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.

first of all this aint the right place to place the questions , did you even read the OP ?
and next thats because there are different varients of s3 and each has its different forums
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)

Yah so after using the JellyBlast v3.04 for a month, i thought it was perfect until i got into a problem last night. Ace(i) kept freezing. I had to restart several times:crying:, so when i restarted it the 4th time, it boots only in recovery mode now.
I have flashed Stock Firmware (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1611225)
Which i succeded in but the phone hasnt still been able to boot.
Please look to it.
P.S. In recovery mode, i tried clicking on the option reboot system now but then it just freezes on the last part, i.e.
---Appling Multi-CSC-----
Multi_CSC : there are common apks
multicsc : src/system/csc/INS/system/ .

Are you a noob?
If yes
Then be a newbies first and then register at XDA Forum
Now, I assume you are back and now you are not a noob and understand the XDA rules that SEARCH BEFORE POSTING
And you won't even had to search
You could JUST OPEN YOUR EYES AND SEE
There is a thread called
POST YOUR QUESTIONS HERE
No one should help you unless you post your questions here

You are fast
You just posted it directly before I wanted to post it
I Can't Help You . . . I'm a Horse
Thanks to all the supporting members of XDA
You really care about XDA
Those who are criticising you are surely noobs
High 5 to you and pacepalm to noobs.
First, due to respect, I called them newbies as I thought I was also like them first.
But I was wrong
If they are only newbies at first
Then I was a pro from birth
I doubt I have posted any question.
I only remember posting a question which was related to the problem coming during recompiling Systemui.apk and that too I solved on my own.
I feel very bad for them.
A way to tell you it without using words...

I'm sorry but I believe this is all a load of crap, yes I support your idea of keeping the forum clean and that users should search before posting, however if they do search and cannot find any answers they have a right to post here in the general forum
I believe posting everything in one thread is dumb and inefficient let's say everyone does post in your thread there will be about a thousand questions and nobody will be able to cope and so it will flood with questions and very little answers, Threads are a lot easier to answer and to help people when they're spread out and left how they are as users can easily see what the problem is and answer the individuals question easily, compared to searching through your thread which makes you read question after question to the supposed answer to your question you may of asked the day before only to find it isn't a solution to your problem but yet another question posted by a fellow user...
again may i say i support the idea of asking people to search and it is your right to not answer them but simply refusing until they post in your thread is dumb, There's nothing wrong with the current system and the forum can be improved if we simply ask politely that thwy search more often and even direct them to the older threads with links, that's what this community is for, helping fellow developers
The usual "Xx James xX" only on mobile...

You are new here and don't understand WE DON'T HAVE A Q&A SECTION
And if you don't know how it feels to see same noob questions filling the General section and then the Guides pushing back and then again noobs asking for it
First, you are the only person right now saying IT IS WRONG TO KEEP GENERAL SECTION CLEAN?
I have said that if nobody
Then I will help every one who questions in my thread
Also it won't matter if questions are repeated there.
You understand?
Here it is against the rules to post a guide or update in development section.
And these things are more important than the noob questions.
You are talking about right of noobs.
You should know rules come before the rights.
If they don't search before posting, they don't deserve this right.
And the next thing, even if they do, if they can't find answers, I WILL ANSWER THEM IF NOBODY DOES.
That's my promise.
I don't know why you support them.
I never saw such noob posting such a question
"Error in smali decompiling"
".xml scatter "
The answer they seek are not necessarily be answered by S5830i General Section
They can be found anywhere on internet.
The questions they post about ROMs and kernel are answered numerous times
They don't have 10 posts and try to be good at it.
Brick the device by their foolishness(It is not easy to Brick a device, and even if you do there are several guides to restore it), and then flood the General section.
I didn't ever want to say that about them but it is true.
So, I never used cuss words about them but you know.
It is kind of spamming they do.
If genuine questions are also posted there.
Then what is the problem.
It is clean.
Believe me it's healthier for noobs
If nobody helps them in General section
Then they will Atleast read which they don't do and that is the problem.
Long Live XDA
Long live General Section(which it won't do if tsunami continues)
Regards
I say again I am not against cleaning up the forum -.-
I just believe your idea is ineffecient
I propose instead that we create a partition and pass it onto a senior mod asking for a new forum section.

I already tried that
But I think its not possible
Someone selling a S3 for £100 but said it needs jtagged said its a easy fix Am guessing they bricked it so just wanted to know if it can be fixed and worth the £100 or am I best staying away
Stay away unless he's a very very very good friend!
Seriously you may well be dropping a ton on a device that is completely dead, but you might be able to break it up for profit, the screen/digitizer costs more than that but it really is up to you at the end of the day, it's a shot in the dark
Thanksss ill leave it then i was wondering if its so cheap to fix why they didn't get it done them selfs

Not supposed to help here the guy is pointing out the correct thread for help .
But in my opinion it would be far better to either rename General to Questions and Answers or just have an open forum where everything is mixed up under one label making it even harder to find anything .
But it also reads as a number of users would prefer utter chaos and no rules .
Their is a significant rise in bricked help lost IMEI posts all due to complete failure to bother reading the rules or even the basic faqs and guides .
Sh**** if a user cannot post correctly how on earth are they going to flash without bricking .

The polite way is to answer the question, then point out it's in the wrong section, rather than just spam "post in Q&A" to force your post count up, at least 500 of his posts (assuming they don't get deleted) are "post in the right section" with no help at all.
You two forum police will do much better if you offer help whilst informing them they are in the wrong section.
they need to learn that they will get help if they follow the rules

But if you just spam "post in the right section" it just makes you look like an ass, you are showing no desire to help, just boss everyone around and call them out in public, you can at least send them a PM something along the lines of "I have reported your post regarding xxx question to the moderators so it can be moved to the correct section, in future please post questions in the Q&A section."
This post accomplishes the same thing without basically shouting "GTFO YOU NOOB!!!" that is basically what you put across whenever you post in these question threads.

Thats where you are wrong i am afraid .
The posts arrive in General section as users are to lazy to read the rules and far to lazy to bother to read faqs and guides . The majority just want a quick fix and care nothing at all about what XDA was or should be .
Glenbun takes a months holiday and we will still get multiple bad post jeez as i type this there are probably three more bad posts .
End result is a forum that's hard to navigate hard to find anything as the good stuff is hidden under piles of rubbish piling up on a daily basis and that's what noobs complain about what is basically their own mess .
Time in my view for a serious review of the rules and the layout as neither really work .
Multiple experienced users no longer bother to even read these non development forums .

Instead of spaming the thread just report the post and tell the mods to move it to QaA thread. No need to talk about that.
Thread moved to Q&A
Also, if you have any suggestions you can always put them here ---> [All XDA Members] Feedback/Recommendations for XDA. It is read by the Admins daily.
hey guys, I have a question : i have a galaxy s2 phone bought from france, but now i'm in lebanon and i need to use it with a lebanese sim card. the problem is that lebanese cell companies have restricted the use of cell phones that do not have their imei registrated with their companies. Is there a way i could unlock my phone to work with a lebanese sim ? Or should i say unlock the sim ?
I am very confused, if someone could explain to me how this lock works and how to get my phone working in lebanon. Thank you very much in advance !!
Based on your description of the issue, it sounds like you can't do much (or anything) on your end of things... If the carrier requires an IMEI registration, it wouldn't matter whether your phone is unlocked or not, since the carrier still needs to recognize your IMEI. I don't know how the process works, but I would guess you'll need to talk to the carrier about having your phone "registered".
I have to say, their policy is quite retarded, if that's true...
Are you serious?
There is clearly a [Q] here, so don't you think that Q&A is the appropriate subforum?!
Also you when you categorized your thread as a question thread, you probably got a popup message stating that you're about to break forum rules by posting the thread in the wrong subforum, but you still went on and posted it here anyway.
Not to mention that there's a sticky thread on top of this subforum saying that this, what you have done, is against forum rules.

Okay, first of all, let me just state that this post was, before i reported it, in the Galaxy S II General subforum.
Second, just because my join date is recent doesnt mean im a complete idiot that can't read rules and start my period on new forums by breaking rules, there are plenty of people out there who knows to read rules before entering a forum..
Also, how is this flaming?! Please explain.
I was simply telling this member that he was breaking forum rules, maybe a bit harsh or not, since you get several warnins in several ways if you're about to break forum rules.
At least it was a more interesting problem than the usual repetetive tripe that appears on here.
Ive not heard of the OP's problem before.
Correct, having a recent join date doesn't mean you're an idiot, that's not what I said. Thanks for reading the forum rules, not many do. Flaming is verbally attacking someone, so technically, maybe you could class it as not flaming. Either way, it's a harsh way to enter a forum with that kind of greeting. True the OP may have posted in the incorrect section, but next time there's no need to be harsh about it. Apologies if I've over-reacted. End of discussion on my part, this isn't helping anyone.

I could understand that he bypassed sticky threads, or the he/she didn't actually read rules of posting. But i couldn't understand how he bypassed a popup warning that appears if you post a question in wrong subforum. So that's what got me angry.
But maybe i overreacted too, you cant expect anyone to know everything, even if you know that everything has some forms of rules, which you clearly should know about, otherwise there wouldn't be any rules
well i dont either want this to be an unrelated discussion, so i'll just say Im sorry for overreacting. To you Hopper and to OP (if he/she will even read this )
Hello,
Here, I will try to bring a method to your notice which will maximize the chances of your question being answered and that too in very less time.
Introduction
Let me introduce you to Android Question and Answer, Help and Troubleshooting Section
This section serves the purpose of a hub to people seeking answers to their questions. Any miscellaneous query related to Android devices is to be posted here. Some good guys check around for questions and try their best to solve them. They try their best to make you understand in easiest way possible
(Their Thanks button can be pressed as a reward to them )
However, we try to answer each and every question with our knowledge but sometimes, some quesions remain unanswered. This isn't the fault for people here but some reasons can be held responsible. Here are some of that:
Nobody really knows the answer.
They aren't able to understand the question itself.
The question requires higher developer knowledge to be answered.
Question is too device specific which can't be answered generally.
There are many more reasons but these are the General Ones.
So, let's try to ward off these reasons and boost the chances of your question getting answered. :highfive::victory:
Tips to avoid these conditions
☻Generally, answer is right there, staring at our face but we don't do a little search. So, we may get our answer easily if we search a bit. So, let's start some searching before posting. :fingers-crossed:
New to XDA and trying to know it more? Here is your All in One Solution-
[GUIDE] - XDA New User Guide - Getting started on XDA
You are looking for a guide ? You may find them here -
Android Software Development Section
Android Software Hacking [General]
Looking for themes? Try here -
Android Themes Section
Want some Xposed Modules? Go here -
Xposed Framework Modules
Looking for some Apps or Games? Here -
Android Apps and Games Section
Looking for some ROMs but can't find your device forum? Maybe they are here -
Miscellaneous Android Development
Other General Items -
Android General
[IMPORTANT] Generally, people can't help people much because they don't own same device as in question and may tell something that may not work on that device. So, here community proves to be useful. You probably own a well known device and XDA has Forum for that. If so, you can ask there in the QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS SECTION
If you own a very popular device, you may find there forums here-
XDA Forums Index
If your device is a little older or with less activity, then you may find it's forum here- XDA Legacy and Low Activity Device Forums
If you think your device is a popular one and does not have any forum, then you can request one here -
Request your Device Sections here
(Please post in respective forums as your awesome community knows your device better than us. They may answer more appropriately and correctly than we may. It will certainly make you accomplish your answer easily :good
☻Sometimes people can't understand what we are trying to convey. This may be due to insufficient information we are giving or due to us understanding that the information we gave is sufficient. If this problem gets solved, you may get your answer in one turn. This is explained in next section How to make a good question
How to make a good question?
One thing we all agree that few things only are general in Android, so wee can't give one answer to a similar question. Many times confusion arises and people hesitate to answer because they're not sure if they will be correct or not. Many times a question badly written remain unanswered. So, These are some tips on how to make a good question and increase chances of getting it answered:
Here's an example of a good question:
Mr.GoodQuestioner said:
Good Evening/Hello/Hi,
I own a Nexus 9(11 GB) and I am running stock firmware (KLP 5.0.3), unrooted and bootloader locked. I recently downloaded an app called malALARMware v0.1 from Play Store but it didn't seem to do anything. I tried contacting dev via email but he replied me with a "lol". It was the last thing I did with my device before this happened:
When I rebooted my device today, i found that all my apps were secured by a password which I didn't set. Hope you'll help me.
Thank You
