here's a question that relates. if i were to donate to this hard worked on rom, whom would i donate to?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] cheez99:
http://www.cyanogenmod.com/

Very bottom right of the page.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] AdhvanIt:
Any of thefine gentlemen that support our device. I believe slayher is person of choice for pons, as he seems to be the most active CM supporter for the Incredible.

Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.

[Droid Incredible Android Development] cheez99:
Oh boo ****ing hoo. This amazing team of devs brings you this amazing ROM at NO COST TO YOU. You have no right to complain about anything.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] dbjr11:
Couldn't have said it better myself. If you think you can do better,go ahead.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] MedleHed:
Do you understand what busting chops is? It is in good fun. And if you think what I said is complaining you are a complete jackass and an absolute moron.

Edit: cheez99....complete jackass and absolute moron.....I like that, but I wonder if cheez will understand that it's not that serious.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] MedleHed:
I think this guy got my joke.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] MedleHed:
You are apparently a jackass too.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] dbjr11:
If you're joking around that's fine. Just making sure you're not trying to order a whamburger and some frenchcries before the whambulance picks you up. J/K. Just busting you're chops buddy.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] kioshi:
Funny...im reading a bunch of garbage in these last 2 pages.....

anywho, how are the mounting issues on build 13? Do we need to have apps on phone memory to mount or not? Battery life with browser and youtube viewing?.....
[Droid Incredible Android Development] MedleHed:
This, I like. If we can't bust chops while the build bot is on vacation, what can we do?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] samoid:
I hope your not sober. Calling people names in this community is beyond pointless. Not to mention immature.

There is nothing wrong with people defending those who put hard work into these roms. If they misunderstood you, a polite correction would do.

Were all here for the same reasons. Sit back, relax, and enjoy the tinkering.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] v941726:
already did for his kernels. tested for them out of the gate. again, this is a community project it seems and it is the way it should be. kind of sorry i asked.

i was against CM for a while cuz i didn't think it could gel cuz of all involved. but i was wrong. so lets just let it go and enjoy it.

i will check your link and go from there
[Droid Incredible Android Development] MedleHed:
Technically there is no build 13. And what I recommend with the nightlies (it has worked 100% for me) when you flash a new rom whether it is a new nightly or a rom other than CM7 uninstall your phone's drivers on your computer.

This will result in new drivers being installed when you connect your phone and in my experience USB mounting will work every time.

Please let me know if this does not work for you.

I have had several problems with USB mounting locking up my phone, but since following this rule I have had zero problems.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] MedleHed:
Duly noted. Thanks for all your help.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] MedleHed:
But telling someone they are a joke or saying boo ****ing hoo is ok right? If they aren't going to politely ask me if I'm joking I am not going to politely respond to their retorts.

It's ok, don't cry.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] v941726:
your right. and i'm quite certain everyone knows. and your reminder probably needs to be said now and then. crackflashing should be 2 words. lol
[Droid Incredible Android Development] kioshi:
Thank you sir. I will try that after eating dinner (yes, 11:30pm dinner is how i do it).

Im not a fan of carrying multiple things for multiple tasks, so i transfer files between other peoples computers (i use my phone to hold cad drawings, cam files and other design files for school)....therefore seems kind of tedious or a nuisance to have someone ekse uninstall drivers on their computer haha...

Ill report back for my laptop soon.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] MedleHed:
I can see how that might be a nuisance. In that situation I email the files to one of my POP3 email accounts and never have to hook my phone to customers computers.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] kioshi:
I'm a total newbie on windows 7. Where would i find the drivers installed for Incredible mounting?

I looked under where you uninstall programs, but no luck there.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] cheez99:
Click start, run, then type in devmgmt.msc and run it. Should show up under Portable Devices and Disk Drives, I believe. Right click the device, and click Uninstall.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] MedleHed:
With your phone plugged in, click the start Orb on the bottom left, then right click computer and select manage.

Click device manager then expand Android USB Devices. Right click My HTC and select uninstall. Reboot your computer and the drivers will reinstall.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] kioshi:
I uninstalled drive "f","h", and "i".

BEFORE DOING ALL THAT...i thought i would plug in phone one more time and try to mount. An error popped up saying if i wanted to repair H drive (SD card drive)....so i did that. And now, i unmounted and mounted 5 times ..and each time the sd card portion has mounted successfully...

THANK YOU Medlehed and cheez99.

Thank you for your suggestion slayer, even though i put it as last priority after the above two people :P

Hmm all i see is Android Phone..which i expand and it shows "Android Composite ADB Interface"...I dont think i want to uninstall that, correct? As i remember installing that prior to rooting my Incredible.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] MedleHed:
This is what I see. May be different than your computer.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Rom-Addict:
Can't u right click and check drivers?then update?

sent from dinc
[Droid Incredible Android Development] cheez99:
No, simply checking the properties will probably just say the device is working. Can't really explain why, but uninstalling and reinstalling drivers cures a lot of issues with different pieces of hardware sometimes.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Rom-Addict:
Mine says update + uninstall drivers

sent from dinc
[Droid Incredible Android Development] MedleHed:
The driver doesn't update. It's the same driver, but it gets reinstalled. I don't know why this is necessary or why it works. I just know it works for me.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Rom-Addict:
Sorry i thought u could also uninstall from there too

sent from dinc
[Droid Incredible Android Development] MedleHed:
My driver version. It is the same every time as far as I remember, but reinstalling it seems to help.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] kioshi:
Yeah its different from mine. How did you root your phone, or what root did you use? I followed instructions for Unrevoked 3...and their setup gives me different from your attached image. lol..oh well.

Unmounted and mounted 4 more times just now...sd card seems to be mounting correctly....

i dont know why it was freezing up and going into honeycomb boot animation 10x or so...then only recognizing internal phone driver only.

All is well...for the time being. Thanks once more you guys.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] MedleHed:
I rooted with unrevoked, but it was a while ago and I can't remember the version number.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] kioshi:
I see. No worries.

SD card froze again during mount...though, i uninstalled drivers...but have yet to reboot laptop as Im downloading a file for solidworks.

I'll find out tomorrow morning...
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ProTekk:
Ok, I'm not even going to begin to quote these last 5 pages from all of you and all the petty bull**** you're all pulling.

I've seen this crap before on other sites and you guys really want to bring it here and flame each other?

Yes, I know this thread has kind of been derailed since the nightlies haven't been produced "nightly" but it has been a MOSTLY productive thread. Don't kill a good thing.

With all you *****ing and moaning about "ZOMG HOW DOES TEH ANDROID WORX AND HAZ MONEYZ?!?": Don't worry. It has little to no meaning to you. If it did, you'd understand already. Believe me.

Next, all you *****ing about nightlies not being churned out quick enough or not at all? Shut the **** up and deal with it. Besides the fact that these developers for this ROM all have LIVES and are PARENTS or just living their lives. **** off to the ones have the balls to ***** about that.

I promised that I'd help out and start churning out my own builds for us all and that I'd post them here. I'm starting to wonder if it is even worth my time or effort because I don't need to deal with an angry mob of people doling out e-rage to make their e-peen harder.

I will be compiling the next build shortly but please tell me if it'll be worth it or not.

Oh, also, I'm 19, recently unemployed, can't afford college but I have a life and it is not based around how many and how quick my builds are.

Now, can we get back to being a productive group or are we all going to flame and rage and make ourselves and this group look like a bunch of self-righteous bastards?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] miatamx:
+1 I totally agree.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] v941726:
i may be jumping in here, but what did i miss? what is wrong? why would you uninstall. if you have win 7 the drivers will be ready when you plug it in. unplug and you wont see it in device mangler(windows speak).
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ProTekk:
At least someone can agree. I really don't know about the rest of the population of this forum. I'll probably get flamed for my post or a million people will post "reasons" for their actions. Sorry, you can't justify that kind of attitude that they've been giving to the team for something that doesn't cost them a penny. Not one dev I've seen on any boards here has asked for anything in return except if you like what they put out they accept donations to help support them.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] v941726:
you don't. just plug it in
[Droid Incredible Android Development] v941726:
what ver of clockwork mod do you have? are trying to root?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] v941726:
here here. a toast to you. well said. i hope you read between my lines.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] v941726:
i'm with you. i thought that was what i was trying to say. maybe donations should go to you
[Droid Incredible Android Development] v941726:
if you get flamed, f" them. a 19 yr old super geek with something to prove is cheers to me. :)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ProTekk:
I'll be honest. That would be nice but I'm not going to publicly post I want donations. I know first hand how appreciated donations are and if there is something I like out there I give what I can.

What the ignorant can't see is that not only do the developers give just there time, they donate their hardware, electricity, and sanity to the project.

Now, I have no issue running my servers to compile builds and such but in reality there is a price that I in the end have to pay and donations can help keep it alive.

Even if CyanogenMod 7 gets solidified and there's no more nightlies and no more RC's, I'm going to be supporting other projects.

Just for what open-source truly means I am willing to help developers out and keep them wanting to build for our phones. Android isn't about half the crap that some of these people are out there *****ing about and they don't realise it.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] miatamx:
just fyi

I don't see where any phones got new builds yet. Instead of complaing I'm sure there other things we could do while we wait. We do have people willing to build new builds an some of you can do their own. I'm not one of these people so I just wait like the rest of you and don't complain. Its not like the next build is going to be life altering.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] v941726:
i think the majority knows this. what i see is people attacking each other. i've been with this thread from the start and wow!

if i could do it i would. you need help with something i know and you dont, i wouldnt hesitate. almost everything i do is for free to help people. i like it.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ProTekk:
Unofficial build #14 on its way.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] v941726:
i was trying to say something like this. and somewhere i was trying to say we are fortunate to have young "geeks" like pro-tekk to fill in.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ProTekk:
Build #14 is now done and uploading now.

[Droid Incredible Android Development] RoboRay:
If the drama queens would stop misinterpreting any question or comment that's not pure glowing praise into "complaints" or "insults" the rest of us wouldn't have to wade through nearly as much BS.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ProTekk:
Just go download #14 and flash damn it! xD

Just messing with ya but seriously, I can only imagine this place if it was a bar or something like that. Wait, now it just came to me! This IS like a bar as far as insults and raging goes! You're all drunks! :p
[Droid Incredible Android Development] v941726:
your 19 and cant afford college? trust me, you can. look harder. you need to
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ProTekk:
I'll try to make this a short story.

Mom had an affair with another guy while married. Got pregnant. Had me. Lost her marriage and both men. I was a reminder. Abandoned me at 3 months old. Grandparents (who are actually my 3rd cousins) took me in. They are 77 and 74 respectively. Both lost their jobs. Both made under 20k a year. Never legally adopted me and never legally became my guardians.

College time comes around, apply for financial aid, got denied. Why? Because of the legal BS. They don't care about the tax info of the people who have taken care of me for 19 years. They demand that I find either one of my birth parents and get their tax info so the school can determine whether or not they make enough to support my schooling. Now, not going to dig up skeletons and make contact with her. I closed that door with my mother 4 years ago, not worth it.

I have an interview for a large company coming up as a network and database technician and if I score that they are going to pay for my schooling :D

But yes, at the moment I can't afford school. Loans? Of course I can do that but I don't want to be paying it off for the rest of my life. I've seen my caretakers go through all kinds of debt and I don't want to go through that.

Good news is that I've saved up enough money to take at least one course over the summer!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] v941726:
if you think you cant afford it, your better off than the many. you can if you want. i did taxes and finance too. your golden. you can get more money for college than you can imagine. all you need is the will.

oh. and knowing exactly what you want
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ProTekk:
Completely off-topic: Going to pick up my reserved copy of Pokemon White now! xDDD

I love going back to my childhood garbage ^_^

Back on topic: Build #14 is up. Look on the previous page. Let me know how it runs. I'll try to get a lot more worked on today as far as automating this entire cycle. If anyone here has any experience running and configuring buildbot on Debian systems please let me know! That'd make my life so much easier for this!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] v941726:
it is, isnt it. sometimes its fun to watch. thanks for the work you did this a.m. especially with your hangover. hehe. a bar would be better. at least we would be able to see the aholes we were fighting with. :)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] v941726:
whats debian? :) thanks man
[Droid Incredible Android Development] bobby janow:
Doing it right now, thanks. If you name the nightlies correctly I just might throw you a few bucks. haha, just messin' with ya. If this thing boots, you got yourself some beer money.

Edit: Money sent
[Droid Incredible Android Development] MedleHed:
This was a joke....

Some people got it. Most people didn't. If you think for a second that I'm flaming the people responsible for making CM7 you are out of your mind.

I was actually trying to make light of the fact that most of the people posting lately are going nuts over the fact that builds aren't coming out fast enough.

Some of you have even taken to compiling the OS yourself because you just can't wait....

Get over yourself people. Your warranty is void and so is your sense of humor.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] MedleHed:
I uninstall my device drivers and reinstall them so USB mounting will work every time. This is less of a ROM issue than most people think.

It is my opinion that constant flashing somehow confuses our computers and makes our phones lock up when we use USB storage.

For me, uninstalling the phones drivers from my cpu prevents my phone from ever locking up when I need to use USB storage. Windows simply reinstalls the drivers the next time I connect the phone.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] MedleHed:
Debian is a Linux OS.

[Droid Incredible Android Development] atpa8a:
Don't know about buildbot but I'll be testing Hudson for automated CM builds tonight. I don't have hardware to run nightly builds or host downloads tho.

Will post the results.

[Droid Incredible Android Development] sunder74:
Same here. I still look at my G1 in awe sometimes thinking of how long he kept that little Guy viable past its "shelf life". And its been the same for almost every supported device since. Oh and for those that didn't know the GeekPhone is shipping with CWM and a one click upgrade to CM. :) oh how far we've come lol.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] MedleHed:
Can we call this build ProTekk #2? It's not build #14, but some other build in a parallel universe....
[Droid Incredible Android Development] slayher:
Alright, alot going on here. Lets clear a couple things up.

1. Nightly builds are optional. No where near required. Nightly builds are a beta test that gets released early. Its not possible for us the devs and maintainers to test every little aspect of the ROM. So we release nightlys to get some input/test the waters of the new stuff getting integrated. This is why you only see bug reports being accepted for RC's (aka rc1).

2. Part of the reason Build Bot died and nightlys aren't being pumped out religiously is due to the shear number of devices we build for now. The build bot could not maintain a connection to the server and was failing miserably. Alot of work went into getting it fixed, and is still being looked at.

3. If you look at review.cyanogenmod.com you will notice merges are happening alot slower now. Most stuff now is translations, and a few device specific fixes, and maybe a bug fix here or there. For most of us, nightly builds at this point would be the same for a few days anyway.

4. Everyone that is part of the CM team, has other **** too, full time jobs, families, hell I myself have 5 kids, a pregnant wife and am in the military. I cant tell you the amount of times I have been in hot water with the wife, trying to get fixes/new kernels/etc out to gerrit, and ultimately you guys. (<-This used to be a daily basis btw)

5. Remember what your phone is for ;) . Its for entertainment, phone calls (? wtf is that right?) Txts, pictures, video, the list goes on. Its nice for it to be like xmas morning waiting to see what new features you get to unwrap, but between builds/releases enjoy your phone!

6. Try to keep in mind how awesome CM is. To give some perspective, think about how many devs/roms/whatever they are "require" donations for early builds or "subscriber" builds. If you want beta it requires a $5 donation. And then also notice how many of those guys use CM as the base, whether they admit it or not. :D

I guess the overall point here is, enjoy your phone, and xmas will come eventually. Waiting a day or 2 more for a build is not going to kill you. :P BTW you guys flash 5 times more than I do lol. And I am the one trying to get the DINC fully functional haha!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] MedleHed:
I agree completely, but let's not forget the people using this ROM like I do are in fact giving free labor to test the features and provide feedback to the CM7 team. In addition to that users like myself spend a lot of time helping other CM7 users to take some load off of the developers backs.

The users also have full time jobs and responsibilities that are neglected because we are testing CM7.

Edit: I hope this isn't misunderstood. I'm not trying to argue. I'm trying to agree.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ProTekk:
Thank you! I really do appreciate it and every little bit does help out.

That's a good idea but I wouldn't feel right posting it in here. Maybe I should start a new thread?

Off-topic: Got Pokemon White and got my Celebi from Game Stop :p
[Droid Incredible Android Development] drPheta:
ProTekk, thanks for the build. loading it now.

What will happen when the CM build bot gets back online, or puts out another Nightly? How are we going to know what's more recent in terms of features? Protekk sort of at "nightly 14", but when CM7 puts out a real nightly 13 or 14 will it be similar to ProTekk's?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] FramCire:
Can I suggest you ask a friend to read your posts. They read as argumentative not humorous. You may mean them one way, but I think they read very differently.

Unfortunately, most people can't read their own posts and see how they come off. (I know I can't).

I love CM7, and have flashed every build since before nightlies with buildbot. While I have tremors when builds don't come daily, it is best not to "bust chops"with people you don't have a report with. I once got fired from a job for it, lesson learned.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ProTekk:
My builds are exactly the same as what is on the CyanogenMod repository. If the CM7 team pushes out major updates I will build another. I plan to keep this as up to date as possible even if it means multiple builds a day.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Heathsrow:
Thanks and Gratitude for your service!!!

Slayher, I thank you for your service to our lovely Nation and to the dinc community...I can not thank you enough for both!!!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] x2kjosh:
4 is so true. I get that building my app a lot to the point I have to put it down and walk away so all are happy. Anyways thanks for the hard work. I'd never use another rom again.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] rcdeck:
Agreed.. thank you and the entire CM team, all the testers and users for making this ROM what it is today and making it so popular so it can keep going!
