1) Use the search, if you can't find what you need goto step 2.
2) Create a thread but make sure you post in the right Section and since this is "Sapphire android development" you only post here if you got something to provide the development with if not then "general" is probably the right one! When you create a thread "in the right section" be sure you give all the information you can give when asking for help. Me for once don't wanna ask you 1001 question to be able to help you so always give all the info you can. In this case give us the info about your phone what kind of board it is 32A/B HBOOT and RADIO.
And just a heads up: if the wiki is to technical you should most probably not even get started on flashing anything into your mobile since you will probably just brick it if you don't know what you're doing!

sorta not true....when i first started i was scared as f*ck and thought for sure after my first rom flash that i had bricked my MT3G adn I'm a EE...we should welcome noob's with open arms, because their interest is what will propel android as a "fave" amongst consumers.
Ok, now after getting off my soap box, Mazlano, go to the following site..
1) www.theunlockr.com
2) STUDY www.theunlockr.com
that has all the base information in well concise format that will help you go from a stock magic to one that you can flash Roms.

at the threat of not wanting to sound angry, those comments are f*cking stupid.
1) its OUR right to go to any forum / thread / site we come across on teh internet
2) I simply passed along a site to a newbie where they could find concise information all in one spot with videos to getting them feeling comfie with unlocking their phone, thats what worked for me. ITS MY RIGHT to disseminate any information i choose
3) Grow the F*ck up. I am here because once i became comfie with the ins and outs of my phone, unlockr.com had nothing to offer me and i'm sure that the originator of this thread will find the same thing out.
I see why some of the devs get tired of coming here. Instead of helping someone out and leaving it be some of you trifling f&cks are out to berate and belittle others..leave it be...the guy is new...from one fresh noob to another i gave information that helped me. If you had information that could have helped him that would be concise on XDA that i don't know about, just offer the f*cking information and move on...

Comments were indeed stupid. The forementioned site is a good start for a
beginner. Easy and will get him ready for this forum. Let that site take the burden of rooting because this site can be overwhelming with too many opinions and choices and advices. oh... and menacing dickheads.

Yeah, I have to agree. Theunlockr helped my with its step-to-step tutorial to get the recovery img onto my magic - I found also several guides in the forum as well as I consulted the wiki, but the guide there (with video) is even understood by an idiot
Search, Google, Try if you're 99.99% sure of what you're doing. And have fun

are you serious?
Ok, I would have posted the unlockr also just because I was a noob just like the OP and any forum post where confusing. And the unlockr has hands on videos that tell you step by step. Who cares what site someone uses, and why would someone want to use XDA with members like you.

cause i try and help people here if you check my posts not direct them elsewhere
just looking after this place cause people can't read the rules on xda

thanks for the site buddy. and way to go looking out for noobs! ... and the other dude against advertising... this site is free isn't it? you dont have to pay to be a member or anything, so directing noobs to other sorces of info wont cost u a dime.
You can donate to the rom devs sure, but dont think they dont post their roms on other forums...
and btw, the unlockr really helpd!
and i speak from exp, when i say that the some of the high ranking members of xda tend to divert u off into another web of confusion rather than just help you.
saw it on the universal forum, saw it on the x1 forum. and here we are again! but its cool,,, its better than no help so i am greateful!

Availability of Official Firmwares for Atrix 2

I search the entire threads for Atrix 2 and i could not find something related to my inquiry so i decide to make a new thread (hope no problems will cause)
some of the old members they might know the problem i face very recently with my Atrix2 (yesterday because i was messing arround and trying to flash the Razr Rom into the Atrix ----Complete NooB), so i have a simple inquiry and i will appreciate it deeply if i could get a support on that.
i would like to know how many Signed Official Firmwares are Available for the Atrix2
as of now i manage to get the Chinese version(complete useless) and the US ATT version (best option but locked for ATT users only)
if in case something more is available can i request please to be uploaded it somewhere in here
i am not interested on customs Rom since the phone it self is very beautiful inside and outside.
Maybe this thread will be useful for other Atrix2 user too who might facing similar problems with me ( soft brick )
Thanks
George

This is posted in the wrong area, this belongs in the general section. This is also technically a duplicate post as MANY have asked this same question about official firmware, no matter which version.
MODs please move this to the general section.

Sorry i am not to good on Forums

Yes; anything that is development related, actual "hacks", ROMs, rooting, bootloader unlocks, etc. Go in the development section of the Atrix 2 forum, and and any questions, and requests and general talk of of things not really development related belong in the general section.
It might be a good idea to read the noob thread, and the rules.

Nope, but you might PM daywalker04, he is who got us our US version fxz. He will ask you to retrieve several files off your phone and install an upgrade program, that will give him a log file of what to look for.

Ask your question in the relevant forum. The development forum isn't for questions, even when they're about a ROM. You should read the Q&A and General forums for the phone you're having problems with and then post there if there is nothing relevant.

There's a thanks button for that. Thanks posts are discouraged as they just fill threads with the same thing and make useful info harder to find.

While I understand your point, I find it hard to be able to contribute constructively to threads where I have experience without getting those 10 posts out of the way. I will look around and see if there are other areas for me to get my post count up more constructively.

I was just making the point that posting "thanks" isn't constructive, which is why the thanks button was introduced. You only said you wanted to say thanks in a dev thread, which is why I pointed it out.
Glad to hear you'll get 10 posts constructively. It'll save the mods the time of having to delete redundant posts
Good luck.
Edit: I see you completely ignored me and created a totally new thread just to thank someone.

[Q] Kang Cyanogen ROM

I am confused. I cannot add a thread or email on the Kang Cyanogen mod because I haven't posted enough here. I cannot find the download for the ROM and have no idea what to do without being able to post on the thread. A rock and a hard place I believe it is called.:silly:

Thanks for the reply, but I tried that, which is how I have been downloading the ROM up until today. The 2012 10 01 ROM is not listed when you click I AGREE. The previous ones ares.
I can do the searches ok, I am not allowed to reply or start a new thread so can't ask Bruce 2728 if he took the ROM down or why I can't see it on the list of downloaded ROMs

And you are locked out of reading the thread too? I assume you must be because the answers to all your questions are in the most recent couple of pages. You certainly don't seem like the kind of horrible evil person who would choose not to read a thread before making new threads to ask questions that are answered repeatedly in an existing thread, so perhaps your account is broken since you can't read the thread. Anyway since you're clearly not that kind of a person I'll help you out.
The10/1 builds are only available on the goo mirror site for now until Bruce gets home and can upload them to the regular download site. The link to that goo mirror is given about 15 times in the last few pages of the thread.
Mabye you'll get lucky and your ability to read that thread will be fixed when you go back to find that link. I'm rooting for you! :good:

[CLOSED] TWRP blue line

you could have checked the only twrp thread on this sub. its in development. progress is slow but steady since the kind devs have things to do so the final build will be released when its ready to be released. for now, all we can do is used fastboot for flashing and other things. btw, the thread is HERE.

thanks for the information. sorry I don't generally ask questions.

Mate, wrong place to create a thread.

Yes I have been made aware of that. I don't think I have authority to move it.

A lot of dickish replies here.
