AFAIK, Team Chopsticks are the only ones actually submitting patches to CM (they are the official maintainers for our devices). All of the other posts are either nightlies being built by someone else, or someone else adding little tweaks/themes. IMHO, you will be best off running the Alpha builds that Team Chopsticks posts or using the official nightlies from get.cm. It's unlikely, but be aware that nightlies might occasionally break.

Scott had locked both of his threads thanks to a few xda members who had problems, and decided to take it out on him.

I think those people who blamed him should apologize, instead of being selfish and ruining for us all.

I never used any of Scott's work before but I've heard he turned out some pretty kickass stuff.

When people ignore mods telling them to knock it off, you know it's not going to end well.

Maybe a timeout for a day or two will let cooler heads prevail in the end.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] kleeman7:
I understand, if I was in Scott's position I would probably do the same. I just thinks it's funny how things clearly say what to do, and someone still messes it up.

I just sucks that people have to take it so far as to blame the dev for not doing something. When it for one flashing any thing has always been at your own risk, and two getting pissed off, and posting a nasty thread instead of just asking for help politely.

I'm pretty sure he is on his rom forums, maybe, just maybe if those people apologize, and we all ask nicely he may come back.

His work is great, I mean the s3 forums are donating to get him a phone. That alone should say something.

Now we are down to, we'll one sense rom that is kept up. And our aosp roms which can't progress much more without source.

I agree... Ban them, god I hope Scott comes back, one of the only reasons to keep this phone. I was worried and stated that this could happen, I saw it in the Vivid thread.

I hope he reads this and realizes that there are way more that appreciate his work more then complain about it. If he did leave I can't say I blame him, just hope it doesn't happen

So the little whiney, self-entitled b!tches of xda strike again. Seriously, f*ck all of you little twerps that posted anything disrespectful to Scott. He's amazing, and makes an amazing ROM and you should all be ashamed of yourselves for driving him away. I swear to god, I hate what xda has become. there are only a select few that put in any hard work for the rest to reap the benefits of, and there are always a sh!t ton of brats who think that they paid for these ROMs when they paid for their phones. It doesn't work that way, you sniveling little d!ckheads. These devs don't work for the manufacturers, the carriers, or xda- they do it FOR FREE, FOR US, because they kick ass, and they deserve nothing but respect from ALL OF US. Seriously, I am issuing a blanket F*CK YOU to every douche on xda who ever talked sh!t to or about any dev here.

I am going to go through his threads and anyone I see talking any sh!t to or about Scott is from here on out permanently banned from receiving ANY of my case giveaways.

Gunny, kleeman, rohan, or any of the other forum regulars that I interact with on a regular basis, if you would be so kind as to help point out who the offenders are it would be greatly appreciated.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] kleeman7:
Sad thing is like at least 4 people had the same issue, and it's all from lack of reading.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't Scott state a long time ago like cleanrom 2.1 days that CWM caused issues? And Scott also said he loved CWM and hated to switch from it?

Sent from my HTC One X
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] _MetalHead_:
Yep, back when the SD card wiping issues first started happening he told everyone not to use CWM and to use TWRP instead. Buuuut people don't want to do any actual reading so it becomes Scott's fault for not showing up at their doorstep and holding their hand for them when they flash his ROMs, cross the street, take a piss, what have you. Bottom line is if you flash, you assume ALL risk. It's your own damn fault for not reading. Even if you're flashing an updated version of the ROM you've been running for months, ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS read the entire OP for changelog, flash instructions, etc. The moron in question said that it's because his xda app didn't put the warning in red but bottom line is it was still there. Had he READ THE ENTIRE OP, he would have seen the warning whether it was red, green, blue or purple with pink polka dots. His own damn fault, and at this point I'm glad his phone got eff'd up. Serves him right.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] bTrizzy:
I don't follow the dev thread on a daily basis, I just read the OP for updates and only found out about the CWM issue today.

Anywho, I flashed 4.1 DE with CWM a 2 days ago with no problem.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] BarryH_GEG:
It's been a victim of its own success. By being the lead source when a device has issues (Prime GPS expose, Teg3 One X Wi-Fi issues, Xperia S yellow display) it's frequently in the press. Because it's cross-linked on so many media sites it gets pushed up in Google's search rankings when the general populous searches for “

insert name of device

problems.” Because of all this the number of non-technically inclined (or even interested) members has grown off the charts. The Teg3 One X forum became basically useless because of all the neophyte members with 10 posts and join dates of this month *****ing. We used to talk about getting more from our devices. Now we talk about how unhappy people are with: 1) Android, 2) ICS, 3) HTC, 4) the One X, and, 5) even each other. If I hear one more useless narcissistic ***** or complaint I'm going to explode.

How's this for a thread title:

"Starting to get really pissed off at this phone-might return unless I can get answers"

The mod locked it, but seriously? Do XDA members owe self-indulgent idiots "answers?"

Technically, these types of people aren't violating the TOU for the site so the mods can't always intervene. A bunch of us more senior members re-took control of the Teg3 One X forum by beating back their useless and repetitive posts. I'm not suggesting anarchy, but challenging people that are obviously not interested in the general benefit of the forum (and interested in only themselves) can be an effective means of self-help.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] TheLostBuddha:
Been here since the beginning of Clean Rom and that was one of the very first things he warned about being a possible issue when flashing via cwm. I'm a cwm guy, bought and paid for, but if a dev says to avoid and I like his Rom... You just listen to your devs. Easy enough.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] kleeman7:
This made me lol, polka dot, and got served. Also my xda mobile app, and Tapatalk show it in red, not that it needed to. Just saying.

I also think it funny how he said Scott coded it not to work in cwm. I'm sure of that was his goal a lot of our phones would be bricks.

I like the pissed off answers thread we all said return the device and took it way off topic. This is how we should handle all threads like that, imo, lol.

IMHO both of them over-reacted.

this is public forum you expect few ppl to be a *****.. but you can easily ignore it and compare it to the ppl who appreciate it aswell.

like for example scott said he had 10 thousands of downloads of the rom and if 10 or so ppl report an error .. there is clearly something wrong with them.

same applies here.. if 10 thousands like your rom and if 10 or so don't.. . there is clearly something wrong with them.

Total over-reaction.

i have been in this forum for more then 5 years... this is such common scenerio.

And trust me things will just move on. :)

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] BarryH_GEG:
Whatever happened to things like appreciation and consideration? Even if both were wrong, Scott's right. Like rohan32 said in his very eloquent post, the devs work their asses off to give people something that benefits them for free. If the person receiving the benefit was appreciative and considerate their feedback would reflect that and couldn't be mistaken for "*****ing." There's way too much entitlement in a lot people's view of what the devs and even XDA are here for.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] knuckleheadAj3:
This irritates me to no avail. I've been on this site for years, and I'm a proud troller, lurker, or whatever the hell you want to call me.

I don't dev.

I don't beta test.

I READ!!!!!!!!!

This forum is not that hard difficult to maneuver and its easy as the alphabet to search this forum and specific threads. The devs and moderators have done painstaking work to make this website easy for even the beginners of beginners to use. And with how easy all this rooting and updating has come, these issues and complaints are moronic.

....I wish I could've one clicked rooted my damn HTC touch pro.

I don't blame Scott at all for bouncing. And I wish bricked phones on the idiots that complain. This is the third dev we've lost, the first two was dev issues, but this, because you want a new thread because you refuse to read back six pages and follow the instructions in the OP just blows my mind.

This place isn't what it used to be. I honestly wouldn't mind if this place went to read/download only and let the true devs discuss. Too many pointless requests, too much bickering, and NOT ENOUGH READING!!!!!!!!!!!

I've been posting them in the accessories forum for the past few weeks. MedicStuder just won an OtterBox Defender :D

I'm glad you asked about them, do you think it would be cool if I posted them in general from here on out so more people see them and have a chance to win? I'm going to be doing them every week until I run out of cases or go broke, whichever comes first lol. I don't think a lot of people check accessories too often so if I could post them in general that would give more people a chance to win.

Late to the party, but I was expecting when "xda members" start ****ting up this sub forum. People on this xda are filled with self absorbed individuals that think devs OWE THEM SOMETHING. That's why you constantly see good developers leave XDA for greener pastures. Someone spends hours upon hours pro bono improving a device you own and you thank them by insulting them? Just go kill yourself if you can't spend a few minutes to read through instructions when the dev spends hours making the rom.

This is why we can't have nice things.

I endorse everything that's been said so far. :mad:

In my 20 years online (yes, I'm old--get off my porch), it's never ceased to amaze me the degree to which certain people will assert and viciously defend a proprietary interest in things they pick up for free on the internet. I saw it in the BBS era, the Usenet, AOL, the dot-com boom, the early internet forums, the iOS jailbreak community, and now here. Someone goes to the trouble of putting out something useful for free, and you not only think it belongs to you, you act like the guy who made it owes you something because you took it. I mean, WTF?

I've seen a few people talk about the devs here as if they're running a business by offering roms and mods. Just because they ask for donations, these people think this is a business that entitles them to full-scale customer service. As a lawyer who does IP law, I can tell you that this is about as off-base as it can be.

If anything, this is most analogous to someone performing music on the street. No one is forcing you to stop and listen, but if you do, and like it enough to stick around a few minutes, it's customary to toss in a tip. If you do, you're entitled to put in a request or two. But if you don't like the music, your recourse is to stop listening and move on. The musician certainly doesn't owe you anything because you listened for a few minutes. It's your decision--and yours only--to listen or not, or tip or not.

Of course, these folks never recognize themselves in these rants, and go on behaving as if the world owes them whatever they want regardless of whether they did anything to deserve it. All we can do is rally around the the people who actually go to the effort of creating worthwhile things.

Those are the people who matter. The critics and complainers don't.

This was done before I even bothered to check other threads, because I finally got off work and was able to actually focus on fixing my phone.

Onto my second topic. What I say, and what I think of someone and how they have acted in the past, is that of my own prerogative. Just as you all may have your thoughts of other people including myself. However, what Scott used to close out his threads was something I said to another person in a PM, after he attacked me.

Seeing as I completely forgot that the internet is like High School, I shouldn't have even said what I did to the kind fellow who PM'd me in a very aggressive manner. I did not expect for that person to then share that with Scott, as it was my own personal perception of the situation. The same person even went into the thread after Red5 told people to knock it off.

At the end of the day, I've learned that I'm not going to really trust anyone by myself, and not to blindly flash ****. In addition, I've realized that XDA is like High School, and I'm only going to contribute when I actually think that providing input will be valuable to progression.

That said, this was the first time something like this happened, and in my time lurking + being an actual registered member, I've received a decent amount of Thanks without even providing a service other than my input.

Sad to see Scott go, on behalf of all those who like his work. I do not, but that doesn't mean that my opinion and perception should punish you all.

Thanks,

I'm gonna play the devils advocate a little bit here, but when you put yourself and your work out there like he and so many talented devs do, you really need to have thicker skin than what he has shown. There are hundreds and hundreds of people who "thank" him in various ways on this forum, and then go run away because a few dipshits criticize his work? Not sure I really get that, but I'm not a dev...so who knows. It certainly is not the end of the world. That being said, 4.1 DE was a slick damn rom compared to anything I have in before or since...hopefully he'll realize how silly it was to leave and come on back.

Guys, Im really disappointed and disgusted with what happened... but at the same time I cant allow flames here. Now, nobody has said the names of the people(s) that caused Scott to leave, so there is no direct flaming... yet. Just please dont stoop to their level and break the rules in this thread.

Now, having said that... Im pissed at what happened. I have ran CleanRom since 2.0 and I have loved it. Ive tried a lot of roms here and they are all good, but the matter of fact is we dont have a huge Dev base here... so by Scott leaving we just lost 15% of our Dev work... and if you include all the mods he was doing for us and have done, we just lost 20% of future awesomeness. A truly sad day indeed.

Scott, if youre reading this, if you want me to do anything to your threads (clean them up or whatever you need) let me know if there is a chance that you will come back. Ill be more than glad to help you out my friend!

The only thing that makes me not want to go bust some knee caps is that I am guessing Scott will continue on making roms (on his own site, if not here). He can't help himself. (<-- that was humor, for those of you who are humorless).

I used his roms on my Rezound, and largely chose the HTC One X since he got it and was making roms for it. I might not follow him to every phone he gets (I can only afford to switch every 6 months... lol), but I'll enjoy his wares while I can.

I'm sorry, but I have to say that just last week I found myself thinking that Scott had gone from being what seemed like a very likable, hard working, humble and helpful guy to somewhat of a martinet. I really saw a change in his attitude which was very strange to say the least. His ego really seemed to explode which was very uncharacteristic of his nature. I don't know if I was the only one who thought they saw this, but it really seemed to happen very very quickly. Maybe its personal problems or maybe he's just sick of this crap. I don't know, and neither does anyone else here, I suspect. I really don't have a dog in this fight, just wanted to voice my perception of the problem. Anyway, as someone else has already stated, these things happen and they usually take care of themselves.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] :
Does it really matter? If hes having life issues or work issues, does that really matter you or anyone? How about we just leave personal lives out of it, alright? Scott still continues to work on his roms, post and answer people every day. That is a lot more than some other Devs can do. Scott dedicates a lot of time to XDA. He just gave us two awesome releases in the last week and was also working on a modifier app for us.

Good Lord, some people just look for the smallest negative they can and just forget about all of the positive that they do. I just dont get it...
