It's not really that people assume everyone is a man, it's that "he" is the standard for when you don't know the other person's gender. Similar to why we say "mankind" not "womankind"

[Q] T-Mo/AT&T unlock

Is there a way to make a rooted and SIM-unlocked DInc2 usable on AT&T and T-Mo networks in the US? Any sort of flashable upgrade to any internal components, hacked radio or whatnot that would achieve that purpose?
Search the forum. There you will find the out that this can be done. As well as the fact you shouldn't post questions in the dev section.

What he said.
Also, xtc clip or call vzw and ask for an unlock code.

I have searched and I couldn't find much on this topic either. Granted I did it using tapatalk which leaves a bit to be desired in the search department. My point is that it might be more helpful overall to just answer the question rather than refuse simply because someone missed a thread and can't manage to find it using search for some reason.

Well, I do believe it was because this thread was posted in the wrong section.

I understand that, but it wouldn't be entirely uncool to answer the question along with any chastising someone might feel is necessary. or at least help someone in the right direction, which doesn't include the entirely unhelpful "search" comment all too common to forums with regulars.

If it is, I can't find it.
I have re-posted the question in the General forum, but all I got there so far is more of the same arrogant ignorance that some of the replies demonstrated here.
I believe it is perfectly clear from my original post that the phone is _already_ SIM unlocked and rooted.
Let's move further discussion to the General forum to avoid moderators' wrath.
If I'm not mistaken its a global phone. However the GSM frequency used abroad is different than in the states. Therefore I don't think it's possible.

It works with ATT and TMo. If you are talking about 3G on them, then that's a no. Hardware limitation.
Why posting here?

I was looking to share an idea with an experienced developer so we can get a project started but it seems like no one is interested. I don't want to put my idea out in the open and was willing to share it through private message.

Lol no this does not belong in the development section.... it belongs in the general android software dev forum, not the e4gt dev forum. And you should have posted in the right place to begin with, mods have better things to do than monitor for things posted in the wrong place... if you want it moved report it and ask nicely

Flash ROMs without rooting? Cmon man read the damn forums before you make a new thread. Jeez. I thought new users were required to watch the I'm a noob at XDA Developers video.

LOL, okay for one don't get pissy around here, especially to someone that has far more experience with the site than you do.. That's very frowned upon at xda. Yes you are a noob, and in the video it said do not click the new thread button unless what you are asking cannot be found in a thread that already exists, and if the thread doesn't directly answer your question, don't make a new thread. Ask the damn question in a thread that already exists or pm a member that looks like they know what they are doing. But do NOT make a new thread unless it is absolutely necessary. You have no idea how many threads like this are being made that do not need to be made. We are getting sick of them. All it takes is a few minutes of looking around. Hell whenever you named this thread when you first created it the search system showed you similar threads that have already been made.
Use the search system.
Look around.
Don't click the new thread button unless you are 100% sure that there are no threads that answer your question.
EDIT : Also, DO NOT make stupid threads, like how do I use XXX's toolkit or something like that. The xda community will not spoon feed noobs. You guys have to learn like we did. Trial and error. Trust me. Once you learn how to use things without having to ask questions you will feel better.

+1 And starting multiple threads with "sub" as a title is a joke.
Yeah, you can ask and we are not forced to help you neither. Stop raging at people here because your a lazy little fat di*k. We are not your slaves.
Why do we have search engines as google, bing, yandex?
Why do we have a search function in this website?
Why do we have threads, sticky threads with usefull info, why do we have detailed guide threads?
You can do a little research yourself and read a few threads. Wont take you more THAN 5 minutes to figure out your questions
You caused so much drama for this little information. Here, you cant use a custom kernel with locked bootloader

Locked bootloader = Stock kernels only...
If u want custom kernels...u need to unlock your bootloader... :good:
Nd this is not a troubleshooting forum...its actually a developer forum....

You cannot flash kernels with a locked bootloader

You have been a member of xda since 2013. You should know to post questions in q&a section.
My apologies, I thought since my question was specifically about which ROM is tracking on top right now that it made sense to ask here. If I offended you or others, I am sorry.

"which ROM is the best" is also an unacceptable question on xda. you should read the intro posts for new members.
good thing a dev has not answered you, they are the ones that will be offended.
It's not OK to ask for people's opinions?
Sent from my SM-T800 using Tapatalk
Maybe I should have rephrase my original thought. At first I thought to ask which other rom I should other than liquidsmooth because the wifi was broken, but I thought that would be offensive. But here goes, which rom is stable and not broken?

Don't take it personally, this is xda and as such there are a lot of devs here, pretty much everything android starts here, so you need to tread carefully.
I understand you were just trying to be straight to the point, but such questions in such a manner have been known to cause upset.
I'm not taking it personally. I will just refrain from asking for opinions in the future.
