No. You will find most of the stuff available for your phones mixed in here, just make sure you only use items that specifically say are for or ok to use with the showcase.

add144 is the test of will around here. If you can last through his pounding of you, then you will probably learn how to use this forum pretty well. We get the same questions over and over again, so sometimes it gets a little old when you can tell that someone hasn't looked for an answer to a really easy or common question.
Showcase users will find more info and help here than probably anywhere else, other than the irc channel also populated by us. CS has gotten douchey and made us take down the 2.2 build, but everything else is still here or linked from here.
Now, if you aren't too buttsore from add144, welcome to the forum.... get to the reading.

CM7 for dinc

Well CM7 has made an official release on the incredible... I'm hoping this means Tbolt isn't far behind... I was told probably on 7.0.1 or 7.1 release by @cyanogen on twitter.

Do you know the only rule of Cyanogen?
Anyway, it's a problem with getting LTE to work. AOSP doesn't have anything for LTE. That was all HTC.
I do know the rule... Don't ask for eta's ... What is your point? I never said anything about asking for an ETA.
And thanks for the info on the LTE issues. I figured it had to do with that. Although I'd be happy with a 3G CM7 since I don't even have 4G where I'm at yet.
Sent from my ADR6400L using Tapatalk
Just making sure you don't piss off the devs.
I'm with you on 3G only for now. But, just speculation, it might be a matter of getting all data to work. The thunderbolt has two radios essentially. A 1x-3g and 3G-LTE. That's why you can do data+voice at the same time. I figure they work in tandem and it's a matter of getting it all to work together not working on just getting one to work.
You might want to follow @layherDaddy for updates on CM7 for Thunderbolt.
EDIT: @LayherDaddy just tweeted exactly what I said. It's a matter of getting data period not just LTE.
I concur with starscream86, what the hell did he say to merit a "Don't ask for ETA's" warning... I am happy with Tesla Coil till anything official, anyone waiting should just pick that up.
In other news, this doesn't belong here.

Why Is Every Word Capitalized? Just playin with ya....I have more important things to pick on
I'll say it since I'm surprised it wasn't screamed by post #3, which is somewhat surprising, yet also frustrating due to lack of consistency.... This should not have been posted in Development, MODS please move, or remove altogether.
I wonder if the titles for each of the sections (General, Q&A, Accessories, Development, Themes and Apps) just aren't clear enough...seems a lot of people who want to ask ANYTHING to do with ANYTHING, really, automatically think it belongs in Development. Even better is the fact that the Thunderbolt Development section is only like 5 pages long, yet the OP wasn't observant enough to notice that of the THREE other threads talking about CM7, TWO of those threads contain answers as to the holdup.... (and don't whine that 5 pages is a lot to look though if you aren't good with the search tool, it took me all of 20 seconds to scroll through 5 pages worth of threads and find out that there are CM7 threads on page 2, 4 and 5.)

Still no Samsung Infuse 4g thread??

2 days before release and there's STILL no thread?? Hell, even the Droid Charge has one. come on XDA!
bump bump bump
I'll bump this as we are still having the same issue with the T-Mobile G-Slate... Good luck. We have put in so many requests and they say they put you on a "Request List". Our device has been out since April 20th and announced well before that, yet we are in the same boat. I hope all works out well for the Infuse 4G getting a forum.
Bump,bump, bump it up we need some forums please

why do they need a request list? Probably faster to just add the forum then add the name to a list. Im sure theyll say they have to appoint a mod to it but I don't really care about that, do you?

This phone is a pretty sweet phone, the GPS works great and so does the email. other than that it reminds me of the captivate.

I agree, if it came down to it...you would think they would appoint a member with a good rep to moderate. It can't hurt anything, and if it does then find another mod. The request list is just another way of saying we don't want to give you a forum IMO. Lately there have been to many problems with them not adding forums which I'm sure will lure a lot of members away from the site. It's all good for them to add forums for non-existing devices though....
Im liking my infuse forums please....

It's got to be the timing. Just too many android devices catching the eye if devs. I would just wait a little. But I'm thinking nobody wants to invest energy in another variant. Sad but probably true (at&t know it sheep haven't a clue ... most people probably don't even know what LTE is)
Sent from my Liberty using XDA App
You are right about the amount of devices coming out so quickly but in my opinion they should all be part of the community. Maybe XDA is trying to save bandwidth. I hope to see sections for some of these overlooked devices soon, but I'm not holding my breath.

Bumping for an Infuse thread. Just sold my Captivate for this device.
Bump it up again , Set one up guys or I'll be tempted to make a forum website myself... Too impatient to get things rolling.... Dual booting droid and windows etc etc
this amoled screen is effing HUGE
I just read on the XDA twitter today that there is an Infuse forum.....
And if you look, there is... right with all the other Samsung devices.

Being a crybaby. Not seeking to learn.

Curious about why the Thunderbolt has at least a beta miui port and we're still stuck. I thought it was because we have no RIL in source for the 4G radio, so is that something they've been leaked/reverse engineered and we haven't?
To be upfront: By asking this question I AM indeed implying that the charge devs suck, I didn't search before posting, I expect ICS ported tomorrow, and that I believe I deserve to be served breakfast in bed. Thank you.

We clearly need to organize an OCCUPY DEVELOPERS organization and set up a tent city on the front lawns of these developers. Maybe then they'll realize that we want results.
99% of us aren't given the gifts of computer programming, and the 1% that do think they can just rule the XDA community with an iron fist.
We are the 99% who don't know what ADB is or how to use it. We disagree that the developers should have all the power. I wouldn't recognize linux of it politely introduced itself with a handshake and a smile. ODIN package... What is that? We refuse to read a single post in the thread before we complain and ask a question that had clearly been answered as recently as ten seconds ago because the world is all about us. And if a developer overlooks that one meaningless feature that I alone liked, it's my right to spam his thread with that demand instead of figuring it out for myself.
We can only bring about change by organizing and living in a shanty-town. And if the MODS at XDA use pepper-ban spray and move threads it will only make our cause stronger.

Same here. I thought maybe a mod edited the thread title at first, until I read all the replies LOL!
I think we should organize an OCCUPY MIUI movement and force them into dev'ing for our phone too. That way we can overtake their source code and all will be well in the Charge world!

If LG were to release ICS on the G2X? I see devs making great ROMs for it yet are hindered by a lack of drivers, which I assume would be part of an official ICS update. Any devs care to comment?

Not really. Pricks like him are abundant on forums, even the respected forums here on XDA. Still, just saying "what isn't working now will work" is not enough. With those broken features working, could devs be motivated to step up custom scripts and mods that go beyond even what's available now?

Respected forums? Xda? Maybe like before Android, not anymore now.
A lot of people are just disappointed with the same questions being asked like 5 times when you could just click a page or 2 back and see the same topic already discussed.
We just need an active moderator for these forums to merge the redundant topics together.

I don't know, I got my ass warmed for spamming, but then they hired me to spam professionally. I'm not trying to start anything, mt3g we've been down that road, accomplished nothing. Anyhow, my question is, and I understand basically, but why do you guys worry so much about people starting new threads? Its not using any storage space that would affect any of us. When a new thread is started, no matter if there's a thousand just like it, it promotes social gathering and in most cases, usefull information. But(never start a sentence with this), when you guys run your cruisers down here and go Gestapo on the op's, that's even more useless than the duplicate thread. Now, instead of a duplicate thread with new and useful information, its a duplicate thread with new and useful information that's been cluttered by flamers and rent-a-thread cops. Does it make sense? I'm really trying to be professional here, but guys, listen, I was a mod for 2 forums prior to working for XDA and I'm gonna tell ya, playing forum God got old within 5 minutes. You don't know our mods are not active, I got disciplined when I screwed up. Maybe you're wrong about starting new threads?Buru, I really respect you and your work and I really don't like disagreeing with you. I hope that I don't jeopardize our getting along. It just needs to be said that there are as many people fed up with the vigilante moderating, if not more, than those fed up with duplicate thread starters. Look at it like this, has any of the thread copping payed off? No. Did anyone active in thread copping become mod or get hired? No. Now, do I really need to say anymore? Just look at all I just cluttered this thread up with.......... thread copping........, unproductive. If you disagree with me, that is your right if you live in the united states, this is XDA, I don't care if you disagree with me, you don't have XDA signing your checks.
[email protected]
And I could care less if they do sign yours, I'm not trying to mod or be a cop, I would like to come to a forum that I enjoyed for about 3-4 years until lately. This is the sloppiest and most unorganized phone e section I've read... the MyTouch 3G and G1 are still modded it seems, the O2X is incredibly controlled... the tempo and mood would be a lot better and here from a lot of members some would stick around and others wouldn't leave. I'm surprised whitehawkX came back and EaglesBlood is still here... if I'm that big of a problem the mods will come and say something to me and I will behave but until then.... deal with me I guess.

Wow. Are your saying because there are threads that I guess are beneath you or a liitle repetitive, that the developers should up and leave a phone that they love?

How did you get any of that from what I said? Quote specifically please, and I will reiterate what was confused... I would never want that! That's the only reason I'm still with the g2x, I'm saying the repetitiveness of useless threads ("how do you update baseband, and how come I hear these noises when I call someone after installing this rom, I'm coming from 2.3.4 I received yesterday.") anything of that nature is what's wrong with this forum.

I'm coming to the G2x from a few other Android phones (LG Optimus V & Motorola Triumph) and it was hard to find the relevant and important info here even though I've written guides & developed for other Android phones before.
There's no need to depend on moderators, just a default thread to point everyone to with a FAQ section (maybe eventually sticky it or put it on the top of the stickied thread). Then it should be updated regularly by a person with good writing skills. or even a wikipage on github that a select few can update so the burden isn't on one person. Anyway I know it's towards the end of the G2x's lifecycle (until official ICS maybe), so none of this may matter, but just suggesting for future reference. Good, clean, & simple documentation prevents a lot of repeated questions.

Skyrocket Section Etiquette

ok so this is to help keep the peace i am posting this on top of the forum rules they may overlap or intersect. My goal here is to help keep down on the issues of repeat threads, wrong sections, trolling, and any other hijinx that comes here.
1. SEARCH
yes sometimes its hard especially on your phone with taptalk because we all know how that works. Solution: Try using google search using keywords such as xda, skyrocket, and whatever your issues is this always works for me.
If your on a computer use xda's built in search tool or google as i stated above.
I personally promise 90% of all issues can be found on the web with answers if you just take a few minutes to search
2. IF ITS A QUESTION IT BELONGS IN Q&A
It does not matter what the question pertains to it is a question and belongs in Q&A i have reported tons of these here recently having them moved. i know you think that its a general question but no it belongs in Q&A ok.
3. READ
This one is kinda broad for a reason here we go
If you ask a question within a thread at least have the decency to read the last few pages to see if anything comes up that may answer your question im not talking the whole thread but maybe 3 or so pages. The reason for this is that i have seen alot of threads where people have a question answered then not 2 or 3 posts later the same question comes up. This leads to cluttering of the thread making it much harder for others to find information.
This also goes along with wanting to make a thread look at like 3 pages of threads to make sure you dont have a reapeat post this thing happens alot again it comes from lack of attention.
4. TROLLING/FLAMING
This ones a big one and im a massive perp for this and will be the first to admit it.
We need to stop the trolling its just getting worse and not fixing anything yes its hard to ignore especially for us old timers but we need to set the standard now this forum is too big for us to be going on like we have been.
Solution: squash the issues by reporting if you wanna report multiple times fine get your buddies to report fine but lets stop the hate i personally am working on this as well.
i know you guys are gonna ignore this and whatever but my hope is the message gets across to you guys and makes this section a more peaceful place for all
wanted to thank you for posting this even though most of it should be common sense but i only got 8 thanks per day

You might mention in the OP that the best way to Google search the forums in to prefix the search with:
site:forum.xda-developers.com
So to search for 'skyrocket ics update' within the xda forums only would be:
site:forum.xda-developers.com skyrocket ics update
Also you could add links to the existing threads stickied in Dev. We all know their stickied for a reason, but many people overlook them and head straight for the new thread button
If you are going to help somebody, have the courtesy to check back on the thread so you know they are in the right direction.
