Not sure which rule I prefer to break - I tried to post this in the XDA forum as it isn't a phone topic but got told questions there break forum rules . :lol: and to post Q's here...
I wanted to look at the 1% Battery mod I have seen mentioned in a number of posts. If I type in '1% battery' in the Search for all threads at the top of page, & click for Titles Only, I get a listing of threads across the boards that have 1% battery in the title. As expected.
If I do exactly the same thing in the forum for S3 Themes and Apps, or even for Samsung S3 parent forum, the software removes the % sign and searches for '1 battery' which is less than useful given how many threads have '1' in the title. This happens even if I enclose it in " " which normally tells Search engines to look for exact text.
Strange... I'd have thought the same search engine would be used for all searches.

Hey guys, hope this is relevant to this section and someone can help me out as ive been searching and trying to fix this for hours.
Xperia x10
Rogers
Rooted
froyo youtube version 2.0.26
Ok so i uninstalled the stock youtube app and upgraded with the froyo youtube app (much nicer). the app works great except If i sign into my youtube account and close the program it automatically force closes as soon as i start it up the next time. To be able to use youtube at all again i have to uninstall and then re-install it.
HOWEVER... if before i close youtube i sign out of my account i can reopen it later with no problems.
Ive tried deleting the /data/data/ youtube files and clearing the youtube dalvik cache, however i may be doing it incorrectly.
Can anyone please help or make some recommendations.
Thanks
Instead on uninstalling it, you can just clear user data,
After that resign and it should work fine,
Btw, wrong section.

Post What Where:
General - general technical discussion items, news, anything else that does not fit into the other fora categories.
Q&A (Questions and Answers) - all questions, irrespective of type, get posted in here whether they be theme related, accessory related, technical, etc.
Accessories - any items to do with components and/or accessories relating to your device.
Rom Development - only meant for very advanced technical discussion directly related to ROM development activity and the delivery of actual ROMs and ROM components ONLY. Nothing else goes in here.
Themes & Apps - anything to do directly with the development of themes and/or applications. Nothing else goes in here.
MOD EDIT: BEFORE POSTING ANY THREAD IN THE DEVELOPMENT SECTION, PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING:
If you have developed a ROM, or are working with others to do so, the development forum is somewhere to discuss and share ideas, post useful feedback and logs or crash dumps, and to discuss a common goal developers are trying to achieve.
It is NOT the place to post your question because it gets higher traffic, or because more experienced users frequent it. Doing this just annoys those who are working on the device, and drives them away. Developers don't want to wade through 20 threads of "Help me urgently" to find their threads for porting and fixing camera issues etc. Similarly, if a thread is designated as discussion for developers say, porting a camera fix, please do not post in there asking "When will it be ready?", "Can I flash this yet?" etc. This is both completely disrespectful to those working on the project (you evidently haven't read the important posts in the thread), and also is making it harder for developers to find comments from other developers or testers when required.
Similarly, don't make loads of "Thanks for your work here" posts in an active development thread. It's just as annoying to developers as asking when something will be ready. If a ROM is complete, then go ahead and thank the developer if you wish, but don't go into threads for devs only, and interrupt it to post "thanks". It's basically spamming, and is treated as such.
If you are posting in development, you should have read every sticky and notice there, and should be actively developing or helping in the development of something. Developing isn't installing a ROM, or using a tweak, it's creating a ROM or other hack or tweak. If you haven't read for several days before starting out on XDA, you are likely about to ask something already solved. I registered on XDA when I first wanted to post, and that was to join in a discussion on something. Sure, join up and ask a question, but read the information available in General and Q&A first, as your question will have been asked before. Search is your friend here, become familiar with it.
Regarding when to post in development if you are not actually developing something, there is one occasion where it's acceptable. If you find a leak of a new ROM, which isn't already posted, and you verify it's legitimacy via either running it, or based on the source you obtained it from, then this is assisting in development, and should be posted in development. If you want to ask when a leak will be available use search first, then if not already in discussion, open a thread in general or Q&A.
If you have a problem flashing a ROM, this is NOT related to development. It's up to you to determine if it is specific to a particular ROM, and post useful information in that developer's existing thread for the ROM. If it happens on more than one ROM, and isn't a known issue (remember you should read several times more words than you post), then find out what you are doing wrong. Check guides written by others, try to repeat the problem and see if it happens every time. Something needs to be reproducible to be fixed effectively.
Once you have identified what you need help with go to the device Q&A forum (general if device lacks one), and make a clear, informative thread that explains the issue, and what you have tried doing to fix it. Did you re-download the ROM? Did you ask a friend to flash it for you, to reduce chance of user error? What steps (exactly) did you follow? What errors did you see (exact wording)? Did you double check all the steps? Did you do a wipe or hard reset?
If you make a clear, concise, yet detailed post, you will find help forthcoming, and should get the problem sorted very quickly. If someone suggests you try something, report back on what happened, did it work etc. Then, next time someone has this issue and searches, they will find this and have a verified and tested solution.
So remember... before you start a thread in development, ask yourself what you are developing. If you can't answer, then stop, step away from the post button, and think about where you are posting. Would it be better in General or Q&A, or is some more time with your best friend, search, required?

First of all read this before:
Thinking of posting a new thread???
Use the search button on the top bar between "New Posts" and "Quick Links"
Threads posted in the wrong fora will be moved initially; however, for repeat offenders, the moderating team will look to take action to rectify the situation in a manner it believes is appropriate
WITHOUT FURTHER NOTICE.
It is the responsibility of all users to keep the fora organised and clean. We need you to do your bit to keep things orderly.
To the dedicated members that care to keep this forum, subforums included, clean and organized and grouped.
Please start reporting threads to the mods to take action. Please use the REPORT button to do so.
Thank You and happy easy searching.

Then are you sure you have put your apn settings back to your phone? If you are using any unbranded firmware like the Global or Nordic you'll need to put your MMS, APN settings back to the phone manually...
Do a search within the Q&A forum or Google to find out what your career settings are...
PS> You can find the settings in the next path:
Configuracion>Redes Inalam. y redes>Redes Moviles.
Jim
Thanks for your reply!! I put the apn settings, and also my sim provider sent me a configuration sms. I check it out and everything is ok, also I have another x10 and everything works well with the same configuration. But this x10 doesn't try to connect if wifi is off, it always says that there is no internet connection available. I've tried many things but it doesn't work anyway...

try setting on my signature
Even with all apn settings ok, it won't connect... I really don't know what to do, this is the first problem I have with my x10. Do you think It would be ok to downgrade to 1.6??

that`s odd
try downgrade and see if it works. If it does upgrade again to 2.1 and see.
If still doesn`t work go to store and reclaim warranty
Is it just me or did the search function on the XDA site suddenly disappear? I wanted to find something in a very large thread this morning, and the search function is gone. I checked a few other threads; gone from those too.
So, if people are constantly complaining that other people aren't searching threads for answers before asking questions......but there is no search function....how is that going to work?

looks like they are working on it. all search is down for the time being.

I no longer see "Search This Forum" or "Search This Thread" buttons anymore. Without a working search function, the forums will get messy real quick.
EDIT: Didn't realize that it was affecting the entire forums... Found an existing thread in the xda-developers.com forum: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1732296. Sorry about that, but searching for something without a search feature is hard.

Can someone tell me the name of the WIFI chipset on Samsung a02s and does this chipset support monitor mode? or how can I find out if it supports monitor mode or not?

Welcome to XDA. Please be aware that we expect all members to follow the rules here on XDA.
Of particular note are these:
1. Search before posting.
Use one of our search functions before posting or creating a new thread. Whether you have a question or just something new to share, it's very likely that someone has already asked that question or shared that news.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
5. Create a thread topic or post a message only once, this includes external links & streaming media.
As a large forum, we don't need unnecessary clutter. You're free to edit your message as you like, so if you do not receive an answer, revisit your message and see if you can describe your problem better. Not everyone is online at the same time so it might take a while before you receive an answer.
You can bump your unanswered question once every 24 hours
Duplicate threads and posts will be removed
Always post in an existing thread if a topic already exists, before creating a new thread.
Use our search function to find the best forum for your device.

General Forums - For news and announcements relating to your device.
Q&A Help & Troubleshooting Forums - For all question / request threads and posts. If there is no Q&A Help & Troubleshooting forum, use the General Forum of the relevant device
Accessories Forum - For posts related to accessories relevant to the device
Development Forums (ones with the word development in the title) - For Developers to post release threads e.g. ROMs and Kernels including modifications to kernels, bootloaders, ROMs, etc., as well as R&D development discussion threads designed with an end goal
