log into FB from the PC and view your profile, mouse over the status update from windows mobile and click "hide". It will then ask you if you want to prevent windows mobile from ever publishing status updates..click yes.

[Off-topic] Barkleyfan:
The disease started slowly for me. It began with the release of the Excalibur. Just a few mods, to get me by. Really picked up steam with my Kaiser. Josh and Shane had me hooked. I couldn't put my phone down. But I still wanted more. Enter the Moto Droid. No more RUU, no more need to sync at all. I can flash straight from my phone, and its faster than eva with Koush's little app called Rom Manager. Sadly, there's no hope of me beating this little disease. I thought maybe, possibly, switching to the Droid might be my salvation, since Moto gets little love on XDA. I thought wrong. I will likely die with a modded phone in my hands. Might be a htc, might be moto, who knows? All I know is it probably won't be a Apple.
[Off-topic] euromusic:
I started flashing when I got my ELF, after 2 years I bought a RAPHAEL and the flashing became twice as easy so now I flash a rom twice a day. Now I'm trying to learn how to make my own rom's so that I don't have to blame hotfile for being so slow :)

I'm euromusic and I also have ORD.

OMG shave that thing already ...
[Off-topic] dotnetguyaz:
Funny, that's my theme song too!!! Are you my much older, ORD disabled twin?!

That's another thought... we really need to start lobbying government to recognize ORD as an official disorder and start trying to claim disability... that way, we can have all day to try to "live" with our conditions. I'll work on AZ... Hell, you can get damn near anything on the ballot here. lol
[Off-topic] PG101:
And my theme moto is the last line on my siggy!!!!

Reason: At work.. at lunch breaks.. I am still on the PC... and people have started to think that I am working over time.. little do they know that I am hooked on to XDA... So they can all KMA!! LOL
[Off-topic] vmiguel:
Hmmm, I see... well, I'm divorcing... could there be a relation to my (previous) ORD condition?

If so, then it's a matter of start flashing as a mad man, anytime one wants a way out of a job, a marriage, or whatever? GREAT!!!:cool:
[Off-topic] TheRomMistress:
hahaha, its so fun to pick on Watcher.

@Watcher....I had read that desription when first admiting I had ORD...but completly forgot about it till now. I still want that song though...and no fair taking someone elses song - it needs to come from the heart
[Off-topic] dotnetguyaz:
Beleive me, youngin'... that song is straight from the heart... maybe in the cockles of our hearts, maybe below the cockles, maybe in the subcockle area. We don't know.

[Off-topic] dotnetguyaz:
What, you can't flash and lobby at the same time? Where is your love for us fellow afflicted?! Where is the passion to find a way to spend all day with your loving device (well, and maybe some other humans once in a while)? :D:D:D
[Off-topic] vmiguel:
That was a revelation. Thank you, Sir!
[Off-topic] TheRomMistress:
Steps to recovery ORD

1. Admit you are powerless over flashing—that our lives have become unmanageable.

2. Come to believe that a Power greater than ourselves could restore us to sanity.

3. Make a decision to turn our will and our lives over to the care of fellow ORD members

4. Make a searching and fearless inventory of apps and old roms and then archive them.

5. Admit to God, to ourselves, and to another human being the exact nature of our wrongs.

6. Humbly ask

Watcher

to remove our shortcomings.

7. Make a list of all persons or devices, we had harmed, and became willing to make amends to them all.

8. Make direct amends to such people wherever possible, except when to do so would injure them or there devices.

9. Continue to take personal inventory and when we were wrong promptly admitt it.

10. Stop searching through ROM posts and reflash to stock rom to improve our power to withdrawl from flashing.

11. Having had a spiritual awakening as the result of these steps, try to carry this message to others suffering from ORD, and to practice these principles in all our affairs.

12. Start this process over once a new ROM arives...

I am still on step 1...I will think about others once I hit step 7.

I think I may have ORD...

It all started when I got my g1. There were rumors that T-Mo was not going to push cupcake out to the g1's. I had read a bit about the process to gain root, but I was nervous to attempt something that could ruin your phone. So after days and days of reading on various websites I rooted my phone. The thrill was unimaginable. I was hooked. I flashed a few roms until I found out about this guy called Cyanogen. His 1.6 rom was perfect and I thought I was going to be ok. Then others started porting 2.1 to the g1. I HAD to have 2.1. So I flashed the so called "death" spl. I then went through several different 2.1 roms, finally settling on Cyanogen's 5.0.7. All was well in my world. Then came my upgrade. I got an HD2. WinMo was different. I, at first, felt I was cheating on Android. Gradually I got to somewhat understand how WinMo worked and was very satisfied with it. I wandered into Chef's Corner one day and it was over. Not only could I flash roms at will, I could cook them now too. So I cooked a rom. I have not flashed it yet. I think I need help...

I'm staring at my router now and thinking about WWDRT or Tomato. Come to think of it my mainboard bios needs to be updated. Too bad I sold my g1, too bad my girl has a blackberry...

I need help...

I got it flashed, but it is temporary glory...I uninstalled Windows Mobile Device Center for win 7 in hopes it might help but it did not...instead i spent the last few hours trying to get my driver to install and the program...active sync turns on, on my device...but I can hear the connection turn on and off as I move...I would think it is a connection problem but it continues charging?

Ok, I like that alot...point me to it please!?
[Off-topic] dotnetguyaz:
Charging is just a small portion of the cable... What you can do is go to TMO tomorrow and ask them if they can swap out the cable. Not 100% sure what the resolution will be on that though.

Another thing to try is if you have access to a WinXP machine, try it there.
