Anyone know how to install Windows Mobile ( CrossBow ) on the orbit?
if you can't use search on the forum you are unlikely to be able to figure out how to install crossbow.
edit - you have already posted in the thread that says no-one has done it yet?? Why start another one?
1 i cant be assed to search
2 can it be done
3 ur gay
1. Don't expect an answer then
2. Use the search
3. What are you 12 years old?
Even if you are too stupid to search - are you too stupid to read the thread you actually posted in about this topic?

Please be careful when calling people stupid as it can be demeaning to millions of others, remember the politically correct society we all must live in these days!!
But the search isn't a bad thing to try and use, understanding the results can be difficult at times though! - Mike
look ladies, one guy calls another guy gay, so the other guy calls him stupid, sounds fair to me
@patel989:
very good
IF you Think HD2 is going to have the WP7 upgrade do the following:
POST:
YES OR NO
We can then look back and see who was right and who was wrong
I'm going to start with saying
YES
Why not...
I answer: NO
I answer: Why not post some facts from the net or else simply STFU!
I believe we will have it... YES
Possibly ...
I have to agree to :YES
How about this?
If you have no clue, why don't you simply SHUT THE F*CK UP?
It helps nobody if clueless people post their useless opinions here. You either know something, or you wait until there is something official.
IF you Think this thread is a waste of braincells do the following:
POST:
[size=+3]YES[/size] OR [size=+3]NO[/size]
We can then look back and see who's an imbecile
I'm going to start with saying
[size=+3]YES[/size]
There are other threads discussing this at the moment. This one is new and already some have forgotten their manners. Very unfortunate... thread closed.
I just wanted to post because i see on most threads theres usually someone has to be a cheeky arrogant **** to someone that is simply asking for help and doesn't have much knowledge.
My understanding was you came here for help and support and to try and help others is it not? But yet, when people ask for help they often get slaughtered for various reasons such as: wrong section, repeated thread, not searching properly, using the wrong punctuation etc (the last one was exagerated a bit but it wouldnt surprise me)
Basically before i came here years ago I would not have even known what Root is/does, why you would flash different ROMs etc and i have learned everything thanks to XDA and the various genious' that make it all possible.
I just dont think its right the way some people THINK they can talk/treat others and it is certainly uncalled for.
For example when i first came here I had the Xperia X10 and was very interested in the work and came across a problem when flashing someones ROM but I didnt have enough posts to reply so had to start a thread in General asking for help and the response i got you think i had just launched a nuke and killed thousands.
I know i will probably get slaughtered for this but basically i think this is a problem that should be addressed and no one else will say anything about it so i will!
And one final thing i cant understand. What could possibly make you feel good about making a **** out of others??? If you are one of these people could you kindly do me a favour and go play chicken with an incoming 12 Gauge Round from point blank range. That is all
i know some.. i can name them too.. neh, they know themselves..
Yup, one of my pet hates when the more experienced members on sites (not just here) are rude to new members.
We all started out once, treat people the way you would like to be treated!
Now p*ss off......
Use Search, you'll save thousands (of posts).
You could've used search and save us from another thread talking about helpful people
It relieves stress being a **** to others online knowing you won't get shot for it afterwards. Words from a stranger can't hurt enough for it to be an actual problem can it? There are now two active similar threads on this issue.

When i first joined here,this is what people told me:
"If you need step by step instructions,you shouldnt be doing anathing to your phone"
"You double posted the samething"
"wth are you talking?re read the OP"
Im still am a NEWBIE,but atleast i got what i wanted.From time to time,if you ask correctly and make it seem innocent,you'll get your answer

Quoted for truth.
When I joined XDA I took a couple days and just searched for what I needed, learned as much as I could and THEN asked questions.
The problem here is many of the veteran users are tired of people coming in, and in their first ever post asking for something that if they literally did 5 minutes of searching would find.
As well if you are not technical or its hard for you to understand what you're doing and why, you should reconsider rooting your phone as there is nobody but this place to come help you fix it if you screw up. And while yes it is simple to do, its also easy to screw up.
So the vets see these people come in, ask (or sometimes demand) step by step instructions because they have no clue, and have proven they can't take 5 minutes to try and figure it out themselves. They are now jaded to it after it happens at least 4 or 5 times a week, so cut them some slack.
Answer me this. Would you go out, buy a Corvette, then decide you want to supercharge it so you go to the local corvette club meet. Walk in and say "which of you guys is gonna tell me exactly how to put this supercharger on my car, and I've never turned a wrench in my life." Seriously, what happens here is the digital equivalent.
I'm just being a di** to people who deserve it, who are idiots. When you trying to join this site, you need to watch a movie about the rules and sh*t. They guy CLEARLY says that you NEED TO USE THE F-IN SEARCH BUTTON before you post. Because you're NEVER the first one asking about something big. If people just could stop ignoring that ONE SIMPLE RULE! I would def stop being a d*ck to stupid a*s people.. Thanks..

+1. I find it much faster/easier using google to search xda than the actual xda search function.
I also did the same as Rogue Leader. I spent a few days scanning through alot of threads before posting and i found most of the answers i were looking for.
Everyone understands that newbs have to start somewhere (since i was a newb/still am lol when i got the xplay) but surely most people will have been on a fourm before? Or have used google to search before? No excuses really.
In the time it takes for someone to reply or after the flaming has stopped they could have easily found the answer they were looking for.

What you decide to do or not to do does not depend on others action or doing here on xda. You choose to be rude and a ****. How come you feel this resentment. You most have an anger problem and they are just easy targets for ventilating that agro. Who are you to judge others wheter they derserve a flaming or not. You clearly state your own level of knowledge in your own post and you can whine all day long and lay the responsebility on them for you being a ****. I'm gobsmacked over people like you, you take as little responsebility as the multi posters does. Learn how to behave or shut up and don't bloody answer nor look in those threads. Do yourself that favor.

Im with you there the XDA search is horrible. you could type in "how to root xperia play" and it could return "how to correctly use anal beads" lol
That being said i just google whatever i'm after followed by the key "XDA" at the end and im sorted

That one was definitely me... But, I am pretty sure I didn't have those mistakes in the original post.
That could have all been me But that definitely was a time when there was like 100 threads asking the same question and you decided to make a whole new thread even though there were several threads just below yours that had already been answered.
I am one of those people who actually will ask google before asking the internet for answers, and it has saved me a lot of flames.
ALSO, you posted the same thread twice, maybe three times and I fkn hate people who think they will get more attention by the continuous posting of the same question! Just like the 12 year old who has been posting multi-threads asking how to fix his wi-fi in all the forums.
TBH you still annoy me... Must be the "acting innocent" thing... Grinds my gears, bro.
Some people are so lazy nowadays

This reminded me of Peter Griffin lol
I totally agree.
When I first joined here, I found the arrogance and rudeness of certain members truley awful.
Worse, people seemed to follow these 'respected' members like sheep.
It is like this most places on the internet, keyboard warriors are aplenty.
But even still...it still shocks and irks me the treatment I received here initially.
Since then I have found many nice, helpful and knowledgable people on these forums and have learnt to ignore the billy big shots.

Anal beads run Android? Man droid really does do "everything"!
But when you type in your "title" when you create a new thread, other threads with the same name pops up. So if you start typing like "How do i ROOT my xperia play?" I'll promise you that some threads about the exact same topic will pop up
if you want to use google search inside the xda forum, use this chain in google: "site:http://forum.xda-developers.com/" + the thing you want to search. For example:
site:http://forum.xda-developers.com/ rooting xperia play
Of course, this applies to any other website.
I myself am new here, and im amazed at how great this site is. I've gotten everything i could have ever asked from here and am so greatful for the Dev's here - Your work never goes unnoticed, thanks!
However, i've been noticing people who are just absolutely rude and explosive with some people's questions...
Im talking about:
"Did you even Google or Search the damn site before posting? I mean for Christ's Sake what is wrong with you people? Can't even do a damn Search. Learn how to do shiz on your own man. " ... For example
1) People do searches but dont end up finding what they want
2) Keywords make all the difference. Maybe a keyword was why they didn't find what they want.
3) They just didn't find what they wanted.
Now, if you usually look at the person who posted an "ignorant question", look how many posts they have.
Usually little, maybe 20 or less.
The posts will usually be questions
They just want help. Great people who help here.
But honestly, people tell me to come here for help, and i do. I get my help, thankfully.
I had a different account here before, where i was asking for a SPB Shell feature... I looked everywhere, couldn't find it. I was yelled at, and someone told me it was on i think page 76 of a thread, which i tried searching...
76 pages X 10 posts per page = 760 posts. i COULD HAVE missed it.
If you want to help, do so by all means. But consider where the person is comming from. Help them, but please don't be rude. Imagine what the effect it has on the person..
Thanks!
Yeah I remember once I wanted to share info on this mad smart phone case I bought and simply coz I didn't post pictures I got totally flamed...the troll didn't realize for me to be able to do that essentially I needed either two phones or one extra camera

This is a question, so should be in the "Q&A" forum, not here - although I'm sure a Mod will move it quickly enough.
I'm not going to answer your question as it took me less than 10 seconds and Google to find the answer - so I'm sure you can do the same.
Read the XDA Rules and search before asking ...
excuse me dear......
I had opened many tabs from different sub forum of here... and I mistaked about correct place...
please move it... thanks...
I had searched many in google... but i didn't find answer...

Exactly the same link I put under the word "Google" on my post - if the OP had been bothered to look.
I get pi$$ed off with people on here who claim to have searched - when it is so obvious that they haven't at all.
What it comes down to is they actually don't know how to word the search correctly so as to get a decent result.

Sir,
I know how to search and az I told I searched before open the topic :|
but it's obscure :|
read this page:
nfcworld.com/nfc-devices/motorola-droid-razr/
-----------------------
The Motorola Droid Razr has not been advertised as an NFC handset, but a teardown has revealed it carries an NXP PN544 NFC controller chip.
-----------------------
and comments that is it's below:
Q: Yea, but are we saying that with ICS the RAZR will have NFC enabled?
A: I don't think anyone knows the answer to that yet...
So........
you don't have to learn I do :|
but it's obscure, so I ask it

I think that you have answered your own question as well as anybody on XDA possibly can. Nobody knows - although the chip is in the phone, it may never be accessible to software, whether it is GB, ICS or JB.

So if I'm reading all of this correctly, you're magic 'Google search'(Complete with the extra douche topping of your little animated superiority video) produced no actual answers? God forbid that someone comes onto an Android developer's message board to find out if someone here has an inside scoop, so to speak.
Not everybody is as mighty with the Google as you are, not every Google search returns the same result. You have to word your searches correctly, and some people are bettet than others. It used to be that you came onto message boards and could ask a question like this and the answer would be 'Well, it looks like the phones have the proper hardware, but it's going to require an OS level bit of code before anyone can use it, and nobody has given an actual timeframe for when this will be done, if ever.'. Now, it's a bunch pf snarky A-holes trying to see who can deliver the killing blow.
It was a legitimate question, and this was a legitimate forum to post it in. Your special Google search still didn't really answer the question, and it didn't answer the question from the perspective of Android developers, who would be MY first resource if I were looking, too. If you don't like the question being asked, then for God's sake, don't read the fracking thing. There is no law of physics that dictats that you can't pass up a post on here without reading it. I don't really understand people like you who get their panties in a twist because someone posted a question on a message board. How did this question being posted here impact your life? Me, U can't stand condescending rude people, especially in places where people go for help, so I like to call them out on it.

I'm awfully sorry to have offended your sensibilities, but who the f**k do you think you are? You sign up to XDA and the very first post you put is to resurrect a thread that is 3 1/2 months old - not to contribute anything useful, but simply to try and pick a fight?
I actually commented on the OP predominantly because it was clearly in the wrong forum - that is what the Q&A or the device specific forums exist for.
I also ended the thread with;-
I think that you have answered your own question as well as anybody on XDA possibly can. Nobody knows - although the chip is in the phone, it may never be accessible to software, whether it is GB, ICS or JB.

which is no different to what you just posted. It is obvious that the OP doesn't use English as his first language, so trying to get all technical is of no use. The OP 'Thanked' me for my post, so he obviously had no problem with it, and he hasn't been back on here since as he is one of the many who sign up here, ask one question and are never seen again.
As for your comment about the XDA Noob Video, I didn't create that, but I personally feel that everyone who joins XDA should be forced to watch the entire thing and read the whole page of forum rules as well so that this place was able to keep to the goodness it has achieved and maybe lose a lot of the people who sign up nowadays simply to demand answers as they feel they are 'entitled' to an immediate response from people who help out on here for free in gaps from real life.
Righto, that's enough. Question answered, playtime over.
Closed.
