HD has been around for many months now and the forum seems to be full of duplicate messages and requests.
How about we delete it all and start again?

Not really a practical way of doing this as the whole process would just repeat itself.
A few ways of doing this:
1. Leave it as it is
2. Have more categories so questions on specific topics are in specific folders i.e. all game threads in one folder, all threads on battery in other and so on.....but this would create dozens of folders, so again not practical.
3. Have a new setup so noobs aren't actually able to post questions unless they have already searched the forum.....but again, this also isn't practical
4. Have a section for noobs where all basic questions are asked and then another section for other members....but again, I'm not sure this would work either as a person may be posting their first thread but be an experienced user.
Personally, I would just leave it as it is, and possibly just delete a few threads which are useless to clear the waste
Baby and bathwater spring unbidden to mind!
sorry to say.....
when a new phone comes out.....this happens to all threads
when the diamond came out...we was in the same boat..
when the diamond2 come out....it will all happen again

Totally agree, thats why after all my suggestions I said it wouldn't work so just leave it as it is!!
while i agreee thre are lot of multiple threads i still beleive leaving them up is the besy way to help as user SHould search theyll get more options
ive just got this toy. but ive owned a godd few winmo phones before hand so im no noob but we alll have issues
Something that would help i think is better use of the wiki. Each cook having a page, each rom having its own page. each app having its own page. the discussion belongs in forum but ROMs should have their own page then theres 1 location for update info, details ect.

Mabe start the cleaning process by banning all the "nOOb" bashers. That would cut down on a lot of the redundency around here.
If you cant beat them.... join them....

Or integrate an automatic search screen (maybe a popup to act as a temporary block) for:
a) anyone starting a new thread with
b) less than 40 or 50 posts history.
Then continue VIGILANTLY marking and reporting useless/repetitive threads.

Quite like this idea of a pop up for noobs asking them to check if question has already been asked and telling them how to use the site including search option!

All we need is a few MOD's to have a look at this thread and hopefully some ideas will get implemented.......obviously not all
I will vote for changing the forum first page. Giving that the number of devices is increasing, it is getting harder to find your phone through all of them. Maybe it is possible to categories it like saying depending on the model year/release date or specificationsod the device. That would be much more interesting than scrolling the whole page waiting to find a specific one.

ya.. ya... more option is good... may be almost the same problem but different solution...
Summarize
Major issue is looooong threads - which just go on and on. In the case of an answer to a particular problem - as soon as someone has a definitive answer the thread needs to be marked as Solved and the answer put in a reserved slot on the first page. It can me a nightmare going through a dozen solutions to fix a problem - and with people quoting bit's all the time there's probably 50% of the info duplicated.
Still
Best forum going

Good idea!
All threads should be done this way, i.e. once a solution to a query or bug is solved it should be posted at start of thread!!

But the thing is Fallen, I've been trolling these forums for years, ever since I got my universal roughly 3/4 years ago. The majority of posts I have made really has been to help other people.
I am not a noob but have not made many posts, I am a competent programmer and can solve problems without having to post... Usually.
It would be really annoying if the few times I did need to post for help, or to share information, I would have to answer to a stupid popup asking me whether I have searched or not!
However, I do agree there is a severe lack in understanding the search facility on these forums, I think if a NOOB filter were to be placed it should go on join date.
P.S My join date was before Aug 07 I just forgot my email and password
My Nexus One will be here tomorrow, and I am wondering what the Pro's and Con's of rooting are.
I've rooted before. I had a G1, but I bricked it, accidentally. Won't stop me from rooting the Nexus, but just give me some reasons why.
I obviously know about cooked roms, etc. I've read about the Desire rom with Sense UI, is it worth it?
Just want your input.
The "search" function of the forums is a great feature. I've seen several threads about this very subject already.
Its definitely worth it! I enjoyed the phone stock, but when i rooted and went with cyanogen 5053. I couldnt happier. I thought the phone was fast already, but with the ROM, its a step above!
And plus some apps from the market are only for rooted phones. SetCPU (underclocking app) is one of them, and has helped me out with battery life. moderate use, i got about 18 hours yesterday with still 35% left on the battery.

This is exactly why I don't post alot.
@stuff: I rooted my n1 and flashed cyanogen 5053 and gotta say it's alot faster! If your the kind of guy that gets alot of apps and games like me there is another feature of rooted phones called apps2sd. Apps2sd allows you to set a partition size of your choosing on your sd card for use of storing installed apps and games. That way you are not limited to the internal phone memory. Also as h2opoloplyr_11 stated there are some apps that require your phone to be rooted. Thats all I can think of right now as I am new to android and the n1 but I'm sure there are more reasons and more reasons to come as devs get creative.

It has nothing to do with getting our post counts up and everything to do with having a clean, uncluttered and efficient forum. No one likes to see the same questions asked every few days. The point of a forum is for it to serve as a repository of information to help and educate future enthusiasts. This guy isn't special and somehow entitled to create another redundant thread instead of using the search function like the rest of us do.. Not to mention he said in his original post that he rooted his G1.

Why the hell isn't there an official stickied topic listing the pros and cons of rooting your device. The first thing people would see before they go asking repeated questions would be that thread.
Good question...the info was stickies in the G1 forum..probably still is.

Which is why the op's question should have either been answered or his topic reported. What could have been very simple has turned to a two page topic with only a few post that actually answer the question and it's not because of the op. It's because of all the other post within the topic that are completely of topic including this one.

I'll add to it then...
Every time someone asks THIS question. It's about 10 pages of people giving different great benefits. What difference is 2 pages telling the guy to Lrn2Surch
If someone is too lazy to SEARCH for benefits. Who would ever expect them to accomplish rooting, and the various benefits without further questions that have been seen 100's of times.
It seems like I've seen this topic before.
When I went to run youtube I got an error about not enough memory. I have only 6mb of storage memory left. I uninstalled some programs and got 10mb of storage memory. Is there a way of freeing up storage memory?
I have an SD card installed and I thought I had installed all programs to that, is there any thing I can do to get more memory other than flash the rom?

@Dhester,
you may want to check this video on some tips you might find very useful as far as internal storage memory is concerned:

also, clear out cache every time you use opera...

Kind of proves my point , I am sure he just did a google search ...
None of us here mind helping people with actual problems, but clearing internal storage, or installing programs to storage card instead of the device , is basic usage.
If you just did not understand how to do it, maybe you should have said, "I have searched and searched, and I just don't get it can't figure it out..." I bet you would have gotten a nicer response.
But this "Teach me how to use my phone because I can't type google.com into my browser.", attitude just gets old ...
And I refer you to this post .... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=631069
Okay I could have typed google and come up with 60000000 different sites with useless information. I choose to come here as it is fellow users of the HD2, but I appear to be wrong it is just full of self importent arseholes who can't be bothered to help someone, but they have got the time to repeat the "why can't you type google".
So if I get band from here because I asked a question and got a load of **** from some know all arsehole, and told them so I won't care.
well most people would of at least attempted a search in hd2 section before asking.
you may have gotten a more civil reply .
most situations have already been covered a couple of times
and tbh you're less likely to be given info if you spout your illiterate mouth off at members

Now I don't see anyone in this thread but the OP using fowl language , the forum guides state to search before posting, that is what we suggested, maybe in a harsh way but in no way degrading or insulting ...
This is a tech type forum not a "Spoon Feeding" forum, most people here expect persons posting to have basic knowledge, and understanding before posting and asking questions ...
I think a mod should read this and then decide if it should be locked or remain open for further education ....

you should install cleanram as it helps free some ram...also get cleartemp as it'll show you what's eating your space up like googlemap and youtube caches so you can delete them easily...and finally don't forget to soft reset
one more very important thing which saves a LOT of space if you're on stock rom or your cooked rom doesnt have it(highly unlikely) is moving the album cache...read the thread here and look out for 4tune's cab
you should also read tboy200's thread and look at tips 65 and 67

Read the damn manual OP and use the search function. If you don't like to sift through the results from the search function, I'd gladly come and crap in your threads each and every time to remind you to use the search function whilst still not intentionally providing you with any help whatsoever just because you're an e-douche.

Well i've read through and i think i'm comming down with the same strain of lazy-itis the op has because right about the same time i figured out that he wasn't bothered enough to look through the first 20 google results and also couldn't be arsed to pay enough attention to his english teacher to learn how to speak to people properly; i lost the will to type anything that could possibly help. It's so bad i can't even be bothered to berate him for being generally very rude to the people with the skill and (normally) the willing to help him.
I think i might just go back to flashing my old diamond with the latest energy diamond rom, installing hspl and a new radio rom. Then i'll probably finish setting up my Leo with the new energy leo rom and finish testing a memory usage theory i have.
Ah well sucks to be him. Maybe he should learn to KEEP HIS ****ING MOUTH SHUT AND BE RESPECTFUL!!!!
Oh, sorry, did i just swear. My mistake. Next time i'll remember to read the rules of the forum first so i don't get reported to the mods and subsequently banned.

Lol.. Der must be an option to "LIKE" a Post.. Same as we have on facebook..
Best way to NEVER lose your contacts is to sync them with google. They'll be re-synced on any new build.
I do this cause using Titanium backup to shift contacts/messages from a clean Froyo build to a Sense build always corrupts the build and force closes everything on boot.

I took on the project to install wp7 and dual boot android. Installing magldr and wp7 went without any problems but I made the mistake of switching out the sd cards. Now it goes to the sd card not working screen and gives me the option to turn off. I performed a hard reset holding the up and down along with power. The reset took less than a second before it said it was complete and still boots to the sd card not working screen. I would like to do a hard reset through magldr but am not sure how because it just boots to the 123456 go go go screen and boots into wp7. Any insight would be great. I have been searching but have not been able to come up with anything. Thanks
Aaah! What a great new ROM from Stinkybudz called PROBLEMS DOING A FACTORY RESET! Thanks you man, flashing it now!
oops... what is that? Its not a rom? Why is it in a rom section then? Because of some noob is spamming this forum with his stupid questions?
Well you know, you maybe read an article about developers leaving this forum because of noobz. If you want to see such noob dear Stinkybudz, look in the mirror. Because you are a NOOB.

You will see the tri color screen (bootloader) and from there plug in USB and flash 6.5 rom or use SD card method (format sd to FAT32 and rename to leoimg.nbh).

Aaah! What a great new ROM from Stinkybudz called PROBLEMS DOING A FACTORY RESET! Thanks you man, flashing it now!
oops... what is that? Its not a rom? Why is it in a rom section then? Because of some noob is spamming this forum with his stupid questions?
Well you know, you maybe read an article about developers leaving this forum because of noobz. If you want to see such noob dear Stinkybudz, look in the mirror. Because you are a NOOB.

I agree that this should be in the Q&A section and not in development, what if he just overlooked it? people make mistakes
There are no stupid questions, but answers, and this is sure one of them, posts like yours doesn't help either.
Come on, lets be civil

hey thanks for the good info douch bag. why dont you go jump off a bridge. Sometimes people make mistakes and post in the wrong forum. People like you are useless to the community and worse than a noob trying to get everything figured out.
Don't know if it can help but just after first splash screen you can do the same as for wm6.5 ie VOL- for flash and VOL-/VOL+ at the same time to have a menu checksum/factory reset but this time it will be for WP7 using spl provided by magldr.
happened to me before, I had an sd card I was playing with. Partitioning it for android and so. But then I headed off for my work, took my phone and totally forgot my sd card was still in the pc, lol.
So i thought, just buy a replacement sd card real quick, but wp7 said that the sd card was not compatible. It was a sandisk, so I bought another one, wich also gave the same message. So I couldn't use my phone that day.
In the end, when I came home, i reinserted the sd card i left in my pc and voila, it worked and all the data, games, music and other stuff were still there.
So, just insert your old sd card in it and then boot into wp7 again and do a reset.
i got it figured out. I just needed to get to the magldr boot options by holding down the power button until it showed up. I just reflashed and it is all good now. Thanks for the help

well said.. noobs do learn.. but these guys dont.
Your problem was, that you didnt know how to get into MAGLR menu. That is something, which could be easily found. And because you are lazy, you broke several forum rules by starting this thread.
1. Posted in wrong section
2. Started new thread about something that could be found elsewhere (yes it could)
3. You swear...
This is supposed to be development forum for DEVELOPERS. I remember, when years ago it was. People was discussing development. Now it turned out to be chaos with thousands of totally pointles posts, repeated questions from lazy people who are not able to search and read and totally pointless threads like this one.
Developers are leaving, noobs are multiplying. Owners of this forum are aware of this and trying to fight this problem, but it seems, that they are loosing the battle.
Its very hard to find anything within all the thanks, pointless debates and questions from people who think that this is technical support. You just made it worse a little. Just because you were unable to find out fow to get into MAGLR menu, which is really totally basic task. How would you describe yourself if not a noob?
Call me a douchebag if you want, it will not make you any better.

jeez, what is wrong with some people. are you trying to scare new members away from xda? Yes, it should not be posted here, in fact, maybe not be posted at all, but you seem to have some loose wires in your head. you don't need to freak out. jeez, i can now see why some wars have been started.
you don't like it, then just don't respond to this thread anymore. go whine at a moderator and make him force close this thread if that is what you really want.
I have never believed developers ran away, just because of the noobs, but more because of some rivalty. Besides, fresh new developers are here, like yukixda.
You should apply for a moderator function and ban all of the people you dislike. period.

dude, go get laid or something. it was an honest mistake posting in here. i admitted it was wrong of me to post it here and have already solved my issue. you should stress about the things that really matter. like your priorities.
Ok, I am going to start a war and then get laid and jump off the bridge as you recommend. Meanwhile you may continue to spam this forum and be rude.
