Not to sound like an ass, but i'm I'm seeing alot a lot of app related posts on this sub-forum when there's already one dedicated for such things. Please post accordingly to keep the forums clean. Thank you
I think it may be due to the non-clairity of the subforums. I have some questions regarding software, does it go under the general or the development? Maybe we could get a little better definition of what goes in the general forum
I don't know if it's just me, but i'm tired of seeing questions galore in the android development sub-forum all the time, and the hostility shown towards people posting in the wrong sub-forum. Is there any way an admin could create a new sub-forum for just Q&A's only, just like how the Galaxy S I9000 forum is set up? I think it would be great for everyone, and the general/development sub-forums would be a lot more organized. Does anyone else agree, or am I in the wrong?
I've included a poll just to see the general consensus about this.
We tried before and we still don't have one, but why not petition for one again.
X2 to this. It's getting old dealing with the madness.
I just hope one of the admins sees this thread this time around.
Would be nice...clear up some if the questions if they were compiled in one area for easier viewing.
In general this forum should be used for questions, answers, progress reports, and tools pertaining to development boards and non-device-specific hardware. This forum should be used for development relating to the hardware of devices and in many circumstances dealing with families of devices.
Questions pertaining to rooting and installing custom ROMs will be deleted imediately or moved to their respective device forums. No device-specific questions should be asked.
This forum is not a place to ask questions about operation or hacking of operating systems. Topics relating to bricking, bootloops, and other software related topics should not be here. Threads of this topic will be prompty deleted or removed to its specific forums.
If you want information, you must provide your own research first. Datasheets, Web-Pages, references.. If you would like a how-to JTAG or UnBrickable Mod guide be prepared to send your device or work with someone who can help.
Generally threads will be tagged with the related hardware ie... [hummingbird] [OMAP 36xx] [FSA928] or Series of related hardware [GalaxyS]. Software tools should have a descriptive tag [Source], [Tool], [Program] or [Release] and [Windows], [Linux], [Mac] or [Cross-Platform].
It is permissible to post non-original work as long as proper credit is given to the original author. The thread may be moved to general or deleted if the original author would like to take control of the discussion thread. This policy is applicable for this forum only as several tools are created during the development process of a piece of hardware and discarded, forgotten or left unsupported upon release.
Please keep in mind, this forum is for discussing hardware and methods of interface and/or modification. While the discussions may stray into specific devices, it is best to contain individual device related topics in their respecive forums.
With that said, please discuss hardware topics. It's nice to finally have a place we can go to and chat about cross-device hardware.
I think I might have posted my question in the wrong topic thread. How can I move it to it's proper place?

First of all, I want to tell you that, I absolutely agreed with what you had mentioned in this post.
Truly a serious forum to go through.
Thanks for clearcut rules!. I have been visiting XDA-Developers from more than a year. Yet, I did not get much opportunity to ask or to share. Somebody would always be there before me. This is not a disadvantage, it keeps the forum clean. I shall post only when it is crucial and relevant.
Regards

I was looking for a forum where I might be able to learn about how to move my messages erroneously posted to empty ghost town boards and it looks like I found my home. Lets get this discussion started.
Can anyone make custom rom for intex aqua young
how to root Blu dash jr

How about a separate forum for ROM flashing/bricking issues with the Note, to keep all that kind of traffic separate from general questions?
The Q&A forum is getting swamped with such questions, plus a lot of them cover the same issue and so getting them all in one place might help people searching for answers and also reduce the number of postings about the same thing.
It would also mean that people like me who aren't planning to flash their Notes (yet) can get on with reading and contributing general stuff.
Any thoughts?
I'd seriously consider proposing another one for whining and complaining, it seems to be second most popular subject, right after bricking. Fortunately, the superbrick panic subsides or we'd need a third one.
PS. What could be the name of the forum? "Help, I bricked my Note"?

im thinking of proposing a 500 post minimum for posting in the development section!
IMO it is very good idea. The general and q&a sections are full of brick related threads.
Hello!
First off, allow me to welcome both new and existing members to the Forums. These look to be exciting products, and I am really hoping to see a great community spring up here. As we like to do with a new forum, we like to introduce ourselves. Of course, as noted, the moderating team assigned to the forum include:
Team Leader/Senior Moderator @Moscow Desire
Forum Moderators @Siberian Tiger, @chrisd1a1, @Divine_Madcat @zacthespack
Personally, i am an avid tablet user, and am currently using both an HP Touchpad and Nexus 7 (2013), as well as a Samsung S4. Please make no mistake, while we all may not be owners of this specific device, it is our goal to be a strong part of the community, and i hope you will allow us this opportunity. I, like the other moderators, have an open door policy, and i welcome anyone to contact myself (or other staff members) to contact us if you have any concerns or questions about the forums (but please direct device specific questions to the Q&A forum).
With that said, i would like to take a moment to reiterate the overall guidelines of the forum, in the hope to prevent issues down the line...
1. Posting in the Development Forum. Creating new threads in the Dev Forum is restricted to development work; this may include Kernels, Root tools, ROMS, and other device developments. If you have a question about a ROM or the device, please post in the Q&A forum, so that the question may be answered correctly.
2. Arguments and Flaming.This really speaks for itself, but bears saying again. Be respectful, and be a community; work together and make this a place that is welcoming to everyone, new and old. If an argument starts, DO NOT participate in it. You have a "Report Post" button. Use it. Let the Mod's take care of it. You are not moderators, so please don't act like it. You don't make anything better by participating, and you may find yourself in trouble as well.
3. Please take a moment to search before posting; forums for popular devices can get hectic, and it is only made worse by having 5 different threads on the same topic. While mistakes happen, we need everyone's help to make sure that the boards are readable and usable for everyone. Odds are, if you have a problem, you are not the first person to have had the issue; you may very well find the solution already discussed. If a thread covering your topic is already there, please keep the discussion in that thread.
4. We are all here to help the users, and to mainly help continue the development of the devices. This is a Development site, not Facebook or other social networking sites. While some off topic banter is to be expected, please keep off topic conversations in the appropriate area; this is especially true for development threads. Too much OT makes threads hard to use for people with real issues/suggestions/questions
