Hello Android users and devs!

First of all I want to apologize for posting in the General Discussion, but I do not have enough posts to do it in the Development Section.

Also I am not aware whether this has been already discussed or is it forbidden (I didn't found such restrictions in the rules)

Anyway, since I got my Desire S this forum is the primary source of information for me, as well as for all the other visitors around.

And especially when it comes to custom rom files there are troubles with dead links, crappy file sharing sites with stupid limitations, etc.

So I think it will be much more convenient for everyone (devs and users) to use the torrent system via magnet link (combined with QR scan maybe) for all the files that are posted around here. The download speed will be much better and all that have downloaded the file once will contribute by seeding it to the others. And of course via the appropriate client the files can be downloaded directly to the SD Card (this is of course possible now through the phone web browser, but a lot of steps are required - waiting, human security check forms, etc.).

Looking forward to your comments.
[HTC Desire S] ben_pyett:
I'd suggest that you post this question within this the XDA forum in the chance that one of the mods will answer as this relates to rules and policy and isn't something that a member can answer.
[HTC Desire S] amidabuddha:
Thank you for your reply! I agree on the policy matter, but my general idea was to start a discussion on this topic. In my opinion the torrent system is much more friendly when it comes to file sharing and I was curious is there people around that agree on that, especially the regular users like me and also the developers that are posting files all the time. One of the advantages as well is that on single torrent there can be multiple files attached.

So what do you think? :)
[HTC Desire S] ben_pyett:
Sounds like a great idea

I totally agree with you, but unfortunately if the people here at XDA don't then its a wasted discussion.
[HTC Desire S] amidabuddha:
:)

Ok, there is the new thread. Let's see what will be the verdict :)
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] AscalonX:
There is an easier way to install themes for the Arc than the ADB shell commands.

Simply copy the .zip file to the root folder of your SD card on a rooted stock ROM, with an unlocked bootloader.

Then, using Fastboot and the recoveryArc.img file, use the command:

fastboot boot recoverARC.img

This boots the phone the phone temporarily with the ClockwordMod boot recovery image. You can then just scroll down to the install zip option using the volume rocker and then the power button to select. Choose install zip and there you go. Reboot and them installed.

Sorry of this is a repost, but I was having no joy with the ADB method.

[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] SXUsr:
Which is only good for those that have their bootloaders unlocked, and those that do, will already know. ;)
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] AscalonX:
Yeah well, I was impressed. ;-)

But then again I am, easily, not to mentioned distracted—oh look! A bee!

[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] AscalonX:
Damn I spoke too soon!

WIth both the Gingerbread theme and the Green X-Themes, the installation appears to go OK, but only the boot animations, unlock screens and the battery icons appear to have actually changed. Little else appears to be implemented.

It seems as if this is not a good installation method. :(

Sorry!

[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] AndroHero:
That will only work if the dev has made the .zip into a flashable CWM .zip, its needs to have the correct edify script and binarys.
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] ShyamSasi:
Theme installation without unlock bootloaders was little harder maybe some developer can make an application to replace the system files. It would make a great application.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bclark:
Yes, he is referring to the sexy voodoo girl. I have no idea how they did that but I'm sure if you pm'd a few of the kernel devs they might help. there us really no time to do this though, we aren't doing any conversion on boot and she talks about switching from rfs to ext4.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dh2311:
The voodoo kernel only spoke when it was enabling or disabling lagfix. Since there is no lagfix for sgs ii (since its ext 4 already)

Would it be possible to take the Sensation ROM and replace the widgets etc with the Saga ones for better scaling?

Hey there,

I'm running CM7,and have Skype 1.0.0.983.(the old Skype)

It works great,but I have the following problem:

In order to be shown Online,I have to logon also on my PC.

That's fine by me,but there rises a problem:

If the computer version disconnects and reconnects(which happens quite a lot),I get no rings on my Wildfire,and only on my PC.

Is there a way of solving it?

I've tried the new Skype,and it worked awful.(choppy sound)

I know that till then,came an update to the new version.

Does anyone have a good experience with the latest Skype?

Thanks,

Yohai.

[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Roshi69:
I just wanted to post because i see on most threads theres usually someone has to be a cheeky arrogant **** to someone that is simply asking for help and doesn't have much knowledge.

My understanding was you came here for help and support and to try and help others is it not? But yet, when people ask for help they often get slaughtered for various reasons such as: wrong section, repeated thread, not searching properly, using the wrong punctuation etc (the last one was exagerated a bit but it wouldnt surprise me)

Basically before i came here years ago I would not have even known what Root is/does, why you would flash different ROMs etc and i have learned everything thanks to XDA and the various genious' that make it all possible.

I just dont think its right the way some people THINK they can talk/treat others and it is certainly uncalled for.

For example when i first came here I had the Xperia X10 and was very interested in the work and came across a problem when flashing someones ROM but I didnt have enough posts to reply so had to start a thread in General asking for help and the response i got you think i had just launched a nuke and killed thousands.

I know i will probably get slaughtered for this but basically i think this is a problem that should be addressed and no one else will say anything about it so i will!

And one final thing i cant understand. What could possibly make you feel good about making a **** out of others??? If you are one of these people could you kindly do me a favour and go play chicken with an incoming 12 Gauge Round from point blank range. That is all :mad:

It relieves stress being a **** to others online knowing you won't get shot for it afterwards. Words from a stranger can't hurt enough for it to be an actual problem can it? There are now two active similar threads on this issue.

When i first joined here,this is what people told me:

"If you need step by step instructions,you shouldnt be doing anathing to your phone"

"You double posted the samething"

"wth are you talking?re read the OP"

Im still am a NEWBIE,but atleast i got what i wanted.From time to time,if you ask correctly and make it seem innocent,you'll get your answer :)
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rogue Leader:
Quoted for truth.

When I joined XDA I took a couple days and just searched for what I needed, learned as much as I could and THEN asked questions.

The problem here is many of the veteran users are tired of people coming in, and in their first ever post asking for something that if they literally did 5 minutes of searching would find.

As well if you are not technical or its hard for you to understand what you're doing and why, you should reconsider rooting your phone as there is nobody but this place to come help you fix it if you screw up. And while yes it is simple to do, its also easy to screw up.

So the vets see these people come in, ask (or sometimes demand) step by step instructions because they have no clue, and have proven they can't take 5 minutes to try and figure it out themselves. They are now jaded to it after it happens at least 4 or 5 times a week, so cut them some slack.

Answer me this. Would you go out, buy a Corvette, then decide you want to supercharge it so you go to the local corvette club meet. Walk in and say "which of you guys is gonna tell me exactly how to put this supercharger on my car, and I've never turned a wrench in my life." Seriously, what happens here is the digital equivalent.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _terror_:
I'm just being a di** to people who deserve it, who are idiots. When you trying to join this site, you need to watch a movie about the rules and sh*t.

[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mozza2k11:
+1. I find it much faster/easier using google to search xda than the actual xda search function.

I also did the same as Rogue Leader. I spent a few days scanning through alot of threads before posting and i found most of the answers i were looking for.

Everyone understands that newbs have to start somewhere (since i was a newb/still am lol when i got the xplay) but surely most people will have been on a fourm before? Or have used google to search before? No excuses really.

In the time it takes for someone to reply or after the flaming has stopped they could have easily found the answer they were looking for.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dousan:
What you decide to do or not to do does not depend on others action or doing here on xda. You choose to be rude and a ****. How come you feel this resentment. You most have an anger problem and they are just easy targets for ventilating that agro. Who are you to judge others wheter they derserve a flaming or not. You clearly state your own level of knowledge in your own post and you can whine all day long and lay the responsebility on them for you being a ****. I'm gobsmacked over people like you, you take as little responsebility as the multi posters does. Learn how to behave or shut up and don't bloody answer nor look in those threads. Do yourself that favor.

I am one of those people who actually will ask google before asking the internet for answers, and it has saved me a lot of flames.

ALSO, you posted the same thread twice, maybe three times and I fkn hate people who think they will get more attention by the continuous posting of the same question! :mad: Just like the 12 year old who has been posting multi-threads asking how to fix his wi-fi in all the forums.
