Hey guys
I bought my htc pro2 hoping I would find a forum that what not look at me arrogantly because of me being a noobie. I am really amazed here, in the other sections like TOUCH HD when I owned one the forum members used to answer and help me alot.
While here no one even bothers
I have 2 main question
1- Is there a way to write and read arabic and hebrew
2- How can I fix the gps using IGO, I noticed it is not very accuarte when it comes to its location by about some meters
I know after I wrote this no one will answer
I ran a quick search to find what you're looking for (use this link for quick finds: http://www.google.com/advanced_search?q=+site:http://forum.xda-developers.com&hl=en&lr=&as_qdr=all )
Here's one on hebrew support: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=532165&page=2
And one on IGO8 (there are several GPS threads to choose from) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=562245
Hope that helps...
this is the solution to your problem--- USE THE SEARCH FEATURE!!! im not trying to be rude but thats why the search feature is there and obviously it wasnt that hard to find ur answer bc the previous poster found it quickly...again, not trying to get a tude, just trying to help
It might help if you put some clue to what you want in your title. Otherwise, someone who knows the answer may not even look.
A thread titled "I am really wondering why no one ansers my question- is it crime to be noobie" just sounds like a thread where someone is whining about not being answered.
I would title it something like "HELP: How to input arabic & hebrew? / Fix the gps using IGO?" It would help people notice your actual intent. No one is going to be doing a full text search for threads they can answer.

No, wrong.
(1) The word "HELP" does not add anything. A good title would be: Support for Hebrew/Arabic Input
(2) These are two separate topics that deserve separate threads.
I know I have posted this in the Q&A section, but I am making an assumption that there are many people who only look at the Development forums, so I wanted to post here too.. Hope no one minds.
Does anyone know if it is possible to make the font in Google Maps larger to make it easier to use as a satnav ?????
Thanks all
Ian
dupliate threads not allowed and obviously not related to ROM Dev.
I'll get straight to the point....
Despite stickys and forum announcements most of us are still finding ourselves becoming terribly, terribly vexed at the amount of [Q]'s cluttering the dev section...
Therefore, from now on, if you do not follow the rules outlined below, you will be infracted. Break them again and you may find yourself unable to post anything at all on any forum!!
[Q]Surely thats a bit harsh aint it??
[A]Not really....
We've tried to be nice about it but that clearly doesnt work.

If you cannot read and abide by the simple rules in this sticky then I dont know how you're going to manage to hack your device without running into trouble.
The Dev section is NOT for asking questions.....
The Dev section is NOT for general topics..........
All threads posted MUST be prefixed with a description of the thread, [ROM] / [Kernel] etc etc.....*
*(Not planning on being particuarly strict on this. You guys (the devs), know how to title a thread.... just a pointer for new devs.)
Basically, unless your thread is to actually release something or discuss something of a very technical and n00b unfriendly nature, it doesnt belong here!
Pretty simple really.....
If you see something that shouldnt be here then PM me....
I will try to check in as reguarly as I can but I have a few sections to keep an eye on and believe it or not, a life outside XDA
Yes thats right, there is life outside XDA
Post What Where:
General - general technical discussion items, news, anything else that does not fit into the other fora categories.
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.
Similarly, don't make loads of "Thanks for your work here" posts in an active development thread. It's just as annoying to developers as asking when something will be ready. If a ROM is complete, then go ahead and thank the developer if you wish, but don't go into threads for devs only, and interrupt it to post "thanks". It's basically spamming, and is treated as such.
If you are posting in development, you should have read every sticky and notice there, and should be actively developing or helping in the development of something. Developing isn't installing a ROM, or using a tweak, it's creating a ROM or other hack or tweak. If you haven't read for several days before starting out on XDA, you are likely about to ask something already solved. I registered on XDA when I first wanted to post, and that was to join in a discussion on something. Sure, join up and ask a question, but read the information available in General and Q&A first, as your question will have been asked before. Search is your friend here, become familiar with it.
Regarding when to post in development if you are not actually developing something, there is one occasion where it's acceptable. If you find a leak of a new ROM, which isn't already posted, and you verify it's legitimacy via either running it, or based on the source you obtained it from, then this is assisting in development, and should be posted in development. If you want to ask when a leak will be available use search first, then if not already in discussion, open a thread in general or Q&A.
If you have a problem flashing a ROM, this is NOT related to development. It's up to you to determine if it is specific to a particular ROM, and post useful information in that developer's existing thread for the ROM. If it happens on more than one ROM, and isn't a known issue (remember you should read several times more words than you post), then find out what you are doing wrong. Check guides written by others, try to repeat the problem and see if it happens every time. Something needs to be reproducible to be fixed effectively.
Once you have identified what you need help with go to the device Q&A forum (general if device lacks one), and make a clear, informative thread that explains the issue, and what you have tried doing to fix it. Did you re-download the ROM? Did you ask a friend to flash it for you, to reduce chance of user error? What steps (exactly) did you follow? What errors did you see (exact wording)? Did you double check all the steps? Did you do a wipe or hard reset?
If you make a clear, concise, yet detailed post, you will find help forthcoming, and should get the problem sorted very quickly. If someone suggests you try something, report back on what happened, did it work etc. Then, next time someone has this issue and searches, they will find this and have a verified and tested solution.
So remember... before you start a thread in development, ask yourself what you are developing. If you can't answer, then stop, step away from the post button, and think about where you are posting. Would it be better in General or Q&A, or is some more time with your best friend, search, required?
Can this be posted on all dev boards please? It is sorely missed...

I'd love if someone developed a smallapp that turns on the flash led. I think it would be really useful and easy to make.
Man, I wish I was able to code for android, but I'm too lazy to learn :crying:
Why don't you search on PlayStore?

I guess that your love for the app has blinded you
You posted a question in the general section and not the Q&A like the XDA rules say you should.
And yes, asking someone to do or make something is a question.
I also agree that a fast search of the play store will turn up several torch apps. The rules also say to search your question before posting.
These are the XDA forum rules that you violated.
1. Search before posting.
Use one of our search functions before posting, whether you have a question or something new to share, it's very likely someone already asked that question or shared that news.
15. Keep posts/threads on-topic
Whilst a minor amount of off-topic posting may be overlooked, the general rule is your posts / threads must be relevant to the Forum / thread in which you are posting.
General Forums - For news and announcements relating to your device.
Q&A Forums - For all question threads / posts. If there is no Q&A forum use the device General Forum
For the full set of the XDA rules please bookmark the link in my signature called "READ THE XDA RULES"
Thank you for understanding reported for mod moving
Uhh...
I wasn't asking for a "small torch app", but for someone to make a SmallApp that enables the torch. You know, sometimes it's useful to turn on the torch without having to leave the app you're in, and that's the point of Small Apps. That would really be useful, I think.
Of course I know there are over 9000 torch apps in the market (I'm not that disconnected from reality yet), but I was asking for someone to make a torch SmallApp, because there isn't one yet.
And I thought requests went in General because I saw a couple of [request] threads in there, but if I was wrong, I apologize.
Technicaly a request is a question and should be in Q&A. Its up to the mods to move it if needed.
Sorry I miss read the post.
You might want to find a small apps mod thread in the themes & apps and ask there.
You should get a better response there from small app users.
Good luck
