I am just wondering why we haven't separated forums between gsm and cdma for the desire. It is a little confusing to find roms and help for cdma when it's all mixed together with gsm. Or is it just me, something i'm missing?
That's why we have this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=809328.
I think the numbers are just to low of people with cmda.

Thanks i did see this but its still not separated under desire's main forums and when i look for android development under desire it's still combined gsm and cdma. You are probably right though, the cdma numbers are probably too low. I guess i'm just an organizational freak and it just bothers me thats all.
I am a fellow cdma owner as well and also wish we had our own category lol

You could browse around over at www.teamuscellular.com. Even though this is mostly geared towards US Cellular customers, their phones are CDMA and most of the threads under the Android forums are people with the Desire (there are a few with Mesmerize too, but I find that most conversation is in regards to the HTC Desire CDMA).

I'll give it a try. xda rocks though.

Thinking that the Development forum should be split into two
One for CDMA/LTE
One for GSM
Seems like that would solve the confusion and prevent potential bricks.

I have to agree, it's quite painful to browse to find the correct version of things for the phone you have.

I thought maybe I was a noob and didn't understand why they weren't splitting the forums. It seems like some GSM mods/roms/kernels work on the LTE, so you really have to go through trial and error to see what works?
Splitting would be far the easiest, though, unless developers have to maintain double the amount of threads which could be a pain.

If it's going to be split, it needs to happen sooner rather than later, just because of people posting threads that accommodate both as time goes on.

Please god yes.
Coming from the Nexus S forums...their's is split between the 4G and the GSM version and that makes it extremely helpful...please mod-overloards...SPLIT THIS FORUM LIKE MOSES SPLIT THE SEA
i agree too but the only problem is that a few things work for both cdma and gsm.
I agree

I use to have the incredible and incredible 2 and it was frequent to have roms made from the evo and other htc devices... doesn't mean I go to the evo forum for the rom. Even though you are right, the positives far out weigh the negatives here none the less.
Please do!

I'd have to agree. And as for things that work on both, the author can post in both sections. That way they can field questions separately between the two, instead of having people with different devices posting in the same thread. Surprised this hasn't been done already.
Rabble rabble rabble.
Agreed! It could definitely clear up some confusion, even though I assume most members here are pretty smart.
I don't agree. What to do with general development threads, radio independent mods, etc?
Why not just "tag" the threads with [GSM] and [LTE] (like some devs already do).

? I don't get your point. There are no general development threads. Every mod is made for a specific model, they're not both compatible.
Radios are not cross-compatible. LTE radios only work with LTE. GSM .. same thing.
[GSM] and [LTE] are too disorganized. With two forums it makes things more organized and eliminates the chance of flashing something for the LTE when you have GSM (and vice versa).
Also, this is the wrong forum to be posting this. There are two other threads about this, we don't need another one.

Why are we not getting any admin response to what majority of the community wants? What are the pros on cons? I'm no pro but maybe the admins know why there isn't one yet..
This is message to a mod asking for two Dev forums. One for GSM and one for CDMA. Do you want or not want this to happen? Give me your opinions...

Hello. I need to ask you of a favor
I believe you are the moderater of the HTC Wildfire S forums. Could I ask you to split the development forums into two sections like the nexus s' - GSM and cdma. this would help rom builders a lot.

Since most of the posts here relate to GSM Nexus, is there a forum for us CDMA owners? ive been searching for it and cant find one.

Huh? I wouldn't say a majority are related to the GSM Nexus...
Although some may think it'd help, it'd probably do more harm than good considering a LOT of the topics overlap between the 2, and model-specific threads are indicated in the title or 1st post. It keeps us from getting duplicate posts that would certainly crop up in separate General sections, and it gets more eyes on threads.
The Dev sections are separate, that's the only thing that matters.

Yep, this forum is for CDMA and GSM Nexii alike.
If you post a thread though, just be sure to clarify which Nexus you're referring to.
The only difference between the CDMA n GSM are
Different radios (CDMA has a LTE Radio), size, and one is exclusive to only one carrier (till sprint releases theirs )
Other than that its the same phone n 90% if the issues will be mutual

+1. Alternatively give all the relevant details in your signature so that you don't have to repeat the stuff in each post.
There is a dedicated Development forum but, here, we can all be brothers.
We should fork the development thread for gsm and cdma devices to keep ppl from getting mixed up

I agree for sure. Even though the Cdma forum would be very small haha but I hit the like button anyway.

It would have avoided a lot of confusion, but modpunk is now attempting to merge cdma code in his cm9 rom. In what forum would hybrid development be discussed?
I think I read somewhere though if he merges we will never get official support i dnt remember where but yea
Sent from my HTC-PG762 using XDA
Marvel and marvelc cannot coexist; as, they are two [slightly] different boards. As one must specify a board in aosp, this will not work. Now, if someone makes an Aroma [temporarily defunct] installation that switches out neccesary items, it might work as a hybrid, but typically speaking, a ROM is either gsm or cdma. In aosp, you'd also need to write your no sim line to your tree if your cdma. This would screw up gsm. Etc, etc...
This was called for awhile back, but in retrospect, I'm a little glad it didn't happen...
Wildfire S temporarily got sent to the legacy boards for low traffic; if split, both gsm and cdma could land in legacy yet again.
Always positive and negative ways to look at it I suppose.
That all said, [and even though this is about the development section], we probably should curtail discussion threads to General unless they contain a lil development... Mods been cracking down of late

I think it's funny there is a T-Mobile thread that says development when all the development gets posted on the HTC one m8 thread. Why is this? It's very confusing at times

I agree that there.shouldn't be a t-mobile or att thread due to cross GSM compatibility. I think though it's not entirely useless as t-mobile does have WiFi calling

As does nearly every international Sense ROM. AT&T actually has other devs and power users so their forum belongs...ours is useless. Nothing but teenagers and noobs here. The rest use the international forum.
