[Fascinate General] skynet11:
A few days ago (practically an eternity in XDA years), nitsuj17 exposed the work of our favorite Uberdev as nothing more than a straight up kang of CM7 and his Espresso thread was locked. He got a lot of blowback for that (including some from me) because it temporarily put the kibosh our lulz. Of course, we were just kidding with our "thanks a lot nitsuj17!" posts, but he did decide not to expose more of the Uberdev's misdeeds for fear we might lose out on our lulz.

Now, however, our favorite Uberdev has a new thread for a "new" kernel, and we all rejoiced at having a fresh source of lulz. The problem with this is that he STILL has not learned his lesson - the "new" kernel is nothing more than comradesven's KGB kernel with a 1.9 Ghz OC state added. If you don't believe it, here's the proof: https://github.com/EnyoDEV/bada.

Is it worth the lulz to keep allowing this guy to kang someone else's work, add a few lines of code, and pass it off as something new? What if you put a lot of time and effort into a ROM, kernel, theme, or mod and this guy did it to you? Would it be enough that he credits you after several other forum members call him out? Should this guy be reported again, or should we just leave it alone so we can keep the entertainment in XDA? Your thoughts?

Edit: for the record, I have not reported him for this latest kang - I'll leave that decision up to you :D

Has anyone seen John Connor?
[Fascinate General] sendan:
Eeh, I have reddit for lulz. If I was a mod he would be banned already. (but I'm not a mod and never will be...for good reason.
[Fascinate General] laureanop:
At this point, I doubt anybody installs anything he releases. He has been discredited enough and yes he should be expelled from xda after his blatant kang of KGB.

"the relentless pursuit of the perfect rom"
[Fascinate General] laureanop:
Yeah, but the lulz are becoming tired and repetitive.

"the relentless pursuit of the perfect rom"
[Fascinate General] laureanop:
And don't worry, we can still get tons of lulz without Enyo. There are plenty of noobs, stupid questions , misunderstandings, misinterpretations, and immaturity to keep the lulz going nonstop.

[Fascinate General] PhoenixPath:
Not to go all White Knight on your assess or anything, but...

Doesn't Comradesven's thread state something along the lines of, "don't you DARE give me credit for this", and say anyone is free to use anything he has done??

I enjoy trollin' Enyo as much as the next guy, but go after him for the outright *lie* of 'espresso protection' or any of the multitudes of other crap?

...and now back to the lulz.
[Fascinate General] nitsuj17:
yeah as long as posts source hes free to do whatever he wants in terms of forking/kanging/whatever for kernels

but the **** he makes up in terms of what the kernel does it what i enjoy personally

[Fascinate General] droidstyle:
while enyo allowed us to have lots of lulz over the past few weeks, I do think its time to move on. He is not learning from his mistakes and thats most likely because he is "11 yrs old". If this is true, well 11yr olds shouldnt be members on xda let alone "developing" anyway.
[Fascinate General] nitsuj17:
yeah i made the 11 year olds shouldnt be members argument back when that came to light and no one seemed to care, oh well
[Fascinate General] Hypnosis4U2NV:
I don't blame Enyo for what he is doing. I blame his parents for home schooling him and allowing the only contact to the outside world through a phone or computer with an Internet connection. He spends entirely too much time playing with his phone when he should be outside playing with people his age.

Enyo, put the phone and computer away, step outside your home and start enjoying life.

Get mad at me for this comment, its totally fine with me if you do. The mods really are needed and I wish they would step up. The fascinate is one of the busier parts of the forum and its full of posts that need removing. If they started doing that among warning offenders this would be a much smaller problem
[Fascinate General] skynet11:
They actually have been policing these threads - what we have now is actually a much smaller problem than what we'd have if they weren't. As many off-topic (to put it mildly) posts as there are now, we'd have 3X as many if they weren't active here. At least 2/4ths of the threads that have been closed would still be open and there would be at least 50,000 more troll posts :D

Very true. I am specifying the development forum. There are so many very nonrelevant and repeat posts its ridiculous. The sad part though is i am hypocritical and guilty of this myself
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sgravi2k:
I'm having HTC Nexus One running on 2.3.6. I tried to install Jabber from Cisco. First it showed up an error and then it installed. At end of second attempt, again it said there installer package has some problem. Now, it ate the 10MB and I can't find it to uninstall to claim the space.

Any suggestions are welcome.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sgravi2k:
All,

Have an update. I had a 20MB space left on phone. This installer used about 10 MB and wont show up to uninstall from phone. Ended up with 10 MB space.

Did not reboot the device, but after a while, I found that I'm back with 20 MB space. Hope it takes some time to uninstall and free up the used space. For now, I think I can call this issue resolved on its own.

Any comments/suggestions are still welcome, even in terms of posting such rookie level question :)

I know this has no relevance but I work at UPS and today saw two huge boxes of Kindle fires just made me laugh cause we handle a lot of single kindle boxes but this was the first time I saw a box like this each one had at least 200 kindle fires in it for a total of 400. I could not see if it was going to a residential address or commercial (pretty sure it was commercial) but made me laugh one person would order that many for them self.

[Nexus S Themes and Apps] AwesomeTurtle:
Using nothing more than Accurate Aperture Labs logo, GIMP, and just about all of my free time today, I have created a fresh take on Aperture Laboratories. Turtle tested, Turtle approved. Speed is set to 25, and part0-to-part1 transition is perfect.

Now with Scientific GIF Samples!

part0

part1

By 'Not-Quite-Done' I mean my To Do list is as follows:

1.) Make the animation faster and/or shorter because my phone is a zippy bastard and often starts up before part1 sees the light of day

2.) Add a loading loop at the top-right, identical to the loading circle in the top right corner in Portal 2 loading screens, only instead of the Portal stick figure sticking halfway out it'll be our old pal An Droid.

[Maybe] 3.) Make a separate boot animation dedicated to the great Cave Johnson.

I like the addition of orange. I'm a boot animation junkie and this one just got cooler.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] AwesomeTurtle:
I spent a lot of time flirting with the Blue/Orange idea. I might be doing a number of color schemes for this same animation, and I will be making two additional sets based around Cave Johnson and Wheatley.

Here's a set of general-purpose lockscreen wallpapers in the meantime:

Black background, orange logo

Black background, blue logo

Blue background, white logo

Orange background, black logo

[Nexus S Themes and Apps] Euphorie:
Looks great.

I could make some kind of soft glossy effect on the text.

Also i could make the colors little bit different. (brighter)

Orange looks somehow little bit rusty and blue is to dark imo :D

Maybe some kind of glow effect like this. xD

I hope to see more great work from you ;)
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] AwesomeTurtle:
Believe me, there are six thousand ideas coming up right now, and glowy text was one of them.

I'm also making another couple of animations of GLaDOS (from some awesome vector I found on DeviantArt) and Atlus/Peabody. I might even toss in Space Core somewhere!

Edit: Ultimately, I want the GLaDOS animation to be official-looking so that I can pitch it to Ezekeel as a default boot animation for his GLaDOS kernel.

Looks like I was able to trim out the fat after all. Here's a sample of my latest update (mind you, the animation doesn't run quite as fast as this GIF):

>>Link to the GIF that actually runs faster than the real product<<

Someone please append this to my prior post.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] D3_:
I love this!

Using it on my SGS2 with a sound from here which I converted to .wav
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] AwesomeTurtle:
Taking notes from the default CyanogenMod7 bootanimation, the frame doesn't have to be full 480x800; It simply centers whatever's there vertically, and since this particular bootanimation's black, it should blend with no issue. One quick update and it should be running like normal (I know some of you testers probably noticed that the initial animation is skippy at first. This will fix that).

Edit: Minor update, but it's done. Same link as in the OP.

Hello XDA-users!

Because i've got tired of the standard eclipse splash, i've modified it to a more decent / relevant one. It's just for the look / eye-candy but hey, i think it looks quite fine.

Its easy to install it:

1.) Download the image.

2.) Copy it to plugins\org.eclipse.platform_3.7.1.v201109091335\splash.bmp

For example: C:\android_eclipse\plugins\org.eclipse.platform_3.7.1.v201109091335\splash.bmp

Thats it!

Hi,

My usb port on my xperia broke previously and i had i repaired but now its broken again. Would it be possible to re solder a brand new usb port as the the guy at the phone shop says he might not be able to re solder it next time.

Any response is greatly appreciated.:D
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HeliumX10:
HI,

It is possible almost everytime :) but, MIGHT take very long time to resolder, if copper pads are took off the PCB. Therefore, it mustbe soldered back on other pins.

Anyway, it is possible.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hamid3301:
.

Thanks for your replay.

I know that the outer big pins are the ones for charging but are they inner small pins for data connectivity?
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HeliumX10:
Yes - outer are GND (-) and VCC (+) - inner D+ and D- (DATA). One pin is unused. Here is the pinout:
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hamid3301:
..

Thank you for your reply.

This was very useful and now i can out smart the phone guy when he says in can only charge meaning he hasn't soldered the inner one on.;)
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HeliumX10:
So hit Thanks pls ;)

If that guy was the technician, ha propably knew that. But there maid be a reason, why he didn`t soldered them - maybe it wasn`t possible due to damaged PCB...

Just guessing :)
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hamid3301:
..

I did get my xperia fixed once but it only charged and when ever i connected it to my computer it only charge and did not connect to the computer. Is there a solution for that?
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HeliumX10:
So your phone was repaired after damage? Am I right, that it wasn`t repaired by yourselve?

So, you could find out if data pins are soldered - download Terminal emulator

here.

Then open it and connect your phone with PC via USB cable. Once phone is connected on both sides, type "dmesg" and see output. There must be something like this:

<6>[23469.853208] *********** Charger Type: HOST PC

<6>[23469.853384] Charger Type: STD DOWNSTREAM PORT

<6>[23470.708433] msm_chg_usb_charger_connected

If charger type is DEDICATED CHARGER, data pins are not connected or not solderd properly.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hamid3301:
Thanks a lot.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HeliumX10:
It`s OK - you're welcome ;)
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] witchcraftz:
I've got a phone with a broken USB too. I've got a new USB port and was looking for some information on how to do the soldering. Thanks.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HeliumX10:
Hi, if you don`t have any experience with soldering (of anything) - Don`t do it, you may damage your phone permanently.

[Android General] srle:
I hope this post does not get too long and you bear with me...

This idea came to me recently - thinking about ICS and what the vendors are calling "legacy" devices. I even started a thread at qualcomm developer forum, asking them nicely to give us the needed binaries, or even better source code for the user space drivers. I really doubt that it will happen, but it does not cost much to try.

Anyway - here is the idea - instead of begging the vendors to release the source (or binaries, or unlock the bootloaders) lets give them an incentive to do so by introducing community (XDA) certified devices. We could come up with lets say 3 levels of community compliance for the devices - with grades:

A - the vendor has made it possible to unlock the bootloader of the device

A+ - the vendor has made binaries needed for compiling AOSP, Cyanogenmod and other open source projects for the device available and made the bootloader unlock-able

A++ - the vendor has released source code and binary drivers for all of the hardware components of the device, and made the bootloader unlock-able

A committee of recognized developers and community members (I am thinking guys like tytung, texasice, azrienoch, etc... - do not feel left out guys) - would receive sample devices from the manufacturers to test and certify the level of community compliance.

A special section of the XDA site would be set up showcasing the community certified devices, and ad space on the portal would be dedicated to showcase latest devices to recieve certification.

Heck, the community could even make money - by allowing (selling the right to) the vendor of the certified device to put an XDA certified device on the packaging or on the device itself (the money could be used to help support the website costs or fund development projects - bounties and such...)

It may sound like a lot work, but this way we could allow the community friendly vendors to get a chance to show their devices, and smaller vendors trying to ways to differentiate themselves could find a fast-track to the hearts of enthusiasts. The community members looking for a new device would make their minds easily by browsing the certified devices section.

I know I would participate in a program like this (Samsung if you are reading this I am willing to certify the N7000 right now - please PM me so I can send you my address:))
