Hi,
I really hope you can help...
I'm looking for a fast, stable rom for my P3600 (danish version). I don't think that there is any 6.0/6.1 danish rom out there, so an english would be great.
Sooo... please give me some recommandations. I would like to try it out tonight...

Please, not another "recommend me a ROM" thread!

Not a very usefull answer. Its understandable, that you as an expert regard this as a stupid question, but I simply havent got the time to read through more than 50 pages of posts - sorry.
On the contrary - a link to a page like this would have been usefull: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=385579
I found it, installed it, and it works brilliant! This could have saved me from hours of reading...

...and still you've learnt from it on your own rather than me or someone else giving you a link to what we like.
We all went through almost every ROM till settling for one. Ones were too [email protected]#, others were too $%^ and so on. The point is that liking a ROM is subjective, many users like speed, others like functionality, others the looks, others prefer memory, others prefer lots of apps, others prefer ballance!
Which one of those are you? Can you answer this question without trying at least one ROM from every category I've listed?
People don't answer to threads like yours for two main reasons:
1. there are plenty similar threads started and people get tired of giving same answers to same questions posted by users who are not willing to use the search function to get the info. Hey, it is always easier to just post and ask, huh?
2. ROMs are subjective like the people who make them, like the people using them. We like sweet, others bitter, some love blondes, others redheads, I like fast ROMs, others app packed. Bottom line: free will! Let the user decide for his ROM/chef of his choice. Plus, reading the ROM thread tells you almost everything about bugs, fixes, tweaks, tips, etc.
There's no bad blood in it, it's just we're too tired of answering a question that has been asked so many times and which can't even be answered!
Hope it's clear now!
P.S.: Thanks, but I'm not even 5% close of being an expert, but I search and read alot!

everybody who came in a forum and need help can have a constructive awnser...
it is true that there is a lot of subject like this one but as he said read 50 page to find an info was very boring...
when i post to find my french rom i was glad to find someone to know where to search in the mess of the forum.
just be nice with noobs because in every noob there is a future senior member lol
...and every month there are new roms, some have new builds, other have just other programs or languages in it ....
so i think it's a good question once in a while. i am lost either...
anyway, here you can find all the roms in a list. (don't know if they're up to date.)

And maybe it wouldn't be so messy, if there wasn't so many threads created just to ask a question that has already been answered in 10 similar threads. Or threads created to ask a question about and issue of a particular ROM, when it should be asked in the ROM thread....
Many situations contribute to the mess you're refering to...
Even the forum search has been enhanced with google search, directly in the forum's search function, but still, it seems to be easier to many users, to just ask instead of searching.
Sometimes a thread is started with something like this:
"I've searched for this but couldn't find it...."
When this happens, search some more, use different keywords, because 95% of the times, the question has already been answered before.
I'm not flaming anyone with this, and I don't have nothing against noobs, as i consider myself one, but please use search, read and then read some more.
I have successfully rooted my phone following many posts and thread here and currently running Runnymede AIO V5.1.2.I had my HTC Desire for about a month now but tonight for the first time noticed that when pressing the personalize tab on the screen the Google web page opens! Any help appreciated.
Go into settings menu and explore. You have much to experience before you need to ask for advice.
You pointed me to the right direction; I have managed to solve the problem in the end.
And learned something along the way, perhaps?
I honestly don’t understand you, you are being to patronizing, I simply asked for advice, after all this Q&A board, if you are willing to help that’s great but there is no need for added comments.
No, really, I'm not being patronizing. I'm a noob at these things, but I discovered I learn much more from tips that aren't 100% informative and I hoped that you would feel the same and not bear a grudge because I didn't give a straight answer at once
In fact. I'm very thankful towards all seniors who have never properly answered my questions.
As I said before you pointed me to right direction and I thank you for that, but that's not argue about other things now and continue to learn things on this fantastic forum.
This is a serious question. I'm not trolling, flaming, or anything else you might think.
I really don't understand how to get a question(s) answered on this site. I don't care how much or how little information I give it is never answered. I will google my questions, search the forums, read and reread developer threads and even search youtube to try to find my answers. When all else fails, I post here. Never have any of my questions been answered.
I would really love some advice on this considering I'm a noob at most of this rooting stuff and I have some questions. I don't want someone to hold my hand or anything like that. I just want some helpful links or advice.
If anyone could tell me how I should word my posts so they would be answered I would be so appreciative.
Again I am not trying to be rude, I have the utmost respect for the mods and developers here. I just don't know what I am doing wrong to never get questions answered.
I'm sure you can understand how frustrating it is to come home after work and look back at a post hoping for an answer and nothing is there other than a locked thread. I don't want to be that person that annoyingly keeps reposting something over and over. I just want to learn what I am doing wrong, fix it, and hopefully help others out when I learn from my own mistakes.
Moved to About XDA.
Well the key is to post in the right section, if its a device question post in that devices sub forum so other users see it.
Its possible if your asking in a low activity sub forum then it will not get answered

Just my suggestions to get your posts answered:
1. Extensive searching before posting:
Maybe you are not the first one with this question or issue.
Search for other users posted the same or similar problem and look if they got propper answers.
2. If you can not find anybody else asked the same or similar question, then search for descriptions/explanations which might solve your issue.
Maybe the answer is already there (even without an explicit question).
3. If neither the question nor the answer can be found, then you have to find the proper place for posting your question.
Is there a forum for your device, then go to that forum.
Is there a dedicated Question & Answer (Q&A) sub forum, then go there.
Is there a thread for asking / even for new users, with many posts and the last post is from today, then go there and post your question there.
This step is very important, as you have to find a place where your post will be seen by some experienced users which know the answer.
4. Now let's check the contents of your post itself.
Please think about the xda rules (no offence, no personal attack, English, etc.).
Describe as much as possible, what might be useful for others to think about the possible cause of your issue and a good solution to fix it or to give your the right answer.
What device/model, what app(s), what firmware version (ROM, kernel, modem, etc.), what was before, what is now, what have you done, what has happened in between, etc.
Maybe not all those information is really needed to solve the issue or give your the answer, but are you sure that it is not relevant?
If you are not sure, then provide this info.
Be polite, stay as "objective" as possible ... most of the time, emotions are not needed to solve the issue
Maybe you say something like "I would appreciate any kind of suggestion, even if it does not help to solve the issue for me.", or "Thanks in advance.".
It's a kind of motivation for other users to be confident to answer your post, even if they are not absolutely sure that it really can solve your issue.
Good luck !

Notes for help seeker :
1. Make the situation SHORT and NEAT
2. Highlight the main problem
3. provide info by point form like me
4. always provide related keyword for SEO , so that similar help seeker will come to your thread and share their experience too.
After looking over your posts I see you seem to have alot of issues related to your camera and SD cards.
Providing a logcat is the biggest help. As for one rom you used. The MIUI rom it is best to check the MIUI site as no development is done here for it. Only simple ports.

Who's talking about me
Some issues are quite complex or involved, and very few people will be able to answer them.
Camera is often one of these things unfortunately. In some ways, the silly, often-asked questions get more answers than the "real" ones. The fact nobody else has had the issue means nobody else can likely help...
A shame, but hopefully you can get it sorted out!
Don't get me wrong, but why don't you consider this as an opportunity to learn more?
Try learning what causes the problem, what is supposed to happen, why does it happen, why doesn't it happen...
Take this as an opportunity to learn more...about android, about hardware, about kernels and roms...
Not saying that it would be easy...
Hopefully, you may be able to do something about it...
And who knows, maybe XDA would get lucky with a new dev on the block
