Now that I'm on this look-and-feel trip...
Not sure why I never did before: I've just turned on phpBB's 'Avatar' feature. This means everyone can now upload a small image to sit below their name beside every post. It doesn't have to be a photo, it can be anything you like. Maximum is 80x80 pixels and 10kB.
I haven't turned on the 'gallery' for people to pick from ready-made images. But if someone has a really nice collection of crazy images that would somehow apply to this community, I might.
I'll upload as soon as I think or something suitable...
Not sure, if it´s a good idea to be able to use Avatars.
They will bring up the amount of traffic of the website, and if you want to read this forum online with the xda, you have to turn off pictures or have to download much more...

Hi all
A few of us Moderators have been getting PM's that in my case have not been dealt with due to the fact I am not always on the board.
All of us do this for free and in our spare time, and over time we move on, get new toys, or even go back to a real life without a keyboard under our fingers.
Please try to understand that some of us are Bias (I admit to it I have a BA and am not intrested in many of the other sections).
Thus I for one do not read all posts and all sections, I feel this is true for others, like I said I feel this.
We all however try to check the trash and keep the news clean.
For this reason we need a form of communication that is not based on a person but directed to a group and in this case its the Moderators and Admins.
It is with that motivation in mind that I have opened this thread and made it sticky in the hope that you are able to post issues that you think that at least one of us should deal with.
Please note that this board does not tolerate cracks, serials, pirated versions or the posting of software that should have been aquired by legal means and we will remove (delete) them when found. Please help us keep this site clean by posting links of that sort in this tread as well as telling us if you have found anything on the ftp site.
Please use this thread, use and edit the wiki and remember this board would not be as great as it is without YOU.
Thanks for your support.
MDAIIIUser
Thanks MDAIIIUser.
And remember, mods aren't Gods, despite us all being flaxen hair'd Adoni.
We can't create new Forums, change the Welcome page or Index page, or supply you with new flags or avatars. But ask anyway, it helps us put pressure on the Admis, who are the true Smooth Operators of this board.

Thanks guys!
Hi Guys,
Thanks for postings this.
We (admins) are behind you (though we also aren't gods )

redirection from www.xda-developers.com still pointed to:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/front_page.php
link above is not valid anymore
I guess, it should be pointed to:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/index.php
nothing major, just easier that way
Think that is correct that is the main page, the forum is a sub element which you can get to from the main page. If you just want the forum then bookmark it.
Link above worked for me
[req] mobile forum theme
Let me first thank you for moving to a much better forum application than phpBB.
I hope one day we can have access to a mobile friendly theme from owr phone. If implemented, I would also like to request that the theme option be stored in cookies rather in the database so we wouldn't have to enter User CP and change the theme every time we log in from our mobile or desktop.
thanks!
Charmer Wiki locked, someone have a check on that please. Thanks
checked it,
opened, edit, saved and removed edit fine
Try on another different user account? Look at my screen shot. The Page-Info gives me the LOCKED status. And, I only see the View-Source not the normal Edit button. Something wrong?
Is it possible to regain the option: view your posts? I liked it but can't find it now anymore.
go User CP -> Find all your posts.
I didn't notice, thanks!

Just wondering, with the recent spamfest that seems to be taking place is there any pattern developing in the IPs used that would allow an IP ban to be placed? or are they using anon proxies? I know from my own experience as an admin on another forum they can be a pain, but they really seem to be targetting this place.... A friend of mine is a developer for vb and if there is anything that could be of use I can ask him if he would be able to create a plugin to help you block it.
In many ways this is one of the best sites I have seen (apart from the one I am an admin on of course, we all take pride in the sites we run heh) and I would like to assist in any way to stop any of the users being taken in by spammers like that. (yes, I know most of the users here are smart enough not to fall for it lol) Certainly it's one of the most informative on the HTC devices.
I don't see Cingular in the drop-down list for profiles.... found this a bit odd....

Could some admin update the logo for 'Portugal - TMN' mobile operator?

Hi,

Not relly... :-(
Still the old logo.
Do you see it on the left, at my profile!?
looks good from my view
I see the new logo - after refreshing my browser cache (CTRL-F5).
Good idea though. Could you update MTN - South Africa pls? Logo attached.
Thx in advance.
Thanks its OK indeed!

Hi Raithlin,
I tried to update the logo but since it's a square the forum won't let me change it (size is incorrect) I can scale it down to an acceptable size but then it is no longer readable.
Since we are changing to new forum software in wich this is possible I'd like to wait with updating untill we migrate to the new software (anytime soon).

Anyone try out Deepfish, Microsofts new web browser for PDAs?
http://labs.live.com/Deepfish/default.aspx
Maybe someone can work this into a new cooked ROM?
The cab file is located here:
http://www.qwertybar.com/misc/deepfish/
But I've heard it needs a serial number to be activated.
Looks promising...
Wow Looks very cool.
Its amazing that after so many years of developing mobile device software it took Apple to give MS a wake up in the Web Browser department.
Yeah, I've checked that out before and signed up to beta test it.
Still waiting...
... but thanks for the link! Alas, it requires an activation code.
hello, can anyone post the activation-key? - if someone has it...

But its a Beta-Preview-Version. IT'S ONLY IN THE NAME OF SCIENCE!!! WE JUST WANT TO HELP MICROSOFT.
Downloading and playing with it.
Holy crap this thing is fast....google.ca came instantly. It seems like MSN is caching some of the data through a server or compressing but something.
It is very beta. It shows the entire page in one shot. I am just checking Howard Forums and going down on the page is like navigating through Gmaps for PPC.
I am still trying to figure out how to zoom....
Not bad but still in its infancy. Whoa, wait this thing zooms in like crazy! Amazing. Not bad for pre-beta.
It is a bit like the S60 3rd browser!
So is any one gonna post the activation code ?
cheers

And what are leaked OS? I don't came here for any serials oder cracked software. But i came here for Aku3, WM6 and so on and in my interpretation of the word "warez" OS are very close to this...
Code
I have been trying to get an activation code sent to me all morning..
I can understand why is it so difficult for people who already have a code for this pre-Beta application to post it out so more people can try it...
Looks very nice
But i also have problems with zooming, any1 knows howto?
I installed it with someone's activation code, but got the error message after the deepfish validating something:
Internal: Unable to get timely response from the server. This is generally caused by poor reception with your data provider. Please try again.
I also tried the Diagnosis function, it said HTTP request failed (12038)
I tried both Wi-Fi and 3.5G , the results are the same
Anyone can help?

Dont follow the directions you find with google (using the promo code DFPRESS) just sign up for MS beta's with your live account and then put those same details into the deepfish download section. I got a code first time and second time(2 pda's). No i wont give one to you. I dont know what all the fuss is anyway. Its not that good.

Yeah, I just signed up again today and got an activation code about an hour ago. So, I'm sure they're giving them out pretty liberally. But I'm with you, I'm not a huge fan of it (so far). It is somewhat difficult and clumsy to use. But hey, it is in it's earliest beta stages, so I'm sure it'll better later on.
dont waste your time with deepfish ...
"As a technology preview, Deepfish is early in its development cycle (still a few releases from beta quality). As a result some features are not implemented or are only partially implemented. Currently, the technology preview does not support ActiveX controls, AJAX, cookies, Javascript, and HTTP POST."
Its crap if u dont have all those "standard" features that a browser should have...
No java? no activeX? no cookies? Then it obviously is worthless
i just tried it. i get more stuffs done using PIE or opera mobile!

Sadly that promo hasn't worked for me on any of the 5 accounts I registered for most of which were done yesterday afternoon when that was posted.
Thanks though for the assist and I'll have to sit tight for a bit until they release further codes to test with.
