the simple idea of open source is sharing, and exchanging codes & ideas

the moment you take or use a code, and don't share back the changes that you have made, you are violating the open source, or in legal terms the GPL

many of the people that cooks ROMs here that only Kang from others work, but don't upload back the changes to the original coder, are technically in violation of the open source/GPL

more detailed and long winded explanations here http://www.opensource.org/docs/osd

[General Topics] Dirk:
It's called Courtesy.

If you modify somebody elses work and then release it back to the community as your own, without seeking permission or crediting the original dev for their work, then you can expect to be villified.

He may not have known any better but i'm sure he's learned his lesson.
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] W3BSurfer:
It appears an update to the Android Market is now being pushed out to handsets, and we've got the .apk file for you right now.

Warning: this updated Market does not seem to work very well on Honeycomb tablets, there appears to be a number of glitches.

What's changed? So far, we've found:

•New setting: Auto-update apps (presumably, sets all apps to auto-update mode, woohoo!)

•New setting: Update over Wi-Fi only

•New setting: Auto-add shortcuts (automatically adds homescreen shortcuts for new apps, ala Honeycomb)

•Smaller font

•New app drawer icon

•Microphone (voice command) button in search menu

•Star rating chart on app pages

•Minor UI tweaks

Update: I just installed the market. Everything seems to be in working order. Just d/l the apk. Use ur Root Explorer/File Manager. Run the .apk and install over ur old market. No need to replace vending.apk or setting permissions. Works fine as I did it that way. Smooth as butter.

[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] omni_angel7:
I've been using it all day. Didn't have any updates to test, but downloads work smoothly. I like the slight visual change. I had to replace vending.apk in my system apps, set permissions and reboot. G/L, I think you'll enjoy it.

Yes I cleared data and have followed the guide many many times. Even went back to old market. Still blank.
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] sdlopez83:
I reflashed and stopped my tiny mid recovery. And it was working. I think THE issue could be stemming from an gapps such as gmail. That backs up in tibu. Im not certain but next flash I will be morebconscientious .

For now im using app brain.

Update I think the issue is with gmail app. I did a tiny without gmail and my apps was working. I installed gmail from the market and it broke it. So Me thinks is its gmail. But everyone else would have this same issue so idk.

No Films on Desire HD

Hey. Im on an Atrix in the UK on O2 and am running CM7 (the latest beta) and now have the latest Market (3.3.11) from another link.

I've also forwarded the .apk to my wife and mate, both of whom are on a Desire HD in the UK.

Funny thing is, I have the option of Films, yet, with the same .apk, neither of them do. Just Apps, Games and Books. Very strange! Can anyone explain it? Either I'm not meant to have Films, or they are not meant to!

By the way, I have also used the same .apk on my Uk Transformer, which is unrooted. On there, I too have the options for Films!

I suspect it is HTC thing, but how/why?

(The reason I went looking for the .apk in the first place was because wifey was still stuck with version 2 of market as the Google update wasn't not coming through. Apparently that was an HTC thing - apparently they only release their Market updates with ROM updates. Is that true? or is my wife's phone glitchy? Hers is std uk Voda unrooted)

Thanks guys.

Atrix 4G with empty My Apps

As my title says... i'm another user with the empty My Apps section under the android market's app... yay for the new version. I've restored, cleared all erasable data to make this work (cache/data/app) and i've even installed stock sbf's with no luck once the new 3.3.11 version gets installed. I've also noticed that since the My Apps section doesn't work, so haven't the automatic updates for my apps.

Talked to shift on twitter yesterday, he said CM7 is being worked on. I honestly think what it is that people are happy with their phones just the way they are, so it brings less crowd. While it is smaller than the original Evo, there is still a pretty big following. Plus, this is just a US phone, so when comparing the Sensation with us is like apple and oranges. We just got mike and androidrevolution! Which is great.

[HTC EVO 3D] housry23:
The problem is, most AOSP ROM's(99.99%) are based off CM kernel source, so with no update to CM, there's no update to other AOSP ROM's. Many devs might want to wait until a few more bugs are worked out of CM before they start kanging. Once we get an RC1 or a stable CM release, you may see more AOSP love.
[HTC EVO 3D] iamdata:
Can the gsm users get some aosp love? Any roms?

Sent from my Evo 3D GSM...bring on the AOSP!!!
[HTC EVO 3D] SolsticeZero:
This man is right. Most AOSP is done by Cyanogenmod devs and kanged from there. I can guarantee you when they come out with a CM7 RC, there will magically be other AOSP roms.

Your right. I forgot about that.

[HTC EVO 3D] Sad Panda:
I have complained about this over and over, and will continue to complain in multiple threads until more people see the point I make and support that. Using someone else's kernel and/or ROM as a base for their "new" ROM isn't all bad all the time. It is analogous to game development on a PC using another developer's graphics/game engine (only with permission and proper credit of course!!). It saves time, and in some cases help that particular engine to advance, but it slows down new technological advancement in the industry as a whole.

Developers need to start honing their skills, start attempting to bring a ROM to the public that they built from the ground up, that includes a kernel build from the ground up too. Doing this eliminates such a large collection of ROMs that are all essentially the same, and because of the open source nature of Android it brings new technological advances to the public faster. It also raises the bar, the standard. The public will begin to expect more out of Android, and this in turn creates more motivation for a newer, better Android.

I think some developers have lost sight of the purpose and nature of open source information and products. Instead of hijacking someone's source code, and using it as a base for a new ROM with a new name, and small amount of new features, development should be done that conforms to the original intent and purpose of open source. Work together with a developer that has created a ROM [from the ground up] that is most similar to the product you want to create. Improve the ROM as a team, make bug fixes and enhancement to the existing ROM. That is what open source was meant to do. This will prevent a forum list of 32 half assed roms, and replace it with 10 really good yet unique roms.

If you can't find an existing ROM, a Dev team that has different ideas of what make a ROM good, or there is no ROM that exists that is similar enough to your vision of the product then, and only then should you develop something new.

I realize my views aren't going to match up with everyone else, but I am sure a happy medium could be found that produces a situation better than what we have now. Thanks for letting me rant, and for reading my thoughts!

I'm sorry, I originally had hoped for a much shorter post. I always try to get the thoughts in my head out "on paper" in the shortest, most efficient and least complex manner. This is my vision of a more free, "open source" world though. I think the freedom of information could be applied to many facets of society that would create a better future for all of us, and still preserve the competition that drives a more peaceful, better, cheaper, faster world. Sorry again!
[HTC EVO 3D] SolsticeZero:
The problem is that people don't always give credit where credit is due, which is one of the reasons some people don't like sharing stuff. I mean, let's say I made this awesome mod and let everybody use it. Then some kitchen dev comes along, kangs the **** out of it, doesn't mention me in his rom, and slaps a gigantic DONATE button at the bottom of his signature. It's frustrating.

Now I'm all about open source. I won't use a rom that doesn't post the source. That's the exact reason I won't use MIUI.
[HTC EVO 3D] Sad Panda:
I fully understand your frustration. I am a software engineer too so I know what you are going through. I have not yet begun developing for Android, but will. There is a little bit of a problem here that could easily be solved, and the community has a responsibility to protect the intellectual property rights that you and every other developer like you is entitled to. In fact it is a right that is protected by the integrity of the constitution of the united states, and many other countries and law enforcement around the world. This is a failure that not just developers, mods, and admins have, but a responsibility and failure that every user at xda shares no matter who they are.

First off; not to offend any MIUI developers that may be watching, but if you are developing for Android you need to be using a license that is open, and your source needs to be open too. This is especially true if you are using xda as a distribution medium, but sadly while xda has said they encourage, and want every development to be open source they are not forcing the matter. This is a failure I think. It also makes MIUI look suspicious too, as there isn't a way to verify if their source is uniquely theirs'. I personally believe xda should not allow software that is not open source to be distributed. If google didn't keep the open source principle when they acquired Android roms like MIUI would NOT exist! It is highly unethical to take the base ROM from google because it is open source, and then close the source. That is wrong wrong wrong! It is also illegal! You can not redistribute the Android OS even if you have made changes and then close the source and not maintain the software license google has on place.

Second; I believe as a user of xda it is your duty to maintain the integrity of the principles of xda, and Android. Don't support closed source works, voice your disgust so that xda sees the will of its users, that the over whelming majority wants things to remain open source. Tattle your ass off if someone has broke the copyright law and used someone's work without permission and credit.

It is important to keep both xda and Android running on the same principles it started with. Don't let this keep happening guys! This is very serious, a lot of developers are breaking the law doing what they are doing!
[HTC EVO 3D] Serren:
Or learn to code yourself and create roms from the ground up. Most devs do what they do for themselves first, and allow us to ride on their coattails. Not a bad ride if your like me and have no coding skills. Otherwise, I doubt your plea is going to convince a dev to do anything more or less then they do now, unless it interest them personally.

I do agree with you though. I'm coming from Android on the Touch Pro 2 where a small group of devs are building EVERYTHING from scratch. From the modems to the light sensor. It's a huge job done out of love for the hardware, for fun, and a passion for coding.
[HTC EVO 3D] il Duce:
he links only via twitter posts and in his IRC, send him a tweet. iirc still in beta, but he does some nice ROMs :)
[HTC EVO 3D] Sad Panda:
Thank you for your comment and support. I don't disagree with you. If you steal a loaf of bread to feed yourself, is it any less of a crime than to steal a loaf of bread to feed you and your family and friends? Or is it the same or worse?

I think either way it isn't ethical. People need to think less about themselves I think. I must reiterate and clarify so I am not misunderstood. I don't think it is inherently bad to be using a ROM as your base, but it is wrong to then close the source of a previously open piece of work and/or not maintain the original license, and give credit in every spot it should be given in. That would include its distribution, the license, the source code itself, and any where else that you put your own version, app info, and copyright notice. Am I wrong?
[HTC EVO 3D] pstevep:
Let me preface this by saying that I agree with you..

However android is meant to be open source, the license that they use (Apache) does not require it.. The reason they chose the Apache license was to give people the freedom to choose (their words). So technically people like miui don't have to post source for anything other than kernel (which is GPL).

This link has some good info on it.

http://source.android.com/source/licenses.html

But even CM doesn't have to provide source, which in recent history they haven't while starting builds.. We can't demand source, when the licensing doesn't demand, but that doesn't mean we still can't prove direct kang. The reason I have android over anything else is the freedom it gives and the open nature of it.

Edit: and you should always credit someone if you are using their work, and also have their permission. I was referring to general source from android itself, not from each other.

The problem is, nobody wants to start a ROM from the ground up, and the people that do are already involved into team projects (CM/MIUI). It takes a long time to create a ROM from the ground up that utilizes all of a phone's hardware properly. Look how long it took CM to get 4G onto the EVO 4G, and that was a team of highly skilled individuals practically reverse engineering code to do it.

Now imagine all of the copy and paste kitchen users here trying to accomplish that. It just won't happen lol.

That's why we have pretty much the same thing in different colors. It kind of sucks, but hey, HTC did the majority of the work, and if something already works good enough, the average person will be fine with and use that.

Yeah, it does slow down the evolution and innovation of Android as a whole, but you have to put some of the blame on OEMs for pushing out 45 different phones a year. Nobody is going to be encouraged to create something from the ground up for a phone that will be replaced and obsolete by the time they're finished.

The G1 is the prime example of a great phone that got tons of developer support, tons of new things, and tons of unique ROMs. But that was the beginning, and I doubt that's ever going to happen again.

HTC all but pushed this EVO 3D out, and forgot about it. They've released a good 19 phones since then at the rate they're going, most of us will have moved on to the next one in a few months. Sad but true.

That is why I have stuck with and will probably continue to use a Stock ROM, modified to my liking and stripped. There isn't much else you can hope for. 3D has failed to really take off like HTC and the rest of us wanted. There is no motivation for any of the teams out there to focus on reverse engineering their ROMs to use 3D. MIUI to this day hasn't bothered with WiMAX and with good reason. Sprint all about blatantly announced its slow death in favor of LTE. It would have been a waste of time for the MIUI team to implement it. Kudos to Team Win and CM for gracing us with it on the EVO 4G. But, hindsight has probably made people mad that all of their time and energy went into something that's getting canned.
