[One (M7) Android Development] j to the 4n:
Sebby my friend, thank you so much for finally giving me the chance again to post a proper rant again...been a while (-:

First let me explain the current situation a bit:

Currently 75% of the devs (that can code) are busy with private life - If you don't know what that is, let me give you a few examples:

- Work

- University

- Usual private ****

- Family, wife kids.

- cod

- etc...

So we got currently 25% left of the coders maintaining the roms. We are four devs, so you can guess how many devs are currently active.

If you are not that good in maths: It's only me. At this point huge thanks to [MENTION=1792279]ivicask[/MENTION] [MENTION=1930589]shnizlon[/MENTION] [MENTION=1102297]Sneakyghost[/MENTION] [MENTION=918378]Basil3[/MENTION] all supporters, beta testers that makes my life much easier...wouldn't be able to

manage all that currently without you.

So back to the explanation I promised you.

My day looks atm like that:

- 6am Waking up, turning on my phone while still in bed and checking the xda threads and my mails and replying to a few.

- Getting up and preparing for work

- Take the tram to work and getting through the our xda threads and trying to reply to some more posts.

- At work then, going through the xda threads again and check if I need to reply to some more...that I do several times at work.

- Besides the xda threads we got a ticketsystem. That one is now 4 months old and the amount of tickets the user created in that time count now already 1300 tickets..and guess what people want there replies as well!

- Additionally there's then our website that we relaunched with a little forum that needs quite some work too

- Oh ****, totally forgot that I got a ****load of work to do for job as well, better not making a 1 hour break for lunch and staying a bit longer in the office to get my work done.

- Between 4pm and 7pm time to get home...wife want's something to eat, so better get into the kitchen quickly and get something done

- Between 7pm and 8pm finally time for "me", that basically means turning on my laptop, checking the xda threads, pms, tickets, website and forum again...and irc, people come in there requesting help from time to time to.

Thanks to [MENTION=2256702]Zanzibar[/MENTION] and [MENTION=2605798]nkk71[/MENTION] at this point, always funny with you guys there.

- doing that till 10-11 pm and hitting the hay then

I counted the threads for you, think we were at the point already that you might not me that good in maths....tbh always thought I'm just monitoring 8 threads.

..the mails I'm replying to each day, coming from the feedback item of the VenomHub

..the amount of tickets that want's to be answered.

That's what I'm basically doing each day. When I'm in the mood I'm turning my eclipse on and code stuff new stuff or fix bugs...always got xda and irc in my view though in case someone needs help.

Wonder what other people do after work, what you are doing? Flashing roms and complain about bugs? Would really like to change with you (-:

My weekends mostly serve therefore getting my household cleaned up, spending time with my wife, visiting parents and friends...my apologizes at this point to you.

I know I should use that time I got here fix stuff on the m7...

Earlier I tried to code at the weekend none stop, up to 20 hours at the weekend to make our users happy with updates...still doing that from time to time, but not that often anymore.

I got a wife at home that complains 2-3 times a week that I spend to less time with here and too much time with my laptop.

Worth to mention maybe is, my wife and me bought a flat (new building) that will be ready in june 2015 hopefully. means I got currently several appointments with workmens, notary, construction management etc.

Really no idea anymore how I'm capable of doing all that **** all the time...but it works somehow.

Back a bit to your post...let me see.

Oh yeah should fix stuff for you on the m7.

Didn't I say that I gifted my m7 to m0narx? about 6 months or more ago? So well yeah I don't have that device anymore...

STILL I decided to spend a week getting you the 4.4.3 update...I ported all files blind and let the beta testers confirm if sth is working or not, since I wasn't able to. Huge thanks at all m7 testers, without them you wouldn't have a 7.0.1.

Yeah maybe 10% of the tweaks (lol-strike a 0 at the end) might not work, my apologizes...are those stock features? No? So nothing what that would keep someone away from using our rom as daily...since other roms don't have that feature anyway, broken or not.

May I question why you still running our rom if you are so unhappy with it? There are plenty of other roms out there you can use...not happy with them, explain? Oh 99% of the tweaks you are using are working?

Why do actually don't make you own roms? Didn't you have one yourself, err called Bug**** errr BugX? Wasn't that successfull heh? (-:

It's not just you, but some people really don't get that this stuff all here s just a hobby for us that we do in our freetime while having other stuff to care of called private life.

Some people though, including you think that with the release of a rom version we owe you fixes, updates and more and more updates. You act as if you would pay us for the stuff we need to do? Oh you bought a pro key, thanks for that really.

But not really getting rich with it. Now that we are already at the topic money...you really think it's all about money nowadays? Yeah, well true there are things need to be payed, if it's for servers, homepage, hosting etc.

Yeah I'm getting donations...and people that I forwarded that money knows where it goes to.

Oh and what I forgot...the worst thing I need to do is wasting my time with jumping jacks like you.
