where are all the mods right now... new members should have to go thru tutorials and pass some sort of test before being allowed membership... It seems like this kaiser rom development forum is the new general discussion
Beside the wallpaper can't change, I can use the pone as usual. Thanks

Mods have a life and are volunteers, and as such just can't police the forum constantly. I would recommend that you don't browse the forum on the weekend if you don't want to see so many noob posts. Seems like they come out in force on the weekends, and usually the mods are off trying to have a weekend. These things have been said 1000 times before. It is frustrating, i know that of course, but these posts really have little value. If you don't have anything to actually contribute through the posts then it's best if we just don't say anything.
@ OP
Questions like this should be posted in an preexisting thread, either the rom you are using, or wherever you got your themes from, there could even be a thread on the topic already...i have not looked, but doing so helps to reduce the clutter. Plus it's a forum rule.

MOD EDIT: Easy on the CAPS, and easy on the inflammatory posts. Oh And Please, Play Nice or Not at all. ~Jimmy
Yesterday, i've installed these 2 apps in hopes of improving my battery life on my HTC Touch Pro. However, not only did both not work or has no effect, but it also screwed up my fone, VERY BADLY.
These are the apps:
http://mobile.dlugosz.net.pl/Products/BatteryGuard/tabid/59/Default.aspx
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=478519
I'm not saying they're crap or anything, but they just don't work for me and screwed up my fone so i'm just posting this as a warning for you guys. Also, i hope someone has a solution to this, coz right now my only solution is to do a hard reset.
The problems i get is that the screen rotation doesn't work anymore when i slide out the hardware keyboard, also when i press the power button, it doesn't turn the screen off. I haven't changed the function that the power on button is assigned to, so by default it should turn the screen off and i like it so i kept it that way. But now, it doesn't turn off.
What's worse, is that shutdown and soft reset don't work at all, i have to pull out the battery to turn it off.
And even worse, it drained my battery from 100% to about 10% in less than 2 hours when i have everything off. It pissed me off so bad. I dunno if anyone else have the same problem as me but for those of you who haven't tried it yet, be warned.
And btw, i'm using a HTC Touch Pro GSM version so it works with the programs as stated in the instructions in those topics.
What phone are you using?
This is what this app has to say:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=478519
NOTICE: This software is only for the GSM variants of these devices: MSM7xxx based devices, Samsung i900 Omnia, Samsung i780 !!
NOTICE: This is a pre-alpha testing version. It's not nearly close to ready for full-time use. This topic is primarily to discuss possibilities... Code is proof-of-concept stage. You should NOT run this app fulltime!
This might have been the source of your problems.
Please learn to read be4 u post, I stated my phone model at the start and end of the sentence, dunno how u could've missed that....but i'll say it again, i'm using HTC Touch Pro GSM version.
And in the topic, it said this, u didn't read properly again.
Device list
This program is known to work on, GSM versions only:
HTC Touch Cruise (Polaris)
HTC TyTN II (Kaiser)
HTC Touch Diamond
HTC Touch Pro (Raphael)
HTC Touch HD
HTC Touch Diamond II (Topaz)
HTC Touch Pro II (Rhodium)
Samsung i780
Samsung Omnia
Sony Ericsson Xperia X1
Palm Treo Pro

So it's not JUST for the Samsung Omnia or i780......
DUDE?!
dude, come on what is it with you?
I appreciate your not saying the apps crap but seriously why start a thread to warn people about what the app did to your phone?
Yes that is slagging of the app and putting the guy who created this down- chainfire works his ****ing ass off- creating stuff and giving back to the community. It's people like him that keep this community going, and have you seen the donation stars next to his name????
Threads like this will just get people like chainfire and other to say "**** it" why bother.
Man the right way to go about this would have been to post on that thread, what it did to your device. help him learn so he can better his device application - that post is on the general forum, what you think they are going to come to this thread to read you winge?
an a closing note- anything you flash/install/copy onto/throw at your device has a chance of crashing it, or even bricking it. If you cant be asked doing a hard reset if something goes wrong, go buy an iphone! they never crash or bump out..............
what you should do is go onto that thread and thank him for his hard work....
il even go and do it.
i think the Raphael uses less battery on 3G standby than 2G standby... just my usage so far indicates that

Because posting a reply in a topic that has over 50 pages is just tedious and annoying. People won't read every page and reply to the questions and it's important problems/bugs that i experienced that should be best post in a new topic to let people know. I never said his apps are crap, i'm just posting this as a warning to let others know as not everyone will read through every page of his topic, and not everything posted in his topic are related to bugs/problems either, some are just suggestions etc.
It's like trying to go through pages after pages of replies in the Rom Development topics, it's very annoying. I find a lot of questions unanswered in those topics coz after just 1 hour or so, new replies are added and the page is then updated up to 4 pages more and it's just plain annoying. Nobody answers all the questions in topics like that and it's just pointless.
And as a matter of fact, i've installed heaps of stuff on my fone and this is the first app to cause this problem. Even the chinese fonts etc didn't cause me any problems, and they're the most easiest ways to brick a fone.
Lastly, I did not in anyway try to "slag" the app or disrespect the creator of w/e, i appreciate his work and i get that heaps of ppl support him etc etc, but i'm merely posting this problem just to warn ppl, as well as hoping for a solution because it's quicker to get responds in a new topic anyway.
But i already got it solved by updating to a new rom, and luckily, the Energy Rom was updated 2 days ago so i needed the update anyway.
Did u notice the first line of the post?
Note this is a BETA version and will have issues.
Also, did you search that thread for your issues? maybe someone else has experienced them and found solutions.
Maybe your issues are caused by a combination of apps that you have installed making it a rare case.
I'm just saying its not right to go and blast these apps when there are a bunch of people using them and not experiencing the problems your having.
I support "chaoscreater"
I support "chaoscreater" because of what he answered:
- He did not post it on a thread that is too long and probably the message will not get to who it was supposed to go to .... US USERS that COULD end up BRICKING OUR phones and loosing our time.
- So this way people can be aware through a BETTER WARNING.
- Last ....... "chaoscreater" you should post it in the thread so the developer can work it and improved it.
So no harm, just he missed to mention if he did or did not post it in the APP thread.
Do not bug him for being responsible.
Uhh! and THANK YOU FOR THE WARNING.
Something does need to be done about the dev threads.
But what?... There must be some sort of cutoff...
thanks (people that contribute?)
posts (people that just post alot)
Combination of thanks and posts?
OP approval (make more work for the op)
Mod approval (make more work for the mod)
Number of searches
So what do you do.....
Set the dev thread to read only unless approved (possibility but it makes more work for some)
Block access completly - Gotta earn your stripes at the mods discretion
Some sort of tiered access levels. Earned or given by mods (keep in mind Dev's do just pop in and say "Hey i was bored on saturday so i started to port ICS to my harmony remote control. It boots and i'm stuck trying to get x working. Got any ideas?")
I'm sure alot of the mods do get pissed when someone posts "**** i borked my phone (or my tab) help me" or " it wont boot" or any of the bazillion other common problems that could be solved by looking 2 posts up. I know i do....
Also on a side note tapatalk does not refresh automatically. So some stupid posts are due to that (guilty). Oh and hey i'm not claiming to be all high and mighty about my posts. When i bought my Transformer in november and spent like 3 months searching and searching and reading and reading and searching and reading. I only posted something when i actually had enough knowledge to ask a intelligent question. That being said I am not 16 with a cool new andrioid phone.
So ya .... What do you do.... People are people... Some thrive on conflict.... Some are stupid... Some are lazy.... Some are a pain in the ass... Some are helpful... Some are totally hilarious... Some love ponies... Some are insanely brilliant...
Do we need ALL these people posting in the Dev thread ..... NO....
(ps IMO XDA developers seems to me like a place to develop your knowledge.... just sayin)
I do like it here and i have no problems with any of the mods. Just up for a bit of a continuation of a closed thread.
What do you think is the best way to deal with this? (maybe some good will come of this)
(ps this is not a question thread this is a discussion opener)
I agree that there's a lot of stupid unintelligent questions from people who just havent done enough research and are too lazy. There's the 10 post rule (which I'm on the wrong side of currently) which helps to keep some of it out. I personally have been using xda for over a year and it has answered all my questions and I just recently made an account because I haven't needed to ask new questions.
p.s. i was a 16 year old with a new android phone.... lol
When using the tablet with the hdmi connected, videos and what not work full screen but the ui only works as 1/2 screen. The bottom half of the screen is blank on the tv and the tablet but still has the notification bar on the bottom. Does anyone know how to tell the ui, or know what directory are the files pertaining to the ui that i can remove this? This was an actual option on a rom i used once before on my gs2 that allowed you to basically hold the screen without affecting what your touching. Please keep this in this section if possible as i think devs would come across this post eaiser.

WOW. I normally don't like bashing people for posting in wrong section, but then usually people ask the thread to be moved if in the wrong place, but you went the other way.
"I know i'm posting where I shouldn't, but my question is more important than anyone elses, and I really want the smart people to read my question as they are trying to communicate with other devs about actual development in development section."
All i can say is WOW.
What the f*** is this post and reply about?
Weird s**t here I'm really confused...

Just somebody getting his/her behind slapped for deliberately posting in the wrong section, and even asking for it to remain there for a while because of the higher(-level) 'exposure'. Quite funny in my opinion, because:
a) the people in the Dev section frequent the other forums too;
b) the 'bashing' is rightful; and
c) the OP has been blanked out, but the reply quoted it -- it is still there for all to see.
After you've had a laugh, move on, nothing else to see. I do not expect the OP to post it again in the correct section (where this had been moved anyway).
Good day users and developers....
I am curious to know if someone has created a widget where you can with one touch enable and disable all location services??
I'm currently running stock but will be rooting soon .... just got the phone a month ago, came from an LG G2X.
If you could guide me to the right direction or tell me how moronic i am, i would greatly appreciate it... LOL
As always, you guys are awesome

This isn't exactly what you're looking for, but on Nova Launcher you can add a shortcut to Location access where you can easily switch it off. To do this you long press on home screen>Shortcuts>Settings shortcut>Location access and it will add a shortcut to your screen. It will take two clicks instead of one, but it's better than going all the way through the settings I guess.
Yup. That's so something that has always irritated me too. It's a great idea and would be good tied into the existing toggles.
