Hi Prateekgujral,
Thanks for making us newbies feel welcome.
Wanted to extend my thanks to Dexter (who's probably still lurking around from his 'duties' at tabletroms.com), jon2555, derArtem (danke), mblaster, and the rest for making the folio still relevant and exciting.
Do have a few Q's and observations to 'report' on folio3x v0.4 ...please direct me on how to do post these to the correct thread(s)?
Cheers,
Running folio3x v0.4 (jut managed to get it 'run' as intended...thanks again guys)
You can always send me a PM with the links and your concerns.
Cheers!

Update: 24-12-2011
[View] and [Flyer]
Oke guys, spread the word if you see it.
But i think its wise to start using prefixes [View] and [Flyer] in general section.
Since we dont have a separated Q&A.
So [Q][View] and [Q][Flyer] in General section will do.
Thanks

The View will be added into the forums upcoming week. We are not sure if it will get his own dedicated forum or just a combined forum title like Flyer/View.
But at least it will be found more easily

New On XDA or New With Your S3, Here are few Things You Need To Remember Before Posting in the 'General Q&A section' about your Issues.
Here You See And Learn Many More Things When Your Are New On Xda
A Very Nice Detailed Info By Saywhatt
[HOW TO] make a substantial THREAD, POST, QUESTION and POLL
[GUIDE] HOW TO POST: Understanding the UI in posting
[HOW TO] make a substantial THREAD, POST, QUESTION and POLL
Huge Thanks To Saywhatt For Sharing Knowledge
So Here We Go ,
Well we always do notice that people in the 'General Q&A section' are not putting nearly enough information in their Post and Title to get proper solution to ther issues.
Reasons:
[*] A bad Title like ' plz help', ' urgent', 'phone dead' etc.
[*] No relavent info about the phone Model/ ROM/KERNEL/MODEM etc in there post.
Since insufficient info causes hindrence for members who are willing to help and leads to ask lots of questions from them and the very same(lack of info) will delay getting the solution for you.
So this Guide will show you what you need to include in your post to get the most efficient answer to your question.
We'll start with the Title:
- Just Writing Help , Bricked , Guys Help Me out Wont Be Enough For People Having knowledge Of You’re your Issue To Help You Out.
Provide A Better Title Like
“ I Soft Bricked My Phone “
“ Having Kernel Issues”
- You need to be precise, and describe what you're looking for in your thread.
Next, the Information you need to state before you even get into asking your question.
Dont Start Off Or Just Dont Write 'I Flashed This Rom/Kernel And Cannot Boot Up or Stuck At Logo / Boot Loop plz help' and sit and wait for solution's to pour in for you.
Rather try to provide more basic info like:
- The make of your phone. There are many different variants of your device Samsung Galaxy S3 I9300 /G/M/P/T
- What Rom/Kernel/Modem you are using?
- Are you rooted/unrooted?
- Have you flashed any mods/scripts/themes?
- Have you changed DPI? If yes, to what?
- Have you done anything to try to solve your issue prior to posting the same?
since these would be very valuable information,
which do aid a member who is ready to help with your issue for sure.
Additionally, visual aids like 'Screeen shot' or a small 'Video clip' will help a lot in resolving issue's in a better way for sure.
For people who are with Stock Rom's:
Please dial *#1234# and post the results (thanks to fxrb) if your not sure about the Rom/Kernel/Modem info.
And also adding the relavent info of ROM/Kernel/Modem to ur signature will save time in providing the same.
After You Completed The Above Steps Its Time When you can ask your question.
And do Remember:
- Do not ask "What rom/kernel/theme is the best?" -or- Something that you have not searched for (it is infact very obvious if you havent), since its against XDA rule
- Be specific and precise in what you want/need. Do not write a 10,000 word essay, or a 3 word question.
And Always Remember On Xda The Most Important Rules :
- Be polite: People never want to help someone who wont appreciate it, or is rude to them. Remember your p's and q's
- Do not bump your thread: It gets annoying and against the rules
This is just a begining and will take a bit to include all of the information needed.
I know there are lots of more experienced users than I, and would love feedback of what to include.
Please do not hesitate to post in the thread or even PM me with your valuable inputs you think needs to be included in this thread.
Reserved
and another one if needed
and one more
well its a pretty decent effort from ur end for sure Buddy
now its the people (new Comers) who has to utilize the same in an efficient way
and if its made 'Sticky' by the Mod's, will be more helpfull

A useful guide for noobs but unfortunately as is always the case on XDA it will probably get lost in translation and as usual you'll have people on asking the same usual questions, the only solution as ive said all along is when people register on XDA as part of the sign up process they must tick a disclaimer that they need to use the search function and if they don't and ask noobish questions they get a temporary ban for a week and if after that they persist a full ban, it might sound extreme but as far as i can see this really is the only solution to stop noobs from posting the same questions day in, day out, year in, year out, it seriously has to be implemented, many good people have left XDA from when i first came on here because of noobs and to be honest you can hardly blame them, pretty much every answer noobs want is highly likely to already be on XDA somewhere and can be found via the search function.

so choose according to yours, at&t , or whatever your device model is

Bumping means, to move a thread to the top of the forum, with a pointless reply (usually to one's own thread, to promote something or to get an answer to an unanswered question)

its great to have a thread like this, all things in one place. To start off i am looking forward to some rooting tricks which can enable the sdcard to be formatted or behave as internal memory on stock rom. CM 13 does allow that but here i mean stock rom , give a thumbs up if anyone got something:fingers-crossed: to share.

● Kuroko no Basket all seasons ( 3 if I remember properly)
● Sword Art Online all seasons

Sorry for being off topic guys. As u see there are 11 threads in our j5 roms and kernel forums which have been closed either on OP request or GPL compliant problem or because of warez involvement! This made our forums look really untidy. So what I am asking here is do the forum moderators have the authority of "Deleting" the entire thread? If so then can we do something so that forum looks cleaner?
Edit:
I just downloaded 16 GB source of Pacman rom and setup up my laptop for the build process. So would any of u guys like to work in collaboration with me on this provided u have some knowledge on this source stuff ( i will take help from Ganesh or Nick as well)? Ofcourse it will be after 2 months. Just wanted to ask in advance as i couldn't get my head off this .

You should have posted here, although i mentioned in OP to not post stuff related to development.
I dont know if is possible to delete that threads and i wouldnt suggest that since our forum is not even popular yet. Deleting these threads would make our j5 forum to not look popular.
We got J5 forum because we had some threads with roms & kernel and there were some other threads.
I will report your post in the thread regarding MM warning... because this kind of post lead to more replies which will make the thread more cluttered...
Hey guys.
I have just managed to get myself a new contract phone ! After years of no credit they are giving me a new phone ! I will have the Honour 8 as from Monday !
So my question is, what do I do with this J500FN ?
It's running really well, rooted, TWRP and ZONIK's Performance ROM.
Do I keep it and just use it for helping test ROMs on here ( I like this forum)
Or do I sell it on ?
What do you think ??

Huawei Honour 8 is a nice phone and i see that it has xda forum too. I would say to keep it, sell it or give it to someone from your family or to a developer which is interested to build for this phone (FROM SOURCE !) haha. Its my opinion.
Btw, you shouldnt have quoted KingWilliam post in warning thread....

All these rules!! I'm trying to get the hang of it all!! I will delete it
Thanks for answering.
The Honour 8 is a great phone I'm chuffed to be getting it.
I think I'm going to keep the phone and just use it for helping to test ROMs and yes from scorce if they are available !
I have to use the best these there is and I must say that the one I'm using is about the best that I have used !
I hope that CM13 well be out soon and the RR looks promising.
Good idea about the thread

Yes I think I'm going to keep the J5. I will just use it for testing ROMS on here. I like being involved in this forum and love the development or our android !
Please remember this if you ever do come up with any new roms and want somebodu to do the testing.
I'm chuffed that I'm getting a new phone. I didn't go out to get the Honour 8 they offered it and I had read about it on here.
It's a great phone with loads of RAM and it gets lots of OTA updates. I wonder how long it will be before it's rooted !!
I will let you know how it goes

Henkate, I understand why you have done what you have done
The only problem is that you have stopped the roms that we are using and people ain't gonna be happy with that.
There are alot of people that were using them roms and were waiting for updates.
Your actions ain't gonna make you any friends mate but that obviously don't bother you.
Rules are rules I know but nobody was complaining . I too noticed the warez etc in the ROMs but didn't go report it as we were using the roms and it was making out phones better.
I could understand it more if you was making ROMs from source your self but your not.
I don't think many people are gonna work with you mate.
