[Q] help! need link to thread ive seen!

I am looking for that thread that shows a step by step on how to get your phone setup like specific examples. What i am looking for mainly in that thread is there is a bunch of screen shots of widgets and their names. for instance there is like one dedicated page to battery icons etc... i cant seem to find it anymore. can anyone help!

This is DEFINITELY not the way to search the forums here at XDA.
We all have to search, sorry. But good luck.

MUST nooooTTTT POSt lmgtfy!!!!!!!

Did you think i had not already searched prior to posting my thread? Oops, YOUR bad! I searched for hours. and the reason i was unable to find it was because it was burried very deep in these forums. Your smug replies that do nothing to help but give you another +1 for your post count are not needed. Next time just don't reply if you can't help.
to anyone looking for that same thread it is listed here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=761517

Glad you got the search function working properly! I helped you look harder!! LMMFAO

You're right. Very old news, but thanks for posting and not using the search function.

Actually, I did / always do a search...
..and when I posted the new topic, it ALSO does a search for you to list similar topics but nothing came up there either...SO...
Erring on the side of wanting to help I posted anyway...
Sorry to have taken up so much of your precious time and I promise to do my best not to help as much as possible again...

I guess "help" is a relative word then. Clogging up forums with topics that have already been posted time, and time again is not "help" as fast as most people are concerned.
When searching remember that there are more than one sub-forums for the A500 that you can search at the same time.

Meh, just blow it off. If you think this section is bad, be glad that you didn't post something in the Moto Atrix forum. It's even worse over there.

Seems like this site gets more and more full of users on one month old accounts with 1000 posts posting non-helpful replies. Who gives a **** if it was already posted? Why didn't you just stay out of the thread since you already knew this?

Letting it go...
yup...yes I am...No worries. If I didn't want to get verbally assaulted every once in a blue moon, I wouldn't post
...but on the off chance someone didn't see it and it could help...I'll take the chance Every Time...and even when I do know how to search and use search quite a lot, Every Once in a while search does not turn up the exact phrase or wording or whatever. Sooo...
ANYWAY...
Letting go while knowing that 99.9999 percent of the people here Really Do want to help...
At least I'm not asking about root for 3.2 right?

Give it a rest, please? The guy wanted to help, and he's been a member WAY longer than you. Post count is irrelevant.

Huggs and kisses guys.
posting to this,saying its already posted is as bad if not worse then the thread itself as far as spam goes.
Oops I just did it too.
Sorry my friends seeing you bicker over this makes me cry.
More huggs needed.
I know my post was not needed.

Rooting my phone?

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.

No one helped you other than me because the answer is all over xda. No one likes to spoon feed no-searchers. But I always help if I can. Don't be lazy and expect in deep answers. You are new as everyone here once were. But your replay was disappointed not for as i don't give a ****, but read forum rules first. And we stop here. Thanks

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.

Why don't people read some before asking a question that has been asked 1000 times! Don't be so dam lazy!

nice reply
how about instead of being a jerk just respond nicer. Maybe ... just MAYBE this person bought this pohone because of whatever reason and was too anxious to KNOW the answer many others already know without reading thousands or even hundreds of posts. I do not get why so many people have to respond like a dope. Have YOU ever asked a question you just wanted answered without doing some research?? WHY CANT WE ALL JUST GET ALONG!!!!!

Thanks, just that I wanted a response well any more, newly buy it and have always liked the root, so I wanted to know if there is root, I do not make changes rom or anything, just root, thanks for the brother response, very friendly your comment

Unstable temp root via Kingroot app, reboots randomly (usually within 5-10 minutes from my experience, but long enough to uninstall the bloatware from verizon). Thats about it for right now.

This looks like something I may have tried in the past, but I could be wrong. Judging by the date of the post, I'm pretty sure it doesn't work, otherwise there'd be whole lot of people here going bananas and passing out from the shear joy of finally having root. But, like I said, I could be wrong, and hopefully I am. If you decide to take the plunge, let us know and hopefully everyone here in Verizon Note 4 land will have a reason to finally celebrate.

OK I may try it...wish me luck

Didn't work

I noticed your post in another thread, and it reminded me I did try this, or something similar, with no luck. It's something about CF Auto Root our phones don't like to play nice with. I think it's the locked boot loader.

that method only works on DE models.

I sincerely want to know why did you copy/paste ur post on several threads and even created your own? You're just making clutter and need to do a little research before posting. Even I knew soon as I saw CF that it was not for us.

why do you "sincerely" want to know tht for...so i posted in 3 diff places ....whats the big deal. only three place. wow lots of room there. very annoying right, whats funny/annoying to me is ..people like you spend more time criticzing other poeples posts instead of trying to find solutions to our root problems

I think the annoying thing they're referring to is the fact that there's at least two or three threads here talking about root. Each one specifically states that root is not available in any form, except for temp which does not last past reboot. I haven't had my Note 4 as long as some others here have, but I can understand how annoying it can be to see multiple threads on the same subject, only to find a post asking about something that is easy to find an answer to. Just saying.

All 3 are on the same board, so here I am looking at new posts for that board and all I get is the exact same statement each time. I suppose if you posted one here and one in one of the developer boards I could see your point. It would make more sense if it were one here and one over at android forums and then another at some other forum.

As you can see the other members understand very well the annoyances you have brought. We aren't really attacking or being rude but its the fact that it doesn't take too long to do a little research to see what has been tried and what hasn't. Also as it's been said a lot of us are looking for new things and solutions. So posting the same question several times gives us false hope we are all looking for new info man that's all.

Thank you guys for all of your hard work! I'll get to work on an instructional video.
The 80%battery thing is something I'm not familiar with. seems like a dealbreaker for some.
