Develop Bugs

Why are some of the Inc dev's leaving XDA?

Ok. So i have been away from the form for a couple of weeks (family emergency) and I noticed that some of the dev's are packing up and going to different forums JoelZ9614, ihtfp69. What did I miss?

I'm kinda wondering that too tbh

devs should just ignore the crap and keep doing what they do.

Stuff like this makes me want to stay with CM even more. CM is my first love for custom ROMs and my favorite so far due to it's speed and features and open source model. Since they packed up quietly it just would make you speculate.
I like looking at the front page of Inc development to see what's new. We'll still be seeing new ROM on xda, just from fewer devs.

They are doing what they do, just decided to do it elsewhere. A few things have happened on xda that ticked a lot of people off.

im staying right here. doesnt matter who leaves, who stays. people need to grow the hell up and grow some thicker skin. this childish behavior HAS to stop for the good of the community. we will implode if all our devs leave. its like a joke to them. were not in third grade anymore guys. grow up, seriously......

...What exactly has happened on XDA that we're unaware of? Other than some of the people who use roms being totally immature, they will just follow to the other forums and spam that up. What's the point?

I thought I would stick with this phone way past my contract because of the development but I might have to second guess that if the developers become too hard to locate . Like they say " There is a beginning to every end "

Change roms like I change underwear.

Why I love XDA

Best Devs and Themers bar none can be found right here.
As someone who has trouble holding onto a device for very long (as referenced by me many times already) I've since found a serious love for (addiction to?) custom ROMs and themes. And here at XDA there are so many to choose from that every time I flash a new one I feel like I have a whole new phone in my hand. Usually by now I'm beating back a major craving to buy a new device but for once, since my smartphone buying days started, I'm content with my phone and okay to wait and see what's next. (just hate hearing about it for months in advance lol)
I hope you know the tireless work you guys (gender non-specific) put into these ROMs/Themes does not go unappreciated. If I'd paid more attention to XDA in my OG EVO days I might've avoided the mistake that was EVO 3D and enjoyed my OG EVO until my upgrade (the E4GT) became available.
Major kudos to all of you and thank you, thank you for your hard work and dedication.

Well said, my wife seen some of these roms and the themes that go with them then looked at her stock e4gt and finally told me to root and install blazer 4.1 ROM with ics sherbet theme. Now she has a new respect for xda and all the hard work these devs and themers put in for us all.

I feel ya. My girl just installed go launcher after three months and couldn't believe all the different things she could do. I know its bad of me to not mention it to her sooner but just like noobs in the forums, I knew I would be doing double time to help her. This way she moves into it at her own pace per se. I know I'm in for it when ICS is released. Even though it will have the same touchwiz feel, I can see that the reversed "ok" or "cancel" is gonna be enough to open a can. If you know what I mean. Lol.

Yep!
XDA = Good stuff (especially the E4GT community)

I agree. The Et4g made me want to contribute. Everyone is friendly and they are a bunch of funny smart asses (You know who you are) Lol. I actually feel like i fit in. Plus is bar none the best SGS2 device across every other carrier.

Thanks for bringing that up because along with the Devs and Themers I really should've added the every day ordinary posters here on XDA. Many of you guys make me laugh, often and a lot, but you also help me along in the learning process.
So my thanks to all of you as well.

[TIPS] Samsung Galaxy S III: 15 Power User Tips

Hello members,
Every once and a while I come across an interesting article that is worth noting such as the article titled "Samsung Galaxy S III: 15 Power User Tips" over at PC World. There were some well not so known tips and great features that were listed in this article that wowed even me about the Samsung Galaxy III. Dont take my word for it, go over there and become informed. If you know of any other tips that were not posted, please do share the wealth.
Some examples are such as :
Save That Screen Retrieved from this article here:
"Take a screenshot. And another. And another. Taking screenshots with the S III is a snap—all you have to do is swipe the screen with your palm. So go ahead, take some more. And some more. And, well, you get the idea.
Other Android phones don't make it quite as easy. If you're using a phone running Android version 4.0 or later, you have to press and hold the Volume Down and Power buttons at the same time"
Make the Phone a Flashlight
"Stop digging around your bag in the dark, hunting for your keys.
If you have your S III in hand, you've already got a flashlight. The Assistive Light widget—which you can add to your home screen by going to Apps, selecting the Widgets tab, and choosing Assistive Light—turns the camera's flash into a flashlight when you need it most. Some other Android phones have this widget as well.
Want to add the flashlight feature to your Android phone? Check out Tiny Flashlight + LED, available as a free download in Google Play."
Oh yes, here is a great one that I did not know of......
Wake Up in Style
Let's face it: We all have to get out of bed sometime. And what better way to face your day than to be prepared for all it has to offer.
Using the "Briefing" setting on your Galaxy S III's alarm clock, you can have your phone wake you by reading the time, weather and weather forecast, news headlines, and any appointments you may have lined up. To turn this feature on, go to alarm type in the settings menu and change it to briefing.
Not a Galaxy S III owner? Download WakeVoice from Google Play to get some of these features on your Android phone.
Regards,

A lot of those are pretty obvious now that the phone has been out for a while thanks anyways tho.

I had no clue about the "briefing", so there was a good reason for his info. Just because you know it, doesnt mean EVERYONE else does. :silly:

That's a pretty sick dream. Maybe it was rude of the guy to post that but you don't even know what kind of a person he is IRL. If it bothers you just take a breath and let it go. Saying something like that feeds trolls and they keep going.

Samsung push update has the most whacked comments.

I could understand user comments from the reddit crowd, but this program has the most rediculous reviews I've ever seen. When I was reading it, I was like wtf?! https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sec.spp.push

Yeah the comments are a bit much... I honestly have no idea what this app does.

It is responsible for pushing notifications of Samsung apps....at least that's what I got out of the info on the update page.

Yea i agree with you..:thumbup::thumbup:
................................................................................................

Yeah I was reading it earlier and was like "WTFF? is going on here?" LOL
BTW the app/service is for pushing notification to Samsung Cloud and App services. As mention before.

I made sure to upvote all the nice posts and undermine all the "legit" ones saying "I duno why theres weird flux capasator reviews, i love samdung, derp"

You sure the update didn't poop out? Did your download finish? Did you md5 it? Did the check sums match? Was it built from the source or a repack? Was it a big or little tar all? How much could it be compressed much when zipped?

Since this is an update, is this already present on our phones?

Its been present for a while now, I've been on kobs gb26 since early March and its in all apps, but there's an option to disable in manage apps.

It's truly been a pleasure being a part of this community. There's so much development and support here. Despite a lot of bickering and nitpicking from certain people, it was definitely beneficial for me because I learned a lot. I'll miss my S2 but the HTC One was just too good of a phone to pass up.

Both phones are amazing. You can't go wrong wrong either way. The only cons I can think of is AT&T locking down the Ones boot loader and the GSIV possibly not getting official Cyanogenmod support.

In the GSIVs defense, its amazing compared to the s3. Its much better all around, with hardware that more than doubles the US GSIII variants and a design much more reminiscent to the Note 2 than the GSIII. The One is amazing too. Don't know about the build quality anomolies though.. the GSIV may be plastic but it sure doesn't have build quality issues like the HTC One.

If we allow everyone posting about "good-byes" from one phone to another, the threads would be full of nothing more than that type of "good-bye" or "hello" stuff.
This is a development site. Not a place for opinions of one brand over another which lead to hard feelings or arguments over device loyalty. Leave that stuff for social media websites.
