Guys I just got back for the Cleveland Clinic We were there for about 5 hours.
So I need to get caught up.
Here's my take on this. I think noob is an amazing developer. He began everything for the epic. That said , I think they are both right. Everyone knows that memory wears out and logic would dictate that the more you write the faster it will wear or more likely it will fail. However, I kinda of feel like noob was crying fire in a crowed theater. Not saying he's wrong but I mean it could have been handled better. He makes these vague statements and then leaves. I think he meant wel but I think this has been blown way out of proportion.
I think that most of us will not see any problems from this. We cycle phones at least every 2 years. Dameon has done a great job in making thins happen for us. Some of us will even brick them (cough cough Darren cough cough) but really, how hard is it to get replaced. I think sometimes we get caught up in this whole smart phone thing that we forget that they are only phones.
So unless and until there is any concrete info to state otherwise I will continue to enjoy the performance boost of EXT4.
The bigger issue for me right now it the move to edify. This is a really big change. I'm not a gifted coder at all but once the transition is through we will all be better for it.
Now that said, I have completed v2.6 and it's ready for release. Everyone needs to understand that by doing this all of the current zips will not work. Everything will have to be remade to work with edify. I don't think it's that big of a deal but I don't want people to flash cw3 and then flash v2.6 and then send me tons of messages that their zips don't work. This is a big change and you need to understand what you are doing prior to doing this.
I have the rom and have been using it all day. I used to GPS to get to our appointment today without any problems. Everything works great and the new cw3 is really much nicer then what we are currently using.
So if anyone is ready to take the plunge then you should go ahead and flash cw3 and get ready cause once I get the kids in bed I will post the links.
Please read this
thread very carefully. I'm very serious about this you need to read the thread. I will post the links in about an hour or so. PLease educate yourselves in the meantime and be ready to flash v2.6 later tonight.
While I am beyond grateful for the success of the midNIGHT ROM the sheer volume of people using it was not planned for. I try my best to support as many people as possible. I receive tons of messages for help and I am more then happy to assist. BUt I can already see that an update like this will undoubtedly bring the noobs out of the woodwork. And that's totally cool cause I want everyone that want's to use this rom to be able to do so. But please read about the edify update and please don't bombard me with questions about your zips no longer working. It really is a pretty smooth transition we will have to repopulate the community with compatible zips. That's really the long and short of it. Be aware the this requires EXT4. So I will most likely phase out RFS development simply because they can no longer coexist with edify and clockwork3. CW3 will auto convert to EXT4.
I can't wait to get this up for you guys, so in the mean time please read and get CW3 installed.
I do have 2 themes edify ready as well.....I will work on some apps tonight.
