First of all kid, I am not required to answer your question.
Secondly, with an attitude like that you won't get anybody on here that will.
Third, I responded to BOTH of your posts, but because you broke forum rules, it wasn't how you wanted it to be answered.
Fourth, you need to give to receive around here. You gave us no information about what kind of device your "cuzin" has. So no one can help you even if they wanted to.
Fifth, where the hell are you getting 3 days??? One of your posts were posted on December 22 and the other was December 23. I responded to both less than twentyfour hours!
Sixth, if you were to follow rule #1 you would have found something I'm certain.
Seventh, I'm issuing you another infraction for violating rule #2. The first time was a warning... now that I'm seeing that you didn't deserve the warning... you deserve the actual infraction itself. Now instead of being a jerk and giving you the points for the infraction and stacking another one for violating rule #2 on top of it giving you six points (ten needed for a break) I'm still only giving you the three. I highly recommend you read the forum rules if you are serious about being a part of the community. Such attitude may be acceptible on other forums on the internet but not here on XDA-Developers.

Any moderators watching this threads?

Hello Moderators,
People are posting their roms here which are not doing what they are supposed to do, but the page where one dodwnloads the roms remains the same without any update on what is working and what is not.Can anything be done about it?
lol maybe if they could tell what you were asking.
Edit: I get it.. Are you seriously *****ing bout devs who take there personal time to post ROMs but not always update their main page?
I think he is talking about the WIKI pages and if that is the case then to the OP you need to understand how this works
1. a dev posts a rom they cooked in a new thread
2. it is up to us as a community to update the WIKI not the moderators
if the rom is a popular one then it is going to stay at the top of the treads deal with it.
edit: nope you are right Tipharet I read it worng. rukshmani you need to deal with it and read the treads that these roms have before you flash them anyways becuase if you dont then you end up asking questions that have been asked 200 times before. please stop complaing about these great people taking time from their lives and families to make our experience better.
Well, just read through the posts and you will no what is working or not working. It really is as easy as that.
Updating the first post to a ROM release is the responsibility of the developer of that rom. Not the job of the moderators.
If you think a rom needs to have it's post updated, why don't you PM the developer yourself. If you were instead referring to the sticky-wiki for tracking roms, you aare as free to update/edit that as any one of us are.
Not, trying to sound rude, but it is difficult to understand what EXACTLY it is that you are asking for.

seriously I try not to flame people but apps2sd is a perk on a rom not a requirement! stop trying to get a moderator involved because you dont want to do the work little bit of work that might need to be done to get something to work that YOU want.
if I didnt think it would get me susspended I would pull a page from gbhils book and post a rediculiously inapropriate image to get this thread closed down.
edit: not directed at you gomorrah I forgot that what you quoted doesnt show when I quote you.
Developers cannot sit at their computers 24/7 watching to make sure every developer updates his OP timely... u have to realize two things. One these guys developing roms 99% of them have real world jobs and families which take 99% of their time. Two, this would take time away from the mods real job which is to warn and ban offenders of the forum rules. This is not part of a mod's day to day task. Now if a developer is posting bs roms that r bricking everyones' phones that have downloaded them then yes at that point a mod would have to get involved but that has never happened to my knowledge on this site. Sorry dude but just b/c everyone else on this forum has the same phone as u doesn't mean that it will accept new rom flashes/modifications the same as someone elses. Any slight variance is settings from urs to the next guys could plunder a rom flash attempt. Do ur homework before messing with ur phone. Tons of others have had no problems so obviously they did something right. Most of all every developer always puts " Not responsible for what happens to ur phone by flashing this software" It's completely ur risk.
i see link is not being updated.. and other link is being updated.. two links active and same rom download pages.. Maybe, he clicked one of those that is not being updated and got confused.

who knows... to a certain degree forums should be a priveledge not a right...
too bad we couldn't create a "pay for membership" forum where all the members control the other members, threads, guidelines, etc.
a self-moderating group of like minded people that understand the guidelines and follow them. if you could be banned with no refund, i'm sure people would be ready to follow rules, not give opinions where none were asked for or any of the other atrocities i've seen on this site since i joined just a few weeks ago.
i sometimes wonder why there aren't "etiquette moderators" that enforce common forum etiquette. i find that too often one wrong post can start 6 pages of useless banter eventually rendering the thread a personal vendetta against one person, vs the etiquette moderator simply dealing with the issue and not allowing good threads to go to thread hell.
i can dream right?
R
My opinion, Android is just so seemless and appealing to everyone, not just tweakers. So what we are seeing is more folks that havent been in forums like these and understand what is right and wrong. When little petey goes to the sprint store and sees the TP2 with winmo, plays with it and says "This is just to hard for me." he then picks up the Hero and says "Wow, this phone is more asthetically appealing and much easier to use.". Hence why we now have to deal with a much lower intellect of members because quite simply, Android is a great OS.
Oh my God, I can't even believe this thread exists. I'm moving to AndroidCentral.

Sounds like you were trying to revert back to stock. I assume the stuff you are talking about is yellow. If so try to use odin again.
The obvious question to me is, did you try Odin again after it failed? Logic would suggest that if Odin failed I'd have to do it again.

This as well as learning to use Google instead of posting a thread on a forum.
It is because of your tar file on odin.it was two small.try re odin ing it with a tar file of 255 mb or something like that.happened to me before too when I was a super noob but fear not you'll eventually become less of a noob too as time passes

Using google first saves you time because its an immediate response, it saves everyone else time having to an a simple question, and it saves our forums from being cluttered. I said nothing rude and I would have answered his question had it not already been answered (which I highlighted with my quote and saying "this"). If you want to respond to my adult advice and response by acting childish, that is your prerogative but I will continue to post help to those who made an effort to get it.
thats i guess meh cool but a simple reply/explaination would have been "flash odin again" instead of repeating the long rant over and over again too. maybe its jus best to leave this place altogether

I believe his point was, however, that before one starts an endeavor that can break a piece of $500 hardware one should generally make sure they understand all of the possible outcomes and how to deal with them which he pointed out that you didn't. He could have said it in a more polite manner but he was correct.
I have ben to this screen when my odin got interupted. Pull the battery for a couple minutes. Hold down the one key on the keyboard and then power on while holding it. This puts you in download mode. Odin back to stock.

It appears I have one thanks or maybe I cant count. More than likely since I dont cry about wanting thanks that could be it. The purpose of a forum is to get help. Regardless if the answer could be found on google the forum would not need to exist. I am on one forum and it is the most mature forum there is. I see question repeated over and over again. Even in this case people still answer it like it was asked the first time. If all forums were like that, forums would be a much better place.

I do not understand why it is difficult to simply search for an answer. If you cannot find the answer, then post and people will help. As I've stated I do very often provide detailed explanations to people even to those who had not searched for the answer however I always add that in the future they should seek out the answer on their own first. His question had been answered and as such I stated that he should try and figure things out on his own. I have never begged for a "Thanks" and I could care less about them but I have spent hours of my time helping others fix issues and there are many people who can attest to that. Leatherneck has done the same, in fact he has even helped me a few times that I can think of in recent history. On the other hand, the only posts I've seen from you are complaints about other users or asking other users for help. The point of these forums is to allow a place for developers to gather and together fix and hack away at new phones and such, not to aid in every little personal disaster. That is why it is a FORUM RULE to search. A rule for which violators can receive infringements or even bans. By telling people to search, I am not telling them to shut up I am showing people how to be an active member of this community and if you cannot grasp that then your place here is very limited.

Frustrated Noob

Ive never been this frustrated in trying to find how to guides before. Damn it Im just trying to figure out how to install MIUI on my bell sgs2 stock ugkg2 2.3.3 phone. Do I need to update my firmware first and if so with which one since there isnt a bell sgs2 update yet and once i download this firmaware, how the heck to I extract it since they have a password and samsung-firmwares.com does not work for password. /end rant
First you need a rooted kernel which you have to flash with odin. Either cf-root or hellcats or nimph kernel. The first thing after using are rooted is to BACKUP YOUR EFS FOLDER! Then boot into cwm and install MIUI zip from there.
There is a QA thread here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1238494
For guide on how to flash the kernel have a look in cf-root kernel thread. For easy efs backup use hellcats application or manually do it, with the instructions in the relevant thread.

That's because, as you said, you are a bloody noob. If you would have spent more than 20 seconds looking, you would have either find the password (even with google, the first result has it), either the thread explaining how to install it.
These forums have thousands (guessing) of members, imagine if everyone were an idiot like you, and posting **** like this, they would have to close it down.
password is: samfirmware.com

I see no way around this problem as FAQS etc and rules are not read so the genuine user who asks a question as you did gets treated as if they could not be bothered to search read etc .It is partly due to the number of twelve year olds with Smartphones .

The problem Im having is first Im clueless in regards to android phones and 2nd lots of the information Ive been able to find in regards to rooting/upgrading firmware/updating roms are conflicting so that makes me insecure (I dont wanna brick my phone) 3rd I havnt been able to find...so far...explicit information that enables me to download and extract firmware with password for my bell ugkg2 SGS2.
Looks like Im gonna stick with stock till I can find a guide that goes through all the loops that a canadian bell user like me has to go through to upgrade firmware to 2.3.4 and upgrade to the latest MIUI.....

Bro, if you want MIUI you have to do TWO simple simple things from your stock bell state
go look for cfroot kernel thread (ill try to find it and link it for you) use the ones for kG2 firmware, this will root your phone and install CWM (the recovery needed to flash custom roms) this will root your phone on the bell firmware no stock required!
once this is done, download the latest miui zip, put on phone sd. boot into recovery and flash that mofo
You actually dont need stock/ kg6 at all to flash custom roms, but it is nice to learn how to use it for the sake of going back to stock!
I'm not changing my mind. They can take all noobs under their wings, but when I see incompetent idiots like you, I can't control myself. The password is on the same download page you got the file from, and I've already told you. You're here because you're bored, and you want attention, and you spent less than one minute searching for your answer. I know I am aggressive sometimes, but I do help people who put in some effort for something they want. I am also a beginner, so I'm not patronizing you, but what you failed to achieve has nothing to do with android at all. Now stop being a moron and creating a drama.

I sort of have to agree with you minus the aggressive attitude. If you can't answer normally then simply don't answer. You're not only making yourself look like a F*cking idiot to about everyone that reads on these forums, but you are also making the community look bad and there are quite a few wonderful people on these boards.
On a side note, I am a newbie to when it comes to android systems (btw there is a difference between a Noob and Newbie, to bad most people don't remember that) but I did manage to root my phone and figure out how to install stock roms and other roms, within 15 minutes of searching. There are plenty of guides here on XDA telling you what flashing is, what roms are, what kernals are, what odin is for, what root system to use (CF-Root) etc.
Its not that hard, so i do agree with you on that.

Okay, I apologize for my aggressive behavior. I did however help him in my first post after ranting. And yes, I do know the difference between "noob" and "newbie", and I give him credit for correctly categorizing himself in the "noob" group in his thread's title.

Seriously I am TIRED of seeing posts like these in the DEVELOPMENT SECTION of the HD2. If this was the Q and A section I'd still help you. But I feel inclined to post useless stuff on this thread as you have not bothered to read ANYTHING before coming here.
I know everyone starts new, but so did I and I certainly did not post in the DEV section first.
So please, get a mod to move this thread and then I may help you

first off, this post was addressed to developers because ive been told that it has a unique issue with this phone, not model of phone. second, if your not a developer, then its not addressed to you. scroll past it. third,calm down. its just a post. not, the MAGNA CARTA. im not trying to reform or change the way this forum works, im simply doing what i was told to and trying to find a developer that MIGHT need to write a different code for this phone. thats why i posted it here.

Development - where people post their work and things they have made.
Q&A - where people ask questions and have them answered.
There really is no justification of posting this in the development section, so please don't argue about that. You made a mistake, just admit you were wrong. As for your issue you really need to give us more detail. Also, if you think developers are going to take their time to specifically help you as an individual when the chances are you're the one who's made some mistakes then you're sorely mistaken.
Now, as for your issue, you haven't given enough detail. What were the exact steps that you followed? Did the things recommended earlier help?

sprint S7 edge root? kingroot?

Hey guys,
Got my S7 edge (about to activate, very excited!).
Curious if there are any root methods available?
I've seen the S7 kingroot page, although I haven't seen much on these forums about it. Anyone have any insight?
From reading other areas there is no root at this time. Some have tried king root and it failed
True that. Just got my S7 edge too. Way too early for root and roms lol
Should NOT have been too early for root!
Root on Samsung has for a long time been easy since the bootloader is unlocked, and Chainfire has a solution that works after just a little work, mainly getting the correct standard recovery image.
The Snapdragon-based S7 and S7 Edge, sold in the US, has a locked bootloader. This means no root until/unless some busy developer finds an exploit (and then likely no custom recovery/backup).
Tweet @Samsungmobileus and (sprrint users) @marceloclaure early and often - bad press (and returned phones) will hopefully trigger a reverse, or an unlock mechanism like HTC has used in the past.

You can't find the links??? How can you not find the links?
Read the forum rules. Rule 1 specifically.
Post the link to the forum rules and quote rule 1 and I'll give you the link with instructions of how to root. :good:

No i cant find it because I ended up here only to read your useless blithering flame because you apparently failed to read the rules yourself.
real hackers don't read rules unless they want to flame you back for wasting their time.
Can we please remove this entire post and issue warnings/reprimands for Binary100100 and my self for violation of rules:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/announcement.php?a=81
2. Member conduct.
2.3 Flaming / Lack of respect:
2.5 All members are expected to read and adhere to the XDA rules.
10. Help others if you can.
15. Keep threads / posts on-topic

Yeah, it is usually the top post under the guide, news, and discussion section. It says "SM-G935P Root - Updated 08/15/2016"

If you can find the rules but not the links to root then perhaps you just proved my point? You can root your phone. You are very welcome to do so. But failing to take 15 minutes to read and research for yourself (like a "real hacker" would do) you will almost certainly regret it later. Personally, I know that you capable of finding the guide because you found the forum rules and even found this forum yet you state that you can't find the guide. Sorry (not really though) but thats just lazy and I find that rather impossible otherwise. But sure. I'll take reprimand for calling it like it is and refusing to spoon feed lazy wannabe "hackers." Speaking from experience when I say that nothing happens with infractions anyway. At most you're only hurting the community by limiting the assistance by a senior member. Right? But anyway, I won't spoonfeed because all it does is congest this forum with repeated questions and cries for help by people that won't take the time to use the resources that XDA is known and loved for. Yet members like myself have dedicated THOUSANDS of hours to helping members which are truly in need... and they're not even "hackers!" Because at least they've tried. But like you said... "real hackers don't read... " so I won't be wasting any time on helping you or anyone else that continues to take this forum for granted then have the balls to try to call a senior member out on discipline when you clearly know nothing about it.
So... I'm just going to dismiss your worthless bantering as I would any other troll and wish you best of luck.
PS
Even my signature has a HOW TO ROOT guide link in it! That was to try to help people like you. Yet you still manage to complain.
I found it, it just make me mad when people like binary like to ramble on so much and i had to visit his post instead of the guide I wanted.
I don't know why his post came right up when I was searching.
I rooted my phone now i am having trouble un-rooting, lol. I think it was because I switched like day one from g930P "sprint" to g930u, it was great until I rooted, now I can't un-root.
There is some data for you binary, see if you can hit 2000 words this time slacker!
Why don't both you knock off the sophomoric BS and get along. We don't need quoted rules. Either report or ignore. BOTH OF YOU need to heed rule 47 which reads "Come on now, really?"
No more of this stupidity please.
