Mgr : What is this?
Me : Oh just a launcher from the market.
Mgr : Hey Allen this guy put his own OS on here. Doesn't that void is warranty?
Allen : what the **** an OS?
Mgr : Yep! Yeah sir we can't do anything since you put a new OS on here. Being smart isn't gonna work for you here.

i agree if they start linking to posts, that will discourage people from asking their questions.
If someone posts something thats been asked a million times, either ignore them, link them to the proper post, or give them the terms to search to help them out a bit. I'm not asking you to hold their hand and do the work for them, just pitch in a bit.
This community welcomes all and it would be great if xda-dev doesn't turn into another fanboy forum.
But the way this thread is going, with funny stories overheard or experienced with retail employees, i see no issue with that.
Lets not start to single people out and embarrass our fellow members.
I was glancing at some phones while walking past the T-Mobile kiosk in the mall today:
Employee: "Hey wanna sign up with T-Mobile and get a new phone today?"
Me: "Nah, no thanks just looking."
Employee: "Who's your carrier now?"
Me: "Sprint."
Employee: "Oh man you need to switch over, that's not good, leave them. We have discounts on your first month's bill and the next month and it continues."
Me: "Nah, I just recently got an Evo (pulled out the phone)."
Employee: "Oh...oh...Well we had it first you know?"
Me: "Yeah except it's missing a front camera."
Employee: "Man nobody cares about that."
Me: "Well I do. And the HD2 also runs Windows Mobile...."
Employee: "Yeah....."
And that was the end of that sales pitch lol.
Guys,
Whilst we do not want to stifle what could be an intellectual discussion, we have to be careful in that individuals are not pointed at, singled out or made fun.
This is most definitely NOT in the spirit of XDA and i am not convinced that this thread wont head down that slippery slope.
The very title of the thread suggests to me that in pointing out a "dumb question" will inevitably result in the individual being mocked, which is a clear violation of XDA rules.
It is for this reason that i am closing this thread, if you disagree at all or would like to pm me please feel free.
Thank you.
Tim.

My wife is going to be using my phone for awhile since I am buying an Epic 4G to test it out. I may flash back on the EVO and I want to maintain ROOT, but she wants to try the stock Sprint/HTC 2.2 experience.
I know you can't root a 2.2 device, but is there a pre-rooted 2.2 stock rom available I could install?
I have been searching but I cannot seem to find one, so I apologize if this has been posted somewhere.
Thank you in advance!

Me and my 64 posts are going to say that, first of all, this should be posted in Q&A (but of course that won't do any good, just felt like telling someone) and secondly... How hard did you look for a pre-rooted stock 2.2 ROM? Must not of been very hard, to be honest. I just went back two pages in this thread and found it.

you and your 64 posts need to go get a snack and come back with some constructive input. why is it that when someone doesnt find something, that instantly they are a retard or an idiot that some douchebag cant hold back his OR her own retarded mouth? its people like yourself that takes away from the greatness of this forum. go find a forum that has a lot of pond scum in it so you will feel right at home along with all the rest of the bottom feeders.
not only were you just flaming someone to puff up your piddley self esteem while munching on potato chips and soda, but you said you found the link to his question and didnt put it in your post to help the person out. so, you are simply a flamer....which type of flamer is yet to be determined.

No, I wasn't eating potato chips or drinking soda at the time lol. And I wasn't "flaming" someone to puff up my self esteem. And I do believe I did give some constructive input when I mentioned to post the question on the Q&A board. Isn't that worth points? Again, no my mouth isn't retarded. That makes no sense. I didn't think the person was a retard or an idiot. Just saying that he didn't try very hard to look for what he was looking for.
If you look closely at what you're typing, you're flaming away at me. So it seems you're taking the role as the flamer now. You're whole rant just doesn't make sense

Good work. Tired of these people. Look for the Rom that is HTC stock rooted.
You did the right thing by telling him to post in the right section. Also did the right thing by not posting a link and saying "couple pages back".
Order! Because the mods can't catch everything.

Tim - sorry for the poor responses to an obvious serious question. Let's just move on from the bashing of telling you to post somewhere else, etc.
Two things:
1) If your wife's phone is on 2.1 then you can use either of these 2.2 OTA ROMs to get to 2.2 Stock
Rooted 2.2 Stock HTC ODEXED - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=743352
Rooted 2.2 Stock HTC DEODEXED - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=743781
2) IF your wife's phone already has the 2.2 Update then there's no way (currently) to get 2.2 Rooted
Hope that helps.

There are a few devs that have had this as early as last weekend - hence having the new 1.77 PRI. There is also a new radio associated with this release. It will begin to be pushed OTA by Sprint tomorrow (9/22) - and that is official.

I've been around SDX for a bit and jerdog has proven himself to drop some very accurate knowledge when it comes to release dates and inside info from Sprint. He's stated on a few occasions he's some kind of higher level tech for Sprint on the radio and towers end. I trust his info.
Is this going to mean new kernels once it and the source code are released. Im one of the rookies but im thinking the new stock kernel should have great battery life like the one flipz just released and with the fps fix worked in by htc it should be pretty damn good out of the box.
any talks of a port?
No. Its illegal

I would love to see WP7 ported over to the EVO just to say "Hey is possible" but I don't think I would waste such a powerful device like the EVO on such a crappy OS. I mean don't get me wrong, there are some things that are cool about WP7 but is not enough for anyone to ditch Android and use WP7 as their primary OS. If you want to use WP7 then either buy a WP7 phone or go and buy an HD2. I have an HD2 as well as my EVO and I can tell you that the HD2 is great for the fact that it runs so many OS but with that being said, is not even close to the performance of the EVO.

DUDE, don't give people the whole is illegal thing. If that's illegal then I'm pretty sure that if you wanted to start breaking things down as far as what is legal and what's not....alot of what's done on here would be illegal. Things like flashing phones to different carriers and stuff like that.
The HTC HD2 can be flashed to WP7 and Android.....is that illegal? If so, then you better inform XDA that they need to shut their doors because they have a bunch of illegal activity going on within their site.......I hate people like you...I really do!

I put that i have an otterbox case so if someone had a question about it they can ask me. Because I try to be helpful. In fact most of my time spent here is helping or at least trying to help other people. 90% of my posts are answering other people's questions. I spend a LOT of time on this site, and see tons of casual posters come in and clutter this forum up and it makes it harder for everybody else to find the answers they are looking for when they have to sift through bull**** thread after bull**** thread. But you're right, I could have been nicer about it but I'm tired and have a headache and don't really feel like being nice right now. And I have no manners.

Okay guys, after the ridiculous debacle today, those of us who frequent the IRC channels decided that it was time for a change.
For most of the day, that change was moving to a new channel. However, after some talking a few of us actually got cnz(RoadRAGEN) to listen to reason. He's turned over control of the room to an unbiased bot and gave a number of us operator passwords. To top it off, he's agreed to stay off the op list unless absolutely necessary (he won't be raging out anymore, he has his own private channel for that now). The rest of us can sign into the bot and get ops so we can keep peace and order if needed. Otherwise, the only people who get automatic ops are the bots and no one else.
Okay, first the one and only new rule. No more posting logs on xda. the moderators are probably sick of it by now and it accomplishes nothing besides starting fights. if you do post logs and we catch you, you'll get banned until you take it down. To make it worse, we don't stop cnz from doing it himself. It's counterproductive and stupid.
Lastly, cnz(RoadRAGEN) said he will dial it down inside the channel and around here. He had a talk with the moderators today and we had a talk with him in the channel. XDA didn't ban him and neither will we. It was talked about for a minute...but he banned me first...it was a fiasco. BUT, it's fixed now.
Now before you get all apprehensive, remember that despite cnz being a complete douchebag who often forgets what "crossed the line" means, he's still one of our most talented developers and has contributed a lot to this young community. Every rom up in here either directly uses his original updater script, uses a heavily modded version or pieces of it. Yes, sometimes he's incredibly insensitive and no one in their right minds would defend his personality or his actions (especially today), but he understands what happened here today and knows that doing it again is stupid.
It's all about the Android so you can come out from under your beds, the boogieman isn't also the doorman anymore.
If you're still angry about the incident, it's understandable. But remember, like xda, irc is a community and in no way do the actions today represent the community as a whole. It was as a community that we discussed the problem and it was a community that we dealt with it. So don't think this decision was made lightly.
If you don't agree, please keep the flaming to yourself. We don't need another out of control thread about IRC around here.
So this means my +q will be taken off?

Yes, but it might take a minute, we're still kinda learning how to operate under the "bot is god" paradigm.
**edit**
nevermind we already lifted all the bans and stuff. all's well. clean slate.
I would love to learn how to dev and step up but have been avoiding irc due to this situation.

I dont know what the back story is here and quite frankly I dont care.
What happens on an IRC channel outside of XDA does not belong here.
If theres drama off site, keep it off site.
Simple no?
Thank you mods. U know why.

Perhaps I should point out that my question was rhetorical.
It's as simple as this.
IRC is not XDA...
DO NOT bring IRC related drama to XDA...
It really doesn't get much simpler than that does it?
(again, rhetorical question)
It's very simple...that's why there's no drama in this thread

I seem to have missed all that, so I guess I'm the ignorant party at the moment. I really don't think the changes made or this thread should be held responsible for the unwieldy comments of others, though. I've been nothing but civil in all this
But I don't blame you, though. I can't imagine people are going quietly into that good night and I'm sure I've been getting my fair share of the flames as well for trying to mediate all this nonsense.
I wasn't pointing the blame in any particular direction.
Just making sure everyone is on the same page.

Of course not, I didn't mean to insinuate that lol.
When I went to bed last night everyone was on the same page, but I got a bunch of PMs saying I was "flamed by some noob" and the thread/posts are gone (I guess that was your doing lol, thank you). I was just saying the angry words of a few don't represent the opinions of the rest of us.
People have their opinions. That's not illegal yet, so I'm not offended. However, if my name is eventually going to be Mudd, then I'll probably end up ceasing my attempts to help out and go back to my little corner to make roms again

Hey guys just fyi, I'm not associated with the channel anymore. After nearly a dozen PMs in IRC and almost another dozen on here about how I'm a hate monger and a jerk off, I've decided that it's not worth it and I've had enough.
To all of you who PMed me with negative things, you should be ashamed of yourselves.
To those of you who appreciated the efforts, sorry I couldn't do more.
Being ostracized because I refuse to bend to Mob Rule just feels wrong to me, but that's what is happening. Apparently I was being offensive by treating everyone with equal respect without discrimination and not being an anti-cnz hate monger like everyone else.
It sucks, I liked that irc channel, but there's capable people running it still. I won't be going back. I'm tired of being nearly constantly flamed for trying to be fair and helpful.
*sigh* I feel better now. Peace guys.
We had a bounty for bubby to get the money to buy our phone. And I remember there was one guy who (was awesome!!) donated over $200 as well as gave bubby a computer for him to work on.
I have been following bubby on his twitter and it doesn't seem that he's working on our phone. He's working every day but just not on our phone, not at all.
But, by simply looking at his twitter it's not entirely clear whether he is or not working on our phone. I hope it's just me that read it wrong.
Edit:
Several people confirmed that he's working on his Epic 4G Touch, not our phone. He has not posted a single twit regarding anything he has done / is doing / is considering doing for our phone. He has not been responding to my questions on twitter, and people have been saying he either dance around when asked about our phone or not respond at all.
Edit:
I know the concept that a donation is a donation and is not like you are paying for something, but...
Edit:
While he has not developed a thing for any phone other than his own Epic 4G Touch, he has been asking for donation for numerous other phones. We should probably interfere and refer the people in other forums (potential victims) to this thread.
Edit:
Just a thought, whoever donated, are you able to charge it back through your credit card company with a reason of "service not delivered"? If you are lucky maybe you can get your money back? I know it's a "donation" but bubby did promise in the bounty thread to deliver lots of stuff, he even said he already got ICS booted etc and played us with "here's a bunch of goodies coming up from me just donate to me and stay tuned" ****.
If your following him on twitter you already know the answer to your question.

Lmao, how pathetic.
Hard lesson learned for those involved? Sure.
Kick in the balls from his part? Absolutely.
How is that not 100% theft? Atleast fundamentally.
To the laptop owner, has he sent that back?
By looking at his twitter it's not exactly clear whether bubby is or not working on our phone. Can someone else share some opinion?

And his Twitter. Ask him directly for a 'better answer' but, I think he's made it pretty clear he doesn't know wtf he's doing.

Its sad but truthfully some can be misleading as we all know. What is done here is in fun hobby and practice...to donate is great and needed....but only after said item has been created...
Moral wise...f ya its wrong and ill never support his present or future work.
Reality .... he probably cares less and can only verbally be punished....I think much more in order such as ban of account or other....
To mislead and not give up what was given....well some can be gutter trash here but hopefully not to long........

Wow. I'm definitely glad that I didn't donate. I'd only donate to devs that I can vouch for, like Faux, Slayher, etc. Hopefully Bubby didn't violate any of you guys who has donated. Maybe he's working on something big.

I brought this up in his bounty thread and everyone doubted me. Real devs can get their own phone. Simple as that. Someone should ask luckyduck or something in these forums; claimed to be his "tester".

I think its effed up especially after just reading what mickeycobra04 posted about other thread. **** is nuts well deja vu if u wanna get technical. And the crazy part is right when the s2 came out he made stock kernel tar the stock recovery and i think a few other things. He basically reeled everybody in so they would know he wasnt just a nobody and could develop a little then he says cm, ics, asop and that rite there was like music to our ears so we start donating and he stays active. Then after some time he gets his phone and a laptop! And posted like 2 times since. Now i know everyone has lives and **** like that but cmon bro its been a month maybe a little less. Bring something to the table man it aint cool.

at the risk of being a **** to a 15 year old kid, let me try to help you understand. if you go over to the fascinate/continuum forums and ask them about bubby, you will hear nothing good about the kid. he has been making promises to android users for a while now, and RARELY coming through with anything more than a system dump or a stock kernel here and there. i know its said that donating with expectations isnt donating, but in the android community, why do people donate? we want to see someone make **** happen. well, this kid is a talker and not a doer. i donated to help get roman his gs2, i was rewarded with jugs(kernel), and juggernaut(rom). in the future, people should do a little more research before they dive in and give a person(15 year old kid) money for a phone, or a laptop.
He is in the skyrocket forums asking for donations also. I hate to say it but I seriously think he is in the wind folks. Its sad because this will prevent people from donating to serious developers. I have a corporate T-mo account and we got 25 galaxy s2's as a promo and he begged me for one of them and I was very close to sending him one in the beginning but thank god my very smart wife told me I'd be crazy to send some kid that I dont know from adam a 600 dollar phone. Well live and learn and just hope that maybe he will still come thru. But not looking to likely. Hell team kang has released 3 roms since Bubby supposedly got his phone.

bubby wont use a tester on anything "valuable". hes a gloryhound. everyone should follow his tweeter and see his ridiculous tweets. its comedy.
http://twitter.com/#!/bubby323xda
I think that those that whove donated should bomb the Skyrocket, Epic and whatever else thread Bubby frequents towards get the message across. Post the links of these threads that shows proof of Bubby not delivering what he claim he'd deliver and maybe he'll answer.
