Re: Forum Suggestion /"State of the Site"

i tried posting in where i felt was the appropreate thread linked to in the "state of the site" but it has already been closed

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=10673299

anyway i completely agree with many of the administrative decisions discussed there. i just have some suggestions to help those work, coming from my experience as a new member my first few days. (few weeks ago)

first of all how did i come here? google searches for questions i had about my captivate. after finding info on XDA few times through google, i realized this is a place i may want to check out more, but it took some looking around just to understand the BASIC POINT of what XDA was all about. Something that would really help people understand "THIS IS THE PLACE!" could use a short, straight to the point "sub-title" at the top of your webpage beside your xdadevelopers logo. something that reads like:

"the home for smartphone development, troubleshooting and ideas.."

the second small issue i want to bring up is new users not being able to post in development forums. WAIT!! I AGREE WITH THIS. BUT, when i was new here i was seeing not able to post in a dev forum talking about something i needed info on, and i was seeing other minor members in other threads getting "chewed out" for posting in a "developers" forum.

HERE WAS MY CONFUSION: www.xda-DEVELOPERS.com it appears to a noob straight off the google express that the whole site is developers...

i started looking for www.xda.com forums.xda.com ect....

it took a bit of searching around the site before i realized the "Developers" section that i couldnt post in was the SUB-forum of the Captivate sub-forum.

it was just a bit confusing until i saw the layout of the site for all the different phones and the sub catagories each had.

i hope these suggestions can bring forth some ideas that can help the integration of new members.

[About XDA developers] Pooley72:
Hi there,

I'm a noob and this is my first post so please don't rip in to me for this or for the fact that I am resurrecting an old post :eek:

I thought that it would be better to quote a post that reflected my feelings and possibly (hopefully) answer my questions.

I have an HTC Inspire that I imported into Australia from gsmnation.com as I liked the feature set of the phone and it was compatible with my carrier over here unlike the Desire HD that is available locally but not compatible with my carrier.

I have lurked around these forums as an unregistered user since having my phone and used the great advice shown to root it and put Android Revolution 4G 4.0 by mike1986 on it.

Have been very happy with it but now I want more.

In particular I would like to put Gingerbread onto it with Sense 3.5.

I had been following a thread about RCMix3d Runny v4.0.

I took the plunge and registered at XDA but now I can't even view the thread without getting the vBulletin message saying that members without a post count of 10 or less cannot post in developers threads.

Fair enough I say but surely we can at least view the threads.

I can view various other threads but i cant even find the one mentioned above.

Can someone tell me if the thread has been deleted (all 1264 pages according to Google cache search - I was up to page 127!).

Have tried searching using XDA's custom Google search feature but can't find the thread anywhere.

Any advice about whether the thread still exists or if I am doing something wrong that is not even letting me view the thread.

That thread was removed at the op's request which is why you aren't able to view it.

[About XDA developers] Pooley72:
Ah Ok.

Thanks for the quick response...Very impressive.

Is there an alternative for this ROM or another sticky for that one around the place or has it been obliterated from XDA?

I have downloaded the ROM to my PC but if there is no longer any support for it on these boards then my quest for a nice GB ROM will have to continue.

I wonder how receptive capychimp is to noobs? I am in awe of the guy :)
[About XDA developers] olsolano:
Hi,

Noob here! :)

I read your "[New Members][Guide/Tour] Get the most out of XDA!!" and I thought it was great.

Being a noob, I couldnt press the thank you button, so I just thought I'd say thank you for taking the time and the effort to write the guide.

Thanks again!

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eunkipark92:
Just like you flash the Rom. Flash it thru recovery. If you don't know what your doing don't... ur gonna waste hours trying to fix it

Wait for official source code, then devs can start making stable fast kernels

To be exact, place the kernel you want in the internal sd card> boot into recovery> choose zip> find and flash that zip (in this case a kernel) it will over write the old kernel > reboot you re done

U didn't really need to tell him step by step lol... he flashed the Rom before I think he will know how to flash the kernel, since now that he knows kernels are flashed just like the Rom does

Hey guys,

So i tried to use my camera and for some reason when ever I take a picture it ends up being a corrupt file. This only happens for my back camera while my front camera (the one with the screen facing at me) works. Can I get some help on how to fix this problem. I looked all over and most of the questions that I found was camera failed. I haven't gotten that yet so far. And I'm pretty sure that I don't have that "fring" thing installed too.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] KodieG:
I know that there are tons of threads about this but none of them have helped. My market just will not work. It shows it downloading, then displays the message "Download failed" for a split second and disappears.

I have an HTC Desire (BravoC/CDMA) with the latest version of CyanogenMod 7 Nightly and ClockworkMod 2.5.0.9 for recovery. I also have Firerat's Custom MTD Partition. Details and links to all these can be found in my signature.

I feel like I've tried everything. Uninstall updates, Installed latest GApps, Installed old versions of GApps, Installed leaked versions of Gapps, cleared cache, formatted device.

This has been happening since the new market website was released. It really sucks, I can't update any apps or download any new apps.

If anyone can offer any help or suggestions I would greatly appreciate it.

Thank you

Try removing SD card then try again. I had the same problem with my galaxy s I removed SD card backup on PC then I formatted it put it back in and market works perfect, don't ask me why but this worked for me
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] AndroidKills:
a little weird thing i noticed is,if i have checked the box that allows applications to be download to the external(Apps2sd) whatever i try to download, will be resulted with Unsuccessful. When i unchecked it, my downloads were successful.

See if you have it checked.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] lisa2blonde:
I discovered that it was a problem with the CSC file. I had exactly the same issue with a 'mixed up' firmware. Download would not work at all from the market. Anyhow, I flashed the phone (galaxy s) with a different CSC file and the market started downloading.

the only thing I had changed was that file.

So u may want to consider that:) Hope this helps.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] nico1375:
I think there is also a possibility of going to applications --> market, and then stop & clear data.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] yike:
same situation here...

re-flash the rom and market won't download anything.

But it's strange that I can install apps from web market.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] KodieG:
Thanks for all the suggestions guys, after some time I have discovered what was causing the market issue. It was the Firerat Custom MTD Partition Mod the whole time. Apparently the new version of the market deals with downloads a little differently now and doesn't get along with Firerat's mod.

So now the waiting game begins for a new update from Firerat. ;)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] anilct:
Hi,

NOt a solution, but I found a workaround for this issue on my phone.

I am using Hyperdroid GBX V8 on my HTC HD2 now. From last 2 days I was struggling with this problem. I tried all solutions I found with google. Clearning everything and Reflashing, clearing the market and caches for other apps, reflashing, unmount/mount SDCARD and so on, smaller bigger recovery partition, without EXT3/4 partition.

Still the problem exist on the phone. But I found a workaround. Logon to market.android.com using your google id and password, select the app you want to install and click install. if your phone is up and live, it will be installed in a few seconds.

In other words, pull doesnt work, but push works :).

Thanks.

I'm too lazy to write up much here. but I pulled images from a buncha different sources (retrokid's dj05 theme, real aosp, various other aosp themes from different phones). reboot options/accbatt pulled from sbrissen, other edits I did myself.

etc...

v6: updated android.policy.jar to allow long press voice search, thanks to bendbowden, sbrissen

v7: updated with 5lockscreens, thanks sbrissen!

v8: added aosp accurate battery version, modded toggles.

v9: more aosp goodness (checkboxes,highlights,etc...), modded toggles some more.

v10: Clean quickpanel by benbowden, more aosp touchups, changed carrier text, made my own aosp accurate battery. I like big easy to read numbers.

i flashed this over black aosp and the menus were all messed up, the text was un readable.. looks really good tho. im getting ready to flash the stock theme then flash this again and see if that works.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] Powell730:
still no luck... my menu text is black as well as the menu background. any other ideas? I really love the theme other than this.. i like how the menu still has the stock look, and the no acc. batt!
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] jthompson0019:
Sounds like you need to do some wipes.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] Powell730:
Hmm.. I don't think so, I just flashed a fresh copy of 2.1 like 2 days ago..

Edit: it was working fine until I flashed this theme. I'm sure if I went back to black aosp it would look fine

Superclean 2.1... aka Froyo... Thanks devs!!
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] andmer:
hmm not sure. sounds like your not getting the services.jar somehow on flash.

try and re download it again and flash maybe. not sure. it works for me.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] Powell730:
Ok I'll try it now

Superclean 2.1... aka Froyo... Thanks devs!!
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] Powell730:

I've never themed anything so I could be way off here but I noticed you don't have a settings.apk in the zip.. I know that file always edits my settings menu, maybe drop the stock one in there? I don't have one or I'd try it myself

Edit: just dropped the settings from black aosp in there and I have the same problem.. This sucks!

Superclean 2.1... aka Froyo... Thanks devs!!
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] Powell730:
For what it's worth i just wanted to make sure it wasn't my phone so I wiped everything and started fresh and then flashed the theme again and I still have the same problem.

Sometimes when I go into the gallery application to view my pictures not all the pictures are displayed. Using a file-browsing app I am able to navigate to the folder where the pictures have been saved and I can verify that they do exist. But why do they not show up in the gallery application.

To fix this issue I usually have to reboot my phone and the missing pictures are loaded in the gallery application. Is there any other fix to this issue ?

Another issue is that sometimes in the gallery application there are some thumbnails with an error (exclamation mark displayed). There is no picture associated with these thumbnails. Any solutions ?

I'm using a Kingston 16GB class 4 card bought from Amazon, in my honest opinion I think that class 10 is much of a muchness and the price difference can be vast.

Hi - I wanted to know if anyone has found the best way to configure the keys.

I am using Zeam right now, but if you do this:

1. Login to facebook

2. View pictures

3. your viewing and sliding through them, there is no way to exit out, unless you hit the home button where you are forced back to the main home screen.

Is there a way to get the back hand soft key there or something?

Right now, I am just using hovering arrow from Soft Keys as a workaround.

Thanks!
