I made it too. There was a problem getting the email verification. Took 2 hours to get the email after I hit resent twice.

Just more appreciation from a HoB Lurker. Been watching and learning for a few weeks now. So much info from a classy bunch. Though I am a 905 holdout, it is only due to the fact that my Bionic is a company phone, that I get to use. I still hold tightly to the knowledge I have obtained from the short time I have been around. Having the Bionic from shortly after release, I have witnessed the trials and tribulations of many. To see the light at the end of the tunnel and actually believe that it is a beautiful device has been a blessing.
Hats off to Sam and the rest of the team that have not given up on what could and WILL be....

Cheers

[SamuriHL]

Thanks everyone. I truly appreciate the support. I'm gonna put out a new version later today but I want to include something that I think many will find somewhat useful I hope.

Long time lurker "over there"...
Not going to comment on the move, as it's obvious from his posts Sam wishes not to dwell on it and simply move on. I, of course, have my opinions, but will keep them to myself...

I watched most of Sam's "36hr brick" scenario unfold in real time, on the edge of my seat. I came back much, much later, interested in what was happening with ICS for the Bionic. I then followed the hidden thread until it was hidden, then the "moot" thread (yes, ALL of it!).
Even though I am still running stock .905 because I know I don't know the details of how to mod my phone well enough to feel comfortable using HoB and I don't want to be "one of those" for Sam to support (and likely get lambasted for being uninformed), I still would like to extend my gratitude to SamuriHL for all he has done for the community. I'd also like to thank sargentmajord for all the information he has been able to provide to those of us starving for any word on what may be happening. While I never did sign up on DF and just lurked there, with these new developments, I thought it would be worthwhile to sign up here so I could not only continue to follow over here, but also maybe even participate. I also wanted to make it known that these two gentlemen are more of an asset to the community than they will likely ever know...

I'd also like to thank the other posters in "moot" for hours of entertainment, excluding, of course, those who were obviously unappreciative (you know who you are...)

Cheers & THANKS,

Thank you. My recommendation to you is to grab the HoB files, install them, with the phone UNPLUGGED, run it. Take a dry run through it. Say N to all the prompts (because the phone is unplugged and you're just testing to see what the process looks like). This will give you a good idea of what you're in for. See what you think. And as long as you've read the FAQ and the OP, I won't give you a hard time. I generally only get pissed when someone makes wrong assumptions that they KNOW what they're doing or people who blatantly haven't read the FAQ. (Do I have to FXZ before... How do I root... What's this HoB thing... etc). If you say "look, I know I'm not very knowledgeable about these things and I genuinely need a hand"....we won't have a problem at all and you'll find I'm very willing to help.

Believe you me Sam is more than wiling to help. I am one of "those" that did read it all and was still a half brained idiot fumbling and bumbling through it and he still helped me! and yes he did "yell at me" .......just a bit

B'leeve sign-up traffic went way up in here today!

He's too honest to be a good politician...

[mjs27541]

Maybe we can pool our resources and stage a hostile takeover of Verizon, install Sam as CEO. Sheah and monkeys might fly out of my butt...

Anoyher office? He's already king of the geeks!

[SamuriHL]

LOL. I have no interest in fame. All I've ever tried to do with the HoB was to give back to a community that I felt has helped me and given me so much. I'm glad so many people find it to be so useful. I sincerely mean that. I feel blessed.

No, but, I'm ready for OTA to get its arse here already...Here's hoping its soon.

[- JPB]

I may give it a go, but tbh, I'm one of the lucky ones that has a fairly stable .905 so I may be willing to wait for OTA instead. I may not, but I may. We'll see.

Thanks for your willingness to support a n00b who's willing to help themselves. I completely understand your stance on this...

[mjs27541]

I have no doubt. Its got to be getting tedious writing HoB updates for ICS leaks that are more than ready to go live.
