Hi,

ich have a big Problem. Ich have a LG D-955 and i was rooting it and install TWRP.

1. i´ve done a backup with twrp

2. i flashed my lg with [ROM]D95920h T-Moblie Only D-FUSE Stock rooted KK

my provider in austria is t-mobile, it was a big mistake that i flashed this rom on my phone. i dont saw, that is the rom for D959 and not for D955.

My problem is, that i have no signal with the austrian t-mobile. i can enter my pin code but, there is no network for me.

i tried to flashed the 955.kdz on my phone, but it doesnt work. I can only flash the T-Mobile USA D95910c_00.kdz.

LG Mobile Support Tool think that i have a 959 phone, so i can not do an upgrade with my imei =(

is there is a chance to use t-mobile Austria or not?

How can i change the modem.bin?

so i have no idea what can i do, is there any one who can help me?

Thank you

Can't you restore your twrp back up? Also this is probably the 15~20th thread with this exact problem. You're all flashing things blindly, when all the threads say in big colorful bold letters what phones etc they're for. So I'm sure if you look around the threads you'll find an answer quickly.
[LG G Flex] wbruna:
i was reading all this threads, but there was nothing who can help me.

i've restored my backup, but my phone doesnt boot. there is only the lg picture.

sorry, but its not ok what you are saying. i know i flashed the wrong rom, but your answer is not really help.

:rolleyes:
[LG G Flex] Visa Declined:
The problem is that we keep having people making threads here saying that they flashed the wrong rom to their phone. I've never seen any subforum on XDA where people are constantly doing this "by accident". I hope you find a way to fix your device.
[LG G Flex] oldschool17217:
I can help you but if you can move up to the memory rom? if so then I have the D955 and then install this rom and you should be ok

Actually my answer was helpful, it just required YOU to actually read the thread. I didn't spoon feed you the answer you mean?

[FONT=&quot]I honestly have no idea what you're referring to here, but honestly you should send a PM to someone here you trust about your concerns. At the end of the day, we can't fix something that we don't know is a problem.

I always read and reply to PMs.

As for this thread, it's still a great thread and I would hate for it to die after all the hard work of categorizing and organizing the great work of moderators past and present, so I will take over the thread if you do not want to continue updating it or no longer feel the passion of "gold digging" if you will. Let me know or [MENTION=1707123]M_T_M[/MENTION] and we go from there.

I'm currently chatting with M_T_M regarding this.

I would also hate to see the good things in this thread go, I also want it to continue in a decent vein. I'm gonna wait for a bit and see what happens

[Off-topic] jugg1es:
M_T_M it's not going to work, there is no going back and ot has gone downhill too far for any sort of recovery, judging from the lack of listening that goes on and the overzealous moderation I've seen lately (ie a screenshot of a poxy benchmark deleted and the post that quoted it, then a thread closure because 3 people said they were out) is just the sign of things to come. I have respect for a lot of mods here unfortunately not enough of them to make this an unbiased LULZ thread. The conversation has gone in ot, the LULZ are dead and the good people of ot are being driven away in droves for fear of being infracted for stupid stuff and or possible ban. Just stick a fork in me now, I'm done. I'm going to go and decide if this is still the sandwich shop for me (@conantroutman) before I decide whether to get my account deleted. So long, it was fun a while back. Glenn

LOLQUE??!! :eek::eek:

But, but, but...u mad tho? :confused:

What ever happened to "let's talk about it" and "if you see something that requires the MC attention, report it" discussion we had? :confused:

I see your point about the post with the benchmark being deleted (not necessary IMHO) but...there's still LULZ to be had and LUL we shall, mate!!

Don't rage quit on me, man!!! You are better than this...:rolleyes:
[Off-topic] jugg1es:
Its not a rage quit, it's simply a case of lost heart in the system. It doesn't work, ot gets all the 10 posters, then the first thing that happens is the dev threads full up with questions pretty much unchecked. During my lurking it seems that ot has become the home for moderation and dev threads have been left to become a mess. The rom q&a threads (which is a good idea) aren't used and the actual dev threads fill up. I'm no developer but I have become an experienced abuser of the platform, searching for anything in a thread has become a complete nightmare, search for a solution to any problem and you end up faced with hundreds of questions all asking the same thing with hundreds of different answers. OK so the gtfo and go use the search may have come across as harsh but it did force people to search(me included, I asked a fair few stupid questions) it was the harshness that forced me to learn how to use the search effectively, that effectiveness has been eroded. I know this has become a 'family friendly' forum but with the average age of people wanting to mod their devices getting lower at an alarming rate it seems that "give me nao" attitude of today's youth is being pandered to.

I came here to rid myself of sense on the saga, I found a community of people that helped by making me do, great conversation and friendship. It was an escape from the "give me nao" I have all day at work and that attitude is something I spend hours confronting and helping people do themselves. This is what xda was to me, now it's just a "ok I'll do all your searching for you and link you to the post 2 above yours".

Rage.... No, certainly not my friend.

Ok,

I've seen the back and forth in this thread.

Now I used to be an off topic denizen, as well as the Market Place when it existed. I know exactly how it was moderated and what it "used to be like."

I know the current people who moderate this section now, and honestly they deserve more respect than this. They are not here to make YOUR life hard, or to "ruin the fun," but to get moderation done just like any other section. Moderating is thankless job, and the one thing you do that someone doesn't agree with you get to hear about in posts like these.

You might take a step back and look to see if it's not XDA that's changed so much, but maybe you have too. Now I started this thread originally, because I thought it would be humorous collection of moderation rants and closes, and I wanted to contribute to the OT section of XDA.

Now I contribute as a moderator.

You've listed the reasons why you come to XDA and OT, but what do you contribute to the community? This IS a ragequit and honestly it's a poor way to deal with things. You need to use communication to handle the issues you feel are present instead of this big dramatic reasoning for leaving.

If you are going to leave, then I guess you gotta leave. There is no one person bigger than XDA.

But instead of being upset that about what XDA isn't doing for you, you might consider how you can contribute even more to the community, and try to actually get in communication with the moderating crew, you might be surprised how approachable they are.

I am saying this not as a moderator (this is not even my section), but as an XDA community member.

I would challenge you to take more responsibility in this community, and not observe the happenings around you and decide on an apathetic exit.

You are always welcome to give new ideas, to open up Q&A threads, to help out in so many ways, but just saying "the system doesn't work" and taking your ball and going home doesn't really help, does it?

There have always been "give me answers now" people on this site and there will always be, it is up to the community as a whole to make this about personal responsibility, and if you've given up the good fight, then we will continue anyways.

The choice, however, is always yours.

If you are not going to update this thread anymore, I can have someone transfer it back to me, but I'd rather you continue if you're up for it.

This made me laugh and cringe at the same time... There are maybe 3 mods in OT that deserve respect, the rest, not so much. I was raised you have to give respect to get respect and most give none so they get none in return. They won't be named because I'll undoubtedly be banned again for it.

Being a mod is a power position that many mods take advantage of, if you disagree just look at some of the posts linked in this very thread, they do the exact things that they have infracted and banned other users for! Trolling threads (in many cases unlocking a locked thread to do so) with senseless memes and degrading members with their replies in some cases, that behavior doesn't deserve respect at all. Being a mod some of you should really learn to lead by example and stop setting bad examples for other members. If you wouldn't want a "regular" member to do it, as a mod you definitely shouldn't be doing it... Not aimed at you Orangekid, just a general statement to all mods alike
[Off-topic] orangekid:
I understand completely.

I think we're on different sides of the fence on some of this. The bottom line is I know how the moderation game works and these guys bust their butts to make this the best place for mobile development, period.

Regardless, they are all open to communication and the MC is ALWAYS open as well.

At the end of the day we need to come together as a community.

It seems to be doing little good to go on and on about it here though honestly (me included), the most benefit would be to PM an MC member on this matter.

They will always listen, and you can take that to the bank.

But public ragequit does not resolve it.

That's the last I'll say on the matter, my inbox is always open too.
[Off-topic] flastnoles11:
I her what you're saying, I mod on a pretty big sports forum (over 2 million members now I believe) so I get what it takes, but when mods do one thing and then ban a member for that exact same thing it makes the mods in general look pretty immature and frankly, dumb...

It would be great if everybody could come together, but until some of the mods change their "I'm right about everything, you're wrong because I'm a mod" attitude is not going to happen.

I think the biggest point people are trying to make about the OT situation as a whole is that in OT, a post doesn't even have to be reported and within the hour it's gone, where as in dev threads you can report posts and they'll still be there days later. If a little more of that attention was spent on the parts of the site THAT ACTUALLY MATTER, there would be less of this going on...

This is the only forum I've ever been a part of where there is more mod attention in an OT section than in parts of the forum that actually pertain to the existence of the site in the first place.... Not saying ot shouldn't be modded the way it is, but the rest of the site should have those same standards and no matter what any mod says, it simply isn't.

Mods should also be held to a higher standard and when they're allowed to troll threads with memes while other users get infractions for the same behavior something is horribly wrong there
[Off-topic] GermainZ:
Guys, OT is getting the same attention as the other forums we moderate. We don't go checking every new post, though, which is why reports are important... Obviously, if we get a report we tend to keep an eye on the thread for a bit, which isn't very hard to do with notifications.

The point is: OT is not special. Really. It gets the same amount of attention as other forums and despite what you may think, we mostly rely on reports.

If you feel an issue you've reported hasn't been resolved, then please contact the moderator who took it. It might not require an action for some reason, or it might be still an open issue... So contact the acting mod and you'll get an explanation.

Similarly, if you have an issue with a particular mod, contact him and let him know about it, politely. If you think that's of no use, there's the moderator committee as well.

Also, about the spamming of memes: we haven't been doing that as of late. It was mostly done to give some lulz for all parties involved, but you didn't like it and we did listen.
[Off-topic] vanessaem:
Lol...what are you talking about? What mod is doing something that's worth a ban?

I'm sorry to break it to you but we have way too many forums to cover to focus all of our attention here. Please come out of the OT forum every once in a while and you will see that moderating goes on elsewhere. Like I posted on another thread, OT gets away with a lot more than any other forum. So much so that some come from other forums and feel this is the place in which to break the rules and do whatever they feel like. I hope we all know that this isn't how it's supposed to be.

Ok no more memes and trolling from mods but I'm pretty sure that won't make anyone happy either. *Sigh* :rolleyes:

I'm very rarely in off-topic... And I didn't say it was worthy of a ban, but it is actions that others have been infracted and even banned for so...

And very good, though I seriously doubt the immaturity in some will allow them to not troll threads and post dumb memes while telling others to not do the same... Lol, double standards at its finest... Should be one set of rules for all, but sadly it's not... I believe you even posted in another thread today that members shouldn't troll threads and post the ib4l posts and post their memes but I've seen you do that very thing (examples can be found in this very thread)

Seems to me the mods need an overhaul if most of you believe that you can do what you tell others not to do. I don't really care what you all do, like I said, I'm rarely ever in ot anymore, I much prefer to stick to my device forum where some lighthearted trolling doesn't earn you a vacation, where the mod doesn't tell you not to do something and then turn around and do that very thing.

If regular users shouldn't be doing it, mods definitely shouldn't be doing it don't you think? (that's a rhetorical question by the way, no answer required because we ask know the answer don't we) *sigh* :rolleyes:
[Off-topic] vanessaem:
Ok I've done the very same thing somewhere. No one can seem to find that many posts of mine funny or trollish enough to post in this thread but somehow you found some examples...ok. Anyway, we seem to be going around in circles here. The mods are out to get you, some feel victimized, the mods are the enemy except a chosen few, xda is going down the tubes because moderators are moderating, circles and ponies. :eek:
[Off-topic] flastnoles11:
Again nobody said anything like that, but it doesn't surprise me that you would twist everything to better suit you...

And don't act like you've never posted memes into threads (following the moderator crowd as to not feel left out I'm sure) I've seen it just like many others have, you're not the lone mod in ot that doesn't do it... Just because you're not funny enough to make this thread doesn't mean you haven't done it..
[Off-topic] mark manning:
You are correct. There have been times when we ask members to not do something and then went ahead and did it ourselves. That isn't really leading by example and we have listened to that complaint. It recently has been brought up with in our team chat and we listened to the complaint. We will no longer be spamming threads with memes. The only reason we really did it in the first place was at the request of others.

With that being said I am glad you brought this up. It is a perfect example of how if you all feel that something is out of place you guys can come to us. You didn't like us doing something that you guys were told not to do (even if it was at the request of others) and we agreed with the statement and listened to you all changing our ways. I know some of you have an unfavorable view of me, but please understand I always try to stay impartial and if any of you ever bring an issue to my attention I will do whatever is in my power to address it properly. So will the others in my team. If they don't, feel free to report the PM or contact our team leader [MENTION=1079681]crachel[/MENTION] as well.

As the others have said, from a team standpoint, the OT forum is nothing more than a very minor blimp on our radar. We have 70 other forums each with their own set of issues to deal with. To us, ot is nothing more than a forum on the list of forums we moderate. We really do not see it has any different than any other forum on XDA.

So I will ask that you please bring us any complaints you guys have before it builds up and explodes. Once people reach the point of no return generally there is no fixing the situation. It is something like that we would like to avoid and I assume so would you all. Us mods are truly here for you guys and we all know we wouldn't have xda without the members
[Off-topic] vanessaem:
Such anger. Too bad. So I posted a meme a few times. BTW...I never said anyone shouldn't post memes. :rolleyes:

Oh boy...
[Off-topic] flastnoles11:
Thank you for at least standing up and admitting to it instead of back pedaling like the other that decided to reply with a condescending, I'm better than you, attitude. (the exact thing I was talking about so it really got a good chuckle out of me) me and you have had words in the past, but you just earned some respect with your reply.

I honestly think it would make a difference if users didn't see mods do the exact thing they tell others not to do, maybe not much, but I believe it'll make a difference. I understand that being a mod is not a perfect science and mistakes will be made (being a mod elsewhere I know it's not the easiest thing sometimes), but honestly one of the biggest mistakes a mod can make is being above the rules they are supposed to enforce, one of them was being broken by mods regularly, seeing that change is a step in the right direction imo
[Off-topic] vanessaem:
I nor any other mod thinks we're better than anyone in here. I'm not sure where that's coming from. In fact, that's not how I think members of this site should treat each other. I think everyone should be treated with respect but that works both ways. The thing I dislike most of all is the flaming of other users, not just here but everywhere else we moderate.

I used to like to participate in some of the threads but it's disheartening to come to a thread to see neverending "mods suck" talk. It's become quite toxic all around and it really shouldn't be that way.

These 10 posters you all speak of, those get removed and that's the majority of the moderating that's done in this forum for the most part these days.

I haven't moderated OT since 2012 so I honestly don't know when and where the big divide started. Back then there were some fun times, I'll have to admit, but there was still a lot of ugliness that shouldn't have happened. As we've said constantly, we don't moderate this forum any different from anywhere else.

If you feel you're being disrespected, by a moderator for any reason, contact that them or if you feel as if you can't do that, contact a neutral party. We're not here to disrespect anyone or give people grief. I really hate that there's an "us against them" mentality that has been built up around here. Even though you may not think so but we're reasonable people and we're here if you need us. I hope one day there's an end to the disharmony. :(
[Off-topic] flastnoles11:
I too wish for that, but sadly it won't happen, that's just the way things are (f the police mentality, with you all being the police)...

Most people respect the mods, some don't, but most do, but the ones that get disrespected generally deserve it from what I've seen... Like I said before, you have to give respect to get it, if you disrespect somebody or reply in a condescending way you have to expect to get the same thing back.

Not saying you're disrespectful at all, but your replies to my comments were condescending to say the least (not to mention you didn't actually respond to anything I said and just made assumptions about what I do on this site and couldn't have been further from what I actually said.... Many people feel the same, give respect you'll get it, don't you won't... But don't be disrespectful or condescending to a user and then turn around in a hissy and ban them when they do the same back...

Not saying you've done it, but I've seen it with my own eyes, a mod disrespects a user, use gets upset and does the same, mod promptly bans said user... Kind of a golden rule moment, treat others the way you want to be treated kind of thing, if you're rude don't expect people to be nice in response, it won't happen..

Thanks for hearing me out though, it really is generally appreciated. Good to know some of you are interested enough to actually listen to what we feel is PART of the problem (I say part because the mods aren't the only problems, us "regular" users a definitely a big part of it to, if we weren't there would be no need for you
[Off-topic] undercover:
Heh, don't always agree with Flast, but this time he is spot on. Vanessa, indeed, you replies were condescending, you didn't even notice that. [MENTION=1707123]M_T_M[/MENTION], "let's talk" won't change anything, can't you see? XDA just doesn't see or want to see things from our standpoint of view.
[Off-topic] mark manning:
Well to me it seems like we are talking. However, if you automatically assume we won't be able to see things from your point of view you won't be able to add anything constructive to the conversation. I would suggest keeping an open mind because, at the moment, you have all of ours' attention.

If you have any, this would be a good time to get issues you have been seeing off of your chest. Please tell us what is bothering you but at the same time please keep it courteous and constructive. We are all ears. I can't promise that just because you think something needs to be changed that it will be, but I can promise we will at least listen to your complaints and address them properly and professionally.
