One of my creators is dead, and the other lives in New Jersey.

And I agree that my fake signature has no place in this tech forum. Neither do love notes to your personal deity.

Say xda ignored its rules to allow the love notes to Jesus, then they'd have to allow hate notes to him too, on order to be fair to those who hate him.

And instead of falling into that quagmire, xda decided to just follow its rules.

I'm sure if you complain about my previous post it will eventually be deleted, as even I think its in violation of the forum rules.

But what's wrong with being a "gay love child?" ;-)

Oooh. No problem at all. :)
[Thunderbolt General] kurttrail:
If you complain, it will eventually get removed. Just like what happened to the guy who had his Sig removed after complaints.

This is a very high traffic site so there is a delay between complaints result in removal. And since this all happened, I'd bet the delay is longer than usual.

Neither has any business in this tech forum, that has specific rules against political and religious speech.

Oh, you must be one of the people that would tell their kid not to say the Pledge of Allegiance in class because it says God in it...

I think you should make a bigger tinfoil hat, seems the aliens are getting into your brain waves...
[Thunderbolt General] kriskmk:
Are you talking about the folks who said "all men are created equal" and then went home to be serviced by their slaves? :D

and come on... A signature is not a religious speech.

If the adage "A picture speaks a thousand words" is true.. then people with religious symbols including by not limited to, cross, satan/demon/devil, rosary etc. etc.. are a thousand times more culpable than someone who says Jesus is his savior.
[Thunderbolt General] kurttrail:
The original pledge didn't reference "God."

IIRC, "God" was added during the red scare years.

I guess I expect the Mods to handle their business and manage their product. Just like other IT people I deal with daily. Perhaps you are right, though. Maybe we should just expect nothing, then when things go to sh*t we won't be disappointed.

I've moderated forums before elsewhere.. and it's a nightmare when the forum is popular and there are several threads cropping up every day with hundreds of posts.

I liked the idea some one proposed.. about letting developers moderate their own threads.
[Thunderbolt General] kurttrail:
The Founding Fathers weren't perfect, and neither is the US Constitution perfect.

And expressing love for one specific deity, over the multitudes of other deities created in our image, is most certainly the very definition of religious speech, just like my new fake signature is religious speech:

Jesus is the gay love child of Yahweh and the Holy Space Ghost!

I always kind of thought avatars and sigs were a way to express some individuality without it being carried over into discussion and cause things to get totally off topic. I don't think any politics/religion/etc should be discussed, debated, or shoved down anyone's throat on XDA, but a simple personal comment in a Sig. Come on. Some people need to find more constructive use of their time.

[Thunderbolt General] yareally:
Such a näive assumption to think that developers do it only for the community. Long before they were posting stuff here, they were hacking and modding things for themselves first and foremost. They just like to be nice (well some of them are nice at least, lol) and share with everyone else. If you think making roms is a popularity contest, you should probably go back to high school, because the development world is not what you think.
[Thunderbolt General] kurttrail:
I don't have a problem with the Jesus sig, however I do understand why someone would complain about it, in a phone-hacking forum that has rules against religious and political speech.

Once receiving the complaints, xda had a choice, follow their rules, open up signatures to all religious speech, or approve signatures with religious content on a case by case basis.

Xda chose the fairest choice, by following the rules we all agreed to when we registered for this site.

Could you imagine the religious wars that would take place if xda allowed all religious content signatures?

And could you imagine the nightmare of having to approve signatures of every member for acceptable religious content, not to mention actually figuring out what is and what isn't "acceptable religious content?"

Anyone who cares about the forum even a slight bit still, please report this thread as breaking xda rules (that will let you report it directly without PMing the thunderbolt specific moderator). If enough of us do it, maybe someone will take notice and close it. Same goes for other threads like this too. I don't know if it's the apathy of our own moderator or that of xda itself, but it can't hurt to try.
[Thunderbolt General] rckeystone:
Well actually I remember back last fall during the elections that almost every time I viewed xda I had to see the ad banners at the top of almost every page with political ads about Pat Toomey and china. So if xda has a policy about politics they broke it back then.
[Thunderbolt General] kurttrail:
They really teach 4th graders about the time Republican Dan White assassinated Harvey Milk? Really?

And do they teach them about the time when the tyranny of the majority, through referendum, stripped gay peoples' right to marry?

That's the California "Gay" history that I know about without having to Google.

I dont care what your religious background is but the reason they ban such signatures is perfectly displayed in this thread, its turned into a religious rights forum.

Sucks to lose talented people but the world isn't going to stop rotating for anyone so more power to people for standing up for what you believe in but if you think it will change things, especially here, I wouldn't hold your breath.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] j2310lime:
Okay so im new to this and i have been working all day on trying to get my vibrant modded a little .. My earlier thread shows that i had some trouble and finally got it back to its factory settings .

Now I have upgraded to 2.2 and i rooted it using super one click rooting because I cannot root with an update.zip because I get a signature verification failure. But I realized i need to do this anyways to run a rom even using rom manager ..

So i tried to install 3e recovery installer which is suppose to override this but for some reason it fails to install. It says checking for root: and it fails.

Someone seemed to have the same problem in a different thread and said they deleted some bloatware with terminal emulator but i used termaninal backup (or something like that) to delete some bloatwares but this still did not fix the problem for me.

What is my problem? And what lag fix can i use for my vibrant when i get all this to work?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Andreal:
Fastest way to obtain root :

1. is to flash stock JFD rom (use AIO tools.

2. flash Clockwork recovery through Rom manager (get it from market)

3. Flash any rooted rom (with Voodoo lagfix) through CWM.

And most important thing, if you don't know what you are doing with your phone don't do anything.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] younix258:
i thought you needed root to flash recovery from rom manager...

anyways, my method of rooting is to use the recovery 3e to 2e batch (dont wanna call it an install cause it doesnt install really) and then flash a root update.zip from the 2e recovery you just flashed.

what may be happening to your 3e 2e thing is that you might of forgotten to enable usb debugging... you do this by going in the menu>applications>development>usb debugging on

make sure the phone is plugged in to the computer and debug is on and run 3e to 2e...

then get ahold of a root update.zip and rename it update.zip, put it on the root of your internal sd card (\mnt\sdcard\) and go into recovery (power phone off, hold vol up and down buttons and then hold power button at the same time until you see the vibrant boot screen. when you get into recovery, hit reinstall packages.

sorry for the wall of text; hope this helps.

I want to know if flashing reptadly can harm my phone i wont do it anyway but just as a fact

By flashing i mean more like changin from miui to cm7 not full sbf flash

Thx for all future answers
[Defy General] arpith.fbi:
hmm.. i dont think so..u r just changing the software...if u look at the hardware part, battery usage is lil..not more than 2%..cpu wont go to max clock..even if it goes then it wont be dere for long as it takes hardly 2 mins to flash a rom..only wear and tear can be seen in internal memory and external memory which unzips the file from sd card and installs in the internal memory..cmon..i m sure mobiles can handle such a load..

dont worry dude..just give it a try..i m sure u wont regret :)
[Defy General] Hugo32:
Same question here: I had to flash Froyo about 10 times now because of constant freezes and other problems. Now I wonder if the internal memory can handle that amount of writing/ formatting.
[Defy General] nepotu:
Stop worrying about broking your Defy by simply flashing it as it won't harm your phone (the nand chip should least few thousands flash cycles). There are many people on this forum (especially the devs) whom already did it for more than 500 or even 1k times.
[Defy General] cosminmocan:
thx for all the answers now im cool :))
[Defy General] Hugo32:
But what about removing the battery during operation (because of freezes for example) ? Could removing the battery destroy the internal memory ?

Or is it more like a RAM chip (but permanent) that could loose data but can not get damaged through power loss ?
[Defy General] Hugo32:
Anyone ? Could the internal memory be corrupted by removing the battery ?

I'm trying to figure out which part of my Defy is producing errors...
[Defy General] rachit2588:
there is no problem with flashing...even if the eeprom has write cycles...they are more than 50000 to 1 million (with the latest chips)..so enjoy.!!

for Texas inst. mostly its around [flash minimum = 10000 write/erase cycles]....so you are good upto 10000 sbf flashes..!! :p
[Defy General] Hugo32:
(from wikipedia)

but my question was if removing the battery destroys the chip ? for example I believe that removing usb sticks or sd cards during writing not only produces errors but also damages the file system ...

but I'm not sure about that ... does it make any sense ? could something happen to the chip when power ceases while writing ?
[Defy General] Hugo32:
Anyone ? What happens when storage gets removed/ shut down while writing ?
[Defy General] gommers1978:
Just dont do that.... Problem solved.
[Defy General] gommers1978:
If you remove the battery while flashing then yeah of course, but as long as this does not happen when you are flashing the bootloader i THINK it will be fine.

But as i say why would you want to take the risk?

Remember i'm not sure and i'm not gonna try it.
[Defy General] Hugo32:
What choice do you have when the phone freezes ?

I didn't mean during flashing but during regular operation...

I don't know how these things work but with sdCards you often have the problem that they get corrupted when removed during writing...
[Defy General] gommers1978:
When my phone freezes i remove the battery had no problems so far.

I did only have 1 freeze so far (fingers crossed)

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] rafiqzadah:
So now that you have it figured. Run the Tmous version and see if you like it then download the EU version with CWM partition size 190 instead of the 240 you used for the Tmous version. It works and you get more free ram. I am runnning EU ROM with 150 partition and am getting 250+ ram free 24/7. Just a tip to any US HD2, you can run the EU version of any Rom.

And please rename thread with [SOLVED] at the beginning of thread name. Now others won't need to waste time and help, and "EXPERTS" won't come to flame.
[Nook Color General] nook-color:
I have been using my stock N.C. to reformat my SD card - while I learned how to load up and upgrade CM7 and kernals - on my Card.

I'd like to explore the option of rooting the EMMC and getting familiar with CWM - to learn ROOTING - and swapping out ROM's a bit more.

I don't want to mess up my cards and get them all from 8 GB and 16 GB - down to 117MB cards b/c of Formatting from using Win32 disk imager

Is there another way to reformat a MicroSD card besides using my Nook. B/c if I start tinkering with the internal software - I'll be losing that option.

Thanks
[Nook Color General] Phatdawg:
There isn't a big deal with using the image files as long as you have a competition partition manager. People and I have been using Easeus and haven't really had any problems with using that program to manage partitions and it can format etc.

You only need to have the hardware reader for the SD card, a lot come with some sort of usb reader device or a fullsize card that has a slot in it for the micro to slip in and be a transition point.
[Nook Color General] nook-color:
Is THIS what you're referring to ?

I'm not looking to use re-use an image - as much as wiping sd card clean to start over with a card so that has its full storage capacity. As I mentioned - I'm currently using the NOOK COLOR - to clear cards whenever I want to start something from scratch. If I swap out the ROM's - I'm figuring I'd lose that ability from stock nook software.

got that covered already.
[Nook Color General] Phatdawg:
Yes you can easily deal with partitions and "clearing" the card with a competent partition manager.
