Please Tell Me My Post is Not in Vain! :(

Hi coal686, thanks for the reply. Reminds me of my school nickname thankfully which never stuck! lol Well I did type out the long post above because I wanted to mention the difficulties ANY noob would have on approaching the site and also what I DID NOT find Anywhere in the threads. (you have dual boot threads, but not the same) What would seem right direction/s to the "quickie" posters might not actually be the right direction if you read through the threads for the target. Like saying go this way, then that way; oh! and there's also this way and that way too and the person travels all those miles(pages in this case) through all those different paths(threads) only to reach the DEAD END of different sides of the SAME CLIFF to jump off! Don't believe me? Read the threads! You'll understand why and tell me honestly that you don't feel the same way when you see some or rather most of the threads after actually reading a gazillion pages.:eek:

You say difficult to give that much detail. I thought we all actually want an optimal world, not a world driven by chaos?! There is much MORE wrong detail given in a single thread or how do I put it?, Target-less detail, other than the intended purpose sometimes. If you did read my post, you would have been kinder to notice that that was what I was trying to mention and imply from my experience. Like I mentioned before, It is NO USE having SO much info(some wrong or non-working) scrambled all about with different variants with no proper target or what it is about. Do you know that if a person literally typed out a single page with proper working methods with so called "spoon-feeding explanations steps to a noob" like how I explained in my post(for the Hboot and CID) there would have been lesser space taken up in the forum and it would be BENEFICIAL to one and all who visit the forum. (also for those who don't have Mbps connections to see, again, misguiding or poorly shot videos on the same)

Don't you think those 4 or 5 points that I posted are obviously what is ideal for any/everyone. List of programs for each purpose, steps to do, Note down the About Phone info, Hboot, CID versions, correct files to download for the same, how and when to do the backup, rooting, But still if the methods were already there, there would be no need to revert or go in for warranty anyway! Tell me you see these important instructions in the best of threads up front and at the very beginning and I'll know how well you read those 20 tabs. Still don't trust me?!:(

I'll be frank with you, a person who is pretty confident too will come in, read, try, scream at least a million WTFs?!! and different profanities by the time he is done with just one part of the process, would have lost half or more of hair and brain cells, and read a "right-looking" thread which ends up being the wrong thread, mess up his phone, beg on the forums, curse in his heart, still beg more and by the end of it all would say $cr3W T#!s and maybe either kill his/her phone or himself/herself! :( lol I hope that's not the intention of the forum though, or a new depopulation method?! :laugh:MAO

However, Please tell me you don't believe I am asking to be SPOON FED according to you, and that I came and posted WITHOUT READING ANY THREAD. Just like you, I usually take just a day or two continuously reading stuff, actually more than 20 tabs at a given time to get a hold on any new topic and I'm usually done within that time because it's easy to identify the right stuff for me to get the various topics and have an understanding of what I need to know, but I cannot say the same for this experience. Multiple tabs reading of utter confusion, misguidance, so many pages bookmarked, read through, agonizing to learn, that I am asking something about a person's head(Evo 3D GSM) and two eyes(Dual boot GB/ICS) straight up and I am instead replied to with directions to a person's... tail(don't ask!), or what one or many persons think is a person's head, only directed to the wrong head! :o You get the picture?

Sorry for being a bit coarse, but I hope it puts my point through clearly or better for people to understand the flaw and rectify it, instead of trying to justify it. For that matter, when you see the so called multitude of videos(it's a PITA on 512kbps), which are supposed to be by people doing this stuff day in and day out, Just see the number of times, they stutter through their own stuff! They cannot go through the process correctly, forget a program in between, forget to post the links up front, or steps, things like commands and stuff are thrown about in different graphics! Are you serious?! Then go about it all haphazardly and then think to themselves, they HELPED someone!!! Boy if they were a Driving instructor there would be lesser population!:rolleyes:

Just for entertainment purposes, This is how it would go:

noobie driver: What do I do sir?

Instructor: Well you put on your seat belt first, start the car, change the gear, slam down the accelerator.. oh $#!t wait I forgot to tell the mechanic to change the brakes, umm... adjust your mirrors, umm... oh yeah press the brakes, umm... there's a truck heading into us!

noobie driver: WTF?! What is the brakes and where is it sir?!

Instructor: What do you mean you don't know what or where the brakes are?!! It's that damn pedal down there you Noobie Nut job!!! (looks down) Oh s#!t!!! I forgot to refit the brake pedal that I took out too!!! Never mind Bubba say your prayers!!!

CRAAAAASHHHHH!

This is about the same scenario that's happening! Like with computers, just because I know a little, if I instruct someone who has never touched a computer or maybe owns a computer and types stuff on it, blindly saying, put the power cord into the SMPS socket, take the RAM out, clean it and RAM It into slot 1 not slot 2, the one next to the CPU is slot 1. Replace the CMOS battery, Check if Hard disk is connected, Check if DVD writer is SATA/IDE! Clear the CMOS jumper by moving it from pins 1-2 to 2-3 and then back to 1-2. Oh, but first, pull out the power cord before you do! Do you know what reaction I would get?! I would probably hear a BUZZ, see some sparks and have one less person and one less machine on the planet!

Now I know when reading this long post, some might be with their noses pointing in the air saying, Oh we don't have the time for this nonsense! But seriously, you think that others are enjoying the experience like I'm going through?! The neck, back and headache I'm having right now is all proof to it and if experienced by you, you'll definitely not hesitate to even spoon feed me! All this stuff will just put the TRUE picture of how things are, well, at least for now. If Anyone patient enough and want to seriously change things to an optimal world situation, and willing to guide me through though, I will STILL be Patiently WAITING for your knowledgeable inputs.

BTW, still the file factory downloads keep timing out or failing before the end and after three attempts, that too through DTA(down them all) to avoid any failure, it is coming as a failed download or simply beeps completed, but with a html of 21kb!!! Torrents Anyone?! Also for the said Hboot version and CID of my device(or am I supposed to change it?) Which are the RUUs to download? Shooter U GB/ICS Europe or Asia? I am guessing a backup of my own GB would be useful for the future just in case so how to do the needful would be good. Thanks once again for your patience on whoever gets to read this and will as usual appreciate ANY inputs on the same. Cheers and God Bless.
