Hi. I am new to XDA and have made only one post regarding the title of this post.
I have a new Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note 4 and I am locked out. My understanding is that I am locked out because of having made too many pattern attempts AFTER having shut of cell data and WiFi (I was traveling internationally and trying to conserve power and not incur accidental excessive data charges). My understanding is that my post may have been viewed 77 times but without reply. I have spoken to Verizon and Samsung but without success. I don't want to lose my data which was not backed up.
Is my question not posted correctly, too stupid, too difficult to solve, not appropriate......?? Any guidance would be appreciated.
Thank you.
Lew

Hello, I was just wondering if its possible to change my username. My current one is pretty long with random numbers and want to change it to something more simple. Can I change it? If so how? Thanks
Also it says I need to post 10+ posts so I am not considered a new member. I am guessing posting on here will count and will count as 1 post?
Yes your post on the XDA Assist Forum counts as one post. The threads below will answer your questions .

In regards to the following article: http://www.xda-developers.com/psa-g...ock-affects-many-5-x-roms/#comment-1976777656
I've earlier posted an anonymous suggestion to resolve the above matter by mentioning the use of Battery GSAM -> App -> Manage -> Disable 'Update Service' to prolong the battery life, which I'm now currently still observing if that could be a real help.
Based on current observation, the moment I've had the above done, my battery life stay stagnant at 89% from 10.35am till now 12.05 pm, without any further drastic drop. Hence, I've shared the above comment to XDA as part of the above article comment & hope that it will be a good help and benefit to the community.
However, I noticed that my submitted comment initially went into pending moderation, while later being removed without any reasoning.
I hope the moderator is not cancelling some of the idea / suggestion which could benefit the community ground, and brand it to their own advantage.

I have a bug/problem with Oblytile v0.9.9, However I cannot post in the obly tile thread due to the 10 post requirement. My issue with it is that tiles refuse to show up, at all. They get properly made (as in the files exist, etc) but they do not show at all.
Thanks,

Hi, thank you for using XDA Assist. The best thing you can do is ask legitimate questions and take this time to learn more about your device. Don't spam the threads. If a moderator notices they will bring your post count back to 0. I'm going to let this one slide, but don't do it again. Also, see if this helps you, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1899865
I get the overwhelming feeling that you read my Thread title, then replied, without even bothering to read the post body.
I do have a legitimate issue, and I did post a legitimate question. Unfortunately I am unable to provide more details because of the bug's nature. It does not give me debug information, does not show tiles with errors, it just simply does not show them at all.
I understand that with such a large community that a large percent of new users are either bots, spammers or idiots, however I like to think I am none of those. Of course I searched the oblytile thread for any indications of other people having my bug, and any possible fixes, though I came up nil, thus I had to create an account. In fact the more I read your reply the more sure I am that you did not even read my post body. This has nothing in relation to my phone. Thanks though.

Hello,
As @jd1639 pointed out spamming and swearing indicated by the "****" from your above post (which I deleted) will get the post deleted.
As he also suggested posting legitimate questions or helping others will get your post count up.
Thanks,

@TGiFallen,
The rules outlined for the site are pretty clear. The 10 post requirement is in place for spam and bot related reasons as you know.
Rather than attempt to circumvent the rules/system, you should take a moment to browse through the other Q&A threads for your device. You can post there and also in the General Sections for your device. Simple things such as talking about your device or joining in a conversation can rack that post count up pretty quick.
Going on a spam spree will only serve to be counter productive for you and get your IP banned so take heed of the warning signs put before you.
I will be closing this thread now as it no longer serves a purpose. I hope you understand the minimum standard set for each user on this site and I thank you in advance for your cooperation.

I have an app that my drivers use for signature and pickup info. It also comes with fleet tracking GPS. I use Note 2, 3 and 4 phones and this error comes up on 21 of 60 phones. You see the error when logged into the App server where it records everything the driver does with the app. Phones are all set to high accuracy. The error reads: "JavaScript timeout (enabled)(LA 280 RB) repeated 2 times". The number after LA changes all the time and is not consistent. I have gone to the app developer and for months they have been trying to figure it out with nothing. If someone could point me in the right direction it would be great. I came here because I have always gotten great info and learned a lot about swapping ROM's and rooting my personal phones. Thanks in advance and I hope this is in the appropriate area for asking for help.
Hello,
Welcome to XDA.
Ok, This is going to be an intricate process for you if you want to get the best help available here. It isn't going to be easy but I will start you off with as much assistance as I can to get you going in the right direction.
First, since you are having this issue on an array of devices, you will be best served if you post your questions in the forums for each different model of device you are troubleshooting, this will increase your chances of finding an answer, but!! PLEASE note that if you are going to be posting your questions in more than one forum here then you will have to keep your questions specific and related to the device you are posting about.
It is not usually permitted to make multiple posts everywhere on XDA for the same issue but if you keep your questions varied so that each question is specific to the forum you are posting in then you won't be creating an issue or bringing unwanted attention on yourself. Our Forum Moderators keep a close eye out for multiple postings of the same issue and moderate the postings when they find them.
To find where to look/post for each different model you are working with, you will need need to use the "search all forums" search box at the top right of the page when viewing this forum in a mobile or PC browser. Type each model number there and when you run the search, it will give you links to different forums and threads for that model number. find the Q&A/help forum for each model. post your issue and look through different threads there, maybe you will find help and answers. Remember, doing this for each model number will increase your odds, you will probably be making a lot of posts on this journey, just keep them focused on where you are posting.
In addition to the posts you will make in each devices' forum, I will link you to some threads where the helpful members are knowledgeable of many devices, issues and operating systems.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/help
and
http://forum.xda-developers.com/general/help
The experts in those two threads may be able to help, on top of the posts you'll make in each devices' forum. Post in each forum about details of the devices and post questions about the apps and GPS in the two threads I linked. Good luck.
