I wanted to thank you guys, and everyone else that hangs around the Eris section for all the help. If it weren't for all the work that went into this phone I'm fairly certain I would have thrown mine out a window a long time ago. Though I moved up to the GNexus, I'll still be hanging around here for a while to see whats going on and maybe help test a few things.
hello,
Im a new geek from Indonesia
this is my first post, and Eris is my first android too..
hope will learn something here.

hey everyone.. just signed up and wanted to say hi.
i just ordered my new MDA, and should be here in a few days! ive had the SK3 for a month after upgrading from the SK2, and its just not what it used to be. Im looking for something with way more functionality other than being cool. Not to mention a more mature phone.
anyway, i just wanted to see if you guys could help me. seeing as how i dont have the phone yet, i wanted to read as much as i can about hacking it up. im aware that the stock phone (USA Tmobile MDA) rom isnt very well, so i need some pointers on where to start...
ive tried searching already, but theres only so many "newbie" threads i can sift through... basically can someone point me into the right direction of everything i need to get started? it would be most appreciated! i guess which rom, how to update, which apps, where to go... lol, basically everything!
ill obvisouly be reading until the day the phone comes (and charged for 12 hours) so i should be more knowledgeable by the time the phone arrives.. but i really appreiciate any help!
thanks!
Maybe you just should to post which MDA you have orderd. Since the good old MDA I / Wallaby isn´t sold anymore, that´s the wrong part of the forum here....
You should take a look at the right part of the forum.

LOL..

Hey guys! I don't want anyone to see this as fishing for compliments or thanks, so let's kill that idea first.
I was recently nominated and accepted as a Recognized Contributor here on xda, so I just wanted to kinda give you guys a formal and friendly introduction.

I've been an Android geek for nearly two years now, and have absorbed a lot of information in that time. While I may not be able to build my own rom or submit fixes on github, I do retain information very well and try to help out everywhere I can. I just want everyone to know that if you guys ever need help with something or just need a little guidance, feel free to ask me and I'll do the best I can to respond in a timely manner. I know the big world of root and custom roms can be a bit daunting at first, but that's why we help our newer members learn rather than gripe at them.
You guys can either post questions here or PM me, but I do ask that you try and figure it out on your own first. You'll learn a lot more that way. I promise, that's how I learned everything I know.
Devs, this goes for you too. If you need a last minute tester for something, I'm almost always available to help. I'm willing to switch roms on a dime and flash/push files to the phone. I'll be putting my GTalk ID on my profile soon, so you guys can reach me if need be.
I hope I can be as useful as possible to you guys! Happy rooting to you!

thanks brO!! its nice to see there still are some decent people who are here to help.. i respect that..
same here...good to see some more help for sure. But anyways ive just got one question here for ya and you may or may not be able to help me. ive tried to ask this in the forums and haven't got an answer so here it goes.
My phone gets warm up around the camera area almost immediately it seams like. it starts when i start using data such as scrolling around Facebook or downloading an app, etc...and was just wondering if that's normal or should i get a replacement? $590 bucks is a lot for a phone and i just want it right ya know.
Now the only reason i ask this is cuz my gnex does the same thing but it gets really hot after about 15 to 20 mins of using data.
thanks a lot for all your hard work and support for dummies like me that dont know anything lol...
well seeing I cannot post in the forum because I read alot and do not type except to help im pm's I am asking here anyone know what would be needed to get these to work both get black screen but audio is fine.
Known issues, wait for the dev working on the rom to fix it.
thanks
Yeah i was just looking for some info on the sticking point
learning java but on my own
Just trying to learn some things I am learning slowly maybe one day i'll have something posted on here.

Dude, hang in there. I don't know hardly anything at all. I've found by using the search that it almost always has been asked. I will say that the X2 forum rules! If you really need a hand or a tip, people are all over it trying to help out. There's other ares of XDA that is nowhere near as friendly.
Happy Holidays to all first of all!!
Second of all, i unrooted my phone months ago when Sprint started rolling out the 4.3 update so that i may receive it. I admit i am out of the loop a lil bit because it seems as though a lot has changed. All i would like to know is can i still use one of qbkings older methods to root or is there a better way so that i may perhaps keep my modem? I am ready to get back in the game because honestly, my phone is boring as hell!! Hahah....thanks in advance for your time, effort, patience, and answer!!
Again, Happy Holidays and Happy Rooting!!
This is I9300 forum not your phone see sticky top of the page .
Hi all, so it seems our device isnt getting much support or anything so I've decided to take the plunge try to learn something about porting and see if i can port something to our device... for me its not such a risk as the phone was basically a gift so if it gets bricked ill be sad but not end of the world sad...
so first off i have a few questions
1 the code name all the phones seem to have dev codenames... and of course i notices in the jmz kernal we are downloading the a3ul kernal. so is this the actual name for our phone.. i ask because there are some stock roms and i thought i could maybe make these the base to start from...
2 can you give me some ideas of comparable phones i checked the htc mini one and two while close they both have different cams so i would like suggestions as to other devices so i can try downloading roms and taking them apart to see what i can find out...
3 to any devs, could you recommend some good sites to give me basics in either A)-porting a rom for us, B)-compiling a rom from some source or lastly and really hope leastly the idea of developing something myself somehow...
thanks
Im no developer, but I have recently been looking into this myself and the XDA University seems to hold some fairly thorough guides, I have just not had the time to start anything yet

preaching to the choir bud... i got 2 kids i teach full time and one more baby on the way time is one thing in limited supply.. but i really love this little device so it would be a shame if it went un-developed...
