Seems to me like you're speed reading the WIKI in the same way people read a cheap book..... don't start at the beginning, read every other chapter then (and I'm waiting for this one) complain that the book was crap because you missed something.
20 minutes after your first post asking what a rom is you're suddenly 'expert' enough to discern that the HTC ROM is better than your ATT one. Well yes - you're probably right but how long will it be before you discover that your radio might not work after your upgrade (another 5 minutes) or that you can screw up without hardSPL (sorry missed that one 'cos it was in chapter 2 and I only read odd numbered chapters on Tuesdays).
Go away and come back when you've learned how to read.

LOL! Very true though.
Sepig. People are going to bash you if you don't spend a lot of time reading the wiki and forums before you post questions because you can seriously screw up your device if you don't. From your post, it will be a while before you can upgrade your phone.
Just go here and install this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=334679
Once you've install that CORRECTLY, go here for the official kaiser rom:
http://www.zshare.net/download/45579378780722/
That only took me 2 minutes to do. Wiki is your friend. Remember that!

Thats very positive attitude, instead of bashing ppl like bunch of 7th graders you actually made an effort to provide exactly what the newbie was looking for... VERY NICE, I LIKEE
I totally understand that this is a very basic question but instead of loading your guns you should just point the person in the right direction like ericc191 here. Just think of yourself when you got your 1st pda phone ever...
Thats just my 2 cents..
cheers

Have you considered that I might actually be a 7th grader???
Anyway, a bit harsh maybe - but if people fall over backwards to help others who are too lazy or impatient to help themselves then we'll be as inundated with useless posts as the Hermes forums.
And fyi, I don't normally flame noobs if they've done a bit or real work themselves - instead I normally try to help.
Also fyi, I was mildly flamed as a noob - ONCE only. I went away with my tail between my legs and learned to read - once I could read I learned to write.
In a bizarre way, by flaming noobs you do help - 1. because you bump their post. 2. someone always comes along to help. 3. To get the help they have to read through the scorn at their (sometimes) dumb question or attitude so maybe they research better next time.
Besides the above I'd had a beer and a ****ty day

And the hard work from these cookers is free anyway (donations that is) so just do your home work first before posting. Is that too much to ask - an intelligent question?

Flaming is a bit pointless if done to someone who, as was obviously the case here, comes with a complete blank and probably doesn't even know what a wiki is and what/where to look first.
On the other hand, it's a perfect opportunity to throw one's wisecracks at the noob and entertain the forum. A bit too easy though, don't you think?
There is a difference between helping or spoiling

Totally agree! This forum is not started just a few days ago. There are plenty of info. to solve most problems. Encourage people being lazy is actually not good for them. No need to scold them but just point them to the right place to read. If they don't. Just ignore them. I've been ignored before, but now I am able to cook my own Kaiser ROM.
Spoiling people is not helping.
In fact I would propose there is a black out period like 24hrs to 48hrs that a newbie cannot start any new thread. They may post to ask question but not starting new thread as soon as they register the forum.
Sad but true.
It seems that people are not into reading these days. Such a shame, cause reading makes you intelligent ! *ping*
No but seriously, read the forum starting with the Wiki. After that please remind yourself that you are NOT an IT-geek which makes the whole process probably even more dangerous. After the coscideration that your computerskills utterly -suck- , click cross in the right-upper-corner and have a nice day.
with love!
I see this as a website to go to to find answers.
Similarly to how I would go to Dell.com (or whatever) if I wanted to find a PC to buy to play my latest game I bought.
I don't go reading through the technical manual on how a CPU or GPU works so that I know which one to buy. I look to the people who already have the knowledge to answer the questions I have.
Most of the regular posters on here (I'm guessing) already know a lot about flashing PDAs etc... especially the first guy who flamed the OP. If you don't want to share your knowledge then don't take part in the forum. Yes, there are people who are trying to find an easy way to learn everything that you know and I agree that they should do their research etc... but this guy was abviously wanting a few pointers and got blasted for it. Take it as a compliment that he feels confident in this forum to be able to prvide him with the bit of knowledge he requires to do a flash and then be done. He has never done one before and will never do one again so why does he have to spend weeks reading material that potentially could give him answers that you could write in a line or so?
Please, don't flame the noobs.
I find that more often than not they don't come back.
Look how many times he has replied to this thread since the first guy flamed him... none.
No ill feelings to the original poster, as we were all there one day,
but to see it as a thread headline made me laugh!!! Actually made my day!
No worries, ROM Flashing is easy as hell!!

Nobody get paid in this forum. You pay Dell for their machine so you may and should entitle some service. If you get some free service AND some free spanking in this forum, that is life, no flesh does not come with blood. Even experienced one may get spanked once a while by asking non-sense question. No need to be too thin-skin.
You may also be the lucky ones who has plenty of money and being pampered and like the noobs who like to ask million dollar question like "Which is the best ROM in this forum?" or "How do I flash my ROM step_by_step with guaranteed no risk?" or "Where do I get free SIM unlock service?" and expect an answer right away.
Many people paid to have their machine unlocked. Getting knowledgeable advice from someone is a service and entitled to get compensation for. Talk to a lawyer for advice, you will fully appreciate all the good folks in this forum and they are the one needed to be pampered and not the noobs.
One will learn and learn by reading this forum. It is more like drugs to me now.
He hasn't replied, that is good, that means he is doing reading and reading and reading..... If he is not, why he want to risk his $600 machine and ended up blaming everyone in this forum for not helping him or prevent him from doing that.
I don't think he was flamed by the #2 or #3 or # .... He is being educated! He is benefiting by this experience! The machine that's saved maybe his!
Please note there is a note in this forum which says:
Reading this Forum (Wiki) may be hazardous to your health!
Hey, I think it may also be hazardous to your family life, your love life, and/or your current job! Not just your machine!
Lets get a bit real here...
The name of this site is XDA-Developers. There is a bit of a clue in the title as to a certain amount of pre-knowledge. This guy asked what a ROM is - he could have got his answer from dictionary.com but instead decided to go to a group of people who are (or were) efectively researching on the forefront of the XDA pda's.
Most noobs (me included) have a lot of experience of computers but at first they don't have any idea of how to translate this into WM5 or WM6. But they learn quick because they already have the pre-knowledge to enter a developers site. This question was nothing like that and there is a greater than 90% chance that we'll be fending off the 'what is the best rom', 'how do I insert the stylus', 'how do you spell brick' type of questions unless he is discouraged from proceeding without some serious reading.
I know there are nice and nasty ways to tell someone what to do, but my experience of these forums is that people who don't read will not read the 'help granny cross the road' style of advice - but they do tend to get the point when flamed a bit (and it could have been worse).
Anyway, I hope he's gone away - keeps reading and then comes back a bit better prepared. And lets face it - anyone can flash a Rom, but not everyone can recover from a bad flash - and bad flashes is what we want to prevent at any cost.

Actually, I bricked my first PDA phone on the second day... That's when I found this forum However I managed to unbrick it. Somehow. Can't remember the how.
Hello everyone
Im what you guys would call the ultimate Noob at rom creating
i ve created my rom kitchen and made several attemps at creating my first rom ......with very lil sucsess i may add .... i ve made roms that dont start right and even dont go passed the bootloading screen ...lol but all of you have started where im at and probably say yeah i remember those days ...lol
anyway i ve talked to some of you a lot and the seinor members and moderators seem to help me a lot which im thankful for but im afraid im still not on the right page of where i need to be as far as rom creating is ive taken your advise and put it to good use and has got me as far as im am now but i think im just anoyed at my self for not really getting it ........ i have flashed maybe everbodys rom on here to my poor att Tilt ..from Dutty's to Hyperdragon III and liked that the way Sleuth's 3.0 is i would like to make a rom like his i ve tryed to understand the UC concept of his rom but im just not getting it ..... I really dont like to give up on things that interest me but at this point im afraid of messing up my Tilt........any help would be greatly appreciated .
Here's my advice:
Punctuation, grammar, and lose the boldface print... no need to emphasize your entire post.
thank you i will do that. sorry this is my first time posting anything .
What happened to the other 8 posts by you?
i ve taken a few steps forward, but still im learning . thanks for asking
Wrong Foot
Im very new to posting threads and fourms period and i came across this web site on a google search and checked it out. I read some things here and thought this was very interesting stuff mabye i could learn this and do it to my phone.So here i am learning and asking questions and trying out what im learning on this site on my phone and seeing some amazing things go on in my phone . I am pleased at myself for what i have done . But like all things new, sometime you get stuck at a point where you need a lil help so thats why im posting this thread to see if someone who has been though this before can help me understand a bit more about the ROM creating process. Im sorry for posting a lot of time,and asking a lot of questions and im also sorry for my mispelling of some words in my post but if i can get someone to maybe take me under there wing and show me the ropes that would be great. I would like to see my name next to a rom that i created one day.
Thanks for taking the time to read my post.
hello i have a tmobile mda vario iii and i was was wondering what rom is best there are so many of them. though i did read several thread i have no idea which one to use
Read my friend....read......because the question your asking is 100% personal prefence. I am guessing since this is your first post and by your question you have never flashed before. Then you have ALOT to read, go to the kaiser wiki it is your friend 2 .
Here ill help
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Kaiser
Edit: NEVER flash unless you know EXACTLY what you are doing, there are many things which me done before hand for a successful flash will happen. READ!
yeah it is i did just do the sim unlock though, i did use that wiki cause my phone did that reset thing where it restores to factory but somthing went wrong and it wouldnt connect to the network but a hard reset fixed that. as for the rom i wanna try 6.1 the extra battery life sounds good
uh oh, here it comes. Dude, seriously you should delete this post before guys like ScotchUA burn you alive....seriously.

First Off, I'm not impressed by your tone, Scotchua has gone out of his way to help countless people with countless problems. He is a great contributer, to portray him as a "torch welding maniac" is uncalled for.
Second Off, Everyone should read the Announcement That is posted at the top of every Kaiser Forum.
Third Off, My Signature Is Very Noobie friendly, Check it Out!
Thread Closed Pursuant to the Guidelines set forth in the Kaiser Section Announcement and the Forum Policies.
Hey guys, I am having a problem. My ATT Tilt is stuck on bootloader and will not load. I have flashed my ROM for the 5th time now and every time I turn off my device, it gets stuck on bootloader. I have used the HTC provided EXE Rom loader in their site. What can I do, please help.
I suppose when you post your question here is because you did read the wiki and the sticky threads about "how to flash", etc.
I suppose if you read those threads, you used the correct combination in radio, SPL, and ROM
So, if you did all those things, now you must only flash another ROM compatible with your SPL and Radio.
If you did not, then read those sticky threads and then try to unbrick your device. Then, try to write here what SPL, radio and ROM, etc. numbers appear on the boot screen so that somebody will tell you about taking the device to the technical service. (One thing I learned: no device gets stop on bootloader if everything inside it is in the correct combination)

First of dont be afraid, you wont brick your phone installing a theme There is no risk involved.
If you are searching for themes you can try here and here^^
of course there are far more, but you might wanna start there
If you have questions concerning the themes and how to install them, plz first read some posts in these threads so that no unnecessary questions are ask, if you still dont know how, then just ask in these threads the OPs are there to help you
I would recommend though, that you first install CHT 2. Its necessary for the most themes and for the other stuff you will find here. Without it you more or less can throw away your HD2^^
Just use the search function of the forum and you will surely find it
And for the next time you have questions, I would recommend you first search the forum on your own before opening a thread like that. On the first site of this forum there are 3 threads with more than 15 themes. So you could have found something.
Just remember that for the next time
thank you so much i did look up themes on here but really couldnt find any thing but im sure your right i am sorry
as other posters have said, you should try CHT 2.....

you'll be fine mate.....
