People saying this site is going down the crapper is just another over reaction like what happened on Monday. I have watched this exact flow of events happen over and over with new devices on numerous sites. Once everyone gets what they want the flaming slows down. But this whole thing of posting a disrespectful response to someone else's post(comment/question) is what makes up most of the clutter. Like it was said earlier by a moderator and some other senior members just report what you feel is wrong. Why people think that by being disrespectful will solve anything is beyond me. XDA as a whole is fine but change usually seems like a bad thing while its happening because one it never goes smoothly and two its not what you know and love. I have faith that the Incredible section just like many others will evolve into an informative section over time. We need to get over this growing pain that comes with new people being introduced and having them learn the way that XDA expects members to act and not react.

My .02

I think that the mods are doing a substantially better job than I have seen on most sites. With the root drama this past weekend I was happy to see some intervention. On most sites it would have devolved to the point of people that have been around for awhile going off and starting their own, more exclusive, forums. We just need to be better about policing our own comments. There is always going to be a douche-bag that is going to rile you up sufficiently to retaliate. That stuff just needs to stop, as hard as that may be some times. That all starts with the individual. Exercise some restraint and don't give in the feeble-mindedness.
[General Topics] Tapple:
We can do something. If you see a post that clearly violates the forum rules, or is just inappropriate, click the red hazard icon that is next to the post#. Doing this instead of flaming the poster prevents long pointless threads. Granted the mod's probably won't enjoy the flood of reported posts to go through, but at least something is being done.
[General Topics] InGeNeTiCs:
I agree. I was reading a rom thread in the mytouch 4g forums yesterday and there were almost 3 full pages of people making comments about wiping your ass. It's really not that funny. I come here for knowledge, and to get stuff done. And weeding through pages of ass-wipe jokes makes it difficult to get the information I seek.

I've been a big xda fan since the days of my t-mobile SDA, then k-jam, tytn, tytn2, touch pro 2, then finally the g1, nexus one, samsung epic, g2, and mytouch 4g. I've seen a broad range of devices, and things didn't REALLY start going downhill until the g1 came out. I don't know what it is about android, but it brought in a whole torrent of users with 'yo i need dis mod for mah fone' and 'fix

x

problem or I'm going to switch to a different rom' posts.

First and foremost, at what point do people decide they don't need to sound like articulate human beings? Being a global site, there are a lot of language barriers here. However, that doesn't excuse everyone else from abbreviating every other word because they think 'wut' is easier than 'what'. It's lazy, and ignorant. Better YOURSELF, then work on your phone.

Second, the attitudes on this forum are ****. It's awful, and embarrassing. Every other post about a rom or a kernel has some idiot stating that his/her phone sucks because it hasn't been rooted/unlocked in a day, or the new cyanogen mod isn't available yet so they're going to buy a different device. How is it that the users are giving devs the ultimatum? "Fix/mod my device of choice on the timeframe I have allotted or I'll use another rom"...How can people be so pompous? The devs of xda aren't being paid to do this. They have personal lives, they have jobs, they have families, and they have problems. Contributors to the xda community should be praised and thanked. It's unconscionable to me that people would even think to disrespect the devs in such a manner. Without them, you'd be stuck with carrier branded bloatware on your phone. There wouldn't be any custom bootloaders or kernels. No overclocked cpu's. No extra features and mods. No themes. Keep treating the dev like crap and they'll leave. They don't do this FOR you people. They do it for themselves, and they share. They are not required to share.

Smarten up people! Don't be so damn rude and demanding!
[General Topics] jagpoag:
Dude, I've not been a member here for long at all but I agree with EVERYTHING you said. I'm 32 years old and grew up in front of computers. I've watched the internet turn into nothing but a place for people to whine and beg for anything and everything these days. There is no respect, people do not READ anything and then wonder why they can't get things to work. Then of course you have the stupid questions like, "why doesn't the camera work?", when CAMERA DOES NOT WORK is posted on the first page of the thread in bold letters. I can tell already that I'll be banned from here at least twice before it's all over with. While others can sit and show patience with these idiots, I just can't do it. This seems like a great community but I feel it would be better if it were an invitation only like most of the communities I belong to on the net.

I'd like to ad one more thing if I may:

Just because you read it on wikipedia does not mean you are an expert on anything! Any moron with a keyboard and internet connection can type something on that website. Just because you read it in a blog doesn't mean it true! Any idiot can start a blog. Just because you own something, you are not an expert on it! People need to learn that they can actually learn something if they would shut up and READ AND LISTEN to people that actually DO know what is going on. I've been here for a short time and have had no problem flashing my phone (hd2) with WM and Android NUMEROUS times. WHY? Because all of the information I need is RIGHT HERE on XDA. All I had to do is READ to understand how things were done.

I'm going to shut up now because I'm sure someone will get pissed. What happened to XDA you ask? The answer is VERY simple really. It's the same problem that all of the communities have these days and can be answered here:

Hardware prices dropped, Rent A Center sells PCs now and internet service is cheaper. SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, any idiot high school drop out, welfare using moron can get online and register. Same with the gaming community, scene (not the stupid a$$ "scene" the kids talk about) and everything else.
[General Topics] addicted2088:
Very well said. I am not a developer, I can't write a single line of code. However, when it comes to rooting or hacking a device by reading instructions in a topic, I can very well do it by just reading the instructions properly. Most people are in a hurry and fast forward through everything and then complain about problems that they have.

It's always gonna be a problem. People who don't respect others' work and are ill-mannered are always gonna turn up at communities like XDA, whining and abusing others.

I turn up at XDA almost every day, and am constantly amazed at what people are able to do, and the thought of flaming these great developers and modders can never ever cross my mind...
[General Topics] KCRic:
I'm right with Addicted2088. I'm far from anything that could remotely be considered a dev but still, with what I do know I try to help and share it with others. As far as the devs go, I just let them work. If I have a suggestion or bug I let them know but don't demand anything - ever. I understand they don't know or see everything so when some of us find new scripts, code, and so on it's appreciated that we share it. They're proud of their work so reporting bugs is important given that it follows the steps and guidlines they request we use to report them.

To demand a single thing from anyone on here is crazy and childish. I don't think the threat of switching ROM's or phones is something any of us give a damn about, do it - that way we don't have to deal with the silver spoon elitest attitude anymore.

As I continue to learn from everyone here, regardless of their level of expertise, I'm thankful that a community like this exists. The bad apples aside, I don't know what I would do without it (aside from having a girlfriend that isn't mad all the time).

I know that i can run Android from my Windows Phone. But is it possible tu run Windows Mobile on Android phone? For example to run WM 6.5 on Desire?

If not so why?

[Desire General] M4cr0s:
It appears the "extra" HTC widgets, available for download through the add-widget interface in Sense (Notes, Today in history etc) do not work on ROMs (Pays, Modaco..) that are a2sd and have dalvik cache on the SD too (seem to work with a stock ROM where a2sd have been pushed later).

A small thing it might be, I'm still looking for a solution. A history buff, "Today in history" is completely and totally addictive ;) I NEED MY FIX! :p

What I've tried so far without success is to install the widget through the add-widget interface, manually acquiring the apk and installing it that way, modifying a ROM and dropping the apk in system/app (hoping it being installed in the phone memory that way would somehow help). My guess is that this does not work because these widgets needs the dalvik cache to be internally.

So, any idea for a workaround except flashing a stock ROM? Input would be much welcome.

[Desire General] M4cr0s:
Okay, I am going to be extremely rude and bump my own thread (mods spank me if I'm bad). Still looking for a solution to this, enlightment, a stfu n00b, whatever ;) C'mon, with all the great people on this forum at someone must be able to shed some light, be it bright and shiny or dark and gloomy?

[Desire General] ephumuris:
Maybe if we include the .apk's from first install of the rom it might work. I'd be willing to test. Provide me with the .apk's lol.

Was there any outcome to this, im having the same problem on Villians ROM.

Sorry if I have posted this in the incorrect area....

I have just installed Android 2.1 on my Hero and I am having a few problems with Facebook syncing.

Every single one of my Facebook contacts appears in People. So I select "View" and uncheck the Facebook tick box. Only my Gmail contacts now appear - great problem solved.

However when I go into "Messages" and select "People" all of my Facebook contacts still appear. Does anyone know how to get rid of these to only show Gmail contacts in Messages?

Thanks in advance.

Really sorry. Im using Villain 6.2 but I think this is a general 2.1 issue rather than a specific ROM.

Microsoft officially unveiled WinCE7 which is widely believed to be the core of Windows Phone 7. Not only that, but they made a CTP download available. To grab it go to https://connect.microsoft.com/directory/non-feedback, find the "Windows Embedded Compact" product and click apply (it will automatically accept you). This is just a CTP and the product is expected to RTM Q4 of this year.

Hopefully this will help out the WP7 porting/hacking process.

[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] Da_G:
One thing I noticed after too much poking through this with a fine tooth comb,

The reason the Emulator files were marked ARMv4I Thumb in the PE headers even though they contain x86 code, is that ARMv4I Thumb is a fallback for "unknown" CPU type. I found it peculiar initially because there is a discreet "i386" value. I would guess MS has it marked somewhere as "emulated x86" rather than "i386"

Unless you are a good programmer, who can build a custom shell, and pick the right windows components to include in a package, there is absolutely ZERO use with this for the public.

It is a bare bones building block version of windows, which you could put on a tablet or smaller device, with a non x86 or x64 processor as well as those two kinds, which you can build your app, or shell ontop of.

Today i've seen this on Htc site: ROM Upgrade for HTC Tattoo (Orange)

Release Date: 2010-06-01 ,and i'm wondering if someone could just download it and put it on some server like rapid share or megaupload so i can see what version is in there .

Hope that has a 2.1 Android :eek:,if so we will have a good rom to customise and the drivers to do a clean rom with Eclair.

Please orange users ,download it and upload to some server.:o:cool:

Can't get recovery working

I put the non rooted htc version of this rom on. It obviously this killed root and recovery.

I have a gold card, I tried the 1 click root+recovery to get it back but this failed.

When trying to apply recovery it has a lot of errors like this:

mtd: erase failure at 0x00420000 (Input/Output error)

mtd: erase failure at 0x00420000 (Input/Output error)

mtd: skipping write block at 0x00420000

This is repeated alot and the script scrolls off the top before I get chance to read it.

At one point I saw unable to chmod.

Not sure if the rooting part worked but I doubt it.

Any ideas?
