[XPERIA X10 General] agentJBM:
I think the idea is good in theory, however I don't see it being as good in practice. First, the devs rarely post anyway. I don't think they also want the responsibility of cleaning their own threads. To be honest, it is usually not the devs complaining about off topic. It's the senior members who have self assigned themselves forum police. I can definitely see something like this getting out of hand or misused.

I think the 10 posts minimum to post in the dev threads is both part of the problem and solution. Now we have noobs posting new threads wherever they can just so they can get a question answered or get their post count up. The problem is that they didn't LEARN anything by that rule. At the end of 10 forced posts they are still wanting an answer to their dev questions, so they post it in a dev thread anyway.

With xRecovery and the increasing ease of modifying your phone, more and more less experienced people are hacking their phones. Those people are inevitably going to have more questions, and the current "devs only" approach leaves them no option but to post in the devs thread.

I think the recent trend of linking a discussion thread to the dev thread is a more feasible and fair way to go. It would be better if somehow xda could link the discussion thread, rather than having a link hidden amongst the posts.

JMHO
[XPERIA X10 General] ImS0Raw:
Something such like this isn't possible, only if you would create in the Admin Control Panel a special usergroup to move devs to it. Just to much work for such a little thing.
[XPERIA X10 General] -PiLoT-:
this is not a good idea

and this would be apparent if people have been here for a length of time

im gonna give a scenario here

ok developers can mod their own threads. what if that same dev then does something bad and underhanded, and then a member in the threads knows and posts it in the thread (this has actually happened before). the dev then goes and deleted all traces of this from the thread so the moderators never know of the developers wrongdoing

in a perfect world this maybe a good idea

however at the minute no. this would allow a developers too many tools to cover up any moment of ill judgement

Hi everybody,

I received the "update" notification for NoDo on my HTC HD7 - O2 Germany, on 6th of April, and I "normally" updated my phone with Zune. Everything was perfect.

Now it has :

OS version : 7.0.7390.0

Firmware revision number : 2250.09.16901.207

Hardware revision number : 0002

Radio Software version : 5.54.09.21_22.33b.50.10U

Radio Hardware version : A.102.0.D4

Bootloader version : 1.69.2250.0(117833)

Chip SOC version : 2.2.5.0

The only changes that I noticed (till now) :

- Copy/Paste

- In About screen it displays now the MAC address and SIM ID

- The applications seems to start a little bit faster.

All installed applications runs with no problems.

Hi people,

Recently went to the market, and I tried downloading Green Power. It claimed to be able to work with 2.3.3

However, I don't see it toggling 3G automatically.

Has anyone managed to get it working?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] du5t3r:
If you are connected to a wireless network the app doesn't use your data connection. Try running the app with your wireless off or turn off your router. You'll see it working then.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dplate07:
Huh I thought the main objective of the app is to turn off the 3G when its not in use?

What's the point of turning off the wifi or router?

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shubu000:
I got this yesterday it does switch off the 3g so I think its been working. Although there were a few times when I switch RH screen on and off too quickly that it takes 10 seconds o so before 3g comes back

So far its been good using greenpower can update later
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] du5t3r:
The reason I said to turn off wifi/router was so he could see if the app was turning on/off his 3g connection properly; that being his question
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shubu000:
Alright its been a few days and I can safely say that green power is working out awesome for me

If I just leave the phone alone it last a lot longer I'd estimate it to using around 10-20% battery judging by the percentage reported by the phone
[Nook Color General] oka1:
My question is this: can you flash 2.3 (or any rom for that matter) directly on to the nook and still keep the nook reader ? or is it only possible to do by loading on the sd card and running from there ?

I ve rooted the Nook and now, I just want a faster android 2.3 would resolve alot of problems

Thanks
[Nook Color General] nislo:
There is the option to dual boot various roms. It doesn't affect your stock ROM, installs a second ROM and allows you to choose depending on the combination of buttons your press during boot.

See http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=959461
[Nook Color General] Shadowise:
If you install CM7 you can install the generic Nook reader available in the Android Marketplace, but it differs from the custom version installed on the stock ROM.

Most threads I've read point to people preferring the stock version, but if you just want access to your B&N collection, moving to CM7 won't prevent this.

Hey all,

I was wondering if there is a barnicle-like, free app so that I am able to use USB Tethering and charge my phone while I'm at school using their desktop computers? or am I just blind and its in the settings somewhere.

Thanks in advance

-DarkRyoushii
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chubby_Skunk:
I was looking for the same thing since the stupid computers at my school don't have wireless network adapters built in. If we can get the bootloader unlocked then we could get a vanilla (plain) Android ROM, possibly 2.3. With Google's stock Android there is the option for USB and Mobile AP (USB tethering and WiFi tethering).

Sorry I couldn't help. :(
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _Dennis_:
You could pay for tethering like I don't know responsible people. If you can't pay for something you should not steal it.

If you payed for tethering and you wanted USB tethering then you can get barnacle by enabling sideloading and finding it on line (a simple google search should find it).
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DarkRyoushii:
1. I'm in Aus, tethering is free

[Desire HD General] mjehan:
Hi,

So I have a query regarding how the Gingerbread Release will be happening for branded DHD phones since there are a lot of middle men in the chain.

Here is what I think what will happen:

Google Releases Gingerbread -> HTC tweaks it for the DHD and adds their crapware -> Mobile Operators tweaks it further adding their crapware too -> Released to consumer (OTA)

So what does this statement mean: "Gingebread will be released for the DHD by end of April" ? Does it mean it will come to HTC at this time or does it mean it is when HTC will release it for DHD consumers ?

My question is that will the HTC tweak of Gingerbread included their improved 1.84 update ? When and if we will be seeing the new Sense 3D in this update ?
[Desire HD General] Blezz:
we wont see the new 3d sense

and if a PROVIDER says we will get it at end of april, means we get the finished gb at the end of april

No Provider...at least hier in DE has given a date for Gingerbread. The date comes from a French HTC retailer.

Create an Ad-Hock. This would be pushing your labtop connection out of its WiFi so that your phone can hook up to it.

Open Network and Sharing Center > Setup a new connection or network > Setup a wireless ad hoc

Make the name and security... Bla Bla Bla

U can connect your phone to it now.

Next go back to Network and Sharing Center > Change adapter settings

Double Click on "Local Area Connections" (Your Ethernet Adapter Properties) > Sharing (Tab)

[Check] Allow other network users to connect through this computer's Internet connection

Think thats it. Been awhile and im providing this info off the top of my head.

Also if you say want to send your wireless net to your ethernet:

Skip the adhoc part and just go to Adapter settings, pick wireless and enable sharing.

Here's the deal. I hate the newer versions of YouTube because they don't save list position when scrolling subscriptions. This causes me to have to start at the top of my subscriptions list after every video, even if I just pop in one to look at the description.
