I'm tired but addicted to XDA. Anyone else?
Why do you "hate XDA?"
It's the best community for our devices out there. I love it. If you don't like it then why come?

there you go person.
We all feel your pain
The problem with addictions is that they are addictive and hard to give up....hence why they are called addictions
To quote a good friend:
I have finally figured out what is wrong with us all.
We got something that can be called ORD
Obsessive-ROM Updating Disorder
you might have it if you:
-Flashes new roms as soon as they are available
-Need to have the lastes OS build
-Need to have the latest packages, it do not matter if there is no changes to the application, just as long as it has a higher build number.
-Is often forgetful in daily activities cause you are thinking of what the next leaked update will be
-Often does not follow instructions and fails to finish schoolwork, chores, or duties in the workplace because your urge to browse websites sutch as Htcpedia or xda-developers.
-Difficulties completing household chores as you are constantly refreshing your browser for updated roms
-Often having difficulty concentrating on conversations as you are constantly backing up contacts etc, setting up mail and customizing graphics on the newest rom
-Appearing not to listen when spoken to (often being accused of beeing obsessesive with "that damn phone"

Who said it was Mikey that created it
we are all addicted..so dont fight it and just let it take over again
Talking about addictions some famous writer once quoted:
Smoking is a easy habit to give up...
I have done it so many times ...
I think the same applies to XDA too...

Hmmmm, could've sworn it was him that was talking about ORD one day.... must've taken it from someone
My name is George. I have... oh wait new ChangeLog 1 sec. Yeah where was I? Oh right. My name is George. I have ORD. I developed it once I became a member of XDA. I'm going to rehab next Wednesday. I heard it helps for a while but then the ORD comes back. My arms hurt from typing so much so cross your fingers for me please. =D

Exactly....Its our Spouses or Boyfriends/girlfriends that really get the raw deal....
I definitely have ORD!
I am always very happy when I have flashed a new ROM and I finally have everything set up. But after one day I start checking XDA again for new ROM's and get really annoyed when there aren't any I will never be satisfied but I don't care because I LOVE flashing!
But I am a girl and most of my friends aren't into this kind of stuff. So when I try to talk to them about it ( and that is a lot ) they don't understand any of it, so then I try to explain to them what ROM's are etc.. Just so that I can talk to them about it (selfish)
But they don't really care and get really bored by my stories but I tell them anyway..
I have ORD.

JUST CANT GET ENOUGH!!!!
LOL

Should we have ORD-A Chapters (ORD Anonymous), do you know someone that rehab from ORD and provide some advice . I think we need it (well I need it).
My name is Giovanni and I have ORD.
I am in denial. Will always be! Until it kills me! LOL! I wonder which part of the body deteriorates first? Could it be our bums? Oh! This is really serious stuff! Big bums gallore on XDA? LOL!

It's even harder when they are all Apple fanbois and don't know what a "recovery" is
I'm quite sure many of you have no idea who I am, but that's alright. I wouldn't expect you to.
Just wanted to give my appreciation to the MANY MANY devs here, in thanks for making my old devices much more than the manufacturers intended them to be.
I'll be serving one year of Active Army Duty (Deployment) in the Middle-East & Surrounding areas, hopefully still enjoying my HTC HD7, until around July of 2012.
I'll miss xda, as it's been one of my other homes for a little over two years now.
Love you guys, see you soon!
Have a great trip Be safe now!

Hey bro be safe out there. My sis is in the Air Force in Afghanistan. Just be careful and I really appreciate those who serve our country. Have a safe trip
Be safe always!

Best of luck to you man, come back safe, or just be safe in general.
-Remember, Android hell is a real place and you will be sent there at the first sign of defiance-
Take care! Thank you for serving!
Good luck and be safe. I had the luxury of serving during peacetime, and I tip my hat to guys who are really putting it on the line.
It is a shame that troops are deployed without an imminent reason anyways..
have a great trip

Seems that AZ and SASSI are gone. Anyone who knows why? Damn. I really hope that XDA is not causing this - those shows were something unique here on XDA.
Tell me please

yes they are gone. i talked to jeff. it has to do with the moderators taking back the portal and youtube channel and undoing all the changes they made. sam, bob, and jeff are gone i believe. they are now doing super user tv for rootzwiki
Seems very stupid by the MODS...Why would you remove your most popular assets....? I need an explanation
sassi has some random new vid about a vid she's going to do (VEDA?), looks like she just didn't want to sleep lol.
Sam is going to be on the new rootz show tonight.

Azrienoch and Bob choose to leave XDA. It is their choice. The mods hold no ill will towards anyone. Sometimes things change. We wish azrienoch and Bob all the luck with their new pursuits.

Exactly. We are looking for Hosts to create fun and exciting videos for the members of XDA and the world at large. There is a lot of exciting things in to works and if anyone has any ideas and/or wants to talk about becoming a host, feel free to hit me up, with a private message.
I hope everyone is enjoying the Videos from AdamOutler and Shen.
It's very sad message. I m very unhappy to hear this.
Az is my favorite host Sam too.
Well, if Az, Sassi & Sam are gone, there is no reason to watch XDA-TV anymore...

I'm sorry you feel that way, there are still some pretty great videos being produced, and more to come!
so far no good video IMO. hope Shen Ye and others can cover those things up.
Too bad they left... I really liked their video's...

seriously? the biggest mistake of XDA TV. XDA TV do something. bring them back!
to be fair some of the things I've been reading and also seeing how some members treat others It wont be long until lots more are driven away to elsewhere too which is a shame b/c this is a great place and XDA TV is a great asset.
Some members think just b/c they are popular or have a popular Rom out or something that they can speak to less knowledgeable members like crap which as lead to their followers in them threads thinking its ok to do the same
More power to em. The way xda has been treating is readers/users lately has been very unprofessional. See yall over at rootz
Hello everyone.
I'm Aeren, the newcomer.
I'm a light tech enthusiast and a privacy advocate, and I hope that I can bring my small contribution here.
Apart from that, I'm quite easygoing, so feel free to bash me when I'm an idiot, I won't take it personally ;-)
Wish you all a wonderful day !

Hello Aeren and welcome to XDA!
Enjoy your stay.
Hello and thank you for letting this old sod join XDA
I'm by no means an expert when it comes to tech but more of an enthusiast although I am the one many of my family and friends come to when needing help and/or technical advice and I even sort out iPhones when a cousin of mine manages to forget her details
I've only ever owned 1 iPhone and that was a iPhone 3 and since then I've been an Android fan when it comes to phones and streaming devices.
I've often delved in and out of XDA when doing any research for gadgets or tech support so at 54 I thought it was high time I signed up.
Cheers.
Pete.
