Same here, welcome

Welcome you will like it here
Reading here in this General Android forum you get the general info not real detail. But, go to your specific phone forum (e.g. mine is Vibrant) and there will be a General section a Q/A, Theme/mods and Development
The General usually will have a bunch of tutorials on how to mod the phone install custom roms, etc. In that area you will find a treasure trove of all the information that you ever had questions about your device. I Recommend READ as much of this as you can before losing focus. This will help you to understand how and why the phone does what it does.
The Development is where we post our custom software for the phone or modems ...etc.
This is the fun area (for me) amazing skills in this forum and on this site.
After you are adept on your phone you will never go back to stock out of the box anything .....and then --- you will hooked
Welcome.

And now all of you are in MY little corner of the place...

Hehe, welcome to off topic ! Watch out for trolls ..... They are unleashed

This is a great forum!

Oh yeah... this belongs in Q&A.

Ouch that's a violation.
OP you can do a google search even on how-to root the G1 easily...You didn't say if you had rogers or even relevant info like if you have 1.6 or 1.5 now.

I believe we have the right, considering the very first sticky reads "Don't Start A New Thread - Dream Questions & Answers Here!".
so yes, we can.

Yeah we did all start somewhere, I started by reading the stickied threads then learnt how to post in the right forum. And I'm not an ass just an evil twisted soul that can't be arsed with idiots? Anything left your unclear on? If so see point 3 in my sig.
I look foward to laughing and deleting your pm.
wow bro. Im sorry but im the last one who would flame u but i seriously think this is the dumbest and rudest thread i have ever read. There is a whole section of G1 tutorials and people willing to help if u just READ. Either u are blind or you are just dumb.

i agree with you but if you let the noobs run wild then the g1 fourms will be jus like the magic/sapphire/mt3g forums....so i can see why people here are so quick to correct the noobs...
I stand by what I said here.

OP is ridiculous. I've helped many many people (or at least tried) here, via Gtalk or other means. I've had the patience of the saint. But once I've told a guy to download base rom from Cyan's wiki and he asked me to email it to him... I lost it. I have 0 patience now. And for the most part I stay out of threads like this... but this one caught my attention because fails in every aspect:
Spelling/punctuation
Basic research
Providing most basic info
Posting in the right forum

Feel free to flame me.

[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.

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.

The coolest boot animation ever!

Apologies to those of you who come accross this thread in the anticipation to see an absolute killer of a boot animation, but I am afraid I have a noob question for you all.
I can see a lot of different boot animations in the roms that I have tried it today (my first time doing this ****), and I found some really amazing ones and some that are just pants.
What are the best boot animations in your opinions?
Furthermore, how easy is it to apply a boot animation to any rom that you download and install? Can I make one myself? Is it a GIF format? Are boot animations specific to devices? Eg: Will a boot animation from a droid work on my Nexus s?
I do however love the boot animation that is installed with NEXUS SENSE ROM. i mean WOW... have you guys seen that? I wish there were others like that around, but my search efforts on XDA as well as google were fruitless.. everything is crap!
Prepare to get flamed... This isn't the section bud, please learn to read the forum rules. You're more likely to get your answers if you posted in the proper section...
inc flames.
The search button is your friend. furthermore, boot animations aren't the territory of development, thats more of a theming thing and finally, threads like this that don't release things are generally a nono in XDA unless they're in general or Q&A.

[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.
such stertywo
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
