can you take 5 seconds to look at the posts at the top of the thread before posting this crap?
really its posts like this that ruin xda
Here are my issues with this thread:
You already created a thread asking this exact same question last week.
You joined XDA 10 days ago, have 31 posts (as of right now), and have created 13 new threads. Its been a while since I was in algebra class, but the ration of posts:threads is definitely out of whack.
Going forward, please take a moment to review all available information before asking a question or opening a new thread. In addition to the forum search, you were prompted to review similar topics during the creation of each of the 13 threads you have amassed up to this point.
We are XDA Developers, not XDA Spoonfeeders. In the end, a little time spent looking will go a long way.
wow you guys are harsh... coming from a software engineering job myself for years now I remember why I couldn't stand working with developers...
thanks guys!

the above points are all sound
you clearly lack the ability to do any form of research on your own...and shouldnt need your hand held through the simplest of things
I agree with what everyone said here. Its not hard at all to look around. And the Charge forum doesn't even have many posts compared to SGS2 or the Thunderbolt. Not that hard at all.

You guys are jerks. Just give a straight answer.
Of course there's no roots or roms. Locked bootloader, duh. Doesn't take a genius to find that info

LOL...this thread is funny...but I think NotATreoFan said it best. Stop creating so many threads...if you already created a thread with a question that's not answered...just bump it, don't start a new one...this is a new forum and we would all like to keep it clean of useless threads.
Also, Dude if you don't like developers, keep your stock phone and don't come here to talk smack. These people put hours of work in to make EVERONE'S phone better. You don't like the manner in which it's done or the way the forum is handled, then leave and keep your stock ROM. Don't blatantly disregard the rules of the forum and expect help or a straight answer without getting some flack for it.
Sorry, I don't post much, but with jerks like this, I can't just not say something.

Buddy, There is "ONE" page for Charge Development, yes thats right ONE page with 14 threads... including this one, and your being a **** becuase you didnt take literally 15 seconds to glance at the thread titles?
you guys waste all this time making these crap comments... how about making a decision.. you can..
1.) answer the original question
2.) ignore the post completely
3.) LOCK the post and comment to 'search' the threads..
better than trying to beat somebody up in 'virtual' world..
this is what I mean by some people having nothing better to do but flame somebody for making a simple mistake.. yes as a newbie I don't quite understand all the 'terms' for the roms, etc.. so that's why I asked this basic question...
Moderator, please lock this thread or delete it.. I don't need anymore useless comments...
thanks
I love this thread! hahaha

you could have
1) looked for the words *root* and *rom* for 2 seconds and had ur questions answered
2) realized your mistake and taken your lumps
3) take note this happens to everyone who posts threads like this in development, you are not alone
also xda *shouldnt* be a n00b help-line....its a forum for development and intelligent discussion

I am trying to find the gingerbread rom for my husbands Galaxy S. Kind of new at this and will need directions if anyone can lead me in the right direction i'd be very greatful. Thanks in advance.
On a side note, 2.3 is Gingerbread. If you browse the Galaxy S forums, you would be able to find what you need. I went ahead and found the stock one for you.
Just a word of advise, if you are new to installing roms, I would recommend finding someone that knows what they are doing, or you could risk bricking his phone.
thanks although the links didn't show up he wants to be able to watch netflix on his phone of course if there is an easier way to allow him to do that i would be much happier with that. Im just not sure how to go about it i do understand that bricking is possible but i dont' have anyone to do it but me so i kind of stuck

Currently the only way to watch netflix on the gs4g is with Gingerbread 2.3.3.
There is a odin flashable rom here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1146145
Before flashing I would read this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1001759
It is not that difficult just make sure to read through the forum and use the search button.
Remember however at this time gingerbread is a leaked build, so it may have some bugs. Future releases will likely fix this but may take some time.
THANKS
Thank you so much for all the info i did flash our HD2's to android but mine is having some issues now and i went to the GS but the screen was to small for me being as i'm almost blind in a sense but i will try this and see if this is what he wants or wants to go back to HD2. Again thanks so much.
you have absolutely no clue what your'e talking about. Please take 1 minute to research next time, and you'll realize there are 2 gingerbread versions on this site.
the fact tha you don't e ven know that 2.3 is gingerbread means you shouldn't even be posting yet
She asked a question. Yes, she could have researched, but you don't have to be so rude about it; especially when corradokng addressed her issue as well as telling her to search next time.
Abie, let us know how it goes. I hope you guys get it working. Check out the netflix threads in the themes section

Honestly, that's one of the most unnecessary posts I've seen in a while.
You're supposed to be kind to new users, not rude.
People like you are why Krylon left XDA.
Oh ok, I'm sorry that there's a section in this forum called Android Development, and that the OP didn't bother to even click on that.
One click, and this thread wouldn't even n eed to exist

Come on man! Do you want to us to read your mind? Do you want to know how it's done? If it can be done? If it has been done? WTF do you want. Help us help you with more info. I would also suggest searching, I bet you can find the answer quite easily. Or google UOT Kitchen.

Looks like you spend as much time searching & researching as you did typing that post. Try the former and you'll find plenty (I just started a thread yesterday about a similar purpose YESTERDAY). Dont expect others to help you, if you dont try and help yourself
Uhh, I found several threads on how to do it, but everytime I'd flash the ZIP, or changed the Framework-Res.apk, the Battery Icon would look retarded. I don't need YOU bashing ME over the INTERNET<--- .. It's a Forum, don't complain because I made another thread.
In all fairness, your original post is a bit vague. Hard to know what you're really asking.

I wanted to know which battery mods were compatible with CM7
Can someone list any comprehensive changes between the two?

Obviously its easy for anyone to cite Wiki, but I was asking if there was anything they may have left out. Wiki is not always the most.reliable source for accuracy and comprehensive coverage pertaining to detail sometimes.

You can't get on xda ask how something is or what's better from us. Because those of us that do flash and venture out find out on our own. This entire post is pointless. Strong with you the newness is.

Its a little tough here on xda but its true that you need to try it out yourself and see what the difference is...personally between the 4.0.3 and 4.0.4 leaks we have, I noticed that 4.0.4 seems to be a lot smoother for me and battery drain seems a little better but I'm going to have to wait for a complete power cycle before I can confirm this

Not just in reply to this but the whole thing. I found this post looking for, well an answer the question that was initially asked. And very quickly pressed the back button on the browser and regoogled. I think the point is XDA is for a higher calibre level of experience and technical understanding and not for your day to day stuff you could read in a geek magazine, or Android Forums for example. Am I right? Just so I know not to make the mistake myself coz u guys get nasty

And I don't know how I never noticed this at the time, But you guys didn't either.
He never asked which was better, he asked what the major changes were,
Why would you guys suggest someone go through the steps required to install a new android version, instead of just answering their question............ Noobs aren't the problem, the arrogant behavior of the experienced members however..
Thanks for bringing back a year old + thread to let us know.

I disagree, the community itself was built on the backs of do it yourselfers who spent a lot of time and effort to learn and share development, sources, and ideas. The mentality of xda has changed from that of the do it yourselfer spitballing ideas on better code implementation or how to get things working to that of a help desk where it's no longer a community striving to improve and learn they just want things now. Most are content never knowing the effort involved in compiling a ROM or how to modify an apk, hell most can't even use adb to capture logs. The issue here is most certainly complacency amongst newer members. The mentality needs to change in order to see improvement, that's why you see these old timers so grumpy because honestly it's ridiculous the amount of easily searchable questions run through xda.
Sent from my XT1080 using Tapatalk
I've been thinking maybe a sister site is needed. XDAusers sounds about right. Send all the "I want it now and I won't search" types over that way. Unfortunately, it's not that simple. Some will help with devving, some will cry like a two year old when they get a bootloop. It takes all kinds. One thing I have noticed though. Those that can search and read are almost never heard from. Why? Because they search and read. A catch-22 at its finest.

Any Time
Today (10/27) I got notified of an OTA on my Skyrocket, and I haven't heard anything about one. I am running 4.0.4, rooted, with CWMR v5.5.0.4.
I did a nandroid backup, backed up all my apps with TB, and set SuperSU to survival mode. Then I let the OTA download, it installed and then it rebooted - into recovery. I continued the reboot from CWMR and when it finished the boot, the OTA said it was interrupted and couldn't finish. I cannot find a zip file on the phone anywhere to manually flash.
Tried this twice with the same result. What is going on? Where did this OTA come from anyway? What should I do? I think rebooting into recovery is interrupting the process somehow, but I am at a loss as to what to do now.
Any help is greatly appreciated!

So this post could've been left at one reply telling the guy that he can't install and should've looked in general. But no, feeling the need to further stomp the guy into the dirt was at the top of the priority list. If you saw someone already make the point, why not report and move on? Saves a lot more time.

I'm not really lazy, I just don't have all day to hang out on a forum like some other people. I told you that I did a quick search and when I couldn't find an answer, I asked a question - in the Q&A section.
Sorry I'm not an expert in everything and ruined your day by asking a question.
You could have just ignored my post, but I guess you needed to prove how superior you are. I'd looked at some of your posts and a lot are like the one above - no help, lots of ego.

In his defense I was able to find an answer to your question on Google fairly quickly, but then again I have no clue what you Googled.
Still, the first reply gave an answer to your question and crazy came in well after that was posted. He didn't have to, yet he went out of his way to make you feel like crap.

OTA Update can not be Done on Rooted phone. Not worth going back to stock for this Little Update. Wait for Jelly Bean....
He didn't make me feel like crap - complete strangers do not do that for me. It's just annoying because posts like that can drive people away.
However, I did feel bad after I realized that there were several other threads on the same topic. I usually make an effort to avoid duplicate posts, but in this case I was in something of a hurry. In any event, I found my answer - I'm not taking the update, it's not worth the effort to go back to stock recovery.
Thanks!

There's a good amount of normal people on here. If the site was how you describe it they shouldn't let anyone who isn't a developer join. "U NO MAKE ROMS OR KERNELS U NO WORTHY OF FORUM" is basically what's spewing from your mouth. Have whoever's in charge kick every single member off of the site if they're not a dev since that's the attitude you wanna have.
Otherwise, stop being such a damn bully and stop giving the site a bad rep. He made a mistake and got his answer. You clicked the thread, saw the answer and still decided to pummel him. That's called "being an asshole".
