Senior Moderator's - Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Can I get a Senior Moderator to check my signature and pm me this time to see if it is the right size before they go into my account and delete everything on my signature. This just happen and I think it is B.S. I would of fixed it myself with no problem. I love this site and my phone,but come on just do not go doing things without telling someone 1st

it's pretty damn obnoxious!
Otherwise, if its so hard to re-create, copy the html code for it into a word document so if a moderator makes it nicer for the rest of us to look at, you can easily re-create the obnoxiousness.

The point is they should of said something 1st before deleting my stuff

I adblocked it.

A signature this big is certainly not recommended, esp with 3 such big images, as it creates unnecessary distraction from actual topic.

When a signature takes up twice the space as the text in a post, there's a problem.
Signature= E-Peen?

Gunnyman has no e-peen.

If it was a single post, its understandable to tell u. When ur posts are in multiple places, it won't be right to put other users at discomfort till ur issue is sorted out.
They did what they need to do keeping the majority in mind.

text issue...

how come everytime i hit the d-pad left or right to go from one text to another in my inbox...the text starts out all the way down so i cant see the words and i have to hit the d-pad up in order to read it?
Are you joking? lol You could...search the forums?
I did, some of the threads i found all ended up in the problem fixing itself.
There are several more, but try these...

Then why not ask in one of those threads, rather than creating a new one, to spam us all with?

Uhh, I consider that a feature. It's called being able to easily navigate thru wemails & accounts without having to touch the tiny folder drop down when one handed.
It also switches between accounts if you're in the account main page.
BTW, until you have a tenth of the helpful posts & tools created & explained by Alex, I'd shut your F'ing Cannoli hole.

Oh I know what you're thinking, but you're absolutely wrong
Before signing on here, I've just finished 5 years as an IT Manager/ interim Director, where I built 3 datacenters. I've decided that 5 years was enough for me, and I'm now on sabbatical.
I've been with my fiancee for 7 years and I *CHOOSE* to spend my time helping others on this forum.
edit - That's the reason why I take no offense to your posts as everyone is in a different stage within their life and each of those stages has a completely different outlook. I also remember when I was 19 and living in NYC, and I probably would have responded just like you back then
Oh no! Now the tag team is here. You guys do realize your arguing with a kid right?
you also realize that this tread is being watched i guess what ? WE BAN CHILDREN TO! THAT IS if they misbehave
seriously calm down, or as you signature says;

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.

Hidden Programming Menu

I just got off the phone with support attempting to get my SMS working correctly and they had me go into a menu I had not seen anyone mention in here yet. This is a programming menu that you find on other android devices although I hadn't seen anyone find it for the droid X yet. Here is how to enter it-
##7764726
SPC password 000000
It was getting into a menu very similar to this on the Droid Incredible that enabled us to get Wifi Hotspot working without subscription.
Tinker away.
Anyone know what data call setting does?

No wonder there is zero development inspiration for this phone. The emo teenieboppers will just be unappreciative and immature and ruin the community anyhow, so why bother?

It's only an option to enable/disable cmas which has something to do with with emergency alerts.
There is also another menu to access which the number is listed below, which I found in another thread here in the DX forums, but it seems to have been abandoned(the thread I mean).

It's mainly the phone info and usage statistics, I see nothing for DUN settings in here either.

My implication was the inability to use search with 900+ posts under your belt. Instead just adding to the clutter of repetitive threads; which is unappreciative, immature, and ruin's the community.
Just because you don't see development, you again assume there is little inspiration... that's a little mind speaking.

Actually, since the entire Droid X forum here gets less hits than my personal website (which is unlisted, unadvertised and mostly for my friends and family), discouraging anyone from posting anything that might be additional or useful information is FAR more damaging to any community you might think you serve (FYI, "the community" is not considered "you and you alone" - despite what your parents may teach you).
If YOU (of course, that's what you are thinking of here) don't like it, hit the back button. If you need guidance in locating this tool in your browser, send me a PM and I will work through it with you since I am familiar with pretty much every major browser out there.

I know there is development, but not NEARLY as much as other phones released at the same time, and certainly the majority of it isn't discussed here. Gee, wonder why.
When you;
a) Figure out that you do not speak for any community or, in fact, comprise the majority opinion just because you think you do
and
b) Find the back button or the link located at the top of the page that takes you to the message list
THEN you can even begin to talk to me. Until then, let the discussion resume with the big people and you just stay quiet and let other people do all the work.
Thanks for your cooperation.

Get 10 posts. Gives you access to being able to post in the development/phone specific sub forums. It also gives you access to have signatures, post in the marketplace (where you sell phone and phone related things), post outside links, etc. Also, you may want to avoid this specific sub forum or just mainly DanWilson. He's dangerous and may get you banned/hack you. Also, people like it when you use the search feature at the top of the page instead of just posting in a sub forum. I'm not really against or for this. But many people get (VERY) angry. Sheesh. Have fun, and enjoy.
Yes I'm feeling helpful today OT.
How many post u need to allow new users to add links because i want to post a thread about fixing my phone and to explain carefully i need to add links? Im just asking.
10 posts should get you the ability for external links if i am correct.

Well, you'd wanna use some lube if it is your first time, because going bareback might hurt a little for both parties.
You'd also wanna ease it in a little before going full force.
I'd give you more advice but I see PDL here and he's probably more experienced, what with his marriage to Dan and all that.
Don't use this site. You're gonna brick your nice new phone, and by the time you get it to work again, a newer, better phone will have come out. Forget this site, go look at porn insread.

Google+ Question

Somebody I don't know said a bunch of crap about me publically on Google+, and tagged me in the posts. I know I can't untag myself from them, but unless they actually visit this guy's page, will followers of me on Google+ see these tagged posts?
It depends on who he posted them to. You can select to make anything you post totally public. Post a link and I'll see if I can see it for you.
Other than that, Google must surely give you a way of untagging yourself for this very reason. Get in touch with them and ask the question.
The post was totally public, and he has no connection to me through anyone following me.

Well, I have another Gmail account and I made a Google+ account there, followed myself with the original account, and the other account. I don't see that post on the new account following the one with the tagged posts. So I should be good, right?
It sounds like it. TBH, I doubt many people can say for sure as Google+ is so different to the Facebook that we're used to.
I think you've done the best thing you can to test it.

K good. So nobody else can see it unless they go to the guy's page. Which wouldn't happen because he lives 4000 miles away and has no connection to me. But there HAS to be a way to untag myself, but I've been looking for hours on this and all I'm seeing is untagging pics.

Like I said earlier, the only thing I can think of is to ask Google. You can't be the 1st person that's needed to do this.
They don't really have a support email I can contact for this type of thing. I sent feedback and posted something on their forums. I'm just worried about somebody seeing this crap. I muted the post, that's about as far as I can go.
