There was really no need to open up a new thread for this question since it has been asked numerous times already. A little bit of search would lead you to a thread like this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2210279

Yeah moderator should put on an stickie..

What's the difference between the development forum and Q&A forum? Ask yourself that the next time you post.

I mean really? Wouldn't it be easier to just answer and let the thread die?
1.x is Froyo and 2.x is Gingerbread.
Remix means it's themed and Stripped means most of the Sense elements are removed.
Question answered, thread over.

I for one offered to help you, just not in this section. Telling people to F... off doesn't help either, in fact it's worst. While people are tired of getting flamed for posting in the wrong section people are also tired of sorting through Q&A threads to find threads that actually have to do with development, that's what we have sections for. I for one try to be civil with these sort of things, and while it's primarily the job of the moderators to move and or close threads as community members we have to police ourselves as well. The rudeness on both sides should stop, but....people should post in the correct sections too
Edit: I see the mods moved the thread, all is well that ends well.

Lil' Phone Bricker update.

I have 2.3 version of phone bricker and I want to update to the 2.5 version, can I save it to my SD card and update through CWM without doing a wipe or losing any data? I've had some issues on 2.3 I figured a new flash or a full wipe would get rid of.
This should be in the lil phone bricker thread.

The rules of the forum clearly state any questions about roms not involving development should be asked in the Q and A
Sent from my SGH-I777 using xda premium
Update, just clear cache/dalvik for good measure.
But depending on your issues a full wipe may be the best bet mostly if you flashed my Rom coming from another Rom with no wipe.
very much appriciated thank you, also the blue theme friggin awesome on the phone

That really only applies to the forums that have dedicated Q&A threads ie not this one. Forums like the Captivate and the inspire that is true for. Here you should always ask in the development thread before making a new thread

I have seen people with less than 10, I know its a rule but that the forum itself didn't let you.
Too lazy to search for them, not that I care cause I end up getting PMs instead.
I would rather they post so others can answer in case I am swamped.

LiLChris06, I see you're always responding to people's questions, that is very cool of you!! Your ROM looks great I will be flashing this (first time flasher) I pick you to Captain my phone after many days or reading page after page after page.... Sail long Sail strong my dude!
Point is, if every person with a post count of less than 10 made a question thread we'd have a ton of new threads. Maybe if a dev made a q&a thread for their rom it would make for easier answering of questions for those with a smaller post count . It does suck if u have a question and you can't post in dev section, but at the same time, it pushes those people to contribute in other ways in other places. As well as search, which a lot of new members don't wanna do. They would rather just ask again even if their question has already been answered.

You don't want to see more questions posted here like mine yet you keep reviving the topic? I'm not going to day you're just trying to stack your post count but....
My question was answered unless you're going to add new information or something useful stop filling the thread with your wasteful posts, thanks to whomever actually answered my question the update was butter and all my reboot issues are gone love this rom.

If u can't bother to learn the rules and treat this place like a help desk you're going to get flamed. But then u ***** and complain at the people who are telling u not to double post? Yer in the wrong. And we're gonna tell ya about it. If you don't like it, here's a suggestion-- don't double post! Its annoying and makes u look like a desperate fat chick at prom, who came with her friends because Jimmy Yachovich, the guy who was supposed to take u, got mysteriously and violently ill at the last minute.

Like I said I tried to remove post but since I don't actually post often I didn't know how to remove. I figured it belonged here instead of general q and a so that's why its here and I couldn't remove from general or I just don't know how.

It regards a theme/app but it is still a general q question. You cannot remove a thread (unless directed by a mod) once you have posted it. I would remove a couple of my own otherwise >.> . People do get way too obnoxious about their "rules" and honestly it doesn't prevent noobs from making the same mistakes over and over again anyways, so I think it's stupid of them. But they are trying to teach you that they hate you because of what you did, lol. It's not a big deal. People just have sticks up their butt because everyone assumes that everyone else hates the rules being broken all the time. Personally, it does keep clutter down if things aren't double posted. But this forum is so massive anyway, that regardless of double posts, there's a lot to go through..so to each their own. Not a big deal to me. I'm glad you found the answer yourself, and this double post actually REMINDED me, that I still needed to search for the stock weather widget, so thanks
And its mostly people that live on here that see the double post and the flame you for it but ehh what can you do... nothing lol...
Sent from my SGH-I777 using xda premium
Ok...since i was the first to point out the double post, and the thread seems to be getting out of hand, I just wanted to say that my intention was never to flame anyone. I simply pointed out that this was a double post, and I asked the op, in what I thought was a polite way, to please not double post in the future because I know people here don't like it and because it does clutter the boards. From there the thread just got out of hand. I don't know what I did to offend the op, but whatever it was I apologize.
Now a mod needs to close this thread, please.
Thread Closed because op figured his issue out. Op your language here on XDA is unacceptable. Read the rules. In addition, if anyone quotes the bad language I have to delete those posts too. Just report the post please. Everyone makes it worse by quoting the crap. Btw op, for future reference the edit button at the bottom of your post allows you to modify/delete what you wrote...

Your Favorite ROM?

Did a bit of a search, couldn't find anything like this for the Samsung Galaxy S3... question is simple - what is your favourite ROM for the Galaxy S3, and why?
Until some of the recent Jelly Bean ROMs from Samsung have leaked, my favourite has been Cyanogenmod 10 nightlies. As much as I love the Google Experience with AOSP, I can't deny that Samsung have done a freaking good job on their Jelly Bean ROMs. I'm currently using the latest Omega v22 ROM and it's amazing. Some of the features in it are really breathtaking, and they have really make a good effort to make it easy to use for the end user, which doesn't help me, but it's a step in the right direction.
So what is your favorite ROM right now and why?
This kind of thread is not allowed on xda.
Best ROM is an personal thing.
Reported, so no need for anyone else to post here.

Look through the forum and see all the locked best ROM threads.
They bring out fanboys and can end up as flame wars.
I don't know where it says it in the rules, I just know that they aren't allowed here.

I strongly disagree with number two. Any idiot can ask a question, only a smart person knows when it's necessary. Someone the other week had opened a thread because his clock had the wrong time. There are most certainly stupid questions.

Not.to be argumentative but.... My son has the LG thrill and his clock is randomly changing times on him resulting in him being late for work on one occasion. I haven't been able to figure it out yet (though i really haven't spent that much time trying yet) and don't want to resort to flashing a different Rom on it. so i could see asking a question like that in the near future if i don't figure it out. ( obviously in the thrill forum)

If asked and answered, you gain knowledge. Not everyone on this site is at the same level. Easy for you may be hard for some other user. I have had my own"duh"moments. If you haven't then more power to you. I look forward to your input here to help out so others can benifit from your knowledge. I will agree with your last sentence that there are stupid questions .. hence the thread name. But I will ask you to refrain from name calling. Thanks. I hope you stick around.

Ultra noob here. I got my phone on kijiji and it was already rooted and flashed to work with Wind Mobile(Canada). The phone is originally from Rogers.
Here is what I get from phone info
Model number - SGH-I717R
Android Version - 2.3.6
Baseband Version - T989DTLKJ3
Kernel Version - 2.6.35.11
Build number Gingerbread.248
I am not sure what exactly has been done. I would like to upgrade to ICS and still have it working with Wind Mobile. What do I do? Where do I begin?
Thanks in advance and sorry. I know its a stupid stupid question.
