noobs are all making the same mistake. they are using "search this thread" instead of "search" and afterward start complaining..maybe they are right, we should do something about it...

why so angry?
Instead of biting my head of and do something useful.. the problem i had was NOT on ANY of the forums, neiter under any other threads. Therefore I asked for help. Never mind now.. I found it out my self. take care and hope you all don't bite the head of someone in the future.

Stein, please understand, it's not a matter of solving the problem, but rather were is the right place to put the question.
If everyone start's build threads for each and single tiny problem, in a few time, nobody would be able to find anything here.
That is not good the users and not for you as well.
I hope you understood...
HastaSSSS

Seems like his searching skill still function normally . But his reading skills is a big failure, thats what keep him away from enlightenment
sometimes it's hard to search something when you don't know what's it called. When I first started I didn't know it was called a splash screen. It's also hard to do other searches if you don't know if that product exist and what's it called. it's easy for the seniors because they already know everything. just give some of the noobies a break. just point them in the right direction and be on your way instead of flaming. or just dont post if it bothers you so much. be nice, everyone was a noobie once.

HTC TYTNii Home Page V6

Anyone know how to make the weather read in English instead of Metric? Love the Home page, its way better than the AT&T. I included it here if someone else wants it, Just do a soft reset of your phone and then download this, its the latest version. ( To do the soft reset take your stylis and press it in the small hole to right of the battery charger connection, When it resets it will try to reload AT&T, when it says in 3 Secounds, press the reset again and you should be fine. There are alot of threads telling you how to do this, if Im not that clear than Google it. After you reset your phone you will loose ringtones and contacts saved to the phone and any caps you have added that arent saved to your memory card (if you have one). Just download the attachemnt open it and it will do the rest. Hope this helps. Now maybe someone can help me, if you know how to change the weather display from metric to english let me know.
Thanks

er... The metric system is in english.
Ok for those who r slow. In the US we prefer Fahreheit not Celsius. The difference is English to Metric. So if you dont know the answer save your time by not posting. No one wants to read about how u dont know the difference between the two.
2 posts in and he's already flaming!
Actually the term is Imperial, not English. So when Psionandy answered you he was correct. The english use the metric system,
Calm down a bit and please dont launch attacks on people like that. Then maybe you'll get the answer you require. even better try the search button at the top.
Bad attitudes simply get you ignored.

Why cat people just answer the question, obviously you know what Im talking about. Everyone wants to find something wrong in a question, Just answer it, if you can, if not dont reply, please!! Im trying to find the answer, and Ive already tried the search button at the top, or I wouldnt be posting this Duh! And as far as launching an attack, I dont know what u r talking about. Please dont reply to any of my post please.

Look at your 2nd post in this thread. Calling people out is not the thing to be done here.
Now be a good little boy and apologise for being rude. Then I'll tell you how to do it.

I cant believe I'm going to help an Uhhmerican out.. but :
Go to Start > Settings > System > Regional Settings and choose any country that uses "English Imperial".
(Which is pretty much no country on the planet, except for the righteous US of A, Liberia & Burma.)
And.. If you read the manual that came with your phone, as well as searching around before asking such a basic question, you'll piss off a lot less people than you already have.
Hey thanks for trying to help but that didnt fix it, it is already set on US and dosent even offer a change. Thanks for the help, Im not trying to piss anyone off, I simple posted a question and had all kinds of weird O's respond.

No Worries I think you threw everyone off by saying "English" instead of "Imperial"
Try this as well : Click on your city name in the forecast mode of weather panel (not just the first screen / todays weather) This should bring up the city select creen. On the bottom, click on menu, and choose weather options. You should be given the choice between deg C or F, and auto-update configs.
doesn't HTC Home Customizer do it?

Tap on the city name. When the city selector comes up, tap on "menu" and then "weather options." Select Fahrenheit from the resulting screen.
Thanks tlfromva that fixed it. Im sorry if I through all of yall off by saying English to Metric but when I googled it, that was in the response. Well yall have good day and thanks for all the help.

No need to call him an idiot. Point him in the right direction, then shake your head on the way out if you want. Everyone really needs to lose their holier than thou attitude. This is a forum, people ask questions that have already been answered, that's just the way it works. If everyone keeps treating everyone else like ****, no one is going to want to come to XDA anymore.

edited [i need help... my phone wont function normal] =(

I tried to go through most of the forum posts but I dont think I could find my answers..
I was wondering if anyone knows what is wrong with my phone. I did an update and now my phone wont work back to normal. All it shows up is the G1 words across a black screen and that is about it.
When I tried to do a reboot it wouldn't work, I can no longer connect my phone with my USB to the computer, so what other options do I have with this matter? I know my phone isn't a brick.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks and good night..
Jennifer

I thought this was more appropriate, since according to the OP he searched and couldn't find an answer anywhere on the forums, and this shows that there are in fact thousands of his exact question that have been answered. I like the shock and awe of 57,900 results.
