i have a unlocked g1 tht is not up to date can some on please send me the firmware or help with this
Seriously????? Every other thread here is a ROM-thread, with links included for complete instructions. Do you ask your mom to hold it when you take a leak too?
Oh yeah... this belongs in Q&A.
Here, I'll throw a bone: wiki.cyanogenmod.com

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.
*Le Sighs*
but why......

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.

I think most people deserve it by now, to be kicked in the arse. Google is your FRIEND!!!
Just a thought, but is it possible to either combine some of these threads or create a sticky to link to them?
I was looking for my first UV/OC build a few days ago, and the sheer number of TOPICS, nevermind builds took ages to sort though, where as eg the ROM/Theme sticky makes it a piece of cake.
I think theres about 6-7 of these sort of threads clogging the first page up.
Sorry if im totally wrong, I love this place!
Are you referring to the first sticky on the ****ing page?

He created an account to make a thread asking for something that's the first link on the first page. Sorry I insulted your boyfriend.
While I somewhat agree bobtentpeg .. you have to admit .. for someone to come on here and be annoyed about the lack of organization, yet haven't even read the first thread .. that's a bit foolish.
To the OP, you aren't going to get a thread for just dedicated OCUV. The best you'll get will be the stickied thread up top. Honestly though, I think it would be better served if instead of linking to direct files, and having to constantly update the thread, it would make more sense just to list the ROMS/KERNELS, and their respective threads. This way whenever you want to find it, just go to that page, and click the thread. Boom.
mikroN1 .. lolz .. I had to laugh at that. A bit harsh, but definitely funny.
Have a drink and relax man, life is short and there aint nothing here going on worth the hostility.

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.

One thing I want to do is in my forum have a developers section. Each dev can have there own section of the forum as a moderator. something like this:
Devlepoers:
____Dev1
________Version 1 app
________Version 2 app
____Dev2
____Dev3
That way, if you like a dev who doesn't have a site, you can just jump on the forum and go to the dev section and see everything they have created. Little better then sifting threw tons of pages looking for the newest ver of something, or maybe just want to see what else they have developed.
it also has a one spot access for devs to see what other dev have made and maybe incorporate into a rom ect.

Sorry dude, I need to close this. This is not allowed on xda even if this is on off topic.
Earlier today, I started a thread telling a little story about Android. But, for no reason, it was closed shortly after. No explanations, nothing.
I did it in the right section, it was not offensive or rude, I don't know what the hell I did wrong. I don't mind my topics being closed, but with no explanations, this is just bullsh*t.
If somebody could explain it to me, it'd be cool.

Where? Between the lines? In the sky? Under my bed?
Thought it might be funny to tell a story about my two years using Android using a kinda-dramatic style, but I don't get where it's against the rules.
It's in the "off-topic" section, the same one where people tell the song they are currently listening to, or other things cool to share but not more relevant than my thread. As long as I don't infringe the basic rules, I don't get it.
You are kidding me right????
There was no need to start a new thread, your post would have been well placed in either of the threads you were linked to....

Contrary to popular belief, off-topic is not a place where you can open a thread for anything you like and it just flies. It follows the same rules that apply everywhere else in the forum. In this particular case, the rule is about not opening threads that already exist. I did link you to two threads that were relevant to your post.
As for this thread, if you have a problem with a mod decision then by all means question it, but don't open a thread to do it. Send a PM to the mod in question (namely me, in this case) and politely discuss it with them.
