There a lot of View 4G user like myself. Please Create a View 4G Section.
I agree
I agree with OP. Please at least put a separate section withing the Flyer section. You know like you did with the Nexus 4G? Thank you for all you do XDA...
Please, a subforum for View specific issues.
Please. I own a flyer and would get soooo pissed when a view owner would say they got netflix from the market on their "flyer"

I only agree with the OP if he means a separate subforum within the main "Flyer" forum. There is very little difference between the Flyer and View. A separate subforum for one or the other (Flyer/View) for model-specific issues would be okay. But otherwise, it fractures and dilutes the information way too much. This is how it was for the G2 and Desire Z (separate forums). If somebody found a solution for something on the G2 (that also worked on the Z), the information would take days (or maybe even weeks) to spread on the Z forum. And even then, often people would just lazily say "look in the G2 forum", and you'd have to go searching around for it. It was actually a big improvement IMO when they eventually merged the G2 and Z forums into one.
Another example, was when I was on the Tilt 2/Touch Pro 2. Things went just fine with the Tilt2 being on the same forum as the TP2. People were just good about stating which model they had. Better yet, just put your tablet model in your signature, and you never have to worry about mentioning it in your post. There are way more differences between the GSM TP2 and the CDMA one, then there are between the View and the Flyer. And all they did for the TP2 was add a subforum for CDMA-model specific issues.
For that matter, there are probably as many (if not more) differences between the WiFi-only Flyer, and the one with 3G/4G. Are we going to make a whole new forum for them, too? Don't think that's a good idea.
If people can't even get the tablet model (Flyer/View) right when they are posting, that's their own stupidity, and there is no cure for that.
^^I agree. A subforum would be more appropriate in this case.
I also agree that the View should have its own subforum in the Flyer section.

Agreed, however
I think a separate subforum would be nice, but I think us Flyer owners would rather not lose our View toting brothers to another area of the forums!
Now that we have S-Off and we can expect development to begin, I think any future confusion when ROM development starts hitting in here can be avoided by having a couple of sub-forums. VIEW General and VIEW Development at least. Just my $0.02
I am disagree because what is the big difference?
And I am sure that no newbie knows this difference and ask only View specific questions in this subforum and only there. We will have still View questions in the general part and non-View questions in the View subforum only because the owner has a view.
What we need is a simple approach to mention always the Flyer type - like this is organized in many other device forums here.
I think just posting something simple as [view] or [flyer] in the title of a rom or something else your posting that is device specific.
I would like a new View forum too, because it will get even more confusing if people don't completely describe their devices, and everybody says it will work, but on what device? I hope XDA will make a new forum.

I know I already posted on this subject, but I totally agree that it would be great to see a View General sub forum in the Flyer General section and a View Development sub forum of the Flyer Development section.
As someone relatively new to concepts like S-off and rooting, it would be nice to have a place to post quedtions and get device specific answers.

Its not rocket science, the dev should just say in the ROM description whether its for the View, Flyer, or both. If the OP doesn't say, then you ask, and either the the dev, or somebody else answers. This is how it works for every other device that I've owned.
From past experience, ROMs tend to work on all versions of a device, more so than not. If ROM Development subforum gets split up for the 2 variants, will the ROM dev be expected to post to both, if it works on both? If they don't, people will be stuck browsing both Development subforums, looking for ROMs which are compatible for their version.
Also remember the non-US 3G enabled tablet is called the flyer. I am currently running a rom for the view on my flyer, and other then the annoyance of the "missing" sim card it works fine.
IMO Simply stating View/3G or WiFi Only in the title of the rom should be more than enough. So far every fix for the flyer also works for the view. Separation is un-needed and potentially disruptive. Standardize the ROM labeling and we are golden.
Add another view owner to the /agree list for a subsection for us.
i think the forum should stay the way it is, users should be posting with the right device though it wouldnt hurt XDA devs to put HTC Flyer aka HTC Express (Sprint Evo 4g View) aka Flyer 3g aka Flyer Wifi
if people making threads cant post the correct device they shouldnt be making threads or trying to mod their devices
It was brought to my attention per a thread discouraging people from posting theories, thoughts, and rumors about ICS for our beloved and hated EVO 3D, that NOBODY knows when ICS will be released. To that I say RUBBISH!
Sandwich the EVO 3D with an HTC ONE X and another EVO 3D and you have yourself a pretty accurate looking Ice Cream Sandwich if I may say so myself.
Happy Easter everyone.
There is massive effort to try and get people to search the forums before posting. There are so many duplicate posts about ICS that it is SIMPLY something they could have realised wasn't worth posting as it's been written about or superseded many times previously. This isn't about ICS, this is about lack of thought/effort before posting.
Why? Because it's like anything that get's hyped, people forget themselves. Discussion is to be encouraged, as is using the search button.
EDIT: to be clear, I WANT info and discussion on ICS.. but I wish it was more targeted than scatter gun.
Happy Easter
I agree that these ics threads are more annoying than anything. There's so much bs and banter about nothing or assumptions with nothing to back it up that I just wanna stop looking all together. Stop these pointless threads until there's something concrete. Thanks

another dev was banned recently
if this continues this phone is in trouble, rom wise
the htc one is looking like a fresh start for me and alot of people
what is wrong with xda? why do poeple love drama so much?
No need for this thread. If a dev was banned it was for very good reasons. Do not start another thread like this.
Edit: he was banned due to his horrible past and recent dealings with moderators. (Not me)
Its a case of your past catches up to you as does having a very bad attitude towards others. Let it be a lesson to others.

Hello all, sorry if this is a redundant thread, however I have been searching and haven't found anything in regards to unlocking the bootloader after big red's update. If there's a thread addressing that, I'm sorry, I just haven't come across it. It's been a few months since the update, and ( not to pressure anyone here, but I've usually seen work arounds for things like that by now lol ) ) don't get me wrong, mad props to you guys who figure this stuff out and making like easier for noobs like me :good:

Send your phone off to have it it unlocked and s off with JTAG process.
For all those people who complain about the 10 post rule, this thread is the reason it's there.
Nothing personal against the OP, he's not a 1 post member, this was just a good example, imagine how Many of these there would be if the first post could be made in here.

and I thought it was time to collect the bounty after reading the title
Thread moved to Q&A and subsequently closed, as question has been answered.
Please do not start a thread in dev forum unless you are actually releasing something.

Closing thread, due to the TOT that was released being either one, corrupted, or 2, the better possibility, a fake.
