Request for mods - add links before closing threads - Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE

Mods, when you close a thread for duplicating information/questions/topics, can you link to the thread that has the original information/answers? It becomes difficult when you are searching the forums for an answer, and you find threads asking the question you need answered, but all they have are a post from a moderator saying "Already been asked. Locked."

They would prob expect you to do a little of the work to find the topic or information YOU are looking for ..they r not secretaries

That was the point. When you try to do a search you get a lot of results with questions but no answers. This makes it difficult to do your own "work".

That's why its called "work".. If it was easy then you'd already know how to do it... Part of the experience is finding wrong threads that may not pertain to what you think they should, but you learn (how to search on your own and not have everybody cater to you) regardless.

You must be joking...
Clutter does not make anything better. Not the board and not the users' experience.

I've never had an issue..usually I can even google and find an xda thread about what I'm looking for..I guess everyone's expectations are different..regardless its not the mods job to do it for you

I can generally find my answers too. But once in a while there will be a hot issue that lots of people ask about. Their questions usually contain all the key words, so search results come back filled with clutter.
A moderators first job is to protect the board and the integrity of the data. It is also a mod's job to help make sure the board provides a good user experience. Somtimes that means cleaning up threads. This might include merging them, moving them or deleting them. If a mod knows infor exists elsewhere then he already knows where it is. To expect him to put that link into a thread he locks is _certainly not_ too much to ask.
Hint: I run a forum too, and have several moderators.

What if the mods merged the threads and shot the op a PM letting him know with the link to the thread. I've had a mod do that for me once here in another section. It was very helpful. Just a thought.

we dont typically do this b/c at times it makes a mess when merged, is a complete hassle to do, and also more importantly wouldn't teach people to take a few extra min to look around and find what they are looking for on their own and learn...

and the reason you dont see a link a lot of the times when threads are closed b/c other threads are already present......its b/c 9/10 times the thread that they should of posted in to begin with was on the first page of the very same section they post in....
Also we dont always have the time to pull up and copy the link to the thread for the user...
Closing this one, btw...if you have any questions feel free to PM ANY of us about your concerns/comments....were a open gang here

Why would you create a new thread in the DEVELOPMENT section? Mods please move to GENERAL or delete all together.

Its more fun to pick on people, especially newcomers than to actually help them, or at least it seems that way.
Submitting items in appropriate sections are a damned good thing.....but do people actually give a ratsass about catching "hell" or a threat of getting "flamed" on a freakin' forum?!

Agreed, takes 10 posts to post in dev section. His 11th post is this crap!
I've been a member here for a long time, but do not speak much as most questions I would have about any of my devices have clearly been discussed.
I also understand where new members would not know much about whats going on at times, but its nothing more than a simple search. I (and all other members new/old) have to search like everyone else. Its really not hard.
Its also believed with the great devs that are doing what they can (and I THANK YOU for that) to get root available for our device. I'm SURE they will have something up (as in a new thread) that they have achieved what we have been waiting for. Its going to happen. Be appreciative that we even have devs that are making the time to find out all that they can. Without them, we'd be in a world of hurt.
Just my .18 cents.
You 'section police' people are fkn pathetic.
Seriously hate coming to this forum now.
"I also understand where new members would not know much about whats going on at times, but its nothing more than a simple search. I (and all other members new/old) have to search like everyone else. Its really not hard."
Of course. No one argues with that.
Its how they're told that.
Members with 5000 posts don't have liscence to be a**holes. They're no more 'valuable' than someone with 1 in terms of basic civility.
And after 1301 posts...this is your offering?! Lol?
I'll take his 11th!

Think of "development" like a business...professionalism is important in business, no? There is a job that is being done here.
If you are looking for the tavern take it to General, if you are looking for the visitors assistance center take it to Q&A. This is all spelled out in the rules. If you have no "developing" to contribute to the "development" please take it elsewhere.
Posting non-development related posts is like showing up drunk to work, and your post is like an even drunker guy proclaiming how BS the professionalism is at said business.
I'll shut up now, as this is unrelated to development.

Hey Sad Panda and flamers

Just wanted to say thank you for the support in my threads. It seems my thread stalker has serious issues. Unfortunately my thread was deleted before I got to read what you said, but I appreciate the backup. I hate to say it but the childish ones have turned this forum into flame heaven. A few developers have already left as well as several members. I swear the average owner of this phone must be 12 years old or just have no friends.
This being the general section people can pretty much post what they want as there are posts about tablets and other things that have nothing to do with the 3d. That is the point of having a general section.
Anyway, I hate the fact my thread was closed as I wanted you guys to see the new note. It is truly an awesome device and although not everyone is interested in it, there were several people who were and sent me pm's.
Although I spend most of my time in the Note forums now I do check in here to see what is happening as I have gotten to know several of you guys and many of you have helped me out over the months.
I wish everyone could get along and the internet wrestling would stop. There are friends to be made here and people out to help.

Not thread stalking you, just trying to keep the EVO 3D section to relevant posts that help the community. Coming in and starting a thread pretty much bragging that you got a new phone does nothing for the community.

And for the smart ones who talk about clogging up the forum I guess the threads about what tablets to get, what ROM is the best or the ones about other phones comparing to the 3d are ok, right? You morons make no sense nor do your arguments. like I told panda, the average age of owners of the 3d is like 12 especially since your points have no logic nor do they make sense.

Or, look at my posts and see that helpful, productive members of the community also do not condone these types of threads. There is a standard that should be upheld here by all of XDA
members.
General section is for general threads ABOUT the evo 3D. That is why it is the Evo 3D general section.
This position that you have that "everyone should like what I have to say", or "what I say is better then <insert anything>" is childish.
You are why this place is going downhill, not because of the people who have gown impatient with your frivolous threads, posts, etc...

Lmao, ask around, I bet people loved that thread. It was quite great. Unfortunately, I didn't take the time to see if there was already a similar thread, hence it was closed.
So, good job, you cite a thread that was to help the members of the community....
Also, that just goes to show, that in fact, you Sir, are the 12 year old girl. Maybe 13, but meh, the exactness is moot.
What satisfaction do you get from the constant barrage of XDA? Does it make you feel special to 'win' arguments,
over the internet, with people you have never met, and likely never will?
Did you not get enough love as a child? Are you picking obnoxious fights with strangers to somehow fill that gap?
Or possibly, did you get too much love? Did someone make you feel too special, to the point where you thought you mattered?
Either way, it is old, it is annoying, and everyone would appreciate if you handed daddy back his computer
Oh for goodness sake. Can we stop with the childish petty arguing.
Is it really a surprise to you that these threads keep getting closed?
Take it to PM and sort out the issue. Don't start yet another crappy thread.

I'm not familiar with the development aspect of modems but just an observation--If the modem is developed for another device then, to me, common sense says it wasnt designed to be used on our phones which is why some things work and others dont. Maybe the signal is different in the US versus International, which is why the voice doesnt work. Who knows...but the bottom line is that we'll need to use the i777 modems.
out of curiosity, why would you want to use the int'l modems, anyway? What benefit do they give you?

I'd disagree. It encourages other people to report posts more and refrain from posting the same "why'd you post here" comments over and over.
If everyone decides to comment on it instead of reporting, it just takes that much longer for it to appear in the correct subforum. And of course, the inevitable flaming continues and the thread ultimately ends up closed.
How is encouraging forum rules unproductive?
It reinforces the point

just a guess but if a simple tweak would make it work, it would have been done long ago. So the fact that it still doesnt work, makes me believe that its not possible without major alterations to the int'l modems.

I think the the reason people might be giving you a hard time is because you started a thread and clearly put yourself self above the Golden Rule of using the search button. It is pretty clear what we have in the development forum dude. So whether you have you reasons or not for using whoever's rom here. It doesn't matter. You didn't search. You wanted others to do the foot work for you and spoon feed you. You are now just another statistic that is clogging up xda with useless threads. Thanks!

Use the search button? you got to be kidding me. Some people may want to browse the latest technical issues that came up, and need to read thru pages and pages of total off-topic blabber.
I have a news flash for you. People will continue to post questions and there is nothing you can do to stop it.
Maybe a private forum is a good solution for you if you get annoyed by people asking questions.

Well basically what you are doing here defeats your whole purpose of this useless thread. You've started a thread that adds no value to this community and proves your disregard for the forum by using the search button. So to be fair. This seems to me that it could be considered to be about as "off topic" as my thread can get. Good job!

im not annoyed at all dude. im just stating a fact. the fact is, that you couldn't even figure out how to use the search button. thats ridiculous. the search button filters out what you're calling "off-topic blabber." so you should really begin to school yourself on how to use it. it would be awesome.
i don't need a private forum. but thanks for the suggestion. I actually add value to this community and keep the development moving. what do you do? I'm thinking it might be a good idea to take your own suggestion and start a private forum for yourself. that way your non-development and opinionated threads can be elsewhere from the actual development and XDA can continue to be what its about. DEVELOPMENT.
Basically what task is saying is you lose

Ok, so I take the blame for adding 2 pages of useless crap. Guilty as charged.
Your thread is way ahead of me...if you enjoy it, and nobody cares, all is good.

what im telling you is. and i am sincerely attempting to help you. is if you dont like the off topic stuff in my thread and thats the only reason keeping you from it. you can filter the thread with the search function. i fix a lot of things and there is a ton of actual development in there if you choose to search for it. i have to use the search button in my own thread at times. its just how popular threads go sometimes.

Man, if that's the reason you don't want to try Task's AOKP, you should try to come up with some other reasons. His ROM is awesome. He updates at a maddening pace and fixes a lot of things. He is an awesome developer. Also, like he's been telling you, the search button makes it easy to find something you may want to find, you don't have to read through all of it if you don't want to. Sincerely speaking, you should at least give the ROM a try, the download link is in the first page, so there is no off-topic posts to read through to try it. I promise you you will not be disappointed.

Nobody is helping...

You will probably get some flames for posting this in the development forum.
This post belongs in the Q&A forum and you will find what you are looking for in the General forum. Look for mpgrimm2's thread about bootloader differences and my post in that thread with many of the bootloaders, including the one you requested.
And please read the forum guidelines and post in the correct one next time.

How bout posting a direct link then telling them for next time. Prevent multiple topics spread throughout different forums and save yourself chasing the guy around referencing them.

I guess a few posts explaining this issue weren't enough, so I am very glad you had time from your busy schedule to make such a useful contribution. Thank you. Seriously, you are a credit to the community.
Anyway, here is the thread that was mentioned earlier that has the HBOOT files:

Reported thread. There is absolutely no development going on in this thread.

People that make posts like this need to figure out how to find things that have already been covered, so there was a reason I didn't include a direct link to what he wanted.
You are certainly welcome to handle it as you see fit.

I got your point, and it's that same spiteful attitude that leads to people not caring what the rules are because they don't intend to became active contributors. Think about it...

Spiteful?
If I were spiteful I would have blasted him for posting in the wrong forum and not even tried to help him find what he was looking for.
Maybe you can make up for all us spiteful people? I'm done with this thread.

Spiteful in that you avoided posting the direct link intentionally because the topic is in the wrong forum. http://m.dictionary.com/example/spiteful?linkId=7596ya

I agree, it just seems like more time gets wasted discussing post location and relevance than anything else here. Perfect example is in the top half of this post. Too bad stuff like that is even an issues really...

Ramjet, your answer was great. You took the time to guide this guy in the right direction and even told him the thread starters name to help more, also adding that download links were there and notified him that this is the wrong place for a question. If someone couldn't find the thread with the info you provided, they don't need to be modding their phone anyway. I see you around here helping anyone that needs it. Good job.
Twisted, what's the sense in getting on Ramjet? He's not a troll by any means and was only trying to help. He probably didn't post a link because of the good directions he gave in finding it. The guy probably found the thread before you ever posted your link. Troll me if you want but that's just my 2 cents.
Why help, when in a bleak of an eye you will start another thread, I count 5 so far

Why help? This is a community that's built on helping and learning (at least its supposed to be). I spent months asking stupid questions and then I got to the point where I could start helping. We need to let the mods sort out where the posts belong.
If I were on vacation and went to a gas station to buy beer and I didn't see any on the shelves, I might ask the clerk if this is a dry county. They would say yes or they'd say no we're out. I wouldn't expect the clerk to say "go do some f..king research".
