For HTC Users good... for Samsung Users bad.
I hope this tool would be released for Samsung devices and for the other Manufactor devices.

No, I did not see it before I posted. I don't spend all day/night on the forums and don't have time to read every post before I post, so I do miss a lot of what is posted. I work full time and have a life outside of the forums.
Having said that, I am sorry for posting something that already had been, it was not intentional. I did not see the previous announcement before I posted.
Regardless, it is great news and a move in the right direction.

Most of us do not spend day and night on the forums, and you don't have to either. Simply use the search function, takes no more than 15 seconds, and you'll know whether it has been posted or not. Simple and easy.

we all understand that many of us has a life outside xda developers and have no time to read all the threads that are posted on xda.
BUT therefore we have a so called "search button" where you could write some words like RSPL or HSPL and that will point you to some threads like the one's you linked to from other website's
don't understand me wrong , it isn't a problem to repost it again but please search first the next time

While similarly *left outside* the dialogs I'd join, I get your message, and that to pass on to the mod(s)... respectfully, of course: so, pose post of worth, as so many read here are to my ploy, er, toil (better), play. Strop and trim, bit by bit...
...and yes, I'm in the middle of a score with that "subtle knife" (Pullman) of "just which bits to cut"... [meanwhile] Yes! Not a brick, yet a conduit! Hooray! And with thanks from those who have and may post, of worth, to have helped me thus.
OK, so I'm a wordy nerdy hacker... Defining the scope of *what's in, what's out" is well within a devel community: that is, this site is useful by such definition.
Thanks!

Lol that made me ROFL, anyways its not a big deal i respect this site and there rules... and as a matter of fact the limit kept me from posting a rom that had more issues then was worth at the momment giving me the much needed time to refine everything so hopefully when my lazyness gets around to it ill reach then ten posts and post somethings of much superior quality!!!

[Q] error 7 applying 4.2 update galaxy nexus

It said it finished the download, it loads the clockwork recovery...
I then select the up[date stuff.... and then it spews this error 7...
any idea's on how to fix this? all the other updates from 4.0 to 4.1 and from 4.1.1 to 4.1.2 with CWM went just fine...

are you flashing the right version rom for your device? all gnex arent the same. you cant flash a gsm rom on a verizon device for example. also, do you have the latest cwm recovery installed? try twrp recovery. also, have you tried just redownloading the rom and flashing again?

A useless post in a useless thread is rain in the ocean. Much like this post. However, status 7 error is easily one of the top 5 beat to death questions on xda. So I'd say, in the interest of usefulness, informing OP of his folly is progress towards sparing the community useless threads, whilst posting the actual information, for the ten thousandth time on xda, is actually not encouraging anything. I call 'em like I see 'em.

if we go your route, then just about every issue in human existence has been written about, posted about, talked about, etc. then there is no point in having any kind of forums, from child raising, to car buying, to xda. might as well just shut them all down because all information is available somewhere already, from a library, to the internet, to stone slabs. but we are all imperfect humans, that do imperfect things. just remember, anything that you will ever ask in your lifetime, or have asked, has been asked already and answered. go search for it instead of bugging your family, friends, teachers, government officials, doctors, or stranger that walks past you on the street with any kind of question.

no its not. there have been 10 threads that i know of dealing with the same thing in the past 2 days.

In the grand scheme of things, and an idealized, purely general, take on existence, you're unquestionably correct. But that excellent segue into reclassifying a cited instance aside, this topic hardly warrants profound defense, in the interest of benevolent information exchange. To your response I would say that this is more akin to asking the manufacturer of your product to read you the instructions. A needless request for assistance, for something that has been more than reasonably supplied already.

I see your point, but I see it more like having a 1,000 page instruction manual and asking someone (or the manufacturer) where the info is located in the book (that's the core idea of a Table of Contents). Just because someone has all the data in their possession, doesn't mean they know where to look or could really understand what they're even reading. But asking someone for help with understanding the instruction manual is totally normal (that's the exact idea behind why there are THOUSANDS of tutorial videos on Youtube and tutorial sites in general). So if someone said "Hey, where in this 1,000 page manual is the answer I'm looking for?" An answer of "The info is there in the book, go look for it" would be pointless.
Back on topic, with error 7, just reboot the recovery (preferably using TWRP) and try again.

^^
And, update TWRP. They've fixed it.

any request for assistance is not needless. the op has a need anyways. i am more than happy to assist anyone in need of assistance. if youre not, you dont have to, no one is making you.

I can see you're train of thought, and I can appreciate that. In any case, you're also correct about getting our young status 7's thread back on track lol didn't mean to hijack.

Unintended side effects of 10 post rule

I understand what the 10-post rule is for - it's to prevent really dumb questions getting in the way of productive work, in addition to preventing spam, obviously. But it can be a big problem for some people.
XDA is pretty much the only forum out there regarding the jailbreak for Windows RT. I'm working on some stuff, including a newly improved jailbreak, but I have no way to talk about it in these forums due to the 10-post rule. I'm a competent programmer who has been reverse engineering for many of her programming years, but can't find anyone to talk to about it. It's clear that I can make some contribution to the RT jailbreak community, as small as it is.
As for trying to get to 10 posts, how can I do that? I have an iPhone, not an Android. I don't know anything at all about Android jailbreaking or flashing, nor would I have any questions to ask about it. The forums I can post to don't really talk about anything outside of Android devices.
By the way, I ported the open source Windows debug tool Process Hacker to Windows RT. Of course, the Process Hacker forum on SourceForge has forced moderation, and apparently their mods haven't been online in a week, so my posts from this weekend haven't showed up yet. Similar situation to here, I guess, except for a different cause.
As for why I'm posting this, well, this is post number 4 out of 10...

You could try pm'ing a senior mod stating and proving that you are a dev and they might lift that restriction off you. But i don't know how long they might take to process that.

A lot of us understand the issue you are posing here. I'm a Windows programmer, but I still had to follow the 10 post rule too. All of us did. There is a forum somewhere, lord knows there are plenty here, where you can post to help someone else out. I didn't know hardly anything about Android when I signed up here at XDA, but I did manage to contribute, and with out complaining about the rules. And now, a year later, I'm a Recognized Contributor. So, it's not that hard.
Rules are rules. Whether here, or out in the real world, they still stand.

Hi I need help

Hello every one my name is casper846969 who do I talk to am looking for the higher guy that control all this like what I post I am from the droid x2 forms and the op took my post down I did not brake ruls and it was in the right place it was in theams well he lock my post and I am have a issue about it because I think that was rude of him when I did not brake any rules. So qho do I go to about this

If you created the thread then YOU are the OP (Original Poster) or it can also mean (Original Post) so I do not know what you mean when you say "OP".

Sorry every one I mean admin the person on top of him
Sent from my Droidx2/Cm7 using xda app-developers app

Why don't you send him a kind pm to ask the reasons?
Edit: Are you talking about this thread? eagleeyetom already explained in his post why it have been closed.

All I can say is................wow

OP I was part of the Droid X2 community too. To summarize the events that took place over the past few weeks: The mods in their infinite wisdom decided our thread offered nothing to the community. Even though some of our posts were helpful to others and informative regarding android and other technology the fun we had was looked down on. This site is for the developers and those of us who do not create roms,kernels or themes but can answer questions are worth little to nothing. Unfortunate turn of events but there's nothing we can do about it....the decision has been made.

Let me clear up this "stupidity." The rules do not apply to everyone the same. If you had alot more inappropriate content and alot more "thanks" given in your thread, you would have been ok. But since you offered nothing to the community but some wasted space on the forum, your thread must and will continue to be closed. Sorry about your luck.

Look bottom line is threads like that have no real purpose. Now you may or may not like it but that is the way it goes.
Making a thread to complain about it will not do you much good.
