Lets make this forum better than the Note 3 forum was - T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General

Im from the old school xda, and I jump on every now and again.
I understand a lot of material is posted all the time, I don't know what it is like for moderators, but the Tmobile Note 3 forum was pretty jacked up. Yes there is a search button and yes people post and reply to old threads and bring them back to the front, but it was very annoying looking for roms or anything in that forum.
With that said I believe that the Note 4 will be around for a while and it would be nice if the forum was tidier! With that said it isn't just up to the moderator, we also have to play our part and not make stupid post like this one. :silly:
On another note just got my phone and I'm not too impressed. wish my Note 3 didn't break.

Give your new phone a chance. I wasn't too impressed either when I first got mine but the small changes they've made start to add up for a better overall experience.

Like stated above, give the phone a chance! I know the note 3 was a great phone and you were probably expecting some kapowee of blazing amazements. But I can assure you the small updates added, will make you feel you have a better note 3, the additions (and subtractions) make for a better overall note 3 experience.
But yes, I will have to agree. The S4 forum was a mess! Or became one I should say, the Note 3 forum..was simply jacked up and I see the note 4 will soon lead to that direction sadly (but I hope not). I'm seeing threads in places they shouldn't be but hey...lol we don't really have a lot of roms and mods right now so its not as annoying

XDA has changed period. Everyone is short tempered. A lot of guys kanging other guys stuff and it just sad. The phone is amazing. Trust me give it a shot and you will see.
BAD ASS NOTE 4

Dont get me wrong. ...I'm a samsung fan for life. I will love my note 4. Im just saying if i didnt have to, I wouldnt get the note 4. I have had every phone since the s2 though.
As far as diluting the forum....yeah this did that....but in the general section where it belonged. What i was really referring to though was the fact that roms were all over the place. Things were just all over the place.

I don't see what you mean, Roms are in development and have been, there are q&a threads for certain roms outside of the development forum..........I saw the same in the note 3 forum....Not sure what your referring to.......yeah sure people create threads that have already been started, but that didn't sound like what your complaint focused on....I'd like an example of a n3 rom not in the development section for T-Mobile??

Yes roms are where they belong. All im saying is let's keep it neat. Update the roms and kernel tabs at the bottom.

[THINK TANK]backlight notifications on bottom buttons from i9000... port possible!?!?

backlight buttons used for notifications on the i9000
i remember seeing this before in the theme and apps section and it got ruled out for the vibrant because of kernel issues i think it was... but they figured it out for the i9000, so i hope we can see this on our phone... soon.
btw... please dont flame and tell me this is in the wrong thread, because it will get more views here... and its in this section of the i9000 thread.
If you build it. they will come

well the source is there from the i9000 build, sounds like you need to get to work to fit your needs.
oh and it's in the development section in the i9000 section because there is DEVELOPMENT done, unless you plan on doing something this should go in the Q&A section.
flame on!
Who cares if its in the wrong section or not? If everyone posted crap like that then nothing would get done with our phone so take that **** elsewhere. Anyway back to the topic at hand, just reading over the first post it seems as tho the dev who made that is willing to port it to other Galaxy S phones. Anyone try contacting him yet?

The i9000 is a variation of the Galaxy S just as the Vibrant, Epic and so on are. Each may be similar but no two are alike, if they were you wouldn't be here requesting someone do something you are too lazy to figure out and learn yourself. And yes it's strange how THAT works.

Do your part by not being one of the members that purposely posts things in the wrong section. If the moderators did not feel the need for separate sections we would have one general forum.
And the reason the Q&A section doesn't get "much" attention is because people like you refuse to post there.. why would someone looks there if you continue to post here?
Change the thread title to include [Think Tank] then he can't complain anymore.

because people like you are on a high horse... you arent a mod.
you arent the xda police. id just like to bring it to an experienced persons attention who could do it faster than it would take me to learn. why? cause i work and have a life that doesnt completely revolve around xda.
so why dont you go flame someone elses thread little lady... as you can see, there are some ppl here that would like to accomplish the same thing id like to see. which is to get more functionality out of my phone, since it is obviously possible on other "similar" models.
to the mods. if im out of line.

Really? Isn't the whole point behind a Think Tank to get people in here and try and get development done? Hmm seems to fit this thread perfectly. So what exactly is the problem now?
Edit: That configurable backlight timeout thread has nothing to do with this topic, It's a separate topic that in no way involves using the backlights as notifications. The other thread isn't a Think Tank so go flame in that one if your that hell bent on being useless to getting this to work on our phones.

Traded My Vibrant - GOT A GREAT DEAL!

Ok so no flaming cuz im not saying this phone sucks at all.
I love it and had it running 1.6 along with so many 3d games i bought such as avatar, ganstar, and a few others. Also running launcher pro plus and android phone 7 look
Well i was offered $130 + and HD2 and i thought about but i just couldnt give in. Then i was offered a $100 + HD2 + Samsung gravity Touch. It might have been a good deal then but i just love the phone so much, it was like nooo..
So To end it, it was a 2009 Hp Desktop with Wireless keyboard and mouse + HD2 + SAmsung gravity Touch i think its a good deal anyway. and ill just be selling the hd2 and gravity and getting a vibrant again next week!
any comments?
sounds like you know a very stupid person.
Well done.
Now post again when you get your vibrant.

Congrats I mean if you can get a free computer out of the deal and buy another Vibrant why not right?
No, you haters, Definately not a moron or stupid. Computer is fairly Fast and has 2gb of ram as well as a 250GB HDD with the 19inch monitor. To get that plus a touch and an HD2 is more than a good Deal. For i am already getting rid of the Gravity touch tomorrow and selling it to a friend for $150 since he was looking for a phone.... I can easily sell the HD2 for about $300 since both phones are 9 out of 10 condition.
$300+$150=$450 - price to get a vibrant. $380-$450..... At the end i got a free pc after all...
BTW: When someone insults or flames others about something they share, i think others just follow along and hate too because they think it makes them cool or something! - Bet you anything to whoever said admin delete this thread it wont happen... Why?? it was posted in general where i can basically share samsung vibrant related chat.
EDIT --- I guess mods are cleaning up ...
Lol! Its funny how none of your posts In xda are of any help, yet come ***** about stuff. Move on. Picking up fights in forums. Oh geezzzz !
Thread cleaned and guess what...I really don't like having to come clean this stuff up. This is in fact the General Section for the Vibrant...which is defined as follows:
"Discussion about the T-Mobile Samsung Vibrant (general chat, tips & tricks, etc)"
If you don't care about this thread DONT POST USELESS COMMENTS and move along... if there is more flaming people will start getting free vacations....now let’s stay on topic and respect each other!

nahh you missed it there were a bunch of other posts, but hell yeah the OP got a good deal ...
But as the MOD said this forum is General for general chat, tips & tricks, etc, by that ANYTHING that has to do with a Vibrant fits here, including selling one.

Yep, agreed. Even if the OP had traded the Vibrant because he hated it, which he didn't, he said he loved the phone - but even if he traded because he hated what he received in return still stands as a good indicator of the perceived value of the phone by folks who don't own one and want one.
Just last week my cousin offered to trade me 2 iPhone 3G's for my Vibrant. Not a bad deal at all, in terms of overall value.
I dig the Vibrant now that it's rooted and tweaked with a custom ROM, but to be honest if I were able to get 3G speeds with an iPhone running on T-Mobile I most likely would have taken him up on it. As much as I am now liking this phone I'd also be plenty happy with an iPhone as well, not to mention I could have given the second one to my wife and negated the cost of her upcoming upgrade in December. She's a photographer and I'm a designer, we have macs here at home and the iPhone would play well with our setups.
It is what it is man, preferences are preferences. Just because someone wants an iPhone, or doesn't like a Vibrant, that's not some kind of insult. People have their preferences, yet a lot of folks really seem to take the fact some other folks aren;t digging their phone as some sort of personal jab.
OK, end off topic tirade directed at no one in particular.... - what I'm saying is that my cousins offer and the deal the OP just received tells me people want the Samsung GS phones and I have options should I ever want to trade.
Agree 100% with the watcher (not to mention the moderator as well!!) This certainly concerns the Vibrant and fits just fine in general.
Awesome !!!
Nice to know there are still suckers out there and those who will help them prove their mental midgetry
Ok...if you don't like the phone nobody blames you. But would you please explain to all of us why you are posting here. This topic is not going to help nobody in the forum... If everyone start sharing what a good deal they got out of their phones the whole forum will make nonsense. And it will be hard to find helpfull things..

Over time i have helped a great number of users, specially the mytouch slide by giving them my gmail to gtalk and help with rooting as it wasnt an easy process... and i decide to ONE time write in the general thread and share my story and all of sudden users with a POST count of Under 10 or 20 start Flaming.

Galaxy S Gingerbread rolling out in Europe

http://www.engadget.com/2011/04/16/galaxy-s-gingerbread-update-now-rolling-out-across-europe/
Looks like the i9000 is actually getting that 2.3 update. Maybe some other SGS models will start seeing it, I'd say everyone but us will get a glimpse.
Wrong section.
But yeah, at least the gs family looks like it will all get gingerbread.
Usually if its pertaining to Froyo/GB people don't mind seeing it in here. Hell, most people only view this subforum of the Fascinate and not general or any others. But you're right.
I feel like the Epic and Vibrant will get it in a few months, and then 25 years later Captivate, Mesmerize, Fascinate.

No, it isn't harming anyone, but it is cluttering this board. Nitsuj, is right, follow the rules, it's not that hard.

You're right, but nothing in the general section EVER gets viewed at or talked about. Everyone has their browser bookmarks set to development.
So it's all about page views then?

I have my bookmark set to the main page, so I can decide which board I want to look at, and I frequently visit the general board. By the way you're talking, you realize you shouldn't have posted here, but did it anyway. What makes you above the rules? It's called courtesy, and everyone should try it.

Nope, I'm just trying to spread the good news. Thought people would be interested. Decided I would put it in the "Wall Street Journal" as opposed to a "local smalltown newspaper".

I don't see how it'd be ironic if Samsung is first.
Google worked with them to release Gingerbread on some hardware that was only slightly different from the rest of their phones... They had an experience, resource, and time advantage over every other carrier... and yet they failed.
That's ironic. Samsung had every advantage, and yet couldn't even freaking get Gingerbread out on their flagship product before someone else. Seems like more motivation to me to avoid any future Samsung products.
And yeah, where to post things seems pretty obvious to me: Any discussion thread, where we're just talking about various random things go in General, questions go in Q&A, and actual releases (or things closely related to development... random questions about a ROM wouldn't warrant a new thread) go in Development. Posting things in the wrong section just to get more eyes seems fairly silly to me... if people aren't reading General, it's probably because they aren't interested in those things, probably only wanting actual ROMs/kernels/etc. Then again, making any comment on this topic seems to be a good way to get people to just flame you.

And now supposedly LG is working with Google for the Nexus 3 which will likely have the quadcore Tegra 3.

The rules are the rules...its not me being a ****...this is in no way shape or form development....and belongs in general
Its not up to you to decide that just because more people go here that "news" should also be in here as well
The rules are the same for everyone..otherwise development sections would be even more cluttered and difficult to navigate than they already are

[POLL/Q] How many Devs will move to the Note II?

Hey Folks!
Knowing that there actually is the "one and only - everything belongs here - Master - Uber - Thread" for Note II stuff, I woke up this morning suddendly being such a shamless guy who thinks, that this topic deserves an own thread!
As it became very important for my purchasing habit to know if there will be a developing community (and I think that I´m not alone with this strange thoughts), I would like to ask the devs, cooks, themers etc. if they see any (great) future for the Note II and if they are planning to switch or at least to "touch" the Note II in near future.
If this poll should become reliable, I would like to ask everyone who is NOT working on ROMs or Apps to NOT touch the poll :highfive:
Hehe, okay this is very encouraging :cyclops:
gonna report the thread as its well known that theres one already to post everything about note 2... why wouldnt they develop for note 2? most devs does have and support several devices at once
and therese already a note 2 dedicated forum
Tapatalking on my N7000

I don´t know if you have read the content of this thread, but I´m pretty sure that hardly any dev will look into the general thread...and furthermore: it is not possible to start a poll when I´m not the OP of a thread. And it would become hard to get an insight about the number of devs interested in the Note II when this question is asked in a all-you-can-think-of-thread.
I have seen a couple threads closed because note2 general thread that I did not agree with. Putting them in a general thread gets them burried and then no one sees them. Rubber stamping note2 threads is not a good solution. Unfortunately I think this thread is well suited for the Note2 General thread.

+1 , spot on nianfur
Would be nice to know, which devs will be continuing support, perhaps they could simply tell us in their rom, thread , but then again look how old the s2 is and the dev is still full on. That's what's so great about xda, even the old hd2, HTC diamond and desire hd have lots of development, often lots of the new updates in the later models can be ported across, ie we have some s3 elements likewise the same will happen with the note 2.
Note I ...

He's trying to muster more than 10 posts, so he can ask for ETAs and futures™ in the Dev forum. :fingers-crossed:

*Sprint* Galaxy Note Edge our own forum request

Why this hasnt been done i dont know why... but i know from my standpoint I've been reluctant to root because ive had to dig and dig through other peoples posts for their phones (not sprint ) to find information . What few sprint information there is seems to be hidden in pages of posts for other phones.. Ive seen sprint users get snubbed when they ask questions ( rightfully so I feel the same way when other people are asking about K phones in the few sprints threads we have) since the tmobile dev is really taking off i think we are way past due for our own section ..to much different information out there for the different models now... lets but our requests here for a new section

Couldn't agree with the OP more. Not sure why a simple task has to become such a production.
Exactly.... this is why my phone is yet to be rooted

I read it...i dont understand the point of your reply...As stated in the link you supplied..just as you did . i simply suplied the link so that we can get the ball rolling. I dont understand why it has to be such a process.. having to comb over paragraphs to find links or information pertaining to the Sprint edge really sucks. Im glad others feel the same way i do! Devs are posting links...yet i cant find the right one amongst 10 others... then when i see a BIG sprint sign im thinking great here we go!!
..but alas its only for changing the tmobile 4g to Sprints lte icon?! Wtf! Come on for simplicitys sake....why is this even a issue??

I agree. I have the Tmo Edge and we are all stuffed into one thread to discuss things.
I understand that there aren't a whole lot of Edge users in general no matter which carrier you are with.
I think we are all lumped together for that reason. It isn't difficult to open forums for individual carriers. It has to be something else. Laziness.

Its called a 14 day return policy- i dont have time to sit in front of my computer all day.. 5 13 hour days overnight kind of take its toll... and i find it hard to get out of the house even on my day off. I have 5 days to figure out what i wanna do... so your smart ass reply is un warranted. This isnt my first rodeo..and i understand these things take time but I spent 400 plus dollars for a device that lags like holy hell.... i cant even get support from the forums...the mods seem to be nonexistent...not even a reply to mine and others request to split our forums so that there would be one centralized location for Sprint owners to go to for their information I'm not going to continue to dig around other peoples post to find stuff pertinent to my phone....that seems to be where this is going... its called frustration dude....
well I've messaged the moderators of the forum let's see where this takes us as far as getting our own section now
I'm sure with your charming disposition they will be quite receptive to your ideas.
Thread closed, if you want to ask for a forum you should do so in this thread.
