Would be great if you guys could set up a BUY / SELL section on here. Having these posts always within the forum topics is not really nice! (Even though I bought miy 4rd Hermes through that )
I saw it in other forums and it really seems to be a good way of handling this BUY / SELL stuff.
I agree it would be a handy section / forum if it was made part of this section would seem the most logical
only problem i can see with having a trading forum (and dont get me wrong, i would LOVE to have a trade forum on here) is that because there are SO many people on here, it just increases the chances of someone getting scammed or using it as an opportunity to get scammed!
i dont see why there couldnt be a classfieds section opened but you would have to have a certain amount of posts and would have to be 'approved' to use them by one of the mods (approval would mean you would either have to prove you are a legitimate buyer/seller or showing where you have other 'dealings' like on other forums and/or feedback like ebay, other forum feedbacks and anything that will support you and not basically make you seem like the ideal 'scammer'! i.e from nigeria, have an ebay account and $40 million dollar for the mods brother!
Yikes, In my humble opinion...
IMHO, this is one of those things best left to the eBays of the www. Just asking for more than you really want to deal with with almost no benefit. Besides, aren't there enough buy/sell places on the www?
buy/sell section
I'd like to see this, too, although I understand why the mods/admins might not think it's suitable here...

Hey, I'm new here, and just got a HTC Desire recently, I mistakenly updated to Froyo before I knew that I couldn't root and now I want to try downgrading my HBoot to 0.8 so that I can root.
I want to follow this:
htcpedia.com/forum/showthread.php?t=2934
But I need a RUU (No idea what it is really) to do that, so I'm looking at this list:
forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=695667 but I honestly have no idea how I can see which one I need to download, so can anyone help me out there? Where can I see it on my phone? I believe it's unbranded and all that.
You can't. You're stuffed until someone breaks the new HBoot, which may be never.
mate, i understand you're new, but please read forum rules.
hboot 0.92 is not downgradeable at the moment, as explained on some already opened threads...
unfortunately, you'll have 2 wait.
Well, it looks like someone succeeded in downgrading from 0.75 to 0.66 without doing any such breaking? I'd like to try it just to confirm, what harm can it do? Haven't seen anyone actually having tried that way?
I also did read forum rules, I'm not asking for a way to downgrade it, just asking for some information in how I choose what RUU I need? >.<
no, the rule was to search before posting a new topic.
there's another thread with discussions about this subject: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=741672
Aye mate, I did search before, I've been browsing around for most of the day, what I'm asking is how do I see what RUU I need to download for my phone, not how do I downgrade HBoot.
but mate, whichever RUU you get won't fit because you have updated your HBOOT to 0.92. that's what's being discussed in the thread I pointed you...
if you dare reading...
Yeah, I'm reading, and I saw that the method was tried, I'm still interested in what a RUU is
And sorry about that, I only read like around the latest pages, not the first 2, which was the one it was on >.<

RUU stands for ROM Upgrade Utility and it checks your HBoot version prior to installing any ROM.
Hope this helps! )

there's no point in having rules and manuals if people are lazy enough to bypass them every time they have a doubt.
anyway, feeling better now andrea? relieved maybe?
enjoy your week.
lol !
yes dmpwd, I was already feeling quite well, waiting for Paul's rom as many others...i came to delete my post because it was going to be taken negatively, but I like the kindness that comes between the lines of your answers....FYI I am now quite amused, thanks!

Is there not also a rule about flaming?
Would hardly call a copy paste of the rules for flaming..
But if you saw it as that, then i apologize.
Just getting tired of post after post asking the same things by newly registered users.
I wish that reading and searching had first priority, instead of spamming the board with countless new topics.

The rules are there for a reason, let's not forget that! To be honest, these forums are starting to get less and less useful, because of the amount of redundant threads that are being started.
If we had more robust/regular moderation, this would be less of an issue, but it seems we don't have a Desire-owning mod!
Regards,
Dave

this is my point of view and what I was trying to explain, but some people even called me a nazi/idiot for that. that's another rule-breaking activity, but anyway...
hope the OP is happy now.
I wish that reading and searching had first priority, as well as newbie help, instead of producing 2 full pages on newbie behavior, but anyway...

Yeah, and I did search before posting, I think people just got the question "How do I downgrade from 0.92" instead of my original question that asked what RUU I'd need to get for my phone, if it was possible. Lol.
And also, I wonder how the hell this topic got onto rules and stuff like that, so lets just leave it at this
So this is my main forum that I check Evo news... but I am always afraid to ask a question because someone could tell me that my question is silly and to do a forum search before I ask. I also noticed most of the questions I would like to ask are my more Android than Evo question.
So my question is... is there an Android forum people could recommend that is Newbie friendly, and good to Evo people? I figured I would ask here as there are so many Android forums and, if you point me in the right direction, I will never have to bother you will the my stupid questions.
Androidcentral.com is my favorite been going there since my G1 days great people and very helpful.
Uh, just do a search, and if you can't find an answer, ask. #HTC-EVO on Freenode is a good place to get some help, and Google and Wikipedia can be useful too.
Sprint Android Forum
I'm a moderator over at SprintDroids.com. Our forum is geared specifically towards Android phones on the Sprint network. Currently we have about 1200 registered users and we get more and more every day. We are very newbie friendly, and everybody there is very eager to help out any way they can. Sign up, post a welcome thread, I'm sure you'll enjoy it over there. My s/n is MetalHead there as well (except w/o the underscores) so don't forget to say hi if you sign up. Hope to see you over there

Yeah, best and possibly the largest general Android forum. You can also try the Evo section of PPC forums.
XDA is indeed really hostile toward 'newbies', but has the most information/hacks/roms/themes by far.
