This is just out of curiosity, not hating or demanding anything
Is it really just a who cares lets not moderate this place? I go to Optimus 2X forums and there's the cleanest I've seen in a while (Since the G1/MyTouch 3G days at least), bunch of threads that get closed after they are obviously a duplicate. In the past 25 minutes I've read 2-3 different threads about "not being bale to receive texts on ICS" between that; Draw Something, Temple Run, kernel/ICS roms/ recommendations threads, I can go on and on. Just curious as to why our thread is not "taken care of"??? It would help all of the getting off topic posts, the hatred on this specific forum, the immaturity! If the thread gets closed or moved into a already made similar thread, the person wouldn't get flamed nor would there be so much scolding and making this sub-forum look like a bunch a jerks (myself included) cause we are kinda fed up seeing the same thing over and over...
Not so much demanding it obviously, just curious.
Thanks for reading this Mods, any input is appreciated from anyone especially if you agree, so I don't like a complaining prick, lol...
Agree with you! I get excited to get on xda and see what people have posted but to see "what rom/kernel should I flash" "no sms or mms on ics " gets annoying. Someone has to clean this up a bit.

About time somebody said it. If I could suggest something...make the phrase 'What's the best ROM?' or any variations of it give a auto one week ban. I know it won't happen, but I'm just sayin'.

I agree, the g2x forums have become a boxing ring. Honestly, you can't say anything without a flame up your ass. It has changed me. I was never as hostile as this forum has made me. I had a guy that just told Doniqcc that he's blowing chunks because his rom is 403 not 404 call me the chump for calling him out. I'm gonna say it, I've been around XDA for almost 2 years. When the g2x first came out, there were a handful of a-holes. Then they disappeared for a year, now that CM9 is out, they're back. Then there's noobs that get promoted to beta testers and all of a sudden they are ruling EVERY THREAD. This here is talk, I've taken action and flame a certain someone every time they say something ignorant or blame the rom dev for their ignorance. It's kindergarten in our threads. Only we can clean up the mess. Have a weekly a-hole life banning. Even our devs are fighting, it's the climate in the threads. I don't have all the answers, nor do I claim to. I know one thing, something has to change. Thank you everyone, especially devs.

Could always look at a more mature forum with the same content.
Or I could find a new hobby... but let's get serious. What other forum would there be that has the same devs and all the same roms that are here, where the devs actually communicate??? Cause I doubt it. I love this forum been here since I had the G1 in '08, just wish they would clean up and take care of our thread like they do over on the Optimus 2X...

Prime example of why i don't post any of my work here anymore. And why TeamKang posts their work elsewhere. Xda has gone way downhill as a whole and there are better more user friendly forums to base work from. The xda senior mods have already stated in other threads if your not a "recognized developer" they could care less about you or what you think.

im no dev nor do i pretend to be one. im a noob from cali who loves android and what it stands for. This forum does have the reputation for being harsh to the common folk but the same people getting put down have some to take some of the blame. I mean, someone posts "whats the best rom/kernel" when a thread was just made not 20 mins ago with some feedback. if that person had scrolled down the page one click he or she would have seen it and read all the suggestions. This does tire people out because this section is filled with dumb posts like these. i dont flame anyone nor do i put down people down but it gets annoying. I vote for mt3g to become a mod for the g2x forum. Lets make it happen.
I think the harshness is MOSTLY within reason. It does get a little out of hand but the main problem is that people just refuse to click through post after post to find an answer. I was a complete noob and I still am by many standards but everything I learned was from fishing and reading and reading again. Granted I learned the importance of that coming from a jailbroken and unlocked iPhone. But its still common sense in my opinion.

People just need to learn to search and read... the more threads and forums you just read you start learning and picking up on stuff. Every forum you go in someone has an issue or a bug they think they just found and literally in most cases its a few posts above of the same issue and a fix over and over again. I remember the old days the win mobile days people actually read.. you didn't have this clutter and bloated threads of redundant non sense.. I'm not a dev by any means but I can see how annoying it must be for there rom thread to have 90 pages of which kernel and what they do better when they have there own thread for that very reason. Reading is fundamental people

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.
Sent from my ADR6400L using Tapatalk
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.)
I haven't seen this here. I'm wondering if anyone here knows about it. Either way, I hope it useful to someone. I have been using it for about a week. Its pretty stable. Go on over to http://rootzwiki.com/topic/18090-cyanogenmod9-for-o2x-and-g2x-selfkang3/ and check it out.
We all know about it. There are already 3 threads or something in General. There are also modded versions already in the dev section.
No need for a fourth thread.

Um, Kind of why I never write things here. People are dicks on this board. Um, I was just trying to be helpful. But um, thanks for the unnecessary comment. Um, I'm sure there is a mod around who's job it is to decide if a post should be deleted or not. Um, I am also sure they are very capable of doing said job as well. So Um, your suggestion to delete this thread, needs to be, um, deleted. Also, Um, thanks for pointing out that there is a reason why its not posted here and for using your super douchebag abilities to point out that there is a reason, but not actually informing me of the, um, reason. Um, I guess Ill just have to wait until someone with a greater ability to be a douche to explain in a more douchey way. Um.

Development section is for active developers of a ROM. Since we don't have RC participating here (he's on RootWiki) it doesn't belong on developer section.
The two developers that DO participate on XDA and have developed ICS based ROMs (HellFire and EagleBlood) have their own threads.
Thank you for participating.
Haha ok? Maybe you should read your post and compre it to mine to see who the bigger DB is. Im not the one posting in the dev section about unrelated topics. Yes it is a rom ....but not one that you compiled. I def didnt call you any names or over react to anything you posted. The thread that arcee created on rootz has been open a week. Dont you think if he wanted it here it would be? Its not people like me that gives xda a bad name.....its members like you sir that get pissed about comments and then start flaming

Don't get discouraged bro. It's a reason why you can't post it here. 1. In dev section you change log, screen shot, disclaimers and on top of that you must be dev or have the dev permission. (to open a thread). In the general section is where you should have made this thread and it would be called a information thread. And it's 1 or 2 already made for arcee ics.
Don't be disappointed it's the rules

You say these things when you yourself feel above the rules you have been called out before xda is a community and when you do what is expected you can gain a ton of knowledge but being lazy is not an excuse diggit you posted the same question twice so my guess is nobody messes with Bluetooth alot otherwise you would have gotten an answer but since there are no custom kernels for ics features are limited that's not an excuse for you to be silly and act like we are in the wrong all you new guys need to just chill and soak up what you can but use common sense too if we don't answer its for a reason 1 its been posted 2 we don't know

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?

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.

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?
G2x
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 agree with you completely and I don't see how he got that from your post...
Anyway... yes, this forum needs an active moderator, pretty desperately in fact.
If I can find that post that a moderator put about what xda is and is not... perfect post.
So... yeah.
Thanks both
@jHaste, I know someone that works there and I seriously have never been but all my friends go, I need to check the place out.

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.

I'm sorry, but i just can't take it anymore. Every morning for the past few weeks, I'd go on xda, anticipating some great new app, ROM, or just anything. And lately, there's been a lot new roms, which i love and thank the devs very much for. But with those roms came new questions and problems. I understood that people had simple questions to ask, and those questions were answered. But after a while, the forums just turned to...uh garbage. Everybody is asking the same questions that were answered time after time, not reading and posting the same things over and over. Also, everyone feels the need to be rude to others or argue. If it's something about a rom, fine. But if it's a post saying how you suck or if it's a repeated question, don't feed the fire by adding back or acknowledging that question. Just ignore it. I'm sorry for this long post,i just looked at the AOKP Q&A, and it's 40 pages. There's absolutely no reason for it to be that long, and most of it is repeated questions and people fighting with each other. This is the internet, you're never gonna see each other, so don't be offended. If I'm breaking any forum rules, again, I'm sorry. It just seems that is in style lately.

That's what the Q&A thread is for.. inquiries and discussions. The reason it is there is to leave the development threads clean of repetitive questions. I think you're just being a little dramatic. The search function isn't exactly top notch, and this is the internet.. so there will be people who are gonna be either lazy or rude, or both.
Oh, the drama!
Welcome to the internet.
I've been called every name in the book....its nothing new to me....I don't mind really.
People don't get me I'm just blunt and to the point...don't like it....well go ahead and call me names....just try calling me one I've never heard before and you just might get a thanks for it lol.....I don't bring my feelings here and neither should anyone else but hey this is the internet....get all kinds here.....its all good ....besides that's what the short bus is here for ......just take a seat and enjoy the ride :-D
Meltdown. llol
Nothing new man. Ask some that have been here for a long time. It's an ebb and flow and idiots come and go. Just roll with it.
Are you the pot calling the kettle black? How many worthless threads have you started in the VERY short time you have graced us with your presence?
30 F-IN threads since the end of March!

LOL. That's what I was thinking. Not that I'm any better, lol.
@Carl: I'm right there with you.
@OP: No one is forcing anyone to answer any questions or make posts. Just ignore the ones you don't want to answer, or pm them and kindly remind them of forum etiquette. Breathe, man.
Lately I lost the search option on the xda forum. Anyone else had this?
P.S
I'm not sarcastic, I really mean it.

Lol well I think lumin pointed that out because some of your thread's answers could of been found within other threads. Lol dude I don't even have 20 threads started lol

It's a never ending cycle. When development pics up, so does the acts of noob... I am guilty of it too. As for loosing the search button, it happens a lot. Erik and I was just discussing that the other night...lol
Bottom line, as long as the dev threads are clean, then it shouldn't really be a problem. When real issues come up, we dev's usually post them in our threads. As for the q&a's, we should focus to keep those clean as well, because there can be a lot of useful information post there as well.
Well i use xda on my phone, and for some reason, whenever i try to search, everything comes up as 0 results, so that's why i had to use those threads. But you know, you learn from your past mistakes. Now i reflash when something goes wrong in a ROM, and i read more. But, like i said, it's getting harder to read, when the whole forum is becoming cluttered

And now you know why some people were unpleasant with you.
You have to learn to filter out the stupid and ignore the riff raff.
Short bus. Tater face!

Regarding searching from the app, I don't. The search function sucks from the app, so I wait until I have time to search from my laptop, then start a thread if no results can be found.
Patience is key, its just a phone wait til you can properly attempt to help yourself before asking for assistance.

Almost all important info you will ever need are in the stickies. If you like something specific like i do bookmark it or subscribe to it. I can only imagine if you get a very popular phone that would be hell to ppl like you.
Thread closed. OP: If you see improper posts, report them. No need for another thread.
