Wondering why people asking stupid questions
Wondering why people cant search the forms/google
- is a forum like a wiki Page?
- is a forum like "one for all", "all for non"
- is a forum static or interactive?
I have seen so many flames, RTFM, you "NOOB" read the thread etc
and then people responding to that and so on and on...
And way, believe me it will be a lost cause, new noobs will come and go.
what will seem as a really stupid question for you, can be a hard one to the poster, eg.
I was wondering wtf is CMDA, that we dont have in The Netherlands as in Europe.
So let me google that for you is always a nice reply.
I have bin on XDA a lot, i have bin reading a lot, i know howto google.
but still...
We all need to understand that vinding what you are looking for can be very hard, or impossible, if you dont know where to look or how it is called.
Off course, if some idiot tell a chief that he dos not like his ROM, and will flash a other ROM a flame is in place.
But if a question is about eg, email settings in a thread of a ROM, pls don't replay, unless you can point to a solution or a other topic that will help the person.
\So my 2 cents about this is;
- you cant blame the person, he/she simply don't know better.
- there are so many that cant read (or read English)
- it is a mission impossible to educate ever single one off them, there will be others and or new comers.
- etc
Don't replay, unless you can point to a solution or a other topic that will help the person.
I made this tread so i can link to it in my Signature:
I'll update if I/we need to

Now being a member of the XDA forum for several Months and reading thousands of threads, I have seen a wide variety of signatures and avatars.
I look at mine as my alter identity as a Pocket PC Geek (as my wife would call it). My signature just has the basic ppc status and the apps I use. My current avatar would reflect that as well. I’ve come across some signatures that are a half page long and say nothing and some with a few words that tell it all and a whole lot of interesting avatars.
So how much do they reflect who you are? Tell us your story…
my avatar - HAL - is the king of all computers of course...
and signature...aeeehm....yes, i'm addicted to Guinness also...
Something to keep in mind about signatures, is that they can be searched on. So, if someone puts Tom Tom in their sig, a search for "Tom Tom" will turn up every post that person made, and not just posts related to TT.
In other words, it can dilute the power of the forum search tool.
Try searching for "U.S.A. - AT&T Wireless" (without the quotes) and you'll see what I mean. That's in mchapman007's sig.

Brian, a little friendly advice here...
You have seriously become what is known as a "Serial Threader". Follow the links in my Signature, read them and understand them. Then come back and be a good forum citizen.
First, you need to post in the proper subforum. Questions about flashing DO NOT belong in the General subforum, they belong in the upgrading subforum.
Next, you need to post your questions in the correct threads (i.e. for the Rom you are using or in a thread that asks the same thing).
Then only time you should create a NEW thread is when there are no existing threads where your question fits. None of your threads fits this requirement.
Finally, be patient. Nobody at XDA-Devs is paid for their time, yes even the Moderation Team is entirely volunteer.
Take to heart the fact that XDA-Devs is just as much about the journey as it is the destination. If you don't care for the how but only want the bling then this is not the right place for you.
Thanks,
Hi guys,
I am new to the forum but ready to learn everything about how to change my At&T Tilt (unlocked using it in India) to something new.
Can one of you mind sharing the knowledge and teaching me how to turn my tilt screen into more like HTC touch diamond (i really like the weather application).
as i said, i have no clue how to go about it.
thanks in advance.
regards

Sure not a problem, infact we knew that you would be dropping by today so we wrote up some instructions (these have been tested on a blonde girl no doubt) and got them posted for you. We were a little worried that you might not make it..
Just look in the wiki or sticky and read them until everything makes sense.

Maybe we should put an audio file that comes on when you open this forum up, telling you to read the sticky before posting. Oh and make it sound like HAL
ChumleyEX for chairman Got my Vote!
WELCOME TO XDA-DEVELOPERS
CHUMLEYEX, CHAIRMAN NOOB WELCOMING COMMITTEE
(I'm the one in the red, with fan)
AHAHAHAHAHAHA!
Sure thing. Go to e-bay and buy a Touch Diamond.
Thanks from the NOOB
Hey Thanks guys,
No offence taken..
SUGESTION : Why don't XDA Developers divide the forums in subforums like "FOR GSM" and "FOR CDMA"?. I have a very hard time looking for Sprint CDMA information and have to go to tons of GSM Which is usless to me and time consuming.
Moved to Q&A, as its a Question. Please post in the appropriate section.
Otherwise I have to wade through tons of posts that are in the wrong section.
You would need to PM a Forum Administrator to request that, or post it here --> [Requests] Ask for new forums here
A wifi forum would be nice too.
They were dividing them, but due to something we don't know, they made it one forum for boths, asking the devs to tag [ CDMA ] or [GSM] into their title so ppl can recognize which thread this for, that is why you have to read the thread title
If isn't showing [CDMA or anything you look for] then this thread is not for ya,

Creating a CDMA sub-forum isnt going to make CDMA roms magically appear.
Use search and search thread titles for , hmmm "CDMA", simple.
Forums were split before but it created more problems then it solved. I very much doubt it will happen again.
If you want CDMA titles use search.

True- but it would be much harder to ignore the galaxy tab wifi if it were less of a footnote *sighs*
I am so utterly never buying anything from samsung again in my life.
Hi guys!
I'm asking here because don't have any idea where to find answer of my question. Officials didn't respond.
Could you tell me please, if the medical students of the 6th year write the diploma theses in Portugal? If yes, must they to write them or it's optional, and how theses affect the future choise of speciality?
I'm asking because I wish to continue my postuniversity specialization in Portugal, but have a diploma work to make in my country (we are obliged to write them). So I'm confused about area of research in my these, because I should know about influence of my these on the future specialization choise.
Sorry for my english, I hope you have understood me.
It would be great if you ask your friends from medicine, and much better if here will be any of them.
Thank you very much!
Hope someone will help me.
I know this is off topic, but I highly doubt you'll find an answer here. Why not find a Portuguese forum and ask there?
