I wonder how long it will take for another mod to get pissed at the comments in the thread and close it. Some people don't know how to interact with others.

The final word by a "senior mod" thedeadcpu on the venting thread before closing and locking the thread:

AllGamer = Moderator

You = User

Moderator > User

This is a perfect example of the condescending power trip mentality of mods sometimes. They see themselves as better than others. You are not better than others. You are the same as members. Continue to act like this and people will get angry and resist you and the likes of you. It's not what you say or do, it's how you say or do it that can mean the difference between cooperation and resistance/strife.

This incident, and previous others, could have been taken care of if "the powers that be" went about correcting the situations differently by learning how to communicate to others in a way that isn't condescending, threatening, or cold.

Example:

Sending a pm or email to (whoever created the thread):

"We appreciate your input and help in the forums. Developers, and their work, are the reason people come to this site. Could you please put a little more information on your post about your rom (pictures/changes/etc)? It would help improve clarity and help more people understand your work better. Think of it like you're trying to promote your product to the public. Pictures, explanations, changelogs, bugs, to-dos, working or not working, are things that would help both you and us (xda).

Like I said in the beginning, we very much appreciate what you are doing here at xda. If you have any questions or need help, just let me know and I'll do what I can. Thank you again for your time and hard work!

mod"

Does that take too much time to treat a person with respect and gratitude for their work and show them some areas that would greatly help from more information? If the OP was doing something that was clearly against the rules, then you can explain that to them without saying it in a way that is threatening or anger producing?

I know that nothing I say or suggest will change anyone's behavior. I hope it might make some of the more reasonable people think a little first before they speak or act.

If your online time is limited because of IRL responsibilities, and suggestions such as these are asking too much of you, then perhaps you've got too much going on IRL and should pass the online responsibilities to someone or people who do have the time to spend online everyday.

just bookmarked his page why all the harassment towards him and closing and policing his other threads he is a top dev that puts out great work.

im not calling out or blaming mods because i don't know the full story not sure if they are just following rules but this site is becoming a joke
[Nexus S General] mattallica76:
We really aren't sure why he was singled out. There were several other ROM threads that were guilty of the same "violations". Eventually, those threads were moved as well, but for a mod to come into the dev section and only take action against Pete's thread initially, suggests that someone must have reported his thread.

[Nexus S General] DominoDoug:
I'm not sure that Pete has implemented the battery percentage graphic into his ROM.
[Nexus S General] jta462:
Its a stock Rom with a custom kernel. I don't believe there is a bat percent mod. You can use kitchen or most clock Widgets, as beautiful Widgets, fancy Widgets ext, have that ability as well as countless apps such as circle battery. I also use widget locker. . . Which has that option as well. Just not in status bar. That's a mod which are available in the kitchen or in themes and apps section for nexus s.
[Nexus S General] mikel719:
Lmao... My bad, I forgot what thread I was in. ya it's not in this rom.
[Nexus S General] herbthehammer:
In case you don't know where to find the rules, it's not really obvious, they are here:

http://xdaforums.com/announcement.php?f=263

If you're lazy:

My emphasis added.

After myself reading this a few times, I've come to the conclusion that some of the "enforcing of rules" and "infractions" dished out by some people, don't CLEARLY fall under these rules. Some seem a stretch from what rules are saying and some seem just made up and saying they are "the rules." Some incidents I've witnessed quietly, and may have had been on the receiving end of, don't fall under these "rules." Is there another set of rules for this forum? Are there additions to these posted rules that are elsewhere on the site? Perhaps the rules page should be updated with some of the things that the mods are saying are against the rules, but aren't listed on that page I gave the link to and quoted.

I, personally, was given a points infraction for one of these rules listed above. When I went to the page and read them thoroughly, I didn't see how I broke the rule. What I did that I got "written up" for, didn't fall under the rule's definition of what isn't allowed.

You see anything in there about basebands or screenshots or links (that fall under acceptable conditions as listed in the rules)? I don't.
[Nexus S General] DominoDoug:
This is basically beating a dead horse. There's obviously an underlying issue. I had email correspondence with an admin and they said there needs to be a direct link to the ROM download and an odd screenshot. There also can't be a sign up or ads on the site where the download is. (which there isn't) When I directed them to Pete's site as proof correspondence ceased. I'm done.

I've been running the new kernel since it was released. Love it. No, the battery code fix is not bad for your battery.
[Nexus S General] obsanity:
We can't put this aside. We need to create a new thread about it and keep opening it even after they close it. There needs to be something written before you start requiring the rules. Besides, the funny thing is Pete didn't even break the rules they DON'T have written. This is just plain BS.

CWM zip to install the latest Wallet

I don't think it's broken, it works but just won't update through the market again.

Here is a zip that will install the latest version of Wallet. I just took Pete's previous Wallet fix, and pasted in the new Wallet apk. I tested this on my Nexus S 4G.

Edit: Hey Mattalica76, I added your post with fix to post#2 on page#1. All credit is direct to you and you alone. Just thought it could be on page #1 for other bugless beast users. Gone
[Nexus S General] mattallica76:
Thanks.

I actually edited my post with the fix file this evening. It's a different link for the same file, but I renamed the file to reflect the current version number of Wallet. I just wanted to make sure folks didn't get it mixed up with Pete's previous fix zip (which has the same name, wallet.zip). The old link still works also, but doesn't have the version number in the filename.

Here is the new link if you would like to add it to or replace the link on the first page.

Edit: Updated link to version 1.1-R38v5

[Nexus S General] fleury14:
Thanks for the link but unless there has been another update that file doesn't work.
[Nexus S General] mattallica76:
There was an update to Wallet a couple of days ago. The links I provided will update you to the latest Wallet Version 1.1-R38v4 (assuming you are running GPA19 for the Nexus S4G). Again, I have tested and confirmed this to work on the Nexus S 4G only. I don't have the other devices.
[Nexus S General] fleury14:
Sorry I should have added that it worked this morning but when i went into my apps a few minutes ago it was asking for another update so i tried it got package not signed. Then I downloaded your latest link and it was still looking for it. No big deal. I'm not complaining please don't take it that way.
[Nexus S General] mattallica76:
No, you are correct. It looks like Google just pushed another update for Wallet to the market. I will post an updated zip when I get home tonight if Pete doesn't beat me to it.
[Nexus S General] info[]box1:
My Google wallet is good, thanks to that zip.
[Nexus S General] fleury14:
Thanks. I didn't want to come off as ungrateful.
[Nexus S General] mattallica76:
Yes, the zip will flash a working Wallet, but it appears there is another update in the market again.

Here is the zip the latest version of Wallet that Google published to the Market today.

http://www.mediafire.com/file/qz26kmo151cz2cg/Wallet_1.1-R38v5.zip

This will update the Wallet app to version 1.1-R38v5.

I'm removing the links to the older version that was published a couple of days ago.
[Nexus S General] AndyC43:
Got it. Thanks! :D
[Nexus S General] mattallica76:
No worries. If you wouldn't have said anything, I wouldn't have even noticed there was a newer version on the Market already. Hopefully Pete or someone else can figure out a way to let it update through the Market conventionally.

No problem.
