[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ScreamingSkulls:
I'm not here to get myself in trouble and being as I am relatively new to the site I wanted to ask one question and make one comment.

Comment: Out of 104 replies, 52 people are using TDJ's ROM.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1681221

With that being said:

Question: Is it a common practice to remove such work without notice or an explanation? I know we are all human and emotions come into play and by all means I am not questioning the actions of any mod but maybe, based on the comment above, things should be handled better in the future. Just a suggestion.

Thank you for putting his stuff back up. I for one appreciate his work (amongst many others) and appreciate him standing up for what is right when we see people doing wrong. I've seen other devs insult his work (comparing roms) and not once have I seen him stoop to their levels. I for one would like to know why this happened and is anyone else treated like this? I hope there are no agendas or favortism on this board. Punish the ones who do wrong or steal, and not the hard workers. There's my rant and I know I'm not important enough to be responded to and don't expect it. Again thanks for placing his great work back on this forum

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] xUnreachablex:
It would appear that on XDA stealing is OK but calling people out for stealing is cause for removal of your work. TDJ wouldn't have been the first one to have his work or RD status removed, have you ever wondered about posters who have a very low post/thanks count yet have a intimate knowledge of XDA and the topics on which they are posting? They are the biggest game in town so they kind of have us but they aren't the only one.

I am in no way speaking for TDJ, my words are my own. Ban me if you wish, it wouldn't surprise me.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] suaverc118:
I totally agree. Who stole his rom?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] beezie916:
Unfortunately there is a reason people move their work to Rootzwiki and don't deal with XDA. I make no preference on any side of any matter. I know TDJ called out a so called Dev for using his work for their ROM and they seemingly did nothing before posting but not sure what other drama came out from that. I don't think anyone here would doubt TDJ's dev abilities and if the mods keep their actions of punishing the real devs and not the kangers then XDA will become a ghost town i predict.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] tigerz0202:
The people who suffer most are the end users, Devs don't have to do this and put their work here they are doing XDA a favor by doing so, it seems XDA needs a Mod overhaul . This has been the most pathetic excuse for a development section in any forum that I have ever been in and its not the DEVS 8 out of 10 times.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jasontx:
It's probably best if all disputes are handled through the mods or PM. Starting a war in any devs thread is frowned upon and you know how loyal crackflashers can be. You call a dev out and the people who enjoy their work are going to rage. This is just my view on what happened.

I would have done it the same way TDJ did so I understand why it went down like it did. I'm very glad he's sticking around, he's a huge asset to our community.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jwcurry83:
Thank you for restoring TDJ's threads... and also thank you to TDJ for all of your hard work in creating some of the best ROMS on XDA. Without TDJ's work I can safely say that I wouldn't even be posting on XDA right now... keep up the great job.

And thanks again for BETA 07... I would post in the relevant thread but I don't have permissions to do so yet ;)

Hi,

I'm using Apex Launcher. It seems that it's the same stock Launcher but a bit better.

I'm wondering if Apex author took source code and enchanced it or he made Apex from zero?

Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nxt:
Nova Launcher is better

Galaxy Nexus GSM
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bilalakhtar:
Hi there,

Yes, the stock launcher is open source. The source resides inside a folder in the AOSP repository. I remember looking at it when I built AOSP for the first time.

That said, it's highly likely the Apex dev started from stock as a base, in fact we're nearly sure he did that, since that's the best way to mimic stock yet add some nice tweaks.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] T-Keith:
I would say most third party launchers are based on the stock launcher. Adw is also open source, so they could pull from that as well.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tonker83:
Thanks for sharing but that's not what he asked. Try to answer questions and not **** up threads with this crap.

I would assume it's open since it's apart of stock and that's open source
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RogerPodacter:
Yes the launcher is open, that's what nova and apex built off of. Same with the browser. Ics+ browser is the stock browser with enhancements.

This type of mods are my single favorite thing about android and nexus phones. Its open to build upon with whatever options you'd want to add, built just as if it came from Google like that (given the dev is good).

Please, someone who knows tell us something related on how the 3.0.8 kernel would be worth uprgrading, more useful or helpful for ICS. If we have enough good reasons, we can start a petition @ www.change.org

Let us know. The only thing that I've heard of is that it'll improve deep sleep.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] darkerm:
I also heard that new kernel has improved deep Sleep. Hope someone port it to NEO ^_^
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] ThilinaC:
Give me a one good reason now why would sony listen to this petition and upgrade 2011 series more(yeah I am happy & grateful that we got 4.0.4,not all the companies were generous to upgrade their whole 2011 lineup like Sony did) when they got 2012 models to develop & upgrade ?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] mpiekp:
And some manufacturers, shaming none <here'slookingatyoumoto> didn't even give gb to similar spec devices <defy original>, at least Sony is dev friendly, the hardware is common stuff and we have sources of camera and radio, and unlocked bootloader.

I think we should thank Sony for bringing ICS to 2011 xperia range..atleast they keep the word..!

Other manufactures don't even think about that..so we should be thankful..!

Thank You Sony..:)

There will be a way to port 3.0.8 kernel to our devices..we have great developers so lets wait patiently..!

Cheers
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] leajian:
Give me one good reason of why 2011 line is not worth upgrating. Don't forget that you hold in your hands a powerful computer which always can be better.

Yeah, I am very greatful too, I am just asking there why the 3 kernel is better than this or if we would have any benefits of upgrading. I am not asking whether they'll listen to us or not. XDA is a very big and powerful community. We (in some cases) represent the advanced users of their products. For me, if we have good reasons and Sony listens to us. I'll appreciate Sony very seriously.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] leajian:
Sorry for double post, but I s*ck at multiquote on phone. I replied to mpiekp in his quote. :-P
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] ThilinaC:
Simple our phones are getting old now,Sony corporation is a business not a non profit organization mate.In xda dev's make stuff at their own free time & most are non profit too.

All comes to dollar bills mate,besides now 2011 series is getting replaced little by little with 2012 series.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Derzis:
ST-Ericsson advertised their NovaThor U8500 (that is running on Xperia 2012 line) with ICS and kernel 3.0.8

i think there is a big chance that the Xperia 2012 phones will get ICS with kernel 3.0.8

Xperia 2011 are old news, they got ICS 4.0.4 so i don`t think Sony will update them further

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CRewmDBkR8U
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] leajian:
Indeed, it's not a non profit, but since they have the 3.0.8 kernel ready for some devices, it won't be pain for sony to use it for the 2011 line, I mean they are pro developers there with sources, equipment, it'll be a piece of cake for them to port.

Also they officially replied that they won't be upgrading, I saw it on sony's official blog. Nobody here said anything about this kernel though, if it is worth upgrading. Only pesimistic comments that this is impossible to happen. :-P
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] tinyXperia:
@devs: How hard is it to port a kernel from other Snapdragon s2 devices?

Via Tapatalk 2 on MIUI V4
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] leajian:
No no no no no no! WAIT!!!!! :banghead:

That's just stupid!!!!! Why? Because the reasons are stupid and in fact the only reason is deep sleep. No offence, but I started this thread to gather info for that kernel and get worth reasons before starting a petition. Therefore, please remove it, before Sony starts laughing at us! Please... :)

EDIT: I found some intresting sites and I'll try to port 3.3.7 kernel if possible. Well we'll see if it is worth of it. If not atleast I'll gain some super useful knowledge.

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] leajian:
I asked some devs like mikegapinski and nobodyAtall and they told me we need SEMC patches for any other kernel above 2.6.32 (this means it's not easy for Sony too), only the last number can be upgraded like 2.6.32.50 as Polish Team's kernel.

Still waiting reply to know the advantages of 3.0.8 kernel, since nobody knows here. Even though I think a changelog is available @ kernel.org.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Galileo:
Sorry to dissapoint you Shadow.... im from the arc thread, and according to FXP who is in charge of the cm development for the 2011 line up it will take aproximately 6 months to port the 3.0 kernel.... and besides Sony promised us 18 months of upgrades, Jelly bean was included in that, when (fake) rumors came that the facebook representative from sony uk said the 2011 line up wouldnt get jelly bean... they said it wasnt true, and now they say the wont update us? seems like they were toying with us, the only reason they actually gave us ics ( a really ****ty one with no much improvement from the gb sony rom) was because they were being presured by the 18 months of upgrades statement.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] marcusasdrubal:
Yesterday a moderator from Sony team answered me at the official forum. About the Kernel 3.x

"Platform decisions made out of a complex number of parameters, involving things such as performance, price, component availability, timing etc.

When it comes to the kernel, we did actually investigate to release the 2011 products on a new kernel, but we found out it would have delayed the much desired SW releases since it takes time to trim a kernel to a stable state. We have also done a lot of patches to the kernel that we would need to migrate and that would have delayed the SW upgrades even more. It was simply a prioritization decision. For the new 2012 products we use a new kernel.

For more information and further questions regarding these things, please head over to our developer pages at http://developer.sonymobile.com/ ."

I believe someone could keep this post up, this moderator seems to be likely to give answers or attending plees. Raise here and peharps Sony could helps us.

So, curious... has anyone who claims finding that golden ticket in the Wonka bar of the new leaked ICS update passed that update file along to someone who can actually pick it apart to see if these are legit, or are we dealing with a bunch of trolls here?

*Mod, feel free to move this if needed. Thanks.
[Motorola Atrix 2] jimbridgman:
Look here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1683893

Several of my dev counterparts and I have looked this one over extensively. It is legit, but so far ONLY for the Chinese release, and Middle East Aisia phones. There is still no sign of the US AT&T or any other international versions yet.
[Motorola Atrix 2] RowanOak:
Yes, there are legitimate leaks of ICS for ME865 and non-AT&T MB865. See these threads:

Pretty much everyone here who's a dev or wants to be one at some point are taking a look at these.
[Motorola Atrix 2] Apex:
So, are these updates being found via Cheesecake or do the lucky ducks in China (or wherever) not divulge where they stumbled upon it?

Also, I've been checking Cheesecake for a couple of weeks now, but occasionally I'll get a "Connection Failed" window that wants me to select from three different choices... is that right or am I not doing something right?

Thanks in advance for your responses.
[Motorola Atrix 2] MagicXB:
Most likely being leaked from Cheesecake, unless they know someone who works inside at Motorola.

As for the connection failed window, whenever I get that window I simply restart my phone and the message will not show up again for a while. That message shows up I believe if you overload their servers by trying to connect too many times in a given time period.
[Motorola Atrix 2] Apex:
Okay, good to know .I'll try a reboot next time I see that window pop up. Glad to know I'm not going about this wrong -don't want to lessen my already slim-to-none chance at getting the ICS update! lol
[Motorola Atrix 2] prbassplayer:
Please post in the correct forum. Development forum is not meant to make random inquiries. If you didn't make it it does not merit a new forum in development section. Also this has been asked before so please search before making a new thread. /moved to General.

Cheers
[Motorola Atrix 2] jimbridgman:
Please DON'T install any of these pre-release updates!

They really are not meant for "normal" use.

You are best to wait for one of us devs to create a stable ROM out of these updates for everyone to flash. Either that or wait about 2 more weeks and Motorola will release the real deal through the proper OTA channels. When we had the 2.3.6 leaks, it was about 2-3 weeks before the "Official" OTA came out.

If you flash this it has the potential to lock your phone down even more than it already is, that or make a brick out of it.

If you find an update the best thing to do is to upload it someplace like say dropbox... then post a post in the General section with the link to it, asking us devs to look it over.

If you don't have a dropbox space, see my signature, it is 100% free for 2.5GB of space, and if you refer people you get more free space.
[Motorola Atrix 2] alteredlikeness:
"Connection Failed" just means that that server is down.. choose "Skip setup", switch servers and try again... no need to reboot.
[Motorola Atrix 2] Apex:
My apologies prbassplayer, I thought that maybe this was out of step for this part of the forum -wasn't entirely sure. Noted and understood. :o
[Motorola Atrix 2] Apex:
Gotcha, Jim. I have a dropbox account, but don't figure I'd be lucky enough to score the first ICS update for US and/or AT&T. At any rate, I'll keep on truckin' along just to help out... :)
[Motorola Atrix 2] jimbridgman:
You never know. I just hope that we hit these servers so much that we keep them pretty unusable, and MOTO gets so annoyed that they speed it up and get the stable version out faster. :D
[Motorola Atrix 2] Apex:
Where do these servers come from, are they official Moto servers?:confused:
[Motorola Atrix 2] Apex:
We can only hope! What differences will 4.0 have over our now 2.3.6 -why is this so sought after? (N00B question) :o

EDIT: Other than that which I have seen around the forum, being that the UI is different among other (seemingly indifferent) differences... at least to my untrained brain.
