And of course its threads like these that causes the remarks.. I honestly don't see how you "looked". Though if I werent educated in Android, I probably would've posted without really looking, or searching, either.

There's no way you looked... that thread I linked you to was literally 5-6 threads down the page on which you posted! Next time just search and look before posting a new thread... chances are very high most questions have already been asked. That will save you the embarrassment of getting flamed, and yes it's deserved if you learn from it, and will cut down on clutter and the rash of pointless and/or repeat threads in our beloved forum.

[Q] How can I root and overclock?

new to the forum need help my sprint hero is 1.5 i want to root it and overclock but i do want to keep sprint tv and sprint nav thnx

Have u read up on the process of rooting.?
Sent from my HERO200 using XDA App

yes i did but all seemed geared at the 2.1 update so can i root or do i update to 2.1 then proceed

There are directions to root 1.5 and 2.1 everywhere here you just have to give some actual effort to look for them. I'd suggest going to geekfor.me and use the kitchen to autoroot it.
Why root 1.5 when your going to upgrade to 2.1 anyway? Why not just RUU to 2.1 and then root it?

OMG...what is going on...SEARCH! ALSO there is a Q&A section specifically for these problems. This is the ANDROID DEVELOPMENT section. Im not trying to be mean but please read the rules about posting before posting.
On a side note i would suggest using the universal 1 click or REGNAW's method.

dude chill at the moment i have no problem, n01un0 answered my question thnx anyway, i searched i preformed the steps and i think i'm rooted now i'm wanna try ZenHeroFX 2.1 Lite

I completely disagree. There are a mere 3 stickies in the Development forum, of which one clearly, in the title, says "Don't post questions here!" This was a question, which directly violates the rules. Not only that, it's the most basic question of all (how to get started) which is also answered in the stickies. Why should we make any effort to help the OP (and many others on these boards) when they obviously made no effort of their own?
If you don't agree with me and feel the "purpose" of XDA is to baby everyone, I'd encourage you to check out some of the other sections that still have some activity and mods who care. You will find them to be a drastically different experience.

I'm sorry but clearly he had to open the main cdma hero forum part. He SHOULD HAVE seen Q&A. Then decides to post in development. I'm not trying to be a prick I'm following The rule's. Like above..if he would of bothered of making an effort he would have seen the sticky saying don't post questions. I just feel when some blatantly makes no effort to search or follow rules they should not be handed something. And I did answer his question if u guys would have looked at my post.
Regaw sorry for spelling ur name wrong man..my apologies.

No problem man, simple mistake.
I do like the rules that are set here (with the stickies and such) but I do remember the feeling of just finding xda (which was my first forum experience) and how overwhelmed and confused I was. I did mess up in the beginning, with my posting, but I was never bashed. I know you guys weren't bashing him (well I hope not) but you have to realize that he won't make this mistake again, it was a simple mistake. I didn't even know what a "sticky" was when I joined in January haha.

Lol this is why you shouldnt be a computer before the 3rd cup of coffee, and only 4 hours of sleep. LMAO

Everyone cool your jets. you got rockets in your pockets? I see nothing wrong with what t12icky0 originally posted. He answered the questioned and suggested what everyone else would have suggested--searching & reading more.
I also have to agree. There are other forums obviously specifically for questions or general talk along with the sticky here saying that as well. I'm not bashing OP. It just never hurts to do your best searching for your answer, and if you come up short, post.
Also let's chill with the foul language.
Everyone have a great day. Thread closed.

That's clever, but if you didn't notice there is no answer to the OP's question on your Google search. Maybe that why he is asking here.

Maybe the OP did not bother to search on the net or on this forum before. Maybe that was more than a week ago and it changed since. Maybe the OP learned to search before opening a new thread. Maybe you're trolling. Maybe you're just supporting opening threads the subject of which are already discussed in detail on the same forum. Maybe you did not bother to see if there were threads about rooting v20* at the time this thread was opened.
A lot of maybes. So what?

Where's the fun in that? The question's been asked and answered on this very forum dozens of times. "Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach a man how to fish and you feed him for a lifetime".
BTW., ridicule is not an inappropriate answer to the ridiculous.

[Q] Do we have any wordaround with the Camera yet?

Hallo Guys,
Have any developer or group of them published any type of workaround with the Camera on Android CM9 (or Stock ICS) for this Touchpad?
Thanks

Don't you think there's gonna be some special announcement or thread once we get the cam and Michael working?
Don't you think that instead of being LAZY that it would serve you and the community better for you to do a search instead of posting a USELESS thread

You talk about a useless thread then post a useless answer.
This is a forum that's supposed to help not browbeat and insult posters. If you don't have something useful to post then DON'T POST! This is the q/a section, questions are going to be asked. If you don't like the question, or the way it was asked, ignore it.

cdzo72 said:
And forum rules dictate that you search before posting.... and last week alone there were five threads started by lazies such as yourself
So before you speak of the forum make sure you adhere to its rules

And who named you 'keeper of the forum rules'? Also 'lazies such as yourself '....? Really?? I mostly post to answer questions, apparently you don't read the forum as much as you should...
If you think there's been a breach of forum rules, report it to a Mod, don't take it on yourself to insult noobs. Talking about rules, did you skip over the one about making rude and insulting posts?

Sorry for posting useless posts, I searched well in the rules before asking, and searched a lot in Google and other places...

Thanks for your reply, it was a little hard on him, the man got a point, this is a stupid question, but I really didn't knew that this issue is a huge issue that everybody is working on...

patience is a virtue some people here have yet to receive, cuz they clearly can't figure it out themselves
camera and mic really depend on drivers for the touchpad being released/leaked/found.....and if we know what they are then we can find those drivers.
There is a project regarding this at rootzwiki but its kind of a "stop-start" routine.
Dalingrin, the dev who came up with android on the touchpad pretty much has said that it'll be a very long to impossible time for those two to be working on the touchpad, but hey you never know we might get lucky

Very helpful answer, thanks a lot

Thank you very much for your answer, it helped me a lot, because I got some ppl who work with hardware development and would love to try, but they don't want to start from zero...
I contacted the guy "Faux123", the person who develope a very stronge Android Kernels that last longer and overclock, but he replied me with no time...
I will contact that guy and try to get some info from him.
If you know the URL of that specific thread/git/doc please share it with me here.
Thanks a have good night for you all

[Q] Noob alert

Hi guys/girls, I just got an Xperia SP yesterday. Although I'm reasonably tech savvy, these days I'm not to clever. Just introducing myself really and hope to learn from the forum. I will endeavour to research as much as I can myself, however I'm on a few other forums ( none phone ) and have always found people very helpful. Thanks in advance ..... Mikey

Ok so any questions about the phone? Had to stop visiting Sony forums as I can't stand the continuous complains:crying: XDA is not just for developers but also in general for people who want to learn.
Just a few basics:
1. Always use the search button. Many, including me are particularly annoyed by people who can't be bothered to search
2. Press the thanks button for helpful posts. It helps a lot by pointing out the useful replies and for the poster's ego...
3. Finally, the video
Please don't feel offended LOL.
As always, feel free to ask questions.

No questions yet Jason, just looking around for tricks/ tips etc at the mo. I just find forums a plethora of info and thought I best join one first. No doubt I will have plenty soon. Thanks for the reply. In fact I would like to configure specific sms tones for specific people if you knew off hand, only just noticed I can't seem to personalise my missus's profile
