Well "apparemtly" Nik tried uploading the Rom 3 or 4 times about 2 weeks ago, but I'm not buying that excuse.

Alright lol. Yea im not buying he tried 3 or 4 times uploading it...... Im thinking he needs more time for the ROM. Lets just hope its as great as all other ROMs Nik's made or ported.

You guyz are putting too much pressure on nik.
Remember this is a privelage, nit a right. He is not obliged to supply roms to us, it is volounteery

Why must he make excuses then? Why can't he just tell us straight.

Have a heart guys, Nik's just moved to Italy for higher studies. He already has enough on his plate (new country, strange lingo, inadequate funds, restricted to public or free (read limited) college WiFi /no internet etc). You think he needs to care more for the flashing needs of you guys, than what he's facing now? Stop whining at his heels like noisy puppies at mealtime. Put a sock in it and do meditation or yoga, it improves your patience quotient.

Well I supported Nik when he said that he had difficulties uploading the rom, I still belive him for the fact that most connection has 50kb/s in upload..
BUT
Another guy offered to upload the rom for him; I suggested him to split the rom in 2+ files so that he could upload the files without getting interruped by timeout ( every 15-20 the campus's connection ask to relog-in)...
He accepted an IncS (without battery) from someone and disappered from his facebook page for 10days...
2days ago said that he was sorry because he was busy...
He could behave differently, I don't know what to think...
probably if I had my phone rooted and still s-off'ed I would be under his home pretending the rom xD

Well im just asking what happened. Cuz Project X v4.1 from the index of stuff, the download link disappeared and plus he said he would do upload it... never did..... and im currently using dla's Unofficial CyanogenMod 10.1. I really dont have much need for a new ROM right now (CyanogenMod 10.1 got CRT-OFF XD). Just I was wondering...

Wow I'm so sad, i was gone for a week or two and ......

I can't believe this, I left for a bit, went back to my xperia play.
put together a quick theme for my xperia play (it's so much easier to theme, it's already blue).
Then came back with my raider/vivid ready to work (xperia play is my daily now) and looks like pirategohst left, wildchild left. I'm so sad.
I was so ready to move from VJraiders rom to Pirategohost rom. but if development is dead why bother.
One thing i can say, this phone seems to not get much work on it like other devices, I have an xperia x1 (i know it's old), xperia x10, xperia play, htc evo 3d and all those devices are worked on daily. I know the raider is the newest device but....
Well enough with that, time to put to rest my raider and play with my evo 3d and play. all i need now is sony to release the xperia s and I'll be good.
Hey wildchild and pirateghost sad to see you leave and hope all is well, take care.
BYE BYE raider.
PM me if you want to make me an offer for my raider, it's from rogers.
Sad is right... I was about to buy a Raider/Vivid... But it looks as though the entire Dev community has decided to pull support... No sources, no links, no ROMS aside from Cyanogen and shipped?!?!
Sad scary day, I'll look around for XDA alternatives, but this makes me fairly upset, I've got a couple other androids at home, and there's a fair share of fighting on dev, but in the end it's about making a GOOD ROM, for yourself, and sharing it with a community... I can't fathom the flame wars that started in this forum.
Oh well, I'll wait for the HTC One series LOL
This was already a small dev community, and then the fact that a bunch of people wouldn't listen and bother taking the effort to try and read and really understand what they were doing meant they screwed up a very expensive device.
Oh well, everyone is already off to the One series.

If i change the xml's in framework res it makes sense crash after the first boot. this is what caused me to set my xperia play back up, I need a daily phone.
then i was going to try and fix what was causing the issue. i needed to be able to flash and reflash each time i mod the apk's.
Funny thing is, my raider is the fastest phone i have right now and the more i use my xperia play i really miss the speed of a dual core cpu.

Do you get the apk from the dist folder after building it on apktools? Or are you replacing the res folder on the original apk file?

I use the apk in your rom, then run it in apktools, then recompile with no errors.
I did not have an issue with version 2 of you rom.
But just to be clear, the apk's i theme are all from your rom, thats why they wouldn't work in any other rom.
They're all around if you know where to look. WC is on his own site, and I saw Pghost post on that site about obtaining and possibly porting the Endeavor RUU. Cm9 development is paused until we get kernel sources from HTC, so not all is lost. It just requires patience.

I really don’t care what happens to the Vivid anymore since the HTC One X and the Galaxy SIII should be out in a month or two. I’m sure those two beasts will have a ton of developer support. I guess next time I’ll make sure to get a more popular phone even though I think the Vivid is one of the best LTE phones that AT&T has.

Buyer needs advice

Hi guys, I think there is quite an unbelievable offer for Austria Hutchinson users. Basically you get this phone for 69€ on a 20€ x 24 months contract. With the contract you get also 1000 minutes 1000 SMS and Internet unlimited so should be fine. Before I saw that I thought of sticking to my galaxy s for a while.
Now that said I would love to take it as long as the offer lasts, but I am concerned about 3 things:
a) i am a custom Rom user since 2 years. Never been on stock again. And I looooooove cyanogenmod! Do you think there will be custom roms for this?
b) the camera quality. While I'm not too much concerned about the video quality, I use my phone as a compact camera outside to take pictures. So how bad is it in your opinion? And do you think will it improve with upcoming updates?
c) you know something about the possibility of unlocking this phone?
I guess probably I'm asking too much but maybe someone knows better.
Thanks in advance!

It's only an okay camera, there's better, the Galaxy 3 has a better one for instance, not by that much, but clearly. No idea if this is a hardware limitation, but I'd guess so.

No idea ... but I guess with root you should be able to do more or less anything,e specially, once CWM etc are there? But I'm no pro.
We have root and CWM now, devs are working on CM10 and 4.0.4 Sense 4.1, so soon we'll have great ROMs :laugh:
And i think we'll have unlocked bootloader soon too.
Hey guys,
This phone looks really cool. I was thinking of buying this phone. I want a phone that can get rooted and a lot of ROMs. Do u think Im in the right place?
I have read a lot of reviews and from what I can gather is that this phone is a tad better than the One X and a loses the battle just barely vs the GS3.
What do you guys think? What are the pros and cons of this phone?
Also which is better looking? The white or black model?
Thanks in advance guys!

You shall like the white one. Also, your favorite food is grilled chicken, and you'll only drink root beer. Also, move to Mumbai, which is your favorite city from now on. Any other totally personal decisions you can't make I'm happy to answer, too.
Hey thanks dude!
I was asking because I've never owned anything but Motorola Androids and they have locked bootloaders. Ive never seen this phone in person and the reviews online only show the white one, so I asked here for this awesome community's opinion...
Also I like grilled chicken but prefer steak. Hate root beer, and if I lived anywhere it would be 'MERICA. Ill be sure to visit Mumbai sometime though maybe we can have a beer together.

Is LG policy still suck and unreliable? Since the older models like O2X said to not get ICS!
Yesterday I saw it in the market ,and it has the same price as HOX , I saw some comparison which end by no winner, yet the HOX really has a good support by both the company & xda community ,so from a fear comparison aspect ,which yr choice in case of : screen,camera quality and shutter speed ,video quality(some said its better in the OneX even with has low fps compared to O4X! ), and battery, thx ahead

This is not an answering machine...
Personally, I chose the LG because it has exchangable battery and micro SD slot. They both have Tegra 3 and good displays, so it's no big difference hardware-wise. HTC has a large fanbase, so you'll have more custom roms on the HOX, plus the possibility to unlock your bootloader with HTCdev. LG might learn and do something similar, but as they're not open in saying what they do, no one can tell.
I was checking on eBay yesterday cuz I want a LG O4X and saw there was a developer version kinda like the Razr has one too... can anyone confirm this?

I don't expect any more real development for our device without some serious help from tj_style(which is highly unlikely). I know that abenagiel is trying to develop cm from source. Even Ck is also doing something with the sources (at least that is what i make out from his git activity). But what we really need is a developer who has experience in modding the kernel source itself. I don't mean to say that aben and ck are incapable of doing so, but just that for the faster progress we need an experienced dev. I don't see this going far beyond what we already have in ICS.
Most of us are just going to selll our devices in near future.
Just my 2 cents
Evolution it tough on our device.... :thumbdown:

.. soon there will no hearbeat in the forum.. more developers are leaving.. will there be any last celebrations? Sad, so sad..

Nothing more than what you already see in the bounty thread. You, Vivek and me; looks like we are the only ones who would have this device in the long run.
But wait, In India too many cheaper china devices are being launched at competent prices and I believe now the price for our used device in india is not worth more than INR 4000 so we might hit it before its too late:good:. But only if ppl here provide contributions. Many from this board would buy those devices, and i am damn sure that if you buy any other device you will not have such an easy courtesy of changing roms and trying different things as boldly as with this one.
I believe in the powers of one person; that a single person can influence the entire community. That's what tj stands for. And this is the reason why if we could just find one developer then he may actually rejuvenate this dying board.
There might be personal unavoidable reasons for not to donate.
If this is were it stops, I would say I am pretty happy:cyclops:.
long time no see.. i know we are in the sorrow situations and so many of our friend decided to sell his device.. and also there was no news from all developers,, I'm still working on ardx cm10 sources.. my goal is to fix cm10 camera from pure build from source and I'm not sleep at all night to fix that.. that was my reason not shown at this forum..

Hey aben can you share your build as an alpha even without functioning camera? And please dont over work yourself i dont think we deserve anything more than what u already have given. Take your time and have regular sleeps, that way you have more chances of fixing it. Also i suggest you contact dzo, tj and randomblame i am sure they will be happy to guide.

Sorry if I report it in Indonesian language because that was Indonesian Facebook group,, this is in English :
"Still stuck on the camera, overall its still same with ardx's build just using different kernel build from my kernel source,,"
I will release the tester pre-alpha build after I fix some minor bugs,, but camera still not work of course (will take a long time to fix camera)
List of minor bugs :
- low audio call (show randomly)
- WiFi (its my kernel fault)
- Apollo music player doesn't scan media in sdcard (I'm using third party app music player right now)
- tethers (if I can or I try to fix for the next release)
I need more times to release that because its take more than 6 hours to build ROM from my core 2 duo laptop
#building is more harder than porting

sense 4+

is there a sense + rom for the vivid?
No. There is a version on an Asian website that claims to be Sense4+ on ICS, but you won't find it here, and I don't know how tested or functional it is. For now you have Sense 3.6 or a few AOSP roms.
It's awesome! Everything works perfect!

It's on a tightly closed beta right now, so you won't be able to get it for a while (weeks, months, years, never). But once it's officially released I'm sure you'll read about it.
Alright I have been as nice as possible regarding this whole kanged Rom situation for over a month now but it ends NOW! The next person who creates a thread or a post about it I will issue an infraction and possibly have you banned. This is my last warning!

[Q] Why is Incredible S CPU msm7x30?

Hey there!
I have just received a vivo, and I would like to develop for it. The phone's specs state that vivo is msm8255, but when I look into the device tree of the phone, the ROMs use msm7x30 platform. Can someone please explain this to me?
Also, does anyone know the name of chips in vivo. This is a very hard thing to find. For example, the bluetooth is BCM4329.
If no one has this information then it is alright, but I would like to my first question answered.
Thank You. :good:

100% same chipset as the 7x30 devices, our 8255 is essentially an overclocked 7x30 like on desire z
That's why desire z has same chipset as us
Bcm 4329 is WiFi too, but bcmdhd is used for AOSP and sense 4 which is ported from One V or latest prima
Wikipedia has some good information

Why is it so important? As poondog said, our CPU just an msm7x30 on higher clock. But we have that CPU's board name, why? Qualcomm knows... Like the MSM8225 and MSM8625Q (dual and quad-core Cortex-A5 CPUs) has msm7x27a board names. Why? Qualcomm knows...

OK guys. Thanks for your time.
One last question: Is there a 3.4 kernel for vivo?

This is off topic, but...
Yes, Adelaide is a boring city. Nothing here to look at (can only look at myself in the mirror)
But what I do like about Adelaide is that it is a planned city; it is very hard to get lost here (even if someone tells you to get lost). When I went to Sydney, I got lost, because the roads aren't straight forward. I've also visited Melbourne, but I didn't like it, because the city there is too tight; the roads are very small, and the trams on the road take up too much space. But Melbourne kind of reminds me of my home country (Pakistan).
By the way, I do know somewhat about kernel development. I have tried to port a 3.4 kernel to a previous device, and I got the kernel to boot, but I coudn't get the ROM to boot. The phone died really quickly and now I cannot fully port the 3.4 kernel to it anymore, however someone else with the same device has already ported it, and I know how he did it. So, I am going to try it with vivo. But, I won't gurantee success.

Yeah haha fair enough it's boring
@szezso has tried but there are like no similar devices with a working 3.4.Y kernel so it's a bit hard.. working with like only one similar 3.4.Y device haha
