There was no need to report this. How exactly is this the wrong section for what @invinciblecc asked? It's actually the perfect place to ask a question like this. It is the Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting section after all, and asking a question on how to do something is exactly what was done here. Now if it had been posted in the development section, that would've been the wrong place because it's not explaining how to add zram and swap.

OP should try the XDA forums hardware hacking etc as well as this section .
Devs tend not to read Q&A .

Better to ask a dev that have a low RAM device.
zram have no benefits for a 3GB ram device. On the contrary, it increases cpu usage and lowers battery life.
This is why none of the devs here added support of zram to an hlte kernel.

Oh okay, but there's no way of knowing that it's already been moved Haha. It looks like this is where the original post was made. The mod who moved it probably should've stated that it's been relocated. Oh well... *shrug* Lol

What are you talking about if I don't want to believe? I never said I didn't. I do believe you, but like I said, if you just look at the original post you can't tell that it's been moved from another section. It's all good bro. Haha

WHY?!?!

Total Rotation... (hack/app request)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=712259
Why on earth was my above thread moved and closed...
Explain please moderators...
I'm not a mod, but I would guess that it was moved because there was no development going on. Why was it closed? I dunno... maybe the mode are getting sick of moderating this forum.

well if you ask me its defo more dev related then anything else, cos only dev's would know how to do it, But yeah moving it can understand i guess, But closing it without any type of message is just plain ridiculous.

they moved a lot of stuff so i might have been an accident. try pm'ing a mod.
I'm not sure how long you've been on xda for, but in my experience it is common for requests (even development requests) to be moved to general. They usually want only actual development in the development subforum out of consideration for developers and users alike. it can be a bit trying to wade through all the ot discussion.

thanks, its not the moving i mind, its the closing thread, so any mod who see's this can you please explain why?

Asking a question about a feature for possible development is not development, its a general question and should go in the General/Q&A section. Pretty much everything should go under General, unless you have some source or compiled ROM or Kernel to contribute.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=614062
I'm not a Mod obviously but spending a lot of time in the N1 Dev section you get a sense of what is and is not acceptable and how well it is tolerated.
Edit: obviously if you're posting an app apk or talking about cases there are sections for Apps, Themes and Accessories also.

I think we all understand why it was moved but I don't see any reason as to why it was closed, there are a lot of locked or closed threads that don't seem like they should be, it could be that there is a thread closing happy Mod, or they are getting locked or closed by mistake.

Exactly, moving the thread is fine, but why close it?
come on mods, if you can close a thread without any reason, at least explain why please...
Thanks

Sup B!!!!
Nice to see you over here to
And yes we seriously do, I would also LOVE it if anyone could do any of these following things to...
1) Camera stabilization that actually works
2) 2 stage camera button using the track pad (push/release)
3) App that allows 360 rotation on all apps that allow rotation.
4) Decent Panoramic camera app (like the Omnia on-screen Stitching)
5) Decent burst mode that works well and can choose how many shots it takes and time in between shots.
With those and with the rotation hack/app, i would be such a happy camper...
Come on dev's anyone know if if this is possible, if it is i'm willing to donate for sure
So my original post was shut in couple of hours, but this post has been here for nearly a day and a Mod hasn't given any type of excuse or answer to why the post was closed?
Is it me or is that just rude and a bad way to run a forums?
I really don't want to start any trouble, but I would love to know why my post was closed, So I don't make the same mistake in the future, plus its just common courtesy.

WesGarner isn't our forum mod. He's the dev #TeamDouche assigned to porting CM6 to the Vibrant.

That is an awesome thing. Sorry I didn't see what he was referring to since the post was 74 replies down. Glad to see we've got a supermod though, maybe we can keep this place cleaner than the old Dream forum.

If anyone else had posted this in the dev forum, ragin would have JUMPED on the original poster and flamed him right out the door.

Enjoy!
you may want to tell the mod to move this to general before you get flamed. plus there is already two threads about this there.
Then delete! Figured it would be more appropriate here.

so you don't think there should only be one thread about this to cut down on the confusion and crazy multiple questions asking the same thing on each different thread.

AlpharevX and unrevoked twitter

Has anyone noticed the new twitter out about an hour ago from both of them saying something revolutionary will be announced later today? The site it links to is revolutionary.io. Just wanted to see if anyone noticed.
See: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=620
sorry if i put it in the wrong place. I didnt see it in general and figured it was a development issue.

From the first sticky on this forum:
"So remember... before you start a thread in development, ask yourself what you are developing. If you can't answer, then stop, step away from the post button, and think about where you are posting. Would it be better in General or Q&A, or is some more time with your best friend, search, required?"
my bad. Was not thinking. Can a mod maybe move this to general?

It's all good, and the information was nice to know. You can PM one of our forum mods and ask them to move it, but I have already done such.
Our mods are toastcfh, rolfd, and josefcrist.
