ooh the irony... have you paid for all of the apps on your TyTn??? what about all the cooked in programmes, not sure they would come as part of your service provider O/S Build
Not that I'm condoning Piracy coz I'm not
What everyone is trying to delicately say is that we don't do WAREZ or post other registered / pirated software. If anyone does post a link for you the Mods will delete it anyway.
You're quite lucky that Austinsync et al haven't responded to this 'cos you'd get your ass roasted - and well deserved for posting such a ****wit question.
Try reading the rules of this forum before posting in the future http://forum.xda-developers.com/announcement.php?f=355.

hey moron... why not flaming him more ? ... you sound like you get a kick out of this... Just be civilized and do not respond if you do not like his question, or if you do not have anything better to post.

In case you hadn't noticed, I did post a link to the rules - this is also called "being helpful". All YOU did was flame me - no problem for me - but why not take your own advice and leave alone if you don't like it, or at least also add something useful. I think your reply defines who gets off on flaming, and also who is the moron.

Signature & Restriction

I was just wondering why I cannot add a Signature, like I want to put my phone, the custom ROM I am using etc.. like a load of other members have done.
And like a previous post named "restricted" :
Fallen Spartan said:
A few changes have been created to help the fight against spambots. As such all new members (until they reach 5 posts...used to be 8 but I believe its been reduced to 5) will have some restrictions such as unable to post links, access to certain areas and also their first 5 posts are monitored and approved. Once you have reach this limit these restrctions will be removed.
Thanks for you patience in this matter

I just wanted to know how long it takes for a moderator to review and approve the 5 posts and remove the restriction.
Thanks, James
A few more posts and you should be good-to-go.
Thanks, Everything's sorted now.

Hi, I can´t find any forum rules that help me to answer the question, how many posts you have to write, until u can use a signature.
When does a junior member/member become a member/senior member?
By the way: I did not only serch this forum but also used google search, but found nothing. Same in forum rules.
So I would be glad, to get a definite answer and no advice, to serch the web once more !
Thanx!

Junior member - 0 to 49 posts
Member - 50 to 99 posts
Senior member - 100+ posts
We have purposely not written anywhere the amount of posts required for a new user to be able to use links etc. This is in place to combat spammers.

Thank you very much. Now things are clearer for me. So I have to write more, but I´m interested not only to write rubbish, to reach the limit.
Makes perfect sense, over at LPF (laser pointer forums) theres a ten post limit till you get all the goodies unlocked, it has effectivly eliminated 90% of spammage, and the mods get to choose if you can have a sig or not, depending on how "vulgar" you are. most frown upon vulgarity in most mature comunities such as XDA. excellent implementation i say
(cant wait for my sig though )

I don't think so.
If the restriction is the same as posting links, try adding one now.
Signature size restriction
I was wondering if there were any plans on putting in a signature size restriction? Some of these can get pretty ridiculous and take up a lot of screen space, especially when they post many times in one thread so you have to see it over and over and over.

ORD is more for compulsive flashing rather than posting
You have ORD and OPD (Obsessive-Post Updating Disorder)
Now that's just messed up
Been trying for 3 days to enable signarture. Google point me to this thread and nowI know why

Or you could read here
Could signatures always be shown as an option in the User CP, but be greyed out with a quick blurb explaining when/where/how/why they will be allowed? On treocentral they always gave a warning on the page about not being allowed to see/post links until 10 posts.

Disregard this thread. Sorry. -edit-

I see.
I blame the search engine and myself. Sorry, please disregard and let it die.

Dualboot

Is there any way to dualboot a desire? Like dhd?
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA Premium App
wrong section dumbass and no there is no dualboot
^ Haha
but yeah man this should be in Q&A! getting sick of all these questions in the development forum
Easy solution: only devs should have permission to create new threads in dev section (duh!).
Wrong section but its a great idea that would not work too little memory on the phone inself to run a dual boot. so could a Mod just close this as it is completely pointless.
@howdid, You made my day lol

That's a good idea, but it also has a problem, a new developer without a recognized developer badge, can't open a thread and share his work.

oeps accidently thanked you ghehe, my opinion is someone below 300+ or 500+ posts cant open a new thread here

This looks like a start of a war between the defenders of n00bs and fighters against n00bs. Mods, how about returning from Tahiti and dealing with this situation?

How 'bout reviewing new threads by mods? (Hypocritical suggestion, I know).
That's a fairly standard option on a lot of forums, in some sections only specific categories of posters can start a new thread ( Mods and recognized developer should cover it here). Everyone else has to submit a new thread for mod approval. If implemented it would stop these "random questions" and d******s who post "hey i'm using this rom but can't be a***d reading the rom thread and gosh this is so important i'm gonna start a new thread

Good idea but don't forget not all people with low post counts post before they think, also i have seen noob type mistakes from senior members with 500+ posts before now.
The better idea is devs only being able to make new threads.
Maybe giving to top 3 devs mod status for entire Desire section. I'm confident they're capable more than enough to keep this place tidy.
with some basic search he could find this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=15442534
Hmmm maybe 2 moderator per section is not enough we need more then 4...that's all...personally I don't have any prob. with noobs but at-least read the section rule....
BTW let see... does how desire is capable to run dual.boot...
I clicked that with expectations.
well I posted in the apps section for beta testers for a multiboot app http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1182325 since it's not rom development but then saw this thread and figured i'd link here if anyone's interested...

Granted the OP could have searched and found his question has been asked already,
BUT
1. Was this originally posted wrongly in the Dev section then moved???? If not, why in the h** are people freaking out about ANYONE asking a question in the Q&A (QUESTION and answer) forum?????????????????????
2. The Desire has the same size nand as the Nexus one, we have apha rev with custom MTD partions and Hboots. One would think that if this is possible on the Nexus one, it should be on the Desire.
3. As someone else said, post count and join date do not necessarily reflect one's amount of knowledge. Some people lack common sense about where to post, others are lazy. No matter what the forum rules are that will never change.
Respectfully,

Yep it was, although it could be better said to just be moved in the Q&A Forums, instead of feeding this post with 15+ responds about the same fact.
Anyway I think this thread should either be continued on the topic or closed.
Sorry for off-topic.
to answer the op question, at the moment no, but uncorrupted has been working on dual booting but hasnt had much joy, there is a thread about it, he'll be starting work again soon

|OP| ??

Can anyone tell me what the |OP| designatoer attached to the Rank of a user means? I have just went from not having one to having one?
I've always thought it meant "Original Poster" or the one who posted the thread.

Correct, It is Original Poster eg. The person who made the thread, for example, You (tff2011) are the OP in this thread
Great, Many Thanks! That explains why some times it is there and others not!
