Superguide is outdated now

I was going to post this as a reply to the "Rooting My HTC Vivid At&T on Android 4.0.3 ICS" thread, but I decided to make it a new thread because it touches on a number of current threads.
Any chance someone will update or add to the Superguide because of all the changes and improvements that have occurred? (Not to mention the all-in-1 tool if it is still relevant.)
For those of who have never messed with a phone OS, but might want to, or who have managed to mess up their phone, we really need a consolidated, current and COMPLETE guide. Also, please explain the terms and acronyms that the devs know but some of us do not.
I read these threads each day, and I have gotten a lot from some of them. But with the ongoing changes, and with the ongoing crashes that people need help on, the correct methods and fixes are scattered over hundreds of posts in dozens of threads. I have seen some that are useful, but I don't think they can take me from step 1 to the end successfully. They tend to address only specific scenarios.
This will take time for someone, but if it eliminates some bricked phones, and eliminates a bunch of new threads, it would be worth it. And it needs to be pinned, so it won't be buried on page 3 in a couple of days. There's probably a lot of good stuff back on page 40, but who's going to go find it.
The experts say, "search" and "read the threads." Well, I have. And I doubt anyone with my lack of experience would find all the changes and updates that have occurred since the Superguide was done.
I am not criticizng the Superguide. It is exactly the type of thing we need. It just needs to be made current. And someone needs to make sure that nothing is assumed. I am afraid the Development forum is too technical for me in most cases. I know the real work is done there, but someone over here needs to make sense (no pun intended) of it all.
I hope I have not offended anyone.
I am new (three weeks) to android. The Superguide and two users helped me get this far. That said it took a bit to understand what the Superguide was talking about. The acronym section is great, found it yesterday.
It would be nice to have it all in one section. Big thanks to slapshot30 for the hard work, as well as the others on xda.
I would be willing to help create a new super guide but at the same time I don't want to overstep my boundaries and take away from someone else's work. I will gladly put something together if there are no objections. Been wanting to for a while anyway.

That would be nice. Having all the new info as well as links to acronyms would be great for new users, probably cut down on questions and frustration. I would like it as well. I suppose a couple pm's and a line or two pointing out whose work it was...
Sorry it hasn't been updated for so long guys. I was under the impression that ever since the All-In-One tool came along, everyone migrated over to that. Can you explain better what more you are looking for though? I know I need to add things regarding upgrading the HBOOT. Maybe something involving S-OFF as well. I don't know the best way to go about it though. I feel like I'd need a few seperate complete guides for each different version of the device, which would be a cluster f***. I wouldn't need to do that if I included stuff about S-OFF but I don't feel it's right to just make everyone (noobs included) S-OFF their device. Just give me some opinions.
EDIT: The general knowledge thread is a great resource as well. As far as the all-in-one tool goes though, I won't be fully integrating that into my guide. That is Hasoon's and he already has a stickied thread for it. I have it linked in the top of the superguide as well.

Well like just remake it. it would be so much easier for you, i would be more that happy to help out
i suggest that if you do start over you just go step by step as you did your first one. that thread is so usefull and it is amazing, just outdated is all. so follow the same format for example first thing would be like how to unlock, root.... etc. then you would have s-off option then have a litle section for those who do decide to get s off and then a different one for those who decide to keep s-on.
idk, this is just a suggestion. if you are willing to really do this shoot me a pm ill be more than happy to help and ill even do it all if you dont feel you have the time or simply dont want to. but we would have to ask all the devs if this would be ok of course all of them will be given 100 percent credit for their outstanding work. and then we can start asap.
Just updated, still a little rough around the edges. Let me know in the dev thread if you have any suggestions.

I'm sure that there are a lot of people here like me that want to learn a bit about our phones, and would much prefer to read a guide and learn via a bit of playing around. When we get it wrong, well, stuffing it up just adds to the fun.
So, Slashdot, for me and I'm sure many others here your SuperGuide is a jewel, a chunk of concentrated knowledge in a sea of... of... oh, I don't know... other stuff!
Also, I use linux, so windows programs aren't a lot of use anyway.

Glad to hear people still like the "old fashioned" way . Different flavors for everyone. Some just want an easy click and root process, some like to get their hands dirty and learn some things that are actually pretty important. This is essentially the reason I haven't added any batch files to the guide, people need to learn this stuff involving the command prompt. I've made it pretty easy as it is in my opinion. I might add some batch files just for the heck of it though, just to avoid the headaches.
i dont want to s-off my device and want to install all the custom roms without doing it
someone pls guide me !
thanks..

Yeah sure, batch files / shell scripts are great - you can either just run them, or you can pick them apart to see what's happening. Or both.
Best of both worlds...

Unless your carrier has official ICS, then that is your only option if I'm not mistaken... Because if it doesn't have official ICS then we have no way of updating your HBOOT without getting S OFF.

Look in the other thread you made, I gave you some instructions. You might already have the latest version, or it might be the unofficial leak. You might want to run the RUU first just in case.
My galaxy nexus will continue running CyanogenMod for losing surport of OmniRom nightly build.
As CM11.0 is becoming more and more stable,I believe the nightly will coming soon.
We are gutted.
CM Nightlies arent our yet and IT IS BECOMING MORE N MORE STABLE :banghead:
What wait?
So OMNIROM no longer pledge support for Gnex?
Was looking for a 4.4 Kitkat rom from omni guess not...
No maintainer has a Galaxy Nexus. Give us a Galaxy Nexus (or find a maintainer with a Galaxy Nexus), and you'll have 4.4 nightlies.

I'm horrified at how many gnex users whine about omni not having a maintainer... Let all the whiners go to CM, good riddance. If all of you gnex users put as much energy in learning to maintain your own device as you do complaining, you'd probably have a stable release by now.

Blind development is impossible. The device won't be supported until someone from the community steps up and supports it.
There might be an existing maintainer with some spare bandwidth to support one of the gnex variants if provided a device - I personally don't have the time for it.

I personally never understood all these demands to ROM developers. It's not like we're paying them to do it and support it or anything. Must be the new entitlement generation... (Generation E, if you will).

People learning a new skill is by far the better way IMO.
By donating devices to someone, you:
1) Potentially eliminate the opportunity for someone else to do the bringup and gain skills
2) Potentially cause that developer to burn out in the long run - that is why I personally won't be taking on any additional devices for quite a while. I'm spread way too thin as it is.

And I'm sick of people being lazy, so...
If developers on here took the time to help every newbie out there, they wouldn't have any time to do what they do FOR FREE. Yes, you read that right. FREE. The real devs don't ask for donations. The real devs do this on their spare time, out of sheer devotion to the device and the technology. Not because some guy in the boondocks is requesting a feature or a bug fix. They all learned the hard way and SOME do give their time... And their knowledge. They just do it in a strategic way: By documenting on knowledgebases, wikis, articles, forums, etc.
So learn to google, learn to search, learn to learn. That's the TRUE spirit of XDA right there... Not what some of the forums are becoming: Harassment from impatient users who want it all right now for nothing. No offense intended, but "newbs" are only newbs because they choose to be. All the necessary information is out there. And if it's not, and you can show a proper breadcrumb of what you've done to get there, some dev somewhere can see the effort and help out. MAYBE.
Now if you'll excuse me, I have to repo sync.
BAM.

I've answered tons of questions in IRC... I've documented as much as I can why particular changes are made. However, there's a category of questions that fall into "handholding" because they're easily Googleable, or they are related to skills which can't be easily taught - they can only be learned by doing.
The problem is that every device is different, and the things you need to do in order to get one working are different for every device. If someone has a weird issue and a really esoteric log entry, then it's valid to ask if anyone has seen something similar (although you should Google first).
Learning to be a device maintainer is a long and difficult and frustrating process. Even if you're very experienced and familiar with Android, it requires immense amounts of patience and tons of time reading source code and reading through commit logs. There's no easy step-by-step recipe - it's all about developing troubleshooting and analysis skills, and those are best learned by doing.
Now there are some developers who do a poor job of documenting things - commit messages that are completely uninformative, unrelated changes made in a single commit, etc. - Most contributors to our gerrit know that such practices are a good way to get a -1 from me. (See my sig for a link to some general good practices...)

Honestly Entropy, you're one of the developers which I love following in the forums. Your interventions are always informative, you've got a great logic and even though sometimes you can be quite prompt in your way of answering, it's always justified. I have no doubt that you've helped many people and I'm sure your approach is always a "teach a man to fish" approach. I respect you very much, as I do other developers of similar nature, and I felt you should know this. Keep up the good work, and I look forward to reading other post from you.

I'm not a dev, but I would think statements like this really discourage them.
I do have a GNex that I haven't had luck selling. Was thinking about donating to Omni devs since they don't seem to have one. However, am having second thoughts if it makes it seem like people who whine and complain get what they want because they whine and complain.
@ Devs: PM me if you are interested in me sending a Verizon GNex to you for ROM development.

It's never too late to become a developer. When you have a problem, do you always wait expecting someone fixing it for you ? I hope not. Don't waste your time crying and waiting, nobody was born as a developer. Start learning now, you'll know already a lot before Android O is released on your phone.

No not even close really. See here is something many users dont understand. Developers dont make things for them (ok some glory hounds do but those people are normally complete idiots) Developers make the roms for themselves and decide to share it. Why do you think most teams do not support a device they dont own? Developers have no desire to prove anything really. To be honest, the real developers are some of the most anti-social people you will ever meet. This is the reason most dont even bother posting. They use other people as their voice.
As for fast. Well you can get something fast or you can get something done right. Considering there are no blobs or kernel source for this device anything that does come out before 1+ releases their update will be nothing more then a cheap hack.
This thread doesn't look to have a forseeable direction, This thread is now closed.
Lets start a counter in this forum and let devs know about popularity of this device so we can get good AOSP rom etc as fast as possible!

Really pointless thread. If you've followed any of the other AOSP request threads, you'll know that it's a very complicated and involved task. Amassing "+1" posts isn't going to motivate anyone more to take on such a task.
On a more personal note, I don't know why someone would buy a device like the Note 8 just to strip it of all of its features. Personally, I bought my device because of all the features Samsung has put on it. I wouldn't put AOSP on this, likely even if someone paid me, because it would defeat the purpose of having this device in the first place.

We all have different opinions and preferences, so I think we all belong here. Of course support for devs is always welcome, but a +1 thread may not be the most effective way to go about getting what you want...They can already see the view count on aosp-related threads after all. Maybe try reaching out directly instead.

Well, devs, I think, try to develop roms to attain a better experience, adding some features, taking out some not very popular ones, in general to make the overall performance better, as Max Terrible here stated, buying a note series device to strip it down of ALL the features that make it what it is, in my opinion, is pointless, to that effect, you should get a pixel device, clean pure android out of the box

Do explain to me how having a thread full of people posting +1 to try and convince a dev to make an AOSP ROM, is considered supporting the dev?
I definitely support the devs and the great work they do on here, but recruiting a mob to basically create a petition for someone to do something you want, is not what I define as support.
I assure you, any and all devs working on the Note 8 are aware of the very, very small group of people that want an AOSP ROM.

I definitely support the devs and the great work they do on here, but recruiting a mob to basically create a petition for someone to do something you want, is not what I define as support.
I assure you, any and all devs working on the Note 8 are aware of the very, very small group of people that want an AOSP ROM.

There would be lot of people who dont upgrade mobile regularly (may be 6 months) some upgrade after 2 years. And u might be knowing samsung way of updates so aosp rom etc is very help to have a taste of latest updates. I know only note special things wont be working but many extra things u will get in these roms. Till now we are not able to use gcams! This shows development for this rom. Intent of this thread was to see popularity of this device and let dev see the demand:laugh:
Thanks for +1 people! Lets go guys!!

A longtime fan of XDA since back when PDAs were the must have and XDA was doing great work way back then and served as my primary independent source of 'how to' and 'why the heck' tech

Yeah for me . I love to out my hardware as a testing and development utility. So Yeah I love android and root and Need help getting the things back the company thinks it owns. Well I know better and it's all started when J3 Emerge came out and I learned root and the possible second shot like mine is that $50 was what it costed then and now same so basically I know many people have my device and the development of it is all good with the things you can always find here at Xda.
