Actually, the best option to gain notoriety (if your into that sort of thing) would be to host the forum on your site... PDAKitchen.net or ScroslerPDA.net or some YAF like that

L8er

YAF = Yet Another Forum... people dont like to sign up to forums to gain access.... So I asked, if I make this member only to get to the boards.... will people do it or just say screw it and come righ tback here after download?

I am posting large so everyone will chime in.....

Thats what I am saying man... That pic is going to be my new site... It will have its own boards for the differnt ROM's and builds ;c) Plus some maybe adult sections where we can loosen up the language, an off topic section where you can post and rant and ***** and complain and cry and yell and scream and do wahtever you want in........ WITHOUT the astericks hiding your real thoughts....

Also, I will be looking for 3 or 4 moderators..... If you are interested in moderating on a board of MINE then let me know via PM.

Nah, thats more time to be here....

This work **** gets in the way...... I would be on here helping out 24/7 if I could. Building ROM's all day and supporting them at night ;c)

But anyways... Back to work now... So much to do before vacation starts.....

Well my thougts are this....you'd still need both, and to support both....because many people, especially newcomers to the ROM, will not wan to sign up for YAF...and I don't blame them.

But I think your own forum would ultimately be easier on you and everyon else.

I'd say AT LEAST half the posts here are from people who are regulars who would sign up and take the discussion to your new boards. This would clean this thread up immensely and make it easier to follow.

Then you could keep better track on this thread, and be able to keep track of things in your new forum in a much more organized fashion. Would be easier for me and others for sure, and I would imagine for you too.

For info and updates, I would suggest just posting basic updates in the first post, and linking to your site for detailed info..that way you dont have to keep 2 copies of a library of info up to date.

The biggest downside I see is that I think some of the more regular posters here would not be in this thread as much, which means helping the newbies less. And the annoyances of crosslinking to YAF.

Has anyone been able to successfully cook Sashimi Compliance into this?

I have been trying a whole bunch but can't get it to work.

Excellent break down! I see it the same way you do.

This is a good spot to intro new stuff and make people aware. The meat of the conversation for more exp people should be at my site. Newbs can stay here ;c) Hehehee.. Just kidding, newbs are more than welcome to come along! we will all still hve to patrol this site for newbs and there questions and assumptions.... Not going to leave them abandon if they donty want to join scottcrosler.com (also thinking of a new site name possilby)

We can all post in both boards. IM not suggesting we stop posting here by any means... Just want to have some fun and make some things for the "regulars" more beneficial like being able to say and do anything.

The thread will nto get hiujacked any more. Just start a new one. We can have unlimited threads and unlimited tiotles and just have a grand ole time... Maybe I am delusional... I dont know... I just think it will be some fun!~

But yes, the main thing will be organization... I can post a new ROM about every 4 hours but there is no way in hell I can support that in one single thread. hehehehehe

Right now anyways...

Wouldl you guys be interested in signing up to YAF? Lets say this forum was hosted entirely by me and on any subjects you want about the ROM. Maybe a entire board for each build?

Maybe some off topic stuff.... Maybe look like this?

I think that is AWESOME!

By the way I am loving R4R better than B2B. Just better looking to me.

Can't wait for the improvements on the 6.5 Beta though as that looks sooooo pretty. LOL

If this works, post back, and I'll re=post a tweaks file that does work

Attached you will find the 2 "tweaks" files that I found to replace the "tweaks.xml" file in the TouchPro 3D Config file Vers .67....
Installation Instruction:
1) rename the current "tweaks.xml" file to "tweaks.old" (or delete it)
2) Change the file extension of the attached files to xxxxxxx.xml
3) Insert them in the same folder where the original file was located.
4) Save the files in some other location, because if you reflash/do a hard reset, etc., you will lose your customized files. Reinstallation of the program automatically inserts the original "tweaks.xml" file.
The tweaks that are shown, have not been tested for applicabiliby to the Verizon TP. The only thing I did was to remove a reference to the "GSM SIM Module" that was causing the program to crash on CDMA phones.

For more detailed info on the tool, please go to:

Enjoy, and if these help you, please hit the "THANKS" button.
