Can't post in the dev section, but could someone please explain this to me? - Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

There is a link out there to a video of someone using a Photon rom on an atrix in order to get landscape hdmi mirroring. Isn't there a dev who could take that code and make it so that we can flash just the code for mirroring on the atrix? The rom is unstable, but the landscape hdmi works just dandy. Apparently I am also not allowed to post links, so...

I font have enough posts to post the link...

So I will just make useless posts until I can...

YAY!

This whole ten post thing is silly, I have been lurking for a long time now... (two more until I can post in the stupid link in the actual hdmi thread...)

Sorry for this...

Last one...

I guess one more then...

You shouldn't crowd the dew thread with your questions. I keep it here and without the buffer
To answer your question the mirroring goes deeper than the devs can figure out at the moment. Something is different at the fundamental level of the photon is my understanding

UGH

Comical that a new user who finds this forum, hoping to get help with a development issue can't even post their question because they're new. The "admins" incorrectly think that this cuts down on spam and nonsense posts, but all it does is cause these new users to post enough garbage to get their post count up so that they can actually post what they want to post. So your plan has backfired.
Well that's one post...
Same boat as you. Just screwed up my nook 2E, and needed to post for a fix. Perhaps they should refine their policy - say, allow a dedicated forum/subsection just for this sort of thing?
Both of you have 10+ posts now. Was it that bad and difficult to get the posts?
I agree, i know what I'm doing, but still have to post in 10 threads to get the access i really want.

[Q] Sooo.. is there a root for 2.3.6 KK6?

Title says it all.. been looking and searching and reading and still I'm none the wiser. I believe there is, but it looks like the download links are dead. Are there any updated ones?
F.F.S!!!!!
/facepalm..

Just because you believe it doesn't make it so.
Last I checked, fileserve was still up and running and in addition, every release of my kernel is hosted directly from XDA, so those links are DEFINITELY working fine.
So you clearly didn't search much at all - there are AT LEAST two rooting avenues for UCKK6, BOTH of which are documented IN THE FAQ!
Wow. Listen guys, I'm sorry my search skills aren't as good as yours. Or maybe you spend a lot more time on here than I do, so you're able to follow the progress better. I'm sorry, really. I don't mean to inconvenience anybody. Just looking for some help, from what I thought was helpful community of people sharing information - that I'm having trouble finding.
Secondly, I found a thread with other 500 pages. SOrry, but I'm not reading that entire thing. That's the problem with shutting down people who post new threads about something. Threads get so large, information gets lost. Like I said, I was just asking for some help.
Entropy: I didn't see any links to fileserve, or any files hosted on XDA. I saw this thread after following a link in the FAQ: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1286432
but it has links to megaupload (obviously down), and multiupload which didn't seem to work.
Seriously, if it's too much trouble for anyone to point me in the right direction then I'm sorry for the inconvenience.
Have good days.

Then dont expect someone to hand you your answer if you're not willing to put forth effort yourself. And certainly dont expect to receive nice responses when you state that you wont read for yourself.
As already stated here, the FAQ has everything you need.

Nook Color/Tablet "extended USB" pinout?

Nook Tablet is known to have "extended USB" connector with bunch of extra pins in addition to standard microUSB's 5, and it seems it is the same (at least mechanically) as on Nook Color. Unfortunately, I wasn't able more specific information about the connect than this thread, and Novaports teardown picture which clearly (well, blurily) shows 17 pins, half of them apparently connected to something more interesting than power and ground.
So, is there updated information on this matter? I know folks here made hardware mods while cracking open the Tablet, so I don't believe it could escape their scrutiny. I don't suppose there's UART in there, but well, who knows, maybe charging LED is controlled by full-fledged GPIO for example ;-)
Hello , please read the rules before posting
Thread Locked/Deleted - This Is A Development Section, Not Q&A -READ BEFORE POSTING-
I agree about putting it in the right forum, but this could lead to some interesting development. I would like to know what the pinout is as well. I tried finding out what the pinout was for the evo shift some time back. I had an idea for a dock/case combo that would allow full use of the physical keyboard as well as docking inside a vehicle. I had no luck with finding the pinout, so that idea went into the scrap pile.
I hope a mod simply moves this to the right thread instead of locking or deleting it.

This. It's starting to get annoying with all of these "mods" that aren't actually mods.
I'm sorry if this was wrong place to post this, but this is indeed more of a development question, not a random newbie's one. I did my homework, but didn't find anything regarding Nook Tablet, so figured this is a worthy topic for device enablement, and I collected initial information and links to objective info in the first message.
My second idea was to catch attention of AdamOutler and other experienced developers.
Again, I'm sorry if with all this motivation it was still wrong to post here. And I understand the mods - XDA-Developers is a huge place, so without keeping it organized it would be havoc. But I hope there's difference between "How do I install Angry Birds?"/"How to replace back cover?" and "Let's collect all info on specific device enablement feature in one visible and easily found thread in the forum where interested people will likely look for it".
Just because it can lead to development doesn't mean it is. You can always ask a MOD to move it when it is appropriate.
If you don't like people stating the rules and asking you to follow them, then I would advise you follow them. You don't have to be a mod to ask people to do so.
There is a Q&A section now that is for people's questions.
Thread Closed​
The development section is not for questions, even if they are Dev related. Please post in the Q&A section. It is not my job to move threads around, you should post in the correct section.
Please dont get into a argument over the legitimacy of a threads location. Just use the report button and a moderator will act accordingly​

Updating Neo To ICS

MOD EDIT: full post will be made available soon.
I always thought that installing and using PC Companion is pretty straight forward, and that there is no need for instructions, but I guess I was wrong
I was checking this guys history earlier, trying to figure out if he was a spam poster or a 10-poster. Guess I was wrong on both counts, just someone trying to steal traffic from XDA. I would suggest reporting to your forum's mod and let them figure out whether to close it down or to simply let everyone add him to the ignore list until he figures it out.
lol, come on guys, give em a little credit, he tried his best
He is new
He is trying HIS best
grow up!!!
grow up dude ... we are not childs..
I don't believe it is within the rules to post the first couple steps here as a teaser and then the rest on a site other than XDA. It is not about the guy trying or not, and frankly I challenge you to read his first 10 posts and tell me how hard he was trying, but about how things work on XDA. It is perfectly OK to post your blogsite address in your Sig or somewhere, but it is NOT ok to do it in the fashion he has done it above. This needs to be reported if he doesn't change it. Sorry.
Edit: No changes, reported.

HTC DNA post OTA update bootloader unlock

Hello all, sorry if this is a redundant thread, however I have been searching and haven't found anything in regards to unlocking the bootloader after big red's update.

It hasn't been done. This should also be in Q&A or General not Android development.
This has been answered dozens of time someone plz lock the thread

Send your phone off to have it it unlocked and s off with JTAG process.
For all those people who complain about the 10 post rule, this thread is the reason it's there.
Nothing personal against the OP, he's not a 1 post member, this was just a good example, imagine how Many of these there would be if the first post could be made in here.

and I thought it was time to collect the bounty after reading the title
Thread moved to Q&A and subsequently closed, as question has been answered.
Please do not start a thread in dev forum unless you are actually releasing something.
