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

I'll do my best to help in this. I'd love to see the old XDA again.
This should just get pinned
Great job Bro! Very needed thread IMHO.
I'm out of thanks for today. This is all useful information. Thanks :beer:

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.

forget pinning it.. this should be the first thing you see in like, 48 point font, obnoxious colors, when you open the forum.
Would flashing one of the skyrocket 4.0.4 be worth while? Obviously would flash Hercules kernel and rotation/build prop fix.
simple solution, try it. Everyone's opinion is going to vary, so I highly suggest u form your own. Good luck.
Just looking for some feedback from people that have been using latest ICS update
If your looking for a best rom thread our mods won't allow it and I will report it just test for yourself
Sent from my SGH-I727 using Tapatalk 2
Angry much ^^^ do you know how to read? I'm asking about general opinion of 4.0.4 vs our 4.0.3 ICS. I've been around xda long enough pal. I know how things work. Why don't you take your 1 1/2 months on xda and the 1/10th of my posts and contributions and go bother someone else!
Second account bro sorry
And your thanks are a bit low you must suck as a member for that many posts

Regardless, your reading skills suck. Never asked for the best ROM. Why do you have a second account? Perma-banned? Tool! This is the reason devs leave. Thanks, have a nice day!

So thread locked for a few reasons. Asking for a good rom is relevant to every one person and what one thinks is good doesn't mean you will like it. Second wrong section. And since you know how to port it there is no reason for this thread.
Hey just wondering if anyone knows when the cm10 camera will get the option to save to external? It seems like such a simple but useful option that they just left out which was on cm9 and i'm sure they will eventually include.

Do you ever do anything besides troll these threads to hunt for people posting in the wrong category? Seriously, I've never seen any comment you've made on XDA that adds value or benefit to any discussion. He should post in a CM thread with 1,000 replies so his question can get buried under half a dozen ongoing discussions in the thread? OP had a legitimate question so he posted in Q&A. Get a life bro.

This was asked on my thread and the best answer is: it's up to you. If it's important to you, see if you can hack it out. Or try to get someone to work on it for you. And I used to give **** to illnevertell, who coincidentally is someone I'd call a friend now. Does he troll? yeah. Could it be called annoying to some? Sure, but he has a point and his hearts in the right place. As I've mentioned before, its like being a government employee; when you deal with assholes and morons all day long, you begin to think that everybody is one. Question after question that could be handled without wasting anyone's time gets annoying as well. I actually saw a thread begun a while back for a douche mad at XDA and everyone in it because the idiot asked a dumb question in a dumber way and got his panties all bunched up at some ribbing about it. I believe it was something to the effect of "I am going to tell everyone I know on the net to stay away from XDA". Seriously? This is supposed to be a learning and sharing forum, not ****ing tech support for morons who want a flashy phone without doing anything to earn it. Go on ****ing Craigslist and find one of those assholes who sell ROM flashing, ok?
**This was not meant for the OP, just got off on a little rant of my own. Illnevertell can be harsh, but that doesn't make him wrong.
So I just have a simple question and would appreciate some feedback on the subject as the title implies, I installed AOKP Rom onto my Skyrocket and am loving it super fast and responsive. Only thing is there isn't a stock music player, so whats up with that?
Reported one it's a question two why not post in aokp thread

Because I tried to but Iam not allowed to post on the thread that they are discussing bugs and such from the rom. So I decided to post in the general forum, Im new just ran into a bug and posted a question.
So post in q&a where questions go let's use our brains maybe read the rules

Why not go to the market and DL I had to on my ROM install?

God you condescending little kid. Just politely answer his question and remind him to post in the Q/A section next time. Who the hell would listen/want to please a snotty little **** like you. You even suggested a thread that he shouldn't post in. Your spam is more annoying than people who don't follow the rules. OH, and guess what? Acting like you are is against the rules too.
Anyway
Answer: There just isn't, because there's plenty of apps to download from the Play Store. Google Music is what I use. He's an ass, but he's right by the way. Try to post questions in the proper section.
Yea basically reporting is awesome, do it to your hearts content, as it can only help the community... but when you report and then post everytime just trying to get some emotional response out of someone, your just a worthless troll... drama queens need to get the **** out.
Ever consider I have a reason like keeping track its hard to know what I have reported if I don't I've double reported a few times instead I have a tracking method

Locked, wrong section and nothing but trolling and flaming.
Not sure exactly what this is. I just found it submitted to DevHost. It's the new radio for the skyrocket. just the radio. I looked around, didn't see anywhere else to get just the radio to flash over UCLF6. Note: This is not mine, And it has not been tested.

Why did you open a thread with something you're "not sure what it is" in Developers section?
Let's see what it is. This is a sticky INDEX thread in this forum:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1785999
Look under "RADIOS/MODEMS", second line.
You shouldn't share a dangerous for flashing stuff like modem build, untested. Reported.

You should stop posting you have no idea what you're doing.
Also, we already have the radio and its in a sticky thread and a few other places. You don't bother to read or search though.

I can think of 3 reasons:
1) It's already posted in the sticky in this forum
2) I'm wary on anyone posting something in the Dev section and announcing that it's completely untested. There are exceptions, but those are usually reserved for known devs (in my mind)
3) There was no work done by the OP. He found something on dev-host and just posted it here (see #1).

And this is why people don't post anything. Because people make them feel dumb about it. Then people see that and don't want to contribute. I feel bad for u man. At least u tried! I agree with some, should have looked harder. Next time when u find something that u think no one has seen. Search for it on Google. That's what I do...
Cut the guy a break, he was trying to help. It is kinda intimidating being on these message boards with over a million people. Being one amongst millions is tough and he wanted to post what he thought was a discovery. He did apologize. His post is no less important than the ones bashing his post. Let's stay on topic here. Op please ask a mod to close this and let's move on.

Instead of arguing shouldn't we give our opinion how good is this modem. A lot people throughout the forum have concerns regarding the performance on the ROMs, which I think it has play fairly well in most of the ROMs I have tried.

That's not a bad idea. I know, I've been running it for a few days. I seem to get a bit better service then I did when I used UCLF6 and it like switches to WiFi a tad faster, if that's any correlation.
