Questions in the General Section - Sprint HTC One (M7)

Why is it that everyone is posting questions in the general forum and not in the Q/A? It's adding a lot of unecassary clutter...

[Q] What's the best ROM?

You should add a [Q] to the thread title.

The trolls are 2 strong. I was originally going to make this a very blunt post but changed it which then became a question. I'm just kinds surprised that no one has said anything about them as they have been popping up almost daily.

I might be overlooking it, or just not seeing anything at all, but I don't see much of the moderators as I used to back a while ago. I'm not calling anyone out, I'm sure they're lurking, but I don't see them as much in general discussion. Only Sgt. Slaughter

[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.
edit: Subject title changed to indicate discussion therein for others who may be searching.

Where is your thread?

Sorry guys,
But the first task that the modertaor committee asked me to do was to clear up the development section of each of my moderated device.
So incase you havent found your Question/App/request/ or something to that effect anymore in the developement section where you originally posted, its because I have moved to the right section.
I know it may come off as an inconvenience to some, but in the long run, I am sure it will benefit all
Cheers!

You know that rule where you have to have like 10 posts to be able to read the dev section? We should make something like "You need 50 posts to be able to post in the Dev section" And possibly have to be approved as a Developer by a Moderator before being able to create threads in the Dev section?

You think it's bad here? You should have seen the Fascinate dev section a while ago, it was such a cluster that devs had to go underground to get anything meaningful done.

Explanations?

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.
Fyi, the link to the topic: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1683939
Thanks.

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.

Calm down buddy accidents happen. I didn't mean to post in general.
Also I didn't say anything about the release dates. My questions was why do they only post certain builds.
H or M are not posted. I could care less when it was posted.
If you want to be a mod then ask to be one. No one is asking you to stand in on their behalf. This behaviour makes xda unbearable.
Ooohhhooooooo

Hi,
First, I would expect that a senior member would know which forum they were posting in. Second, IMHO, what makes XDA "unbearable" are redundant questions that could easily be answered by searching. No one was "trying to be a mod" by steering you in the right direction. I'm not trying to start a flame war or am I rushing to defend a huge contributor to this forum. But your post was a bit uncalled for. We all try to get along as best we can and we all answer questions in different manners. Thanks for your time.
i was just letting you know, so you dont post more questions into general. i was also just letting you know that I isnt a new release anymore, its about 2+ weeks old, and that by searching you probably could find an answer. anycase, it does not include a new radio :silly:

So, I was going to move this to off-topic, but realized its gone way off-topic from the off-topic topic that this started as.
Then I got a headache trying to make sense of it.
This off-topic topic is too off-topic now, even for off-topic.
So before I say off-topic anymore, thread closed.

Agreed, this should be in the OT Forums, so it seems. And the amount of RC's posting, we would of thought this.....
OK. So I moved this to Off-topic where it belongs. And let's try to stick to bugs here, and not make this a free for all. Otherwise it will have ran its course.
Maybe make the OP more clear?? Bug? From where, and what kinds, etc, etc?
