Ally help irc channel

dots said:
****To clairfy what IRC is and the purpose. IRC is called Internet Relay Chat. Basically a chatroom. I have set this up to help people that have a problem or need help with something. We usually have more than one person try to assist so its group help. :) Which also means you would get answers faster. But it's more than just a support chat. It's there for fellow ally or any android based phone owner to come chat and have some fun. :)

I've already got one setup on freenode. Channel: #ally

webchat for those that do not have IRC clients.

Ally IRC Webchat client

Here's another webclient

wsIrc Ally IRC

Just change the Username to whatever you want and clock login.

Update**

For those of you who have the new Phandroid app. You can connect to the ally irc channel from it. Once your sucessfully connect to the network click menu and press "Join Channel" then add #ally. and click OK. Here's a screenshot.

Hey, Dots, did you notice the battery status icon in the image you posted? Talk about "subliminal messages". :p

I see the "average age" of some of the members on the chat hasn't changed much since my first encounter with IRC nearly 30 years ago, which was why I never spent much time with it. It is a shame something can't be done to boot those sophomoric punks off the chat permanently. I was really pleased to be able to get the help I did those couple days when I rooted the Ally, but from what I am seeing today I don't know how anyone could carry on an intelligent dialog with all that stuff flying.

Is there a way to block certain members from appearing on the screen?

You would have to use an actual irc client to be ableo to use /ignore Most actual clients (not the web ones) support it.

And why in heck would you ask a completely unrelated question in a thread about Ally help irc channel?

Try making a little effort on forum use and etiquette, for crying out loud!

Good call! People need to understand, to receive proper help the fastest, they need to put stuff in the right areas. It's cool though. He's new to this. :D

Well, if the Ally info really will apply for your phone, I would suggest you install ROM Manager from the Market, which installs ClockworkMod Recovery, then "flash alternate recovery" (at the bottom of ROM Mgr. window) to using Amon-RA Recovery. Then you can use Amon-RA to create nandroid backups. If you plan to put your apps on the SD card (using A2SD) then Amon-RA is the way to go, because it can access the EXT partition you will need on the SD card for that. ClockworkMod makes nandroids too, but it can't access the EXT partition.

However, be advised that these things discussed on this Ally forum are specifically meant for the Ally and no other phone. So they may not work correctly for you.

:)

If the person sending the pictures, or if you, are using SMS or MMS to send/receive them, AND either of you have applied the Velocity 1.1 update without "installing from scratch" it may be the issue being reported on the Velocity 1.1 thread regarding problems with messaging and pictures. If so there are details in the thread on what to do to fix the problem (involves re-installing Velocity 1.1 rather than "upgrading" to it).

how do i do this and where do i look in the phone to do this and what do i look for ?
 
If you have not "rooted" the Ally and installed the custom ROM Velocity, then my previous suggestion doesn't apply to you. Sorry for any confusion. :)

You did not answer KingofGreen's question. Is your Ally rooted? Which ROM are you using, and what version number?
 
i just wnt to say thank you (DOT) FOR YOUR HELP I FOUND OUT WHY I WAS NOT GETTING MY PIC,i went to network setting and turn on my data and that was it,now i can get my pics, thank you all ! and enjoy the day i no i am !

okay well with alot of effort and the help of a very smart person i succesfully put velocity 1.1 on my lg ally!!!! thank you
 
Very helpfull people on it. Only took a few moments to get someone to help me with my phone. When he had to go, very quickly found someone else to pick up where he left off.
Thank you guys so much!
 
Due to circumstances I am unwilling to discuss, I am taking a permanent hiatus from the room. I wish everyone good luck and I enjoyed helping people root

EDIT: After some reasonable thought, I have decided to go back to the room. I hope to see you guys there
