Everyone is entitled to their own opinions and that is what the thread voting and rating system is intended for. BUT there is a very small handful of members here that need to learn to show some respect! Life isn't perfect and neither is each and every custom ROM. Those who down rate a ROM thread because they have some technical difficulties are morons!

I have yet to see a ROM thread where the dev does not ask the community to please report any issues you find. So how can anybody be so dumb and down rate just for spite?

Rick, I can totally understand how you must feel to put a ton of pride and effort into this nice custom ROM to have it all crushed by a few idiots who can't see past their own selfish moronic ego's. It's a shame these members can't somehow disappear and take their ungrateful selves far from this community and never come back! They will surely continue this childish behavior on other ROM threads. This community would be much much better off without this small handful of ungrateful b@$t@rd$!!! Please forgive my French...

Do what you think is best Rick, I totally understand. My advice is to sleep on it a few days and start over... there's always new things coming down the pipes and mabe one day you'll feel better about your much appreciated work. Don't let a couple of dumb punks distract you. We all know your work is at the very top of the list without a doubt. Those couple of spiteful members casting bad votes means nothing to this community. Believe me we ALL know you are the real deal when it comes to your work and awesome support!

a few words

I've been a longtime Lurker who does not post anything but I had to give this man some much needed appreciation. Hands down this Rom is the best that I have tried here. Its silky smooth while maintaining speed and awesome battery life. I really hope he decides to keep developing but I cant fault him for choosing not to. By the way I just donated to you ric. Hope this helps out the coffee fund.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tower1972:
The ONLY issue I had with his 3.0 rom was the tethering. Not the hotspot but the Android tethering. To this day Im not to sure what happened with it as it just quit on me one day. I didnt blame the rom itself if people read my posts, but I also know I sure as hell wouldnt vote someone down (whatever that is actually lol).

My little brother was talked into (by me), into using his 3.1 and he loves it,cept the android tethering is not working for him either. So other then the tethering issues (which im now leaning more towards rom issue, as im now running Mik and its working again flawlessly), his works been pretty awesome.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shiftwig113:
i used to use azreal, but i had to many random reboots after i themed it. then switched to cm6, but i went back to sense because for some reason after a reboot i lose all my themes....its not like all other roms are flawless.

and besides stepping down as a developer doesn't help his case. every person has there own opinion about certain roms, and seriously this thread seems like it was made for babying the developer to come back and make more roms, if he wants to make roms fine but if he doesnt and wants to step down as a developer his loss....just sayin my .02

carry along
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tower1972:
Actually hes got nothing to lose since hes not being paid for his work and will continue to make roms for himself. If he steps down its going to be a loss for people who also love his roms and a loss to the community since thats one less option we have

I see your .02 and raise you a big shiny quarter :P

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tower1972:
well I do have to admit that once I noticed that the Android Tether issue was appearing with more people I went to Miks rom. I just went back to Az's thread since ive not been there in a few days and noticed that he has tracked down the cause of the tether not working, which I will pass along to my brother whos on 3.1

As for me, I loved having all that free delicious storage space this rom provided, so I might go back one of these days, IF its still around :)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Smidgers:
When I first rooted my phone, I flashed a lot of roms. I eventually got stuck on miui because of the unmatched speed. Then I found azrael. Azrael is by far the best sense rom I have tried. It is amazingly fast, very light and I had great battery with the stock and kings kernels. I have since moved on to another rom that fits my needs slightly better, but never had an issue with azrael (including tether). If my current rom was unavailable, I'd go back to azrael in a heartbeat. I've always followed his thread to see how he it's improving his rom and waiting for the right things to come back. Best of luck to you rick if you do decide to discontinue.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jbcarrera:
Rick has been My Fave Dev since i flashed Azrael 2.0 way back when. coming from fresh rom that i thought was awesome as well i couldn't find a sense rom that matched the speed of Azrael in everyday use! I had flashed fresh, myn's, cm, burnt droid, and cm and I always find my self coming back to Azrael. I know people love myn's but i found it buggy maybe not now but it was when I first flashed it, I kept getting fc's on sense with myn's and it slowed my phone down, Fresh was and still is well built but i found it just a bit slow. as for the others i didn't like them for different reasons but fresh and myn's were the ones I ran the longest besides Azrael. I hope that Rick doesn't quit I don't want to go to another rom and I was looking foward to what Rick was going to do with sense Gingerbread now i have to wait and see if this will happen. smh as i said in the Azrael Thread its starting to look like the epic forum in here and i'm not liking it.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sullivan7221:
We all feel your pain man! Lol. I was looking forward to.a gingerbread Rom built by Ric as well! It'd be off the hook for sure!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leenypost:
Don't leave Rick.... I've tried all the ROMS and yours is the best for me.... Heck, it was you that inspired me to start learning how to create my own ROMS which I have came a long way in...

If you quit now... I will no longer have a ROM that I know I can flash for extreme reliability and a nice look always.... Heck, I think I might quit too then...

Someone get me an RUU :mad:
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jstalford:
AZ 3.0 Was the first Rom I flashed after I rooted over new years. I went back and forth between Mik and Ava and decided to stick with Az. It was very smooth and never gave me any problems (other than tether). Then I switched to 3.1 and was just as happy, but wanted to try out others.

Since then I've been on Myn RLS5, Mik 4.3, 4.5, Ava Z3, Evio 1.77 and CM6.1.2. I definitely had the least issues with Az and was waiting for an update to switch back, but then found out he was leaving :(.

I will probably end up with CM7 once it's released 4g and Snap v9 comes out, but is still hate to see him leave.

I just don't get why people would want him to use a diff base? What's the point of having tons of options if they all use the same base. I like variety.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] buck1623:
i totally support az roms... been fresh lover since my hero days, but as of late, i been on az and the 2 are the best ive experienced... dont quit, dont let peoples thoughts about using difference bases stop you from supporting your loyal fanbase with good quality built by rick from the ground up roms... keep us on the edge pal...

Not liking sense based Roms may be true for you and many others....but many still prefer it. Its PERSONAL PREFERENCE and thats why we have soooo many Roms to chose from these days. Ive tried several AOSP Roms and prefer Sense Roms still. Maybe one day Ric will release a AOSP Rom, but until then I will stick with what Im using now....Azrael v3.1!!!

Users are losers

Don't let player haters ruin your day. When others can do what you do and better then you got a reason to feel bad if they trash you. But these morons talking trash about your work are only envious.

Dude lite a cigar, grow old, watch your kids become grandparents and then look over at these idiots who "down graded" you as a developer and you'll see that they still cant flash a rom without instructions from you. And that's the truth.

Your roms are superb. There is no need to say more.

Oh wait, yes there is.... Hey losers where's your rom!!!!!????? hahahahaha!!!!!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] havek:
Azrael Roms

Gotta say more. I know of people who have ric's roms and complained that they were buggy and therefore hated the roms and even their phones. Hmm, i thought, we have the same rom and phone and mine is fine. SOOOO, i did them a favor and checked out their EVO's. Turns out they went in and messed with stuff, installed a gazillion apps, had no app killers, downloaded files galore, etc, etc, etc.

I did my tech support on these "buggy" EVO's and voila!!!!! Now, they love their EVO's and Azrael as well. My point is "its not always the rom".

About the wireless tether, man if you never reported it as being "buggy" why are you talking trash about rics roms???!!!! Know that developing is a two way street. Compatibility people!!!! Does not Apple say they will never support Flash because its buggy and yet a million people use it every day!!! Developing is a two way street!!!!

Anybody want dessert, cause i just served you dinner.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coiledwire:
Quality Baked ROM

I'm impressed with Ric's Azrael X 4.0. This ROM works exceptionally well; the changes under the hood with the slight UI tweaks is an excellent combination.

While this ROM doesn't quite have the visual pop as other ROMs, its very reassuring not to have to deal with stability or compatibility issues.

I hope Ric will continue to evolve Azrael or even head into a new direction. I'm confident HTC/Sprint will release Sense 2.0 on Gingerbread (I know, not part of this tread!); hopefully Ric will continue his hobby and dive into that ROM when/if its released.

As for now, I'm going to buy him a few cups of coffee to show my appreciation of his work.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] starplaya93:
I never had the opportunity to try one of his roms, but I have heard very good things about it The fact that he is considering stepping down because of internet trolls pisses me the F off.

Any person who knows absolutely nothing about coding [SHOULD NEVER, UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCE, IN ANY FUKING ALTERNATE UNIVERSE CRITICIZE A DEV FOR THEIR WORK. GIVING FEEDBACK IS ONE THING, BUT SAYING RUDE THINGS TO SOMEONE BUSTING THEIR ASS FOR FREEEEE...YOU ARE SIMPLY THE SCUM OF THE EARTH.

I can continue my rant about trollers on this forum which are much more abundant that just about any other forum i'v been on, but i'd just go on for days.

I'll end with saying that anybody to criticizes somebody over the internet for ANYTHING is a low life and should be beheaded.

We've all done it, no need to point fingers, but as we can see our actions are having consequences. Let's stop the bullsht now and appreciate the devs we have. From Cyanogen to Calkulin to Azrael to konik to anybody that codes. Respect them, show them love, but do not criticize them
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coiledwire:
^^^ +1

These ROMs free. People that reply to these devs like they owe them something should be talked to by the moderators.

If it wasn't for these devs, we'd all be at the feet of the carriers and hardware vendors begging for a 1/10th of the usability that we currently enjoy now.

Brief Description:

This application will allow the user to confirm they have proper root (super user) access and proper busybox install.

Advanced Root Check mode will show, Superuser.apk installation and version, adb shell default user mode, standard su binary locations and permissions, along with root uid/gid. Advanced Busybox Check will show all applets the installed Busybox binary supports. Advanced Root Check and Busybox Check have an email feature allowing results to be easily shared/exported.

Description:

The goal of this application is to provide even the newest Android user with a simple method to check for root access on their phone. This is a very simple application to notify the user whether or not they have properly setup root access and whether or not they have properly installed busybox. For advanced users, this application will provide many more details giving the user greater control and knowledge of their root and busybox installation.

Gaining root access varies based on manufacturer, model, and carrier. Please refer to device specific posts and boards here on XDA or use http://www.google.com to search for the appropriate support areas for your specific rooting needs. Feel free to email me with root guides which have worked!

Pretty neat.

The Busybox checker doesn't work for me though. I launch Titanium Backup, click Problems, it downloads everything and then says Busybox installed. Then I launch Root Checker and it says it's not installed (for Root, it says yes).
[Android Apps and Games] joeykrim:
Titanium Backup installs a local copy of busybox ONLY for Titanium backup to use. It does not install a systemwide busybox, which is the proper way to install it. It would be very hard to look for every specific application's locally installed version of busybox as they are hidden from other apps by default and root access must be obtained to even find them.

Thanks for the feedback. It is a good confirmation to what I had suspected regarding Titantium backup.

Glad to hear root check verifies root correctly!

Released new Version 1.6:

** Added Advanced mode for experienced users

** Added toggle for advanced mode under Options Menu
[Android Apps and Games] Paul22000:
Ahh, I didn't know that it got installed ONLY for Titanium Backup. That makes sense.

How do you install BusyBox for all applications? (I've never actually installed it for any reason other than from within Titanium Backup.)
[Android Apps and Games] joeykrim:
Either use a custom rom, they all generally install busybox correctly, or search the market for BusyBox, an app by Stephen (Stericson), a senior moderator here on XDA, which should install it correctly.

Hope that helps and appreciate your support in using my app!

I have to buy a new screen+digitizer, but on ebay there is a seller selling it for $55 but not for Spain.... The rest of the sellers are for about $90... I know that it's not the cost of the part and pisses me off.... any other place ?
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] ro_explorer:
For SGS you can not replace only the digitizer (unfortunately). The way the SAMOLED screen is glued to the digitizer is making it almost impossible for an end-user, with regular tools, to replace it.

You will have to go for the full screen (digitizer + SAMOLED) which is about $90USD.

Anyway, $90 is still MUCH cheaper than a new phone.

Personal opinion

Hi,

I have tried many ROM till now, infact mostly all the ROMs. The best for my purpose ( since I am a heavy user ) is HyperDroidGingerbreadV1.2.

Benefits:-

1. Tweeked

2. Super Speed

3. Battery saver

4. Nice UI

5. Very responsive.

PS: Do give it a try.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] bergs333:
I suggest you go to the forum and just read. You will find lots of tutorials on how to install and tweak the roms. You will find multiple roms and each has unique features. What I have done, and what I suggest for you, is just tried a bunch of different roms to see what works best for me. Try them all and see what you like the most. Part of the fun of having the HD2 is all the different things you can do with it.
