Do we all really need to post a full disclaimer detailing every code fragment and list credits for every item like the credits at the end of a movie?

Robmayer is just trying to help the masses and keep the noobs off the backs of others.

My thanks go to EVERYONE helping out here and on other sites.

second, i think WE ALL know and agree that anything we flash or do with these phones is our liable fault..
It IS BEING REVIEWED.

third, have you not thought that maybe he wanted to take the flack if the bootloader fix didnt work?? If he had mentioned "the inside guys" as being the creators, and it ended up not working everyone in the world would be on you guys backs.. instead he lightly mentions a thanks to those who helped with the fix, and posted it up.. knowing if it didnt work people would be ringing on robs doorbell and not yours.. All im saying, is maybe he was looking out for you.
IT IS BEING REVIEWED.

forth, everyone needs to CALM the F*** down and work together to get this ball rolling forward.

I mean seriously, thats the beauty of these forums and you guys work... we have options. We got the stock helmi rom, we got an unofficial kitchen and we have a super stripped down rom.. I think its great people are eleborating on others projects in the mean time of a "finalized kitchen"

I also know that the written word isn't the same as us all sitting in a room together giving credit where credit is due. HOWEVER, in all of the posts I've seen from Robmayer, he was giving credit. Now granted I'm not privvy to the chat room chat, but he's apologized, posted it ... so let's all move on.

Isn't the purpose of all of this to make a good device better? I don't see any blatant "plagarism" here... what is see as a noob and an outside is some ego's getting in the way.

I wonder if Bill Gates gets his nose hairs all twisted with someone tries to make his products better.....

Let's all work together... hell if you read some of the posts, we're all violating MS licensing policy by doing ANYTHING to our devices.

let's get back to doing what we all do best... Helmi, Luv2chill, tiermann, colonel, robmayer, kirvin et al and the rest of the devs making our device better and we lowly noobs, using your tweaks.

I love you guys.. Come on -- come give me a big hug!!!!

I can attest to it working with bootloader v 1.00 and Vista with the Vista RUU workaround (googled and found on Modaco's site - dam another forum I just joined LOL).

The fact that it never hit the ExtROM customization was awesome - I was all poised to soft reset before it hit them.

I have about 40MB free after this ROM installed. It also seems to run pretty fast.

Only issue I experienced was that the hard reset didn't take at first... thing booted in and then I saw my iphone theme pop up... did another hardreset and it took. I think I fat fingered the 1st hard reset.

UGH.. now re-installing all my customizations.

Thanks RobMayer... and the rest of the dev guys here... my g/f asks me constantly why she can't reach me on my phone.. and I tell her "I'm flashing it again, with something cool from PPCGeeks"... she thinks I'm nuts.
Haha, you guys are awesome! Some of these posts definitely got right to the point and even with some added humor.

GameDoctor, I really appreciate you jumping on the boat! Much appreciated!

Torx, I knew you would be right here man. Well said bro!

Daveedem, wow... finally somebody gets it. The part about the MS licensing policy... you said it for me! That is the truest of things and everybody needs to realize that. Plus, if MS really cracked down... none of this would be going on, period.

Well, before you start I will warn you that flashing the radio means "hard-reset" afterwards. Sooo... I have the radio packaged up in my downloads section here: http://6700development.googlepages.com/Downloads it should be near the bottom under the roms. Download it and flash it like a normal rom.
