Isn't it kind of funny how the moment that beta builds are announced to be released that ever other post is a thank you and transaction ID. I think its great that everyone donates to Myn but it should be this way all the time, not just near a new release because you want the betas. And take note I am in no way saying that you have to donate to get the betas, just when people find out that the possibility of seeing it sooner people who have like 2 post on XDA say thanks and or decide to donate. This is not directed at anyone in particular, but just remember donations are a nice gesture of thanks, and you shouldn't only be donating because you think you are going to get something out of doing so.

Also, this is very off topic and will probably make me sound like an ass... But has anyone noticed the amount of questions being posted in the wrong places lately?! Maybe I am just letting it get to me a little too much but holy @#$%! I usually correct the person if I post on it, but then they keep going and going about what do I do now, okay what now!? Note the majority of them are people who have screwed a phone up by using the wrong root method. What happened to reading up and researching things before doing things to your phone. I think XDA should add a entrance page warning of possible outcomes of rooting just like the adult industry does on websites LOL.

Alright, end rant and my apologies to those of you who feel that this was a waste of time, but I feel like the first part certainly wasn't.

Your right when I had my hero and when I first got my evo I used another rom and donated because I liked the rom and used it the extras where a plus

[EVO 4G Android Development] cirehawk:
Your post wasn't a waste of time. You have a right to your opinion and I have no issue with you voicing it. As far as donations go, if the announcement of a beta motivates some to donate, so be it. It's a donation, so when it's given really has no bearing to me. Either way, the end result is a good thing. Regarding posts being made in the wrong areas, I tend to not let it bother me. If I can help, I do. If I can't I ignore it, or point them in the right direction if I have an idea where to send them. I figure that if it's really a problem, the mods will deal with it. That approach seems to keep my frustration level down. Then again, I'm easy going by nature. :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] Product F(RED):
Right, but if you don't have S-OFF, how could you be on Myn's ROM to begin with? That's why they're flashable through the recovery.

I'd like to tell Derek how much I appreciate this rom and this forum. This community rocks! Several of you have taken time out of your day (an night!) to help me work through the few problems I have run into. We're all geekin out on this stuff, but I'm proud of the things I have learned! Sure, in the big scheme of things...none of this is important (blasphemy I know :p) I've had a rough year (as have many others, I'm not a sympathy seeker) and while I have a ton of real life friends, a wonderful social life and many many interests.....this has been a place I can come to and unwind. Geek out with fellow evo~geekers!

Anyway....in the spirit of the holidays I'd like to give a big shot out to everyone here (especially myn, cire, and i owe) for helping make the last 6 months FUN fun fun!
[EVO 4G Android Development] #Winning#:
I completely agree about donations being a great thing. But, I think that people need to remember that Myn puts in countless technically unpaid hours to each release. Not to mention the amount of support that he provides in the thread that a lot of Devs don't. By all means my fellow Mynions, DONATE DONATE DONATE, but do so out of thanks to Myn not for previewing a new release! ;)
[EVO 4G Android Development] cirehawk:
Exactly. S-OFF means you have rights to the NAND area of the phone, which in turn is how one can root. If you were in an S-ON state, you would not have access to the NAND area and could not root your phone (and thus could not put myns rom, or any custom rom, on your phone).
[EVO 4G Android Development] lowetax:
hi fred.

i thought you could be rooted without having S-OFF ? no ?

EDIT: i saw this - seems like it's wrong ?

S-Off = Full root ( Not really necessary unless you want to write to system and stuff while in Android.

S-On with root by unrevoked = Flash custom roms, radios, kernels, etc..

S-On is Sercurity On which means that the System files are only Read-Only.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Greenfieldan:
I'll agree with both of those. However, the first one annoys me FAR more. I'm not really bothered by posts in the wrong section because we were all new once. It's just the "here's my donation, can't wait for RLS#!" that irritate me. I mean, I'm sure Myn is happy to make money however, but I find that SERIOUSLY disrespectful :mad:
[EVO 4G Android Development] ageesm:
Kids these days...geez. Haha, jk. I personally don't think any of what you pointed out was a waste of time. Most of what you said is very valid. The biggest thing I see getting posted out of place is about rooting just because of the newer EVOs being harder to root. And people that have been rooted since the summer are not aware of the current issues (certainly not a knock on them at all).

When I got my EVO in November I spent a few days reading up on rooting/android. Coming from WM I understood the issues that can arise when not properly researching and following directions. I am generally a careful person with things like these anyway and, being a bit of a nerd anyway, enjoy reading up on all kinds of technology.

Some people just aren't that way, nothing necessarily wrong with it, but I do tend to agree with you it gets frustrating at times.
[EVO 4G Android Development] PinnerProxy:
it was possible before with Unrevoked where it was an app to root but its changed to full root on the previous evo's before their hardware update
[EVO 4G Android Development] cirehawk:
A big YOU'RE WELCOME to you slug. I didn't take your comment as seeking sympathy. I will just encourage you and say, things WILL get better. I have been blessed even during tough economic times. Not because I'm smart, but because I truly hold to the principle of "give and it shall be given unto you". That's true in real life AND on here. I help someone out here, and I in turn receive help. So to all my co-mynions, have MERRY CHRISTMAS and be a blessing to someone. :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] #Winning#:
Haha I only got really irritated over the wrong section posts because a couple of the OP's told me they posted in the wrong section because they wanted it to get answered faster. I understand the logic, but if you know you shouln't be doing it then don't, wait for an answer in Q&A.

I am done discussing my opinions though, I don't want to waste post's in a rom thread over this. (Sorry Derek)
[EVO 4G Android Development] slugbug2010:
I agree.

And would like to add that I suspect there are many that don't post their donation transaction id, but have donated.

Posts being in the wrong place......I'm on the fence with that one. I see many posts in the general section that get very few responses and/or are pointed in the direction of the rom in case the issue might be rom related. I don't mind the kernel posts here because we are on a sense rom and if a kernels works on a sense rom then I am interested in it and how it is performing on this rom in particular. And then some of the posts are totally off topic but some of us have been hanging around this forum for months now and that can be kinda fun. I don't like the clutter and I feel bad for the folks that need help and that post gets lost in a conversation about kernels or swype (that's the one topic I just skim right past).
[EVO 4G Android Development] lowetax:
ditto to Derek !

and thanks slugbug ! some great people in the forums.

btw slug, are you upgrading to slugbug2011 in a week ? :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] slugbug2010:
Thank you. I am a true believer in things happen for a reason. I always believe in paying it forward :)

Things are already better because I choose to make them so :) We all deserve to be happy in life and we have the power to make that happen. Attitude and faith has a lot to do with that (NO religious debate intended - faith in self, confidence is self, or faith in whatever you choose to have faith in)
[EVO 4G Android Development] glockliberty:
I just flashed an AOSP rom thinking I would check it out since I have been using warm 2.2 basically since the first day I had my phone.

And now the RLS 5 beta is starting?

Guess it's back to sense for me!

Edit:i also want to say that this year had been really fantastic for me and it is entirely because of the philosophy being described a few posts up.... I literally spent christmas in the street four years ago... today I know I am truly blessed to have a roof over my head and a phone to flash stuff on. Merry Christmas to everyone and may God/the universe/fate bless you all.

apologies for being off topic.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jeffhbo:
FYI, I make a donation before every beta release and I am thankful for every beta release. I'm sure I'm not the only one who does this. So, maybe you should take your own advice and consider making another donation. I think its kinda funny when a person wastes a bunch of thread space lecturing about his assumptions. You want to voice your opinion? Start a blog.
[EVO 4G Android Development] mylasthope:
I'm stoked for the new release. I've used Fresh since I first got my Evo and a little bit of Azrael, but this rom looks way too cool to not flash. I would flash 4, but I've already updated all of my radios. :(

Happy holidays everyone!
[EVO 4G Android Development] retnuh730:
Easiest way to update your radios if flashing from the other threads doesn't work:

1) Nandroid your entire ROM. This is important for easily restoring after the update

2) Download the PC36IMG.zip from chris 1983's rooted 3.70 update ROM thread and put it in the root of your sd card

3) Enter the bootloader by powering on while holding down the down key

4) It will ask if you want to install the PC36IMG, say yes. It'll wipe your phone and install the new radios.

5) Boot the phone back up to see if it loads correctly

6) Restart and get to recovery and restore from the nandroid

Boom. Updated radios. No headache. I highly recommend it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] athlet1c:
AMEN.. well SAID

AMEN
[EVO 4G Android Development] Greenfieldan:
He's right though. While not everyone does it, a lot of people only donate to make sure they stay on the beta list. While that's fine and all, that's like giving charity (not saying Myn's a charity case :D haha) only when you know it's a tax deduction. I mean yeah, you're still giving to charity. But you shouldn't have to receive something in order to give. He's allowed to voice his opinion because this is a community. In fact, a lot of us were thinking it and he was the only one brave enough to say it. I'm sure you and a lot of people donate plenty...but his point is still valid :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] sintricate:
Has flashing these new radios helped anyone? I'd love for some improved 4G action.
[EVO 4G Android Development] #Winning#:
Thanks Green, I was going to post a response earlier to that post but didn't want to fuel any fires. I by no means am trying to cause any drama but all the issues with betas in the past made me think about this whole thing. I guess I am a little too outspoken at times. To anyone who felt offended, I apologize I understand this ISNT always the case looking from the outside in, it seems that way.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Greenfieldan:
The 4G one helped me a lot. I used to get about 3 Mbs...now I'm averaging 6 :D. I'd recommend it. Other than people who updated their pri, I've not heard of one person saying it HURT their radio performance (because technically, it shouldn't).
[EVO 4G Android Development] retnuh730:
Is it true that ClockworkMod isn't supported by the new radio version? Would that mess anything up?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Greenfieldan:
Don't mention it. I said the same thing during the whole "donation for beta" scandal and got ripped for it. A lot of people who didn't understand that I wasn't attacking Myn absolutely ripped me...but a lot of people agreed. Trust me, you're not the first person to be pseudo disgusted at the "here's my donation. I getz betaz nowz?" posts, and you definitely won't be the last :) :cool:
[EVO 4G Android Development] Greenfieldan:
That's a load of bananas if I've ever heard it. I just came back from the Gingerbread ROM using Clockwork so I'd say it's working well :D haha
[EVO 4G Android Development] #Winning#:
That is where the problem lies within. With people posting like that it makes it seem as though Myn is charging for a beta when infact he is not. And I stood up in that whole war too for Myn with the argument that a donation is a donation. You donate out of gratitude for a Dev's work and a beta is just an added bonus.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Greenfieldan:
Amen man :cool:
[EVO 4G Android Development] ticklemepinks:
wait did he send out the new betas?????
[EVO 4G Android Development] Persnlmgr:

49p97846vx417643w :p
[EVO 4G Android Development] Biofall:
I swear to god this is the only post I will make regarding this...

WHO CARES why someone donates?? If you donate to get a beta, so what? If you donate because you love Myn, so what? If you donate because you have extra money, so what?

My point is, since you honestly CANNOT know for sure why someone is donating, then you are making ASSUMPTIONS. There is no argument to this.

It's actually none of your business how other people spend their money, and by god if someone wants to donate to charity to recieve a tax deduction, then good for them, high taxes hurt AND the charity wins.

Please for the love of goodness mind your own business about donating. No one "should" donate to Myn, and no one "has" to. It's a personal choice for whatever reason a person wants.

Risking sounding childish, I said my peace and I will say no more on the issue, no matter what, so have at me, as I'm sure many will.

Even as I hit "Submit Reply" I feel terrible for the potential clutter I am adding..

[EVO 4G Android Development] edboston:
Well, I don't know about others, but for me, when going through this forum, it feels like a general EVO support forum. The thing we have in common being Myn's ROM. So I can understand people posting in here about general question as what they want to do may effect how the ROM works. There have been several times I have started to ask questions like that in here myself. Again, for my self, most of those "off topic" messages don't really bother me. I have learned a lot from those myself.
[EVO 4G Android Development] edboston:
And totally unneeded. Myn gets an email with all that information. To me, posting you donated in the forums is a , "Hey, look at me! I sent him money. Ain't I great" type of post. A donation should be between the person giving the money and the one getting it. There is no need to tell everyone else what you did.

[/rant]
[EVO 4G Android Development] aburgthing:
Well here's a query for ya to pass some time; I don't see the answer in this thread anyway. I did read some info on the subject but it seems dated. What can be safely removed/deleted in TB from the ROM. I ask because I use various substitute apps to perform basic functions. For instance, I use Handcent (despite the warnings) for SMS/MMS. Can I delete HTC Message Uploader (I get two notifications for texts)? I use K9 for email. Can I delete the Gmail app. Can I just delete HTC Sense. I'd like to go as bare bones as possible because I like the functionality of the different Market apps to carry out built in functions. I have frozen some in TB but they are like zombies and keep reloading themselves. What else is routinely ditched by the Non-sense (pardon the pun) crowd? I did mess around in there with one of my first flashed ROMS and screwed the pooch with bootloops and force closes; had to Nandroid back. Others that routinely come back, HTC Clock (I use Simi), Open Sense Pulgin Manager, Weather Provider (HTC Corp.), HTC Media Uploader, HTC weather snc provider, HTC Widget Download Manager, HTC Checkin Service, Updater, and what about the com.android.provider.applicatio, com.htc.provider.settings, com.htc.socialnetwork.provider, HTC weather sync provider, HTC DM, Google Partner Setup? After a re-boot, I go back in and shut a lot of that stuff down, but if I look later on, most still come back on their own.

Also is the 4G issue fixed in 3.70 so a reboot is not required after using 4G to stop it from scanning?
[EVO 4G Android Development] fixxxer2008:
anybody know what changes we may see in rls5?
[EVO 4G Android Development] philburkhardt:
I think a lot of the things you are wanting to remove are necessary for your phone to function properly. This is a sense based ROM. I believe the goal here was to make sense better, not remove it.

For the messaging app, you don't need to get multiple notifications if you are using Handcent. Just turn off the notifications in the stock messaging app.

When I first rooted my EVO, I removed a lot of those HTC system apps and it caused a lot of instability in my phone. Also, just for fun, I flashed Calk's remove sense mod over Myn's once. Phone wouldn't get past the white EVO screen.

I personally don't have any issues with 4G.
[EVO 4G Android Development] devnulldroid:
Got one person saying yes and another saying no so far. :confused: Both using MS131 kernel

well to be fair, (and correct me if i'm wrong) i don't think people use their same names on here with paypal, so even if myn gets an e-mail, he might not know who the specific user is. and i know they can always PM but some members don't like receiving PMs or their PM inbox might be full. like i said, correct me if i'm wrong because i don't know how the donate button works.

anyway, i hope everyone has a merry christmas. i know it's only christmas eve (and who am i kidding, i'll be sitting here all day tomorrow too, checking on the updates), but just thought i'd get it out of the way.

thanks, myn, for a great rom. yours is the first rom i put on my phone and the only rom i use. yours is the first rom that made me go, "hmmm! wow ok, now where are those instructions on how to root because i need to get this rom..."
[EVO 4G Android Development] makojr:
Hello, my post is actually for Myn. I wanted to say, thank you so much for the Rom! You have done so much to the Rom that I could not see myself going to any other one. I've tried a few, but always ended up coming back to warm rls 4. I have also recommended you r Rom to a few friends, who also love it just as much as I do! I soon hope to upgrade to current 3.70 Ota for swype and launcher pro to 0.8.2 soon. I was on 3.70 for five minutes and I couldn't do leave your themed launcher pro behind for the current one. That is howe much I love your rls 4. ;p

Also I want to thank everyone on xda who post a lot of info that I used ever since subscribing to xda. There are so many, sorry I have no names..lol. Everyone is so great to help everyone that I have learned so much from everyone!
[EVO 4G Android Development] edboston:
Since he sends the invite/link for the the beta to the email address you paid with, doesn't really matter if he has the user name. But if the person donates wants to let them know who donates, send a PM and keep the forum clear.

Again, just my feelings on it.

Well, I think I have been fairly warned to stay off the computer until after Christmas, so just wanted to wish everyone a happy Holiday.
