[Q] Weird Wiki Problem - About xda-developers.com

When I try to click a link in the wiki it seems to just redirect me back to the main page. Is anyone else having this problem? Here is the exact page I was viewing: http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=HTC_Dream
I wanted to click the link under 'Hack/Upgrading/Flashing called "Rooting (T-Mobile/Google Branded Dreams)" when I try to follow the link I end up at the main page where you select the device you wish to read about.
It seems that this link: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?pagename=HTC_Dream_Rooting is redirecting here: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?pagename=HTC_Dream_Rooting
Where might I find this page now?
Thank you!

Links of "View posts since last visit" do not work

Maybe I'm the only one, but i can not believe.
If i do my visit here in the forum and check the new Postings over "View posts since last visit" i get the list of all new postings. If i try to open these postings in a new tab i got the following link e.g. http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=16652&highlight=
The &highlight= is too much in the link, so i only get a blank page. After editing the link and removing &highlight= it do work all fine.
Any Idea how to solve it? Problem with the forum software?
Tried it with Mozilla on Linux and Firefox on Win XP ....

[Idea] RUU Errors

a simple idea came across my mind....
since a large number of posts spread through all the forum are about RUU errors i was thinking if some of you guys out there will be kind and provide link to the wiki ruu errors page in your signature...it would greatly decrease number of pointless and useless posts like "what does error [260] mean"...
there is a link in my signature...just copy it....
additionally if you want we can discuss the form of the link itself so all of us have the same look so people get familiar with it....eg the size,color,additional characters,the text itself
i added a RUU Errors page in the FAQ of the main wiki section..
link: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=RUU Errors
sounds nice, could you pm me your code for it? Or post it here, after all it ain't a secret
no code...click my signature and copy the address from browser window
but i will add it to the first post
I meant the color & sizing codes, for similar looks.
see my sig.
sorry sorry
this form isn't the final one i was thinking of people talking about it so we get one nice...
but now let's stick to this one
size 3
color red
text >> Ruu Errors <<
if anyone has a complain or wants to change ti...let's talk about it
Thanks great idea just added to my sig
That was wrong with this wiki page ?
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=RUU_Errors
Dave
it is that wiki page i just made it in the main wiki section because if you go to wiki,pres ctrl+f and type ruu...you will get this thread....
otherwise you would use google which is a pain in the ass because there are a lot of ruu errors mentioned in threads like what is ruu error [270] and a lot of people don't know for google advanced search (like "site:" option)
or you'd have to know that there is one in HD section...which is less likely the case for most of the users...
if anyone thinks that it is useless and repeated...please remove it...we do not want our wiki to look like all hell
Nope
This is the thread I created : http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=RUU_Errors
This is the one you made : http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=RUU Errors
And here is the results of the search for RUU on the wiki : http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?auto_redirect=1&pagename=TitleSearch&s=Ruu
P.S. I know a couple of the HD mods were updating the RUU_Errors page with the most recent fixes.

If you don't mind, can you copy all the usefull hints that are missing from the RUU_Errors page into the "RUU Errors" page (or vice versa if it's easier). Let me know which one has the all the info and I'll change the other to re-direct to it so we only have one page again .
Dave
so...the page in the main section is exactly as in the hd section.....i redirected the hd to the main...hope you don't mind
thanks for moving the link from the faq to the flashing part

Nice one. Thanks mate.
I've made it so RUU_Errors page will automatically re-direct to the RUU Errors page. So now there's only one to look after.
Dave
i edited the hd and artemis link...you're the main

With page re-directs you don't need to edit the links to it
Click here : RUU_Errors
Note the text below the page title.
Dave
yeah i got that one....but it is kind of stupid to revert those 2 links to RUU_Errors...i did it when i posted that the pages are same
thanks
Great initiative!
Any plans to add troubleshooting steps and distinguish between the "official" VS "modified" rom updater utility?
For example, I had an error 260 with the "modified" Raphael rom update utility while preparing a rom in my kitchen. The issue turned out to be a problem with a malformed XIP. It would go through the flash process (100%) but throw an error at device reset and the rom update utility would display errror 260.
Another scenario, is an error code from the HardSPL updater. Although the code may be the same, the resolution steps may be different.
Cheers,
well this isn't my work i so have no idea
and for the hard spl....it depends on hard spl itself and it depends from device to device...
they all would probably have the same error codes if they were created by the same developer....

[Q] Someone upload ICS stock rom official

Okay so I tried the one in the development center downloading the new official stock rom, but I couldn't download it because i really dont know if its my computer or something is just not popping out its the russian language.
Can someone upload their update.zip that was downloaded from that section? Thank you so much.
Just follow the link. On the page enter the numbers in the box and click on the green button.You will be redirected and if the download doesn't start automatically click on the underlined link on that page.
Edit: Another link if you still can't download from the original one Acer_AV041_A100_1.014.00_WW_GEN1.zip
md5sum:179415e21863f4791966049e74adaa76
Can someone upload it into another site like mediafire because when i start downloading update.zip from that Russian link the DL speed is very slow, but when i checked on my internet speed there's no problem with it, its 3mbs btw....
After putting in the code another page will come up and you will have to uncheck the box before downloading... found that tid bit of info in another post somewhere on here... Good luck!
Worked fine for me this morning with Google translate. Downloaded in five minutes. And if it takes half an hour, what's the problem?
The russian site worked fine for me, took about 45 minutes. No big deal.
I cannot download from Russian site... because of firewall or network?
I decrypted the OTA and posted here. Let me know if the mirror link doesnt work. My dropbox is being stupid and keeps saying its generating too much traffic so its disabled. So stupid.

@zleto - Your mirror worked for me and install was successful over the leaked "Acer_AV041_A100_1.012.00_WW_GEN1.zip".
The following one by aznmode didn't work for me:

I searched for ages to find another link for Acer_AV041_A100_1.014.00_WW_GEN1.zip and the only one I could find was here:
http://acer-club.ru/topic/17462-rom-acer-a100-101400-ww-gen1/
And click on "Download to acer-club.ru". Google translate might help with the page. Direct link to that is: http://download.acer-club.ru/uploads/files/OS/A100/Acer_A100_AV041_1.014.00_COM_GEN1.rar
Hope that helps someone else out.

HTC dev site

hi guys,can any help me on this issue?
i try to log on to HTC dev site...it said i log on success but the page brought me to the same page as i still need to log on again before i can check those 2 boxes and show me the steps to unlock bootloader..thanks
a) this should be in Q&A
b) I'm not sure there's anything we can do to resolve issues with HTC's site. It works fine for me, so maybe:
i) check your cookie settings;
ii) check your adblock/popup settings;
iii) try a different browser;
iv) contact HTC.

Sorry my bad

Is root possible on Verizon Note 4?

Or even just custom recovery?
Google searches result in both yes and no answers i dont know what info to trust
SM-N910V on 5.0.1
I've been out of the phone modding scene for a whille
Thanks to anyone who can give me the correct answer. Dont want to download these files only to brick my only phone
Check out the 'New Note 4 owner' thread above yours. Nothing definitive yet, but it's kind of a lead. Once you click the link, search for 'Verizon' and it'll show our phone, the download links, and the version of Android you need to be on. I haven't tried it yet, but want to. Someone in that thread said someone about the zip file saying Europe in the name, but 'Verizon(USA)' in the description on the first page that loads.

Yep, sad but true. That little unfortunate fact was pointed out in the thread I directed to by another in a not-so-polite way. I didn't even think about checking the date in the post until it was pointed out. Good thing I didn't bother trying it, yet.
