There you go MS, voted some points to what interested me the greatest.

I just use my gmail to sign in, doesn't really matter. I have not received any spam.
I don't really see how this is new, they have had this for a long time (it was just never added to the official site)
They originally had one for developers that got overrun by consumer suggestions. Therefore they made a 2nd.

Hi guys my first suggestion seems to have gone down quite well. Please vote some another issues which has been bothering me. The ability to swipe through image search results in Bing. You can do that in the IOS Bing app. Note sure why they've not included this in wp7.

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.

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....

Seems I got overlooked....
It's bugging me that I have to show AT&T as my carrier, as apparently carrier isn't an optional field, and Cingular isn't available in the drop down menu....
yeah, I'd be ashamed to show AT&T as my carrier also!!!
Hello fellow xdarians..
I browse WMexperts and WMpoweruser daily and I found this article:
http://wmpoweruser.com/?p=12990
Has anyone already heard about it?
They simple take ideas of people and if it is good enough they will make the app and even share the profit with you but money is not important here, is it??
To the point!
Since everyone is aware that MS Facebook app really sucks, I decided to write these guys to make a decent FB app like iPhones have.
What do you think?
Good idea?
Please share your thoughts in this poll.
PS: This is what I wrote them...I will also post their reply if I'll get any.
LET'S HOORAY FOR A NEW FACEBOOK APP THAT KICKSASS
Hello Appubator Team
I stumbled across an article about your plans to simply make people’s ideas come true.
I would like to get straight to the point.
Since we, Windows Mobile users (no offense to current FB app developer) have really crappy FaceBook application, I would like to ask you to create a perfect Facebook app. Like iPones users have. Even better
Is this possible?
Please let me and the WinMo community know what do you think.
Thank you.
PS: I don’t want 30% of the revenue.
All I (or rather said, we, Windows Mobile users) want is a good Facebook app.

Well, since the MS Facebook application did have a lot of negative comments, it would be nice to see someone trying to make it better for the WM users. And, the request itself can't hurt, so - yes is my vote.
Good idea.
Just do it, do it, do it do it do it, nooow=)! It would be great!!!
Surely want one. Microsoft's Facebook app is extrememly ugly even I don't wanna show that screen to my friend. And I cannot accept that lack of funtionality.
Please make one.
Hey all,
I'm a very new user to Android, but the last few days I've been trying it out from the XDAndroid build and I love it.. I know what my next Mobile OS is going to be now. Which device is another question.
As I've used it and read some of the threads it occurred to me that it could be valuable feedback to users and developers to get a poll of several aspects of the XDAndroid build. Missing features, importance of existing features, how often you use the OS, etc.
This is my first time using this Survey Monkey tool, so forgive me if the questions aren't perfect. I've fiddled with it over the last few hours and I think it reflects most of what I've thought and from existing posts on the forum from other users.
Click here to take the survey: http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/GFD2QKG
As I start getting responses I'll post the results periodically. A free account doesn't appear to have the ability to publicly post the results so I'll do it periodically manually.
Thanks for taking the poll, and a huge thanks to all of the people who have worked on it and facilitated making it this easy to use Android on our devices!
reserved for results
I'll post results every few days.. I have yet to figure out a decent way to scrape them. The HTML below looks the best but you can't see the free-form input. PDF you can see it.
Results as of May 05:

Cool.
I just took the survery.
I think I am the first one.
Hopefully, we will get a good poll on what people want the most out the features of the Andriod, which is already amazing as it is right now.
Great idea man, just took the survey ill say it was pretty nice taking it
Thanks for the poll. I've completed it although I did have to be creative with some of the answers because they didn't allow for a "none of the above" answer - I haven't used Android yet but want to as soon as GPS is working on the TP2. (Wishing I hadn't given my mum my TYTN2, otherwise I'd be playing with it already.)

Hmm, what do you think I could modify in that regard? I'm not sure I can edit it now that it's active but I'll take any suggestions.
your answers to the "how often do you use the MJG upgrade util" or whatever it said will be null bc you cant select "never" and there are quite a few of us that update through glemsons autobuilds and have never touched the cab version. I had to select weekly for it to let me finish.
Thanks though!
Sorry about missing "Never" on a few options, first time I've created one of these polls..
Results as of right now I've just posted. I'll post every 3-4 days as it makes sense to do so.
I have transformer, nook, focus, TP2, and Iphones I just wanna be able to filter those forums this scrolling on every load is ok but would be nice to be able order in order of importance to user.

Just subscribe to the forum. Then it'll show up in your UserCP. That way you've got direct access to it. You subscribe to a foum the same way as subscribing to a thread, by toggling the Forum Tools drop box and clicking Subscribe.
Yeah I just thought that would be another option

Can't really go off topic in your own thread.
I'm trying to finish up the last of my work early so I can get out a celebrate. I'm still in WM. I can't seem to leave. I've got AmericanAndroid on my Leo, but Android still isn't for me. WP7 is way too limited for my liking as well. Glad I could help out again.
A translator you can really talk to, literally. Say what you need and Speechy VTS will translate and speak out loud what you said in English for others to know what you really need or if you're just trying to learn the language to prepare for your trip.
So when you're at the Airport and no one speaks English and you don't know the native tongue, you can say "How do I get to Terminal B" and know someone who speaks Spanish, Japanese, Chinese, or French can help.
Currently in BETA and as we've encountered 1-error out of 10 so far, we may be needing more testers but on a non-AT&T Network. If you're interested, please let me know as we will contact you if you're deemed needed.
Thank you all for our continued support by XDA and it's users, YOU!
Nice app, but I have question: Does app supports other languages, or only those listed ?

Hi Budniu,
Currently at the time of the screen shot, those were the only languages supported but we've now migrated to a whole new speech service that is using a speech server hosted in the cloud...
We we're trying to make it a non-net connected App but we've gotten requests/concerns wanting other languages like Babel fish, Bing & Google Translators offer.
Good thing is, we don't make App's around us and what we want. We make what YOU, the users want and that is our main goal.

That is so terrific to hear! We can't wait for you to try it out too and see what you think about it...
Unfortunately though, an automatic closing issue kept occurring on non-US Phone Carriers using SpeechyVTS 0.0.6B. Everyone who got a pre-existing copy, including USA has been asked to please remove from his/her phone, just temporarily.
Good news is, we've spotted the error and I think pretty much done but just want to make sure it's workable and stays loaded before allowing even US users access once again... We will notify you ALL immediately and update the screen shot.
I appreciate your message as it's nice to know we have others interested!

Speechy: VTS got a bit of a face-lift... Here she is! Now with a iPhone "like" scroll list to easily scroll through the list of languages and the list acts just like an iPhone list as it can be flicked and extra "cushion" to the top and bottom of the list when you pull/scroll through it...
Icon's/Tiles are being revamped... All those who were interested in testing, you'll be notified.
Thank you,

Hello,
With the new update, all testers are desired. We've changed how Speechy works almost entirely as for functionality to try and make it, without sounding too rude, idiot proof.
I will notify you once the file is encrypted and ready for export.

BETA Requests ENDING!
I would like to thank EACH AND EVERY ONE OF YOU, you've all been great and have made this very exciting for us.
However, we've gotten an outrageous amount of requests which will be ending, tonight. We will not be allowing anyone else as of 11/23/11 - 9:45 PM PDT. Very sorry but as we didn't want to turn anyone down, we got mass amounts of requests!
Q: Will you have any other BETA's?
A: Yes! We're actually fixing it up for the 3rd BETA release but making this public, just like this as it seems to be AMAZING people wishing to try our stuff.
Q: ... But will it be Voice Enabled?
A: Actually, it is... The App is named TESA (The Extremely Smart App) and it is our take on the ever so popular iPhone 4GS Plugin, Siri.
Q: Is it just like Siri?
A: No. TESA is programmed with a hundred+ (or will be) options/functionality and really to be used to help those who are blind or bad vision and additionally for general use of course.
Q: Hundred options? Doesn't sound like much!
A: It is quite a bit but that's ok as we're making this a public TODO List where you the users get to help add functionality in to an App. With a simple form, submit a desired task OR word/phrase/etc and could be added and in some cases (if verified) instantly!
As for TESA, we'll need a valid Full Name, Zipcode and Email but not everyone will be elected to try it unfortunately and please wait until the thread for it is created before requesting to help.
Thank you all yet again!
Sincerely,
Lance
Quick question: it will be a free/ad-based app, or paid?
For promoting (so aggressively) commercial app you should pick another forum, AFAIK...
It will be free. If you wish to have the entirely other edition with OCR translations included (not shown), that will be paid. TESA will be free as well, maybe a popup but doesn't seem logical since really no UI for it and can use Bluetooth to use it.
I forgot to ask... Which forum should I be directed to for my commercial apps?
