Being NEW is no excuse not to do research. Doing a search is easy. Especially when this topic is EVERYWHERE!

Maybe you should have done your research before posting rude responses which don't contain the answer to a "stupid" or
simple" question. I'm referring to the sticky: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2320430

@TheAxman is right. When there is threads on page 1 about exactly what you are asking there is no reason to start a new thread. It has always happened and will always happen though. By calling out people you teach them. If everyone holds newbs hands they never care to learn and will continue bad behavior.
The following was my opinion. I am solely responsible for it.

Posting ? 's in the wrong sections

As i look thru each section i noticed there are more questions in the wrong sections than there are in the proper section for them....wtf os so hard about posting a question in the question/answer thread section of this forum???

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?

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 don't understand why people aren't being reamed more for this! The first time this happened when 2.2 dropped, people were getting flamed hard for starting new threads. We know that they know the answer... but they still want to pester and ask the question... as if it will bring the solution sooner.
Just do the pre-order for the 3D and get that phone. It will be permanently S-OFF out of the box!

Ignore some of the people on here. It is okay if you are noob, but be sure just to search next time. And if you manage to not find an answer when searching, don't be afraid to post a question. There are a lot of good people on here that will help you.
Don't be sorry my friend.

cry me a river dude. you didnt take the time to try and solve the problem yourself. a simple search would have turned up the 700 other threads on the same subject. in fact, when you start a new thread and type in the thread title it automatically loads a list of similar threads which you obviously ignored. no sympathy from me. next time, dont be lazy and search
I don't understand this attitude... If it wastes your time then don't answer. Some people use the xda app which all of you xda cops should know is not search friendly. I get it though... its easy to tell someone what they should or shouldn't do on these forums.

[Poll]So what is everyone's favorite ROM so far?

Just curious as to what everyone is using so far, and why they like it. Maybe a centralized inquiry of user thoughts will help out the devs, as well as other users when deciding what rom to choose.
What features do you really enjoy on the ROM you are using now? What do you wish to see? Any major deal breakers on other ROMs that stopped you from choosing it?
This is the DEv forum. It is not for Questions and answers or polls. This needs to be in the Q&A forum.

No, users need to hit the report button and at least this moderator will not only move them, but lock them, because they're useless. Best ROM threads are closed, as is this one.

Pls delete.

After a lot of searching and reading i found the answers i needed about the padlock bootscreen thanks to the developers that got it.

If this is an old topic sorry but I do not have time for read all related treads.
This is what's happened,
Rooted ATT S4, installed twrp 2.5.0.2,
Installed Sho 1.5, used Loki doki
I was getting the costum screen with the padlock warning when booting. All was well.
Decided to try beta 4.3 rooted, now the padlock screen is gone and I get regular boot screen. Download screen says Samsung official.
I'm still rooted and booting OK.
Uninstalled and installed clean rom ,
Flashed lokidoki, still rooted and boot screen still stock.
Is this normal?
If this is in the wrong place pls move it and if this s old news delete it.

Why not ask in that specific thread?
Because it's more likely to get a wider audience as a new thread, if you have no input, why comment?

Let me rephrase that - since I have no idea about your specific ROM I can not say if it is a problem very specific to that or if you are another clueless guy who did not care to read the rules of this forum starting with the first one:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/announcement.php?f=2494
Maybe I am clueless, maybe I don't spend enough time trolling other peoples posts? If you've nothing constructive to offer then why bother? Asking why I've asked the question is totally irrelevant if I've already asked it! Don't you have some star trek annuals to alphabetise or something?
And yes I did read the rules, but like most people on here I'm not infallible, is forgetting a simple rule a hanging offence? The problem here is someone with nothing better to do than pick up on others mistakes! A petty one at that.. If I wanted trolling I'd of asked on twitter, seems I made the mistake of thinking most people on here were helpful rather than critical..
Use uTorrent, I see you are using the Vuze client which causes issues with some models.
aTorrent is the best client by far!
