Anyone else just mark stupid comments as spam? - Off-topic

I got tired of seeing retarded comments from stupid people so I just started to mark them as spam in the market. Does anyone else do this?
I mean devs spend time developing an application and some person who never thinks twice about it, gives an app one star.
I just installed a recently released application that streams Grooveshark, and someone posts: "stupid, doesn't download songs" and 1 star, even though the app never claimed to download songs.

I mark stuff that's clearly dumb as either unhelpful or spam. It's unfair to criticise someone's hard work for dumb reasons. If there's a genuine complaint then that's a different matter, but "I downloaded this eBook reader app but my Xbox still can't play Heavy Rain" get's either an "unhelpful" or "spam" click from me. It depends on how harsh I think it is.

My favorites are when they one star it and says app crashes on their phone when its clearly stated in the description their certain phone isn't supported. I mark them unhelpful.

Does anyone have the impossible game?

I've always been trying to find the impossible game. The game where you basically jump. If anyone has a link to the download please post... thank you
Sent from my phone
are you thinking up papi jump?
Describe the game; as there are many jump games on the market. Is it s cow jumping, a ball that jumps over holes or a little wierd guy in a jet pack? And which direction do you jump?
Also a word to the wise, asking for someone to post a link to download an app is called app trading and can get you and the poster banned, just my $0.02. No harm in asking for the name though...

If it is a free game it is not warez. If it is paid then yes warez is against XDA rules.

If you are asking about the game called The Impossible Game where you are an orange box that jumps over things, then you are asking for a paid game; which, as you pointed out, is against the rules. Unless you are refering to a different game?
Please understand, I was not trying to start anything and I'm not a mod; so I'm not going argue the rules. That part of my post was just a heads up to protect you and others. I want to keep everyone safe and I don't want to see you or anyone else kicked off xda for gray area post. Free apps are a gray area, it is better to be safe than sorry. Since I joined over 2 years and 1000 posts ago, I have seen many members get kicked for posting links for paid AND free apps/programs;anyways back to the subject at hand, are you asking about the game in this youtube video?http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4XTKzMUAonw

Show Ideas?

Just kinda thinking out loud here (not the best thing to do but oh well!) Wouldn't it be nice to have an XDATV show about some off the apps that come from XDA? (SetCPU ect)
Or just an XDATV show dedicated to app reivews, Like SassiBob's segment but as a full show?
As I said, just thinking out loud
yeah we have chad for roms
sassy for apps
harry (lol) for a mix of quick stuff - maybe too quick
az - general xda news and other mix
that other blonde guy for interviews....
kinda need to find a set topic for each show... almost there....
would be nice to have a Q&A live, or a how-to ( mobile tech videos - bend over and take it with him xda. he is a good resource! )
another show for games...?

Ohh I love the idea of a How-to video! That would go down well with the people who are not as tech savy as the rest of us Not sure about a live Q&A though, that would depend on having a big crowd that interacts & I have a feeling that with XDATV in such a young age it would fail to attract the crowds needed. But I think maybe a top5 show? Like top5 Apps or Top5 Roms?
An XDATV Games show?! Only if we can dress the Android dude up as Mr Chip! XD haha
Maybe this is silly.... But, what if an episode was dedicated to some "issues" (like OEMS locking the bootloader, developer's thoughts on fragmentation, the suit, between Google and Oracle and it's effect on Android and the Linux kernel....)?
Sparky WAS in the doghouse. Now, He's allowed on the deck at least.

Very true.
It was just an idea.
I just like editorials and there are many issues in the Android Community that can be very polarizing.
That was my thought.

XDA Developers forum users are way too damn pretentious and immature in order to host a live Q and A - well said, guy who said that above me. XDA is too young to have that kind of crowd.
BabyDoll - Great Idea, hard to pull off without starting a flame war :-/
TRusello - I articulated your guide, but I haven't had time to edit it yet. I did it with Camtasia Studio so it came out nice and clear.
Also, the guy doing the interviews is shawn, just in case you wanted to know ^^
Oh, and on a side note, I need a nerdy girlfriend, so be sure to PM me your qualifications, ladies.

I wrote it for XDA but they didn't want to start a flame war, which is very understandable.
I had an idea on a show for how-to videos as well. I'd love to do some!
I don't have a smartphone atm to do any so I guess thats a no
I do however follow HTC news like a puppy dog, so maybe I could do some videos on HTC news? I'm talking ALL news. ROMs, Phone rumors, new releases, OEM firmware updates. I'd love a chance!
My idea for How-To videos was that there would be no set host, but anyone who wants to make a how-to video for noobs could do it. The videos would specifically show from factory to rooting and installing any given ROM on every device xda supports. The footage would be sent to me and I'd edit it to make it as short as possible without leaving anything out, and then it would be uploaded to xda's Youtube channel. If any of you are uncomfortable with speaking or being seen, that's fine, I can do the voice-over. Like I said, going from unboxed to flash-ready as fast as possible is all you'd need to do. Then each of these videos could be placed in each forum's noob sticky.

Man, I'd do it. You, me, and Bob. Put it up on streamly.tv and we're set. Having a live show in general would be fun to do. Sure, I might answer a few questions with "I don't know, go away," but that's why I'd just be hosting it. We'd have guests that came on each week to answer questions. And I'd just smack any pretension that peeked out. Or Bob would. Yeah, Bob would. Plus, there's nobody better than her at keeping things stu...non-pretentious.

My only concern with covering news from outside xda is that its outside xda. I'm by no means a decision maker here, so press on and see how far it goes. I'm sure with a live show we'd be covering general news for a want of content. But we don't embrace a brand as a community, we develop on a large number of devices from a wide array of carriers.

Screenshot ER on 3.2

Hi guys! If you remember, my app Screenshot ER was the first to work on honeycomb. If not, its in the signature.
Could all you lucky champs with 3.2 let me know if its still working please?
it works beautifully on 2.0.1 manta ray with kernel Tachi.
Still great job no matter what update for OS comes around
Cool. Are you using SER or SER 2?
1.0.8 that is
need root for this?
edit: never mind, just read your sig.
Yep... needs root. But if youre on this forum, you should know that restoring your device to vanilla is just as easy as rooting!
Works fine on Tiamat 2.1 (3.2 base).
[sER2]
Ive just checked (finally) and it works fine! Dunno why people are sending me error reports...
doesn't matter, 3.2 on Tiamat has screen shot app built in
Yep - but it sucks... this is a real screenshot app with cool features!
I'll pass, good luck
Whats your problem buddy? You just clocking up a post count with all those opinions?
Must be - im a dev here with lots of current threads and Ive only managed 1700 in the same time as you. And of course i spent most of that time making cool apps. You it seems were just trolling around because noone listens to you in the real world. ..
Hope to never see the like of you in one of my threads again. Fat chance, i know.

Sorry to disappoint but I do pay for apps on both my EVO 3D and Xoom. You said your app would ALWAYS be free to XDA members but went back on your word, that was bad enough. Now you're here spamming the forum, thats disgraceful. On the 2nd page is your last thread that was closed on Aug 4th, now you opened another thread the very next day which offers nothing that could have gone in the other thread? Oh yeah, and there's another thread in the Android Paid Apps section which was also closed.
I support devs verbally and through my wallet, but your behavior is pretty distasteful. I'm not looking for a fight, nor am I slamming your app, but I think the way you do business may hurt you more than freeloaders. Another factor may be people realize there are free apps that suit them just as well and don't have to worry about buying an app only to find it pulled from the market for some unexplained reason and have to get the other pay version.
Think of this as constructive criticism.

Please close!

For starters people under the age of 13 shouldn't be on Facebook to begin with, it is against the Terms of Service for that site.
Secondly, any children who are on Facebook should be supervised by their parents. That is part of the responsibility of being a parent.
Third, if the page offends you then simply block it from showing up on your news feed and suggest that others do the same.
Fourth, I looked at that page and there are only 1 maybe 2 images that are actually disturbing due to the fact that they are actual people. The rest are just cartoons, a good number of which are from Cyanide and Happiness a site that always pushes the line of what is "appropriate".
Frankly I can't stand people who always want something banned or taken down just because you don't like it. Here's a thought if you don't like it, don't look at it. It honestly is that simple. It's not like this page just magically shows up places, I didn't know it existed until you pointed it out. If they find that type of humor funny fine let them have their page. It's called freedom of speech.
echaynes please don't make personal attacks on here. If you disagree with what he has posted please respond in a slightly more objective manner.

This is obviously the most important issue facing our nation today. I for one will not sleep until facebook makes galaxys2Tav into the morality czar of not just facebook but the entire world wide web. There is obviously nobody more qualified to make these important moral decisions for us. Who else will think of the children?
If we don't wipe out every single trace of anything we disagree with who will keep the children from turning into people who disagree with us? How will they grow up to be just as ignorant as we are?

Like I said before it was a question to what can be done about it. I don't see why people on xda have to be so lippy about it and make sarcastic remarks. Sorry I don't agree with it but to me its seems like I'm getting called for been a "troll" and and idiot because the fact is its on a social network. If it was on xda do u not think a mod would close it as it goes beyond peoples "humor".

Not everyone said stuff like that. Personally I attempted to make logical arguments about why I would not assist you in the closing of that Facebook page.
Furthermore the Terms of Service for XDA and the Terms of Service for Facebook are both different. So no I would not expect that Facebook page to be treated the same as it would on here.

Hello there XDA People

a basic android app, and I want to work about something myself.

basic apps.

Yeah that make sense.
anyway I posted it here so..
In my experience as a software developer I usually start with what would be useful to me that isn't exactly available yet. This way I would be motivated to do it. More like putting a user's hat, think of what you need and then putting your dev hat to create it. It's difficult for others to decide for you.

For my first "real" app, beyond book tutorials, I made a database to store my internship hours and activities. At first it was simple and I had to type in all the fields. Then I expanded it to allow for drop down lists, radio and check box selection and date picker type things. After that I learned how to export my database into both a comma delimited CSV and Excel format. After that I went a step further to allow that information to be uploaded to Dropbox as well as backup the database to Dropbox and the SD card. Lastly, I learned how to let me send the spreadsheets to apps like e-mail and Printershare so I could print straight from the device. Its ugly as hell, but I might clean it up, make it look pretty, and sell it on the Play store if I get time. Currently people in my field have two choices...pen and paper, or a reasonably priced but ultimately pain in the arse online website that charges like $60 a year and we need to track this info for 3-4 years.
So, in other words...as someone else noted...figure out something you need or could use and work on it. If you can do like I did and find something useful for your field, all the better because you could make some money off of it.
One app I would like to see is a decent invoice program that would allow me to store my invoices, backup my database, print invoices to wireless or cloud printers (even using 3rd party stuff like my app does) and have it not cost stupid amounts of money like most of the decent invoicing apps on the market now. I could probably figure it out, but the above app took me over a year of casual programming to figure out...but I work in the medical field...not a developer.

So if I say "Wow, you must really be dumb, huh?" Which is also sarcastic, that's OK? It's not rude? I'm just checking because you are, obviously, saying that all things sarcastic are not rude...making you some kind of expert, right? Wait, that's not rude either because its sarcastic! I'm going to love this, because now I can put down or talk down to anyone, as long as I do it sarcastically, and not be considered rude, condescending, or an ass! Awesome!
Listen, rude by any other name is still rude and by the OP's response it is easy to see he was offended. I would be as well. Perhaps you are comfortable being told to use Google every time you ask a question, but some people prefer talking about things. Maybe hearing about stuff directly from those who have experience with it, etc. Oh, and please, before you respond, don't even go down the road of how the OP could have asked this or said something that way or another. That's just semantic bullsh¡t and I have no desire to hear it.

Please guys, back to the topic.
ExploreMN, you seems to be an expert with this stuff,
Do I need to be very advanced with Java to develop a simple app?
Or it's ok if I'm a begginer?
Sorry if I'm bothering

Nah, not a bother. I don't think you need to be am expert. Hell, I learned what I did while in graduate school (nothing computer related), while working full time and raising a newborn baby. I started with two books...Android Programming for Dummies and Android Development is 24 Hours. Those two books alone gave me the basics I needed to do everything and I would guess if you really sat down and worked it, you could chew through them in a few weeks. I was doing about a chapter every 1-2 weeks and had to reread a lot because I would forget things between reading and practice. At your age it probably wouldn't be the same experience. At 42 I've already started the natural cognitive decline that makes learning new and not familiar material more difficult on top of being incredibly busy. LOL
