Are you saying your a know-it-all?
because it sure sounds like it.
MAYBE, they don't know.
You can decide not to help them, but if i know the solution, i will.
Put yourself in their place.

Yeah I agree that it can get annoying, but this thread isnt going to help. These quirks have been around since the dawn of the internet, and they arent going anywhere soon. The best thing you can do is be polite, tell them in a polite way where their question would get more answers, and help them if you can. They are much more likely to listen if you're friendly and helpful.

Ok ok so i had a moment....
Yea rider i am a know it all,you didnt know that?

And what's worse than posting in the wrong section???
Starting a pointless thread to make yourself feel better.

This should be in off topic with the other garbage.

Hmm maybe if i was sitting infront of my computer and seen an off topic section maybe i would have put it there but as it stands im on my phone and that wasnt an option.

Maybe you and the OP should start your own forum for totally excellent and perfect people like yourselves. You can call it Exclusive Wanna Be Developers.
This thread is worse than any noob posting in the wrong place. They do it out of ignorance. You do it out of spite. This is a community of sharing and trading. I myself find great satisfaction in helping others. Noobs posting in the wrong place is proof enough that they need someone's help.

I think he was trying to develop his ability to take criticism so lets help him out...
Why is this post in developing? You aren't developing anything for our phones!
Wow thanks for being an understanding community. I posted it here because I thought the OP of the thread I saw awhile back would see it quicker in the dev thread.
Also, how do you know I'm not planning on developing something for the epic?
No wonder the epic community is mostly dead apart from a couple devs... so many ungreatful and unhelpful jerks.
Thanks to the first reply with the link!

That's the sad truth right now- and what most of the new members think. But try posting in the questions and answers Thread (stickied)- I usually have success in there. Or try the IRC (chat) channel (I think stickied) for quick answers.

K..that's not helping Once we (they) have the 2.2 source, I guarantee you'll be eating up the custom roms/kernels.. as will I. But for now, we're all anxious and pms-y.

Rules are rules bud. We're just trying to keep things organized
I understand rules fine... but I understand courtesy even better.
There was logic behind my reason for posting here that I hoped the community would understand... if a mod reads this just move the thread.

Keep in mind, I'm pretty sure that's based on 2.1. If on 2.2, my best advice is to not remove the drm apks. (It does caution about media issues, which it def causes on 2.2).

Yeah been there done that lol... I removed those from an EE 2.1 rom and then wondered why none of my music would play.

Request: q&a

So, most other phones have a q&a section, so why dont we? That would probably keep people from posting questions in development. Thanks!
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
There is. It is stickied in the epic4g development section.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
But a Q & A thread in the General section isn't a bad idea - some questions have absolutely nothing to do with development, and everything to do with the already-developed.
And some questions don't need an entire thread, just one post to ask and one post to answer. Topics worthy of a full guide should then be the only questions with dedicated threads (and the OP can update the first post as new information comes in, compiling it all in one easy to find place)
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
Also if you have a separate section for Q/A, you can differentiate between different topics, instead of searching through the Q/A topic on the Dev section. Not to sound lazy, but it would be easier to search via topics in a specified Q/A section.
The hero has a q&a section, and it made things a lot easier to ask questions because no one was on your ass for being curious about something.

+1000000000000000 on this!
I have seen countless amounts of topics that are always moved because of confusion, or get bagged on for asking something dumb.
With a Q&A section, people would be free of asking a question, and with all the questions in one place, it may be easier to find the topic you're looking for.
Thank my post if you want a seperate q&a section like the nexus s, evo, captivate, hero, etc. has!

Ok, I got a pm from an admin and he said that he can't control if the Epic gets a q&a and that there are requirements to get one. Sorry guys

How is it a scapegoat? No one cares enough for someone to be blamed or there to be fall out.
Please just add a Q&A board. It would definitely cut down on the stupid froyo topics and the like.

Rooting.

I have had my Evo since Jan ish, I have followed a lot of xda threads and think its finally time to root my Evo. How do I start, where do u begin?

depends what your config is, don't accept the recent OTA's if you haven't yet. www.unrevoked.com is all you need to know for rooting.
Yeah unrevoked was really easy. Now I am a flashaholic, and you will be soon too, lol.
A great place to start is to read the stickies and faq's, rather than posting a whole new post to ask something that's already been asked thousands of times.

This forum is actually for general discussion. The Q&A forum is for help. Though I suppose help can qualify as "general discussion" it's still pretty disingenuous to think that this forum is more suited for helping than the Q&A forum is.
One thing I've found is that people that don't want to put any effort into doing research/experimentation themselves (before asking for help) are the ones that tend to end up with broken phones or just really weird phone issues because they simply follow directions without having any understanding of what they're actually doing.
So ultimately you are burning yourself, but not necessarily in quite the same way as implied in one of the above messages.

by burned yourself, he meant that people are even less inclined to help you now, but you are being a child if you expect a person to type the whole process of rooting just for you on this thread because you are too lazy to read the dam stickies wich already explain it far better and in much detail, its on you friend....next time if you want people to help you, dont act like a spoiled brat

Need some info from a Nexus S user!

Hey guys,
Was wondering if anyone could post a logcat and a dmesg dump from a Nexus S running CM7? I just need both of those logs from a cold boot until the system has settled.
It'd be really helpful! Thanks guys.

i would of helped you out with this if you posted it in the right section. Posting Q's in Development section is one uh my biggest peeves
My bad, if a mod could move it that'd be great. I'm new here, I guess I should have read the rules first!
Didn't mean to offend anyone, I just posted without thinking.

So he's a douche because the op didn't read the rules, the two big articles about what you're not supposed to post in the dev section, or use the obviously labeled Q&A section to post his question?
out of curiousity, what do you need them for? they could contain personal info.
I'm trying to steal all your personal info and be a major douche to all of you! HAHAHAHA!!
Honestly then block out the information that's personal. I never noticed any in a dmesg dump or a logcat from boot up. I'm trying to port the Atmel mxt224 driver that Samsung wrote to HTC phones that utilize the same touchscreen sensor. Not trying to piss anyone off or get anyone's panties in a bunch.
I'm sincerely sorry this is in the wrong section and that I violated the rules. I take full responsibility and wish the mods to move the topic if possible.
Sent from my ADR6300 using xda premium
Wow... give the guy a break...
You almost make it seem like posting in the wrong section is a crime or something.
And I'll even agree to pay for the crime I just wish that someone could move this so I can get an answer and not be flamed which was never my intent.
I was on a roll coding and decided some info from Nexus S users would be helpful and without giving it a thought posted in the development forum. I am "developing" after all but I see my mistake since its not for this phone in particular
Like really guys I'm sorry I just really want some info and yes I screwed up thinking this was the place to post.

[off topic] the sgs offtopic thread!!

Alright, let's finally get all this off topic chatter out of development forums
Welcome to the place for us to hang out when we want to talk about things other than phones
This is posted in the SGS general because its intended for us to talk as an SGS community, not in the off topic forum
I think it would be best to keep personal things like where we go to work/school out of this, as this forum is a public place that anyone can see
Also try to keep things clean, as we have young people among us
Any SGS user is welcome here, don't be scared by anyone Australian, feel free to ask questions too
I'm thinking new topics every now and then, or we can just go where the thread takes us
Again, anyone is welcome, please feel welcome, and if you like, please contribute to the thread
But don't see it as a place to get over your 10 post barrier
If you are spamming to get your 10 posts, we will dob you in
So, what to talk out?
