Since I am bored beyond wits, and was inspired by WPBears quotes at the end of his signature, I would like to hear the stupidest, most outlandish, jaw dropping, 'How could you be THAT stupid' questions you have ever read, answered, or posted on XDA...
mine isn't great, but it would have to be..
'If I SIM unlock my wizard, can I switch over to Sprint?'
i'd answered too many posts not to have to surpress most of the silly ones
but vaguely recall people asking for how to do tasks which were clearly something one just clicked on of the things present on the normal today screen menu
Hmmm... I'm sort of loathe to get involved because I'll probably find somebody's choice for stupid question is one of mine...
Al the same, it's got to be the person on the folowing thread I guess.
It wasn't the content of the question, it was that he followed this opening comment:

Thanks for the edit, Mike. Genuinely meant to just retype myself the last bit, not actually use Quote function with name on, when I began that. My ineptitude knows no bounds...
Took the link off now too.
And I DO still expect to find one my own posts being quoted here.
i heard somewhere.... you can make contact pictures bigger when they call or you call.. anyone hacced it yet.. or anyone know how to do so..please let me know..
thank you...
come again!!!
That would be cool, but I believe this belongs more in the q&a section. I will still continue to follow this topic for a possible resolution.
**** it can go anywhere i just wanna know lol..
i too would be interested in this..

Hi there!
I suggest you read the Forum Rules, Link In My Signature.
If you keep this, I can post anywhere attitude up, people won't want to help you.
Also, Moved to Q&A.
but i think u put the wrong EMOTION to what i meant..
when i said it can be anywhere i meant... i dont mind where its at.. i just wanted to know .. i dont have no attitude..its just a forum.. lol.. im not a forum bully!!..
but i digg what ya sayin just hope we can find a resolution!!
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

You should be banned from this forum for misleading topic creation, and being about the 500th person today for asking in the wrong forum. GO TO QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS! Because that's where you will get QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS!

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.

When he said he searched does he mean he, put the query in and just sit there hoping for results or did he actually press the Seach button

your title is completely misleading and your post is in the completely wrong section
please change the thread title (edit the original post and change the text in the smaller of the two boxes)
and beware the remnants of the wrecking crew - if they find this you will have 40 pages of nonsense in a few minutes

Locked and Deleted!

This Thread is distracting to the folks who are searching for useful information.
I agree that this "user" was wrongful in creating this thread in the wrong forum/sub-forum, but let it go.
XDA Ops need to do a little better job in tightening up security as well as cleaning up the forums and promoting more mods....
Thx to all Mods/Ops/Senior Users for all that you do to make it easier for the rest of us.

OP,
What you can do is provide us with some information, we cant help if we have no idea what setup you are running
Or you could try posting your question in the thread of the overclocked rom you are running.

no im not but i think its freaking great that it's getting ur panties all knotted
This should definitely be closed. The OP never replied, and this is way off track..
But.. If you DO come back to check this thread..
The only ROMs that I know of that work with an overclocking app would be
Fresh Toast v1.1
DarchDroid v2.5.1.2 (not sure about this one though)
or maybe DarchLegend OC5.06 (He hasn't updated in a little while though, so I assume he is working on something big. )
If you come back with some actual info OP, we could help you.. otherwise..
Either way, this thread should be moved.

Well a simple question obviously causes a lot of frustration in people. If it bothers you so much tell someone who can move it, otherwise move along.
Yes this question should have been posted elsewhere, but obviously this person is fairly new to this whole "phone modding" thing... and forums.
So we can either ***** about it like we were never so inept, or we can be adults and try and help them. (also keep in mind the forum structure just kinda flipped recently)
Back on topic, everyone else has asked the right questions, what ROM you are using (if any) will determine the right answer. You gotta meet us all half-way, but Jugsy seems to put the best answer to the vague question.
Any current ROM other than those will not work with overclocking apps.

I believe mine was an answer to a question in the Touch Diamond forum.
I believe mine was to ask about accessories.
I think mine was about making the white WM6 start menu black.

I was trying to find out why anybody would be interested in whether or not they sounded like a "noob" in their first post.
And at the risk of setting myself up, I'd have to say that I'm genuinely confused.
