Is JasJamming Dead?

Hi I was wondering what happened to JJ. I mean he was the king of cooks on hermes in the old days. Dos anyone know what happened to him?

He moved off to another forum a while back. My understanding was that the other forum would better allow him to manage the thousands of questions he was getting on his ROMS which he felt had been asked countless times.
I genuinely don't know whether he is still into developing ROMS; however there are a raft of excellent cooks and ROMs out there now which means one is spoilt for choice. We should continue to be in this great position if we continue to support the cooks we have left, especially from a donation perspective.

Not dead, but it looks like he's had to leave the scene:

(I haven't followed JJ's career since he left here, so this might have been superceded, your question made me wonder, so I went googling).

JJ
Ok I looked at your link at 4winmobile. So now we kno what happened to him. Sad though. Back in the days he was the only "real" cook that made the hermes an amazing toy. Hope he will be back one day...

not dead, still lurking......

Wait. 2008 was 4 years ago? Damn.
And welcome back JJ, even though I never heard of you, and I'm from the generation that thought NRG was the ROM God. lol

A 4 year bump is pretty impressive, especially when it's legit.....
Also, always nice to find out someone's not dead.

Bump
Here is another 4 year bump....

Hey new guy here

Thought I would post to introduce myself. I signed on here (browsed & used this site in the past) since I just got a new phone (HTC Juno).
I go thru about 4 phones a year, I know thats nothing compared to some. I can stay content with the same phone for about 4 months before I get the itch to upgrade
Oh and if you wonder about the username, I love me some JDM cars

Hi new guy!
Why 4 months? The ideas we have here are meant to upgrade the same phone to make it even better than the one you really want, or the one that isn't fully released yet !

Great comment!!
Agree
And also welcome new guy! enjoy this great site

welcome.
and believe me, you say your going to stay with it for four months...but you'll end up keeping it for a while. these great people here make your phone more than just a PHONE.
good luck.
and READ BEFORE YOU DO ANYTHING YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU'RE DOING.
EDIT: i see youre already looking into flashing roms...

hey new guy!
I agree with what everyone's telling you, after you join this site, you probably won't be switching out as often..all this customization here would take you longer than 4 months a piece to try out haha

group hug
welcome to the forum new boy
have fun.....and enjoy your phone......and make it beter

Welcome from another newbie!
Welcome to the forums! This is a really great place to learn everything about your phone. It takes ages to read through everything (I'm still not finished! LOL) but it is so worth it. Hope you'll be keeping your phone for more than four months. I just recently sold my Hermes and I felt a little sad but I had it for about a year and a half and was just dying for the Touch Diamond.
Enjoy it here!

Just saying hi...

Howdy all,
I'm new to these forums and figured I'd just introduce myself and say hello (as I do on all forums I join).
I'm Rozza C and I currently own a G1 Android phone. I've been browsing the forums for a long time now, but never took the plunge to join, until now.
Anyway, that's about all I have to say.
Look forward to seeing you all in the forums! =)

Welcome!
I hope you enjoy to be part of this community as I do.

welcome aboard Rozza
search, follow the rules, have fun and be careful...u're gonna be addicted

Thanks for the warm welcome guys

Yeah I'm nearing the end of my contract now, so I'll be able to upgrade soon.
Problem is...I don't have any money, seeing I just finished university and haven't found a job yet! =O
So I might be sticking with the G1 for a little while longer...

^ Understand... except different situation. Got a job but a wife(well fiance) and child who suck all the money I earn away from me LOL...
Im thinking I'll go with a G1 myself also or a HTC tilt 2..... G1 would have to be unlocked (go AT&T)

LOL
I'm in the UK and I'm happy with my current network (T-Mobile)...
I just hope they give me a good renewal deal...

Welcome to XDA - you'll soon find yourself getting addicted!
t-mobile were doing the desire on an upgrade for free from what i remember, this was about 2 weeks ago though, but that does depend on your tariff! (this was for £25 a month)
They're decent phones, my brother got one recently and they beat the pants of my hero.... bring on that 2.1 update.....

Hi Rozza C.
Just a few tips to make friends...
Post questions in threads that have nothing to do with the actual topic
Start new threads, asking questions that are the top-most answered questions in the forum
Download cabs from developers that have spent a great deal of time making a product, and then post it as your own work and take credit for it
Yeah, basically don't do any of the above and you'll be okay

Welcome to XDA Rozza!!
Keep THIS THREAD in mind if in the next couple months you start forgetting to do things like eat and go to work. There is help if you fall too far down the hole

How did you find XDA?

So thee first time i found Xda i was looking for G1 hacks on google and i found this awsome website! How did you find it?

I used to have a LG Incite a long time ago and they banned me from their forum because I said that The Tilt 2 was better than the LG eXpo... SO... After being a quiet drifter for a few months I decided to start posting on this forum, AND THEN, I BECAME....PurpleSmurfLlama

Indeed! If your talking to me

I sent a PM

There is already a thread with same topic but could not found it
I came here 1st time in 2006 looking for a new OS for my beloved Universal and since that time I am here living amongst XDA servers

Was looking for some apps for my Omnia I900 when i forst got it, amongst using this and modaco, I managed to flash winmo 6.5. I then moved onto HTC Touch Elf as I wanted a winmo phone but only had a symbian afterwards, and then got my Hero.
Best Phone Site Ever.
(And off topic kicks ass...)

Looking up hacks for my old old old HTC Wizard. My first touch screen smart phone.
BTW, I just realized I forgot to add it to my retired list.

I didn't find XDA. XDA found me.

I knew about it from a friend who never used it (said he heard about some X website for HTC).

A random guy saw me walking down the street with my tytn, commented on my super new at the time phone and asked what ROM i was running. He showed me xda on the spot and the rest is history lol.

I try to just go throug life and let things happen. It's so much more relax to live like that. So, I try not to DO nothing, and embrace what comes around.
In that sense, I did not find XDA, but it came to me along with my first PDA, a Sanyo Cassiopeia (if I remember correctly), that a friend sold me second hand.
So, it's really the same story as many of the other posters, but my point of view is different.

In 2008, I landed my sweaty hands on a htc tytn 2 (unbranded one), so after a few months. I heard of a wm 6.5 and was I want it on my device also. After, a google search It bought out (drum roll) XDA_Developers.com

Had an SPV c550 and was having problems with it this must be 2006-2007 something like that and got thrown to XDA via link, then got a Magician and didn't join up untill got the Excailbur.

I remember it was 2007, I was curious to know how to tweak my dash...so I found xda just googling. I was 1 year just checking the site just following threads (not sign in as a member). Started looking around and flashed my first rom...stayed cool for a while when I realized afterwards there was another tweak that can looked good in my dash (NGRZ's energy rom for the excalibur) I flashed and brick my first dash .
So, in Nov 2008 I became a member...and yes my first thread was "help!!!! I bricked my dashed...please help me!!!......(not ashamed at all)
After that....a lot of reading, tweaking and bricking. One major thing also that sometime we don't mention beside phones it's the great people around here and friends that probably I will not meet during my life, but this site gave the opportunity to know them and share good momments everyday with them .

That is a touching story! One of the best I've heard

[Q] should this subforum be closed???

hello everyone, I recently purchased a dell streak 7 and actually love it but have been disappointed in the lack of rom development for the device. it makes me feel like i purchased the device that nobody cares about. everyday i check the development section just to see the same post. there is never anything new so i was wondering why this sub-forum still open???? I dont think we really need a whole sub-forum just to see when dj steve releases an update for the same rom. One developer should not warrant a whole sub-forum. This makes me wish i would have hung on to my g-tab.

U can just as easily leave xda .... it takes time to pick up extra developers. Learn yourself and put out your own rom !!!
I've started on it myself..... I know a few others who have too.... learning takes time ! ALSO FYI, We already have 2 different froyo builds, 1 honeycomb build, and Ubuntu partially functioning. I've talked with 2 people who have already started trying their hand at gingerbread. Nothing official there yet though.
Most of us have jobs and families..... time isn't so abundant. If u have the time then do something about it and stop complaining
Donating to developers is also an incentive ........
PS
mods please move this where it belongs.

avoid Android - get an Apple device

that type of service - you got the wrong device - I would suggest you return your streak and get an Apple itouch - where everything is on silver platter for you....and rom updated for you all you do is download....
