Hi all, I'm Rolf, and have been appointed as the Forum Specific Moderator for the HTC Espresso forums.
I'm looking for your opinions on how things are going in here, and if there is anything I can do to help ensure that everything is kept tidy and in the right place.
So far I have moved around 30 threads from the Development section to Q&A. As there are a fair number of postings here, this is a work in process! I have also deleted a number of trolling/argumentative posts in the General forum.
I'd just like to take this opportunity to remind everyone that if you are going to post a new thread, please think first about where it should go, and please treat other members with respect.
Please feel free to post in this thread if you are having any forum related issues, or PM me if you prefer. If I can't deal with your problem it will be escalated for a Senior Moderator to deal with.
Remember this is your forum, and we all need to do our bit to keep it clean, tidy, and productive.
This thread is NOT for people to complain about a post that has been moved or posted in the wrong place. If you think your post has been moved in error please PM me.
Thanks for reading this and I look forward to receiving your feedback.
Gratsy!
My thoughts are.... well, i've been thinking....
i mean, what was in my mind was....
oh what the hey, we need more themes for Espresso. I got them all from the t-mobile download site, but i need more!
This has nothing to do with anything does it.
Anyways, good job on the clean up! I've noticed that.

No, I'm a Desire owner. I'm not really here to answer device specific questions anyway, more to help keep things tidy and help members out where possible with forum related queries.
I already have knowledge of Android, and will try to keep up to speed with the Slide development.
I think the information is pretty well organized with the "rom bible" and what not but when it got to the rooting process I got kind of lost. Ive only done the G1 like a dosin times before this one so maybe im just used to it but I like the way it seemed like the g1 thread was layed out, but that it self seems like on a rom by rom basis..
Anyway I get lost all the time and I rooted/flashed my phone just fine using the site. So Thankyou!!

This you should ask in a warez forum, not here.
Hey, I thought my piece of useless sarcasm was a pretty strong attempt!
An "I don't know" would have been sufficient.
Also, I will drop the subject now Mr Policeman.
There is no need to ad another post with "I don't know" in it as another attempt at humour.
If either of you have the power to lock this thread, please do so.

I use an emulator called finalburn. It emulates most Capcom and Neo-Geo
Arcade games flawlessly, and its free.
Im using it on my 8525/wm6 and it runs & looks great
Here is the software

Here are the roms "games"

I can not believe a thread about warez could last so long omg beyond closing a thread imo i think a ban or two for a couple of days would be more like it.
Please do not talk about any warez or stealing software on a developement site. Its so desrespectfull seriously. There are plenty of game sites forums for ppc's. This thread was started in the wrong place and has references to warez!
Im no one here at this site and anyone that would go against a sites specific rules is no one as well. I think you owe some people an apology especially Flar and vijay555 as this is a slap in the face.
Please don't warez Posted By: vijay555 On 20-06-2007 07:29 AM
You may have read that the owner of WebIS posted an open letter to the community not to use warez.
Have a read! I'm quoting and linking to the original.
Piracy is a huge issue for the software industry, but to be quite honest its nowhere near as huge as what the RIAA and MPAA and SBA make...
wow i got one good reply to this post the rest are a bunch of babbling idiots talkin nonsense about warez and drunk people thanks guys.

LOL! Well it could be 'cos you posted in the Hermes Upgrade forum and games aren't really an "upgrade"
As for the warez stuff - as a lot of people here are (in some way or another) spend a long time dreaming/developing/actually making great stuff for PPC's for very little gain - warez that take the small amount of revenue from the genuine developers who work the PPC platform are generally frowned upon.
If you want lots of new stuff in the future, and support and development of the Pocket PC platform then please support the developers and pay for your software - especially as some of the really good stuff is at shareware prices!
Guys, seriously. As many sensible members have written above, this board does not support piracy.
Think about it - a lot of members on this board are developers, coders. Whether they sell or give their work away, the stuff doesn't write itself. I've just spent two weeks, two weeks, trying to draw an ellipse. I see elliptical arcs in my sleep. I think in beziers. When I'm done, you'll steal my code and reward me by making my children go hungry. Thanks in advance! Mi casa su casa. Tell me when your wife's feeling frisky and I'll come and return the favour.
Frankly, I don't care what you do on other sites, just don't bring your bad habits to this forum. We don't serve your kind here.
Requesting warez, and providing warez will get you warned or banned by me, depending on my time of the month. Other mods/admins might react differently. But take a hint from the vast majority of your fellow members: we don't like piracy on this board.

i hope that piracy thing wasnt on me. i said nothing about free games i just wanted some help in my search for some games. and i didnt mean to get everyones panties in a bundle. im somewhat new to the ppc world and was looking for help. so far this forum has been really helpfull with general info and some upgrades. it made my 8125 the coolest thing ever. which is why i now have the hermes and back on the forum. thank you guys for the info. i do some research in other threads.
dont worry about it, just take the time to make sure that you take the time to search before starting a new thread and then take the time to make sure you if you need to open a new thread that you create it in the correct forum. This is not really a general ppc forum but it would have been best to post a thread of this nature in an off topic forum or general forum. Not a device specific, upgrading forum. First off games can be used on many devices running the same platform (os) and are definately not considered an upgrade.
The warez is not on you just take the time to search for topics before creating new threads.

Hi forum.
I have been thinking about a thing.
As the hardware and software to some extention is similar in many phone brands, is there then some kind of a combined XDA effort to do the different tasks ??
It would be a shame if there over at eg. HTC Legend is sitting 200 NAND experts, or at Samsung S is 25 bootloader specialists.
Or if the best DES-crackers in the world only are reading HTC Desire HD.
So my question is:
Is there at XDA some kind of a combined effort, some form of sharing information?
Perhaps the XDA-Moderators could set up such a system if it is not here allready.
A system for us to combine the knowledgement of all devs here at xda...
So in fact mutch MUTCH more than you, who only use your time in the forum to play police...!
- we actually have people to do that, and they are doing it fine without you...

Post What Where:
General - general technical discussion items, news, anything else that does not fit into the other fora categories.
Q&A (Questions and Answers) - all questions, irrespective of type, get posted in here whether they be theme related, accessory related, technical, etc.
Accessories - any items to do with components and/or accessories relating to your device.
Rom Development - only meant for very advanced technical discussion directly related to ROM development activity and the delivery of actual ROMs and ROM components ONLY. Nothing else goes in here.
Themes & Apps - anything to do directly with the development of themes and/or applications. Nothing else goes in here.
MOD EDIT: BEFORE POSTING ANY THREAD IN THE DEVELOPMENT SECTION, PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING:
If you have developed a ROM, or are working with others to do so, the development forum is somewhere to discuss and share ideas, post useful feedback and logs or crash dumps, and to discuss a common goal developers are trying to achieve.
It is NOT the place to post your question because it gets higher traffic, or because more experienced users frequent it. Doing this just annoys those who are working on the device, and drives them away. Developers don't want to wade through 20 threads of "Help me urgently" to find their threads for porting and fixing camera issues etc. Similarly, if a thread is designated as discussion for developers say, porting a camera fix, please do not post in there asking "When will it be ready?", "Can I flash this yet?" etc. This is both completely disrespectful to those working on the project (you evidently haven't read the important posts in the thread), and also is making it harder for developers to find comments from other developers or testers when required.

Pretty sure x10 user is correct. I can't see that you are actually developing any software to improve our phones. And as to him playing police, get over it obviously you dont like being corrected. X10 user may be a little blunt with people these days, but when you have to keep saying the same thing over and over to different people it gets old. He may not be a mod, but this is the sort of self policing this forum needs to get organised.

Alright smartass, read the rules. But since it looks like you can't read, watch the video in the first reply.
First, This is the wrong section, it's a question which goes to Q&A.
Secondly, SEARCH! You're not the first re**** who posted this, there are actually other people like you out there!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/search.php?searchid=101123576
Well... Let me ask one question... What answers did you expect
A list of 84 ROMs you could possibly flash onto your SGS2?
You ask 30 different people the question which ROM they like best, you get at least 20 different answers.
So, just read through all the [ROM] posts in this forum and find the one that is best for you. Everybody likes different aspects of a ROM.
If you have a question to a specific one, well... It's the same thing again. Search the respective thread and if you don't find anything useful, post it (But NOT as a whole new thread, please...)
cheers Barratas, good answer
@bruflut is it? F u
Bwhahah.
I don't give a **** of he has 500 posts. Reading is reading and common sense, which he lacks, should be used.
Ask yourself, does my question help development of the SGSII. No.
So one with a little common sense would not have posted. But since you lack that ability, you get belittled.

There's just one thing striking me again... IF we had a periodically updated list of all maintained Custom ROMs, the development forum would be a LOT easier to overlook!
It's kinda hard for someone who starts reading the development forum NOW after months of posts!
Maybe if we could find a mod that is kind enough to make a sticky Custom ROM list... That would prevent newer users from starting threads like this one and our more experienced users from ripping their hair out because they feel horrible about those threads...

that was meant to tease them even further but no seriously is ridiculous, all these threads about htc one x, sgs3, to buy the note now or wait...we all know android phones come out every week there will always be a new better once 1 week after you buy yours+I dont really think somebody will decide to buy a phone just based on what xda members tell him but whatever
With all due respect, I posted the thread because I do value your opinion. I have been a member of XDA since 2009 and I can proudly say that the forums have people that do try and help out others. I would do it. Since I value the opinion of people at XDA, why post it on twitter or facebook where most likely one out of 100s will have the phone? What is the point? I posted my link in the general topics where GENERAL things are to be posted - consider it chatting but in a more structured way. To all you people that joined just a few weeks ago, you should not even comment since you haven`t even been here long enough to comment on why there are certain posts in the forum.

With all due respect, I posted the thread because I do value your opinion. I have been a member of XDA since 2009 and I can proudly say that the forums have people that do try and help out others. I would do it. Since I value the opinion of people at XDA, why post it on twitter or facebook where most likely one out of 100s will have the phone? What is the point? I posted my link in the general topics where GENERAL things are to be posted - consider it chatting but in a more structured way. To all you people that joined just a few weeks ago, you should not even comment since you haven`t even been here long enough to comment on why there are certain posts in the forum.

You seem friendly enough so i don't know where the instant flaming seems to come from.. Either way, here's some advice : this is the Samsung Galaxy Note forum.. Therefore asking about which phone to get is going to have an obvious answer. Try a more generalized forum.

Is it time to lock this thread yet?
The only thing worst than people making pointless obvious answer threads is people making threads complaining about those people.

Actually, it's only you that does not care. The purpose of the forum is for information. Information from other members whether or not it is personal or a link to something on the web.
I am looking for a new phone now and I am interested in the Note. Unfortunately I do not know anyone with one, so I ask here what people think of it.
Their opinions are a valuable part of this community and have helped in my decision. They didn't make the decision for me, but they did help me in making up my mind.

You should get the Note! Its a fantastic phone with great versatility. I came over from iPhone a few months ago, and I can't believe how much better this device is. I just rooted and flashed a ICS rom, and its great! You won't be disappointed.

I agree with your well put statement 100%
Other peoples opinions don't make or break mine, but it's good to hear feedback on an expensive device before purchasing. really the OP got flamed right off the bat for no good reason, it was a simple harmless question: and if you didn't like the Queston it's as easy as not responding to the thread then.

What a useless thread to let people know the op himself/herself is a jerk and don't care about it.
I wish I asked about how poor battery life is and how often the system force crashes before I purchased it.
I HOPE NEW COMERS DON'T GET THE WRONG IMPRESSION OF HOW XDA FOLKS ARE BY READING THE OP'S UTTERED ****.
USELESS OP
Hey I've never bought a phone on launch and was wondering how long it takes for people or groups to make some custom ROMs and when we can expect them roughly?
As long as it takes. It's generally considered rude to ask this question.
Call 877 Roms now.

I've never owned a Google device....I know Samsungs took forever, and then the fanboys would get pissed saying the Samsung was perfect there was no need for custom ROMs.
However long it takes; I can't wait to play!

Affirmative, you can! However, only as long as your question or more generally your post is in line and complies with the XDA Forum Rules, to which you agreed to adhere when you registered on this private website a few days ago. I'm assuming you thoroughly read them at that time.
As a new user I like to draw your attention also to the guidances that are stuck at top of every forum and supposed to be read prior to posting.
Last but not least: Welcome to XDA! I hope you'll always get the support you require.
P.S. I've subscribed to this thread to monitor that it doesn't derail especially from the requirements of rule no. 2 about member conduct.

Seems like an awful lot to read I follow the general rules expected everywhere from reasonable people

I'm also absolutely convinced to follow the general rules our parents educated us about behaviour, language and conduct will always be a perfect guideline wherever we have social interactions or exchange of information.
However, we all know that these "general rules" aren't sufficient in real life, be it a society or community, be it a private website like XDA. Therefore the general rules or even universal, fundamental rights are supplemented laws etc. or in case of XDA by the XDA Forum Rules that I've above linked. We don't want XDA to become like one of the well known and famous social media platforms, and we want our members to talk to and to approach each other with respect.
For this reason, we clearly enforce our forum rules. We do not censor on XDA, we like and encourage vivid discussions and exchange of knowledge, experience and information but we moderators benchmark ourselves against the forum rules. If your post or thread gets deleted, if you become friendly warned or formally infracted, if your account gets temporarily or permanently banned you can be sure you have violated (in the latter cases repeatedly) the forum rules. For this reason, it might be worth to read them even if it appears a lot to read.
Allow me a personal, probably off-topic remark: If we weren't reading, if we weren't searching for knowledge and information, if we didn't consolidate all the information we've read and found during our searches, how could we ever progress? My personal recommendation to everybody is always: To read, read, and read if you want to evolve. I'm pretty mature as some other people would say but my experience is also that if you need support or assistance by others it's quite often only provided if you show somehow that you already tried to solve the problem yourself i.e. e.g. you thoroughly search and have read a lot.
I agree with the read, read, read.
If you do not read and understand before modding your device. You can look forward to a big head ache.

Ahhh, the HD2. That was my favorite phone of all time. Great hardware and the first / only phone I know of where it was possible to install a completely different OS and have it work perfectly. (Phone came with Windows Phone but was much better with Android.) I loved it so much I think I still have it in a drawer somewhere along with my Palm Pre.
