[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge ROMs, Kernels, Rec] Binary100100:
But this one is especially difficult due to the fact that it needs to be pushed with ADB. If there is an issue with the install then it's a pain in the butt to restore. Sure, he could theoritically produce an update.zip file for us to use with Flashfire, but if something goes wrong... he receives dozens of messages asking how to restore without a computer. Also, remember that no developer is ever required to produce or even support anything that they have made for XDA. Development is volunteer work. 90% of the time, it's a personal hobby that one savvy user has then decides to share it with everyone else. I have a lot of update zip files that I use with my S7. Mostly modified versions of psouza4's update file. But I refuse to share it because I'm not willing to support it within the community. If I did share it, then psouza4 would receive most of the credit. Meanwhile, I'd receive most of the inquires and cries for support because something didn't work right. This is why I refuse to develop anymore. Plus, very few members can even relate to what it's like to be a developer. If you release a single rom... the next time you log on you might only have six messages for members asking for help and/or suggestions. A few days later, you'll have three times that. Plus your thread for the rom. And when an update is released.... all hell breaks loose. Now... multiply that by how many roms you currently support. Overwhelmed yet? Now slow down the support for a rom (due to the fact that you still have something of a personal life) and watch comments like this show up. Just because there isn't an update, doesn't mean that the project is "dead."

Some of you need to realize that life happens. I was working two full time jobs while developing. I took to moderating while I was working for the city which demanded a lot of my time. Needless to say, it got old quick. Then when a very close family member became sick... everything (including my job) took a back seat. Why? Because life happens!

If he chooses to continue support for this, great. If not, then thank him for his work and find something else. No disrespect intended to the OP but if he hasn't released an update for you then he more than likely doesn't care if you use his rom or not. So while you get all wound up and get everyone else going about the lack of updates, you're only being counterproductive. What developer wants to log on and see his thread full of negative comments? So he can continue support (forever) or he could let it die while you move on with your life. I wouldn't blame him either. With the lack of a fully functional recovery, it's too much work to develop something, test it on your own device, discover that it doesn't work, ODIN flash stock files, re-root, re-install SU/Flashfire/busybox/etc and try to adb push files all over again. It's a pain! Without a recovery, we have no other choice. But everyone is demanding him to do it anyway. If he doesn't, he receives a thread full of negativity and off topic posts.

Now... with all of that being said, if you still feel that we are entitled to new updates, please first explain to me how further statements about lack of development is productive?

But... if you like, I can suggest that this thread be closed. Why not? It's not being supported anymore, right? Because that's where we're heading. :(
