While that's a sensible enough idea from the outset, this wouldn't alleviate the fact that most ERDs use direct hosting of some sort for anything they post, as they are not developing to make money... To name a few, there's a few CM contributors there on Samsung devices, who run their own direct downloads for things (including in one case a large Linux ISO...)

Surely it's not morally right to say "ok, if you are an ERD, you can make money off your downloads and use spammy redirect sites"?

Oh, one thing from earlier - this rule is also here to prevent people using the "ad-wall" shortener sites - there are some URL shorteners that require you to wait for X seconds while ads are displayed. They look unprofessional, and are quite clearly and blatantly advertised as being money-makers for the link maker.

The issue with those is obviously the malicious ads being served, and the fact it presents horrendous user experience to everyone (particularly when people chain up 5 or more of these redirect sites, eventually taking you to a freemium download site).

And I would foresee a large number of people announce "let me be an ERD or I'll stop developing" if your suggestion was implemented, as it would give them the idea to try turn open source development into moneymaking.

Here is a suggestion for the forum rules:

Make a mandatory download link for goo.im or similar, but allowing up to three alternative download sources for those who want to support the developer by downloading from these sites. The alternative download sources have to be marked as such and should clearly state, that they could be scam or similar.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] djsolidsnake86:
hope to see new updates soon
[HD2 Android NAND Development] marco.palumbi:
I'll completely agree with you when xda will share some revenue with the developers (if they want).

--
[HD2 Android NAND Development] sunitknandi:
On this point, I agree to [MENTION=2178960]pulser_g2[/MENTION] that this example could lead hobbyist development to money making.

I am offering [MENTION=2677399]tytung[/MENTION] hosting for his ROM files if he likes. Or if he wants he could display banner ads on his Google sites pages and host the file on goo.im of devhost, so that nothing interferes with the download link.

I know everyone here will hit me for this... but in the end greed kills.

Most money making sharing sites are worse than banner ad networks, they either pay peanuts or turn out to be scam after harassing people who download your file. At the end of the day, it is losses for everyone. Been using such sites for a long time, ultimately switched fully to Dropbox.

It all depends if XDA is a profit making or non-profit organisation. The arguments for and against his case will vary accordingly.

Point is most of the other HD2 devs have moved on to other devices, or do not have functional HD2s or have given up developing altogether. Tytung for now seems to be the only one dedicated to maintaining the HD2 development, along with just a handful of others, making this whole case a BIG mess.

I don't feel like writing any further. Let's wait and watch for a workaround.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Good_vibes:
This:

and this:

I visit xda several times a day soley because tytung and his ROM's. If he leaves XDA people will follow.

The solution is very simple and is right there!
[HD2 Android NAND Development] paulwoodward:
Hi Tytung,

Just let us all know where you plan to more your threads to and Im sure we will all follow!

If XDA do not want you posting on their site it will be there loss!
[HD2 Android NAND Development] adell_:
I visit this website everyday mainly because of tytung's ROM. I understand the issue but IMO this is too excessive use of the rules. It's not like anyone can make a fortune from the download links.

[HD2 Android NAND Development] bogdatov:
I believe that if person is smart enough to flash ROM on HD2 (with everything in between, like CWR, MAGLDR, CLK, etc) he will figure out if hosting site (like depositfiles) has virus/malware/etc.

[HD2 Android NAND Development] Robbie P:
So good, you posted twice;)

Welcome to xda :)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] vklaffehn:
Ups´, was my first try with the XDA app .-)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] NYLimited:
In my opinion, this is a valid question. If XDA derives absolutely no profits from traffic (e.g. no revenue other than voluntary donations) I can understand the perspective taken. People leaving XDA to follow a dev would also matter but little since there is no revenue stream attached to visitors, eye-balls or page views.

If XDA does, however, generate revenues other than from voluntary donations the perspective is, let's just say, a little hypocritical. And, while it is truly not my business I must wonder - if XDA does not generate revenues from sources beyond donations how can the Portal afford to pay writers?

As for the quality of user experience, I do not personally have issues with Tytung's download sites. I normally download one copy of a new release from EACH of his download sites. Once I start the download I simply go and do something else. I do not know, nor care how long it takes.

On the other hand, advertising banners also slow my user experience and use up bandwidth I pay for. I do not complain about ads either but they do impact user experience and bandwidth if/when used by a site.

Anyway, this is neither my call nor my decision to make and I do not claim to have all the answers here so I will refrain from further comment. :'(
[HD2 Android NAND Development] adell_:
I believe most of the users don't have a problem with this. I'm wondering that if a thread for an app that has a paid version on Google Play violates the rule as well? Isn't it an indirect advertising?

Anyway, if tytung leaves this website, I will follow him in case he continues to develop his ROM's and probably won't often visit this website anymore.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] spetrie:
55 hours. I get nothing like that. 12 hours in good signal area with 2 hours screen use. Lucky if I get 6 hours with little use with poor cell signal. I live in poor cell signal area. Experimenting with an app to switch phone into flight mode on cell loss and automatically check for signal every 10mins and turn off flight mode if signal returns. Seems to work so far. Have to determine how much longer my battery will last with this setup.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] tytung:
Did you install and run a lot of background apps?

Maybe it's related to out of memory.

No logcat. I can only guess.

Persistence Data drop issue

[MENTION=2677399]tytung[/MENTION]

Hi tytung,

can you please check out the source of my persistence data drop issue that I reported earlier (see HERE). Others including [MENTION=770489]NYLimited[/MENTION] confirmed my findings here. I kept downloading all your latest roms from all your links just to support you but I am stuck in gingerbread because of this issue.

Thanks.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] tytung:
Does your site have any bandwidth limits per day and per month?

Although HD2 ROMs are not as popular as before, your site may still need to be able to serve over 200GB total bandwidths (over 1000 downloads) in a single day when I release a new ROM (e.g., in the JB CM10 V1.5's case).

Then the number of downloads will decrease day by day.

Yes, some file hosting sites are scam. They shave the download counts too.

But they offer the enough bandwidths.

Dropbox has bandwidth limits per file.

:good:
[HD2 Android NAND Development] NYLimited:
I am not certain this is an issue with Tytung's ROM/Kernel although it may be a JB issue or a Play Store issue.

Sadly, I experience the same problem when using a Nexus 7 (not a Tytung ROM) with Franco Kernel (neither Tytung nor Google kernel).
[HD2 Android NAND Development] trex3300:
You are probably right, but [MENTION=2677399]tytung[/MENTION] maybe able to fix this issue if he has time to look at it. He just waived his magic wand and find solution for people with low volume issue. This is one of the reasons that many of us are Tytung's hard core fans and will always follow him.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] tytung:
I'll be very busy this month and next month.

So I'll keep the current status unchanged.

If xda does further actions, I may be forced to behave accordingly.

Sorry for the off topic and my bad English. Hope I have stated it clearly.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] trungsoo:
then that means we won't have any new update in the next 2 months? :(

p/s: don't worry we will always be there to protect you. everyone will support you with everything we have :):D
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Lincoln357:
+1 from me.

I think these rules are too tight and now used in abusive way,especially regarding Tytung's great work.

Wherever he goes (if he goes), I will follow.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] FCORivers:
I have downloaded every ROM from tytung and never have taken an hour to download. I think that other devs and users had reported because of add blocking not allowing to download.

I mean, who doesn't use advertisements to earn money??? They are freaking everywhere, lol. Like TV, tytungs ROMs are worth the ads.

Tytung's work keeps this phones running.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] valeri.nikolov:
Well said :)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] marcimix:
Keep your hands down, please!

And xda from google ads or whatever else will be had less views for me for example. Tytung, is the only one who making a roms for the HD2 with the clean cyanmod and have brilliant stable, fast code :good:
[HD2 Android NAND Development] g.andy:
Noooooo, tytung is a life of hd2 and without tytung, the hd2 il dead. All rom of hd2 are based on tytung's rom.

[HD2 Android NAND Development] Sancher:
I can't get Sixaxis Controller app working on this ROM. Can anyone suggest why? The app just doesn't see the joystick when searching it. It worked well on 4.1.2

Someone said that in some new 4.2.2 ROMS something has been changed in bluetooth. And ROM makers have to find out what to make this app work on their ROM.

Its not my words, someone just said that.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] MarkAtHome:

[HD2 Android NAND Development] sunitknandi:
As far as I know, my site's bandwidth is unmetered. :)

Another mirror you could try is goo.im and dev-host with adfly in front. I don't know if they permit or not, but it seems a better workaround.

Thanks tytung ;)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] sandymac:
Not quite true, unfortunately, although Tytung has done his best. The low sound issue is still there and revolves around the new Bluetooth, I believe. Others also have problems with Bluetooth connectivity etc. That is why we need Tytung to stay with this so that all of these minor bugs are ironed out. :fingers-crossed:
[HD2 Android NAND Development] pathologo:
Have you been contacted again, yet?

Also, it would be very nice if all of you would refrain from further ROM discussion until this matter is solved.

---------- Post added at 06:34 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:22 PM ----------

There are lot of Fsking ROMS out their at XDA HD2 forum that users can play with alot, But tytung's NexusHD2 series Android ROMs are the only ones that suits for daily drive which are very very stable. Please leave him from this useless argument. I am pretty sure he wont tolerate these nonsense argument anymore. pls stop this now atleast :(
[HD2 Android NAND Development] slashas69:
Tytung, just make your own page without ads, with dl links in your page, and just post your page link here, this wont break xda rules ;)

Rule 13

IMHO rule 13 is not violated, Tytung publishes on xda only link to nexushd2android.tytung.com which is not comercial site, thera are links to the comercial site, but it is not published on xda.

Than You for Your magnificent work and use any way to share Your work with us I'm perfectly hapy with current state.

Different install methods

So far for now everything goes smoothly and we'll with the latest version. Just want to ask the epic question ; which install method will be running faster : dataöverföring or native sd one, of course with 16gb class 10 micro SD card. Till now I used just the data on method, so far it goes well. Just curious about the speed of native sd method.

Any info?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Robbie P:
Quote from first post-

You can try and see for yourself;)

Make sure your sdext partition is big enough for new nativeSD system folder (/data is shared) +a bit more for good measure;)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] mokkami:
I never used DataOnExt. I always used Nand installation.

2 Weeks ago i gave NativeSD for the first time a chance on a 4GB class 4 microSD card.

I'am excited and i don't want to miss NativeSD anymore.

No Lags. But i use nearly no apps.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] tytung:
Bandwidth is expensive.

If your site has unlimited bandwidth, I think it's for web hosting only.

As far as I know, only "web hosting" plan has unlimited bandwidth. And the file sharing service is not allowed in this plan.

Other more expensive plans, like VPS or dedicated server, have limited bandwidth.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] tytung:
The User Experience Admin was contacting me via PM.

I have replied to him all my previous PMs content I talked with another senior moderator I mentioned before.

Don't worry. I'm fine.

I don't feel any pressures from xda. I'm just busy in my real life.

I have content (ROMs) and knowledge, and they (xda) are just a content delivery platform, not my boss.

I don't do any illegal thing. I don't need to follow their silly rule 13, which they have different explanations for money making including donations, advertisement, promoting paid apps on XDA, etc. :p

I can always change the platform if I want.

For example, setup my own forum.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] symbuzzer:
And maybe ı will be a moderator in tytungs forum:) "hey man, this topic already started before. Please search before posting. Topic locked. I warn you, if you made it again, ı will ban you." :D
[HD2 Android NAND Development] adell_:
I agree with you on this. If they want to use the 13th rule strictly, they can't make any exceptions. They can't allow donations and promoting of apps that have a paid version.

Actually, I don't understand why this happened. Some user reported this because they had a problem downloading this ROM (which released about once a month) so they wanted to force the ROM developer to use other file hosting that he didn't want to use? This is beyond me.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Robbie P:
I can foresee people here in the future falling foul of xda rule 11

It could be like in the House of Commons in my country when they refer to "Another Place" meaning the House of Lords.;)

We shall see what happens.

(BTW symbuzzer has my vote for senior mod, seems very moderate:p)

I think best solution is new forum absolutely, I agree tytung. In this case; he can add his own ads, links in it freely. When it realizes, I protest xda and never login anymore.

Hi tytung,

Many thanks taking time to answer to my post.According to task killer, I've about 20 apps running in background (with permanent notifications in the top bar : watchdog, greenfreepower, setcpu, llama. Others : battery monitor widget, apod, viber, business calendar free, nova launcher,...) and between 90 Mb and 180 Mb of free ram.

What logcat would need ? I can not tell when the pb occurs, so I've no idea of what logcat should help.

For the moment, I've restored a 2.1 backup and upgrade it two times (to get data back) to 2.2.

One more time, many thanks for the job and the time spent !
[HD2 Android NAND Development] slashas69:
Get rid of watchdog, setcpu, rom has these functions included, like network bandwith monitor and performance edit...

Viber also makes a lot of trouble...
[HD2 Android NAND Development] benlm72:
Thank's for your answer.

For watchdog, could you tell me which function included could replace it ? For SetCPU too, as I don't know how to set two profiles (screen on, screen off) with what I've found in included function.

For Viber, I use an old version that don't have the sound problem.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] adell_:
If you want to use profiles, you can use SetCPU. I use it for a long time and have no problem.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] sunitknandi:
I see. But since they are screaming dev-host, try using that with adf[dot]ly. :D

[HD2 Android NAND Development] crayola555:
Hmm, strange. I get no ringtone sounds but my notifications are working. I can see the list of ringtones in settings, but when i preview them or when someone calls no sound is there. Where do i go to check on it?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] agbommarito:
I had that happen to me once. Use a file explorer and look in the SD Card ringtones folder. If your problem is like mine, you'll see all the ringtone file names but the file sizes will be zero. If that is the case, just reflash the ROM as an update.

Well just one week away from this thread.. Seems lot has happened.... [MENTION=2677399]tytung[/MENTION]

From froyo I have been using ur ROM as a regularly everyday use..

It sad to see tht a developer who puts his hard work and time in keeping this legendary device running.

He deserves more then this xda **** of rules 13..

I do hope sincerely that tytung makes his own forum thread for hd2 with his ads and banners with the download links to sites which earns him..

I m from India n I download his ROM for 8 hrs at 2kbps speed..

Those who want to have a sexy tytung ROM will surely won't mind downloading ..

[MENTION=2677399]tytung[/MENTION]

let's us know when n where u move.. This whole hd2 gang.. Will surely be there.. No doubt about tht...
[HD2 Android NAND Development] ares93:
There is something very strange with this rom. Mobile data comes and goes, and quite frankly I have no idea why. Tested on two different HD2's (EU and TMOUS), same setup. Tested with the same or another mSD card. Reflashed android, task29, flashed stock WM several times. No go. Tried updating 4.1.2, tried clean flash, tried PPP as well nothing. Once the device is rebooted mobile data comes back but then it works one minute and goes the next. Tried different sim cards, same issue.

Went back to NexusHD2 4.1.2 CM10 and mobile data is back for a day straight now. No issues whatsoever.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Ultraboss:
Recent apps / tasks list issue

a feedback about this,

"Disable HW overlays" option limits fps to 30 (instead of 60) and isn't saved after reboot :(

Glitches I'have mentioned in Facebook is app related, they are present no matter the "Force GPU rendering" option is enable or not :p

Some questions comes to me :

Why the "Disable HW overlays" option is disabled at reboot ? (maybe in a .prop file)

Is it possible to patch the "recent apps preview" to enable the option on demand ??
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Elveneleven:
I'm totally blind. Where can i find enable inApp menu button In settings. I had it once set, but after reinstall of Rom i can't find it, but it must there.

Still the softkeys don't want to turn on in landscape on my device ...

I tried absolutely everything ...

Im using cLK 1.5.2.1 with CWM 5.0.2.6 and the nativeSD version of this ROM (NexusHD2 JB 2.2)

The instalation order:

rom - reboot (with disabled softkeys - tried with enabled aswell)

pwr button mod - reebot (this adds the power button nicely)

softkeys switcher v3 (v2 doesnt work for me - im flashing it when i didnt enable the softkeys in the rom installation) - reebot the softkey apear when not enabled at the rom installation

now im trying to enable the softkeys in landscape but it refuses to work ... I really dont know what am I doing wrong ... The strange thing is it happens aswell on the latest ICS rom from [MENTION=2677399]tytung[/MENTION] ...

Really tell me someone what am I doing wrong because im pissed of with this whole thing ... The installation goes with no errors ...

[MENTION=2677399]tytung[/MENTION] - is it possible to include the framework landscape activator during the installation process in Aroma ?

The softkeys appear only in the two portrait positions ... tried to uncheck the "stretch display to fit to screen" but it didnt help either...
[HD2 Android NAND Development] islammanjurul:
need a solution to a problem - phone.apk crashes sometimes, have to restart the phone or sometimes needed to pop out battery and reset it, since phone gets totally non-responsive. any solution?

You have to flash another zip to enable softkeys in landscape. You can find it in op.

The back key is not working in landscape even when you manage to get softkeys showing up in landscape .
