superb article. thanks for the great post. something needed to be said!i would imagine that with 4,000,000+ users were gonna have trolls, so i hope the trolls migrate to your post
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Brau0303:
Thank You!

There is yet hope, Also as stated by the OP, We all did agree to treating people with respect. This is a huge community with all levels of users from Devs and folks that build awesome things to others just starting out with their 1st smartphone (Simple rule, think before you post). This device line could become great. Please let's all do what we can to help this along.

Cheers

Excellent post, I appreciate the time you took to write it, I wish reading it were a requirement of joining the XDA site. I've been flashing roms since I had an HTC Touch Diamond. I confess to being a flashaholic and my worst fear is to lose access to XDA and it's excellent developers because of the rude and immature members that I see regularly. So many don't bother to read and feel they are entitled to the work that the devs do for free.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] HackitZ:
All I can say is this is awesome, nice to see someone taking the time to help the vivid dev section.

I so miss the help and work by Pirateghost:D and Wild Child:D, and whom ever else was contributing.

While i left for only 2 weeks to setup another phone to use, i still have my raider ready and free to help debug and test as needed. Please don't allow a few bad apples to ruin it for the rest of us.

And if I may, maybe we as xda members can share in the task of keeping the forum in check.

EX: see an inappropriate post, flag it for a moderator to address it.

As for GSLEON3, thanks for taking the time to address the forum. hats off to you. :)
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] pcdebol:
Great post. If I ever get time I was thinking about learning to cook some ROM's I do other dev work and it look's like it might be fun to play with. After seeing stuff people put on here this sure isn't a place I would start.

If anyone is doing dev work the only thing you should have to say to them is thank you. Even if you brick your phone. It's not their fault you didn't follow instructions or the carrier may have made a change in the device since they put their work out there for you to use. Research it before you do it and it will greatly reduce the chance of failure.

It's just like a few other hobbies I have if you want to play you better be willing to pay. Trust me a bricked cell phone is cheap compared to an exploded turbo.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] DallasJones:
Somebody had to say this, thank you. I'd love to see our developers back. Almost all of the community appreciates their hard work, it's just a small percentage that ruins it for everyone.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] DutchDanny:
I did miss all that happend here, and think i'm glad I did.

I'm the "Lead developer" of BinDroid and as GSLEON3 did say, I don't do this alone.

I have a few other devs and themers & testers to make it all complete.

The BinDroid team is around 20 people from all over the Globe.

cyber_pete is my US partner dev, and working on your ICS build, and I help where needed.

We almost done.. And glad to inform you all that BinDroid is here to stay on Vivid.

This weekend the Sensation XE ROM is released, and soon after that, you will join the part.

So keep those heads UP and enjoy what is given to you by people who enjoy making this.

We do this for our own pleasure, and like to see you enjoy it to ;)

Follow up

to follow up on my previous post (page 2)

I ended up selling back the phone i got, couldn't deal with a device not running htc sense regardless of how much i loved the actual phone. so in a way Wild Child kinda had a hand in this so i decided to take the plunge and tried out his sense 3.5 rom and like i thought, it's exactly what i wanted so i'm sticking with it, i'll be here, i'm not crazy about ICS or sense 3.6 and up so i might stick with this rom for now, but doesn't mean i wont see something i wana play around with, after all that's what titanium backup and nandroid are for :)
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Infinimint:
Hahaha I've been waiting for GSLEON3 to take over forever :D

Great, Fair Guy, will be a Great Mod (again).

As for the devs, whatever's done is done. There's no point in holding grudges. Turn the cheek, and put it in the past. Don't make regrettable decisions like this. Is it better to do nothing and succeed or do something and stumble?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] lostsoul3471:
1st and foremost:

Thank you devs, all of you, for all of your progress and support. Please, please, pretty-please come back! The Vivid is an awesome device and well worth putting through it's paces with ICS and Jelly Bean when it comes out. XDA is the place to come for all of it. The site hits the news ALOT when it comes to getting stuff in our grubby paws long before the carriers give their blessings. Because of that, expect traffic from every type of person that is capable of clutching a phone to come here, be it a tech-god(dess) or a complete ludite. We all need patience and respect everyone. Negative comments do nothing, squat, zilch in making you happy.

I came from the Nexus One and even there, there's some errant idiot posts and 99.9% got ignored because no time is even worth spending in making a reply. The N1's been around for 2+ years now and it was a niche product for the most part but it drove development. I picked the Vivid because without having to go to Samsung, this is a great phone with the potential of having a good long life. We're on the ground floor, it's only a few months old, and there are going to be hiccups along the way.

Admittedly, I've been running unlocked, rooted but stock standard since I got the Vivid. I'm still checking to see if I have a pulse as I used to flash a new build every couple weeks on the N1. That tells you that even with the bloat (that's been frozen) stock is still very good. But I want ICS. The poo hit the fan shortly after that and then everything was shuttered. It was disappointing and frankly stunning that it happened like that. We can do better than that. I know that I'm always supportive and will let the devs know if anything is amiss unless someone beat me too it--which happens more than not. 20 posts of the same thing isn't going to help. We're almost there. We're almost at the point where we can easily have a daily-use build that will be stable enough for the average Joe.

GSLeon, you couldn't do a better job of spelling it all out if you had team of speech writers on staff. And thanks for coming back!
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] alwayslearning:
way to go DutchDanny; I am so glad to have your team helping on such a great phone :D
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] moe3754:
I am so glad to see that you are here, your roms were permanent on my Inspire 4g and will be again on my Vivid when I take delivery, I cannot wait to see and use your great work again, Thank you for all that you do Danny!!!!:D
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] hv6478:
I undoubtedly missed all of that commotion and I'm glad I did. It's simple: use it only if you have educated yourself about it, and if you haven't then don't complain about it, because if you had educated yourself, you wouldn't have a reason to complain.

Not to mention even if it wasn't a group of developers, why would you be disrespectful of anyone, especially when they're providing you a service and product, for FREE nonetheless!? Unbelievable.

On behalf of the honest and caring people here on XDA, I want to apologize to all that have been talked down to, rudely criticized or disrespected in any way, especially in regards to all the hard work they've done and continue to do. I really hope to see as many devs come back as we have room for, I mean without all of them we wouldn't even be here. XDA may not have even existed.

I'm not even a Vivid user, I have a Sensation. I'm looking to swap up to a Raider though (Canadian/North American name I guess?) and would love to see as much development for it as the Sensation has now. Hopefully we can help make that a reality. Thanks to the OP as well, hopefully your time and efforts will be worthwhile!

Edit: moe3754 and subsequently the BinDroid team, it's great to have you guys and we look forward to your work! Thank you!
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] gdgeorge:
+1!

Thanks.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] slapdaddy:
I'm just coming over here from the Inspire section - getting a Vivid next week if all goes well. I've been coming to xda for years as a lurker, and registered quite some time ago. There has always been one thing that has been a major defining characteristic of this site - community.

I wholeheartedly agree with the mods decisions to generously throw down the banhammer when deemed even remotely appropriate so that we can curb the @#$% that is now plaguing this community.

We need devs here and we need them badly, very badly. It may be worthwhile to note that many Inspire owners may very well begin switching to the Vivid, as I am. So hopefully, more devs from that section make their way over here as time progresses....I hope. :)
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] HopelesRomantc91:
Wow, I had no clue what was going on here. I love my Vivid now that I have ICS on it, but there are still things I'd love to change about it, and I'll never get that chance without dev help. I'd like to think I'm pretty grateful in general, and I'd love for this forum to become great, because this phone is without a doubt one of the most powerful phones on the market, and I'd love to see what the devs here can do with it.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] cannothas:
Well Written

Look, I know I'm a noob user, and my thanks meter is zero. I am not able to contribute much to this, and I'll spare you all the reasons. I cannot agree more with this "book", article, thing, because I have been VERY EXCITEDLY following the CM9 progress since I got the phone in January. I have not seen anything from thecubed or pirateghost in relation to the vivid for about the last month or more, and that started when bickering and backstabbing flew off the handle in the dev thread for the CM9 Teaser. I hope they come back, along with any other devs who have left due to "family feuding."

I very much dislike sense, and still cannot wait to see CM9 on this phone.

About the only thing I know, besides how to put CM on my phone, is that the more devs we have working on it, the sooner we can all have "awesomeness"!

To all who have been, and are currently, working on developing on this phone, a huge "Thank You" because you make my phone work better!
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] technicalvampire:
Thank you DutchDanny Loved your Inspire 4G Rom

Thank you GSLEON3 This Forum has needed that for sometime now. I cant wait to see the new ROMS that can be made for the Vivid.

[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] _Allan_:
My Raider (vivid/holiday) is crying for love ... and I come to XDA not for the other members (Sorry!) but for the second part of the sites name: developers (I feel almost a Balmer urge to scream it dozens of times... with bit pit stains on my shirt...)

THAT digression being said ... I haven't been around much, because when I do come here, I see crying, whining, *****ing, moaning, etc and insults to dev's.

I'm hoping the Dev's will come back, and I we can get help with my our sweet device.

Stuck for on this for 3 days. Please help

Hi all,

I've searched the web and on this site but haven't seen this problem anywhere. I've tried a gazzilian things to no avail, that's why I'm posting to this great site and members as a last resort.

I'm a noob who learned to root but am not a flasher. I've unlocked and rooted many phones and now my HTC Raider. I bought it outright from Rogers, then unlocked and rooted it. 3 days ago I was installing a sound performance app (DPS) I think and it was taking forever so I abandoned it. Since then here is a list of issues.

Now the unit has relocked by itself.

Can't boot up, freezes on white HTC logo.

I can boot into HBoot but can't do anything there..recovery, factory reset, etc.., it returns to HBoot???

When I plug into the charger (when it's off) it automatically turns on into Hboot where I can't do anything anyway???

My PC doesn't recognize any SD cards, ried formatting them also, internal or external, so I can't reflash any Zips

I've tried many root tools I've found, nothing works. I'm now trying Hasoon2000's HTC Vivid All-In-One-Kit and still can't get anywhere.

Can anyone please help? I'm a total loss on this one.:(
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] AndroidNomad:
My goodness, what's all this about???
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] DutchDanny:
Try to relock your bootloader in fastboot.

CMD: fastboot oem lock

and then try to flash a HTC RUU
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] AndroidNomad:
Thanx, after more research, I did it and worked. Thanx again:)

Oh and BTW, I have difficulties finding non branded (no bloatware) RUU's. Could you perhaps point me in the right direction?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] chris.l.naish:
DutchDanny - love your team's Inspire/DHD ROM. Any update on the Vivid ROM? :)
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] DutchDanny:
As my Vivid dev is no longer on Vivid, I can't get the rom done by my self.

So I don't think I can support the device on my own.

I would need an other dev to work with, as the Vivid is an ass to work on.

Send via my BinDroid XTC One X
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Kev_cr:
I'm new to vivid forum, probably getting one by this weekend... think this post is something that should be respected in all this site, why? simple... I'm a developer attempt (or as it must be written, my english is not that good) and not a los of people are here to help as in other sites, and not many users respect devs work, they just look like... I don't know, maybe "you're responsability is to bring us new ROMs" and think it's not that way... it's not even about fame or money, no one will get rich because of building a ROM, or tweaking a status bar... but putting all devs toghether, helping each other, would be the perfect way of improving our work, why? simple, you'll always learn from other people, and there, it doesn't matter how many posts they have, how many devices they have or how many ROMs they've cooked... anyway, wrote too much.

Hope I can get my vivid by this weekend, and start learning from you guys, and contributiong to this forum.

I tried to create post about using whatsapp on flyer. Problems, questions and (hopefully) solutions can be found here.

#Empty Whatsapp Contact list

I tried to figure out getting Whatsapp working on my flyer,

1. Using stock GB, which give me result device not recognized.

2. After I upgrade to costum HC, it let me to register whatsapp to their server.

>the problem is, I was not able to chat with anyone in my contact list.

Because the contacts in Whatsapp are just plain empty.

Solution:

Go to the setting > more > show all contacts(checked)

Whatsapp : 2.7.4106

HC : LeeDroid 4.1.0
