over the years, LOTS of devs have made it clear that asking for ETA's, and asking other obnoxious questions cause them to either stop developing, or, not publicly release their products..those of us who have been modding phones for a long time, understand this, and respect dev's wishes about this..

Also, they do NOT want this ignorant banter to take place in their DEV threads; thats why there is a "GENERAL" area on this board, to post NON DEVELOPEMENT discussions

The ones here, who continually ask, whine, and complain about about long release waits RUIN it for everyone...

I apologize to Scott for posting this in the Dev thread; ALL of this BS belongs in the discussion thread...

Because of the mantra. Everyone wants to be the xda bodyguard. Thinking that if they get bent out of shape because someone is breaking the rules, they'll get noticed, the skies will open up and they will be touched by the mobility gods. "Your good deeds have been noticed my child." Pitiful.

I don't think that's the case at all. It's just annoying when a dev specifically says this thread is for development discussion and please do not ask for ETAs and people can't use the friggin' discussion thread for stupid **** & NOT ASK FOR ETAs.

It's two simple requests. Some of us actually respect Scott and the very little he's asked for. I would never want to be a mod here, if I was about half of the member base would be immediately IP banned because there are some seriously childish and annoying people here (not you persay).

I dont understand why people get so bothered by people asking about etas. If the dev wants to answer with one they can. If not, then they should just ignore the impatience. Very simple.

I'm sorry - let's ask you for an ETA on when you'll poop the next time...

I've said this before, and I will say it again. You need to read and understand the XDA Mantra. No matter what you want to think/believe/contrive, XDA-Developers does not exist for you to ask when a new update to your FREE ROM is coming. XDA-Developers always has been and always will be for the Developers.

Let's break this down a little bit here - XDA is....
  • XDA is a developers site
  • XDA is a free forum you are ALLOWED to use. We could make it invite only
  • XDA is and always will be about the developers. And before you say without the users there would be no XDA, Bull****, who do you think used the stuff before normal people even knew what a smartphone was......wait for it.........other developers. People that could give good feedback with relevant info. Not just "dahhh this is broken, please fix".

XDA is not....
  • XDA is not a place to come and make your phone cool.
  • XDA is not the cool place for idiots to hang out.
  • XDA is not your friends house
  • XDA is not a democracy
  • XDA is not a place to make Money.

Now I think that should clear up anyone else asking about ETAs.... Next person who asks gets a short vacation.

    IMPORTANT NOTES

    This is a experimental Build of the current state of CyanogenMod 9 for the Samsung Epic 4G Touch.
    CM 9 is based on latest AOSP sources plus some usefull tweaks and features.

    CyanogenMod 9 is still under heavy development,
    There are still a lot of settings and features missing, simply be patient.

    If something doesn't work like expected, it's your problem. Don't ask about any fixes.
    These are experimental builds and not meant to used as a daily driver.
    They're only meant for testing!

    Known Issues with this build:
    - Signal bars may not be accurate
    - and I'm sure there are others I'm missing

    Installing CM9 for the first time:
    - Make sure you're running a proper working CWM like the one from CM7
    - Boot into Recovery
    - Flash CM9 zip
    - Flash Gapps
    - DO A DATA WIPE / FACTORY RESET (otherwise your calendar sync will not work) DO NOT WIIPE SYSTEM or the assert script will fail
    - Reboot
    - Don't restore Apps using Titanium Backup!

    Updating from a previous build:
    - Copy CM9 ZIP to your internal SDCard
    - Boot into Recovery
    - Flash CM9 zip
    - Flash Gapps
    - Wipe cache partition
    - Reboot

    Notes about flashing:
    Make sure /system is NOT mounted when you flash this and DO NOT wipe system. The assert script checks you existing build.prop to make sure you are flashing this on the correct device :)
