I really don't blame him -_- I don't know how these development forums get so off topic. Just think of the benefits of clean threads.. Noobs and vets alike could find the info they need with ease! We wouldn't have to post the same info over and over to keep it current! Now I love thanking my devs, and telling everyone how kick ass my favorite roms are, but lets learn from CM7 and start some threads in the general forum. Maybe we could even have a rom discussion forum! How cool would that be?

What do y'all think? would a forum like this work?

Maybe talk to a admin
I think it may help over time.. but just like all sections people post in the wrong section or triple post in every section.
And most people around here are to lazy to use HTC unlock method because they will have to flash from a computer. Let alone flash a rom... then talk about it on a different sub-forum....
Ill +1 the idea
Anything at this point to relieve tension in some threads and make the moderators jobs easier is a good thing in my mind

That looks like it might work..
It will take some time for everyone to adjust and get the idea...
That's alot of work to sticky and link every thread tho. Lol
I vote xhausx should do it!
*Edit*
But then the GSM people will want their own thing to. Uhh could be a mess...

Honestly, GSM and CDMA should just be two complete separate forums. Different General, different Q&A, etc

You'll have to talk to GODZSON, madnish30, toastcfh or lufc
It would take an admin to add forums though and that would be a mess with how many people there are working on multiple devices

Yeah it was strange coming back here when I traded my epic touch
They really have nothing that can mix so what's the point of having them share general,themes, and Q/A sections.

I helped get the G2X forum opened before its release date. I did my one good deed this year.. lol
But you should talk to jay and see if he can start to sticky threads in Q/A for now. And you can help keep them up to date
Only joking tho lol

Yes the Q&A probably has more potential.. i like this idea.. but general rom specific comments wouldn't belong there.. I dont feel its my place to contact anyone about this.. I'm barely not a noob.. but if anyone would like, please contact someone!

as much as i like myn's roms, the warm threads and the "mynions" that post off-topic stuff and don't know how to wipe really detract from all of the good work the developers do.

That is so sweet!!! That was contained in their q&a subforum so no new forum would be needed. So who's responsibility is it to start the q&a thread? I noticed some were started by a mod while others were by the rom developers.
It might be worth making this thread a poll so mods can get a gauge of public opinion about this. Personally I would vote hell yes!
I encourage devs to start a separate thread from the actual rom thread for off topic q&a type stuff. Miui has it here with the miui one stop shop thread. Cm had it for the most part in general. I support the separate thread idea.
And if only jay, haus and I were mods here.. Where is that petition?

!Please read this before posting in the Rezound development section!
I know this has been stated a thousand times before, but the mass number of posts in in the development section that are not development is getting out of hand.
THE DEVELOPMENT SECTION IS FOR DEVELOPMENT ONLY. If you are posting something that others may use regarding development such as a new ROM, kernel, guide, mod, recovery, or tool, it will be posted there. If in doubt, just post in the general section. Our moderator will move the post if it should be in the development section. Please do not post questions/concerns in the Android Development section.
THE Q&A SECTION IS FOR YOUR QUESTIONS REGARDING DEVELOPMENT. If you are going to post a question about development, it goes in the Q&A section. If you have a question about accessories or themes/apps, post your question there if you like. If you have a question regarding a particular part of development such as a current ROM or kernel, you can post in that particular thread to see if you can get some help. So if you are using Ziggy's kernel, you could ask a question in that thread. DO NOT POST A NEW THREAD FOR A QUESTION IN THE DEVELOPMENT SECTION.
THE GENERAL SECTION IS FOR EVERYTHING THAT DOES NOT FIT INTO THE OTHER CATEGORIES. If you have anything else that you would like to talk about that is not a question, accessory, theme/app, or method of development, you will want to post it in General. If you post a question in General (even though it should go in the new Q&A Section), you probably won't get yelled at. You will, though, if you post in the Development Section when you should not.
Please try to keep the development section clear and clean for the developers who will be giving us amazing ROMs and kernels to play with on our newly rooted/unlocked phones. This will make it much easier for us to find them in the future.
The funny thing is that this thread should actually go in development... And be stickied
I was going to post something similar, but it looks as though I don't need to

Ha, I know it should. But that would be kind of hypocritical. If a mod wants to, they can move it. As long as people read it and don't post in the dev section, I'll be happy
I feel like xda sub forums are lacking in some extra boards. Questions and guides need to be added to all the sub forums.

Yes, some extra boards would be nice. This will have to do for now, though.
I quit posting in peoples threads and just report all of them. I am sick of telling people so I just click report every time. No one will learn man. This thread will be burried too. I PM'ed the MODS to get a possible warning thread before allowing to post in Development. Haven't heard anything back.

Do you know how much more there would be to moderate if they gave EVERY device extra subforums? I think they tend to do a pretty good job of adding a q&a(or whatever is needed) section when it becomes necessary due to a device becoming more popular. I'm betting the rezound will be getting one now that its unlocked and development has taken off.

As is stated, do not post your questions in development forum. Before you start a new thread ask yourself this: "is what I'm posting a rom or a kernel?" or "is this a guide for development?"
If it is none of those, then post it in another forum.
Thanks..

Yes we need a Q/A thread like the Evo 3D has. Then people can ask questions about development and devs can share knowledge. It would be a really good thing to have. Sorta surprised that this forum lacks a Q/A sub forum.

How about flashable mods like my status bar mod and lllboredlll power menu mod?
Its technically development although not a ROM or kernel but does not really fit in the themes and apps forum.

Right and we really should get our own Q&A, general, and accessories sections in order to better organize and avoid more confusion.
Oh and OP, don't mess with the font and size again. We aren't blind and can increase the size if we need. I recommend this thread be closed, mods.
Please move to HTC Flyer -> Q&A

there will be a section but it will be a while. It will be a merged Q/A forum for view and flyer. Or at least thats what i was told.

You will probably get some flames for posting this in the development forum.
This post belongs in the Q&A forum and you will find what you are looking for in the General forum. Look for mpgrimm2's thread about bootloader differences and my post in that thread with many of the bootloaders, including the one you requested.
And please read the forum guidelines and post in the correct one next time.

Ramjet, your answer was great. You took the time to guide this guy in the right direction and even told him the thread starters name to help more, also adding that download links were there and notified him that this is the wrong place for a question. If someone couldn't find the thread with the info you provided, they don't need to be modding their phone anyway. I see you around here helping anyone that needs it. Good job.
Twisted, what's the sense in getting on Ramjet? He's not a troll by any means and was only trying to help. He probably didn't post a link because of the good directions he gave in finding it. The guy probably found the thread before you ever posted your link. Troll me if you want but that's just my 2 cents.

Why help? This is a community that's built on helping and learning (at least its supposed to be). I spent months asking stupid questions and then I got to the point where I could start helping. We need to let the mods sort out where the posts belong.
If I were on vacation and went to a gas station to buy beer and I didn't see any on the shelves, I might ask the clerk if this is a dry county. They would say yes or they'd say no we're out. I wouldn't expect the clerk to say "go do some f..king research".
Hello
Welcome Xperia Go users you are now officially part of this sub forum. You will see that the Xperia Go has now been added to this sub forum and has its own dev section as well. We will try to move all Xperia Go dev related threads from general to the New sub forum. If you know of a thread please post a link to it here and we will move them accordingly. Thanks in advance

Hello Xperia users !
I understand your point of view. But instead crying out loud how about we take it on to ourselves in getting this forum organized ? Each & every member of this community should be help each other in getting the forum organized.
I have a few ideas & would request everyone to suggest a few of their own which if implemented to the word could help in organizing the forums & make it easier for everyone to access the relevant information. That's what everyone wants right, to have access to the right information ?
Let's make having a TAG before each & every thread which tells us about which specific device it has information/on going discussion mandatory/compulsory.
Some examples of the Tags could be:
[XS], [XP], [XU], [SOLA]/[XSLA], [XGO], [XAS]
Just politely inform the Original Poster (OP) of each thread to update the title of the thread to reflect the correct Tags, let's try to make this forum more accessible to everyone.
