Why can't MIUI Roms be posted posted in here?
I think its because MIUI doesnt want it posted any where but the MIUI site. had the same problem at the G2x threads.. but someone managed to get a thread and link up and keep it up, some how..lol
They can be posted, just not the one from Trip as he's banned from here
Yes, as the poster above me has stated, this ROM is not allowed on XDA, I have to close the threads referring to MIUI, he has expressly asked that it not be posted on XDA.
I am not allowed to let it on unless he has given permission, if memberskeeep posting this it is violating our rules meaning that I have to give out a lot of infractions. If he gives permission, I will happily re-open these thread if this is OK with the Admins.
If anyone has any questions, send me a PM or let me know in here
Thanks Guys

I'm running it now!!!!!! Been looking for a good Sensless rom and MIUI has just fitted the bill nicely

This only applies to the port by Trip though right, any other MIUI port is allowed? There are a couple of ports for the Desire S:

Yes, Trip has asked us specifically not to allow his ROM on here, other MIUI roms that are not by him are fine, and his is also fine if he says that it is allowed on here

Wait.. So if I want to download MIUI for my phone, where do I find it? The MIUI site doesn't list Sensation in the devices list, and the links here have been removed..
Google it - it's not hard if you know the site Paul O'Brien runs...
And MIUI have said they are probably going to do an official version for the Sensation soon

I wait for this. I try some of ver but have some serious bug on my sensation!
He's kicked out some real kick ass ROMs in a short period of time. MIUI is running VERY well. Totally worth it.
Something tells me that Trip has no problems with his ROM being posted on XDA (with all credits to him, of course), but that's only me, I won't talk instead of him. Too bad because his ROM is faster than any other around here, even it is still beta. Come on people, let's make a deal here and enjoy our Sensations

AFAIK Trip had no problems with the thread here at XDA and just didn't want mirrors posted, seeing as the thread was just a link to his original thread and seeing as he okay'd it, I don't know why the thread was closed down anyway.
Can you give me the link for the miui rom by Paul O'Brien please?
Thanks

I'm pretty sure he does mind. Quote from his current thread on Modaco:
Dont misunderstand me, i dont have a problem with sharing it, i do have a problem with sharing it to a place that kills everything that have something to do with me. That is not how a community should be. Even users who support me there get bashed, they are going to wrong way there.. They always had a great community where you could learn alot and everyone was excepted in there own ways.
There where alot of users helping each other, now the mods control the place on there personal likings. And people just take whatever they need to get more attention then another.
I want to help as much as i can, but giving everything for free to a community that fights against me.. no sorry thats a no go.

This isn't going to go anywhere so I will basically just chime in since this has greatly affected me personally. Trip basically is unhappy how users such as myself get trashed for even mentioning his ROM, on XDA. I basically was trying to help a user yesterday, and I mentioned I was using Trips ROM, but was going to offer my help with an installation of an app he had an issue with. I posted a link to that app, and instead of the moderators here seeing I was NOT posting any links to the ROM, but rather to an app, I was trashed by several users saying that I should know better, and then was forced to delete references. I never posted any direct link to Modaco nor his ROM. The link was to an app, I simply googled. Suffice it to say, after posting more than 3100 threads here and helping out literally with 100's of users over the last two years with my Nexus one and now Sensation, I probably at least in the near term will basically help over at Modaco and move on for a while from here. The attitudes of many here totally sour the situation. Especially on a phone that has lack support for so long and has finally gotten to the point of enjoyment with development, past the same old same old copies of Sense Roms we see here from day one. All the developers here brag they have the fastest, slickest, ad nauseum same old Sense ROMs that for the most part are just clones of each other. Sure, I might be offending a lot of the hard working OPs here and I will say I'm sorry I had to make such a statement, since I know a lot of hard work goes into any of this. But now we finally are seeing CM7, and MIUI opening up on the Sensations doorstep and because of the piss and moaning going on here with Trip over issues from the past, we end up with being either near banned, threatened with points actions, told we must delete references that have zero to do with his ROM, but they are afraid that some will just "think" that there are links. The hysteria after yesterday really left a sour taste in my mouth and many other fellow long time XDAers I speak with all the time, that have all basically PMed me stating they could NOT believe how I basically was trashed on a thread here.
Anyways, just wanted to speak my peace. This is NOT on a development thread so hopefully I won't have threats coming at me for speaking my peace. The actions here only hurt a community as a whole.

You can read there " the thread by t0ny0 in the xda development area is the useful one" ... Does anyone need more proof that he in fact didnt mind the idea of his rom being here?
And even with that - thread was closed. Not cool.
We have the proof that he approves, and still closed...

edit* side note, miui goes against the entire spirit of cm by kanging cm source then redistributing it closed. i think it should be banned completely.

Hello.
Today I was messing around with ROM Manager v2.0.1.6, went into "Download ROM", then "Extras", and saw two different ROMs available for download.
One being, "Superuser 2.2.2 cd Cupcake/Donut" and the other being "Superuser 2.2.2 ef Eclair/Froyo"
Anyone know what this is about?
I have a Samsung Captivate that has been rooted.
Thanks!
It's just an update to the Superuser application here is the link to xda article which has the thread link in it.
http://www.xda-developers.com/android/superuser-app-updated-to-version-2-3/
I forgot to mention I just updated it on my Nexus One and it looks great it is very cleaned up. I haven't gotten to my Captivate yet, but then again just got off work and still running the daily xda ritual of skimming through XDA threads and updating/downloading/flashing mods. I will let you know how it looks on the Captivate, but I am sure it is exactly the same as the Nexus One and it looks great def a good upgrade, but then again ChainsDD always does a great job on Superuser.
....and one more thing my friend you really should think about asking questions like these in the "Captivate General" so this section doesn't get bogged down as it is really hard for people to have to go through hundreds of threads. You might want to check out the Forum and Market Place Rules admin mikechannon did an awesome job of creating a thread that explains things a little better. Give it a read and please don't take my reply the wrong way just looking after my fellow XDAers. mikechannon has currently taken on the job as admin and this place has been out of control so let others know as well cause he really is doing an awesome job! Here is the link give it a run through

That's odd, all other devices to my knowedge have a Q/A section for questions...But the captivate only has a General...
So yes, gk527, post Questions in the general section, it really does help
I've tapped ATW to move it for us
Sorry for the misplacement. I figured since it was Android development based, I'd ask here.
Thanks for the information!

I actually did the exact thing when I got my Nexus One a few months back. It happens to all of us I hope you didn't take my advice the wrong way. There are a lot of people that are really rude and won't put up with it so I thought I would let you know. Like the other guy said welcome to the community.

it's just too much needless thread
you made 4 new threads in the last few days with leaked ROMs
are you working on them?
if not, than leave them. Devs, who want to make some Sense 3 port or 2.3.4 port, they usually know the 911sniper blog well
and one was the cha cha, thats a mdpi phone made just for facebook things, so pointless here
Guys, please stop flaming this guy for posting the leaks here. He just may have thought it might be useful to the devs.
I think he now knows that it most likely is not.
I appreciate his enthusiasm tho, even tho I know the devs already use the 911 blog.
appreciate you posting these rom leak's but please check if it could be ported to DHD or it is use full in any way in porting sense 3.0
We have too many rom's as it is running sense 3.0 non yet to become stable

it's nice, that he wants to help the devs by letting them know, that there are new leaks, but there are somuch thread in dev section, that sometimes you can find your ROMon the 2nd, 3rd page
it should be more organized
for ex. making one thread, and just change the name when there is/are a new leak or new leaks
and in my opinion it's not development, as nobody is working on porting these. It's not a dev who created a thread to get help from other people to port something, it's more like news

Thats the first the i noticed comming from WinMO dev. Winmo chefs are helping eachother out alot. Ive learned from the greatest and ive shared alot of info and helped trying to keep the community strong.
Switching to Android an open source OS i expected everything to be easier and friendlier but sadly its not the case.
Chefs are competing and not willing to share or help out.
Winmo dev forums have pre made kitchens, tutorials etc.
Tons of Dev topics here but as soon as a dev question is asked its ignored or treated like youre asking about a x-file.

funny. i have observed again the opposite. there are several new cooks here that got pretty fast help from anybody. in my case the only chef here that still enver replied to a pm was capychimp (not meant as offense, who knows why he didn't).
there never was an "inner circle".
but i must admit, that is what i observed during the past, myself not trying to start a rom myself. but i saw severel doing this.
but your claim only based on this small experience is to say the least very exagerating and provocative. to conlude that the devs here are not helping out and sticking to a inner circle just because you had bad luck with some pms is a bit... well you know what.
p.s. if you want a kind dev i can very recomend you lee.
Hey there everyone.
I'm from the Vibrant section, and I have some questions for you Galaxy S 4G users, please do know I searched around, but I thought it'd be best to have all the information anyone had on this particular topic all in one thread, so if anyone feels this is useless, feel free to delete it, I'm just trying to gain some knowledge. My girlfriend has a GS4G, and although the devs have done a great job modding Samsung's ROMs.. they don't compare to AOSP ROMs in my opinion.
Now, for the questions.
1. Why is it we can't get a working kernel to boot for the GS4G? (Someone please do explain in detail.)
2. How far has someone gone/gotten? (I know krylon handed the work to someone, but I don't think they've reported back?)
And please, no stupid answers. This is pure discussion. If a kernel dev is what we need, I could try to find one that's willing to work with me, but we'd need testers and such.
From what I heard and read around, you guys don't have any devs thats capable of doing that.

The guy said he wanted a technical status summary and specifically said he wants to help.
In this case, i think we do need to maintain a thread of work chords and specify the barriers.

It's ok. I've responded to a few of these threads. It's surprising how many people don't click 'search' and search for 'cm7' or 'cyanogenmod'. I also don't expect people to read both rootz and xda. So if you read my op on the kernel thread, I have a "Plans" section (on both forums!).

Then why didn't you group all the information that is already available in the 50 other threads about CM7 into this one?
if you really wanted to do that, you could have made your OP a summary with bullet points of the details of everything that was already discussed, and then updated it with new information that comes along.
did you even search at all??

Personally I think the person that cast the raise dead spell should be getting beat with the flame bat.

First of all, this has never been my primary device. I have never owned this device. I used to own the Samsung Vibrant, now I own a Nexus S. My girlfriend owned a Galaxy S 4G, and was using her phone to try to bring something new to you guys. (First ICS theme for this device ring a bell?) It's not my job to group 50 other threads about CM7 into this one. That's not what a community is. I am in no way a recognized developer, I know my stuff, but I have a long way to go. But it's people like you that make devs want to leave and stop posting their stuff. You swear people have time to do everything. And indeed that was my intention, but I wasn't going to pull useless information from other threads that members have posted, that are often inaccurate. This thread was mostly meant for devs, that could actually help out, and working together.
In other news, I finally have some time to mess around with stuff, might look into more themes or something, but I lack a device to work on, so I guess if some people would like to help (testing, etc.) I'd be glad to push things out from time to time.

Yes it has been posted all over the ICS ROM threads so it might be a little superfluous but all of those are in this section, so are you saying they should have been posted somewhere else as well?
While this particular thread is unnecessary it is absolutely relevant to the development of ICS ROMs and therefore it belongs in the development section.
Okay, everybody relax...

I am totally relaxed about the camera thing, I don't even use the camera so I don't really care when it gets fixed. What I am not relaxed about us people constantly telling other people they are posting in the wrong section when they are not . This guy was trying to help and got hit on.

I didn't hit him anyway, it was just a hint, i even thanked him.
The thing is that the thread is for sure important for our developers, but got nothing to do with desire s development itself, it's a thread for a different device.
That's why it should be posted in the general section and not in the development section.
For sure i can understand that he posted it here, i also once opened a thread here that should have been at the general section and i was aware of it, but that's a different story with another background.

You missunderstood me, i meant my hint about the wrong section
Before this thread has been opened it was already posted at the relevant threads and i'm sure the developers already knew it before it where posted by anyone here.
And btw there is atm one ics with working cam released, nexx just started and anounced it, but didn't release it yet
Guys, this is turning into a mud-slinging match. The thread in question has been rendered useless by all this enmity.
No matter which of you wins the argument, this thread is lost for ever, as it is no longer serving the purpose for which it was opened.
Just let it slide. Nobody wins anything here, even if one of you manages to prove a point.
Peace.
I've been a member of xda-dev since 2006 but have made only a few posts.
I'm interested in becoming more active and contributing as a developer, but I have some pretty strict posting restrictions because I'm a "new" user. (Post timing, edit timing, no links, etc)
Would it be possible to have these restrictions removed based on that fact that I've been a member for 6 years without incident?
Thanks,
tekkdrone
i don't think time on this board has to do with anything. you've been a member for 6 years yet only have 4 counted posts, which means you probably havent contributed much[not dissing you] to have the initial restrictions lifted

I caught that too. But I'm the noob, so maybe I'm counting posts wrong. But if I have to post over 300 posts to lift my "10 post" restriction, I'll never be able to post in the non-general forums.
Yeah, I also find the restrictions a little annoying. I've been working with Android for a few years, but I never joined up here. Now that I have, I can't be seen as a developer until I've made a certain amount of posts. Not the end of the world, but still not a very good idea considering that anyone can easily get around this.
Agreed.
Yesterday, I was forced to PM a ROM developer regarding a serious issue since I wasn't able to post in the thread.

Not that I fall into this category or anything, but what is the post count to post as a developer?
This is the first forum I've been on with these kinds of restrictions. I find it odd.
The post count restriction is for those users that only join to spam the development threads with "MY CAMERA DOESN'T WORK. WHY DOESN'T IT WORK?!!?!!!!!1"
If you want the restrictions lifted, just follow a thread and join the conversation.

That seems ok I guess. I wasn't aware of this either, I am following the d3 kexec and can't post, it made me a bit bummed. Im not going to lie...

Please have a look here: Postcount limit in developmental fora
I can understand the frustration this might bringt to some of you - but as said in the thread above, there's no better alternative.
If you have one, bring it out.

restrictions do not make sense because I tasted such a Rom and see problems in it and I can tell the developer, who might not have noticed, but good forums are rules and should be respected

I know that feeling. Every time I got a real problem, then I found that I'm under the posts count restriction. But can't deny this is effective to prevent thread form spamming.

The restrictions make sense precisely because of that reason. The two posts you have made prior to this one are;-
Good morning, I installed makious v Rom. 11.1 for my HTC evo 3D and calendar reminders are sometimes not

Neither of those comments will be remotely useful to a developer or to a development thread.
If you were posting something along the lines of
I have recently installed your ROM v3.1 and have encountered a problem with synchronizing my calendar if I am running application 'Z'. I have rolled back to v3.0 and this problem didn't exist. I have also tried various other ICS ROMs and don't get the same problem.

and you had searched the thread fully to ensure that nobody else had reported the problem and it wasn't listed in the 'Known Issues' at the start of the thread ...
... then the post might be worthwhile making.
I am a regular on the HTC Desire S forums - and all we seem to get at the moment are newbies asking the same
why doesn't the camera work?

Why can't I use Wi-Fi Tether

and so on - problems that are well known to exist in every ICS-based ROM on our platform.
These sort of questions just cause anger and waste time - both for the devs who are trying to do a fantastic job for free and the people who actually want to join in and have the capability to help the devs with testing and troubleshooting.
I hope that you understand a bit clearer now. I, personally, don't think the 10 post limit is enough. I don't believe any XDA member should be able to post into the dev threads unless they have been approved by at least one dev - based on previous posts, helping other users and general attitude.

You're absolutely right, and I apologize for the way I have written the comments, what happens is you get into the threads of the developers and people write what I wrote, and I've more or less copied. It's a very good forum and to continue so, and I apologize if I offended anyone has.

No apology required mate - at least you understand now. I hope that you spend a long time with the community and gain half as much as I have done from it.
simply join conversations and contribute, that's all there is to it
don't fight the system, work with it :angel:
Tread Closed. I would recommend PMing a senior mod directly about this matter.
