FAKE????

is this a fake??? even final roms still have bugs!!!

what build number does it have??? did you get it from HTC directly?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] TehPenguin:
"Cruel" is some of the n00b questions that we have to put up with (just have a look at THIS thread - the number of people that believe that the ROM is real!)

No, I will not explain - but you're welcome to PM me with your guesses :P

(ps. If you do know the answer(s), don't spoil it for everyone else!)
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] chico83:
very funny

I'm spending much of time in this forum...such jokes should be done somewhere else!!!!!!! thanks for your understanding!
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] TehPenguin:
This is not a joke - it is SERIOUS

Do realise that, in the last hour, Midget's announcement has gained 10% of its total views. This is quite impressive as that last hour constitutes a mere 0.2% of the time it has existed.

Personally I believe that this thread is quite a success...
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] kchris:
YES! Because of this topic! I thought xda is a place where such 'jokes' are removed!

@TehPenguin

@Midget_1990

Even if you have a official release it doesn't say it's bugs free :D

For sample: Why does Windows needs to be updated otherwise? :D

Cheers,

i dont see any link to the "ultimate rom" . this is indeed a joke on all those poor fellas coming in looking to get the so called wm6 final bug free rom.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] WRaymond:
Please help me!!!

After flashing my Universal with this ROM, my coffeemaker stopped working and my refrigerator keeps rebooting!
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] wout:
@ TehPenguin

Are you in advertising ?

As I understand, most if not all rom makers enjoy the attention and maybe even adoration they receive.

This, to me is proven by "handing" out their work and asking for replies, in an open forum community.

Therefore they could / should also expect some very silly noob questions.

(I think even the rommakers were ones Noobs themselves)

Don't get me wrong, I really appreciate the marvelous work they do, and they deserve every praise they get for that.

But please don't wine.

Greetings,

Wout

And what do you expect from us who are "INEXPERIENCED"?

Keep in mind that people will keep on joining this forum because their "interest" Which some how driven from INEXPERIENCE.

I thought this forum open for all, including US!

This Thread just a LIE. Then what next??
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] cottinghamm:
Dear Sir, I think that he is simply trying to highlight the extensive amount of knowledge and tools available to anyone, including those of us who have a lot of experience.

What is frustrating the devs is that people new to the forums simply don't use this info, it covers everything.

I appreciate this little bit of humour even if for a minute I really thought that there might be something new to play with this evening ....
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] dianri:
Maybe i was just too exciting for what i just found from Google "Final ULTIMATE - No Bugs HTC Universal WM6 ROM", and shocked for whats truly inside.

But hey, people thinks differently right?!

Thank you Sir cottinghamm,

Forum Search Problems

Ok, I'm really getting fed up with this stupid search feature.

I am IN any one of the threads and click the "Search this thread" and get a little search box for entering the search parameter or "Advanced Search".

No matter what I put in this text field, I NEVER get a result. EVER. Even if I go to the top navigation bar and try to search all forums I never ever get a result.

Is there a special trick to making this stupid thing work!?!?!:mad:
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] AlanJC:
When you say you never get a result, I assume you mean you don't find what you were looking for.

In which case, you are not searching for the right thing. Try searching for a different term someone else may use to describe the same thing.

Either that, or you're simply crap at the internet, or computers.

Sometimes it's the latter, and people should just get a Mac and a Palm.

This forum is for developers, and technically minded people, most have not got the time, or will to baby step complete novices through the most simple of processes simply because people have no ambition to learn how to do something by reading the wiki themselves, and through trial and error.

Then there's the non-english speaking members, and while they are welcome, they should understand this is an english speaking site, and all the help posts, and documentation is in english. Perhaps they should find someone that they know who can speak it to help them, rather than post hundreds of cryptic questions that appear to be stupid to the more astute members.

Either way, I get the feeling this thread has been totally lost on most people.

It's not a joke, it's not a fake, it's simply a headline to grab people's attention, and make them read the info already on this site to stop dumbass people from asking dumbass questions.

Comprende?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] DaVince:
Try something else on your search.

eg.

Try searching for "Universal". If you still don't get a result (which is impossible).. then it could be your browser, browser settings.. or something. I never had a problem with the "Search" feature.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] EastExpert:
Then, it failed to achieve whatever goal it was meant to achieve. It did p!ss people off, though.

With all due respect,

* fake is something that is not what it says on the tin, so this thread is a fake.

* joke is something you make on people so you can laugh. The "more astute" members took the p!ss on the "less astute", so this thread is a joke.

As I mentioned before, it just grabbed people's attention to thoroughly p*ss them off (yes I can search for my topics, but this p*ssed me off as well, because I've been waiting for a new ROM to fix a non-working Wi-Fi and push e-mail, and this fake & joke thread just cried wolf and didn't bring any relief).

The intended goal - which seems to be "to force people to use the search and read the wiki" - failed miserably: those who already play by the book were insulted by "forcing them to read" things they already know, those who did not -- did not even close get to the idea.

The technique used is akin to what the universally hated spammers use -- grab your attention with a headline, then inside you find the same old Viagra and Cialis, or pump-and-dump stocks.

Why not just put a sticky thread instead next time that will bring the rules clear & well to the point. And instead of playing "1337" when next novice asks the questions, just refer them quietly by a link to that thread.

Elitist approaches are moronic and despicable. The forum is not for just the "1337" ones, it's for everybody. Wake up, smell the coffee.

1.what a rom base for this release ???????????

2.skivvies while but I do not believe in the fact that this variation had no problems ... even have their official releases ... to say nothing of this release
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] AlanJC:
Because it doesn't work, and people are too lazy to read the info already provided, and post loads of pointless threads asking the same questions week after week.

Urm... no, it's a forum for developers that started to be used more and more by average joe who just wanted to flash his device with something better than the stock builds. Like myself, and many other seasoned users, but the difference is we at least try to understand, and will search for our own answers first.

It's goal has always been to be a place where developers could share knowledge, and develop great things.

It's fast reaching a point where the noise and chatter created by the n00bs is drowning out the useful posts though.

If you have taken offense to the general feeling on here, then by all means feel free to start your own forum for the purpose of helping the useless and clueless people who can't even follow simple instructions on how to enter the bootloader 10 times a week.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] wyrm:
harsh but true.

Has any outspoken Joe User noted what the site is called yet?

Good. And let's stick to it.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] EastExpert:
People are energy saving by default. They will try to find a shortcut. If you quietly respond with a link to wiki, this will give a message that they should search it. If you rant then search for them, you never get the message through.

It originally was a forum made by developers and for developers. But developers need quality advanced testers for their ROMs to be worthy. It's beyond the possibilities of one and even a small group of men to find most of the bugs. And not-so-advanced testers are needed, too, -- because they will find more ROM bugs, doing more stupid things the advanced testers would not even try...

As such, the "Average Joe" of various levels is needed by the developers, as much as Joe needs developers work results. It's a symbiosis here. So it's for everyone because the masters chose so. And so let's push aside the arrogant attitude here and help each other.

Cheers.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] DaVince:
Yeah this sites for everyone, so stop fighting. There is this anti-noob/non-noob-friendly developer forum by midget www.htc-devs.com...

Just let this thread go! :D

Anyway... The Announcement Sticky does not serve it's purpose, but so does this thread, since, the moment they find out it's not a link to a file... well... you know the rest.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] mcstussy:
....

sigh.... Lame.

I have the universal because its good for busy people, I dont have time for 'examples' of irony or jokes, I come to this forum for new roms, everyone is a 'noob' at first no matter how 'l33t' they are at other areas of life, humour included. People who have been around the block should, by course, expect every tech forum to have its fair share of newbies asking dumb or obvious questions or posting in the wrong section, after all there 'noobs' and are still learning how things work in the forums choosen field (sometimes learning also how forums work). RTFM or the odd helpful but funny remark is fine and the done thing mostly, but creating a post which makes everyone open it with interest isn't something i personally find 'cool' or worth applauding, in fact i rarely comment on forums but this if left unchecked will bring the overall quality of the site down,as some users will decide if this kinda 'humour' recieves great praise to repeat it in ever more funny ways. Everytime i log on i see the post and think 'Ohh' then i realise 'oh' its our resident comedian and self appointed newbie educators 'funny' post....sigh... please lets stick to tech issues here no more trying to be the forum funny guy, its lame...

Its been said for and against on this. cant the mods just delete this cr*p thread now or retitle it joke or something
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] drego:

Irony

This thread in it's entirety is a great example of irony*.

* Those that still don't get it are probably why the first post was written. ;)
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] Timeshell:
No, you don't get it. I get NO RESULTS. Period.

I could search just for the word "a" or "the". I still get absolutely NOTHING.

I have tried over and over and over to search these forums but clicking on either the Search in the main navigation bar or the Search Forum and entering ANY search word. I literally get NOTHING.... NO RESULTS. :(

Oh, and btw, I have enough credentials to prove my technical expertise so don't go dissing me there. CCNA, MCSE, Programmer, Web Developer, DBA, etc, etc, etc and am presently an IT Manager.

Much Ado over nothing

Dear Developer friends, fellow users and not so advanced users.

"Knowledge is humility"

The more you know, the more you understand how less we know of more..

Confusing

Well for linguists this is easy

for a mathematician maths is easy and likewise for computer users ....

Making it short

If the questions of novice users offend u, dont answer em.

Someone will

So relax

The novice the experienced user the developer the techie all are a requirement.. for a forum of this dimensions

Lets shake hands and keep it that a ways.

My statements are aimed at pleasing all and displeasing none.

Lets stand united in smaller teams of interest

I do understand the purpose of this specific thread. But what you did was making fool of Junior members, and sadly specific member as well. People read this thread and gives opinion. So respect them, or correct them, better yet ignore them!
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] AlanJC:
Yes, some forum regulars needed the message too. I can think of 3 off the bat that are lazy, and ask the same questions every time there's a new ROM rather than just reading the thread.

I'm sure there are many more.

Basic crux of this is, you don't think it's funny or warranted, along with some others, yet some of us do.

Welcome to nature of opinions, enjoy your stay.

I can swear just as much as anyone else, but even I wouldn't write the word c**ts, how did that pass the filter - if there is one?

It's about time the MOD's shut down this thread rather than make it a sticky.

It's hard to explain my problems so please don't make things impossible for me.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] grayme:
Personally if you put this in your sig and asked a 'noobie' type question, you would not get treated like an idiot by me.

The problem we have is people who are just lazy and want answers on a plate rather than involving them using a bit of sense and a search or just reading through a thread (often a thread is very long and some just can't be bothered to read or search so post stupid questions which compound the length!)

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] EastExpert:
"Socrates" is correct in English, but in Russian Socrates is called "Socrat", which has implications with "sokraschat'" -- to shorten, reduce or abbreviate. I'm multilingual so I can make pun of certain things :)
