Click on your screen name, then go to "View Public Profile", then go the "About Me" tab, then click on the pencil-looking object, representing the editing featur,e next to each option you'd like to change. Hope this helps.

so thats how you do it? Makes sense. I always wondered how i did it but i totally forgot.
Man, i feel old.

I have been wondering how to do this for months. Why isn't that in the User CP? LOL

Text messages are scrolled all the way to the bottom when opened! Help!

All of a sudden, whenever I open a text message, the phone automatically scrolls all the way down to the bottom of the page where there is no text. It still works, but it's pretty annoying to have to scroll back up to the top of the message everytime. I don't know what I changed, but I did just install Tweak. Could that have anything to do with it? I didn't tweak any SMS options. Any insight?

If you are using 'Kaiser Tweaks' then un-select D-Pad scroll.
that should fix it..

Awe that sucks! I liked having that feature for browsing IE. But it's more annoying scrolling to the bottom. Guess you can't have it all. Thanks!

Tell you the truth I did a quick search on "scrolled text message" and came up with that solution... maybe there's another solution to keep it active when using IE..
Might be worth a more detailed search...
Hope it helps..

Sorry that it interferes with your IE scrolling, baby boy. Maybe next time you will search and read the other 20 threads about the d pad issues or whatever other issues you may have.
Yes, this is spoon feeding, baby rocking, nipple nurturing country.

Well, following lukybandit's example in the Excalibur forum (so check that for more info), I've decided to start a similar thread here. To save space, here is the original, where the idea came from:
lukybandit said:
Hello Guys,
I notice newbies or sometimes, even regulars asking stupid questions. To save space on XDA, here are some examples that you should steer away from. Take this seriously and it's all in good fun. Before I show you some examples, this is to show that some questions are either already answered in the forum, or use your common sense or finally, if you have no common sense - READ the forum. Everyone was once a newbie but how did we all get here? We searched, read and maybe asked a question here and there, but valid questions. So use the "Search" button, find yourself a topic and seek knowledge. We're all here to help but don't flood the forum with stupid questions. This is to teach all newbies to avoid these kind of questions and cut the regulars some slack. From nowonwards, whatever DUMB thread I find, I will trash it and post the link here.
Example #1:
Can I Put The App(Fruity Loops) On My Dash?

Give me a Break. How do you expect to convert a 5 GIG .exe (Windows Install) file to a .cab? It's a phone. Damn it - Yes, this phone can DO a lot of things but don't expect to scratch your records on a phone. Who the hell is mixing a song on their phone? No Professional !!! haha What has the world come to? You see someone mixing a song on the bus, head bangin' - pissed off cause he isn't getting the beat right cause his **** ain't tight - well no, DUH you mixing on a PHONE lol

Calendar 'dialogs'?
You know you can enable those white "bubble windows" that pop up on receipt of new SMS messages etc. I'm *sure* years and years ago when I first used Window Mobile that calendar reminders popped up in similar bubbles.
How do I enable them? At the moment all I get is my alarm goes off, which just leaves an alarm icon in the top menu bar for me to click on, but I want the brief details to appear in a bubble - is there a reg setting for this?

Doesnt the Diamond have an LED?
Hello!
I bought my Diamond yesterday *yay*...
I wonder, that small transparent piece of plastic built into to the earpiece. Is that an LED?
If yes, mine doesn' t blink or anything. Should it? And if yes, when?
I had an HTC Wizard before which blinked green when I had signal and orange when charging or a message received.

..i wish our htc's would have such a software!!!
Every battarie will be loaded in the same way; there is no software which controls the voltage based on the battarie!!

I posted my share of stupidity. I believe we all did.
But I agree it comes to a point where its to much!
What about banning the word fagphone?? (iPhone) thats were my support is!

I was scheptical so i reserved myself to the idea that we should really make a harmless joke app that shows you the batt is charging. Then see how many people download it.
Also could you guys tell me how to modify the registry so my phone heats up more because want to put it in my cofee every morning.

is it possible to install xp (sp2 or sp3) on htc diamond??
storage(4gb) is enough for install xp so maybe it is posiblle?
probably i will need some other boot loader??

No, it only supports Windows 3.11 for Workgroups for now...

Is this the game? Because last I checked, this wasn't freeware ($9.99 in the Marketplace).
Besides, sounds like the OP already has the game and is having the same problem a lot of other people are with VGA screens. In the game, the right section of the screen is cut off so that you can't access the menu or action buttons (fortunately the hardware button acts as an action button, but still no menu).

Last I checked, using custom ROMs wasn't illegal, or against the XDA board rules, unlike posting warez cabs.

Has Anyone Gotten Zenonia to Behave?
I LOVE what I have been able to play of Zenonia, but the missing right half of the screen makes it un-playable, particularly due to the lack of the "back" button to get out of "dialog" boxes, like in the Blacksmith shop.
The "stats" update screen can be exited by going to the system tab (the "envelope" icon), going to the main screen, and then selecting "Continue Game". Getting out of the other screens is not so easy.

Please take your backseat moderating somewhere else. I was using what we call "sarcasm". And clearly, the other part of my post did hold value: asking yajinni to clarify what he/she was saying. Thanks
To my point, I was asking yajinni to clarify for others who have tried this in NYC, I couldn't care less about NYC. But if the poster doesn't clarify what they meant, others testing in the area will not know what to appropriately respond to him/her with. Also, reading yajinni's previous post, it is clear he/she speaks English perfectly fine. So I felt like joking with their obvious typo, and then asking them "seriously" to clarify.
So, would you like a worth while post from me? Fine. I am in Tampa, and can confirm that the 3d models work in Tampa. The 3d models only show up in map mode. In satellite layer on, only tilt, no models. Again, this is in TAMPA, I have not had a chance to search every city supporting 3d models.

Good for you. I'm glad this accomplished something of great value. Nitpicking on another user you don't know about will leave a HUGE impact. I'm sure they will take it into their heart. They will also never forgot you and will thank you forever.

the way to make it work is to wait til gps finds you then hit the target button beside the layers button. hit it twice and it should automatically tilt a little bit and follow the way your facing. also we dont have the ability use the multi touch tilt and turn sadly. our device doesnt support it according to google but brut is making some headway in the g1 android development section so keep your eyes out there! we might end up having all of the features that google says we cant.
as for actual 3d tilt its only in certain areas as stated above. a way to verify its actually working scroll over to san diegp california after you hit the target twice and you should see buildings in 3d and if you do there and not your city then that means your city isnt supported yet

Hm sorry for the bad typing. was on my phone and it was late. But i meant is i DID IT with new york city.
