Giznetic!!

Hey guys whats up!!! You guys at XDA have been so great to me and I think it is about time i paid you back! I have been developing a website for quite sometime now that will make it easier for users to get at some key applications and information. Basicly my website is distrubiting some popular applications and even some that are useful and arent that well known yet. I update the website frequently so be sure to check it out!!!! A mobile optimized version will be released within a week so you can have easy access from your phone... similiar to Apple's appstore. if you have any questions please post a comment and i will be more then happy to reply
They have all the latest accelerometer games available too!!!

@Dr J, I totally agree with you.
@htcfanboi, I don't like your website nor this kind of advertising...

huh????
why not????
and i believe DR. J is praising the website not insulting it like you....
honestly if you don't have anything nice to say don't say it at all i spent many hours on that website to help YOU guys out... not for personal amusement

Its not that we dont like it.
I think its the way your trying to advertise it as such.
"They finally opened their website today guys!!!!!!"
You mean yourself?
Seems like your spamming it here and there also. Maybe just chill out and include the updates into your sig etc.

Yeah, he's almost as annoying as Napbree

It's a useful website, chill out.

oops.... sorry about the title i meant I not they... hahhaha embarissing.... i dont get it.... i thought you guys would like it...... and what do you mean updates in my sig????

I'm not even going to visit your site because of your cheap tactics to try to get free advertizing for your site. Please. Don't try to fool us. When you were saying "They" it was not a mistake. everything you have written was an attempt to decieve us. I'm not fooled.

um.... why would i decieve you guys.... i've visited this forum for so long!!! and have made so much for you guys with my htc diamond tf3d themes... some people always think of you guys are so ignorent... i'm just trying to help!!!

Nothing against you personally. But I read through your other thread and the way you had written your posts - You were trying to make it seem that you had nothing to do with it and just stumbled on to it or something. I am sure it may be a very usefull site but I just don't like the way you presented it here (and why two different threads?)

sorry OK i made a mistake... now do you want to hold it on me for ever!!!!!! ok gosh!
give my site a chance i'm sure you'll like it... you dont have to but... i mean it is quite useful

I won't hold it against you forever. Maybe a day. I am glad to see that you are taking ownership. I will probably take a peek at your site. I have checked out your contributions to this site and you are right. You have contribued quite a bit. Your contributions are appreciated here and valued. Keep up the good work with your themes etc... Just remember not to take advantage of everyone here through trickery. If your site is that great, Take pride in it and take ownership. If there is trickery, thefts, Warez in your site than I would understand why you would not take ownership.
I have to admit - When I first saw this it was in your other thread on this. I didn't notice in your opening post *In this thread) that you actually say you worked on this site. I appologize; however, you did still appear very dishonest in the other thread and even in this one a little bit. You should go and edit your posts though so that things are clear with everyone. And don't clutter the forums with multiple threads.

thanks for understanding!!
i'm really excited about this website.... especcailly the mobile optimized version!!!! stay tuned!!
ps. yah i better edit the rest... heheh

And another giznetic-thread..
Spamming the board isn't appreciated!!

!!!!<<The Xda Search Culture>>!!!!

Hello fellows !!!!​
Here is + QUE PPC trying to give you some tools to enjoy this site even more!!!!​
Well… as you see, the forum XDA-Developers becomes even more and more bigger with every year that offers many many information! Making some posting on Off-Topic Forum I reed many people said_-_- “This is in CHAOS!!!!!” this web forum is a MAZE!!!!! And many other things that disappoint me!
But why? Because that kind of threads allows to be more chaotic the forum and so… is not in chaos just are many many… threads give and asking for info… everybody wants to be heard as usual and is natural! Obviously, and is the real truth! This becomes a little hard to find what we are looking for…
I am!!! Te ONE that begins the SIGN INFO THREAD! But nobody wants to follow the info there… (Well, many people already has his info wrote there and thanks for it…) many more people reeds my thread and thinks… OH ****!!!! Its truth…
We can get faster solutions if we all give the entire info of our devices on our signatures… but I can use that mini mini mini space to place my Thoughts! And what!!!!????? Is Fine!!! Many thoughts are good and full of knowledge phrases so… why I wouldn’t wrote my info and restore many time FIRST! Searching… then ASKING then… ANSWERING….
So the question is…. How many time can we spend on answer a question and give it on the right answer? Days???? Weeks?? For some people MINUTES OF REAL PAIN, can be released even more faster.
So we can do more to assist efficiently this kind of problems like a big City on construction becoming a Metropolis!
(I know I’m the one that blame, insult and speak too much, almost then obligates to search or READ… and I offer my apologize to everybody… Im sorry for that and for everything I said wrong… many senior ask me to help them with a guy that makes us mad! And I need sometimes Assist from others [Thanks Zabardast, Ather, Ashasaur and many many more]maybe im not the very right person to said this but I think we can reach a new SEARCH Culture before start a new thread).
So please this time use the search tab right at the upper level bar of this web site. (and so sorry my english is so bad!!! )
...To enable the advanced search tool for XDA developers...​
XDA-Developers advanced search plug-in for IE and Firefox
Thanks Noonski

The tutorial!
THE FIRST SEARCH TUTORIAL TO USE THE SEARCH TAB GOOGLE ENHANCED TOOL​
(Thanks Admins this is a great IDEA)​
First of all… We can have many many doubts but some words can be used by tags… like Downgrade… QVGA… HardSPL… Wizard… “the name of the application”… “.cab” etcetera.
So lets start searching for an application maybe a skin for Audio Manager????
Lets go to the tab!
I type: Audio Manager Skins Diamond QVGA
click on the search button then it goes to GOOGLE and shows answers in XDA and in many other pages other answers.
Obviousli number 1 not wastin time...
number 2... mmm maybe
and the circule number 3 maybe...
Lets try the one that say Kidnamed ALBERT user ok? NUMBER #3 BIGGER(note that arrows points to all answers to XDA developers)
Nice work and he got a zip and a cab! good work but....
I heard (read) somebody's called Poorlyduck that creates really good work... so repeat the steps and perform the search....
I type "Poorlyduck diamond skins" and this is what i got now... I already read before on the hacking and development but never see his thread and now i have a beautyfull skins!!!!
CONTINUES...--->>>>>

<<<<<------continuing
So this is what I have now...
We all thinks that simple explains are for idiots so dont feel like those idiots and please perform a search before starta a new thread maybe your question is already answered... and if you have a question ABOUT SEARCH!!!!! make it her we are all happy to help contributing even more.
Your friend + QUE PPC

Well,although,for some your attitude might be pinching,but I personally have always enjoyed your lightheaded humour and appreciated your way of helping the community.
YUP! no doubt,'SEARCH' is the best option,as the forum has grown enormous over the time and the 'SEARCH' option really sometimes works wonders,only if you enter or put the query correctly.It cud be very beneficial and helpful,I still,after so much extensive reading,utilize it fully,when I have to know something.
Its your Best friend,when you need one
Thats my vote for it,count it!
Read my sigy :-
"Anything you still can't cope with is,therefore,your own problem.

Hey you didn't mention the True Hardcore XDA method!
Install the Plugin in my Signature

You are RIGHT!!!!
Im so sorry Noonski I will update the first post... thanks can I use your sigy????? I remember that the first time you come here I saw your sigy and install that and men I dont kew how to use it remember? hahahaha what a n000000000000b!!!!!
How can I forgot the most important?????
Ciao and Thanks!
Edit......
Updated the first post.

That sums it up perfectly!

well if your going to post a link with a different url to what's displayed and then taunt the guy who has asked a perfectly civil question that just makes the lot of you (Lady garden cleansing product that is dispensed in bags)....

I need help about this problem too, this issue was discussed previosly but now there is no link about this. Can anyone help us?

this is a major bugbear to me too and although if i search for it i'll get loads of threads to trawal though the chances are none of them will come back with THE definitive answer.
Can't we have a sticky thread with original questions and just the correct answer thats been confirmed posts in them

I've not been long a member of this site but I tell you, it's almost like being a member of the Royal British Legion! Or, walking into the Slaughtered Lamb! (movie reference, not WoW reference!)
It's rare that I come across a community that constantly belittles people for asking questions. Yes, I get frustrated seeing new threads that people have started in relation to another thread (why not ask that in the thread you've just quoted?), however, i've just searched "delay with ringing" on the Diamond thread to no real satisfaction. It led me to a thread that quoted another thread that never answered the question.
I agree that we shouldn't keep answering OP's that have been answered weeks, maybe months before, but linking the search page takes the piss! Especially knowing when it takes one person who has had a similar problem, or has read the page with the solution on it to reply with either the answer or the link to the post (not the thread) with the answer on it.
I'd probably feel more welcome on an Apple forum.....

Since we are putting cool pics on a lame thread let me do this:
Search you must.

I agree with these sentiments entirely. IMHO you would be hard pressed to find a less welcoming set of forums for a newcomer anywhere else on the internet than these ones. Sometimes it is like a little boy's club for nerds - sniggering at the new boy who does not know as much as them, and has dared to ask a question that they think is "obvious".
Linking to the search engine rather than the answer is a funny little trick to them, at the new boy's expense. It gives them a good giggle and makes them feel superior. And as often as not when you try the search they say you should you come up with nothing.
Oops not made myself popular now with the in-crowd - will be eating my school dinners by myself from now on.

Adventures of Andy the Android

Hi all,
Here is a small project that I posted in Android General. Just wanted to share with you guys. I think it is a great idea and it'll be a lot of fun! Take a look!
= = =
= = =
Hi all.
Mods, please move this thread to a more appropriate place if needed.
My name is Kevin, or aka DarkOnion. Many of you guys in the general Android community probably won't know me, but for those in the Droid X and Droid 2 community related the name DarkOnion to the scripts used to root the Droid 2 on Froyo and then the Droid X when 2.2 was made available. Anyways, that is not why I am here today. I just wanted to share an experiment that I am planning to start in the very near future.
It is kind of a social experiment of sorts. What I would like to do is send an Andy the Android plushy around and have people take pics of him doing cool things. Really anything you think would be cool. Trying to get the ball rolling. I got a website going, and I'll be setting up a blog in the near future to keep track of Andy's movements.
Please check out my blog and webpage for more info about how I want to do this. It'll be a lot of fun.

Input? Feedback? No one has any thoughts on this?

A way to request Andy would be a nice addition
Although this does kinda go against what your website says :/

I don't mind about the request part. I just don't like the idea of mailing him. Especially across country. He just sits in a box for 5-7 days... But you certainly can request for him!

Bumpers?? No one thinks this is a cool idea?

I like it but it seems like something that's going to be difficult to get started. Once it catches on it will be easy

Well, I already ordered the two plushies. As long as everyone likes the idea, then it is all good. I hope everyone makes the time to read the blog when I get it up.

Bumpers. I can't wait to get the plushies and get them out and about!

bookmarked! gonna keep an eye on this one.

Look, it is the guy that stole my code!! JKJK. What's up dude? Yeah, this project is going to be super fun. I should see those guys in my mailbox pretty soon.
Dude, I got a great story. I got a friend who was like... why are you writing a root program, there is one that already exists. And I was like "What?!" I didn't know about it. And then he gives me a link to your program. And I looked at it, and sent an image back to him with a screen shot of your program with my name circled and was like... hey dude... you know that DarkOnion and I are the same right?

Bumpers. No Andy's in the mail today.

Bumpers. No Andy again today. probably see him next week some time.

Cool idea, but what if a secret Apple guy steals Andy and does (insert unimaginable thing) to him?

Sure. You see the donate button next to my name. Do that!
Hehe. Sure you can, I think I'll be starting a waiting list. I do prefer hand-off's as opposed to mailing, but if someone gets stuck, we can have them mailed to a new person.
BTW. Andy's are here. Check them out.

Andy is in Davis, CA!!
See the post here:

I would like to get a list going on people interested in hosting an Andy. Please PM me or... email me at darkonion (a) kimete.com.
I would like to hit most of the states before the end of the year!

15/5: Coding layout | 85% [WEBSITE][Project] Xperia X10 community

Current progress:
- 15/5: Coding layout | 85%
- 14/5: Coding layout | 65%
- 12/5: Layout done in Photoshop
I am currently working on a website I plan to "release". It will be like a community where there will be a forum, custom ROMs section, download section etc and alot more to be added. There will be easy guides for root'ing, installing custom recovery etc. There will also be a good place for developers to help eachother, guides for porting and such stuff and alot more.
The design of the website is all made by me with photoshop, and its is coded (by me) with pure HTML, PHP, CSS and MySQL. Of course the design is still in "beta", and there will propably be alot of changes to it. For instance the main box and the right-menu will be changed, since its ugly imo. As I said alot of things will be changed! As CMS we will use Wordpress!
If you'd like to work as a news uploader, moderator at the forum etc, feel free to contact me.
Here is a screenshot of the website (The text on it is wrote by me in like 3 minutes ):

(Of cource the big "a1exander" text all over the screenshot is not on the website. )
Feel free to post comments on what could be better etc. Of cource its not very easy when the website isnt up yet, but still, you can look at the screen.
I dont know when the site will be up, but first I need a domain and host.
@ PlayGunsta : You were talking about that you could get a domain, if you're interested in cooperating, contact me.

sounds great, I would like to help you out with whatever as ill have a lot of free time this summer!

Again, it dedicated for the X10, not a million different devices. That means that the site is easier, more noob friendly. I know it can be hard for absolute noobs to know which thread to get to on how to root etc here on XDA. So this site will make it easier for them!
And the site will propably offer file hosting, so it'll be easy to have all x10 related on one site.
I'm think in the "custom ROMs" section, there will be a list of all available ROMs, with the most rated at the top, screenshots, Froyo/GB, specifications and all of that stuff. I certainly hope that developers will upload there ROMs themselfes!

Sounds like a good idea. I think that most beneficial would be an option to download any ROM and that kind of stuff from one place. XDA is good as people share they experience and communicate with each other, but it's still just a forum and despite the categorization these things are not grouped together, so having a dedicated website for X10 owners with all important stuff in it would be great. I'm looking forward to it

There is a couple of X10 dedicated sites out there. http://www.xperiax10.net/ is one of them.
Sent from my HAL 9000 from the future

Started using GO Launcher, Now using Arc Launcher

Honestly, this may have been a good idea worth doing about a year ago but right now anybody with an X10 that is even the slightest bit interested in rooting would have found their way here by now.

Effort is good however you can make it big if you shift your focus a bit.
Make it a front end for XDA.
what i would suggest is
Don't include forum... too much of overhead, also no need of creating parellel forum and dividing efforts.
Focus on custom ROM's.
Provide noob guides
Provide video's of ROM working.
Provide refer back links to XDA forum.....
Forum is basically for discussion, you can work on providing X10i specific work in concise format.
Create FAQ's and howto's and tips and tricks....

great site about great phone

Maybe do it for the arc as well?
