Hi,
I would like to propose the creation of a central reference thread for each sub-forum within the X10mini/pro fora.
They would contain rules, how to search, basics, FAQs, links to rooting, tutorials/guides, mods, themes, apps,... with respect to the respective sub-forum.
To get an idea check e.g. Hero CDMA Android Dev.
This will hopefully
-help organizing the fora more clearly
-prevent the same questions coming up all over again
-provide a useful pool of up-to-date information for both new and experienced users
-reduce everyone's need to search for fundamental things
-negate the need to otherwise sticky so many threads that the fora are just becoming unclear and clogged
You would be responsible to propose threads kept for future reference.
Opinions pls.
Thx and Best, DK
i think we have a thread like the CDMA thread made by dettofatto. the only thing is that we have multiple threads on same topic which could be deleted
just checked them briefly and yes, very good and helpful, not stickied though
so referencing them would be a must but imo wouldn't contradict my proposal about the central thread...
still, that's just me and its about you...will therefore patiently wait for further comments on this
Ed. I can add a poll if you think that's more helpful/faster
Sounds good.. and while we are at it.. get people to stick to the threads.. put all Themes in the Themes and Apps thread (not in Development) keep DEV stuff in the Dev Thread etc.. perhaps add a Newbie Thread where newbs can ask for help with issues so they don't fill the other threads...
Why are there Themes in the Dev section?
But yes a reorg is needed.

My concern is create two separate forums for x10 mini and x10 mini pro

unfortunately happens regularly, excuses are manyfold and it would be naive to think this project will prevent it
still should be well worth the effort
cleanup and heavy thread shifting will be done anyway, already started but due to time restriction only on the dev fora...but will be continued

I assume you mean for all subfora and not only for dev?
are accessories, t&a and so on so different that one cannot be used for/is incompatible to the other device?
then I would talk to admin, so pls enlighten me
I think that is fine and useful to put all important sw,updates and guides in same thread and link discussions only to this thread, of course then each sw has own discussions for help and experiences.
I would like a forum reorg
i also think that there are too many simillar threads, some that are just questions and are very missleading sometimes, also in the wrong place, maybe a structure like
*general
--tutorials/findings/configs/etc
--questions
*developement
--e10i/u20i
---->findings/breakthroughs/tutorials
---->questions
--e10i specific
---->findings/breakthroughs/tutorials
---->questions
--u20i specific
---->findings/breakthroughs/tutorials
---->questions
*themes
--method tutorials
--themes postings
--questions
*requests
or something like that because a reorganization is in need
also i think that there should be a section for both mini and pro because they may be different in hardware, but many methods, apps and ideas frome one work on the other and i feel that sometimes we miss out on developement from one or the other
hi
thx all for the contribution, I waited some time hoping additional ones might be posted, but maybe all are happy with the current suggestions...or waiting for my response...
lets comment:
all devices get as default the layout
xx General
xx Development
xx Accessories
xx Themes & Apps
device specific we have the known two dev fora, one for e10i and one for u20i and I don't think I can convince admin to create another one for shared development
not that I don't see the potential advantage, but I assume "misuse" would dominate so I'm fine as it is
still I also considered it wise to provide a place to collect development results of any kind usable on both devices
so alternately you have to specify dual usage in the thread title and we can also create an additional thread with references on that
reaching certain criteria a separate Q&A can be added, which I personally like very much and will address to admin immediately when a fore mentioned criteria are fulfilled
so as mentioned we are bound to the general forum layout, but what we might achieve could be like this:
*general
---->tutorials/findings/configuration/requests/FAQs/troubleshooting/references/how to/etc
---->e.g. separate thread like "newbies questions here"
---->OT chat thread if you like
*accessories
---->all accessories (batteries, cases, screen protection,...)
*development
--e10i specific
---->development (non app, non theme)/findings/breakthroughs/tutorials/roms/guides/modifications
---->reference thread for everything proven working/usable on both devices
--u20i specific
---->development (non app, non theme)/findings/breakthroughs/tutorials/roms/guides/modifications
*themes and apps
---->method tutorials/themes postings/applications posting/screen shots/miscellaneous (like splash screens,...)
*questions&answers (hopefully soon)
---->for all the rest (when available)
not stating this is finalized but it should give a good idea
comments pls
Cheers, DK
Reorganize! Hellyah!
Reorganize! Hellyah!
I intend to start this weekend, because I won't find the time before, but it's scheduled...
sounds really good!
maybe creating at the theme section a difference for mini and pro, or does the most of them on both models?
I would like to see a Q&A section. It would be nothing but beneficial as a place for people to ask questions without cluttering the general thread.

I already requested it, it will be available as soon as site admin finds the time
I figured that, just throwing my .02 cents out there.

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

Hi all,
You must have noticed some changes in our moderation team and system. Rather than having moderators on various different devices, it was decided that al related devices should come under the same team.
And so, all Samsung Tab forum are now going to moderated by:
PeartFan40,
arrrghhh,
GadgetCheck,
siberian tiger and
kennethpenn
I have the privilege to lead the above team of efficient and thorough forum moderators.
Now, RULES!
Dont worry, I am not going to write a bible of rules for you.
Well, just 4
1 - Please search before you post a new thread, a question, or a suggestion. Keep the dev forums clean
2 - Please be tolerant towards other members. Don't forget you were a newbie yourself.
3 - Please do not take matters in your hands. PM me or another mod with the link to the post and why you think it should be reported. Or, simply click the magic Triangle (Report button).
4 - And please, use ENGLISH
And last, not be any means the least... a little fun doesn't hurt anyone
Feel free to PM me at anytime with whatever you need or want or discuss or even a hello.
Cheers guys!

Also, what exactly makes this an "official" group?

By official it means it's a a group I (not my first day on XDA) made here, with people from here.
With devs, that cook the roms, with designers who make themes, who posts here on Xda.
The other 2 (only which I found, I searched) are:
1) Inactive without replies and you can say an outdated one.
2) Which has been posted yesterday by GMattZ, but as I can see and feel it's not right, it's a group from Reddit, they just post the link today.
Maybe I take it a bit personal, but it doesn't seem right to me.
* With this said, I would love to ask from you to make it an official thread which me and @customworx (other old Xda member) will maintain.
Thanks in advance and sorry if mistakes have been made.

By using the official tag in the title you're suggesting that this group is representative of, and an official work of XDA, which it isn't. I have no issues with you creating the group, but please remove the official tag from the title, it's misleading, and you don't have the right/status to claim that this is an official XDA project.
PS. Are you sure you're tagging the right person? @customworx has only been a member for a few months and has zero posts.
