"hey guys,
Sorry to be a pita(pain-in-the-a**), I just wanted to make a positive contribution to the forum, and help keep the forums clean and tidy.
For the new guys joining this forum, it can be a lonely, confusing place. So I thought you might appreciate some guidelines/pointers before you make your first post:
This section that you are in now, is the General Section, it's for posting information and making observations.
We have a separate section for questions, appropriately named the Q&A Section, which is the place to post questions/queries if you need help, and time is of the essence.
There's an Accessories Section, where you can post about screen protectors/docks/cables, etc for your Tab
Its important to remember, that the Development section is for developers only. You can make a comment on the threads that are posted by Devs, but unless you are a developer, you should NOT be posting threads in the development section, EVER.
Finally, there is a Themes and Apps Section, where you can find/post information about different applications or wallpapers/themes for your phone.
The reason I'm posting this is because I know what it's like to be a 'noob'.
Don't be insulted by that term.
Everyone was a noob once.
But by reading the threads(especially the stickies) and using the Search function effectively (Did you know you can narrow the search down to a single section in the forum?) you can help educate yourself, and avoid duplicate threads where the same info/question is posted more than once. Which increases the chances of the relevant information being more easily accessible to the people looking for it.
So guys, please use the search function, chances are, the question you have, or the information you seek has already been asked or posted before. Else people are likely going to post this in your thread.

careful that was a question!
You guys are hilarious.....
The fact is that despite a sticky and forum announcement, I'm still moving 10+ threads a day from the general section.
So if someone wants to remind people where to post things then thats fair enough.

Don't get me wrong, I know this thread is a good idea, but I genuinely have trouble reading/understanding what k0sh says. Or why someone that thinks he's wasting his time should still appreciate it.
I don't think this will get through to people though. Especially with that title.
Hello,
Would you just cut him some slack? Pretty please?
His english isn't so good because that's not his first language. Malaysian english is horrid, but it's not their fault, visit the place and you will understand.
He is trying to raise awareness of posting correctly in the right section, so I guess at least he has good intention. Although this has been done in the sticky and almost everywhere else.
If you don't like his post, isn't sometimes silence is gold?
Sometimes the harsh response for a post in the wrong section is just crazy in this forum. The harsh response seemed like venting out frustration on an ignorant noob.
In the interest of keeping the peace, I took the liberty to rewrite kosh's post. (kosh, feel free to use it if you want). I tried to keep it close to your own words. I also just added in info about the accessories and themes/apps sections.Hope you don't mind.

Lol... I'd take offence too, if anyone would measure the standards of Malaysian English by k0sh's postings.... what with me being a true-blue Malaysian, born-and-bred. ;-)
True, thanks to the wonderful efforts of our government (I won't go into the corny joke of how oxymoronic our government intelligence is...) the standards may be declining, but it's nowhere near what would be termed "horrid", and sure, we'll have our versions of hillbillies and rednecks (referred affectionately, though politically incorrectly as "jakuns"...) who'd mangle the language to no end... but it'll be quite rare for an English-speaking person to not be able to hold a decent conversation with any Malaysian in the Queen's language here, except of course, you run into the people I've just alluded to... ;-)
Anyway, the idea and intent behind this thread is noble, and to be honest k0sh was just trying to help. Yes, the execution may be a tad flawed, so instead of just harping on him or his standards of English (true, his penchant for "txt-spk" doesn't help matters either)... let's just do what stoney has done, and help each other...
@k0sh... you might wanna change your topic title though, as it's incredibly misleading. Maybe you're trying to have an eye-catching title, but it didn't work, so a change in the title might be warranted. Say, something more straightforward like: "Read this before you post...." or something to that effect, perhaps?
Have fun and be nice...

probably i'll change it , but with another sticky name .. cuz they don't give a damn about rules , announcements . so i better think of silly name ) ..
Out of topic : they will not know the malaysian ppl until they eat a damn nasi lemak ( fried rice ) ... or come and try and see how the malaysian ppl are kind , easy , normal , they make you love them ..
Satu Malaysia >)
This is what Ive noticed, especially when there are some new update for modules and ROM's;
1. A massive repeated posting regarding new updates.
Its not that we dont want to help you guy's who has difficulties installing ROMs/Module to your phone, but please before posting new topic make sure you consult SEARCH button first, then if you dont find any answer thru searching then its the time to consult. I dont know if we are just lazy to search or what. This is all for us to have a well organized Section and for us to find topic easily. Isnt great to have a single thread so that newbie will not have to search back and post a new topic with already answered one? As you can see Forum for X8 and other are already Categorized, so please post in the right section. Some user made an effort already to organize the topics by making a FAQ with it, so i suggest we should use it for general concern about specific topic. Maybe we can control this massive posting by just dont answering there query if we knew that there question already been answered. Hmm dont think that's rude but i think it will help. Coz if we answer it, they will keep on doing that all over again if they encounter another problem. I also admit that I did this sometime thats why if you could notice i use "we". And i want to change it.
2. Flamming
also known as bashing, is hostile and insulting interaction between Internet users. It is clearly noticeable, that we argue in certain things, but please not to the point that we are already fighting/degrading and hurting someone's feeling so please RESPECT each other, If your good/great then be it, but we have to welcome a newbie gracefully, lets make them feels that they were home and accepted. Im sure we once get here clueless about things or if not, not so knowledgeable enough, we are not in a competition here and we don't question your greatness and knowledge, were proud of it. This is a training ground not a battle ground. Were here to have a harmonious relationship with others, besides we are all FAMILY here. I know for some reason that we just dont stay here to get what we want to our phone, but simply to help each other.
3. Patience
I know it is good to have all what we want, but please stop forcing/requesting repeatedly to our developer, we didnt hired them to work for us, besides they are sharing there work for FREE, and even they ask for some donations, well they have the right to do so, as they are working for us. Imagine if all our developer will be get hired by SE and charge us for all their great work. They will have a better career there, and what do you think will happened to us who are just benefited by there free work? Think of that. So please let's be patient, extend your patience give all there time to find the solution. BTW reporting bugs is different from asking/requesting. It just make our dev's annoyed and might lose interest to work for our many cries. They want to give us a stable home for our phone and they knew about that, so we dont have to tell them what to do, well in fact they know more than you do.
These are just some of my observation. Dont get me wrong here coz its for the common good. I may not give you any ROM,s or Module but i can give you Life Lesson and Love. And if you will hate me for this, well sorry but i will just love you and hug you until such time you realize what I am saying here.
Isn't it great to have a good relationship with everyone and i doubt that you don't feel something when you help someone! I just dont get ROM, Modules and learning here, the most important I gained friends!
Well, it takes two to cuddle and i totally agree with u on this

Well i think its normal for them to ask, coz we the user use more our phone than they do. It will took them sometime to release a ROM is they will test every single function in there work. There work is to provide us the ROM/Modules. If they asked us to look for bugs, then that's also the time for us to work, in return with there great work. Coz i know that they will stop developing if we dont tell them about the problem we encountered. Besides they also get idea's to us. Many heads are better than One. And this is also what you called helping hands. Give and Take process not Take and Take (that's a bad idea) .. wink. oh btw I love ya too.

I agree with this thread and i have add one thing for all X8 users:
I daily check some forums (not only x8) and what i mostly see is people that reply to newbie posts in a rude and useless way, we all hate double posts, no search, requests, stupid posts but keep in mind that when you reply " yo, arent you able to use search ?" "use the dammit search!" , these are posts count at my eyes and rude replies.( i hate them )
If you find that someone did the same post over and over, if someone didn't use the search button or whatever, just ignore to reply and pm or report me and i will do something.

I think they will not delete it without a reason or purpose. Maybe your post was against the rules (i dont know), but im pretty sure Mod's here has its reason, and if it doesnt abuse/break rules then you can consult our moderators. Im pretty sure that they will give time to listen to your query or statement. Remember that they were chosen well and proved enough to be helpful. I think no mods here are using there power as a reason.
I firmly believes in the power of reason, not in the use of power/force as a reason.
Edited: GHoSTABUD, i see the one you posted, htc MT driver that uses synaptic right? Thats promising and pretty useful in the future i think.

I totally agree with you, If we dont have something good to say nor help better we keep our mouth shut, coz words is extremely hurtful. We encourage newbie to learn so that one day they will contribute to us, not discourage them because of our rude manners. I always say this, make them feel at home. Coz were once a newbie too.
DON'T DO UNTO OTHERS WHAT YOU DON'T WANT OTHERS DO UNTO YOU
I deletd the that thread (and other 2) because there was another one made before and as the multitouch thread in the past, i've found useless having 8 threads for the same purpose.
Anyway i did copy your post and another one from the delòeted one and the sticky that i made early.
EDIT: and that's why today i've got a pm from an x8 user:
where are you at? lately the x8 forum has become a big mess with useless threads multiple times

There should really be a separate thread for each rom opened up where all the bugs noticed and reported back in the development thread will get addressed with the solution.

That's a nice idea indeed.
You only need someone that take care of the thread while copying all reported bugs and fixes from the thread to the first page, otherwise it will be difficult to track bugs.

No worrie man, i didn't take it as an offence .....sometimes mods are seen as cops and you are not happy when you got an infraction from them
Anyway if you will find that it is a driver or something related to development, you can make a thread in dev forum:
_ give proper how to install
_ give credit where it's right
_ dont post any help questions
and you are done.

But honestly, Darkside had a point but maybe not presented in the best way. I guess some people are tired of answering the same questions when there are clear posts/threads about it that are also easy to find.
I'm a beginner as well but I tend to look for a solution myself rather than asking. But we are all different I guess.
Such is society. The world is full of people who would prefer to have information hand fed to them. No wonder many people cannot infer from information.

Your post explains EXACTLY where im coming from, thank you.
And the part about searching yourself is music to my ears.
yes, maybe i went about it the wrong way, i will admit that...BUT:
I know this isnt my forum, i have no say in anything on here at all...but its depressing having to read the same thing over and over and over - and all these threads do is push the good informative threads off the first couple of pages and makes it very hard to garner good honest information posted by people making a genuine effort to improve things for our phone.
Check the Q&A & General section, count how many ICS threads there are already...all talking about the same thing. Its like all of a sudden theres an influx of new members (probably young guys/girls) who are in a competition to feel part of something, and satisfy this need by posting threads on massive forums like this one without using the search function...that function is there for a reason, its mentioned in the rules and its just common sense to check if what you are about to post is already available...isnt it?
Maybe im completely wrong, maybe im looking at it the wrong way, but i now struggle to find anything of value on this forum because im wading through...well, you get my point....

I am not that clever, but I do know that Search & Read are the most valuable things to use this site. And if I am able to do it, then most can do as well.
I can understand if the Rooting and Flashing of ROMs was explained in a very technical way, but the posters have taken time to do step-by-step instructions. Okay sometimes for noobies it can still be confusing. I guarantee that if they read through that thread then they will have found someone already who asked that question for clarification (which will have been answered).
I am indebted to some very clever folk have developed programs or modified ROMs so that we can root and flash. And also to those who took the time to make the guides for us.
I only wish I knew how to go about learning about developing - it does seem to be a very steep learning curve.

Your post explains EXACTLY where im coming from, thank you.
And the part about searching yourself is music to my ears.
yes, maybe i went about it the wrong way, i will admit that...BUT:
I know this isnt my forum, i have no say in anything on here at all...but its depressing having to read the same thing over and over and over - and all these threads do is push the good informative threads off the first couple of pages and makes it very hard to garner good honest information posted by people making a genuine effort to improve things for our phone.
Check the Q&A & General section, count how many ICS threads there are already...all talking about the same thing. Its like all of a sudden theres an influx of new members (probably young guys/girls) who are in a competition to feel part of something, and satisfy this need by posting threads on massive forums like this one without using the search function...that function is there for a reason, its mentioned in the rules and its just common sense to check if what you are about to post is already available...isnt it?
Maybe im completely wrong, maybe im looking at it the wrong way, but i now struggle to find anything of value on this forum because im wading through...well, you get my point....

How is he supposed to know what you have posted without reading it. You may have tried searching & reading but there was a problem with actually doing the rooting.
There are a lot of folks on here that English is not their first language, so may need help with following the instructions.
If you have learned to use the best thing on this site - the Search - then his reply was worth it.

Oooh. You got me there.
If you can't find the kernel in the development section you obviously must be too thick. USE THE SEATCH BUTTON.
Er, no I won't 'gtfo'
You get out with your pointless posts.
And with your attitude, no one is going to help you out.

Clearly you didn't use the search button, or you'd have found the answer quickly. Or if you bothered to check the stickies for the kernels, or read through the thread.
If the files have already been posted by the developer and confirmed working, why are you asking people if its 'safe'?
And yes, asking people to use the search button is useful, if you even bothered to read the XDA rules.

I have to agree with Olyloh6696 on this one. The advice given was quite acceptable. Everyday new threads are started for no reason when the info is already available. Some people just want to be spoon fed simple information. Maybe they are in a rush to solve their problem and decide why spend hours looking when I can just start a new thread and ask. Only problem is; hours of other peoples time is waisted looking at threads like this one.

You have a very cocky attitude. No one will want to help you in the future.
'Blow me' possibly the worst insult I have ever heard.
And you've used it twice before you edited your other post.

Ok, this is now going to be a personal rant.
@Colossus: feel free to delete or lock the thread if it's somehow inappropriate.
@All noobs who seem to think I'm their personal support assistant or personal liaison assistant and therefore can't stop bugging me to hell and back by PM:
Enough IS enough.
You ALL have a FORUM right here in front of your nose where you can post your nonsensical questions - and there's even Google to answer your brainfarts.
If you bricked your phone - search this forum about how to flash back to Stock (yes, the answer to that has been posted now for a trillionth times) or post this question all over again as asking is obviously easier than making use of your non-existent brain.
If you hard bricked your god damn phone because you decided to disregard each and every warning - I AM NOT YOUR PERSONAL SUPPORT ASSISTANT - if you feel like you want to try the unbrick method posted by the the_laser on setool.net READ UP ON THE REQUIREMENTS and then do whatever you like; I AM NOT ON THE PAYROLL OF SETOOL.NET NOR AM I YOUR NANNY NOR DO I CARE.
Search yourself another idiot you can spam by PM about whatever fart you just made.
Thank you, this is what i have been trying to tell all, enough is anough, i recive tons of SPAM everyday just cuz they cant use the search button. I will no longer reply to people who PM me questions about the same subject someone else made a thread about and on and on, in fact, its like an infinite SPAM.
Feel free to speak your frustration on what me and b.jay say, Cuz i wont give one, enough spam is enough.
@mods feel free to tell me stuff, but we have had enough, these n00bs have already broken rules by spamming us and not using the search button, in fact thats 2 rules broken by n00bs
@n00bs we cant say this clearly enough:
ENOUGH SPAM IS ENOUGH, NO MORE PM'S JUST BECAUSE YOU CANT BE BOTHERED TO USE THAT GOD DAMN SEARCH BUTTON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
IM NOT YOUR SUPPORT ASSISTANT OR A LIVING FAQ/GUIDE!!!
WE DONT GET PAID TO HELP YOU, WE DO IT TO BE NICE, BUT YOU N00BS HAVE CROSSED THE LINE NOW
ANY MORE SPAM AND I WILL LEAVE XDA FOR GOOD (OR AT LEAST THE X8 FORUMS)
IM LITERALLY PREACHING TO MY CAT, AT LEAST HE ACTUALLY LISTENS
Thanks for reading and listening, hope this stays in your heads n00bs, In fact
@mods can you put this in the sticky section please, im sick of rubbish PM's from people!!!!!!!!!
STOP BUGGING ME GUYS
-wilbso
Niceeee
Peace
Spevky
Edit:
I feel Noobs are coming to spam this thread.
Agreed.
I'm a moderator on a forum with over 3,000 members and I knowvhow it feels but with about 10-15,000 people viewing this forum a day , I can't imaging the terror.
--
I think you are right. Also I want to add that many members on forums think that it is a chat room and demand immediate answer to their question. apart from that they become really rude when you are telling them that it isn't right to behave like this on a forum. I like to help others but sometimes they are incompetent to do even the basics. This is what makes me furious sometimes. Ok we are not all experts or developers but we search first and read carefully. That's my opinion. Take care ;-)

@wilbso, Spevky, IrishStuff09
Thanks for supporting the case.
I don't know about your experience, but it's tiresome when you get countless PMs from whomever asking about things that are either already answered (read: a simple Forum search would bring up the answer) or, won't tell a name to protect the innocent, idiotic questions about "can I unbrick my phone with setool2? if yes, how does it work? what do i need to do? could you please take my hand and be my nanny?" just because someone felt like posting something about it without knowing jack**** her-/himself.
If they don't get their so much desired answer in the thread then...
...we haven't stumbled across the post yet.
...we simply didn't feel like answering the same old question all over again.
...we may not know the answer.
...we found the question to be highly boring.
I just find the total unwillingness to try and do some research breathtaking - plus PMing when not getting the answer is what I consider rude behaviour as they seem to expect that we're their living root of endless knowledge.

CONCLUSION:ANNOYED
Last time I received a message with request to 2.3 ROM. I thought that I'm gonna fall from my chair. I don't blame new members, but there is one good rule - think before you post, think before you do anything in your life. Fact that you are 12 or 50 don't dismiss you from that. We are offering you our time, and I love the fact that I helped somebody but there is a border of everything. Keep this forum clean and friendly. Don't cover yourself behind anonymous status - respect people. Peace. Tomek
Aha. And one thing.

first i make that clear: i have never ask a question through a pm which have been answered millions of times and there are tons of threads about it, i always use the search button.
i understand that its painfull to have many spam pm about stupid issues but from what i have see you people asking for this. To exlain myself, i have notice that when one of those stupid questions is asked, what are you doing?,you keep in answering it, i dont know why you are complain when the half or more thanks you have collect are from that noobs, as you say, and that useless questions.(i dont say that you dont make useful post i just say that those who asking a q usualy leave thanks).when you keep telling them the bla bla its common sense to think of you as their personal assistant.
To talk about myself i usually provide links in order understand that their q has already been answered
P.s. i am not writing this to offend you i just have different opinion
@at the guy who keep telling that he is gonna leave.... leave who cares you are not a dev
Hello guys.
(I tried to post 3 links but I couldn't since I'm a new user)
I recently upgraded my Note 3 from KitKat to Lollipop using this firmware and following some steps on sammobile.
I thought that I had rooted my phone but apparantly not, as a kind redditer explained to me here my thread was called "supsersu doesnt work since i upgraded to 5.0" on the /AndroidQuestions section.
He also adviced me to join XDA forums if I need help and that's why I am here. Basically I need to root my Note 3 to version 5.0 using Odin. The only problem is that I have Odin on my computer ( Here was a picture of my Odin map on my computer ) but I cant see the root file there? So my question is basically: How/Where do I find the root file?
I tried searching some on the forum but I guess my searching skills are terrible as I couldn't find something (and I'm pretty sure it should be somewhere here, so yeah my searching skills probably suck).
A huge thanks in advance!

Hello. Thanks for nothing, especially after I said that I already had searched for the solution and not found it and after I explained that I'm not very good at technology as well.
Anyway, since you "helped" me I'll help you back. But since I can't post links I'll just tell you to go to google and search for "How to not be a ****".
Good luck.

Please dude just get out of my thread already.
I wrote a thread and asked politely for help and I explained that my technological skills were bad. I even wrote:
"I tried searching some on the forum but I guess my searching skills are terrible as I couldn't find something (and I'm pretty sure it should be somewhere here, so yeah my searching skills probably suck)."
And still you gave me a cocky lmgtfy link. Do you know how to read and understand English? Cause else u wouldn't have sent that link. Unless you just wanted to be a complete ****. And judging from your replies in this thread (and some other) it's obvious that you're just a ****.
Anyone that read this thread will probably agree with me that your behavior is childish and that you're not very friendly at all.
Now stop polluting my thread, and please get out of here.
