Sprint's Framily with corporate discount - Networking

Admins - i have looked at the forum rules and didnt see a clear indication that social networking is prohibited (since i am not technically advertising or selling anything). Please let me know if i am violating the rules and i will gladly delete the thread. Just trying to get folks together for mutual benefit.
Folks,
If anyone is planning on witching or have recently switched to Sprint (in the last 14 days), feel free to join my Framily. I have corporate discount on the account that will be applied to all data charges for all lines. Helping each other out is what community is all about!
Framily ID: K01909701nu
Thanks

It is usually best to hit the report button, we will find it faster. I also have some bad news. Framily referrals are not allowed on xda. One of the points of Framily is for you to use social networking to advertise for Sprint and that would be against the rules. The only referrals that are allowed are for cloud based storage and those have to go into the specific thread for them in OT.
Sorry!

Official Samsung NOTE SALES/TRADE/Request Thread.

I thought of creating this thread for the convenience of our Members to sell or trade their GNote.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Please state the exact condition of your Note and from where you are selling and also to which countries you are willing to send. E.g EU/USA/Wordwide etc.
If you are requesting for a Note please specify your location(Country) and the amount you are willing to pay for the GNote.
ATTENTION: Only "valid" members with a considerable amount of posts. We will check your post's to see if a member is reliable.
Happy selling/trading.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
P.S: Also I'm looking for a GNote preferably from Germany. New or used. I'm willing to pay 507euros for it including shipping which is around 10-15euros to my country.
Note that according to XDA rules, selling or trading is only permitted in the Marketplace forum.
I know it does happen for an individual item from time to time, but I'd imagine a thread like this would get mod attention.
Regards,
Dave

Thank you foxmeister. I will request from a Moderator to delete this thread.
Also please if a Moderator is available delete this thread and accept my sincere apologies.

Why was the N9002 thread deleted?

I was trying to find the thread and for some reason, it might bave been deleted. What gives? I figure it might be because of that stupid rom that is asking for profit?
There was plenty of good information in that thread especially for us users of the dual sim note3. I wish it could be restored, and just the crap paid rom deleted...
Might have been archived, use the thread in the general section of XDA to ask a staff member.

I have got this message from mod:
Discussing for pay roms is not allowed, especially when it involves malware. Thread has been removed.
I have already ask him why because I do not understand. I have written instal guide to SVA 3.5 (cause I have it) but it was also for 2.0 which is free. If it is against rules, then OK, he can delete 2 or 3 posts and say, stop talk about it. And not to delete complete thread with usefull infos.
And if it has malware, then he should tell us more about it.
Censorship is very bad thing!
Is it no fair deleted this thread... it was one of the most usefull ones.
Please delete posts about paid ROM and restore this thread.
I was also disappointed not finding the 40+ page thread about the N9002 today. I was specifically looking for the fix to the following:
Others.xml fix for caller ID issue (I have since found it elsewhere, and the "-1" parameter value worked for me).
Fix for Google Account randomly signing out (it happened to me first two times I rebooted since loading a new ROM, but hasn't reoccured the rest of today).
Fix the "process com.google.process.gapps has stopped..." error (I've cleared app cache for some google apps, so now under observation).
The N9002 thread was very useful, so I am also hoping that only the SVA related posts should be deleted.
I just upgraded my N9002 to the latest N9002ZNUDMK1 today, loaded CWM recovery, and then a 3rd party ROM. I'm loving the N9002 more and more now.

I did not know about that rom having malwares. Never really liked that SVA. Good thing i stayed away from it. However, its still unfair to delete the whole thread because of it.
Reading through and cleaning a +400 post long thread every few weeks isn't feasible. If you see people discussing something that obviously goes against multiple forum rules then please report them.
By being complacent you're doing nothing but driving off good devs and hurting everyone else who has the device.

Ok, thanks for clarifying. So, can we create a new n9002 thread now or can we just ask this thread renamed to the n9002 thread? I still would want to see people getting directed to the right place when they search n9002 xda forums in google...
N9002 with the SVA ROM 3.1
Thanks for open a new thread :good::good:
I use the N9002 and have it rootet and a Custom Multilanguage Rom
Now speak my N9002 German and Work like a Charm.
I thought we were told to keep away from talking about paid roms?

sorry, no offence, but you are lying.
You write that the +400 posts long thread is full of posts against rules but at the same time you write that you can not read it and clean it, so how do you know?
We are talking about one post where somebody (not me) has posted direct link to that paid ROM.
Or is SVA forbidden here completely? Also the free ROM?
I have sent you PM, I would be glad if you post the answer here. I dont know if i am alowed to do it myself when you have threatened me with this:
Any further discussions about it, whether in the open or over private message, will be considered spamming and may lead to restrictions on your ability to access the forums.
Maybe I get banned anyway, but for nothin, just for saying politely my opinion and asking questions.
I do not intend to spam, but I hate censorship. And all what you did was without explanation, so it is censorship.
i will not post here any until I get answers from mods here. It seems that its forbidden here at all?!
On the other hand i dont understand you.

The thread is 412 posts longs and it tells you the post number at the top of the posts. Just because the thread is not visible does not mean it is completely gone.

Calling someone a liar isn't very "polite". If your goal is to get banned just say so, there's no need for the passive aggressiveness.
As was explained in the private message to you, do not discuss it here. Talking about for-pay ROMs in any way shape or form is not allowed. If you want to advertise them for you can do it from your own website.
Ok, now thats that done. I suggest that this thread be closed and I'll just create a new n9002 thread.
...
Shame. I am one of the many owners of N9002 that had benefited from information in that thread. There were many useful posts in that thread that didn't have anything to do with paid ROM's at all. There were techniques to root, debloat, and put back Google stuff on N9002. Only because there were some guys posted about a paid ROM the entire thread was deleted?
Thread closed on op's request. If there are any further questions please feel free to PM me and I will be happy to answer them.

Elephone's customer support is worse than thought

Elephone's customer support is low-quality. Everybody already knew. But it's worse than that!
I've posted some questions and issues in a thread addressed to one of the moderators on the Elephone forum, but without given any answers this is the system message I received on my account on that forum:
您已被 chan1o 禁止发言,期限:90天(0:代表永久禁言),禁言理由:Continuously posting same topic links in every post and irritating so much.
Here's what really happened: When moderator chan1o challenged me as if there are no issues or problems with P9000, I compiled a list of links for him with unsolved questions and issues from the forum. Without getting back with explanations, moderator chan1o went on posting advertising threads on the forum. So I posted him a reminder with a link to my post in the hope to draw his attention and to get him back to do, what Elephone customers expect him to do.
In total I have send one post on one of his threads, and two links to that post in other threads.
We all knew that Elephone customer support is bad and that the company cares more about earning money from unknowing customers, than to show any appreciation for their buyers. Blocking me from the forum because he didn't liked my post is the last thing I'd expect a moderator to do.
http://bbs.elephone.hk/?90419
I have send the following to the Elephone forum Admin on [email protected] and on the Elephone forum http://bbs.elephone.hk/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=13315&fromuid=92084
Edit 29/3: above linked got removed. here it is now: http://bbs.elephone.hk/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=13319&fromuid=90419
I have a formal complaint against moderator chan1o.
Moderator chan1o is only posting advertisement threads and he does not give customer support. When users write about issues or problems with their Elephone product, he only replies with meaningless comments.
When moderator chan1o challenged me as if there are no issues or problems with P9000, I compiled a list of links for him with unsolved questions and issues collected from the forum. Without getting back with explanations, moderator chan1o went on posting advertising threads on the forum. So I posted him a reminder with a link to my post in the hope to draw his attention for support.
In total I have send one post on one of his threads, and two links to that post in other threads.
In my opinion moderator chan1o misapplies the forum rules by banning my account farsiray. http://bbs.elephone.hk/?90419
My opinion with reference to the forum rules: http://bbs.elephone.hk/thread-10138-1-1.html
Rule 5.5.6 I have left only 2 repeated links to only 1 post. That cannot be interpreted as flooding the forum.
Rule 6.2 Moderator chan1o did not give three warnings.
Conclusion: chan1o did not have the right to move my account to the Read Only group.
Dear Administrator, Please deal with this matter.
I'm looking forward that the ban on my account will be removed so I can carry on having communication with other P9000 users on the Forum where we help each other.
Thank you.
also have a look at this post on the Elephone forum, where a Moderator assaulted a forum member
http://bbs.elephone.hk/forum.php?mod=redirect&goto=findpost&ptid=12946&pid=129608&fromuid=90419
I think we all know any Chinese brand manufacturer are generally always pretty bad at after care support. In-fact when ever I buy a handset from a Chinese based manufacturer, i take on board if anything goes wrong I know its usually a pointless exercise taking it up with the Chinese company concerned and usually take the matter up with the retailer I bought it from (assuming its within a sensible period that is)
Without a shadow of a doubt Elephone are extremely bad when it comes to service. It is shockingly abysmal.
Anyone who doubts this should really visit their "support forum" and I can assure you, it wont take you long to realize what Elephone is really all about. They dont listen to their customers, they dont help their customers and whats worse they have a forum admin that has even verbally abused a customer via PM (assuming ofcourse, the customer who posted this was indeed speaking the truth)
One thing they seem to be really good though is marketing & selling their devices, particularly on their "support forum" where mods/admins are always eager & enthusiastic to appear to post the latest/greatest Elephone device/accessory. Its just a pity they dont show the same eagerness to post anything when someone needs support or help.
Anyway good to hear they lifted the ban on your account and as I repeat what I posted on Elephone forum - dont buy their products, advise others to do the same and move on ;0)

Official forum help.

Ok, so something weird happened today. For some reason, I've been banned from the official forums for "spam". The notice says to contact a forum admin, but there isn't any way to do so. I have never posted any spam so I'm not sure why this happened. If an admin from the official forum sees this or if someone would please contact an admin, I would like to discuss and appeal this. Thank you.

I'm not banned from XDA. I'm banned from the Official Phoenix OS Forum. But, their forum is a bit lower quality than XDA. There's always spam bots posting things about medications, women, travel trips, stuff in Russian, etc. As I said above, I wouldn't ask here at all, but even though the message says to contact their forum admin, they have no such way to do so.

you should have said so ... other forum registrations / bans / issues aren`t our area of interest though you may be able to find someone to guide or advice you
Thread moved to this q&a section now , this doesn`t belong to Miscellaneous Android Development
Thanks for understanding
Dan
If you read the OP, I did say so. I started this topic in the correct forum. This is the only other place that some of the users/mods of Phoenix OS use besides the official forums. Therefore, it's the only place such an issue would be seen and sent to the correct people. Please, move this topic back to where it was.

This threads turns out to a "who's right and who's wrong" thread and becomes useless
Again, you did not mention on your first post which forum you seemed to be banned, you said "official forum" and we thought you were talking about xda official forum not that external website where, read what I've said above
And second, Miscellaneous Android development is NOT the correct place here on XDA to post questions /issues whatever because you think it is more visible , this is the place
I might also remove the link from your post as the xda rules does not allow advertising or encouraging the users to participate or whatever on external websites for mobile phones
If this discussion derails more than has been already happening , can be easily closed as irrelevant for the XDA's forum topics
You may use the pm function for further concerns
Thank you
