TWRP - Xoom Android Development

Does anyone know if anyone is working on TWRP for the xoom?

Even I would like to know if there was a version of TWRP for the zoom. But this is the wrong section. This really doesn't belong in the development section.

/me opens google page, types twrp into search box, hits enter, clicks top link, selects my device from drop down list, xoom not listed.
/me wipes sweat from brow after all that hard work.

XDA is getting tooo long!

Hi just a little thought, every year HTC bring out numerous devices, and also XDA's index gets a whole lot bigger, and models harder to find like the old way of just scrolling to the model.
Could xda not split the models?
eg. models pre xda diamond into a subforum like classic.xda-developers.com
as my fingers starting to hurt scrolling with the mouse, and its conflicting pain upon a human being
thanks
why not just use the search feature
yes i know theres a search feature, but im trying to make things easier, all i want is to scroll to latest models (which happen to be at end of the list) i'm not gonna use search feature just to type in touch hd2 and a whole lotta topics/posts come up, i'd use that if i wanted to find something specific.
this is how it should be: click xda dev, scroll to phone, enter subforums. easy.
now its: click xda dev, scroll scroll scroll scroll scroll look scroll look scroll look scroll, find, enter subforums.
Yep, there is a newly created search box on top right to go straight to the forums you wish.
Perhaps a 'favourites' would be a good idea though, so you only see the sections you've selected.
i just would like to also say, the new search thing is ugly at top, looks like its been thrown together quite quickly. maybe like sh500 says favourites or even a couple of drop downs instead of teh new search.
drop down1:
Win mobile - activates [1]
Android - activates [2]
drop down 2:
[1]win mobile models
[2]android models
or even better, be able to hide any forums, and it will remember your hidden/shown settings through username.

The first bit is what they already have? When you over your mouse of the 'Devices by OS or manufacturer'.
It's really not that much of an issue when you use plugins to make your surfing easier...

Why dont you create a new xda-forum for Pre-Windows Mobile deivces?
So creata a domain of: prewm.xda-developers.com
'jump to device' search box is working perfect, i dont feel need for any "improvements" , separating models to different pages/domains will make things worse and harder to navigate. maybe it is possible to make per user option in control panel to hide unwanted subforums from index page, but i am not sure how would it affect site server load.
can't it just be changed so it goes new phones to old phones at the bottom instead of vice versa?
The XDA forum redesign is launching soon. We'll have several ways to make it much more easy to navigate the forum index. This was a core focus of the redesign
Is the vbulletin being upgraded as well?

that's a good one for now!
Jump to device search on top is OK for PC, but it's not that easy at phone, especially if you have no-js opera mini.
And browsing xda with phone is nigthmare because index page is loading for ages.

Help: How to Copy/Paste

I've using my NG for a week now and still trying to figure out how to copy/paste.
I see the check mark come up when I highlight text but I can't figure out how to get the text to copy. I tap the check mark but doesn't seem to do anything.
Any good YouTube videos or anything that show how to do this?
It's not the check mark you want, next to the words "select all" you'll see an icon that looks like two pages, clicking that will show a dialogue at the bottom of your screen saying, "text copied to clipboard". Pressing and holding again will give you the option to paste.
Thank you , feel pretty dumb now.
Or just simply tap highlighted text again ....

Don't be. I had the same problem myself. It's a crappy system. Moreover good questions like this create a good reference for new users moving forward.
There are no such things a stupid questions or feeling dumb, just learn from your mistake or the hole in your knowledge and try to pass on what you know the next time someone else needs help.
I had exactly the same issue finally figured it out after my third attempt at copying from a browser window!
I wish there was an easier way to scroll the cursor around tho, i miss the trackball on my N1. They really should add a popup onscreen wheel onto the keyboard.
Off topic sorta, but I was just reading an article where one of the Cons of Android vs iOS is that Android doesn't have system wide Copy/Paste.
I lol'd
i'm not able to cut and paste from within tweet deck like I could on my Gingerbread. Quite frustrating
Theres a manual that covers all such essentials.
Get it by googling "samsung galaxy nexus" to go to googles official site for the phone, click register, bung in your email and they will send you a link to the manual.
The manual that should have come in the box IMHO!!

Google Play/Market wont work

Anyone knows how do i get Google Play/Market to work on my phone.
I get a message that i have to create an account.
Here's my story.
Flashed 7.1 for the very first time on my Desire and worked like a charm until i started on Google Apps.
I downloaded the version CyanogenMod 9 on the SD card and installed.
On the first attempt i did not get any Google Application except for the Google Play/Market.
I could not use it because it kept on throwing Sever Error. I installed Market Enabler as a fix but uninstalled it because it did not figure out how to use it.
I then hard rebooted the phone, cleared Dalvik Cache and re-installed the CyanogenMod 9 (Google Application package again). I did not get any lock screen but this time it installed Facebook and Twitter. There was no Google e-mail available so i could not use market again.
The third time i used CyanogenMod7. Installation was painless but as soon as the phone shows the lock screen it went back to the loading screen with Android icon.
The fourth time i tried CyanogenMod9 again but this time i only got Google Play/Market.
I used 5 presious hours yesterday and had to roll back to the original ROM because i could not get the Market to work.
Reply in the right section and you might get a decent reply, this is development only. you need to put it in Q/A section or in the thread for the rom you used.
Wrong section. Reported.
Don't post here anymore - it's no use bumping this to the top of the forum, only annoying.
As for you, OP - you're an I-D-I-D-O-T-H.

A little respect wouldn't go amiss. (as your here to 'help' as your sig says). The poster above you said all that needed to be said.
Erm - if I was going to infract the OP for posting in the wrong section, I would definitely infract the rest of you for flaming.
This is very simple: report the post. Do not reply. Do not flame. Do not pass Go. Do not collect $200. Let me deal with 'training' the user to post in the correct forums - that's my job.
To the OP, some guidelines:
1. do not post in Development.
2. if you have to ask, 'should this go in development?' the answer is almost always no.
3. when in doubt, see rule 2, and post it in General. If it belongs in Development, it'll get moved.
Posting in Development is like true love - when it happens, you'll know!
A bit lame but I hope that helps.
Who the hells Erm?
kite edit: just my personal take on "um" or "uh".
Back on topic!

very stupid problem with auto correct on samsung keyboard

I want a phonepad t9 4x3 style keyboard that has t9 auto correct. Apparently samsung doesn't want this for me. Whenever I type a word, the mess of letters that I entered on the keypad are the default option, and for EVERY WORD i have to click the correct word next to it. Even if it's just "you" or there". I was reading online and a lot of other people are experiencing this too. Does anyone know how to fix this? I've hard reset it a few times to no avail.
This is my default option as it comes up, highlighting the mess of letters instead of to the right like it should. I watched a video on youtube and the guy was showing how it types and it was defaulting to the right, but mine isn't. It makes no sense.
and yes, we're talking about toilet paper haha
alright so I tried to use system app remover to uninstall the keyboard and reinstall it, but when I restore it from a backup, it doesn't do anything. I even put it in the apps folder by hand and its not reinstalling. I think that my backup is corrupted. does anyone have a copy of it that they can throw up here, or tell me what I'm doing wrong?

Printable version for posts in XDA forum

I haven't been on XDA for many months but I'm sure there used to be a "Printable Version" option somewhere for forum posts. I've looked at half a dozen posts this morning but haven't been able to find anything.
In the FAQ (https://forum.xda-developers.com/faq.php?s=&do=search&q=printable&match=all&titlesonly=0) I found a mention of it under Thread Tools but I either I'm blind or it's vanished.
"At the top of each thread, there is a link called 'Thread Tools'. By clicking on this link, a menu will appear with a number of options:
Show Printable Version - this will show you a page with the thread post content in a reduced graphics format that is more 'printer friendly'."
Please tell me I'm just being blind and dumb and point me to where I should be looking!
Thanks in advance

The 2010 site theme has thread tools. 2013 beta has a print button, and I'm not sure it's an option on other themes. Perhaps it was abandoned, since most browsers have their own print options.
Hope that helps!

Thanks for taking the time to reply Darth. I'm guessing it might have something to do with the option of removing ads (which is certainly new to me) but completely understandable. There used to be a "simplify" version when printing via chrome but seems google have removed that on version 49.0.2623.112 (yes, I own up to being a guilty XP user) and selecting comes out all squwif. As I don't have internet at home I print off the long forums with several hundred posts to read later on .

You could attempt switching to 2010 theme to see if it does what you want when you want to print. Then switch back to your preferred theme otherwise.
Just a thought.
