So. The other day. I dropped my phone in the toilet. My mytouch is life. Haha. It was 2 in the morning. And I couldn't find rice. And couldn't vacuum it out cause of my family sleeping. I waited til morning. Vacuumed it. Then bought rice and put it in there for 24 hours. Before. When I turned it on. It turned on. But the screen was black. Now. Everything is perfect.
Moral of the story. I don't think we need to bring out phones in the bathroom.. Unless you're pooping.. Haha.
Along with that. Anyone that will drop their phone in the toilet.. Like me.. Use rice!

While removing my lower sim/sd card cover I ended up crushing it when I slid it off. Luckily I was able to bend it back and still use it. It sits inside a case so you do not see at all. I was so disgusted....
Anyway I call HTC support to order a new one to replace and they are shipping one to me for FREE!! The support gentleman was very helpful and was glad to help. As he was entering the order into his computer he advised that it is listed at no charge. Shipping and all!!! Just thought I would pass this own just in case it happens to any of you all.
There was another thread in one of the inspire forums about this. The thread also said some.members were able to get that and new battery doors for free.

Its very easy to miss something. A lot of people or turned away from this site because people are hesitant to post here in fear of getting bashed.
Oh and I did do a "quick" search on sim/sd cover and didn't see anything without reading a few hours of post.

Some people here are just flat rude for no reason. He made a post to try and help people. Not everyone saw the other post (I am one of them) and now I know if mine breaks I can get it fixed for free. Find something better to do then harass someone trying to help. It's not like he asked a question that has been answered 30000 times already.
Thanks for the post OP!

This OP has created like 3-4 new threads, post root attempt. Regulars are attempting to help. It's not absorbing.
OP was advised yesterday to do some reading and learn a little bit of the basics (you know, stuff like, what is s-On, what is a bootloader) of the phone prior to rooting.
Responded that the stickied guide was too hard. Wanted people to "send him the root program." Went ahead and did anyway. Was referred to the faq of his rooting method, and *again* to mudknot's guide, where his questions would have been easily answered.
And now here we are, third new thread, asking for a personalized bail-out.
And he'll say I'm trolling, probably.
Bull****. This is ridiculous.
Inspired Ace 1.0.1¦ XDA Premium
I did not know all this. In that case your right bull **** and laziness. I won't bother trying to help. Can we get a mod to close this thread and possibly give him a temp ban. So he has the time to read and learn what he is doing before he post again please.
And i apologize for my lack of knowledge on this op and his laziness.

I have pm'd a mod, OP I will help you, but keep it to this thread.
Thanks mud. I think he needs a good lesson though. Otherwise hell keep doing it. I understand it sucks when you mess up your phone. Took me 2 hours to root cause i had problems. Learn to use the search feature and Google. Do your research. I have only made post recently never asked a question ( today was my first post). Your not the only one that's had these problems which means the answers out there.

I have landed all my post today alone. So yea it was my first post. I just didn't pay attention to who was creating the post. Now I'm going to be a little more tentative to that. Gotta get my post and thanks up so i can get mod status and really start helping with all the rubbish in the forums. Make these lazy people work like the rest of us do and not depend on us for every little thing. Use the little bit of brains you have lol.
I have seen a lot, and I mean a lot of threads turn into a flame fest immediately after the OP posts. People just want to contribute. Especially new members. Why is it so many of you feel the need to turn any thread you don't like into a total bash fest? REALLY?! I come here to see new things, learn a little, contribute and be informed... Instead I get to wade through a mound of worthless posts and constant thread resurrections. If you don't like it, don't post in it. Isn't that simple. Apparently not for a bunch of people. Why not spend your time contributing or not posting. It would make this place look and feel a lot more like a DEVELOPMENT FORUM than a kiddie pool. There is a general "talk about anything" thread already, so use it instead. Hopefully these words will sink in to a few of you. And don't flame this thread! I've been here longer and modded more than most of you so I feel I have the right to point out what a mess this place is becoming.
Thanks for reading and happy modding.

Some of it is just out of good clean fun and ball busting. I myself like to tease, kid around, and have fun. Most of the other people here do as well. Most stuff posted here isn't to be taken seriously. Although you are correct some of it does get a bit out of hand.
All the new topics in general of members telling us what to do and what not to do here is getting old. If a member has a problem with my comment I will tell them I was just kidding around. If they want to discuss a comment they can feel free to pm me and chat any time. But a mod nor a member here has never told me I acted out of line. One member snapped a bit until I told him I was just kidding and me and him are cool. Some people just have bad days and feel attacked.
In all honesty we are the calmest section on this board that I've seen. Everywhere else is 100x worse. We like to have fun here.

I have a problem with members making threads telling other members what to do, but I don't make a thread about it. Take offense? No, obviously though some people get offended easier than others.
My post today which has since been deleted was not meant to be trolling. In fact it was the first time i made a joke here at all.
I was trying to draw attention to a problem and it obviously worked.
Feel free to label me a troll if you wish but as far as i am concerned xda is not a trolling ground and i am far from it. Do i know how to push buttons? Yes but only when necessary.
Nrm and i did exchange a few cracks but as i said they were in jest.
So if my thread was seen as disruptive i apologize. I was just trying to help those like me who wanted to see a little change.

Same goes for you. You and I have no qualms and id love to see you jump in any future threads of mine (given they aren't development once i get there! LoL).
On one hand Im glad the mods cleaned up a bit. On the other i hope i didn't create a monster where no fun at all can be had. There needs to be a balance and a place. Only time will tell!
Regardless, as stated before i think our forum far surpasses others and Im glad to be here and can't wait to post some development! (a little trickier than i expected but Im slowly getting it)

This happened after I installed ICS Roms. The Genesis Rom was working just fine but would take about 2 days to send a picture, if it would even send. So I figured it was the ROM and switched to the every single other ICS and now this loud clicking noise will not go away. I can't hear my wife and she can't hear me, everything else works just fine, SMS, MMS, and so on.
So, I went back to stock, I downloaded the original NANDROID backup followed all the steps exactly and got it back to stock, the only thing I didnt do was to use NVflash to return the bootloader to stock, everything else should be stock.
Could this be a hardware issue? If so, what should I do, basically my wife wants a new phone, she is done with the G2x.
Thanks
From Owains dev thread:
Running the new baseband on your p999? than you'll need this fix for ROM side support!
flash this after the ROMhttp://owain.hopto.org/T-Mobile LG G2x (p999)/Domination/new_baseband.zip
It will fix that issue...

Someone needs to make a thread, title it something like "Popping noise when calling?????," have the body say, "And on 21y baseband?, flash owains zip!" With the zip attached... and everyone bump the thread 10 times a day (but no sticky because of how tapatalk displays threads).
Then MAYBE everyone and their mother, who refuse to do a search, can see that this has been asked 100+ times.
