The first thing i ever noticed about XDA, coming from Villainrom was that the users on XDA had a lot less time for you, I adapted quickly and have had run ins before.

Some people just get shot down in flames for asking a question, whether they're noobs or whether they're just stuck asking a question in a section and getting no responses, it can be hard for someone to get an answer, typically when they're new.

If you want a perfect forum, then create rules, if people don't adhere to those forum rules, then they leave, it's as simple as that.

As for the developers, well this place wouldn't be what it is today without developers, but they do it because they want to, they want to work at making something better and then share it with people, if people have have a question then they should be able to ask away.

Some of the OPS don't have a lot of info in them either, if someone asks about something which is quite clearly in the OP then they should get face palmed i get that, but not if they don't understand something and didn't want to spend an hour trudging through 300 pages to find an answer, then someone sarcastically turns around to them and says "Use the search button DOH" or USE SEARCH ----> or something which you'd expect from a spoilt kid.

Plus the search function isn't the best on XDA, sometimes it just doesn't work.

Myself, i think the one thing which has scared all the dev's off is the 3d, no one has been able to crack that yet (on the newer roms), if it were a single camera and it wasn't 3d, i think it would be more popular than the sensation.
[HTC EVO 3D] xHausx:
The short answer, IMHO, is to have more people on here learning how to develop and contribute than just using and requesting features. The respect and entitlement issues a lot of people attribute to XDA are also far from being unique to this site, they're issues with the Android community as a whole.

There are far too many people who would rather just throw money out there to anyone who can make their phone do cool ****, and, while there is absolutely nothing wrong with donating to someone for their time, when you start putting it out there too much you get people whose only concern is hustling others out of money and the whole open source model collapses.

edit: As others have also mentioned, if you see something disprespectful, innappropriate or you don't think it belongs in your thread, etc., please hit the little triangle on the top right of the post and report it. On a site with this much traffic it's impossible to see everything that goes on and you all would be shocked if you knew about some of the stuff that gets by without anyone reporting it. It also makes it much easier for us to deal with and recognize those who have a habit of causing trouble.
[HTC EVO 3D] dlads:
I would love to learn how to develop, but time is not really on my side, i work 45 hours a week fixing phones, laptops, pc's and tablets of hardware and software faults, don't really touch the development side of things, but yea i'd love to learn as i was good at art in school, reckon i'd make a good themer, plus i'm a perfectionist so if it's not good enough for me then i wouldn't think it to be good enough for anyone else.

Then again, to get something working on a device it wasn't designed for is an achievement in itself i suppose.

I've always wanted to make my own rom, would be great if one of the dev's kept a video diary of what they've done to make a rom what it is, they're not obliged to but it might help the community, lot of work but it'd be cool :)

I am just about to throw my phone at the wall.

So I was on stock 2.3.3 and decided I wanted to update to ICS

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1488096

I didn't have clockwork mod and wasn't rooted so I eventually got this working

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=788108

Then I tried to install the ICS rom but it wouldn't work. I then tried to flash http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1353657 which for some reason didnt have any cell phone coverage.

I tried going back to the just rooted version of 2.3.3 but haven't been able to get the phone to go past the samsung logo / Clockwork Recovery.

Edit: Whenever I try flash the 2.3.3 rooted rom it updates me to Clockwork Mod Recovery v3.0.0.5 with HEAPS of errors.

Any ideas?

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ufk:
Hello.

I have galaxy note GT-N7000 with stock rom XLC1.

I purchased and installed Rom Manager Premium v5.0.0.6 from the market

and it seems that when I click on "Flash ClockworkMod Recovery" it opens up a list of phone types and none of them is galaxy note.

I get the following list: galaxy S2, Epic4G, epic4G touch, galaxyS i9000, galaxy S2.

one time I tried to change build.properties file to galaxy I9000 (in order to try and install order & chaos from the market) which is listed on the phone brands but since them i flashed my rom and wiped it and re-installed the applications so I have no idea how the rom manager would still think that I have I9000.

any ideas?

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] codyrad1:
Have patience friend, it will. In the mean time it is an easy way to do CWM updates. Go to cwm nightly in your browser and click the rom manager icon for the version you want to upgrade to and it will auto download and do its auto thing for installing just fine right now. it just cannot recognize the note for cwm recovery or using the download or check for updates. A bit more manual, I admit but it will get there and far easier than manually downloading transferring to phone and then rebooting into recovery to install. It took a while before it was able to fully automate my S2 so it will come to the N7000. I am in the same situation as I recently upgraded to the N7000.

Hey guys, so I was wondering if there's a processor management solution out there compatible with XXLPQ.

Also, if anyone knows if there's an app that lets you disable one processor and OC the other? I'd imagine that'd increase battery life without reducing the performance.

Anyway, thanks for reading!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Omega Frost:
ICS is designed for multi core support, I believe OC one core and disable the other will screw the overall performance.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 4421188:
GTFO. I didn't ask for your piece of **** unhelpful hate. The guy above explained, ICS is designed for multi-core.

I also mentioned that it shouldn't take a drastic hit on performance, it will, but I doubt most of us would notice. Now go back to your basement and jack off like you always do you f***ing loner.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aceofclubs:
Ok not LPQ yet but.

Siyah kernel and extweaks app lets you play with the thresholds that the 2nd core cuts in and out. I think other custom kernels do it too.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Deviatorz:
I'm currently on Rogers Canada right now. I have the Gnex NON-LTE version. I've been doing speedtests on my device and I've constantly been getting around 250kB/s, usually less. There are a couple times where I reached 850kB/s but most of the time just 250 which is quite slow. I've tested this in open areas.

The baseband it came with is UGKL1. I've been downloading stuff and usually I get around 250kb/s or even slower.

I now switched to the newer radio UGLA4. I am getting about the same results. Once or twice I did speedtests and got 640kb/s.

My feeling is that its Rogers network that's constantly giving me poor download speeds. Does anyone else have faster speeds with non-LTE Gnex on rogers? Any solutions? I've looked around but to no avail.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] GreatBigDog:
I just tested mine (Rogers Network) and I was getting a consistent 1mb/s upload and download. I do however at the moment have a good quality hspa connection.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Deviatorz:
That's not the LTE version right? What baseband are you using and where are you located in canada? I'm in the Vancouver region.

I think I partially figured out the reason why I'm getting slow speeds. I'm currently using AOKP ROM (milestone 4). There's a power saver setting where if I'm idle for a certain amount time (ie 10mins) it turns my connection to 2G. Yes I set that up. Once I wake my device it turns 3G/HSDPA back on. However going into the secret menu (*#*#4636#*#*) I noticed that the preferred network type is set on "GSM/CDMA auto". This is likely the be the issue, if I want HSDPA it should be set on WCDMA. Now I've set that to WCDMA Preferred. Doing a speed test I'm getting speeds of 400-500kb/s. That's a drastic improvement. However upload remains to be the same at around 150kb/s. However keeping the power saving option it reverts back to the "GSM/CDMA auto" after idle time.

I don't think I have quite solved my issue as this device should be about to download/upload at faster speeds. I'm going to change back to my old baseband and see. Please let me know the details about your phone, thanks!

Edit: I see you're from PEI. Let me know your baseband still, thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mrnovanova:
That doesn't sound like a radio problem, sounds more like a tower problem. Have you triend driving around ant testing your signals in different places? I usually get between 2,5 and 9mps in and around montreal. Where did you try? Were your four signal bars on with the H and the arrow?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Deviatorz:
Yes I have. I get about the same results. I have tried both open areas and inside buildings. I just reinstalled old radio and my speeds with WCDMA only enabled gets me about 300+kB/s.

Just to clarify my kB/s or kb/s is kilobytes for seconds (not bits).

I doubt we should be having tower problems in Vancouver though....
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Deviatorz:
So I tried driving around more with the new baseband I got about 1000kB/s. Upload was still slow at around 200kB/s. Any reason why? I found some people believe that rogers caps the limit but still too low for me.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RTContent:
Could possibly be your carrier throttling the speed? For most users 250kbs is more than enough.

I have the gsm version and live in the UK. If I get 2.5mb download speeds over HSPA I consider it fast!

Yea it's been pretty much up and down for me. Most of the time I get around 500kbyte/s and around 230 indoor. Upload is just pure crap for me outside or in. I've been getting around 150-200kbyte/s, mostly 160ish. Sometimes I even get 80kB/s. This is a problem and I don't know if its the phone or just poor coverage. I'm leaning towards poor coverage as I did manage to get a fast 900kbyte/s download and 250kbyte/s upload.

To those moving to mobilicty, honestly the coverage with them is worse. I can't stand dropped calls. I have friends who are on both wind and mobilicity and they tell me about the dropped calls. I sometimes have to make important calls and dropped calling is a nono. They can deal with it but for me I can't.
