Actually they are for searching to find existing answers, but that's besides the point.

Correct - upto 7MB download possible (if your very lucky lol)
so better then the G that i some times get ?
Yes better in the sense that it's faster.
Just remember that depending on your mobile phone contract you will pai for every KB you download.

amazing.. most of the planet thinks that google is the best search engine..
maybe it's how you are searching? let me guess you keep finding the same questions and no answers to the post you just started? guess why??
because people keep asking the same thing over and over again without reading!
I've just typed LEO BATTERY LIFE into the search at the top and read the threads that have popped up (I managed to scroll past the first two) and read the relevant ones..

Your initial question is not something I would search XDA-developers for anyway. Why not try a more obvious place like, say, the user manual?
Here, let me Google that for ya.
Page 39, Status Icons.
and the name of thread is great too 'H?' i would be better only with '?'

Best way to make the battery last, turn off the 3G/HSDPA signal

The "95 yr olds", as you put it, want the forums to be kept as clean as possible, without unnecessary posts that are simply asking things that have already been answered.
It's so that people who do search only find 1 or 2 threads with answers in them, not 100 threads all asking the same thing. It's for the better of everyone that uses the forum, including you
i must say the search is bad as i can never find wat i want!

Stock ROM?

I need to go back to the stock ROM where can I find the latest version?

well this is exactly why i'm going to think twice before starting a topic in this forum. I wouldn't want a response like this to ever happen to me.
41 more days till n1 yay me
No its just this question has been asked numerous times and if people bothered to search they'd find their answers within 1 minute.
In this case ---> http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=559
OMG the nexus one android dev forum!
OMG its the very first link on the page!
OMG that was so much easier than starting a new thread
OMG im bored

I understand. I was going to start a topic asking if I should get my n1 engraved in a few weeks and see if anybody had any good reasoning why I should or shouldn't do it (other than poor resale value and a few other things). But I could just see all the flames now. So I guess I won't.

lol. Thanks but I did search and I have already came across that thread before. That post is more of "what should I get my phone engraved" and I'd be asking if I should or shouldn't..
I'll just check on other forums to see whats up. Thanks though

[Q] Louder volume hack?

Anyone know if one exists for Tab?

Searched for half an hour, 'AMIGO.'
Honestly, it's guys like you- bent on trolling and pointing out the search function- that litter these forums up even more than those who don't search at all. I'm aware of the search function. I didn't post out of laziness. Clearly I couldn't find what I was looking for or I wouldn't have posted.
Do something USEFUL with your time, troll.

Thanks again for the direction, unfortunately I have a T-Mobile US Tab so I have no dialer to enter this settings menu through. Any other suggestions? Also, the low volume I'm looking to fix is in the media player- when I watch movies, other media, the volume seems incredibly low...
Install euro firmware to get the dialer and then the modem switcher to get call/3g data functionality.

I had the same issue(s) with volume. This solves the problem, with changing sound volumes in speakers and headset. Flash as stated above, your problem will be solved.

In fact the Search function doesn't work,at least on my Galaxy tab. Hen I clidk on Search this forum, a window pops open and when I click in it to bring up the keyboard,it disappears! So I go to advance search,where at least I can type something but it always says no results found!
I've been avoiding flashing my sgt, not that I don't have the ability but more-so because I don't want to have to set everything back up again.
However, after reading this thread, it's another reason to flash me thinks

I just reminded you of a forum rule, you probably didn't read. I said search in a friendly way, and did not use any insult.
I posted a volume fix for the tab, so I know if you searched, you could find it. What litters the threads are the same questions repeatedly asked by people who don't do their work, and the people who argue and insult.
If you disagree with someone, you should say so, and stay away from insults.

I agree with you. The search process is pathetic. I always go to the pc when I look for something on xda, because its so slow or non-existant on the tab.

Read YOUR last sentence....instead you've posted 4 times for something you've said in your own last post. To most, that would be considered "litter"!

People don't go out of there way to help ignorant people that can't be bothered to help thereselves. If you would of bothered to read and educate yourself about the bootloader unlock process, you would indeed of found out that OTA updating with an unlocked bootloader would brick your phone.

Anybody that reads a tech website knows about it. Samsung's already put out a press release acknowledging the problem. When it's fixed, I'm sure they'll know about it before we will and put out another press release. Nothing's going to hijack your device that you don't allow. Don't visit sketchy websites, download iffy apps with a low number of users, and don't accept certificates from website's you're not comfortable with. For the time being I'd disable "Unknown sources" in settings and enable "Certificates" in the browsers security settings. Samir pointed out earlier the naive could get in trouble accidentally. We here aren't naive.
May be i used the wrong word what i ment was an normal user who is a layman when it comes to tech and believe there are many on this site to who come for advice.
Will i still be able to update to the jellybean ota after this root method?
