I think you need to add things like:
If you want a stable Android 1.6, Then you will want myns warm donut
If you want a stable Android 2.1, Then you will want mssmison's eclair
ect....
Say what things like crobs tutorial is (nand install instructions)
lay it out nicer instead of it being in a paragraph. Put things in one line format. ect..
But this will get lost in the sauce without a sticky.

but edit wont bring it back to the top im just trying to help clean this place up a bit cause people keep asking the same questions over and over and then they get an attitude about it when you kindly ask them to search.
I'm entertained by your response, and here's why. You say you kindly ask people, but I'm failing to see that anywhere. Let me illustrate:

In both these examples, I don't see the word please, thank you, or even a question mark. You're not asking, you are presuming people are ignorant and rudely telling them to do something they may have already done, without bringing them any closer to a solution. That's why people get upset.
If finding every answer is as simple for you as you imply, you should either help them find an answer or do not contribute.

discussion over. let this thread either get deleted or pushed back. im just gonna let the forum get overun with the same questions. i dont even care anymore
not the attitude to have, I been here and there on these android threads for a long time now. It would be great if you get this stickied but all of these references have been referenced oh so many times already, It doesn't matter how many times threads like this get posted people are naturally lazy and don't know how to do things for themselves its a trait you have to teach yourself when you are very very young These people are not going to search or read they are going to go for the easy out and just ask all the meanwhile pissing everyone off. I say just go about what you do and ignore the same old same old, let them learn, some lessons need learned the hard way.

Very new to root and roms. I upgraded to 4.0.1 very soon after having 3.6.8.1.
What are some of the neat things you can do? What settings have you changed? I JUST found out that there was another keyboard other than the android touch.
I did not know where this was appropriate and did not want to junk up cyans rom thread. Hope this is okay and apologies if its not. Just want to know what other cool features I am missing out on, and to also see what settings people roll with.

Best way to get the whole story is to compare the changelog of 3.6.8.1 to 4.0.1 which is available in their respective threads. One thing that was cool was the global search function from donut but that go reverted in 4.0.1. It will probably make an appearance in the 4.x.x experimental series however.....
I should clarify, I did not have 3.6.8.1 long enough to find all the easter eggs either. What settings do you change or things do you use after flashing his rom?

Hey DirectMatrix is this going to be another thread like yesterday.
yeah i'd also like to know.. im also new to the art of the root.. i also have my own questions
i know the myfaves app doesnt work, in fact doesnt even appear lol, but the actual myfaves service still works right?
and do the im apps work? im talking about the native one. it doesnt seem to be working for me =/
also, i want my settings optimized for overall speed.. what do you guys use for this?

You don't want the mygayes app on your phone anyways, its just a hog. It still does work, if you need to set it up just go to your online account and do it.
What native im app are you talking about, its been to long since I had the factory rom installed. But I can vouch for aim and googletalk do work.
If you are on Cyanogens rom everything should be optimized to full speed.
yeah i never used the myfaves thing to begin with, thats why when i heard its gone if you root, i didnt really care lol. plus i was already planning on getting rid of the whole service anyway. but thanks!
im talking about the one that comes with the phone. has aim, msn, and yahoo. i try logging but it just endlessly keeps saying "signing in..". im not sure if i just have to wait, or if its not working.
awesome!

Direct and Supreme... you guys aren't really helping, so why post? I'm not asking how to root.... i've read the release notes.... I'm not asking anything I think is silly. I just want to know what settings you guys change and if there are any things you find particularly cool with his rom. I am embarrassed I just found out how to use the keyboard, so I guess you can pick on that... but please, do it over PM and not here.

Point taken...my appologies...Supreme and I like to keep things lighthearted and have some fun. I'm sure I speak for him when I say we both apologize for offending you.
To answer your question....I was pretty much being completely serious about reading the change logs and comparing. That's where I get most of my info but as far as settings go, I second someone else's poste about the badass power widget. I also like the 5 homescreen options, the logcollector app is nice for troubleshooting, the fact that the buld.prop file has been changed slightly means that the new version of "My Account" runs properly without any futzing around, and playing around with the text app is fun because of the mms enhancements courtesy of rgv151.
Many of the other enhancements that make cyan's ROMs awesome are behind the scenes that just make it run faster (kernel tweaks, CPU scaling etc). These have no options available to the user, they just are part of the build that contribute to cyanoganized awesomeness.

Just like Direct said we ain't tryna make fun or nothing. We do help out alot, but after a long boring day of programming at work we got to do something fun to help pass time away. And hey we really didn't even joke around unlike the other thread. Best thing to do is just play around with the phone, try out all the apps, play with the settings, and just explore. Like Direct said alot of things are behind the scenes.

I figured it was close. I stay in Huntsville. And been thru there a couple times. Think we even had a car show in Franklin a couple years back.
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 think most people deserve it by now, to be kicked in the arse. Google is your FRIEND!!!
Very strange, and it was my first dream in a long time, let alone ever dreaming of a phone or software lol
so in my dream i had an in-person discussion with NilsP about his ROM about how i think he should add the 5 latest apps to the transparent dropdown. No biggie, 10min convo
Now im warped a few days later and im at like a BBQ party, and i meet someone and start showing him my phone and a few ROMs i had on backup
I pull down the transparent dropdown and see some chrome looking skulls, with red glowy eyes ... 5 of them across the top of the dropdown where the apps would be!!
So i say wtf is this? Maybe i never really broke in NilsP's ROM and its just now initializing or something??
Now the phone reboots itself and its some chromed skull theme, and the 5 recent apps are in the dropdown!!
In my dream i was kicking myself trying to figure out how the hell this ROM all of a sudden had it! Or did NilsP find a way to hack into my phone and add the feature i begged him for??
Last thing i remember is being puzzled and stumped, then i woke up
stupid as hell, but thats it lol
go ahead, flame away haha

so in my dream i had an in-person discussion with NilsP about his ROM about how i think he should add the 5 latest apps to the transparent dropdown. No biggie, 10min convo
Now im warped a few days later and im at like a BBQ party, and i meet someone and start showing him my phone and a few ROMs i had on backup
I pull down the transparent dropdown and see some chrome looking skulls, with red glowy eyes ... 5 of them across the top of the dropdown where the apps would be!!
So i say wtf is this? Maybe i never really broke in NilsP's ROM and its just now initializing or something??
Now the phone reboots itself and its some chromed skull theme, and the 5 recent apps are in the dropdown!!
In my dream i was kicking myself trying to figure out how the hell this ROM all of a sudden had it! Or did NilsP find a way to hack into my phone and add the feature i begged him for??
Last thing i remember is being puzzled and stumped, then i woke up
stupid as hell, but thats it lol
go ahead, flame away haha

I'm curious, what possessed you to believe this was in any way related to android development and not general discussion??
I swear I was not in your dream and I did not touch your phone.

the dream was about DEVELOPERS and what they DEVELOP? Not exactly mainstream stuff, someone not rooted would have no idea what i was talking about

I disagree. This forum has been better and this guy knew not to post this here. Crack kills!
EDIT: You really pissed me off saying stupidity runs rampant on XDA. Take it back!

I think the moderation could use some work here. ROM threads inevitably devolve to the point of being useless.

Overground and the other mods do a good job here, for FREE! You volunteering to get criticized because of a few idiots?
EDIT: Let me search your posts to see what you've developed or improved, since you're posting in the development forum and criticizing.
EDIT2: I searched and found 7 threads. NONE of your posts volunteered crap to the community.

It's the truth. Just take a look at the number of off topic posts in this forum alone each day. There are the best devs on xda, but along with that comes some of the dumbest posts I've seen on any forum.

I usually ignore the dumb posts and the front page of this forum continually stays on topic about new gifts to the community. You take back that comment or we're done talking. You lumped a lot of people into that.
EDIT: LOL! I searched yours too. Found the nicest one was requesting a link to a kernel for MIUI. You really want to POST HERE? Seriously? You guys are really making me mad!

Grow a thicker skin. If your not one of the people posting these useless threads then it's not targeted towards you. You're looking in the wrong place if you want an apology.

Smooches babe! I've done a little bit to make things work better here. I'm sorry that I get pissed at ppl with negative comments that haven't. Want to hug it out?
I have searched and searched! I really want to learn this ROM thing, but I'm stuck!
Ok, I have rooted my Captivate using the One-Click. I have all my drivers installed. I have backed up with Titanium Backup. I downloaded the ROM I want to try. It is in my root folder on my internal sd card. I rebooted using the ROM Manager, and I get failed. I also see no option to reboot and untick the option for developer signature. I see Samsung Recovery Blah Blah Blah.......help. Please.
what is the error message?
do you know how many f$$$in error messages there are?
Just because im a f%%%in genius i know what the error you are having is.
im going to read your mind....

HAHAHA, I think Trusselo needs some decafe tonight.
Million bucks says it's the 3e.
This is the q a section. People generally come here when they don't know what they are "f%%%in" doing. And they are in the "f%%%in" right for doing so. Actually helping someone while being a "f%%%in" d%%k... Must feel real "f%%%in" cool huh... Brah
its frustrating when someone says " it gave me an error "
oh really? what error?
how can we help someone that cant help us help them?
or they say they searched but there was a sticky posted last week on this issue!
and yes i do enjoy being a ****! read the sig! oh right! reading...
thanks for your input though. it was helpful. more helpful than i was... or... wait...

I stand corrected... Forgot frustration was license to act like an ignorant child... My bad.. Brah.
Even tho he was really straigh forward with it, he did still help.. All you're doing is flaming. I suggest you stop right here
Looks like tru's back to 51% approval lol!

lol he's still at 52%.. Not the 1st time I see this guy posting about Trusselo's post. He already doesn't like him lol
If the way he was talking to someone looking for help is to be considered straight forward I see no reason to not consider the way I was talking to an ignorant child as being straight forward.
Again this its the q a section. It's to be expected that people don't know what they are doing here. That includes not really knowing how to use a forum. Just because we are typing doesn't mean we should be talking to people in ways that would probably result in a couple missing teeth in reality.

And how about playing smart and not follow him in what you say is being a ignorant child?
There was many other ways to let him know. You acted just the same as he did.
I'm not saying you're not right about a few things (like the Q&A part) but all you brought here is flaming when the OP was looking for help.
You could've just rephrase Trusselo if you felt it was really needed w/o bringing any kind of insulting/flaming.
Please concider this only as a friendly advice/post. I'm not looking for any kind of flaming and Mods have alot more things to deal with than this
Everyone, step away from your keyboards. Take a deep breath. Calm down. "serenity now!!!!"

Yes, I could have. And then he would have assumed the way he was talking to someone was perfectly acceptable. But no I did not act the same way he did, only used his own wonderful choice of words to point out how he was acting. Hell the kids even pming at this point. He is exactly what I said he was.
Edit: I do agree the situation could have been handled better on my part.
How bout this: wrongs were made. You're both sorry, shake virtual hands, move on, and try to get along in the future.
Thread closed. (that is if I were a mod)
I'm guys relax. Remember we all must treat others with the respect we would want them to show us.
We were all new to android at one time or another.
