This is why I will not ever flash a Team Synergy ROM. Its not the first time I seen these rent-a-cops trolling. Policing XDA and other forums about their ROM's. You dont want people to use your stuff dont put it out there. A great DEV finally wants to expand and build his own ROM with the proper credits to others and he gets this crap?


Great job Smokin keep up the good work!

THIS ^ !!(though not all of Team Synergy is like that at all, and there are a good number of well respected guys there Treve included imho)

Getting pretty old real quick around here. Guy from TBolt section just drops in to rain on a guys thread? wtf

It is always nice to ask before, but Treve has stated he doesn't care before long as you credit the work which in reality thats the only thing that should ever be causing a dissagrement. If your work is credited then you shouldn't care, and should be happy for the person that is getting your work out there even more and using it crediting you.
This is opensource guys, thats the beauty of android. dont go all apple on us.

Do work Smokin, good luck to ya, there some rude ones in here but youll find more than enough around here willing to help. just dont let the sour guys ruin it, and hold your ground bud.

LOL. You flash Synergy more often than you think, but this isnt the place for you to cry. Stay on top of THIS rom. The problem has been dealt with by a respectful Dev in Smokin.

GPL does NOT trump respect. Sorry to break it to you folks that are arguing about this.

Smokinl33t sent me a PM & i gave him ziggys contact. Anyone who has a question for ziggy should take it up on the repo boards on ziggy471.com or in our gtalk general chat, hes on usually after 5 eastern. Everyone go back to talking about rom now...
DONATE TO THE EFF Let them know XDA-Developers sent you or you support the cause (https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2011/1...s-legal-threat)

Ziggy puts a lot of work into his kernels and I know for a fact that he doesnt want them released by anyone other than Team Synergy.
And arent kernels supposed to be open source to being with? So whats the GPL For? They are above the GPL? Read here for more info on GPL: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1159522

Anyways... back to the ROM now...

Sorry for interjecting but OP has done nothing wrong. Kernels are open source.

Yeah its only a License Law... no biggie. lol

btw it is impressive how much trolling you must do to have 3k posts in less than half a yr! stick to your Tbolt section man, the dev obvioulsy had it undercontrol and sent the necessary pm's b4 you even chimmed in like the police demanding it be taken down.

I'm done with the bickering, just hate to see people come in and give a guy a tough time when he clearly had taken the necessary steps to start his project. That is not what android is about and some people clearly dont understand that. Its all about OpenSource and making everything better and putting your own touch on stuff thats already been done and tweaked before you. Not demanding you can't use something b/c they dont want their work to be used but by certain people.
Hope thats not the case as Ziggy does some amazing work, and it would be a shame to not have that on display for others to use seeing as how its under GPL anyway.

Anyway good luck to ya Smokin ill be sure to try your stuff out.
