Radical suggestion - let's restart this forum?

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

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....

well...
If wiki was better organized... and have screenshots tutorials... and it should be a separate child forum for each phone

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

3G and H signal not as good since updating to VillainROM 3.4!

Hi everyone, just wondering if anyone else is having this problem.
But i can not seem to keep a H Signal for very long before it keeps going back to 3G.
and it has only started happening since installing VillainROM 3.4!.
When i am on the net it works fine, but when i am not active for about 10seconds is drops connection..
and this is a real problem when i am using Soccer Centre and i have to come out the program and back in for it to active H again..
Anyone else having this issue?
Thanks
Marc

Flash the latest radio (my sig) if you have not already got it.
If you do then reflash it

@Redpizzi
Please do NOT start new threads with Villain issues. PLEASE use the Villain thread.
Regarding to your issue, flash the latest radio again like Lenny said.

Thanks Lennyuk, will try that...i have the latest rom, but will re-install it..
Like i am sat here and the icon is 3G - but when i load up internet or market then it changes to H, then if i leave it for a few mins it goes back to 3g....i thought i might have been a battery saving thing in the rom or in the 2.1 FW....
Thanks again
And Phanes / ermacwins. i got that answer i needed, and now other people dont have to look though 700 pages of posts to find the same answer if they have that problem.
So sorry if you dont like it but it is how i have done thing in forums for 20 years...

@Redpizzi
... didn´t know that there where forums and INTERNET in 1990 ...
I don´t think I want to give you a hand in the future ...

awesome, continue like that and ppl who are actually interested in DEVELOPING will have to go through 700 threads of noob mistakes before they find something interesting. and no, there was no internet 20 years ago. if you had at least 20 days of forum experience you might have learned to post in the correct section...

Forums - are not just related to the internet -forums have been around for a long time people.
Phanes you never gave me a hand anyway...
I asked for some help and i got the help i asked for. Fine i should not have but VillainROM in the Thread - but when i posted in the Villain thread before about another problem it never got answered.
Job is a good one, just dont need people ermacwins/Phanes and the **** kendong2 trying to noob bash.
I dont give a **** how many posts you have done, i have been here since 2005 and help when i can no matter where the ****ing post is....
The main man Lennyuk gave me am answer and i will try that. if that does not work, then please just direct me to the right place, DONT start giving me **** for it.
END OF CURRENT THREAD - DELETE IF YOU WANT...
****ing hate people trying to noob bash.....

so if you are that know-it-all guy that has done it all forever and before everybody else, why is it asked too much that you stick to the rules like everybody else does?
and for the record: you are the only one flaming around here, i for example never called anyone a **** around here.

Yer i was flaming cause i asked for help and instead i got noob bashes trying it on..so dont piss me off again, and drop it.....no more slagging off the topic, will ask for help elsewhere
Now the problem has not been solved, so i am gonna try another rom to see if that has the same problem. i have even parked right next to my local Antenna.....
Thanks again Lennyuk

Well not familiar with forum rules but agree with OP that it's nightmare to browse through all the posts when there are 50+ (most of them repetitive and useless) replies on single day.
and just realised that i added one now.........

well this topic is not repetitive not useless and if it was against the forum rules then i cannot see why..
260 views mean people are interested untill they find out omeone needs help.

tell me about it. Asked something earlier and the same two were right on queue, no help at all, complaining like I just shat in their cereal. There really is no need for that.
Obviously I'm new to these forums, but been around many other forums for years and years, when I read their response I was literally like oh here we go, I guess this is just another one of those elitist forums, full of mod wannabes and keyboard warriors. Thats until helpful people like lenny weighs in and restores some faith.
Let us know how you get on with reflashing the radio Redpizzi, I have this same "problem", I thought thats just how it was since I got the hero not long ago, and the internet was like that before I flashed it with a custom rom as well. Its minor though but would be good to get the best out of the phone.

your thread was moved by a mod and you still don't get it? so you are also resistant to learning?
well, i guess we have to blame your parents, for not raising you right. other kids have learned not to talk in between while adults are talking.

you guys are so annoying, ive never seen such ganging on someone for simply a post, so cut the crap and either tell him wat he wants or not.
I've also had this issue and the latest radio hasnt resolved it either, I'm also having trouble with slow internet and reception cutting and coming back, ive tried all the 2.1 eris and legend roms and found that behero is the one with the least issues but still isnt all that perfect, i still get cut off sometimes and find no reception, so for the wifi aswell.

kendong2 fair enough if its was in the wrong forum, as im new here I thought something customrom related goes here in the development forum.
the mod moved the thread I thought nothing of it, you on the other hand must've thought it was a personal victory for you and thought it was the equivalent of a public spanking lol. Did you somehow think you were secretly pulling the strings by pointing it out?
Is your whole ambition to be a mod on here or something? just to point out where people are posting wrong and try to insult them lol. Just from a few posts I find it hard to believe that you have any friends. I wont be surprised if you're actually some 13 year old who gets bullied everyday at school and trying to get your power trip on the internet. Next thing you know you'll be pointing out spelling mistakes and missed capital letters. Get a life you loser cos this forum is obviously all you have. You really give this forum a bad name. you're on a phone forum but I doubt anyone ever rings your phone.

Just knock it off. It´s really enough now.
Why don´t you accept that WE how we care about those issues want to see the issues posted IN THE THREAD not somewhere else.
It is done for you guys, for those who have issues and not being able to help themselves.
And stop this passive/aggressive game.

fair enough phanes. he started getting personal first so could only return like for like.
but you do have to concede for new users some things on here are not just there in plain sight to be found out. Not just a simple search away. There's a 700 page thread and everything else is in technobabble. Its simple and intuitive for you cos you already know it. Its like telling someone to learn how to do keyhole surgery by just telling them to read a book. Not even a specific book, just "a" book.

yeah right, because it was me calling ppl a "****" around here. read my posts, i point people out where they are wrong, and usually offer help in the very same post. you are complaining that you can not learn if nobody explains it to you, yet when i explain what you did wrong you still complain. seriously dude, it is not that bad to make mistakes, and i never blamed anyone for that (prove me wrong otherwise!), but it is bad if you don't accept that you made a mistake and learn from it. the fact that about ten threads got moved from the dev section to general or q&a in the last week alone is proof enough that everybody is just posting whatever he wants whereever he wants. i don't think i am secretly pulling any strings (actually i don't even know what you are trying to say...?), and it was for sure not a personal victory, all i did was one neutral post about the thread being in the wrong forum. if you can not deal with critics about your behaviour then you shouldn't come to the internet. go to your gazillions of friends, if they support that behaviour. this is a community, and if it is asked too much from you to stick to the most simple, general rules (that apply to ALL forums on the internet btw!) you won't find people to be that helpful. and obviously you need help.
you have contributed absolutely zero so far, except spamming the dev forum and flaming around here, you think you make friends like that? if it wasn't for lenny and his endless patience you'd still be crying like a little baby whose toy is broken...

[Q] Notification Volume

Leo1024 is my device. I'm using HardSPL with 2.15.50.04 radio. MAGLDR 1.12. Leo70 WP7 build.
No matter what I set my volume to for ringing, notifications, alarm, it's always max. The only time volume is not max is when I set it to vibrate. Is there any fix for this?
I know people were having Wi-Fi issues with certain SD cards, but I was not. I have my WP7 fully activated with my activation code from MS.

Yeah this seems to be some sort of bug in the build... i've found that setting the volume at 3 - is perfect, though using headphones for music you'll have to turn it right up again....
There's also a registry tweak elsewhere on the forum that apparantly fix's it but it doesn't fix it properly, seems to set the lower volume to come in a little higher, around 10-13 ish....but above that doesnt scale again - is just max volume...
Cheers
Paul

i'm not the one who posted this but... This is a problem that needs a fix 'developing' - it isn't a question with a simple answer, it is a bug, so why is it in the wrong place?
You guys need to lighten up a bit, step down from that high horse & take off the forum police hat, it says member under your name not Moderator - if it was as simple as answering a Q with an A - then why didn't you just do that??

I have my volume set to 2 and vibrate when I go to sleep with it on the charger, which means I can't use the alarm and bug my wife to set the alarm on her phone.
@KrewsialNL- think outside the box dude. As @paulrgod said, it's more than a simple Q&A, especially since you had no answer for it.

Know what.. i'll just stop commenting at all..
The bug was already reported to DFT and Cotulla, also were there other threads available in regards to this.
Enjoy and good luck to you all..

Mate - i didn't mean to upset.
Please dont stop commenting - im sure you dont have 41 thanks for nothing?
It's just that there are a lot of new people on XDA recently - people who don't live on here like some of us
The search is a useful tool - but you have to know what your searching for in the first place - often needing to know the correct word or phrase. I myself have spent ages searching for something, to find nothing, make a post and then be linked to a relevent thread..
It probably takes less effort just to answer a question than to post a sarcastic remark, insult someone's intelligence (Q and A - meaning Questions and Answers!) and report a thread... I just don't see the point?
This is the most helpful community, but also one of the least respectful... a new member posts a question in the wrong place and he gets jumped on and a thread reported... come on, it's only a forum? Isn't it? Not like the guy commited a crime?
Cheers

I guess I could have said it a bit differently.
If you've been active in other forums then just this new one, you get annoyed by incorrect placed topics and mostly by topics that are posted numorous times.
I guess my bad start today at work (yeah, i'm spending most of my working days on XDA ) got the best of me, and I took it out here. So I will honestly say I might have reacted a bit harsh.
So, the answer? It has been reported as a bug already to the developers of the first WP7 Rom for our HD2 phones, and all we can do is wait.
There are some threads mentioning a registry hack, though I haven't found this very functional, as this doesn't work all the time.
Sorry guys, I'll try to throw my bad mood towards the people that work for me instead of all of you

I actually had removed WP7 from my HD2. I did search the known bugs thread prior to posting this and hadn't seen it listed. I'll stick to having android on my HD2. I love WP7, and it was fun to try out while waiting to purchase an HD7, but can't use something that buggy yet.

What kind of lamery is this?

I'm trying to post a question on the thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1138051
For the Taboonay 2.2 rom and it says that I need to post 10 times elsewhere before I can ask my questions (paraphrased). This is lame!
How am I supposed to ask a question in a relevant thread and have my problem potentially fixed and have others see this problem fixed so it can help them as well? Is this not what forums are for?
This is a bit of a rant but I really need to figure out how to get my bluetooth working after I updated to 2.2 so does anyone have any idea how I can be able to post in that thread to get my (and potentially others') problem solved? Thanks.

This is a tech question post. In the question forum.one more post from you will be 3 of 10 to be able to post in developers section.
This rule is to help keep non development related post from new members out of the forum.read forum rules is advisable ..
Enjoy XDA don't confront them.the rules are set in stone
Post here someone will help likely.
Good luck.

Well, Vache asks us to post in that thread if we need help so that's what I tried to do. I'll post something here-- it's still a lame rule and these arbitrary forum rules are really annoying though. I still can't get over the ones that filter-out three character (or less) searches. I mean, how else is one supposed to search for things like: pdf, etc, gui, kde, x86, ...? Anyway, I don't think these forums have this filter but I'm trying to increase my post count.
Thanks.

Giggles your close

in my opinion its a stupid rule. Im a long time reader and have lots of experince with roms / computers / programming and cant post to dev till ten post so spamming which defeats their purpose of trying to reduce spam
Sent from my Transformer TF101 using xda premium

Rules are rules, I think the 10 post rule is to keep it sorta tidy in here, I was on one forum with little rules and it was fluded with crud.
I don't mind the rules ans love the search button.

I've got nothing to add.. just wanted to see my post count..

I for one don't know if it really is all that effective compared to perhaps a 1 week post restriction after initial signup. I read through the replies in the dev section and can understand why a dev would not revisit their thread. I could go spam several threads to get to 10, but why contribute to increased database size for no beneficial reason? I'm sure this view has been expressed before.

It's precisely BECAUSE of spammers that this rule was instigated in the first place.

No offence, but I think we seemed to have missed the point of this post, and that was to try and help this guy out with his bluetooth problem. Now since you have your 10 posts is it safe to assume that you have moved on to the taboonay post and asked your question there?

I think there should be more notice that you are limited for the first ten posts when you sign up. I'm quite observant, but also quick and to the point. I probably signed up in the least clicks possible and read only what I needed. Then I tried to post in the taboonay thread as well and got shut down by the forum.
Not saying it doesn't say it; but as I don't usually miss things, you might want to make that more clear.

I would *love* it if someone helped me with my Bluetooth problem. I posted here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1302082
and in the Taboonay thread but so far have had no bites... Guess I'm the only one with the problem or something.
Personally, I'd rather post in a forum or sub-forum rather than a thread that has hundreds of replies each having a different problem. It's kinda like having multiple conversations with one other person over chat. Anyway, vache asked us to post there so I did...
I also would love to figure out to keep the speakers muted when the headphones are plugged-in but it seems that I'm the only one having that problem too-- although maybe I'm not using the right searchwords...

This is probably little comfort, but if you're experiencing such issues with Taboonay, perhaps you should go back to stock? I'm running stock, I'm very happily running stock, although I am using Richard Trips kernel just so that I can overclock. Everything works fine on my tab...

The reason they did not respond to your question in the tqbooney thread is due to the fact this is actually answered several times in there and on other threads.go to.

What have you tried so far to resolve those issues? Personally i would do the necessary wipes of the usual things, then reinstall the rom and see if that fix the issues...To me almost all Rom seem moody, you can do every thing right and end up with alot of problems. Do the same thing again and they work without a prob...
I am running stock 3.2 only modified for Root with Thor Kernel. The min i pair my BT headphone or plug in head set, the sound on tablet speaker get muted. Also if you still having prob with the Rom after you have tried all possible solutions. I will advice you to try the stock 3.2. Its really fast and Zero problems so for.

SERIOUSLY?!? Is that the best you can do? How patronizing is that?!?! Tell me to search the forums and say that there are solutions to my problem but not actually help me by providing links etc.??? I know how to search forums and have been doing so for well over a decade. Why do you think my post count is so low!?!?!? I search forums!
Now, when I finally have a legitimate question that I can't find an answer to all I get from people is "search the forums".
You're right about a couple of things. Yes, there are questions about getting Bluetooth working in the Taboonay 2.2 thread but they are all fielded by *me* with no answers in sight! You're also right about the fact that there is probably an answer here in the forums-- but I can't find it so I'm asking for help!!!!
Seriously, telling me to search the forums and not providing any concrete help is more of a waste of time and space than actually re-posting a solution!
Sorry, if this sounds like I'm angry, but it's because I am. BTW, did you actually look at the Taboonay thread? You may have noticed about 50 people asking how to fix the market on the latest upgrade and multiple solutions re-posted. No one got after those people for re-posting the same question multiple times. Also, I didn't need to re-post a question about the market because it was there and I fixed it.
Now, it's my turn: if you're not going to be helpful don't post anything at all!!!

I tried doing a fix permissions in CWM and I tried re-installing TabletTalk. I haven't tried a full wipe yet but that's because I'm afraid to lose my stuff. I still need to figure-out a proper backing-up solution (which I haven't started to look into yet).
I'd prefer not to install a stock 3.2 if possible but I guess I could try that. I just want to make sure I stay rooted.

[Q]{Noob} 3G data not working

Hello HD2 users,
I'm an X10 user so I'm pretty noob in HTC HD2 android development.
The problem is that my dad has this phone and he tried to boot this rom.
Booting went good, everything is working except 3G data. I haven't found any buglist on this thread, so I don't know if it is normal or not. Everything is configured just like by me, even restoring stock APN settings doesn't help.
He has also some Froyo ROM and there 3G works just great. But Froyo is already old ROM, so I suggested him ICS.
Please tell me if You have any solution or the problem is just with ROM.
PS. If the problem is with ROM could You suggest any fully working ICS SD card ROM.

Not even a minute of searching the keyword "data" on that thread, and I already have the fix.
Let me give you an advice.
When experiencing a bug in a ROM, do this:
1- Check the first posts (probably will have a bug list or fixes for bugs)
2- Search the thread with potential keywords.
3- Post in the rom's thread.
4- Post your question/bug in Q&A.

Well, I would rather disagree with this ;P
The "no-data issue" seems to be quite frequent or at least my little research make me think so. I spent many hours testing different ROMs and searching for the solution (reading the SD and NAND info, changelogs, searching for "3g", "data connection" etc.) and I've found nothing, so maybe it's all about knowing HOW and WHERE to seek for the solution ;P... or just being lucky.
I would love to "post in the rom's thread" but I'm not interested in wasting my time to post 10 replies if I don't have anything to say or to spam in some God's forgotten topic just to get the opportunity to write "my 3g data sucks, mommy help! ". I don't who invented this 10-posts block for development forums but it's definitely annoying.
What I would do is pin the solution somewhere so that it was visible for everyone. The xda forums server would then be free of hopeless research done by users like me ;P
Since you posted the solution I will try it and - if it works - add it to my 3g-unfriendly roms list...

Thanks, this helped very much. The ROM isn't fully working. I've tested MIUI v.4.1 and data was working but it wasn't fast enough.
I'm just wondering why there is no buglist

1- I did, and as I mentioned. NO buglist. What the hell, can't You read?
2- I did also, but there was nothing about it.
3- Why, there are 100 of replies so the dev won't read it so soon.
3- What have I done? C'mon think a little bit.

Not sure if troll or pure stupidity. (I believe it's stupidity)
First of all, do not rant at those who are trying to help you. (especially if they DID help you)
Second, "3- Why, there are 100 of replies so the dev won't read it so soon." Who are you to be helped by the developer himself? huh? ... when I said "ask it in the rom's thread", I didn't even think of the developer. But the users, there are many experienced members who had tried that particular rom, and probably faced the same issue and had it fixed, and they were going to help you. I DID NOT MEAN THE DEVELOPER HIMSELF.
And that advice was for future reference, I did not mean this thread. I repeat, I DID NOT MEAN THIS THREAD.
In case you don't know, Here is the definition of the word advice:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ad·vice : Guidance or recommendations concerning prudent future action, typically given by someone regarded as knowledgeable or authoritative.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
And with that attitude, I doubt I will be helping you again.
Have a nice day !

So, you're having a go at the guy who provided you (and probably a few people if the problem is as widespread as others claim) with the fix? *facepalm*
