quick question to developers - G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

No matter how many times...
Why do Devs need to answer this plenty of us can answer this already, however I'll not due to you posting in the wrong section and KNOWING about it. I might have answered if you hadn't known, but...

damn you dont gotta be a douche... i didnt mean to piss anyone off. however i have asked this before in Q&A and got no answer. i just need someone experienced to give me an answer. the radio had been installed before, and i needed to flash death SPL for them. thats all......

Honestly, most of the time you have to wait 20 minutes till you get an answer in Q&A in my experience, just be patient and don't make un-necessary thread in a forum that's about development.
EDIT: He isn't being a douche, he's being a person who actually respects forum rules, it's like laws, but of course like in society we give you people second chances and refuse to flame too badly

leave it all blank

So I'm guessing if I don't get a response from a company I can just barge into an office and grab someone to talk to me about my problem?
Just let this thread close please.

malaeus said:
actually i posted the question in Q&A about 2 weeks ago and it got buried inside of 20mins. and all im asking is for a simple answer, i could have had it answered by now with the amount of nonpoint comments and trolls visiting this.

did it for you

Well it's pretty much your fault, as you should have known this would've happened on ANY forum.(unless it's some Religious Forum)
But, fine I'm feeling generous today. You only need to wipe and flash the Death SPL, not the radio as that could potentially brick the phone.
so basically
1.wipe phone
2.flash death spl
3.flash rom
Have fun breaking more forum rules, sorry mods for this thread.

malaeus said:
what kind of logic..... whatever this is just becoming troll bait.
if someone would have had the decency to answer my question to begin with and not flame all over the place like a bunch of immature morons, this would have been done already.
sorry for posting on your rag day, but just change your tampon and if you dont have the answer, dont clutter it with pointless posts....... talk about let it die, just let this get one good answer and the thing would have been deleted by now.

I only use iTampon's sorry. And the logic, since when is the internet logical?
Anyways, if you are absolutely SURE you have the radio, flash the spl.

I've been craving a thread to get wrecked...

malaeus said:
well you could have just as easily given me the answer i needed and mods would have erased this. if i had the ability to erase it myself i would. and if people would actually answer things in the Q&A section i would have gladly posted there. but its overfilled with idiotic questions that have been in the FAQ for years now. mine however has not been stated on the forum before. as i am experienced with forums and unlike many others here i know where the SEARCH button is.
but after searching through many separate forums as well as googling it, and still not receiving an answer, i figured posting this directly to someone in the direct developing community would give me the most experienced answer.
thank you for your time, and go douche somewhere else.

This is the problem. People ask the same questions over and over and it is extremely annoying to have to sort through all of the nonsense.This is impossible to solve since most of us are selfish and want what we want. The answer to your question is in the threads about upgrading the SPL.

malaeus said:
First things first, i know this should go in Q&A, however in my experience not many devs frequent that forum. so i would pose my question into the dev forum. MODS feel free to remove this thread after i have received an appropriate answer, thank you very much.
i have read all the wonderful posts about Hard SPL and haykuro's death SPL.
i have successfully made the transition to haykuro's death SPL myself, however. a friend of mine has a G1 as well, i have rooted their phone. and put the latest cyanogen mod on it. i have NOT updated the SPL for cyanogen (because it was optional, and they didnt want a chance of brick)
NOW they want me to try out a new mod for them on their phone. this new mod requires the death SPL, however they already have the LATEST radio 26I.
am i able to simply flash the new haykuro death spl like anything else? with no issues seeing as how the phone already has the latest radio (thanks to cyanogen build)?
i cant risk bricking his phone as i have no cash to replace it.

I don't wish to offend anyone here but, as a senior member you should have guessed this thread would annoy quite a few people. The fact that you're aware that this was posted in the wrong forum is probably worse.
This is the exact reason a QnA forum was made, to stop this forum getting cluttered with questions.

JF 1.5 (cupcake ) and MyFavs

Installed JF 1.5 (cupcake) and myfavs are gone. Is this normal as NOT part of the build?
I would like to get back if possible.
Also in the brouser auto-rotate was possible in JF 1.42 r33 and now its not working at all and landscape is not a feature under settings.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!
TIA
Please, please, please read and search the existing threads (in this case the JF 1.5 thread) rather than starting a new thread.
In general I favor creating a new thread when you have a specific question for anything, the exception being about about the custom ROMs. The convention here is to keep the ROM discussion to the ROM thread and it does cut down on the noise in the forums.
In this case both of your questions have been answered on JFs 1.5 thread (multiple times)

Sorry but I do have a life and I don't always the time to read thru 28 pages. If I have the time I do search and read!!! I'm sure you never started a thread with a question that has been already answered!!!
Anyways!!! Thanks for the links!!!
Might I humbly suggest if you do not have time to search and read then wait until you do have time? Everyone here (with the possible exception of myself) has lives as well and would just as soon not have to do others work for them.
It took me longer to type my post than it did to search and provide you the links. In the time it took you to do your posts you could have gotten the answers yourself.
And yes I have asked questions and had it pointed out to me that the question has been asked before and been provided a link to the answer. However I have never posted a question on a forum without first searching as thoroughly as possible. Never. Probably why I have to ask very few questions.
Regardless of how u feel I'm sure this thread will help others.
Again, Thanks for the links!!!

This is a process informally called "lurking", which could be better described as "doing your own goddamn work instead of making other people do it for you." Unfortunately with the widespread attention xda has gotten lately, the ratio of the lazy to the productive has risen significantly.
OP: You don't have a right to run JF software (i.e. it is provided as-is), nor is anyone obligated to provide you troubleshooting. If you don't have the time to read through the sticky threads, then like JP said you should find the time or learn how to better use the search function.
This thread had the opposite effect of helping me... it falsely got up my hopes that the MyFaves app is available, which I previously believed it to not be, having read the rom threads....

I as well thought someone added myfaves.apk to jf1.5 and re-signed it.
The JF cupcake 1.5 is an ADP version, which by default doesnt include myFaves. You can always wait for another update.
Hope that helps
You know what's even more annoying than someone not searching? ...
People who act like forum police/moderators and jump on the posters back with rude comments and a holier than thou attitude.
Instead of writing paragraphs about how YOU would post- maybe you should either not write anything at all, or, gasp, be curteous and friendly- help someone out, then kindly point out the search function if necessary.
What a concept.
Yeah, some of these threads get up to 200+ pages, with thousands of posts along with it, even a search will bring up a lot of posts. Not all of us have the time (as we work, or go to school, or have lives outside of the internet) to sit down and read through all of them. So it would be easier to answer the OP's question, and just end it there, then to tell him to search and complain like your on hormone pills, haha
But back to the OP question, any T-mobile apps will not be present in an ADP build. We just have to wait until someone gets a hold of the T-mobile build. So until then, just flash back to RC33 if you need myfaves.
You can auto rotate the browser (although other apps will use this function as well) by going to:
SETTINGS > SOUND & DISPLAY
then under "Display settings" make sure "Orientation" is checked, then your browser will rotate.

Option A: Everyone who has a problem spends the time to read the entire sticky post, not only solving their problem but also learning in the process.
Option B: Everyone who has a problem posts the same goddamn question over and over again on these forums. The real developers and hackers get sick of it and leave xda-dev.

I just answered the OP's question, so the thread should have no further discussion unless he has more questions. All questions can not be answered with the information found in the sticky threads, so there are people like me, and many other people in these forums who are more than willing to help out another person trying get things running smoothly. If you don't have anything positive to say to the OP and get them going in the right direction, just let other people help.

Silly of me to think that WE ARE ALL HERE to help each other instead of acting like we are the sh!t and know-it-all's!! Ever try to read 5 pages of a thread using your G1 let alone 20+
Remember where you came from and how it felt not to know things and how it felt to be overwhelmed by all this info and how to apply it. Maybe then you will NOT act like a-holes.
I vote we all complain that proprietary, crappy T-Mobile software don't exist on NON T-Mobile builds of Android. You know, the way it's been since ADP phones were released in 2008. Oh yeah, and we all need to keep acting surprised when they continually don't show up in ADP builds. I think that's best for everyone.

Sorry, you're completely right: There's no point to having stickied threads or search buttons. Everyone should just start a new thread whenever they have a question, regardless of how many times that question has already been asked. Catering to the newbies who are too lazy to use forum tools and letting them overrun the forum is the best thing for the forum. I have seen the light!
postscript: sorry for bumping this failure of a thread, but newbie spam like this is choking out the real purpose this forum and I feel like unless someone takes a stand, [email protected] is going to lose relevance (assuming it hasn't already).
I was kind of hoping this thread would just die away once it left the front page but since it is back...

We are here to help each other. The first step in that is following, or at least considering, the rules set forth on the forums. They are here to help make the forum better. The first 2 are:
1) Search first
2) Be polite
Call me a know it all if you like. It does not change the fact that I am gently (and politely) trying to get you to do what is helpful to everyone on the forums. The vast majority of users here can follow these rules, why not you? I have not called you any names nor denigrated you in any fashion. I am simply asking you to be considerate to other forum users and mindful of the rules. By posting threads like this you generate noise in the forums that makes it harder to find new/original content. This is not an end user forum but one dedicated to technical users capable of researching answers.

No need to read 20+ pages, “search this thread” works just fine on the G1. It is easier than posting as a matter of fact since you do not need to login and requires less typing.
Remeber YOU DONT HAVE TO REPLY, period!! No matter how you feel, YOU DONT HAVE TO REPLY.
In case you cant read, YOU DONT HAVE TO REPLY.
Spanish: usted no tiene que responder
German: Sie haben keine Antwort
French: vous n'avez pas de réponse
Italian: Non si hanno per rispondere
You are NOT obligated/required to reply to anyones thread.
If you want to help then do so, if you dont then dont.
Again THANKS for the links!!!
Now please be a grown up and let this die I already got my answer
While it is sometimes said in an off-putting manner, the forum rules clearly state that you are required to search for the answer to your question prior to creating a new thread. If a search does yield the answer(s) you seek, then find an existing thread related to your problem.
For example: There are several active threads related to Cupcake, so you could have posted in one of those, as opposed to creating a new thread.
Thank you for your understanding. Thread closed.

[Q] How do I do a Nandroid restore?

So I think I'm doing something wrong.
I made a Nandroid backup in Recovery mode, and thankfully I did because I tried flashing a theme and I got boot loop. So I went back into recovery mode, went to Backup/Restore, Restore Nandroid, and selected the latest backup I made. It goes through the process of restoring (with the flashing dots at the bottom) and says "Restore Complete". I then hit back, and select Reboot Now.
Then it hits the fan. I get stuck at the green "HTC" screen. Nothing happens at all. I let it sit for half an hour and nothing. Am I missing something or doing something wrong? I don't know what to do any help would be really appreciated! Thanks everyone.
Brian
Try doing a full wipe from recovery and then restoring. If that doesn't work then you will probably have to reflash your rom and redownload your apps. BTW this should be in Q&A. Hope this helps!
Hah, that did it! Thank you very much for the quick reply greatly appreciated!

calm down. just report the thread as in the wrong section. we were all noobs at some point and there's no sense in getting angry at people who don't do things 'exactly right' according to your standards. Chillax breh.
Look dude, they guy asked a simple question and I provided a simple answer. To be honest, you've been flaming every single person that posts in the wrong forum, not to mention you are being rude about it too. You haven't contributed anything but negative comments. I'm here to help in any way that I can, even if my help is being put towards topics in the incorrect sub-forum.
To the OP, the only thing you've done wrong is misinterpret what "Development" means. Please post in Q&A or general so this jerk will leave everyone alone.
</RANT>
I admit yes im flaming people lately because im tired of people not paying attention to the rules or even bother searching the forums(like this person). This is a very basic and known question if they would have just searched.
I dont care if they are new or not if they didnt see the HUGE STICKY THREAD saying dont post questions in this section, then something is wrong, either they need glasses or they are just plain stupid. i would be more then willing to contribute if the thread is posted in the correct section and if they had bothered to even search beforehand(which its obvious this person did not).
Questions belong in the Q&A section not in development. you guys can call me a **** or watever but im just tired of going to the development to see multiple questions of the same crap. If they bothered looking or searching also i wouldnt be such a pain. Just cause you guys think im being mean doesnt make the forums become less cluttered up also. If you let 1 person make a Q&A thread saying oh its ok he is new then there will be 50 more threads of "NEW" people doing it. Im sorry but rules are rules.
MODS i apologize for being like this

[Q] [MOD] OVERCLOCKING to 825mhz !

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=djmwYSVxpQA
I read that the HTC Hero & Tmobile G1 all have the same processor. So why can we not overclock it like this?
I didnt think it could go that high at all
Sent from my HERO200 using XDA App
first off..youve been here for a few months now so you should know and post this in the right section(Q&A)!!!! seeing as you actually checked the box to show this was a question just shows that you didnt read the rules or even care about the STICKY telling to post in the right area.
Second..why not just be happy with 768? i dont think its possible atleast as we speak unless someone comes up with a kernel that allows it. I mean some hero's bootloop at 768 so what would make you think its possible at 825?

"So remember… before you start a thread in development, ask yourself what you are developing. If you can’t answer, then stop, step away from the post button, and think about where you are posting. Would it be better in General or Q&A, or is some more time with your best friend, search, required?"
plus questions about development go in either the rom thread, General, or Q&A.

I actually think it would be interesting to seed how blazing fast our Hero's can go and besides, not everyones phone boot loops at 768. I'm pretty sure some can go at 825.
and not to come off as an a$$ but I don't see the title of "moderator" underneath your screen name so you really have no say in were people can and cannot post. I understand I am no moderator as well but I don't think bbplaya4life should be chastised by you. Those are just my .02 and I'm not trying to make enemies but I'm just saying leave that job for the moderators
No hard feelings?
Congratulations, you can read the forum rules. Can you tell us, are there any rules about responding to posts like an arrogant douche bag. If there are than than sir you are as guilty as he is. If in your opinion it is in the wrong spot than state your opinion and move on, who made you a mod? Lord knows in two days this thread will be buried 6 pages into this section and you won't have to see it again. Otherwise it will be moved or deleted, but seriously I don't get what is wrong with people, if you don't have anything to contribute or you can't answer his question than leave it alone. And in the meantime, I'm not so sure it is possible to overclock that high on our devices. I'm sure if it could be than it probably would have been by this point, as amazing as the devs are that we have had working on the hero currently and in the past.

if you would have bothered actually reading that thread i posted you would see that in fact i dont need to be a mod. THE MODS have said quit posting questions in the development section unless you are developing something and use freakin common sense. Sorry Impaler but like i said before recently this development forum is getting flooded with threads that should be located somewhere else. letting one person get away with it has allowed everyone to just randomly post where they like and its getting outta control.
As far as flaming in the thread yes i am to breaking rules. I admit im being hypocritical when i say read the rules. Think about this tho, there is a huge thread above this section that says post threads in the right section.
Sorry again to everyone who's feathers i have ruffled but Please try and post in the right sections.
Sorry for flaming!
If anyone really wants, I'll put out a Decad3nce Uncapped Kernel that allows for 825MHz. Be warned though that I take no responsibility for any damages that occur.
I've heard from someone that Zen said that our Hero's CAN be clocked well over into 900 mhz, (or it has been done) but it's pointless since our phones wouldn't really be able to handle that speed. Plus, the only thing (in my opinion) it would be good for is a pretty Quadrant Score.

Unstable even if you wanted it. And for clarfication:
The HTC Hero(GSM) and G1 share the same cpu(MSM7200A) while we have the MSM7600(CDMA version, same as Eris) which is >= rev 2 and is much improved.
Here's more info on our chipset: http://www.datasheetpro.com/268121_download_MSM7600_datasheet.html

Is this developement related or should this be in the QA section? I do think it belongs in the QA section. Next time post in the correct section or post will get reported as spam lol
1. Search dude. This is one of the most obvious questions I've ever seen asked here.
2. Read around the forums before posting, that goes hand-in-hand with searching...
3. Post in the right friggin' section. You have a [Q] in your tread title which means it's a question, which is fine, but its not a "Captivate Android Development" question! It belongs in the Question and Answer section. (which is amazingly obvious, it's not like they hide it from you around here)
4. The answer to your question is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=731989 which you didn't even need to search to find, its on the first page of the Development section which I know you looked in because you posted here.
*sigh*
The kid has two posts total. He is obviously new to the forums. So stop just repeating what everyone says. He doesn't need four people to tell him its a question and should be in the Q&A section. Don't act like its outrageous for a beginner to do something like ask a question in the development section, LIKE OMFG JESUS!! Sick of the clutter from all the questions yea, but also sick of reading all the bash posts towards people that are fresh to the forums. You were once a noob too!

No, we shouldn't. Threads like these impair actual threads that get pushed to page two.

I have to agree with this 100%. When I first started I didn't even realize I could search the forums or threads. Instead of someone pointing out to me there was search and explain how it works I was unbelievably verbally beaten to a bloody pulp about what an idiot I was. Even today I was taken to task for a post that cites a measure of rom's performance instead of the accepted evaluations we see day in and day out-fantastic, great, best, unbelievably fast. To me the true evaluation of a rom has to be functionality and some measure. If you do not think Quadrant scores, net speed tests and Lin pack scores measure performance tell me what does. I understand e mail works, videos play, I can make phone calls etc. That tells me how the rom functions. How do you measure a rom's performance other than to say fantastic, great, good etc.? Tell me.
All the "this is in the wrong forum, dude" posts are not about development either, so you're all off topic.
Spend less time bashing, and more time helping the new forum members.
The internet doesn't need more assholes, just more manners and good examples.
AoN
So just because someone is new to the forums we give them some leeway because they can't READ? Seriously guys it doesn't matter how new you are, if you have a question, put it in the Question and Answers thread. Almost every website has a search function, they aren't hard to find, so that excuse of "I didn't know" is pretty bogus.

this.
just because they are new we are supposed to let them fill the wrong forums up with clutter that they could have easily found by a simple browse around or search?
no.
thats not how it should be handled.
gimme gimme gimme! just doesnt sit well with me.
How hard is it for a moderator to do their job and move the thread to Q & A or to delete it?? If they did you guys would have no argument that it "pushes" the other threads to page two. I still don't get it......Seems to me like ppl are making a big deal out of nothing.

when you are reading these forums every day trying to see whats going on in the dev world, all you see on the front page are [Q] threads, posted in the wrong section. then we have to filter out all the BS and try to find useful info, when it should be right there, easily accessible, which is the point of breaking up the sections of the forums....
it's clutter
and the mods do a good job of moving them, but the n00bs come in here and post the BS so fast, its impossible to keep up.

HTC Hero root with unrevoked?

First of all, I am SORRY if these questions have been asked before, but I can't find them.
I have 1successfully rooted my EVO with unrevoked. Now my brother wants me to do his Sprint HTC Hero
Here are my questions.
I see that there is an download, but his radio is 2.42.02.10.29 and this is not listed. Is this an issue?
Is there a downside to having to use this unrevoked forever?
All that he wants is to do is get a bigger SD card so that he can move his apps off his phone and put more on his SD card. Is this possible? Even without rooting?
Thanks
This should be in q&a not in development.
Mods please place in correct thread. Also if you go to unrevoked's website I'm sure you will find more info there to address your concerns regarding the radio. Also try google searching it should have more than enough info to help you out as well. I've never used that method of rooting but I'm sure you will receive better responses if you post your questions in the proper thread.
#Root/Hack-Mod_Always*
I have tried google and I have gone to the Unrevoked website before I came here. I have not found the answers to my question, that is why I came here. If you had directed me to the proper thread (as you suggested) maybe my problem would be solved.
You are a senor member and I am new here. Remember we come here for help, not condescending responses.
Of course he can get a new sd card, but moving apps to sd requires root... As for the root, the method your talking about only works with the .29 radio, so to get s off you would need to downgrade the radio to .27 using RUU and then root, if you want.
Edit: you can then upgrade the radio after you s off unrevoke it. Theres a flashable .29.
Edit 2: there are much simpler root methods, I created a thread full of links, click my name and check it out.
Edit 3: damn laie, you gettin cold bro...
Puzzled how so??? Never used the mod so I can't give advice. So I suggested the next best thing. But I know your on xda as much if not more than I so I knew you would lend a hand. But until you did he might have found the answer to his question on the website or threw google. And he did post his question in the development thread not q&a I just asked the mods to move it to the right thread so he would receive better help. Don't think that's mean at all. By the way how did you like my name suggestion???
#Root/Hack-Mod_Always*
Well mostly I was just messing with you. I have done the same thing, told a mod to move the thread (by using the report feature) and then left a slightly more mean response lol. The only difference is the mod pmed me. He told me to just answer the question, report the thread, etc. No big deal, really I was just messing. Are you thickening your skin for the idiocy in the 3D forum? I am

Man yes lol. I had read your post on them so I had hopped over and read a little and all I can think is wow that's gonna be mind numbing lol. A ya never replied on the name???
#Root/Hack-Mod_Always*
Since this thread has gotten WAY off topic, I would like to THANK the people that have tried to help me and answer my questions, both publicly, (Il duce), and privately.
You guys rock. Thanks for the kind words and letting me know that not everyone on here is an *******.
I think people get a little too high and mighty on this site and forget it is a FORUM that people come to for HELP.
Recommendations such as being referred to google, and telling me what I am doing incorrectly without giving advice, like mean, rude people in general, well simply SUCK.
Thanks again to the good guys. We rule!
Dude if you post in the wrong forum some one here will tell you. You posted in the development froum. Your question clearly had nothing to do with development. Thats why its a q&a thread to post a question and to receive an answer. And if your modifying your phone google is your best friend. This is good advice. Had you had posted your question in q&a there would have been nothing to post about what you did wrong. And as far as being referred to google everything that duce or even myself would have told you would be on google. Its been many,many members who have had the same problems and most if not all have been solved. In my opinion in most cases google search is much quicker than reading threw thousands of post. In short glad you got it worked out.

This is the forum where I posted:
HTC Hero - CDMA Hero CDMA - Q&A HTC- Hero root with unrevoked?
Just for my own edification...
Please tell me where this refers to a DEVELOPMENT forum (whatever that means) and why the Q&A section on the title of this forum is not a place where I can ask a question?
The first thing I did was apologized if I was doing this wrong.
I tried to start all over again and I still ended up at this forum.
How would I know it was not the right one?
what on earth are you talking about

Dude, I came her for help...what on earth are YOU talking about..how does this nonsense about listening and you resisting help anyone at all? Why are you commenting on my thread and not helping?
Please..if you are going to say something..say something that helps me and anyone else with the same problem.
mike, you originally posted in develpment. It was moved to Q&A leaving no traces in development. so when you looked after the fact you were already moved....make sense?
