Front Page Comments - About xda-developers.com

Is there a reason why on articles on the front page, all I see is users reposting the title of the article? I know thats not the case, so why am I seeing that?

Those are usually caused by retweats of the article.

Well I'm seeing everyone retweet it. Even the people replying to other comments.

That´s the way it works, normally ppl only re-tweet or G+ or FB, that is why you see that, but from time to time nice discussions are held as well

I have to agree, I hate that they all show up. On the odd occasion I've thought about posting a comment, but then I think why bother, it'll just get lost amongst all the retweets etc...
It's very messy.

That's the only reason I never (well, rarely) comment on the portal.

Well they should remove that feature. I've never seen a news site do that. I thought it was just for comments.

We'll be fixing this very soon.

possibly separate the comments / share, to separate options and dont show the shares.

Honestly no one wants to hear it from some jackass that TALKED SOOOOOOO MUCH **** ABOUT SOFTWARE ROOT ANYWAY. Follow the rules and search before posting useless information that has been already posted! No one cares that you just found this out and you really don't need to open a thread every time you find something new out. This isn't Twitter. This is why the Dinc2 community is CRAP. No one even wants to Dev for us because some of us are ungrateful jerks. People don't forget, and if I recall correctly let me show you how grateful you are.

go ahead and feel dumb, you should.
kingsway8605 "Sure they don't "advertise" it but they are having their cronies post all over here about some imaginary root. I refer you to my previous post about ignoring it. I would rather not continue to argue with you about something I am obviously right about and risk a mod banning me. When, or actually if, Alphrev releases root, I will admit you were right. But I can promise you that won't happen."
do us all a favor and keep your thoughts to yourself. obviously you type before you think, and I don't care if you said your sorry, you still wrongfully accused the very people who's software YOU are using. they shouldn't have even let you use it personally.

It took me a whole 3 minutes tops, because I know how to use the SEARCH button. and I can't SPAM a USELESS thread, this will be deleted once you waste a Mods time and they get around to it.
EDIT: oh, and if I can type faster than you can read, sorry.
its not worth argueing with him andybones,hes obviously an idiot who simply cant do a search before posting a crappy useless thread
I have to check the website. Curious if there is a way to block users who spam the forum. I actually hope a mod deletes it, nobody wants to hear your useless arguing. As for me creating useless threads, I think I have created 3 threads total so far, and one of them helped quite a few people with their alarm clock issues.
For now I am just going to manually ignore you guys. Type away at me, not even going to bother reading them. I will be the mature one.
Edit: wow, just checked my other thread and you argued with someone else in that thread. Do you actually do anything on this site besides argue with others because reading through your comment history it sure seems like all you do is argue, you are ignored for sure.

You can ignore me all you want. Truth of the matter is, I do help people. You annoy people. Clearly. I don't even need to justify myself. For how many days did you down talk alpharevX, and now use their product? I highly doubt you donated. and I'm not arguing, I'm responding, and my first post was blowing off a little steam because it's people like you who CRAP these threads up.. it's not wonder all the REAL devs left XDA. useless, ungrateful people like yourself.

Is this OTA dump kosher.
I may not be getting OTA in my location. So I went fishing and came across this.
http://www.androidpolice.com/2011/0...8-605-4-same-as-the-official-gingerbread-ota/
They claim it is the same as the OTA but since it can be RUU'ed will work on all phones, incl. those with modification to the ROM.
Has anybody tried this one? Also, since I have never gone the RUU route some additional instructions will be most welcome.

If you are not s off, just flash it. If it has been tampered with than the update should fail. It isn't todays ota though, it is the one from a few weeks ago.
Sent from my ADR6350 using Tapatalk
Thanks @kingsway8605. This is the only one I could find. About two weeks old. Any other URL's?
Presumably the flashing involved copying the file (with changed name) to SD card root. Remove the USB cable and then do <volume down> + <power>. I hope the follow up is pretty simple and straight forward. I do not have much Android experience.

#samsung-epic-touch: now under new management

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.

Yes, but it might take a minute, we're still kinda learning how to operate under the "bot is god" paradigm.

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.

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?

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.

Would have to agree with you kentu3. MOst of the questions have already been answered if you search.
Another thing that I do before posting a question about ROM "xyz" is to read the whole thread on that rom. You would be or not be suprised as to how many times the same question gets asked.
Thanks again kentu3 for this thread, and a big thanks to the DEV's and MOD's who make this site worth visiting
Hi! New here. I for one like the 10 post rule because it helps keeping it clean and when you surpass the limit you have proven yourself worthy.
Coming from a wide range of other communities, also as admin or moderator, I instantly knew XDA's rule was brilliant. Looking forward to contributing in any way I can.

It is quite an ad-heavy site unless you use a blocker of some description. There's also a mammoth amount of content. I've seen a lot of people mention load times as a downfall, but to be honest I don't notice it taking any longer than some of the other tech sites I frequent
Load times are such a subjective thing though, everyone will differ. What browser do you use? Firefox seems to pop up a lot re: slow load times.
Well I typically do most of my surfing at work, which I use IE right now. Don't have much of a choice. I downloaded Firefox a while back but it never worked right. Not sure if it's because of the firewall or whatever here, (I have no idea how that all works) but Firefox was terrible. I tried to get Chrome but it's blocked too.
The slowness to me isn't really a huge deal, just curious why as other forums I frequent load pretty fast. But the more I surf around here, there is a TON of info.

I use IE (6) at work too Ed, and it's noticeably (horribly) slower than Chrome at home. Likewise, all other options are restriced here for me.
For personal use at home, the latest Chrome with Ad Blocker Pro (free) works extremely well at speeding up the genera;l browsing experience here at XDA. It is a resource-heavy forum so it still takes a little longer to load, but that's the price I pay for the wealth of information here, to me personally anyway
Could be worse, I was on 56k at home until last year when they upgraded our RIM (out in woop-woop)

actually he doesnt. otherwise, he'd know exactly how the phone functions when its busy. anyone can say anything in his signature, it doesnt mean its necessarily true. take it easy and offer some solutions to new comers to the forum.

Ahhhh yes we all like to edit our signatures and put in images or text about phones that we do not own and then we like to post in forums of phones we don't own. Well surprise I own a SGS3 (Not just 1 but 4 in my house) and I guess because the area I live in is so far advanced I have never had this "lockscreen when busy" happen because people from my planet all have CALL WAITING or VOICE MAIL which would be why I posted my initial reply to you.
In closing I'm sure with your positive and kind personality you have shown many will run to your rescue and provide a possible solution. I wait with excitement.

I agree. Keep this up and infractions will follow. This is the second report I have had about this thread.
Fix the problem and move on.

if youve never seen an s3 lockscreened on a busy signal then you dont own an s3.

I think around 2005. Before smart phones were even popular. Times sure have changed.
Or if you call yourself? Nvm it went to voicemail

i'm going to tell u this as nice as possible.. i dont want you replying to my threads anymore.. DONT REPLY TO ANY OF MY THREADS ANYMORE AND DONT PM ME, OTHERWISE I WILL REPORT YOU TO THE MODS FOR HARASSMENT.
You can use the Ignore option to put anyone on your Ignore list. Click on the person's name and then Add To Ignore list. Then you will not see his/her posts, but if that person happens to have something benificial, you will not see that either.
Anyone can use the report button but it is for specific reasons/rule violations. If you see anything that breaks those, by all means report it but there has to be a justifiable reason behind the report for it to be actioned.

Are you following me around? Keeping a journal on me or something? I'm hard on people because they have 0 posts and make new threads on topics that have multiple threads each less than a few days old..
While I may be a **** I also try to be helpful at the same time and not have a piss poor attitude to the people who are trying to help.

That was me trying to be speedy; if you look closely, the number that follows the "?p" is the same on both links. I tried to link a different post but forgot that you need the post ID to be modified, not the post count. Fixed in my post above. Oops!

Can you clarify what happened?
The posts linked above talk about there isn't a need for android dev. vs original android dev., which I understand... but what is the status of Catalclysm? Is it not being worked on anymore?

Alas, Cataclysm has "died" before in the days of the Galaxy Nexus and Nexus 4. Atl4ntis disappeared for a year or more then and reappeared magically for the N5 and gained a large number of users. However, if he can't hack the stress, it was hardly fair to build up an even larger keen collection of users on FOUR different devices. I'm bitterly disappointed, but sadly not surprised. At least he gave his reasons on Pushbullet.
This is a sad day...... for me and the rest of Cataclysm users.

Thanks for that link. But after reading most of the discussion, I think I need a drink (it must be 5:00 somewhere). It turned into a toxic lovefest/hatefest pretty quickly.

Thanks. I think I see his point about fairness, but man, does he have to be so nasty about it? Seems like he didn't really need to insult anyone, except maybe the XDA mods that he felt were unfair to him. But perhaps he feels it's a race thing (who knows, perhaps it is).
Anyway, it's too bad they couldn't solve the problems without going ballistic. Hope it turns out to do something positive.
This is all just sad...

When I read that post of Alex Cruz and the words he is using, I think there is jealousy involved. Why moderators wanted to move a thread is not clear to me.

Yes, and there is a fact. His method 'cata-mod' is and was very original. So I am confused too, and do not understand the moderators concerned. Especially because a thread with discussions about the 'why' is also closed.
This is not a simple 'not following the rules question'. Apparently we are dispirited to talk further.
I'm very sorry for Atl4ntis and Cataclysm.
He's been a very kind guy, always keen to answer help and fix bugs,
His ROM has been the best I've ever seen so far: a lot a customization, great features, great stability. A great balance.
I hope he will eventually be back, but he will be always remembered as one of the best guys and modder here!

I agree with you. He was also creative. The 'cata-mod' is unique. It's a black day the Cataclysm thread is closed.
