XIP Porting GUIDE!!!! - Page 4

wow. i have been following this thread from xda-developers, and glad to see that we finally have a somewhat thorough tut on porting xip (i also do acknowledge that gguruusa has already made tut with the steps, although not for newbs). i do not blame boggsie for folding the towel on trying to make the tut. this stuff is complex! i commend everyone who has learned this, fayfay, sbr l3gion et al, and the ones who have assisted in teaching lennysh, gguruusa, dcd, vetvito, rstoyguy, et al.

i will attempt to understand all of this soon, and hopefully will be able to contribute as well! THANK YOU EVERYONE!

Erm, even after being called out he said his only sources were two threads on xda.

chill we didnt ask for your childish moment. i have no plan on defending myself to you nor stooping to your level of ignorant babel. we are workingto help out the community to give them more options and we have gotten so far is destructive criticism. this place is a wealth of knowledge that is open to everyone and people like you are why we leave.

Your method may work, but there's no guarantee it will work. Hence, it isn't the advised way of finding it.

do you have the link? i would like to read more about this method

i commend you for seeing all this and still deciding to continue on with this memebers like this are what ppcgeeks thrives on the ones whos desire is to learn and help the community that has helped them so much not the members who are in their own mind god of the ppc realm. i will never claim on knowing to much about this because i am far from knowing anything that i want to know but i am still willing to try my hardest to learn. all i have to say is we need memebers who are more concerned with the community than the credit that they get.

Well, no. The credit thing was commented on because it is simply ludicrous that fayfay post a guide when he couldn't follow personalized instructions from DCD, then posted like he was a xip porting master at xda after having spoken w/ LennySh, then got exposed as not having a clue what LennySh had actually done while holding his hand. To top it off, after he knows that two very good guides were create and posted in the last week here and at xda, he comes here and posts instructions on a process he STILL doesn't understand. He got called a tool because he has demonstrated himself to be one.

Fayfay is one of those ego people. This thread wasn't started because he wanted to share info, it was started so he could get some glory. If all he wanted to do was help you out, he could have done that by simply saying "here's a link to the steps" or "here's what LennySh had me do". I'm pretty sure I could have typed that even at 1AM.

Actually SBR showed me the links, and Lennysh sent me files for the 20273 ALREADY DONE therefore i learned how to add files not how to port. In my tutorial im using a TOTALLY diferent method on porting then i was showed. How am i after my ego if i posted a guide that was easy to understand to help SBR out are you kidding me? Your like a little kid trying to point fingers now. Yall are a bunch of childish ego hungry people. I am VERY sorry for trying to help a friend out and possibly others. How are you going to tell me i dont understand something have u physically seen me not do it. I can port an XIP in 10 minutes now. Your a the "tool" and need to get a life and revevaluate your ego.GET A LIFE. Im deleting this as apparantly im ego hungry. DEFINTION TIME: Ego hungry: (as defined by guru)- helping a friend out who doesnt understand something as well as you do.
Have a good one.

ok i have a solution to this how bout we get off the bashing and turn this into a help line since there are so many experienced members there should be a help line this would be the perfect place im done with the flaming in all honesty everyone opinnion has been spoken well everyones that pertains to this subject. we should all move on with our lives and turn this into a help line for questions and answers about xip. we can have a mod get rid of all the flaming posts and turn this into a good thread.

You're not seriously going to try and demonstrate your xip porting mastery to me a second time, are you? I read your instructions - I can infer what you know and where you learned from that. Trust me, you don't know what you're talking about and the only xip you could port is a trivial one.
