handle it appropriately)
Expect nothing, make no demands, ask politely... this goes for all sides
Remember this is a hobby and just for fun for most of us. Replace the fun with drama and what is the point.
I am sure there are other things I could list, but that will do for now.
Edit: resurrected from the dead...
Just so you guys know... Nobody is owed anything. No Dev owes you ROMs, root, or anything else. Vice versa, no user owes a Dev anything for their work. (paid market apps excluded) The rooting community is a hobby based entity. We work on respect and a mutual love of the platform. Donations are voluntary but a good idea. (It makes Devs feel appreciated)
Another thing... Drama... It kills the community. It runs off users and Devs alike. It creates a hostile environment that no one wants to deal with. When a device looses Devs it can be a death nail to the further development for that device.
When you think "just my one little question on ETAs won't be a big deal, I'll PM/IRC/tweet/IM the dev" you have to remember... about 100 other people are thinking the exact same thing. Its one thing to pop in the ROM's thread and if you don't see any activity for several days/a week, to post a quick question like "how is it going?", as dealing one one question and being able to answer publicly so others benefit too is not a big deal... Just don't get upset if the answer is a simple "we are still working on it" Often times there is a lot of effort put in but no real progress to report, no landmark goals yet made.
When you take the ETA/update questions into areas like IM that you start getting several people an hour pestering someone with the same question and it gets old...
^^^^^that's what it should about. But u got so many newbies here (and we all started somewhere of course) it seems as of the trolling and such come from New people not understanding the aspect of the site. But I k.ow I'm wasting my time typi.g his. Hope it happens.

When I first started coming here, it was all about the phones. Helpful people, friendly community, the works. After a while it just seemed to deteriorate. Every other thread was a flame war. It got to a point where i'd rather rack my brain or scour Google before I'd ask a question in here, because I knew some ego tripping person with no manners was gonna try to flame me for asking a simple question. A little respect/courtesy can go a long way, whether if ur helping someone or being helped.

Thank you for this post. +1000000000
I would like to see a rule enforced regarding swearing and overly aggressive, or hateful language.
I understand that phones can be frustrating, and so can users. But, if you can't post in a helpful and friendly way, you probably shouldn't post at all.
Temporary (and the threat of permanent) banning should be used to keep those in line who do not have the self control to handle posting in a respectful manner.
I wouldn't worry too much. With the Galaxy Nexus going on sale today, most of the babies crying that they can't unlock/root their Rezound are most likely in line right now to exchange their Rezound for the Galaxy Nexus. That should weed out many of those who do nothing but complain here in the Rezound threads.

Not trying to start anything or flame anyone, but isn't it the Mod's job to determine whether a thread is posted in the wrong area and move it accordingly? It just seems that if you come behind someone who took the time to start a thread and tell them that its in the wrong place, you come off like a smart Alec and thus animosity begins. Not saying that u are, just saying some ppl get off on that and only that. Once again, not trying to start anything, just my two pennies.

It is their job, I was just saying what I think but I realized that I didn't put the phrase "I think " in that first comment. It was and still is a suggestion before some people flame him cause it is in this forum. Also, if he wants to get that message out, its towards the whole community, not just people in the Rezound forums, know what I mean. Didn't mean to sound like a smart Alec ='(.

Yeah, I considered putting this in the over all general forum, but I am seeing so much craziness here in the Rezound forums that I thought it was needed here the most. I might throw it up in the Android general section if you guys think I should.
I love this phone, but I am getting impatient for root.
It is mostly the battery life issue. I hate extra batteries with a passion and hate needing to charge during the day as well. I am a light user, I just game a few minutes during breaks, send a few messages through the day and a few random things here and there. I really only have a smartphone for the convenience that it brings and the fact I like the Android OS and followed it since early 2007. With my MT4G even on a heavy use day (for me) I would have 40% left when I went to bed and charged, usually it was around 60%. With the larger screen and dual cores, I don't expect the same, but I know it will be better with cyanogenMOD on it. I can get through the day, but just barely, and that is on my lightest days.

Picked up a SGII

Ordered a SGII on Friday for $9.99 with the Fathers Day promotion ATT had running.
It arrived a couple of hours ago and has been charging. I haven't even turned it on yet. This is to replace a Captivate I've had for 22 months that I dropped on Thursday night and broke the LCD. I'd been dealing with a broken glass since the phone was 4 months old so it was definitely time for an upgrade.
I had Continuum Themed on the Captivate for over a year. Worked really well. Obviously rooted, unlocked and unlocked the market. Opened up tethering and had deleted all the bloatware. Also had modified battery info icons for the status bar. I'm looking to do something very similar with the SGII but I read that the author of the Continuum has stopped creating new roms.
I have to read up and get back into modding, as I mentioned, its been over a year since I last flashed a rom. Are there any former Captivate owners here?
Something occured to me, when setting up the new phone you have to agree to the new terms and conditions to register the phone on the network. If I flashed it and used my old sim card, would I need to register it on the network? I didnt have to do that to an unlocked Nokia that came over from the UK that I had for a few years. I put in my sim card and was able to make calls as soon as it had booted.

Then you should reread the OP.
I clearly stated I hadn't even turned the phone on yet. I am saying hello to fellow SGII users and introducing myself. I asked if there where any other prior Captivate users, thus a common ground, inciting conversation about users experiences with the 2 phones, and I mentioned that the rom I was using isn't supported, thus also inciting conversation about which roms SGII users prefer/are using/have had experience with.

Good day douche. Yea I'll prolly get infracted, but your worth it.

If we dont talk about stuff, how are we expected to grow and learn as a community? You should also note that at no point did I ever say which rom was "best." I asked for users experiences. Totally different.
And reminiscing about the past? Seriously?
If you have nothing constructive to add here, then sod off. Otherwise pipe down and grow up.

you are going to get flamed for this. There is no reason to attack anyone. If you had searched, you would see tons of threads that have been locked because they asked for "what rom should I use...". Dont ask ... Just flash and find out yourself.

"Downloading", Really?!

Maybe I'm just getting grumpy in my old age, but do we really need to post, "downloading", every time a new ROM version is released? It's hard enough to get through threads that are multiple pages, without having to sift through the, "downloading", pollution. It serves no purpose. You may as well tell everybody what you had for breakfast, while you're at it. How about we all make a New Year's resolution to cut down on frivolous posts? Rant over, thanks for listening, carry on.

At least it's in it's own thread, and not polluting someone else's. See, the thing is, from the title, you probably could get an idea what this thread is about, and decide if you want to read it or not, but if you're trying to get information on a ROM, 100 posts that say, "downloading", are no help whatsoever, but hey, thanks for sharing.

Using Bliss Pop. The performance of Lollipop goes a long way to overcome the lack of customization. I see CM12 has gotten the camcorder fixed, so I'm sure the other ROMs will have it shortly.

I used to, until I realized that if they won't read what has already been posted, they probably won't read what I post in response, so I don't.
My favorites are the ones that post a question in the middle of the night, and then three hours later, start to complain that no one has answered their post. Those I DO respond to.
A close second are those that are TOO LAZY to use simple punctuation and capitalization of their sentences when they ask for help. Apparently they feel that even though we are doing them a favor in helping them, we should also have to figure out what their mumbling are, because they are TOO LAZY to spend a few extra seconds to be clear. Needless to say, such individuals seem to have greater difficulty with their devices than the rest of us; I wonder why that is ...

Sometimes I post questions at 2am. And I don't get mad...normal people are asleep. Lol. If its a pressing issue, I google If its somewhat severe, I do a restore. I backup before everything. Everything else can wait. WHY CANT PEOPLE JUST WAIT. I'm currently waiting. I want a 100% working aosp. And it doesn't exist yet. Most devs aren't worried about kk now. Its all l.p. which I love. But it's so buggy. So I wait. I'll ask maybe once a week or so "what's the bugs in the newest build" and I wait...and data is still iffy? Okay. I'll wait.

Just had one in the LG G3 forums:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/help/usb-internet-mode-verizon-t2969583
Threads like this are exactly the reason I tend to avoid speaking up at all in any of these forums. They tend to be a full of cliques where you're either part of the "in" crowd of "smart" or "experienced" people or just another stupid noob who either doesn't know how to read or are "too lazy" to search. How about you guys either just answer the questions or keep your smart mouths shut. There's no need to belittle or insult someone just because they're not as "smart" as you are. I've had my say, so I'll go back to quietly perusing the forums....

Feedback from A2017U Nougat preview

Hola
Many of us I know signed up, most of us did not get in due to limited space. Bottom line there must be a few out there that got it. I am not sure of the so called NDA that was required, but I am hoping some can provide some very high level feedback.
1. Generally stable? Enough at least for usage as your daily driver?
2. How close to stock Android is it? For example, same battery management interface? Onscreen buttons? Minute vibration controls? Camera improvements?
3. Root available? I saw from some pictures issued on the ZTE Chinese forum showing a warning about having rooted device on a Nougat preview.
4. Any noticeable improvements in cellular reception? Actual dBm values would be nice.
It is just to give us a indication that ZTE US is at least not only bringing Nougat to our phones BUT the skinning and functionality and stability is ok.
I'm surprised the firmware itself has not leaked already.
Hello, I have Nougat and can provide some feedback from it.
I'd love to hear as well

Watch out, people are already complaining on Z Community about what had been said.
According to one of the testers it is still MiFavor. Wow, can't believe I was fooled into thinking they actually cared with their "stock android discussion". Guess I have to flash CM and live with its bugs.

Where are they complaining? It's not me right?
I can't even be sure it isn't me. Check out the help and assistance thread.

Okay that post is before I came on here, so it's not me at least.

The 7.0 ROM has been in works for months. They released an early preview (screenshots) to the Chinese forum months ago -- of course it was still going to be MiFavor. The discussion poll about stock android for R&D was literally only like 2 weeks ago. If people think ANY company can just turn on a dime like that, then they clearly don't understand how companies work or how software is developed at that level.

I was one of the people complaining and I don't regret it. They're going to cancel this if you all don't shut your mouths unless ruining this for everyone is your thing. In which case, keep it up.
Moderator please close this thread as well.
This is not your thread... Not that anything is really going on in here anyway.
+1 on closing this thread.
Don't complain ZTE doesn't listen to us or play by the rules, when they are reaching and the first thing you do is break trust.
Earn it first, then complain after that.
+1 closing this thread
Why close this thread? This has no real bearing on the ZTE beta. If someone on the test panel screws up, that's on them. It's totally legit to be curious about the new OS. IMO anyway.

Thread closed. Sorry guys, but if the testers signed an NDA, then there is no point to thus thread. NDAs are legally binding contracts and a breach may invite legal action avainst involved parties... For everyone's sake, lets close this and respect the NDA..
