Welcome to XDA
You are right, there's lots of parts... Over 100 if I remember correctly.
Your first step is to see if you're here for a specific device, or if you are here to look at different devices and platforms. To look for your device, go to the top right of the screen, and in the "find your device" box, you want to type in the name of it.
If you're here to look at different devices, head to the homepage by clicking the XDA logo at the top left, and take a look at the devices on offer. Filter them using the options for tablets/android devices/windows mobile devices etc.
Take a look at the wiki if you are having trouble with your device (link in the menu strip at the top), and if you're after some of the news coming out the site, check out the portal (leftmost tab option on the menu) where you can see what everyone's up to.
Hope you find what you're after.

Welcome aboard!
I too was very intimidated when I first came upon XDA. I lurked for a very long time, and finally started reading the different threads about my device.
I started to become a little more familiar with what I was reading and too the plunge into rooting.
Make use of the search function in the different sections and try to post in the correct category and you'll be o.k. I think you be pleasantly surprised by how helpful everyone is on here.

Welcome to forums,
I always recommend: Read, Search, Respect and Enjoy!

Hi, I'm new too! It is very overwhelming, but lots of great info here!

Welcome too

The apps like slide 2 unlock and others which will add features can be found in the development and general sections of the forum, everything is easily found using the search function (both google and vbulletin versions).
There is tons of info and programs in this forum. You just need to take the time and read.
I downloaded them I just dont know how to load them to my 8525 so they work
As mrvanx said, all the cool stuff is in Development and Hacking:

Count your blessing that u have not been screamed and cursed on already. Not saying you deserve it, just the way it is, they have a point though this forum is more for people willing to put in the time to read. This forum is not for those who come here to set up and go its more for people looking for like...a hobby.
I know a little and will be happy to answer any quick question for you.
If this is not everyone's view or opinion or if I have offended someone I apologize in advance.

Just copy the file to your device or storage card, and click it from there! This is just basics of WM, but i remember feeling the same way when i first got a WM device!
Ok thanks.....I appreciate the answer instead of the smart ass remarks. Not everyone here just comes n asks questions without looking

3 gripes/bugs with new ATT Tilt 2 ROM, tweaks?, any other gripes??

Three things ive noticed since updating to the new Tilt 2 official Rom. Every time the device starts up, the "Backlight and Power" SETTINGS screen loads, as i said, every time the device starts up. Its pointless, undesired, annoying, and has done that from the start.
*(2) On the SMS tab of the new "HTC SENSE" (newer version of touchflo pretty much) whenever you get a new SMS and go over to the SMS tab, the newest message isnt ever at the top of the list (waiting for you right in front of your face) on the previous official ROM the newest SMS was always placed/focused right at top of the list for you to see instantly. Not the case with this new ROM, you have to scroll through your old messages, to the very top to read the new SMS, instead of it being right there.
*(3) Why the heck did they get rid of the task manager in the upper right corner next to the clock? Are you kidding? That was just too easy to terminate programs, and switch focus to them if youd like. They got rid of it!? Ridiculous.
Tweaks of any kind are welcome and appreciated, im sure by a few people. I am an advanced user so i would understand. If anyone else thinks of gripes with the new ROM please post here!

Try this. i have not tried it yet so i cant tell you if it works but people have said it works on tp2 w/ sense!
Thank you, i will definitely check that out. i appreciate the helpful input, instead of being told where and how to post like a lot of other people seem to like to do. I sincerely appreciate your time and efforts. Looks like a good suggestion by just checking out the screenshots.
There's already several threads going regarding this ROM in the ROM Development forum (where this belonged and has been moved to). Had you taken a moment to look you could have found them and posted your drivel in one of them instead of having yet another thread on the same subject scattered around the forums. Your Task Manager gripe is among the most well-known and easiest to fix as a cab is posted in those other threads for it. Forums have certain etiquette that members are expected to abide by and not searching and starting superfluous threads will make others call you out on it. I was not rude to you in any way.
not sure why you posted the same question.
in two different sub-forums.
but...
please refer here.
enjoy.

on-screen navigation buttons

Hello
I was searching few dais before on web and i found tutorial how to remove on-screen navigation buttons..
But now when i bought HTC One M8 i couldn't find that tutorial...
I want to remove that buttons because it is getting on my nerves when is not full screen on some apps, but on that tutorial it was that you slide across bottom part and buttons appears...
Can some one help my how find that tutorial or just how can i do that...??
PLEASE
thanks
the Dutch dilemma
It's a feature in kitkat itself. When you turn on immersive mode you will have full screen and you'll have to swipe up for the buttons to reappear.

This is not a place to be spoon fed, you need to read. It is all on here.
Tips
Search for Xposed and then install
Next
Search for GravityboxKK in Xposed and install
Then look for immersive mode

@grentuu. A bit harsh don't you think??! You could have linked him to exposed quicker than typing out what you did. I understand that folks need to search, but at the same time Senior members should also use their experience to educate our Junior members. Your rude response also does not bode well for teaching newer members how to act on these forums!

OK, I apologise if it came across as a little harsh. But the answers are all here if you look. Let me give you an example.
Last night I came across a problem with the Bootmanager module for Xposed. It's the first time I have used it and it isn't doing what the description says it should.
Now. my first action could have been to simply post in Q&A and hope someone was kind enough to fix it for me. There are probably about half a dozen threads I could have put my question in across XDA and other lesser forums
.Then I could have sat back, watched a bit of TV, poured a stiff one and waited for XDA to prompt me that someone had posted a reply. But that isn't what the spirit of XDA is about. It is about learning and searching the articles people have already posted. If you'll excuse the expression - 'The answers out there!' People need to look first ask questions later. By simply giving the answer to someone, what do you think will happen next time they have an issue? "I know, I'll ask those nice people at XDA"
If you notice I didn't tell him to go away - I did provide some pointers to 'direct' him. Up until that point in the thread, neither Xposed or Gravitybox had been mentioned. As I say 'Pointers'
It probably doesn't help that in the 'other world' I am a High School Teacher. I want people to reach out and learn for themselves, not expect to be, (here's that word again) spoonfed.
FYI I still haven't sorted my issue with bootmanager, but I still have some searching to do before I post a question.
Apologies to OP for off topic
Thanks all for help..
@grentuu i understand what are you trying to tell my...
This is my firs Android phone an allot of information, next time i will do a little more searching
Once again THANKS

Great!
Try installing Xposed Framework http://repo.xposed.info/module/de.robv.android.xposed.installer
Then from within install GravityboxKK - your answer lies here

If you can't even search Google to find your answers, I'm sorry to say I think you might fail at creating ROMs

Please do me a favor keep your opinions about me to your self you don't know the first thing about me In the past I was a programmer using Pascal and basic which I created programs to test PCB's So I do know how to program just not android. I did google but I probably didn't phrase it right so didn't find the exact info I was looking for. As far as I'm concerned you are being rude and judgemental so the way I see it is in your best interest to keep your opinions to your self.
Thanks for the info Semantics am looking at it now.
I wish you the best, hoping to see a creation by you in the near future ?
@Semantics @IXChicharitoXI way to have a supportive attitude. We need more of that around here :good:
Thanks for the support it will be awhile since I have to learn everything from the bottom up.

Best way to start it by cooking your own personalized stock ROM. Learning as you go is a great way to retain that knowledge. After you get the hang of that move on to aosp. A lot of the same principles will carry over. Don't let haters get you down, I saw a guy post in the hacking and development section asking how to do something. He got lit up with insults but went on to do some really cool stuff. I didn't see this in actual time I was just curious about his othere projects and ran into it. One tip I would say is do not depend on kitchens. They work for a quick shortcut to get your stock ROM started but that's about all they are good for (they don't even work with this phone). Good luck!

Yes I want to do it right but everywhere I look I see people doing work with the kitchen software which I have tried on one of the stock rooted deodexed roms I found here and your right very limited. I will keep looking and reading hopefully I will find some guides on the net which will show me how to do what I want to do. When I programmed before one of my friends helped me learn how to do it and I did learn from the bottom up with his help. So I know it is possible just need assistance getting there.

Why is there no information whatsoever about this watch?

Whenever i try to google problems about this watch or simple things such as "how to access recovery" there is literally no information whatsoever on it, things such as stock ROMs frequents problems and other such things are non existent about this watch, is there some logical reason as to why this is?
If you can write the guide with that info and put it up here, XDA is usually among the top search results for that type of info. I'm sure it would be appreciated, especially now that we have root and may hopefully get some development beyond that.

I've decided to take the time to create a post after viewing your reply, with some information that I have discovered on my own
have a look if you'd like
http://forum.xda-developers.com/zenwatch/general/guide-how-to-access-recovery-zenwatch-t3167623
Mostly due to this being the least popular wear device and wear being pretty unpopular as far as development goes. Also early work on a root exploit hit a dead end. Hopefully recent developments spurr things on.
