But after I move it, your post looks silly. Don't bother posting about it, just report PM one of the mods or report it and it'll get taken care of. Fair warning to thread starters: if you incorrectly post something in the Development forum, it's fair game to be deleted without warning.

For RickyJune

I think this is what you were after. If you unzip it and put the folders in your main memory (windows, programs or somewhere similar) you can use them as tray apps.
If its not what you wanted the answer is i don't know
Noticed you've had ringtone troubles. try the cab
And why couldn't this be done in a PM? was it really needed to start a new thread?

Bless you really are quite bored aren't you. Thought they might be helpful to more than one person to answer your question.

He may be trying to increase his post count, but he had a valid point.
Johnston411 answered a question previously asked by Rickyjune. This was presumably asked in a thread or post in this forum so why wasn't the answer posted there to share with anyone reading that post?

Ah ok - have done the same myself, so appologies.
As for PM's - I don't have a problem with answering them but I normally check out who they are from - but I DO have a problem with PM's from people who ask questions they are too lazy to research awnswer to. I'll also try to find a relevant post to attach the answer to if not PM'd back.

[FAQ] User signature?

Is there a way I can add my own signature on here? I heard that it is in USER CP but the option isnt there ...
Moderator Edit - Here's the answer from svetius
svetius said:
This was an effort to combat spam, and it's had a huge impact! You'll be upgraded to a full account after a certain number of posts (5 - 8 depending on the feature)--it happens automatically. Sorry for the inconvenience

It may take time after reaching the 5-8 post limit for it to allow you access, this is because the process runs in the background.
And when you have enough posts, you can edit your Signature in the UserCP (on the left hand side called "Edit Signature").
Or just click here : Edit Signature

People / Bots were Posting generic messages, like "Thanks this is great" or in some cases, actual responses based on words in a thread. The post it's self was not spam (although pretty pointless), but the users signature would contain 3-4 links to an online company of varying levels of trustworthiness.
We used to find one or two of these bad boys a day. Because they didn't create new threads, nor did they make it obvious to the casual observer, they were getting away with it.
I have not seen one of the so called "signature spammers" since the rules were put in place.
Dave
I had the same question...this is an excellent way to manage spam users. Good job, looking forward to delving more into this forum and getting a signature!
I was a bit upset at not being able to have a signature. Thanks Daveshaw for explaining. Its indeed a great way to stop spammers.

You should be all set now, check your User Control Panel
finally i found the way!!!thank you
At last I found out why I cant use signature.
I will be using the "search" more.
ah so
so that's why I couldn't see it, cant wait to unlock my sig status
Ya the post limit thing when you start a new account is a good idea to keep the spam to nothing..

But you could post it in General, and then help a few people out while you were there, in Q&A, if your device has one. Don't bother with useless posts, they will be deleted and you'll never get to 10.

Well, you might be right but its not that easy. You know I have experience in those stuff in the development forum, but I have no way to make posts there.
I dont wanna be a sort of spammer by posting stupid stuff to get all the 10 posts.
But this 10 post rule leaves no other way to accomplish...
To find a topic that I can make a useful post takes a lot of time.
If you can't spend the time to make ten legitimate posts before posting in the dev fora, then you don't deserve to post there. This is a developer forum, not a support website.

Oh really? I was a clueless noob total non-developer when I came here and I had no trouble at all helping people who needed links or a little guidance where to find the information they need. XDA works because people help those who help themselves. Do not post useless posts, they will be removed and you'll never get to 10.

how do you thank someone

How can you thank someone, everyone speaks of thanks button but I cant find it, is it because I have under 10 posts?
I guess I have 3 more posts to go to figure out if this is the answer to my question

http://www.hallmark.com/online/ideas/thank-you-and-appreciation/
I wanted to put this in the thread it applies to, but I can't post there because I'm a noobie . This seems a good place to put it - partly because I can't see a Thankyou button either - Tweet it, Face it or Report it, yes; Thank it , no.
Anyhow this is ref: "[GUIDE] Downgrade G2 (2.3.X) & DZ (2.3.X) & mT4g (2.3.4) & DHD w/ S-ON to Stock Froyo" in the G2 and Desire Z Android Development forum. If a mod wants to move it there that would be nice - thankyou.
I just want to say THANKYOU to Setherio and strawmetal for their guides and download links.
For some time I've been investigating moving my DZ from HTC Gingerbread to Cyanogen, but from what I could see getting round S-ON was going to be a nightmare, if even possible. The information around is confusing to put it mildly.
This thread gave me hope and these guides actually made it simple ... well maybe not that easy, but following them went pretty much without a hitch.
I just had two notable hiccups: At first adb couldn't find the files, but that was sorted by a cd to the platform-tools folder and run it from there (yes, I did change the environment Path as instructed - perhaps I needed a reboot too). The other hitch was just me mistyping a path for one command .
After dropping off the end of these guides I even got CM7 loaded using the Cyanogen wiki instructions, but it all went a bit pear-shaped then as it got stuck in a boot loop. A bit of googling found a solution - seems some other peoples' guides aren't as good as this xda one and didn't mention certain clearings of caches that were needed. But it's all up and running now.
So once again a huge THANKYOU to Setherio and strawmetal - I literally couldn't/wouldn't have done it without you.
Same Here
Same here, and I can´t find nothing, nowere!!!
It would be easy for us, noobs, if we can find about in some place. Like the post who explains this new funcion, could have "but only if... you could use this".
I use some good advices here and i don´t really need to post dumb stuff just to say thank you!

Yeah the mods have gone a bit crazy in preventing noobs from participating in the dev section... just leads to way more pming and spamming in all the other sections.

Hi, that's my first post. :silly:
I came here trying to find a way to thank a dev that made my phone even more impressive. (tytung)
But as the rom is in the "Devs only area" (min 10 posts) I could not thank him.
I wish it were different. I agree with the limitation of noobs not being able to post, but I just wanted to thank.

thanks for letting me know how to thank :good:

Thread Closed, for one is should not be in this forum and two it will only serve as a place to reach 10 posts, which we dont want.

Screw that idea. Wrong section = no answer until it's in the right one.
answer... so it can be closed and moved
MetroPCS... you have the following three choices that I know of:
Stock (the basic RUU [with or without update(s)]) -> Go to Football's thread
I made a lil stockish rom (think its over on AndroidForums)
Henry09 has HenseMod that works with MetroPCS
Other than those, other roms may work, but I wouldn't count on them being a daily driver.. SMS/MMS or something will give you difficulty sooner or later.
I will also say it is my personal recommendation to NOT install ctmd with HenseMod.. repartitioning has screwed up so many MetroPCS's data; that I choose not to go into a rant about it (yet I have supported them the best I can).
That's it man... all I've seen. Yep Simon's 3.5 is an evolution of JMZ's 3.5, and it is the ONLY 3.5 I've seen on the CDMA side.. there may be/probably will be bugs as both of those devs (as well as I) are with VM USA; plus its a port.
Ok that's all I got.. pack it up and move it to general.
Regards,
Rob

What forum software does xda-developers runs on

Is phpBB, vBulltin, or any other?
PS: Is xda-developers forum software capible of showing the thread open time?
I often found it is difficult to tell which is newer one, until I click into it. Kinda time wasted just to see the freshness of thread.

vBulletin. Not sure what you mean by thread open time, the default sort is with the threads with the latest posts at the top. The stickied threads are at the top of course, so you might have to scroll down in some forums to see the threads with the very latest posts in there.
This might help: [GUIDE] - XDA New User Guide - The Visual Guide.

Ahh, I see what you meant by thread open time now. No problems with your English, I misunderstood. No, I don't see a way to sort by the start date. It is generally expected here that the first post of ROMs or guides get updated, so whenever it was started wouldn't matter.
Thank you,

Sorting them based on post count might work, as the most active rom threads will have tons of posts but sorting them based on last post (default) is better imo.
Can also sort according to 'Threads / Thread Starter', have no idea what those do besides mixing all the threads and confusing me. :silly:
