[Important] - Development Thread Titles! - TouchPad Development

Hello all,
Firstly I would like to introduce myself, I am the newly appointed Forum Moderator for this forum and hope together we can keep this place clean and a great place to develop!
The first thing I have noticed is thread titles are pretty inconsistent, many lack key information a use might need to know and this makes it not very easy to scan through the forum and find what your looking for.
Hence I would like to introduce Development thread title structures
The layout is simple enough, and I ask ALL developers to move to this new structure as soon as possible to help keep the forum tidy.
The structure is as follows:
[TYPE] [ANDROID VERSION] [NAME] [OTHER INFO] [DATE]
[TYPE] - Here you would enter if you thread is a ROM, or Kernel or Mod etc.
[ANDROID VERSION] - Version of android you thread is based on or for (If a ROM this could also include the base ROM used i.e CM10)
[NAME] - The name of your ROM/mod
[OTHER INFO] - Anything else you feel users want to know before entering your thread
[DATE] - The date or the last update/release/change of your thread
An example of this format would be:
[ROM] [4.2.2 CM10] [Zac's home grown ROM of coolness][Now with extra cool!][22/03/13]
If developers could please change their current threads as soon as possible, and all threads made after this post should conform to this layout!
Thank you

[HTC Elf: Posting Rules, Please READ BEFORE posting.]

ATTENTION!!​We are glad that our community is growing really fast. Unfortunately, the number of topics in the threads of the forums grow in a very larger manner
Unfortunately not every user is aware of the general forum usage and posting rules​
As a direct consequence to that MODERATORS will apply the Elf forum, a very strict moderating policy which might imply:
immediate thread deletion when newly created thread addresses an already discussed topic;​
immediate thread deletion when newly created thread addresses an issue such as "Which ROM is the best", "Elf vs iPhone", etc.;​
immediate post deletion in the case of double posting;​
immediate thread deletion and a temporary BAN in case of thread spamming (to be more exact, creating the same thread twice, with different name, etc.);​
immediate thread deletion when newly created thread subject lines are not as per posting policy mentioned below​
closing old threads (you can always PM a MOD with the link of the thread you want to reopen);​
eventually deleting old threads​
Please consider a few guidelines before posting to the Elf Forum and Subfora! (also applies to other Fora!)​
DO check whether your question has been asked before!
There are some questions that have been asked before several times.
Use the “Search” function on the brown menu bar on the top of the page. There you have the options the have Google search inside XDA-developers site or to use the built-in forum search
If your search has no / unsatisfying results, try with different keywords​
If your question has been asked, read the thread or use the “Search” function to search through that specific thread
If you don’t find the answer, try posting in that thread as chances are bigger someone can help you.​
Alternatively you can start using the XDA-Developers FireFox & IE Search Bar Plug In.​
DO read the Wiki!
Chances are that the answer to your question is already to be found in the Wiki. So please check the Wiki and read the FAQs.​
DO edit the Wiki!
All the information that is stored in the Wiki is dynamic. Therefore it can be edited by everyone. Updating the Wiki in this way leaves us with an up to date Wiki which can successfully answer other user’s question only by reading it.
Also posting an answer you get on the forum to the Wiki helps other users with future similar questions.​
Don't be afraid of editing the Wiki if you don't understand the wiki syntax: Formating may seem a bit complicated at the beginning, but you don't have to care too much if you just want to add content, add it as if you were writing a text document and sure someone more experienced with wiki syntax will edit it after and correct the bad formating mistakes.​
New here?
If you are a first timer, welcome aboard!
Please read the General Guidelines of XDA-developers posting.​
As a rule of thumb, let’s try to maintain the following structure:​
Elf
(General talk. Post general issues related to Diamond, software, skins, fixes, tips, tricks, OS issues, etc.)​
Elf upgrading
(Specific talk. Post issues related to upgrading only, Utilities, HardSPL, Radios, unbricking, etc.)​
Elf accessories
(Specific talk. Post issues related to accessories only, SD Cards, headsets, remote, etc.)​
ATTENTION CHEFs and USERS!
Let's try to post our ROMs the following way:​
Code:
[ROM][LANGUAGE][DATE]rom name and version (Build)[STATUS]
[KITCHEN][WWE][08/08/08]KOKOTAS ELF(in) Hybrid Kitchen (version 1.3)[ONLINE]
[PRJ][WWE][BETA]BRAM / NOONSKI Touch Surface 6.1 Public Beta Release Candidate Unskinned[ONLINE]

* If name is too long for Thread title, leave out the [STATUS] ([ONLINE], [OFFLINE])​
For upgrade tools (HSPL, SSPL, CID, SIM, etc.), use:
Code:

[Ask Your Questions Here] Questions & Answers for Alpine Users

I have decided to open a Questions and Answers thread on this section of the forum. This is a good way to keep the number of new threads with questions down to a minimum, which will make new threads essentially for people that are contributing to the Alpine. This includes, but is not limited to, people that are providing the following:
- Roms & Kitchens
- Programs & Apps
- Fixes & Tweaks
- Skins & Themes
- Tips & Tricks
I would like to request the help from other members to keep the thread in order and in check. This will have the added side effect of creating an ever self updating knowledge base that will far extend the content of the Wiki. This will in turn save us from having to answer the same question a billion times...
Please refer to the Wiki first before asking any questions though! It can be located here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=HTC_Alpinehttp://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=HTC_Magician

Some of you are already doing this and I request the others to do so as well.
[ROM]
To indicate that the thread is in fact a rom. This has to be the first Tag for your title.

ATTENTION NEWCOME ROM DEVELOPERS

Hi there,
this message is target to you that are about to develop a new rom (veteran must already know that)
These are some special rules that you have to impress in your head before clicking on "Open New Thread" with [ROM] in title:
If you are about to post a new Rom you must be in compliance with XDA rule and with good sense:
New Roms thread must have:
- Exactly say which base rom do you used : Stock, custom from another developer.
- Ask permission to use that rom as your base to the original Developer(s).
- Give credits to Original Developer(s) in your first post:
(eg: Credits and thanks for this Rom goes to XXXXX
- Give credits, if possible, to people that you grabbed: scripts, themes and apps.
- You rom MUST BE free of paid apps, warez is not tollerated here.
- Your first post must have as more info that you can, " this is my rom" and a link is not tollerated.
- Thread Title : " [ROM][date of release]xxxxxxxxxxx[/b]
As a user of this thread you must read this (it isn't invisible), so i'll take this as accepted by everyone.
I'm bored of reports on people that don't follow the respect in work of other user and basically, with this thread you don't have other excuses.
Every ROm thread found without those (simple) rules will be closed and links deleted without furter notice.
Bonus rules:
- adfly links are not allowed.
- If a Rom are found by us illegal for XDA, every user is not allowed to have the link of that in your signature.
Feel free to pm me for any clarification.
Thanks for your cooperation.

Might do well to search the Beta thread, maybe with the word emoji, and for ensuring the upgrade from:

Which magisk version did you install? Use only 20.3 to root. 20.4 causes issue. Btw only way to get back the missing fonts and emoji is to flash oos again afaik.
