#1 Chad had source posted... kinda hidden in his posts, but it was there. - ask OTHER users besides me.. Datguy_n_Disguy posted somewhere that he has seen links to source code.

#2 other developers were contacted before being banned over GPL and given 5 days to explain, comply,resolve, etc... chad NEVER received a warning or infraction for GPL

FAIRNESS: why doesnt xda perma-ban EVERYONE who violates GPL - showp1984 himself was given several months to become compliant... yet ragged on Chad over complaince... a few others that were reported, and nothing done: anyrl (RECENT ICS kernel, but no repo for it...) , sebastianfm - changelog has not matched source for several builds.

The issue is a name such as "toast" or who ever is more important that the actual facts. toast and his gang violated SEVERAL rules in SEVERAL threads -- why is that ok??? - wait..his name is toast, that makes it all ok... and most of the community will back him up because his his history on XDA, and is willing to over look the CURRENT facts

The stock 3.0 is from the leak. Everything works. THis is the one I use. Im 1.4 s-off.

I don't know the differences between the two Anthrax ones. I had rls4 installed for a little while and cant really remember what worked and did not work. I never installed the Anthrax htc leak. The tread is closed that had the changelogs in the OP but here is the link. THey are a wip.

You will just have to test them and see which works best for you.
[HTC EVO 3D] jerdog:
Ok - let's end this right here and now. Said "source" was actually the HTC source itself - not his work. That's not GPL compliant. In addition his work was not in fact original and not bound by any other legal license. He was asked - MANY times - to adhere to the GPL and he willfully ignored those requests.

That is the issue here. Now stay on topic.

then how was it people like dodava pulled commits from it, and used it to help w/ their kernels? read what dodava himself said below:

how is it leedroid has some audio fixes in his gsm kernel w/ chads name next to them??

and what moderations on xda requested gpl compliance, and where? Im chads neighbor and sometimes chill @ his house, and he NEVER said anything about xda moderator or admin staff having GPL issues w/ his work.

[HTC EVO 3D] mreyesems:
yeah i kinda noticed deck is anti-chad.. that's crazy considering each one of them have their strongpoints.. i guess neither of their strong points is teamwork loll.. deck is an awesome dev but not as peoplefriendly.. chad is also an awesome dev and is very people friendly.. EDIT: chad had posted before about him having source up.. so idk...

most of their issues lie on deck's comments that chad doesn't share source.. and according to chad, NDA's pretty much shut all that down..

considering Android is supposed to be opensource.. it sucks that all this is going on..

i just know, every time i hit up chad, he responds. i hit up deck, i end up getting blocked by some fan boy on IRC not too kind about me asking him for advice.. so idk anymore.. i came from iphone to android with the hopes that the dev community wouldn't be as narrowminded and feisty but yet, here we are, total pettiness.. i love my evo 3d, love the work these devs are doing so far.. deck, chad, freeza, toast, newt... the list goes on.. but man,

can't we all just get along?? i mean, kum ba ya my lord, kum ba ya....
[HTC EVO 3D] Eternity-3D:
thats source was not complete, it was minus beats.. but everything else was in there.

toast said beats isnt real - so thats all the moderation team on xda needs as proof is toast's word.

By the way in IRC, toast said the audio improvement isnt there, and you are all experience placebo

Beats or no beats, chads kernels sound so good to the point where I can't use a normal kernel because it's such a degradation of sound quality and volume.

oh,see i never made any mention regarding beats. i'm personally not much a fan of beats as it is.. xloud and bravia engine have worked just fine for me on my phone or w/e roms so far..

even still, chad's source isn't only about beats.. not just toast but even chad said beats isn't much.. i just think it's messed up that he got screwed over after all his recent work incl. downgrading the vm firmware, new knernels compiled/adding onto htc source.. either way, both devs are good at what they do.. there just isnt much sharing or caring as it should be on this site...

[HTC EVO 3D] LiquidSolstice:
I've never once before questioned the way XDA was run. I stood by Iron First and I stood by the idea that this place is not a democracy. However, this site, the same site I remember eagerly hunting for themed cab files of Sense back when it was called Manilla and TouchFLO, is starting to not make all that much sense to me anymore.

This is getting absolutely !@#$ing ridiculous. There needs to be some sort of thread dedicated to what's going on. If you (being the XDA Staff) would like this situation to go away (and I would as well), there has to be some communication.

We as users do not want to support anyone breaking rules. We of course would prefer to abide by them.

But I (speaking only for myself here) have noticed the only consistent thing that is being ignored by everyone is showp's situation as well as several other devs who seem to be treated differently.

I was also under the impression that XDA had granted Chad some sort of "immunity" from the countless amount of abuse that has been hurled at him, either to his face or cowardly through his email.

If possible, if one of the moderators can make a longer post in a thread of it's own (and lock it) explaining fully what the issue is, we can all learn from it. That's all I'm saying, there's just so much confusion and "support" coming from both sides.

Both sides are "supported" by users only because of the quality of their kernels and work, not whether or not they were upholding the GPL. Chad.goodman has been a huge, HUGE part of the Evo 3D community, and I think if you're going to remove such a large component of the community, this sort of backlash will happen unless you help people understand why.
[HTC EVO 3D] mreyesems:
+1
[HTC EVO 3D] lyon21:
Also, I could have sworn that I read somewhere that, according to GPL, if CHAD created something HIMSELF, he does NOT have to post source to it since it was never licensed under GPL to begin with. I could be wrong. Someone correct me if I am. Also, why are we worried more about a developer here not having a complete source than we are about HTC having a complete source. Also, the GPL does not state anywhere about a given time that someone has to release source after something is posted. If the GPL is going to be enforced on XDA, ENFORCE THE WHOLE DAMN THING! Source is supposed to be posted when the work is posted. Why do we have to keep dealing with the same B.S.? If this much effort was put into making HTC and others comply with GPL, we would probably have source code the day that they update. Or if the people starting this decided to put this much effort into learning how to do it themselves, they would know how to do it already and not need his source.

Edit: LiquidSolstice said it perfectly. The only thing that I do not agree with is locking the thread. Leave it open. Let the community discuss it there instead of everywhere else. The discussions won't stop. At least have a place for the discussion.

[HTC EVO 3D] Eternity-3D:
90% of the developers on XDA dont 100% comply with GPL

sense itself is closed source, as is beats

htc does not release source within required guidelines

the same people who report chad for gpl compliance issues are not 100% compliant themselves - why doesnt XDA perma-ban these people?

the fact is this: toast told XDA admins beats isnt real in the kernel, so xda banned Chad for not posting source

TOASTCFG = final say in anything regarding kernels.
[HTC EVO 3D] JPH1121:
I recall reading a post by chad that was thanked by toast where chad appeared to be supporting toast. Which of us has our facts misconstrued?
[HTC EVO 3D] lyon21:
Exactly what I mean. If XDA is going to force GPL compliance, force EVERY SINGLE THING to be GPL compliant. Don't pick and choose which rules are "cool" to follow. The GPL doesn't say "Hey. Here are our rules but you don't have to follow every one of them. Feel free to choose which ones you would like to follow and which ones you feel others should follow." ALL of the rules are supposed to be followed by EVERY single person. IT IS COMPLETE B.S.!
[HTC EVO 3D] skw5115:
I believe chad was being sarcastic in saying he expects toast to thank his farewell post and that toast can now receive the attention and praise (as one of the best kernel devs) that chad was and toast did so

I can not connect to data while roaming. Is this a known bug?

1.5 hboot 2.17

Ok so I, like many of you guys, has had trouble with boot loop when flashing this ROM. Apparently it doesn't seem to like 1.5. I've already tried downgrading...couldn't brick my phone, it would always through me back to bootloader.

This is what I did to get Newts One S rom to boot.

Relocked bootloader

flashed 2.17 RUU

once flashed did a ##786# reset (needs SPC)

unlocked bootloader via htcdev

flashed recovery (not ext4 but I'm sure it will work anyway)

formatted data/factory rest, dalvik, and cache

wiped with superwipe

flashed RC1

extracted boot.img from RC1 and flashed it via fastboot

flashed Chad's (**old woman voice**God bless his soul) htcleak kernel

booted RC1

returned to recovery to wipe w/superwipe and factorydata,ect...

flashed RC2 + 2.1 patch

boot.img via fastboot

Chad's htc leak kernel

enjoyed an awesome ROM

problems I'm facing now:

battery drains quicker than liquid-plumr

won't charge when on

hopefully i'll find something to make all this work
