You linked to a closed thread.

They closed it for the same reason they will close this one; no placeholder threads.

If you have the device in hand and want to post your impressions, that's fine. Placeholders like this end up 10 pages of chatter that nobody wants to sift through

Go check it out!
Close Please
Looks at the permission set for this app.
Why does the app need to pull my system log files?

Depends on the app. If you're against privacy breach and data collection, don't touch any of the new media.
However there are far more serious permissions I'd worry about first.
Log reading is mostly used for fc and crashing apps. Can be turned off often.

Meaning it reads the log data to report to the creator if it is encountering errors such as a FC due to whatever the reason maybe..

We already have a thread for the Amazon FAotD. Didnt you see it before you posted? Anyways it is updated everyday with the new free app to reduce clutter aka your thread.
I get the point you are making but the "Amazon FAotD" thread is a newly created thread (the 29th of sep. I believe)... I have searched in the past (just like I always do before I make a post) and I never saw anything like this.. I would never have thought to search FAotD... That is not something that would come to just anyone's mind.. oh and searching amazon free apps will not turn up any solid results on this particular thread you are referring too...
Again, like in the message I sent you Wired, sorry for the extra thread! but you do not have to be sarcastic about it when "you" made a thread about cut the rope (sep. 28th, 9:42am) the same day after another user created a thread about cut the rope (sep. 28th, 8:58am)? yes, I searched it....

and just because it is updated everyday (which I doubt it is after reviewing the thread) it will not show up as a "new" thread unless someone makes a post in it.. just saying
The thread is updated every day I have seen. I did a search of this forum for Cut the Rope and I did not start a thread on this forum. I did not post a duplicate here. I do agree the Amazon FAotD thread on this forum should be stuck.

i personally update the thread at 3AM most days (eastern time, midnight on Amazon's clock)
i've missed out on doing it for ONE DAY. i always make a post after updating it. the ONE DAY i missed out on updating it was because i worked a 12 hour shift, got off work and got five hours of sleep before going back into work (for another 8 hour shift) to open the next morning.
just so ya know.

Since this thread has already gone down hill and will be hopefully closed (I, contacted the mod about closing/deleting it) might as well entertain the thoughts...
There was no need to explain yourself, yes I posted "I doubt it is" comment but since you do update it "regularly" then that's good! No argument here..
My point was that this kid rather be sarcastic and a smart ars then helpful and informative in a respectful manner (or just report it to the moderator, no need to comment on the thread and bump it up, DOH!). It's like I posted this in the Dev section or something. Your thread is not easy to find (yes I searched to see if someone posted IM+ Pro... NOTHING came up) as most including myself have probably searched "Amazon free apps" not amazon FAotD which would cause other forums to pop up and not yours where a free app is posted "regularly"..
Even though Wired posted in a different section, the posting rules clearly state the following (and no it doesn't say except if you go to a different section is it OK);

Well I already bookmarked your thread earlier and I appreciate it. Your first post did sound like you were defensive because of my comment. Sorry about that. All I said to you was that you didn't have to explain yourself and that it's good that you update it regularly. That's all that was for you (I re-read what I said and it does not sound like I was being defensive towards you). The rest was between me and Wired.

he probably just misread your Burn the Rope thread?
Agreed. Just like he couldnt see the other IM+ thread before he posted his, not that he spent time looking. So now hes probably gonna type three paragraphs on why he thought the words "burn" and "cut" could mean the same thing. Time for glasses.

Best Buy Pre-Orders 11/30-12/4 ship confirmation?

Other threads are too cluttered. We know a lot of shipments yesterday were from 11/22-11/29 mostly if not all in grey. Please only post in this thread if you've gotten shipping confirmation between 11/29-12/04 and so on... Thanks.
Doesn't another thread about a topic that's already open clutter the forum in general? This should be discussed in the other Bestbuy pre-order thread, even if it's cluttered and off topic.
I say we close them all and start from scratch. And I am only half joking JD

shamelessly subtly bumps old thread

How are you supposed to get help

I was just scolded by Red5 for posting a new thread. I can't post in the Development forum, as I don't have enough posts yet. I DID search for the answer, and when I couldn't find I did as the message below told me to do. Post the question in the Q&A forum.
I'm not a moron, or a troll, I'm an experienced IT professional with a simple question. New members are going to have more questions than answers when getting started in this forum. Rules that block people from putting comments where they belong, then scolding people for putting them where they're told to (see below) just doesn't make much sense.
Please Read: New members (those with fewer than 10 posts) are not permitted to post to development-related forums. The developer forums are intended for experienced users and developers to discuss ways to improve technical aspects related to ROMs and Software. While you may be an expert, we ask ALL users to avoid posting questions about using or installing ROMs and software in the Development Forums. To encourage this new Users can read but not post in these forums.
To ask Questions about developing your device, installing ROMs, software and themes you must go to the Q&A or General Forum.
What question do you have. Also if you read, the development forum is only for development, not asking questions.
You have no idea how many new members go in and ask questions that have been asked millions of times before or in the sticky that has BIG BOLD LETTERS ON THE TOP SAYING READ ME. And also 90% sure this thread will be locked anyways since it has nothing to do with the phones.
Oh to answer your question.
Since its an App, you're not going to find help on the black text because thats just the way the app is coded. Go complain to the developer of the app and not the ROM.
And by recovery console do you mean cwm? If so, have fun.

Sorry, that's a rough intro. I hope you won't be turned off by XDA as a whole. I try to keep things positive and look forward to seeing you around these boards.
EDIT, as to your questions, briefly in case this thread gets closed:
1) No easy way to change font/color behavior in a single app. As a workaround, you can hold finger over a list entry/item and read the text sometimes while it is highlighted. Some apps have theme settings for dark/light themes for exactly this situation.
2) I know modifying recovery is possible (Siyah kernel for instance) but have never seen one with larger fonts. At any rate, it's not a setting that can be changed on the fly.
I think they mean for questions like "how do i flash a rom" , "how do i return to stock" , general non rom specific questions. Any specific rom questions need to go in that dev's thread. As far as needing ten posts, find some threads that interest you in the general or q & a and comment on them.

I'm pretty sure none of us are... But this is the rule for XDA that was set forth... 10 post is not a lot, especially comparing to some of the other sites that I seen out there. As of now you have 7 posts. Only 3 more posts and you should be good to go.
Keep it in mind the moderators/administrators here work hard to keep this forums nice and clean. So, new users can find things easier.
As some of the earlier posts and responses, they should already tell you what you can and cannot do.
As penguinlogik said, I would stay away from CWM. Or you will definately have a field day with it, that is from my experience.
Wait was that in the Q&A section that it was asked?
Anyways to answer your question;
The app was made for an unthemed version of the rom. When we theme stuff in the framework often times it directly effects some apps. Apps that are using framework colors anyways.
The only way to fix the app is to mod the app yourself or use a unthemed rom.
Theming is a tough job as it cant usually be done without effecting something else (app) unfortunately.
Hope that helps...
Thank you shoman, that was the first useful reply to my original question.

I think you need to understand where XDA came from. It was never meant as a place for the masses to come and gather. It was meant for developers to come and share knowledge to make their phones better. What you see now is what happens when you do it EXTREMELY WELL. It is EXPECTED OF YOU to read, read, and read some more before you ask questions. Yes that may take minutes, hours or even days, but that's what you have to do.

That dude was not nice... I had the same problem when started into xda, search results had no answer for my specific dilemma, and I had to make 10 posts before being able to get a real answer for my initial question. But it helped me out, cause now I use search all the time when I got questions and haven't had anyone scold me over my posts, but all that aside this is a very useful forum. Enjoy XDA!

What did I tell you? I said that you didnt need to start a thread to ask your question. There were plenty of threads already started that you could have popped in and asked your question. Once again, no reading was done. Had you read my post (let me quote that for you here):
Then I suggest you read the sticky thread and look at the FAQ and look in the Iscrewed thread for your answers. Just because you cant post to ask your probably already answered question, dosent mean you get to start a new thread about it.

I said NOT TO START A NEW THREAD ABOUT IT. Thats why it was closed. If you consider that scolding, then you're in a rude awakening from other members here at XDA.
The reason we put up the 10 post minimum was because 99.9% of all questions are either answered in the sticky threads, guides, walkthroughs, FAQ or threads already started... you just have to look. As previously stated by another member, by learning to search when you first register, it set a precident for the remainder of your stay on how to act and what to do on this forum.
This is a Development site for Developers... its not a phone version of WalMart where people pop in to start a thread or just order what they want. If you want answers, just like the internet itself, you're going to have to search... and this same answer can be found in the sticky at the top of this forum.

Guys I just received an indian invite for OPT, and i'm not sure of buying this phone because of heating problem with phone, so if any one seriously interested in buying.
Pls Pm me, i'll reply till evening, because i'm going out.
I have an invite for ONEPLUS 2 , if anyone interested. please contact.
With three active invite threads open and five new ones closed by the mods since yesterday, I don't see why it was necessary to start yet another thread. The forum doesn't need more unnecessary clutter.
