Sony Ericsson Xperia X1 Subforums

Hi,
Don't know if this was here before, but I didn't find anything with the search function.
Since the Xperia hit shelves some days ago and is becoming more popular each day, I wanted to request a split of the subforum. Actually I'm not the only one who thinks this would make sense -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=437444
Its becoming more confusing every day mixing program/modification requests with other general stuff. Since Olipro & cmonex are working on a HardSPL, its only a matter of time (if they get it working - which I have no doubt) when Xperia ROMS will be published.
So please give the Xperia an own subforum with seperate general and modification subforums.
best regards

you mean this?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=436

I mean to split that forum. One subforum is becoming more confusing every day ...
Would be nice to have a dedicated subforum with 2-3 subforums for general stuff, modifications and maybe accessories.

yes please would be really great to have an own section one forum is alittle bit strange already

Yes plese could we have subfourms as well.

Subforums would be nice.
Especially before the single forum gets to overcrowded with posts/topics.
Appreciate it once it's done.
Great forum board.
Without it my X1 would be a former shadow of what it is now.
I'm loving all the tweaks & updates

I agree, it needs to be subsplit, the one forum is already getting very busy and looks to be getting more popular all the time.
it already has more threads than some of the other devices combined.
I'd suggest the same as the Diamond, 4 sections, Standard, Rom Dev, Accessories and Apps/Themes.
retty please:

yeah, subforum needed! (as previously requested in xperia forum itself )

+1 for X1 sub forum

So who do we talk to about this?

Dedicated standard 3-forum layout for the X1 would be great. This has to be the most popular non HTC branded phone to date.
Nigel

i agree subforums would be great
maybe even 4 on just for apps and one just for panels then one for roms and another for accessories

Would be great with an Xperia subforum before the posts in the general thread grows more. It's kind of messy as it is.

Would be great with a Xperia Subforum with 3 or 4 categories

Agreed, we need a proper forum.

thank you for the xperia subforum

First and only mistake: you should have posted this in General or Question...not in the development section!

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1642480 look here

Questions go in the Q&A section - not the Dev section.
Also, it's extremely poor manners to sit there and demand that someone makes a ROM for your phone, if it's that important then take the time to learn and do so yourself.

Thanks so much guys.... Am a windows user, cant get tools for windows!

Dislike the merge !!!!

Can we get our own forum for the ION back ??? This is too confusing....already hard to search for what you are looking for Now I have to deal with other two devices. Similar but they are not the same !!!!
Please don't merge !!!!

I second this.
What really sucks is I need to de odex file for 29 so I can finish setting my phone up. Us Ion guys had enough of a issue keeping the newbs squared away and this is going to make it much worse. People are going to be trying to flash stuff they dont need to and messing up their device. I dont have a problem reading but some apparently do.
Now if this was a merge of the T, TL, TX, GX etc I could understand.

+1
Agree, now it is much easier to get Hard brick.

Yes I think every one who has any of these phones in the merge would agree that this merge is not a good idea.

I also don't like it. We had a nice clean and organized forum.

Very disappointed in the slopyness of our once tidy Ion forum. Why go and mess up a good thing.
So Sad...............

+1

I agree. We worked hard to keep the ion forums organized and clean now its all a big mess with the added devices.
Part of the reason I didn't post or help out as much in the XS/XP threads was because it was such a mess. New users always asking the same questions already covered because they couldn't find the answers. Now it will be the same for the ion.

Who make this decision anyway? And who would we talk to voice our opinion ? The forum Moderator? Cant even post in that thread.

I used the triangle shaped report button in the OP of this thread to ask the mods whats up and who I can message about this. still waiting for response.:crying:

Moderators don't make the decisions regarding forum change arounds. Admins do.
This also isn't the best way to go about getting things changed.
I've been approved by Snowflake. Jealous?

Just give xperia s another section.
Nobody wants this things so just make it. Even the simpliest phone got it.
And of course, Sammy phone third got own sections with mobile carrier, ftw????

I also i need to mention this. You must be an retard to hard brick an Sony.
If you cant read the difference between the topic names... then you must be... nvm.

XS user here,
why xda can't just make 1 section for each model?...

Indeed. At least we have separate development sections, otherwise this would be impossible..

Best thing that's happened to the Xperia S in the last few weeks, when it was lumbered in with about 15 other handsets you couldn't find anything and posts were dropping.
I'd like to thank the mods :good:

Ummm... Bad idea.
Everyone spamming his inbox will not get results. Spamming threads will not get results. There's a way to do all of this properly. Go and have a discussion about this in the Xperia Hangout Thread in general and once you all agree on how it should be, make the requests in the relevant place.
Will you lot never be bloody happy though?
When the Xperia S forum was first created and had a ton of devices mixed with it, it was a mess. You lot (not you guys in particular) then started moaning about it.
It got changed to exactly what was asked, and you lot still started moaning about it.
It's been changed around again and once again all people are doing is moaning.
If you want anything to change you can't simply say "It's rubbish, so change it". You need to think of ideas which you all can agree with and give them a try.
This wasn't all aimed at the person I quoted by the way, it was aimed at everyone who decides to carry on moaning about this.
I've been approved by Snowflake. Jealous?

Even if you all don't like the merge, for ION users it presents a good opportunity for development. Devs from the XPS or Acro could possibly work on the ION since the software is similar. Merging the forums will bring attention to the ION, at least I think so.

This is my PMs to admin MikeChannon.

Dear sir,
I frequently visit the XPERIA ION & X10 forums. I always help keep both clean & organized with the help of the report button and the moderators. However my Ion thread has been grouped with phones that don't have compatible software. Can you please separate the general, Q&A and apps & themes forums of Xperia Ion, S, ARCO S. I always try to help users with there problems. However now with all the threads mixed up, not properly labeled, it will be harder to use the search feature. Also in an attempt to help mods clean up 3 phones forums, they will be over run with requests for thread maintenance. This will actually create more work.
I was also wondering why the Samsung sgs3 gets 5 seperate forums based on carrier service. In the Ion forum we help with the 4+ models all in the same forum. I don't know but seems like the Sammys are spreading out while you round up the Sony's.
Please take no offence, none is meant. All of XDA mods and admins do an awesome job and thank you.

Hi
Well unofficially, it seems Sony want to work with us, which is good, but they wanted some re-organization done, which might suit their purposes more than ours. It is not me but another Admin who is dealing with this. The User Experience Admin Svetius, he might be able to tell you more. As I understand it the changes will take quite a long time so it very likely is in a mess at the moment, but may get better.

Disappointed on your decision to make a Sony Xperia Z forum before Asus PadFone 2

A dedicated Sony Xperia Z forum before Asus PadFone 2? I'm disappointed for the first time in XDA. There have been a LOT of requests for a separate forum for our lovely device that is already out in many parts of the world. And now you make a forum for a device that isn't even out yet!

The PadFone is very expensive for what it is, and has failed to capture the interests of developers. The Xperia Z already has developer interest. We add devices based on development potential, and as of yet we've not seen anyone who is in a position to develop that is interested.

You seem to forget that this site is for developers, does not matter how many 'normal' users have a device its all down to the amount of developers that are interested in developing for a device

Pleaseeeeee create subforum
I got the phone from ebay US nd loving it without rooting nd custom rom
But trust me Asus rocks but why the moderators are being unfair for this super hero

Guessing none of the mods are getting one and then there is no need to make a forum. From the request thread this have been much more sought for that the Sony. Ohh well.

The PadFone series has had a recurring issue of not attracting developer attention, due to being more expensive than other similar products.
There has been no real developer interest that I'm aware of. That's why there's no forum.

and these?
http://www.modaco.com/forum/689-asus-padfone-2/
Please
Do not think it's that difficult to create a forum for padfone own 2, no industrial and other amounts, but there is interest!
And with your help, and creating a forum of their own, surely that would give him a push ...
And just to be specific, tablet + phone 700E. is cheaper to buy a phone and a tablet separately ...
thanks
regards

Tbh I got a nexus 10 and phone for much less than 700 EUR...
I looked at the looked forum, seems a dead device... There are 6 threads. But if we add a device, mods must be assigned, and various other things done. As such, we don't add nearly as many niche devices as users would like.
I am afraid you've not really showed interest - do you have, for example, an established CM maintainer who has got source built CM running? These are the kinds of things that show developer interest

Asus padfone 2 subforum please!
Asus padfone 2 subforum please!

+1 for sub forum

+ 100000 sub forum padfone 2
That would greatly help the devs will be encouraged to get roms, etc and assume it would help to sell more ....

+1 for adding subforum

Guys, you don't need to be asking for a forum for the Padfone 2 because;
1) This is the wrong thread to be requesting a forum be added for it. The relevant thread is stickied at the top of this very forum AND
2) One of the admins has already explained that a forum won't be added unless there's proof of strong development for this device.
If, as already suggested, there was an established CM maintainer who has got CM running on this device, then that would likely greatly increase your chances of having a forum created.
Also, don't say that the Padfone 2 will get more developers once it has a forum because that's a load of rubbish. The device is what intrigues/entices the developers. NOT whether there's is a specific sub-forum or not.
There is a Miscellaneous Android Development forum which is perfect for your needs as you can post any development for the Padfone over there.

In facebook there is a portuguese group for this device! Guess how many of the people there actually develop something?
In 1500 people... 0 roms, themes, or whatever! So yes, i am quiet happy that they opened the forum for XPeria Z

is not expensive if u think that u get a phone and a table i buy mine and belive me is fantastic!

UP!

Some of you just don't get it. You're not getting the forum for the same reason I'm not getting a forum for the Kyocera Rise (except I'm not demanding one like I have some natural right to it). Do any of you have any evidence of custom ROM's, development, etc. for the Padfone?

Yes. If it's just Paul you can easily use modaco as it's his forum.
Guys stop crying in here. XDA is a developers site.
If you really want to have a subforum then start developing for it.
That's the only way you'll get a dedicated forum. Constantly making +1 posts in here isn't helpful.
