If they can Google and get to XDA, then they can search. When they sign up, they have to agree and abide by the rules. One of the rules is to search before you post.

Yes I know they make money from traffic, but that does not take away from their very own rules. To me, anything or one that only takes, with the sole purpose of self, without any intention of giving back, is a leech. I'm not going around telling people in threads they are leeches. I'm stating my opinion in a thread where we are discussing those people. For the most part, I just ignore them. At no point did I say that I was trying to be helpful. You telling me that it isn't helpful, is in itself unhelpful.

We disagree, and I'm fine with that. I've managed forums too, and I still made people search if the information was there. Thousands of posts telling people to search isn't helpful either, but if you ignore people long enough, and just give them a link to the rules, they get it over time.
[T-Mobile LG G3] Richieboy67:
First off my first sentence was in reply to your "Leech" comment. Someone joining a forum to ask a single question they need help with does not make them a leech. This is a tech forum and the main purpose is for everyone to be able to discuss technology, ask for help, etc.

As for what I said about being helpful I was being polite. It really isn't how I would describe someone calling someone a leech. I am very glad you do not call people that here directly. :)

Hey, I am new here and have an s5 that is stuck in a boot loop.

Your reply - Do a search you leech!

:laugh:
[T-Mobile LG G3] dictionary:
To that, I'd say "Reboot to recovery, try wiping cache and dalvik. Reboot. See if that works. If not, you may have to wipe data. You'll lose all your information, but you'll retain photos and such. Next time do a search though, rules of the forums are too search first"

Then again, you're just a leech. ;)
[T-Mobile LG G3] Richieboy67:
Just to clarify, I do not have an s5 or a boot loop problem and I always search. :) I try to help out when I can but I take away far more from this place then I give.

Your answer was not too bad. You could even get away with the leech part that way.

I say everyone uses this post from now on to complain about people not using search so when someone does break the golden rule we could have maybe 1 person explain it to them instead of 15. lol Everyone else can just come back here to vent.

[T-Mobile LG G3] razz1:
Well I guess I will say this...

I have actually had people I don't know send me a PM asking questions. Some of the questions have been very noobish and obvious. This is certainly due to the fear of public bashing if asked in an open thread. I answer all of the questions regardless. Their will always be those people that do this continually and won't help themselves but I won't judge that. That's not why I'm here. Those people will come and go and this sort of thing will be in any forum.

The best thing I think I can do is answer the questions and be helpful because the knowledge they pick up may help them to be the next developer or give back to the community in other ways. You never know who the next best person is and it may be that noob that just asked the stupidest question in the world.

We have all started somewhere. Some of us started hard and some easy but we all learn.[emoji2]

cant have said it better. more important is to maintain civility and decency at all times. being rude never equals to being smart. lot of folks enjoy doing this on forums , i can bet i will also be slammed just for saying this but i couldnt resist appreciating the reasons why u posted it.
[T-Mobile LG G3] force70:
Being new is one thing..even though your supposed to read and follow the rules. .ie search..not double posting the same question every 3 hrs etc.

If your new...your new and i usually check the users profile before responding to very simple questions..we were all new at one point and i take it easy on the noobs. I will always help..even alot on pm but also remind them of the rules and etiquette so perhaps they get better at things.

Now..if youve been here awhile and are flat out too lazy to attempt to help yourself, expect to be spoonfed the simplest answers and just generally have alot of self entitlement. ...well thats unacceptable.

it equates to excess spam usually in development threads..wasted posts, repetitive posts annoyed developers and just makes things harder for everyone. if its a legit issue..and it is alot of the time you will get as much help as i can give you though.

Im quite direct both online and in person but if people equate that to being rude,brash or even nasty I can live with that...that's your problem not mine. Any personal opinion towards other members is not appropriate behaviour on a development forum..this is not facebook (thank god).

My tenure on here and some 2000+ thanks should be an indicator of the fact that i like being helpful..i beleive in helping people help themselves however..when possible and appropriate.

Someone said members should be quiet and not act like mods...well we the users make or break the forums..its simple math..its up to us also to make them the best they can be.

My personal views only..agree or disagree its all good.

[T-Mobile LG G3] jerseykat1:
I visit xda regularly, I ask, I answer, I help in anyway I can..

Personally someone asking a question that has been answered a million times does not bother me. Most of the time the answer to the question is just 2 or 3 letters (Yes or no).. But some reason some folks (i would rather call them jackasses) prefer to type out a long ass post bashing the person asking the question, causing the thread or subject to be drawn out even further..

doesn't matter how many times you whine about someone asking the same question. You will NEVER EVER EVER change things. Has it helped? Really, has your whinning, temper tantrums, and or bashing stopped the redundant question asking? NO it has not.. I get more annoyed with the bashing than the question asking.

Why can't you just be nice, answer the question or STFU.

BTW not everyone has the time to figure out how to search this forum, it's not as intuitive as some of you may think.
[T-Mobile LG G3] kafepuya:
take into account how many users XDA has, then factor in how many questions about a specific issue that user may have. After that, consider how many of the thousands of users have the same question, and probably have asked it, odds are that those questions have already been asked AND answered.

Now, imagine being in a thread with a huge number of participants. Say, CM 12 a current generation Samsung device. And with a specific nightly, a Bluetooth bug is found. The ideal scenario is that a person that finds the bug, reports it with a logcat. Because if you have developed anything for Android, you would know that troubleshooting anything without a logcat or last_kmsg is impossible.

Yet instead of that happening, say 30% of the thousands who downloaded that nightly simply ask "has anyone noticed a bug with Bluetooth? When I connect, etc, blah blah...". To that, add the hundreds who respond to the bug with "I can confirm Bluetooth bug"

After that, throw in the numerous dozens of thread policemen quoting and replying to Every. Single. Question with "this has already been answered" and "you need to search"

So after that, here comes Curious Cody, wondering what the difference is between X ROM and Y ROM. Maybe he wants to know what bugs X ROM has. But when he searches for "bugs" on the thread, he gets hundreds of posts with the word "bug", and between those hundreds of posts, he has to search whether there is a solution to the bug in question.

TL;Dr Just search, and stop trying to warm us to the idea that it's OK to ask without searching.

What you don't understand...

I created an account here specifically to apply to this thread:

This morning my LG G3 from TMobile got an update. Other than knowing it was around 250mb, I have no other useful information. So naturally my first inclination is to Google for what happened.

This site and this thread is the very first thing that popped up in my search. So instead of finding an answer to my question, I find a bunch of people *****ing about how nobody uses search.

Here's what you people don't grasp:

When you answer someones question, you are answering it not only for them BUT ALSO FOR PEOPLE WHO ARE USING GOOGLE IN THE FUTURE.

So shut up, answer the damn questions and let Google work for you, not against you. You're being just as bad as those people who respond to a troubleshooting thread with "Nevermind! I got it working!" with no additional information.

Lord forbid someone might need the information at a later point in time.

Now I'm off to find a site that's actually useful. Doesn't look like this one fits the bill.
[T-Mobile LG G3] ThePagel:
What you and other people don't understand is this isn't a average user trouble shooting site. Any answered questions that doesn't involve development in one way or another is done out of kindness from other users. Update information is not what this site is about but you can find unofficial change logs that people threw together. I would point you at the change log but since you expect other people to do all the heavy lifting and not contribute in any way I won't. Honestly you and people like you are the reason the op is more wrong than right. Being rude to people asking for help is wrong, if you don't want to answer don't. Same goes to you if you don't want to contribute and just scavange from google don't complain.
[T-Mobile LG G3] force70:
seeing as how you new perhaps you did not realize that what you dont seem to grasp is that no one ever said not to ask questions...of course thats okay...theres alot of things that need to be asked.

Whats not okay is when that same question has been asked...and answered mutliple upon multiple times and people are too lazy to even bother too look and see if thats the case prior to asking yet again.

This site exists for developers but is also a place to learn..anything i have picked up about this hobby has been learned here. I searched and read and searched and read...for years and still do so.

And yes on occasion i need to ask something..after ive searched as much as i can and come up empty.

This is what is encouraged here, not to keep quiet and never ask for help but to try and help yourself first. I think that is a reasonable request.

If thats too much for you to handle then yes this site is probably not for you.

I hope you hang around long enough to see that its a great site though.

Damn, there goes the ONE guy we needed here...
[T-Mobile LG G3] jordanlund:
No, what's not ok is to rake someone over the coals for asking a question that you have seen multiple times but they clearly have not.

The correct answer is "This question has already been asked and answered, here's a link to the correct answer."

That way, people coming here in the future get USEFUL information and not a *****fest.
[T-Mobile LG G3] force70:
Yep that works....and ive done that exact thing countless times. But they havent seen the answer because they didnt bother looking.

The question is why couldnt they have attempted to find the answer themselves..this is part your not getting because your new here and havent seen it 1000 times.

People EXPECT to be spoonfeed the answers which is not okay. Dont be so lazy and expect others to solve your problems for you...at least attempt to help yourself first.

I fail to see why that is too much to ask from anyone?

[T-Mobile LG G3] Swizzle82:
I didn't want to say anything here as I've been keeping an eye on things here for a while now. Ive had a couple of run-ins with some members here. These were more of the "testing what I'm saying" or from the spelling and grammar police variety. I've never had someone be a D to me because of asking questions. I've seen it done but not to me.

I NEVER use the search button on the forum only google. I read through what I can of an Op that intrigues my needs and read through the replies for possible answers or solutions. I only ask questions to something that I need clear clarification on from what I've read.. The problem with searching here is that there are way too many threads with keywords one might enter.

Which brings me to what I don't like..

I don't like people starting new threads for something that can be answered from reading the first couple of pages of threads. To me this creates more confusion and pushes useful threads down to the bottom where people tend to not look after a while. Asking a question in a thread that has like 30 pages doesn't bother me at all. They can get overwhelming at times to sift through.

As far as being a D, I don't see the point in starting drama if no one has started drama with you. If you don't like or don't want to answer someones question don't at all, if you do then answer it as useful as possible. Its that simple.
[Moto 360] ksc6000:
The main reason I bought this watch was so that I could reply to hangouts messages from my voice. This works reasonably well, but with one major problem:

If the person who I'm conversing with sends another message while I'm voice replying, my wrist vibrates (so I know I got another message), and the voice reply seems to work, but I never get the green checkmark and it never goes through. Then I have to try to reply again, but if they message me again (and you know how people talk in very short bursts in chat), it makes it nearly impossible to reply.

Has anyone else encountered this?
[Moto 360] johnus:
Yep. Common problem that has been mentioned many times both here and at Motorola's site.

Hey NeroD,

you are using the wrong version.sdk_int in the build.prop of your ROM.

You are using "17" which is related to Android 4.2 (Jelly Bean) and not "19" as it's used by Android 4.4 (KitKat).

This forces many applications to not work as expected.
