you are the very embodyment of what is wrong with the internet.
If you want it that much, get studying already. Learn the OOP basics, learn java (it's really not that hard) and start practicing just like everyone else by...for example....making a notepad or filemanager.

Im shoked..... that my original post.... i agree that a mafia wars type of game should be made.... a simple requst being that there is an actuall thread to where people can request / give ideas about apps..... all this was .....was a simple game... hope that someone with the time or someone that needed a new project ... would step up if was willing to.......It wasnt a stupid game or a dumb idea....

To everyone out there on my post blowing it up with loads of bull, your ignorant. If your not going create the app then stop waisting time posting stupid comments in reference to my post. Your waisting my time and yours. All I asked was if someone could I would greatly appreciate it, that means if you cant or dont want to then dont reply at all. Ya'll childish as crap. Stop complaining and ranting and move on with ya life.

this is epic
How do I forward this comment to my inner thoughts? Do I need one of those cool $700 - $1000 CAR RADIOS with (fm transmitter)?
At least I can understand why my question is an invalid one, but it is very funny to me that you're trying to make fun of me without even knowing what you're making fun of. Building a flash light app is way beyond your level of comprehension of anything. I do feel bad for your son, his own father cannot construct a simple question or make sense in an argument. I do hope your persona is just a joke because you sir are a sad excuse as a human being.

Mods, nuke this whole thread, please. Bring XDA back to what it was. This whole place is a joke now.
I'm closing the thread guys.. this is ridiculous, 2 pages of flaming and arguing..
Please, Please be respectful and try to be helpful..
Ok I know this is an extremely stupid question, and yes I'm sure its been asked before. But I've been REALLY bored lately and just thought I would ask. Is it possible to or has it been tried to port the iPhone os to the g1?
Please keep the ridicule to a minimum. Remember, its only a harmless question.
the difference in closed-sourced and open-sourced.......
no, it can't be done.
(for now i will not flame you, but i make no promises if gridlock or supremeteam or someone else i know gets on here and starts laughing at you)
Oh no worries if it were someone else I would flame them just virtuous. Although if I had known it was still closed source I wouldn't have asked because I thought when 3.1 hit they were going open source.
This is the first I have heard of apple going open source with their iphone os. If that is true then I guess it could possibly done though I wouldn't expect anything anytime soon
Apple go open sourced, hell hasn't froze over yet but I did see a pig fly earlier, but it didn't have wings and we turn around and........**** I am gonna incrimate myself if I say anything fruther.
Know onto david's request:
If you would like icrap's os, I am writing a guide soon on how to brick your phone, I could send a copy to you for only 4 payments of 18.95, limited time offer though. Once you follow my guide than you can go buy a ipone and have the os all you want.
Good night now, it's 7 in the morning and I was woken up for some stupid ass side work as captain save a ho ****, that ain't happening again.
So I am out of commision for a few hours, I hope I don't miss too much
Anybody that would be able to port it over are to content with your android to port it, but it is very safe to say that if it did, the green guy might come out and try to kill us all, or at least self destuct the g1 for be defiled, uh I just got shivers just thinking about it.

The only thing 3.1 did was send the devs back to the JailBreaking workbench. Apparently they aren't sure how to JB 3.1 which I would call the exact opposite of going open source.
If i see one more damn i**** port request for android, i going to make the worlds most devastating trojan that will infect every apple product even the shuffle. People wake up and smell the open sorce goodness
Hey don't attack my shuffle, that thing is great for working out, wait I use linux to load up my music, so I got no need to worry
shuffles are a wat of plastic. and wtf is up with the new nano having a camera

hate it or love it apple is good at what they do. something to ponder is if android become as ubber cool to everyone and they mama would we find new phones and **** talk everyone for using droid?
we did it glock, we mufuckin got a thread closed. run smack yo mama, get ahold of supreme tell him the good news. we official now lol.
I got android for that fact that is was linux based, not because of the style or specs but for the os. I am not one to try and fit in
yea i was just making a statement, i mean really the iphone/ipod touch os is linux/unix based yoiu know? but i dont wanna get into the apple bs anyway im celebrating, we closed a thread, drink somethin off the top shelf tonight.
It got closed right as I was gonna tell you that david forgot to add it in the guide but I have read on some dodgey sites that if you have previously bricked a g1 than it is to counteract the breaking of a mirror by a bowling ball at the bottom of a lake
Codani, this is our second thread closed, remember g1bicked's g1 f$#%ed up thread
Not tonight I have a feeling I will be moonlighting as captain save-a-hoe tonight plus it's raining, gonna try to make it a quiet night, but tomorrow, tomorrow night I am getting hammered
I musta missed the closing of said thread.

Kinda subjective... Obvious choice is Cyanogen. Why even ask?
hey i was right, as soon as i posted my post it was move
who do i trust me, myself and i
who do i distrust everyone
but i support the works of cy, twisted, jac, maxisma and all the honest devs around here
i distrust drizzy though and will never touch anything of his now
Cyanogen is winning the vote, but this isn't to make one out to be better than the other, because they all do different stuff. But there is something to be said about how it is done. In a free market, everyone chooses based upon their own set of criteria.
I trust me and that creepy guy that keeps looking at me when im not looking...
<--- Yeah thats him right there.
This thread is stupid. You said this thread isnt meant to bash on the devs, but your basically doing that with the polls. I wouldn't be surprised if one of the devs mentioned above sees the result and decides to leave xda for good because of crap like this. I seriously see no point in this thread except to put these people in the spotlight. Come on folks, common sense is your friend when it comes to trust.
Lets make a thread about Jaaronpardy or w/e the OP name is, lets put up a poll to see who thinks this guy thread is garbage or not. Seriously tho, who gives a F**K? if the devs above contributes and makes nice roms then hooray!the community is happy, but what the f**k trust got to do with anything? Fail thread is FAIL!

Yeah, its a question based on opinion of individuals... AKA ...subjective lol, and he asked just so that the community can have a reference for new members, etc, w/e... and no cyanogen may not be obvious to all..
that all aside, lol, i trust cyanogen (myself only for cupcake/donut of course) and kingklick for hero, but MLIGN and maxisma and drizzy all make contributions of what they personally like in a phone also, so really, the best thing for everyone to do would be to make individual custom roms like moto modding is with monster packs lol

seriously man, its getting up to here --- lol i could use some "stress" relief (oh and, btw i like this thread , just an fyi lmao)
a good thread to be up right now.
Today, I saw some of the most ridiculous, immature, stupid asinine talk from people that are supposed to have I.Q's above their pants sizes that I have ever seen.
Using ebonics to try and explain how they arent stupid..... calling people names while having NO CLUE what they are talking about.
A guy who thought it was funny because he tried to rip some kids phone off and got caught.
How much attention does one guy need to beg for?
I came here thinking that there would be at least a tiny bit more respect for people then places like PSP and Xbox mod sites where retarded kids run rampant, then I see that all this place mostly is, is people stealing others work and taking credit.. then blaming the persons wok they took.
The first rom I ever used was Drizzys blur....... After seeing the way he talks to people, the way he treats people... hell just the way he types has made me loose any respect I may have had.
I have no clue how roms are made. I would never attempt to make one. But, being as how NO DEVELOPER here actually makes any of these roms makes it the more ridiculous.
You take an image from a phone, and change things around and name it. All these guys do is take someone elses work and slap crap all over it, change some stuff up and call it their own. How about I take windows XP, make 1 wallpaper, change the page file settings and put a bunch of crappy icons and name it "windows crypy xtreme". Sounds retarded doesnt it? Well thats all these guys do.
Ive seen some of the dumbest arguments I have ever seen in my 28 years, on this site between people who are supposed to have half a brain.
There is only so many times I can see "er'ything, dis, dat"... I mean, is it that hard to add that extra correct letter into your english when trying to prove your intelligence? how can you argue with someone when you didnt even make it far enough through school to know how to talk to other humans?
Oh well.... Ive learned enough here in my few weeks to now know what im doing when searching for a rom. I dont care about whos name is on it.
All these roms were leaked, stolen or dumped at some point in time to where anyone with the right knowledge can make their own. Its just sad when some "kids" are some full of themselves they just beg for the attention they can get whether it be good or extremely bad.That shows me that maybe mommy and daddy dont love them very much.... or are just dumber then dirt with crap in it.
After the arguments I saw here today, trying to justify ripping people off for having trust, whining about who stole what first and who is better at altering said stolen content... I think this place is a joke.
It may have been good at 1 point in time, but when you get a bunch of attention starved idiots into a room together, of which some have serious personality issues, it just turns into a big heaping steaming pile of poo.
HEll, I dont even know who deserves credit for what now because this place is so full of BS.
I... Just... its insane really.
Sorry for this rant, but after hours of reading complete and utter retardation all day today and loosing many an I.Q point for reading, I thought this was the only appropriate thread for said rant.
The real question here is, all these guys use STOLEN software, how can you trust any of them?
I dont trust anyone I dont know personally, and Ive made it this far in life. Some of you that are still under 20, trying to act like you are god because you slap a bunch of files together is just... well DUMB.
I mean really.... some of you are supposed to be smart software wise..... How did you get so stupid in every other aspect of life?

I'm on the ultra-secret Windows Mobile 12 team and I can only tell you that the images in the OP are actually from our current build of Windows Mobile 12 on the Touch Pro 5.
I need alot more feedback please
Ok please this is a serious matter , i thank you for posting but I need serious feedback on this product. If anyone including moderators can give a detailed comment as to thier like or dislike to this model I will greatly appreciate it. Lets just say I have something riding on this. I thank you for reading and will post much more photos soon. Have an excellent day everyone!!
krenisis?
rogelio rios?
now you go by zarpy huh?
ah well, make the dpad symetircal (sp?), make it so 'windows mobile' actually fully fits on the screen and just polish it up a bit, right now it looks like something my son would draw,
good luck
No Chance
If you saw the 2010 HTC protuct leak then you would know that the touch pro 3 looks just like the tp2
Who is kenis? Anyway here are some newer photos I found online , they look different? Maybe I fell for a hoax or maybe not. About the leak your refering to , that could be a leak just to throw everyone off. Maybe this will be a video game system and a phone. When I get more info I let you know. Thanks for the replies. If you got photos of what you think touchpro3 looks like post them here and we will compare.
Come on Man lol
you "thought" this was the tp3 lmao ok dude. its blatanly obvious that that is a tmobile touch pro2, look at the 2nd set of pics. its also pretty obvious that you and the orginal thread starter of the post i linked are the same guy...
have a good one
Krensis is just trolling this forum with random nicks, he really should be banned.
is this a joke? lmao 4real?
i would say this is a bad idea, maybe good if this was tha 80's . . . and again why.... ahh neva mind i cant even comment anymore...
[email protected]&TP5
iam not your man
Whoever this person is you must not like him lol!! But the other name you mention in your post , thats where I got the photos from. It was on ppc geeks , I just thought I put them on here. Since you say he should be ban that must mean the photos are fake. Ok sorry!!
I been dupped
What a bummer! I honestly thought they were real. I just got this phone and was wondering how could a new phone be out already. Iam kinda new to this but already I see there is alot of false info on the internet. I be more careful next time. Thank you everyone for exposing this fraud. I be more careful in the future of what I post.

K first thing,
Thank God that HTC isn't that lazy and would roll out basically the same phone with a new name. Looking forward to the actual TP3!
Also:
Zarpy, how could you have believed that HTC would put a retro style game pad on their flagship BUSINESS PHONE.
Finally:
I am not the same guy
what a response
Ok an honest mistake and I feel the heat . Like I said sorry for the leak. About the other dude I check out on of his threads it seems like he was banned. I guess he wasnt well liked around here and with good reason. This is my 1st cellphone and Iam pretty new to this. I like video games and wished for a game system that you can play games with so I got excited. Is this the response you get here when you make a mistake.Wow dudes chill out lol!!! Anyway I stick to posting games and apps I like. Hopefully I get a better response that thank you all.
If you're looking for gaming on a touchscreen phone do a search on Morphgear skins.
Here's the best one for WVGA devices right here.
More than likely what you're seeing is an ugly (in my opinion anyhow) skin for morphgear or something similar, not the leak of some new phone.
Now that looks awesome
Yes I click on the link you posted , it looks awesome. I dont think the 1 I posted look bad. I thought it looked like an outdated gameboy lol! Thank you very much gives me something to look forward to.
I have a few questions thats bothering me....
Is this the response you get when you make a mistake here?
What did that guy krenisis that the other guys talking about do?Did he hack this website or something?
Thanks in advanced for the answer.

Okay we've had about enough of your BS. For those that haven't realized yet... Zarpy IS krenisis and he's also rogelio rios or whatever on ppcgeeks. Quit lying, we are sick of your act. Do you really think you can outsmart people here? You post the same under all 3 of your handles (maybe more) and you still can't take criticism either. It's so obvious. Plus, you're spamming even worse this time. Maybe you will finally realize that it's not us that's the problem, it's you.
If you're going to pretend you're not krenisis, why are you posting the same links and making the same type of threads as you did before you made a huge scene about leaving XDA and never coming back? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=603526
There are other ways to promote your site and it's not by misleading people.
what?
What website are you talking about?
I listed many websites in the thread your talking about. How am I promoting someone who is banned. I never mention this persons name some people here did. How did I sneak and promote this persons site? I looked and saw many websites , if that persons website happens to be included its because I went there. I see I wont be visiting this site often. Some people not smart lol!!!! This is very funny because I dont even know this person. Granted yes I did take the photo from a leak on pocket pc and it is from the same guy everyone here seems to hate. Yes Iam mad at this jerk myself because now everyone thinks he is me lol!! As far as spam how am I spammin. I keep everything I do in 1 thread. Thats spam?
HAHAHAHAHAHA Wow like I said I wont be visiting here to often this is nuts lol!!
You are a very strange little man to think you're not being obvious. Your words are the same, you put polls with all of your posts, you post at the same time as your alias on ppcgeeks with the same misleading "tp3" bs (which the mods deleted), you post the same freeware sites as your alias (the ones noone in their right mind would post and brag about), your style of writing is exactly the same, your join date is even this month lol.
You think you're fooling us when you deliberately misspell your old username? I try and ignore your posts and I was still able to piece it together in an instant. Sooooooooooo obvious.
just quit the act now and save some face, guy.
The way you're acting is an insult to all these great developers and you're wasting our time. Contribute your games, fine, but as MANY people have said... keep them in one place. It's cool that you want to give us games even if many don't like them, but why be so weird about it??
You said many times you won't come back and here you are again saying it. We don't believe you anymore. I really hope you're still in High School and not an actual adult in the real world.
PS: obvious!
Hello everyone..
This I thought was something important that I decided to put in the theme thread since the above mentioned developer has had such an impact in the theming world.
So I was talking to cacheinjection just a few minutes ago on gtalk, and he unfortunately told me to let the xda community know that he will be leaving the android theming for a while.
He gave the reason as he was getting very busy with his job, and so does not have that much time right now(which i'm sure is true for most android developers since we can't be on xda all day every day), and also he expressed his discontent at people's lack of appreciation for all that he did/has been doing. He has been quite a revolutionary themer and most people would agree with me that the new things that he brought to the android scene, along with the help of other great developers: freekyfrogy and djosiah, made us love our g1's/mytouch 3g's all over again. With my time being on xda, I have seen this too many times where some ppl on xda actually end up pushing developers away because they do not realize that all developers have lives apart from the work they do for free for the xda community. I think it goes without saying that we as an xda community should show our appreciation to developers, as our way of saying thank you for taking time out of their day.
Excerpts from Conversation:
Cacheinjection: I feel pretty s*** about Android atm...People always want stuff, and never give anything back, not even thanks really. So I think I might give it up. I had a good run.
Cacheinjection: I think it might be very soon cos I don't see people caring anymore.
Cacheinjection: All people do is moan cos I haven't [done a specific thing]. F*** it. I'll just make my own fone pretty.
Cacheinjection: I have a pretty awesome job, I just like people to appreciate that I put my heart and soul into the stuff
Cacheinjection: It seems to me that if you need to tell people to appreciate what you do, they don't appreciate it
Cacheinjection: Let ppl know that I am taking a bit of time off of theme development. Things will get updated as and when..and I'll continue my work with Super D with Ben.
So there it is guys. If I were you, I would go over to his page, and to the pages of as many developers as you can find, and let them know how much you appreciate them. A donation never hurts either, if they have it on their page. So that's it. Just letting people know. Don't let any more developers make this decision also. Let them know you care. Thanks.
Shouldn't be to much of a surprise though, the things he say are pretty true though.

Very true. Also, I feel even worse for the Devs, they aren't that much more appreciated either! They make wonderful Roms and include awesome instructions yet people ask questions that are already answered and demand more and more and more. I don't know how some of them (including themers) put up with everything. Reading the posts people make in Rom threads make me go They want this, that, etc etc etc!
If only people took some more effort into doing some stuff themselves or even learning the basics, it would probably reduce a lot of these issues. I love when I see a theme release and people just ask for different stuff when they can do it themselves lol, I wonder if they even know how much time this stuff takes. I also don't think most of the people understand or know a thing about the Roms, other then flashing it! Which leads to more demands and devs that have to deal with it!
Just another example of a great developer being pushed away by unappreciative idiots on this forum. It's kind of sad really, alot of people have nothing better to do but to refresh the page every 5 seconds waiting for a new update (usually for a minor bug) even though an update was released just a few days prior. Better yet, the same people will b*tch and moan if a Dev hasn't put anything out for a week, while completely disregarding the fact that people like Cache work for free despite the fact they have actual lives outside of xda. This applies for ROMS and themes.
Xda should be a pay site and I'm serious. Either subscription based or download based. If not then this site will slowly die, do you think devs will continually put up with this crap over and over again? I have no problem paying a mandatory fee for an amazing theme or ROM. Nothing major, just a few dollars but at least the devs will get some guaranteed compensation.
Hope to see you back here Cache because despite the idiots, I do know there are alot of posters that appreciate your work.

If not then this site will slowly die, do you think devs will continually put up with this crap over and over again? I have no problem paying a mandatory fee for an amazing theme or ROM. Nothing major, just a few dollars but at least the devs will get some guaranteed compensation.
Hope to see you back here Cache because despite the idiots, I do know there are alot of posters that appreciate your work.

Something like the membership @ modaco. People get angry when a new update doesn't come out which is ridiculous.
Cacheinjection Keep Your Head Up And I Also Want You To Know That You Are Appreciated By Me. Take As Much Time As You Need. Your Themes Are The Best And Will Always And Forever Be. Your A Tremendous Developer. Continue On Doing What You Do And Trust Me: You Will Be Missed A LOT!
Until Then...Keep Up The Marvelous Work
It seems people want things on there schedule and how they want it.. A dev developes for him/herself and then share with the community.. We shouldn't expect anything from them we should be happy that they took there time to make something for us (community)....
Appreciate you and your revolutionary designs for the Android Community... You will be missed a lot

Ah I'd be totally down for some kind of membership/subscription here (As long as it isn't too much! Just some membership thing would be nice)
And now that you guys mention people constantly wanting updates, that reminds me of how ppl appear to go crazy when Cyanogen doesn't release an update and think he's left the project to die cause of nexus one lmao. I personally think most of us will just keep wanting updates (flashaholics!), even at the point where updates are almost no longer possible!
It's terrible how all the complainers ruin it for all the people who truly do appreciate the devs work. The lurkers like me far outnumber the haters but the fact that we lurk is probably part of the problem. We'll miss him cache's work has definitely been some of the best.....the Darkstar theme is the best thing on any cellular device to date imho.
Sorry to see him leave, he will be missed.

this made me laugh lol...
but that fact aside...
u do amazing work...
ive been part of the android community since day 1 of the g1 being released...
i wasnt a linux geek or themeing master but i patiently waited...learned the tricks and began helping others...
it was fun to give people tips and tricks on how to do things
help run their roms on their phone when they cant anymore...
and i feel what ur saying
its hard to keep up with a community thats so young and wants everything quick...some people just dont realize the time that goes into it...
well i hope u do come back and if u keep ur themes for a select few i understand that...for peopel who donate and what not i would be more than willing to pitch in...everyone deserves payment for their work...nothing in this world is free
Sad, sad, sad...
Hope HE will be fine. It doesn't matter those people whose won't be getting his stuff, only HE matters.
So, if HE is allright, i'll be fine!
Good luck Mr.Cacheinjection!
damn this guy was my partner in crime lol. to be honest without cache here updates for elegance and darkstar will be very slow. he was the one who mostly updated these themes. its sad to see him go because he has taught me a lot and if it wasnt for his initial darkstar concept i wouldnt have gotten into themeing. hopefully he will be back sooner than we think.
@shadowch31 syaing that he 'bit off more then he chew' isnt a very fair statement to make. he chose to try and do all these things to help the community and when the community dont show appreciation they are just throwing it back in his face. im not having a go at you or anything, just thought it needed to be said.

I feel sorry about it, but I understand him, everyone who make themes/roms, would understand it too. Actually people, who never made anything, don't realize how hard is it, and how many hours we expend on it.
I also hate when people post negative comments like: "you should post concepts, or w.i.p, ...
I hope he doesn't leave forever, or even long, becuase we need him. He's one of the best, and always a good help for people like me.
I just want to thank him for everything he has made so far.

I would say though, shadowch31, that from all the conversations that i've had with cache, money is not his main thing for theming. The guy has a love for theming and he seems he just has a heart to share the ideas with people. Just to clear that up. What's wrong with donations anyway? More so to him? The guy has really been revolutionary with bringing new ideas to the table, and you're right..not everyone can donate, but those who can, it never hurts to send a dev some monetary thank yous. i've done so myself when i could cuz i know the time and effort it takes to make anything, from the smallest thing to the grandest. but yeah..i was just letting you know that that's not what cache is about here.

I agree, developers can sell their software in the market, themers share it here. Donations is a good way to push creators to keep working and creating.
And I think 1$ is not a big deal for anybody here, but together, it would be a nice reward for every developer.
But it's just my opinion
hey guys,
im just gonna chime in quick,
first off i wana say to shadowch31 none of this is aimed at you, you are awsome, and i dont think i would have done as much good worth without your enthusiasm.
And yeah i totaly love your british sense of humor, gtalk em if ya wana chat
yeah, this is most definitely not about money, I have a job, and that keeps me in beer and a roof over the head, in fact i was a little hesitant about adding donate links, cos i dont want people to give if they dont wana. its just about people appreciating work, also people letting us know they are still interested with what were doing, helps us know if we should continue to work on it for the comunity.
Anyway thanks for all the support, and i will be back, just having a breather.
Cache
Thanks for coming in Cache and clearing things up, I understand your words of enthusiasm a lot more than 'appreciated' but see how the two tie in.
Your right the community had somwhat abandonded Darkstar besides me and my motivational nagging and Elegance was getting the same besides the odd 'Can we have...' brigade. Gonna be sad to see you go fella but it is a well deserved break and one I understand, just looking at getting into theming myself and know it ain't gonna be a walk in the park and is gonna take a lot of time and effort. Was just gutted and upset to see such an asset to the themeing community leave and for what seemed like weak excuses but now you have explained I fully understand your decision.
I, like everyone else will miss ya fella and look forward to the day you feel like coming back and treating us all to your amazing work. Thanks for everything Cache, been a hell of a ride.
I too would like to say thanks Cache for what you've done for the community, and of course especially DarkStar.
To this date I still haven't abandoned the last update of DS that had Stericson's lockscreen lol. In fact, I'm actually keeping the theme for quite some time since SD 1.8 is stable and fast enough.
But yeah have fun with your break dude, and I look forward to your return.
