Have you tried turning it off and on again? :-P
[Epic 4G General] jbadboy2007:
@ nullghost I know you and devin extreme and decadence are also great devs so don't think I was trying to take anything away from any of you. I just think the cm7 team needs a lil extra muscle right now to get this done.
[Epic 4G General] ptfdmedic:
And your personal experience is what? Do you have first hand knowledge? Are you qualified to make such a statement "a little OCD, poor social skills and a nervous tick doesn't qualify as autism to me". Those are actually classic signs of autism. Statements like that should be reserved for people who have first hand knowledge and or experience. My comments are not meant to be an attack or be disrespectful but as someone with a lot of first hand experience my statements are very accurate. Many people with Aspergers struggle through life. Referring to some one like Bill Gates who is believed to have aspergers isn't anti awareness at all. Whether Bill Gates has Aspergers or not is not the point. The are many successful people with aspergers and just as many that really struggle. What it does is inspire or give hope to people struggling with the same disorder. As a parent to 3 boys on the sepectrum, 1 Autism spectrum disorder, 2 with Aspergers and a wife with Aspergers, knowing that there are very successful adults living with Aspergers gives me hope when things are really bad.

And for the record I agree that Aspergers should not be included as a spectrum disorder. It doesn't paint an accurate picture of what lower functioning persons with autism and their families struggle with.
[Epic 4G General] amirite:
You don't seem to understand why exactly CM is at a standstill. It is not lack of manpower. It is lack of resources, and those resources must be provided by Samsung and Sprint. THAT'S IT. Until then its just a waiting game, there's literally nothing we can do to help.

The only way more developers would help is if you brought in 100 of them. THAT's muscle, and a whole different ballgame. You could delegate tasks, get some guys scraping the code or debugging, but... wait a minute, that idea isn't even possible! But thats what it would take. Putting another developer into an awkward position just because you're impatient isn't going to do ****.

Until then, people in these forums really need to get themselves educated on the ROMs they care about instead of posting ignorant crap like this thread. Keeping yourself informed is honestly the best way to show these devs the respect they deserve, so that they can go on continuing to do the work they enjoy without having to worry about weirdos putting them on some kind of pedestal.
[Epic 4G General] JMMusic:
As the father of an autistic child, I believe I am fully qualified to have an opinion on the subject.

And this is why I have the opinion I do. There are no successful people with autism. Lumping autism and aspergers together muddies the waters.

Then in this we are in agreement.

[Epic 4G General] jbadboy2007:
Maybe you didn't see the post where nullghost asked specifically for another dev that was good with kernels to help look at it. Which by the way is noobnl. When you are part of a community you are able to call upon those that might have the best skill set to complete the task. If you disagree that's fine but your the wierdo and a troll for being counter productive and trying to flame people for trying in my own little way to get one of the best accomplishments this phone will prolly ever have. So its not impatience from which I'm coming from. If you paid attention what so ever you would know that cm7 team has lost a few members. If anything I think it was ballsy to call out someone like noobnl and for him to breifly oblige shows the community of which I'm speaking. I'm sorry if you haven't been apart of this long enough to understand this.
[Epic 4G General] 063_XOBX:
OP, no matter how you try to justify what you did, it was an incredibly rude gesture to publicly call upon noobnl simply because you are impatient. What you may call "ballsy" others can call "ungrateful" or "impatient".
[Epic 4G General] xjman:
I want to ask a serious question. Why is noobnl so important to all of you? You have far more knowledgeable people, who have far more tallent.

You want to call upon him for CM7 but he couldn't get that far with cm6 with a whole fleet of people telling him how to fix stuff.

I don't understand the fascination with someone who basically steals work, and *****es and moans about everyone being inferior to him.
[Epic 4G General] musclehead84:
I donk know yje fascination myself either. He's done some great things for the epic but we have other talented developers as well. I don't understand why some people like to kiss is ass.

"The greatest respect you can earn is self respect" Louie Simmons
[Epic 4G General] jbadboy2007:
Like I said before I don't see any other dev stepping up to help. Maybe it is rude but I'm trying to motivate someone to help the cm7 team that is my contribution.
[Epic 4G General] xjman:
The hangup is less lack of knowhow, and more lack of source for the closed source stuff. Possibly when the official source is released for 2.3 they will be able to move forward, but I think the problem is what drives 4g, is close source touchwiz bull crap.

[Epic 4G General] ptfdmedic:
Your outlook is pretty sad man. I'm not criticizing you because I do understand. You should do a bit of research because there are MANY successful people with Autism (not referring to Aspergers). If you would like proof, watch the new documentary "Loving Lampposts: Living Autistic". I'm partnered with the Studio and just gave a copy away. It's s great movie and gives a lot of perspective. You'll meet several successful adults with Autism. You can't give up. Saying there are NO successful people with Autism is like saying that your child and my son will NEVER amount to anything. My son will do great things in his own way. I won't speak to you personal situation cause I don't know anything about you but I can offer to help connect you with other parents fi your interested. You can see how Autistic people can be successful. Success is a relative term.....I would say that we owe to our kids to at least remain open minded and not stop believing. I wish you the best of luck. If I can be of any help, PLEASE let me know.
[Epic 4G General] JMMusic:
I think "success is a relative term" is where our views diverge. I have high hopes that my son will be able to live on his own and hold a job. If that is "success" (relatively), then yes, I do have hope for his "success". I don't really consider that to be successful, though. I just consider that to be survival. I have no hope that he could ever advance up the corporate ladder, handle kids of his own, make more than than a modest living, or many other things that fit into my personal definition of success.

I will admit, with his insanely good memory I have seriously considered teaching him how to count cards and taking him to Vegas when he turns 21. I might be able to create success...
[Epic 4G General] dreamsforgotten:
Thank you, wondered the exact same thing figured it would be an instant flame comment. It is a very relevant question that seems to escape them. You just made my morning.
[Epic 4G General] dreamsforgotten:
You confused success with vanity? Making an honest living and surviving on his own isn't success? Bet you one thing, bet my life on it. I don't have an autistic child but I ben around them plenty. No matter how "disabled" he is when it comes to outward expression and communication, that brain if sharp as a scaple and he's too smart to get caught up in vanity. Best of luck.
[Epic 4G General] djbacon06:
I don't have an autistic child, or a child at all for that matter, and I don't mean to tell you how to live your life/raise your child. But that just doesn't seem right at all to me, on many levels.

To each their own, I suppose.
[Epic 4G General] dreamsforgotten:
+1, rainman = how to raise special needs kids for dummys. I was really hoping that last part was a joke though, still got a glimmer of hope!
[Epic 4G General] JMMusic:
I see people all around me making an honest living and surviving on their own. I don't consider them to be "successful" people. I know my definition of success is not uncommon, as when someone is referred to as "successful" in conversation, the media, etc., it is never because they make enough money to pay the rent.
[Epic 4G General] ptfdmedic:
Wow...just.....wow...:(
[Epic 4G General] dreamsforgotten:
Fox news just shed a tear the tube really does program ppl, and I just thought that was a saying. I guess success != happiness
[Epic 4G General] ptfdmedic:
+1000 on that Dreams. Success is different for everyone. As parents we must be very careful not to set the bar, our expectations or even our standards unattainably high. To me, success is reaching or exceeding one potential whatever that potential is. Maybe it's climbing the corporate ladder to some and to others it's simply persevering despite all of life's challenges. We need to have a realistic understanding of what success is.

Children, especially those with Autism are quite perceptive and very often have a symbiotic relationship with their parents. Meaning they feel what you feel. If you don't believe in your child can be successful, how do you think that makes them feel?...... We need to believe in our kids despite their challenges...and they NEED to know it.
[Epic 4G General] Shoulon:
And I wish a lot of parent's would understand that what u put into caring for your children is what will become their outcome. It's not only about being there for them. It's 80% emotional. I see too many bad parents around where I live.
[Epic 4G General] JMMusic:
I don't agree with T-ball games where nobody keeps score either. And how do I think that makes my kid feel? I think it makes him feel competitive enough to keep straight As (and my competitiveness keeps him in mainstream classes, which I have had to fight the board of education over through hearings and threatened lawsuits for the past five years in a row). Realistically, however, he will never be anybody's boss. It would take a special kind of woman for him to ever be anybody's husband, and being a "father", with all that entails, is probably out of reach no matter what.

I am instilling in him what he needs to survive, as all parents should. Success depends on many things, most far out of the reach or influence of parents. If you define success as surviving, then I will guarantee his success. I, personally, have higher standards, for myself, my progeny, and anyone else that exists in this world.

And an on-topic comment... I don't like noobnl's work. I respect the work he's done, it just isn't up to my standards for reliability (this opinion stretches back to his work on the Moment). Too much "this is cool", not enough "this works well".
[Epic 4G General] tetshi:
Wow, for a second I thought I was in high-school. Then I remembered I'm on the internet with a bunch of overly dramatic people who should realize they're on a web forum based on CELLULAR PHONES.

[Captivate General] Overgloc:
I got a cappy and love it but my wife dont so i got her a HTC inspire and its SUC on battery life!! She hate it so i need help choosing new phone for her. Thanks guys

Atrix or Infuse? or? Att network only.
[Captivate General] rpicaso:
I would definately get her the Infuse, although you will then have the problem of being jealous of wifey's new phone, lol. I am in the opposite position. My gf loves my cappy and I can take it or leave it, so when I get my infuse next month she will inherit my cappy. The Atrix just feels too plastic/junky to me and odds are there will be far more options for modding the infuse than the Atrix. Take her to the AT$T store and let her monkey with both of them a bit. Good luck!:D
[Captivate General] insaneturbo13:
my girlfriend got an inspire a few weeks ago and hers gets awesome battery life, she can go two days before charging, and thats pretty heavy use, but stock it wasnt that great, i installed rcmix3d

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=984805

you might try it, seems to work pretty darn good for battery, failing that, i would go with the infuse ;)
[Captivate General] foxbat121:
Most phones have similar battery life. With 3G data on, you will not pass two-day mark of normal usage. If you want longer battery life, switch to 2G or turn off data.

For ladies that usually don't like to tweak their phones, an iPhone or WP7 phone is more appropriate choice, IMO. My wife certainly don't like my Captivate at all (me neither :)).
[Captivate General] studacris:
What exactly does this thread have to do with the captivate?

Sorry, just seeing as this is the captivate general sub-forum, you'd think it would have at least something to do with the device.
[Captivate General] Overgloc:
Thanks for all the replie everyone. I rooted the inspire and try couple diff rom and battery still bad. Unplug in the morning and it down to 30 percent by 3pm with little to no use. im going to get her an infuse and well see how its work out. Thanks to ATT 30 days trial.
[Captivate General] ThreeofNine:
Did your wife even try to play with your Cappy? Especially now that they're FREE at WalMart!!! Then if she likes it, move it over to the world of Serendipity 7. IT IS AMAZING!!!

[Captivate General] yguns76:
Go with the smaller & lighter phone, My 2 cents.
[Captivate General] Overgloc:
Yea she play around with my phone and she just don't like the way its feel i guess. Reading about the attic and its seem to have a bad battery also. So I'm going to go Pick up an infuse for now.
[Captivate General] jonp92:
Just saying, CM7 on the Inspire is pretty awesome.
[Captivate General] foxbat121:
Normal use doesn't mean play games for an hour. None of my friends ever bring a spare battery with their HTC phones,even the one with HTC TB. I'm pretty sure my Captivate will pretty much dead if I play games for an hour.

Transfered my contacts via Bluetooth from my previous dumbphone.

Downloaded a number of apps, eventually rooted and installed CM7 a few days later. Also, ordered an actual car charger and an extra Micro-USB cable.

Cleaned up and sorted my contacts in Gmail so they'd sync nicely on the phone.
