close this thread please..
Appreciate the initiative to start this, however no cross/double posting allowed. If you want the thread to continue on here, let me know and i will close the other one instead (personally, i think it would go better here). For now, this one has been closed.
Thread reopened and other one closed per OP's request.

close it again please : p
first things first. I DID READ THROUGH THAT THREAD. I SAID SO IN MY POST. no more than half way down, is how to do it without the tool that i mentioned. perhaps you could read posts before simply thinking oh, this guy doesnt understand rules. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=888372 this tool, right here. by this guy, using a sprint phone.
and im posting in the development section to bring attention to the fact that it should probably be included in a mod, if it works on the g2.
Please stop spamming the entirely wrong section with your ridiculous laziness. What you said was that you didn't make it past page 9 of a 39-page-long thread.
@OP:
If you are posting a net new tool and/or procedure, then feel free to create a thread with all of the pertinent details. If a thread already exists, then it's best to post instead of creating a new thread.
Thread closed.
hey
do you guys think we could make a few more stickie threads so we can just fill up the entire front page with them? after that why dont we fill up page 2...
i havent gone through them all yet but it looks like theres even a stickie of a thread of all the stickies. did someone divide by zero or something?
can i get a mod to make this a stickie thread? thanks in advance...

Hahahahaaaaaaaaaa
Although it is so mean from you, but i must admit that i had the same thoughts you had; but never the idea to do what you did just here!
I agree. why dont we make every thread a sticky?
Yeah the 100 stickies just suck. Plz make a subforum "for beginners" Or something...
The "Sticky Situation" is temporary. There will be roll-up threads created that will link to all of these stickies later. The fact that they are stickied now is just so that they don't get lost in the transition until they can be added to a roll-up thread.
In the mean time, this thread however is just going to lead to problems and so I'm gonna close it.
Hey guys, relax...the only reason there's a bunch of stickies at the front of every section is that while we were going through ALL the threads in the HD2 sections, we moved certain items to the top by stickying them, which we're going to roll up into a single consolidated thread, one for each section. It's just been the last thing on our list of tasks associated with the changes that have happened today.
That's all, I promise They'll all be out of sight and nice and tidy here very soon, in the meantime, please just bear with us, if you don't mind...
This is a development area.
Meaning if you have created something fixed an error then this is where you post. if you have questions please make a topic in the General section this area is getting filled with junk and multiple post asking things that have been posted if you would just learn to use a button we call the search bar at the top right.
I'm not the mod on this Device but as a dev for this device I want to keep things clean unlike all the other areas. I want people to look as the development area and be like ok thats a rom or recover or root and not have to ask questions.
Next is when in a topic please keep on topic. a few topics are 90% junk because people not staying on topic. DONT make posts that say "I hope this is fixed soon or I'm going to get rid of this device" GROW UP go do some reading and help to to make a fix.
I have to add my 2 cents to this. It's really nice if people other their help and discuss things but sometimes threads have to stay clean in order to be helpful for other developers. So please think about if it's really necessary to add your stuff. Otherwise please use the general section.
If you help the developers to do their stuff quickly we'll be able to write how to threads faster for you guys.
Personally I'll pick only a few persons for testing. This will result in less bricked devices

Maybe link the [DEV] thread to a [DISCUSSION] thread in general section so noobs like use can talk about the development of a given project and not actually post in the [DEV] thread itself.
Also, I wouldn't hesitate to report a post or thread to the mod. I'm not sure how active he is here but it could use a little cleaning.

its a good idea but if people have a question since we dont have a questions area like other forums it needs to be in the general area. or they need to learn to use a search bar/engine. im just tired of pms/email/threads that have been answered already.

You would think by now with how prevalent forums are for all aspects of life, people would know how to use the search feature.

What I meant, exactly, was say a developer starts in on a project - they start their development thread and in the first post, add a link to a discussion thread in the general forum:
[DEV] My project Title
This is my project explanation.
Link to [DISCUSSION] Thread.
So basically, you start you [DEV] thread. Then when you're done, start a [DISCUSSION] thread then link the two together. So noobs, right from the first post, can see the link to the discussion thread. If someone posts a question or chit chat in you [DEV] thread, have it moved to the [DISCUSSION] thread.
I know, it's not ideal, just a thought.

This actually sounds really good to me. The only kicker being what is considred on topic and what isn't? Are testing successes and failures relevant to a dev thread? Only successes? Only "breakthrough" moments? To be determibed by an elite group of our super-dev peers? Determined by the original poster?
Its a very subjective issue, dependent on the knowledge level and/or experience of the poster and reader both (or simply based on what one is hoping to find at that moment as compared to how disappointed one is by what they do find instead).
It could also get really complicated really fast.
Ultimately thats up to the OP.
The whole point is that a dev thread can only stay as clean as there are ways to do it. At least with a seperate (though connected) discussion thread, it can be directed. If someone posts in the dev thread, it should be up to that threads OP whether or not it can stay or be moved- at least now there would be a place to move it.
BUMP!! cause people dont like going to the second page. STOP making questions here this is for DEV's that have something to make the Iconia better not hi can i do this. go to the GENERAL AREA
I am not a developer, and this is the only post I can see myself ever posting here.
I enjoy reading this section like I'd read a detailed tech news site. I know that these same people also read the general section, so I can benefit from their input there.
Here, this section, this is their place to work! They share ideas here. They make things happen here. Aside from this post, I never want to clutter their desks, because I benefit so much from their hard work!
Is there any way to just make you guys permissible to post? Maybe you should have to be a dev to post? All can read, but devs would contact the mod to post? With a Discussion Thread linked in that environment, I could see a solution.
I still want to read. Its valuable. But aside from this post, I have no reason to write here. Butt every reason to watch progress, for my own education and to see what might be round the bend
anyone can be a dev. it just means u fixed a bug or made something happen thats what this section is for not hey can some1 help get you tube working or something like that.
doing another bump to keep near the top
