We have these all over the forum, why don't we have one in the HTC One section?
I think it would be helpful for those who are coming from other devices to the HTC One or for those of us considering leaving the HTC One for another device to have a place to discuss these topics.
I personally am coming up JUMP eligible on the 20th and I'm looking at my options. Are you all sticking with your Ones or do you have your eyes somewhere else? The Galaxy Note 3 is really tempting with the 0 down right now. I was looking at the G2 until I heard about the overheating problems - that's too much like my last LG device, the G2x, to take the risk so I've cut it out.
What does everyone think? It seems like we won't see HTC's new flagship until March or so and I've got a shot camera and a bad battery.

Off Topic...
We need an off topic section (frankly we need one in every forum with a decent amount of traffic)
It'd be a great place to ask opinions on things (like I want to ask for peoples opinions on the new Windows Phone 7 in depth preview and how the OS looks ON ITS OWN (doesn't stack up to Android IMO because well...it's too damn closed) etc...but I can't ask that here because some blowhard will cry about it being off topic and then some mod will lock it...and I will die a little inside (joke)
but yea...dunno who to speak to about this but I feel since a lot of us on here do wish to speak about relatively off topic things it'd keep traffic in the Nexus specific forums more on topic and give us a place to just...chit chat a bit....
but yea...just a well thought out and respectable super duper awesome OMG how can he be so cool kinda suggestion I thought I'd try and get across...
feel free to opine.
There is already an off-topic section. If you want opinions on windows phone 7, may i suggest the Windows Phone 7 general section...here

so in other words you didn't read what I wrote?
I like this idea because it would be nice to have the off-topic discussion limited to other nexus one owners. Honestly, I don't think this will happen though.

Sigh...Then what's the point of the existing off-topic forum? This is a Nexus One forum, where people talk about Nexus One related stuff, not a Nexus One USER forum. If you want to talk about certain things like WP7 or HD2 etc. go to that specific forum.
Going with your logic, let's say one day every nexus one user wants to talk about the HD2, so there should be a HD2 sub-forum under the Nexus One forum? really?
I know what you're trying to say, and i would love to have a place where nexus one owners talk about random stuff too =) but it probably won't happen because of what i said above.
It's a fair comment I think, comparing/looking at other topics from a viewpoint of a N1 owner.
Wouldn't need a forum for every phone, just a 'oddbits' subforum.
Or a bit more relaxing of the rules in QnA forum perhaps?

Except I didn't suggest a WP7 forum. I suggested a general off topic forum...meaning anything from Aardvark's to Zion can be discussed there. We wouldn't need a separate sub-forum for each and every discussion.

Like I said I know what you mean, the mods will never approve of this tho.
This forum already has too many sub sections as it is.
I'm sorry, I fail to understand what you are asking for, how is your request any different from the already existent General Discussion Forum? Which contains an "Off-topic" sub-forum.
Care to clarify your request? Or explain how the already existent "Off-topic" forum does not meet your requirements?

Okay...I use Nexus...People here use Nexus
Sometimes I, as a Nexus user would like to know what others, who also use a Nexus, think of certain things that are not related to the Nexus One...
Creating a severely off topic thread in the N1 forum results in a close...so to alleviate this pressing concern of mine, I suggested an off topic random sub forum here so anyone can discuss anything thereby probably cleaning up the other segments since a lot of random OT stuff gets thrown haphazardly around in both General and Q&A.
I don't mean to complain, but rather voice my opinion on the fact that these forums for the gs3 are just too messy. I don't think it's efficient to have one forum for gs3 themes when they're not compatible across different carriers.
I'm just saying that we're all modding our phones here, which we all know can end disastrously if something is flashed that shouldn't be. And it seems like every other post in the T-mobile development forums are people with Sprint variants asking questions about compatibility etc etc. I'm here to read about my phone, and mods that are applicable to my device, not people having problems or questions about a phone variant I don't even own. Not to mention it's annoying to see a theme I like, only to find out there's no version for my T-mobile variant.
I can understand the General/Q&A/Accessories forums being unified, but themes? It's already been clearly stated that they don't work across each carrier so why are they all mushed together in one forum? I liked the layout before; 5 subsections for each carriers device, and I don't think this new breakdown is as efficient as it could be.
Well there's different forums for each carriers Android development at least. But I agree I don't like combining all carriers into one general forum

Agreed, this place is a mess. I can understand having all the US variants under one "main" section of the forums, but I would then have 4 subforums: AT&T, T-Mo, Sprint, & Verizon, and then each of those subforums have a General, Q&A, Development, & theme section. Leave the accessories subsection under the "main" US GS3 section.
Thank you for using this thread as a solution instead of adding much more "mess" to our section. Please take the time to enjoy our many other "mess" threads regarding your "opinion"
Here is an ideal one. :good:

I think that's kind of what OP is talking about. I saw that thread a while ago but haven't been able to find anything without spending 20 minutes scrolling. Or subscribing to every thread I read and wanted to get back to. Search has proven useless from the phone.

honestly, it looks crap, glad i got the m8, but what do you guys think?
Thread closed as this thread is a non m8 related thread and considered OT. Best thing to do is to use the Off-Topic forum until a device specific forum is created
Many thanks,

Please understand, this is not aimed at all moderators here... Just a couple that are taking the fun out it, or are just bored. You have the power, and most often are right! But I am seeing a few over using their powers here.
I see the Verizon note 4 forums dying very quickly. Someone starts a thread about getting a new Note 4 and it gets locked because it's irrelevant..? I see someone start a thread about sprint getting lollipop, showing its coming, and it gets locked because there is a dead lollipop thread from 2 months ago that already has mentioned. But the mod is wrong... The newest lollipop thread is about sprint getting it first in the states and obviously trying to get the Vzw Note forums going again. No harm in that at all.
I am seeing these type of actions a lot in this forum by mods.
Instead the mods allow threads that state goodbye Note 4 hello Nexus 6 and others that are negative and not useful to this forum.
Give it to me guys. I bet this thread gets locked and deleted immediately. I am sorry for this, I'm just upset at the over moderating...
Although sometimes I question, taking a step back and looking at the entire pictures does make some sense as to why they are doing this.
Watching many of the posts that have been coming through, end up getting garbled into nothing but arguing, off-topic or such. They have countlessly had to re-direct and delete topics/posts due to this. Doing so makes it hard to allow other posts that have similar topic meaning as another that they do not want to have to moderate yet again. Keeping the threads down to a more centralized, easier flow of topics is what they are more likely aiming for.
This is coming from a staff member of another forums, Good day to you.
Hi Leroy, My name is Josh.
I appreciate you voicing your concern publicly on the forums.
I closed your previous seemingly duplicate thread on this topic: http://forum.xda-developers.com/not...e-4-moderators-to-chill-t3057547#post59513029
To your post. I completely respect your opinion and I want to suggest that you get in touch with the moderators if you have concerns instead of opening a thread on it. My doors are always open. As i'm sure other mods are! Shoot me a pm! We're just here doing our best to help.
Gonna close the thread since it will probably turn into a flame war.
This night be in the wrong section, can a moderator please move this if so. Thanks in advance.
Curious as to why and how there isnt a section for development of the LG v35 (I have the v350awm)?
Its basically very similar to the base v30 just upgraded its actually really nice just wondering if anything is being worked on for this device or not
How do you put In a request for a forum section on xda as well?
I too am very interested in seeing a some attention brought to the V35. At least a basic root method.
People stop asking for thread for the V35.. The v30 and v40 users get their own and we never will. v40 had a section before its release even. The moderators here have had plenty of requests for the forum and they say there isnt enough interest.. Yet other devices have less discussion than the v35.. The moderators will never create a dedicated section. There will never be any mods or unlocking or rooting of this phone in this forum. Might as well chuck your phone in the trash.
