[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] kenq2001:
I know it's a waste of my time typing this message and you may not want to read it. I added this message as I noted that you guys were discussing on how to respond to user's questions in the latest postings and this is my last time visiting this thread.

This is the response that I received from "XXX" two days ago. As a brand new user to any AOSP roms, I prefer to being responded to my questions even thougth it sounds harsh to me rather than being ignored. But it would be better if the response can be friendly without biased assumption.

I appreciate your time and knowlege and offer your help to others for free. You intention is to remind us of not being make big mistakes on our devices. I hear that.

I was mad at the stupid assumption that I did not read OP's page or did not do enough research before posting questions here. YOU ARE WRONG!!

After being on TW roms for the past two years, I tried the slimkat rom last weekend and it was my first-time experience with any AOSP roms. After receiving his following message, I immediately removed slimkat rom from my device and moved to the Vanilla CM 11 Nightly rom. So far, it's as stable as the slimkat rom with similar efficiency and the CM rom has more options including new theme engine. I noted no problem so far.

As new user, it is easy for us to ommit something that is important we may not be fully aware of the implication. Right after posting my question on Sunday, I thought I should have mentioned what I did right before I had my problem. In facts, I added and tried multiple things on your rom. I was on business travel and totally forgot about that.

For sure, I wanted to try different things after installing the slimkat rom and I did read the OP page, the FAQ, and even the Xposed Gravitybox (KK). It is my fault that I did not read through each and everything in it. The first sentence says it is primarily for users of AOSP devices. In the middle of long description, it says "SHOULD NOT be used with custom ROMs like CM, SlimBean, etc." (and it doesn't explain how the SlimBean is different from your slimkat rom) and MAY cause conflicts.... It's just a possibility and nothing is for sure. Why did you blame it was my problem and not your rom's problem. I did not say that and I don't care whose problem it is. Who cares whether yoru rom is noble, perfect or not? Don't behave like a smart guy and assume other people are lazy or Ignorant. It will do nothing good to you or your thread.

There is a learning curve when we try something new. I spent my time and tried to read information, but still I might have missed something (apprarently I did). But BY NO MEANS, I intended to save my time in reading and leverage your time for getting the answer for it. I do care about adding things to my devices on which I spent $600. We new users need tolerance and we make basic mistakes often time. You can ignore our questions if you like but don't make STUPID assumption that we are just lazy. In real life, I guess you have to be tolerant to others even though you are smart on certain things. Otherwise, people will just ignore you, this time. I know it's none of my business. I know it won't bother you, I won't come back to this thread and will not know whatever your response will be. No longer interested in it. GOOD LUCK Gentleman.

===============Your response to my question on 8/10 ====================================

Even though you failed to mention this, it's obvious that yesterday you also installed xposed framework and one of those buggy modules like gravitybox.

That's your problem, has nothing to do with the rom.

In the future I suggest reading the FAQ of any module/app/rom w/e you install on your phone.

Had you have done so with gravity box you would have seen the following message.

Quote:

- SHOULD NOT be used with custom ROMs like CM, AOSPA, RootBox, SlimBean and others - it makes no sense since the most of the features are already

in the ROM (may cause conflicts and unexpected behaviour)
