[General Questions and Answers] rdbwpb:
I just saying that there is no excuse for treating posters badly. I've been a registered user for more than a year but I find myself coming here less and less because I can find as good or better info on other sites and most don't have the xda attitude.

I want to be clear that most people don't act this way and that plenty of nice helpful people respond here every day. The point I'm making is that there are a few that need to be cleaned up. I hadn't thought of the report button but in the future I will use it freely. Maybe that will get the attention of the powers that be.

It would be interesting to start a thread on the xda **** of the day. People could cut and paste insulting behavior into the thread including the name of the poster. Every day/week members could vote. I bet it would dry up fast....:thumbup:

Same Old Same Old

Really, Really???

Makes me laugh when people chant that mantra of "this is a developers site. Not a tech support site, not a rom flashing site......". maybe when the site was made 5,6 years ago it was a developers site. But things grow and evolve as is in the human nature. XDA has evolved into more than just a Dev site, its a site for development, education and learning.

It amuses me when people try to alienate the devs from the users. Don't give excuses for rude or egotistical people, if someone is in doubt, use your knowledge to help him or shut up. afterall, the great devs of today all learnt from scratch. Nobody was born with code in their brain from the womb (except chuck norris :D). Because the way this site is going its going to drive users away from its fold.

And when you succeed in alienating the noobs, and xda becomes a dev-only site, who will test the bugs in the developers' software? how will developed apps get publicity? I know some devs who've made alot of money from donations for their software; heck, this site's servers are supported by donations from users.

XDA is a leader in development and mobile collaboration and we've seen the amount of clout and influence XDA has, the mobile companies HTC,Samsung, motorola all hear the voice of XDA (as evidenced by htc's bootloader unlocking, htc dev, making motorola answer for locking bootloaders) but dont think that XDA will have such influence if all of the over 4 million users are gone and like 1000 developers ( if they are even that many) remain.

Also I'm not excusing some very stupid people who ask the wrong questions, and don't follow rules.for example, I only registered here last year but I've followed this site for 3 years. If I had a problem, I also come here to search and I always got my answer. I only had to register when I got the lenovo thinkpad, which didn't have any active development forum so I could post a question. So I guess I'm one of those who likes to search before posting.

The summary of everything I just said is help people who are truly in need of it, (not the silly ones) and XDA isn't a dev only site.
[General Questions and Answers] thewarhawk:
Well I disagree on this one point, if they don't take the time to try and look it up and find it on their own it does give you the right to be a little rude, because that's pretty rude of them, expecting you to take time out of your day to give them an answer when they don't take any of their own time to even try..but, of course, I'm not in favor of going crazy on them..just enough let them know that's unacceptable
[General Questions and Answers] ExMM:
I don't like rude people too, and I met quite a few here...

I do am agree thus, that newcomers should look VERY well into the proper thread and all over XDA site.

I like to help when I can and if I can, but I have seen more and more often people asking simple questions like:

"someone can show me some guide?" or " does an xperia thread exist?"

Well don't need help really for this question, is just enough to search..

I guess developers or user generally can get tired of this.

However I am agree that some users normally answer by jokes or in a rude way, although people like this could be everywhere..
[General Questions and Answers] Hasht4g:
Sometimes you have to be rude to let people know they should google first before they post a question:p
[General Questions and Answers] Android311:
Yes I agree with you
[General Questions and Answers] PakAttack1994:
I think most users dont consider themselves entitled or expect any helpful posts in regards to their questions, I'm sure they're just hoping someone can point them into the right direction. I've searched and gathered everything I needed to know myself but its not like I ever expected another user to help me. I figure if users want to help other users, awesome, but don't give attitude when doing so.
[General Questions and Answers] Android311:
I understand but to a point, there's no need to curse at someone and be rude just because he asked a question even if its been asked before a 1000 times, if you don't like the question he asked then don't answer it, I see that a lot on here, noob ask a question then gets an answer "why do you ask so many questions?" I thought to myself why does it matter to you its a q&a forum, just skip over the post or answer the question with some respect without rude remarks

I'm frustrated. I've been trying to install the NS drivers for 2 days now to no avail. I don't know where to browse. I've followed many tuts and none of the worked. Either an error appeared afterwards or I couldn't browse to the driver file because it wasn't found. Can somone kindly do a step by step simple explanation of how to do this for windows 7 64 bit... or atleast provide me with a good link?

Thank you

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Harbb:
I used that exact video and files when i did mine, Win7 x64 too (though it was the older, GB rooting video/files with older su.zip). You need to unzip the file first, so copy the usb_driver folder onto your desktop or something, then have disk --> usb_driver --> .inf file.

Could you tell me exactly what error you get?

Just seen this tweet from Dhacker29!!!!!

First Off Working Cam!!!!!! YEAH!!

I knew they would get there!!!

This is basically the same rom from Dhacker29's last release but with the cam working!!!

You need to be on the .902 update to install this. If your not follow instructions Here or Here.

What works:

CAMERA!!

Graphics working smooth now (Hashcode)

Adb is working so we can track the rest (Hashcode)

Touchscreen (Hashcode)

Capacitive buttons (Hashcode)

Charging indicator (Hashcode)

BlueTooth

Both SDCards mounting on phone

Builtin Screenshot (CM)

Reboot menu (CM)

Phone and SMS works

GPS fully functional

Audio fully working (Hashcode audio wrapper based on tpruvot’s Defy work)

USB Mount working for sdcard-ext (Hashcode)

Gallery recognizes both cards (Hashcode)

1x/3g/lte data working

NOTE: you may have to dial *#*#4636#*#* (or use Phone Info from the market) and toggle data mode between modes. For me toggling to GSM only till the screen flashes and then back to GSM/CDMA auto (prl) works perfect. It will show data for a sec then flash off and about 30 seconds it will pop up to full data.

Not Working:

Front Facing Cam(really messed up you look at it)

Face Unlock

Cam Video

SafeStrap for Bionic

Chrome does not seem to work

Tried installing chrome beta browser, but it says that my version of android is not supported, needs 4.0 or higher. Anyone able to get chrome to work?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] smokedkill:
I don't think chrome is working on any of the ics roms yet. I haven't tried any of the ics roms in a few days but it's always one of the first things I check (even though its not going to have flash). I'll be playing around with ics over the weekend so I will be able to see if that particular problem was fixed but its only alpha so its no big deal if it isn't.

[Motorola Droid Bionic] Skidoo03:
That may just be for you, I have been running it all day with no problems, besides the front camera, video, and everything else that is known. Try going to settings, then under Wireless & networks > network mode > click GSM only, wait for screen to flash, then hit LTE/CDMA again and after about 30 seconds you should have data.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] iNsAnEmOd:
I give thanks for everyone that doesn't
[Motorola Droid Bionic] herach:
Ya. I have done that too. No luck. Well, I'll just go back to GB till a stable working ROM is out, and thanks to everyone and all the Devs that are working hard for us. I just wish that I had the knowledge of doing this but unfortunately I don't. So, all the DEVS out there, THANK YOU.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] --Mac--:
Now on 2-24 ICS and 2-17 Gapps this morning, here are my initial thoughts after coming from 2-10:

- Camera will take photos but does force close for me after each photo taken

- I had to toggle GSM Only --> GSM/CDMA auto (PRL) a few times today to get data back

- Twitter app has FC'd a few times for me, never did with 2-10

- ICS Music app won't start, FC's as soon as I try to load it. The old Google Music app does work

- Having battery icon at top display increments is great (even if it is only by 10%)

- Google+ FC's like whoa

That is all for now. I did not wipe data when I flashed the new version so take this for what its worth. I just didn't have time to, still might if others don't notice these issues.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] iNsAnEmOd:
I got the ICS music player to run once. Then i seen this comment now its not working. WEIRD!!!!

Got it.

Clear data and Force Close it in Settings/apps/all

Boot animation was still animated? I personally haven't seen it just cycle forever. If it didn't freeze, might just have jumped the gun. Initial ics boots do take a little bit. If you're at 10 min or something, may be a problem.

[General Questions and Answers] mistermentality:
There is no android version called honeybread but you might be thinking of the version for tablets which is called honeycomb.

Fragmentation means that there are several versions of android being used rather than just one or two.

All operating systems are fragmented but some more than others. For example a number of iphone users are not using ios5 just as a lot of android users are not using ice cream sandwich.

Dave
[General Questions and Answers] nacos:
From what I have been reading, it mostly refers to the fact that the all Android versions for phones have, over time, taken slightly different directions as far as the UI, development, tools, etc from Honeycomb, the version dedicated to tablets. This in turn has created increasing consistency/incompatibility issues with applications since even slight differences in the OS would (in many cases) require different versions of the same application. This, again translates into unnecessary additional costs, and so ICS has been developing as the common ground for any future software development, be it phone or tablet.
