First of all I'll apologize, as I know this has been asked before, just couldn't find the thread describing it.
I want to change the startup image on my tytn, but I can't remember which file I'm supposed to replace.
Any help appreciated, and once again, sorry about repeating this as I hate threads which are repeated myself.
That would be this "welcomehead.96.png". Cheers...
ah, cheers mate, was searching through all files trying to see if it would jump out at me. Just couldn't remember it.
Cheers

chad, you already asked this noob question in another thread you needlessly started. This is BASIC and has been covered a million times. Please do not waste space with a post like this. Read the wiki or do a search (google is your friend- "your search" site:xda-developers.com)
Maybe it should be good to start new sticky thread in this section with common WM6 upgrade problems for ignorant noobs that do not read wiki...
But I do not know if they would be reading it...It is so much easier to just start a thread and wait.

eh, I say forget the noobs. Ignore their topics or link them to the wiki.
noobs need to learn to READ on their own.

Actually I searched the WIKI and found this... I also posted the necessary cab in the other thread you started where you asked for help.
For someone with 6 posts to their name I'd be careful of who I called a ****... that is if I ever expected to not be treated as a ****.
on the top of what Dr Puttingham said there is one more location in the wiki where you can find it - right on the first place here. Do not blame us for your inability to search for information - that is basic skill for everyone online. And yes your question is being asked every two weeks on average...

ok well im not "blaming you for my inability to search for information"
im simply asking someone for help with something that i couldnt find anything on. imagine how youd feel if you just did something to your phone and couldnt find what happened and why its doing something its not suppoused to. you would be asking people too whats there to do if you couldn't find what was out to fix it.
all im saying instead of saying H0LY FUXZ0RZ R34D TEH WIKI JEW FUKN N00BZ
post the actual section its in and say this is in the wiki in this section so we can click on it and see it in the wiki
I'm sure the poor grammar, spelling and lack of punctuation had no bearing on the lack of search results. I've found an answer to every question I've had without having to be spoon fed every step of the way.

If he did a search he wouldn't needed to make a pointless thread , I wouldn't made a post without an answer, and you wouldn't have made a smartass comment like you know it all. How long did it take you to search for that thread link you posted? I'm sure it would've taken krucifix the same amount of time it took you.

I didn't make a smartass comment until you told me that if I was posting that I should give an answer. The difference between you and I is that I contribute to the forum and I don't make comments about people posting without giving the answers and even after all my time here I still search for answers rather that making threads. The point I'm trying to say is we need people to do some research on the forum for their problems and try to solve them themselves instead of expecting to be given the answers to everything. There is a high percentage that an issue has been covered and resolved on the past and if people would search they could get an answer without the need of a new thread of a topic that is on another thread. Peace..

Spoon-feeding people does nothing to help. If there too lazy to search first before asking, what good do they add to the community? And if he upgraded to 6.1, shouldn't that question have been addressed in the rom thread he's using? Why does it deserve its on special thread when it related to a rom he's using that has its own thread? It was stupid to start a new thread, regardless of whether or not someone gave him the answer. BTW, did you just pull that link out of your head, or did you have to search for it/him?
Imagine yourself lost and ask someone for help but only to get a reply like: "Why don't you learn to read a map dumbass." Tell them what they need and then teach them how to find things themselves.

No No No, people need to use the search then ask for help if the knowledge they are looking for is not available to which considering how much info is on XDA then the answer is generally there..... If not then make a post in the correct thread!!!

Hi, guys
I was just wondereing if there is a possible software out there to backup my Touch Pro 2, like the iphone where you could restore and it would be the same at the same period of time.
Thanks guys for reading, and helping. Kenichi*
No. There is absolutely no backup program ever made for the TP2.
OR
You could do a simple search and find a ton of info about what is available. Read the forum rules before posting. See this very important information, http://forum.xda-developers.com/announcement.php?f=488.

Questions like that are best searched for over in the Themes and Apps section.
The 2 most widely-used solutions for doing a full-system backup for your TP2 are SPB Backup and Sprite Backup.
Windows Mobile Backup
Windows MyPhone works perfect for backing up and restoring all data, including texts

The problem is not about helping users. It is about letting XDA become so junked up with multiple threads about the same thing because people are too (fill in the blank) to search. Can you imagine how bad it would be if everyone who had a question just started a new thread.
In addition, if you people would read the forum rules you would be informed that searching is the first thing you do before posting. That includes in a thread or starting a new thread.
As long as "helpful" people reply to the (fill in the blank) people that ask without searching, and give them the answer, we will never have control of XDA. It just gets more and more bloated and junked up. Sorry if you don't see that.

EXACTLY ! Kimtyson, you got it on the head
I'd like to add that if these people can't be bothered to spend a little time do a simple thing like search for the answer to their own question then why should anyone else put any effort in ?
At one point there seemed to be a new thread almost everyday asking "My RAM is at x%". What does that achieve apart from pushing legitimate questions off the bottom of the page so people with real problems are less likely to get help ?
I think there should be a 24hr posting ban for anyone starting a thread who blatantly hasn't spent any of their own time trying to sort it out. The forums rules do state you have to search first and maybe by enforcing this we could streamline things a bit.
Hello all. I just got a TP2 and found this great site. I have been reading for 3 days and still feel lost. Can someone please point me in the right direction? I want to customize, but don't know where to begin.

Thank guys. I know I have a lot more reading to do!
Hello, all.
First of all, let me say that I did not make the decision to create a thread lightly. I have been a member of this forum for over a year, and this is my first post. I have looked everywhere, but cannot find this simple answer.
How do I thank a member for his/her excellent work? Specifically, I have been trying to thank twa_priv for his excellent Kindle Fire JB build, which I have been using fr the last week or so. I cannot find a thank button. I do not have permission to post in the thread; (which I do not have any intention of doing, anyway, unless I have a specific question or error to report) but, does that mean I do not have permission to thank? Do I need to spam away 9 more posts to have the right to thank someone? I read that there should be a picture of a flower (or, at least, there would be on Tapatalk, which I am not using), but don't see anything of the sort using Chrome on Ubuntu.
Thank you in advance.

That's exactly the information I was looking for. The link was helpful, too. You may have noticed that I gave a disclaimer to my post. I have been using this forum for thirteen months without ever having posted anything. I felt like a total jerk for even having had to create a thread for something so trivial. I usually search and easily find the answer to any question, but was not finding anything about this. I am certainly trying not to be obnoxious to anyone. Thanks again!

[GUIDE] How to be a New User (and not a noob)
Trying to be a good new user I searched for how to give thanks and found this thread instead of spaming other threads with "Thanks for posting" Appreciate the clarification on why I couldn't see the thanks button.
Thank YOU!
I actually joined this site just to thank someone who posted an updated app, but wasn't sure how until I saw this.
Feels like a lot of hoops, but hopefully it's worth it.
It's at the bottom-left of the post . I don't have it at first but after my first post , *poof* it's there and available XD
Thanks for the thread as I also want to be able to give people their just due.
Just in addition:
On Tapatalk and XDA app, just long-press the post you want to thank for, then scroll a little bit to the right in the appearing actions menu and select "Thanks" (may be in your system's language).
Enable thanks button by having a post
This is my obligatory first post to enable the thanks button. Figured this was the best thread to do it.
