Please add a sub-forum for this tablet. Thanks
Bump, I agree!
Please add a forum for the Acer Iconia a100.
I also agree. The A100 needs it's own forum as a distinct device from the A500.
Sure. I agree with above.
bump please add forum

Definitely needed. Right now A100 owners are posting in the A500 forums and some people are getting confused.
Looking forward to lots of A100 goodness in a new subforum!
I would like to see noobs posting on the right thread instead cluttering the forums
(requests) From the Users to the Mods & Admins
Just purchased one as well and would love to see a sub forum for this device.
See below
See post below...
Right now on the first page of this subforum there are 8 requests for new subforums. No one is providing any guidance on where the "correct" place is for these, but it's a reasonable assumption that if someone goes into the About section and sees a bunch of other open request threads, they will surmise that this is the appropriate place.
In fact, here is a moderator explicitly acknowledging a request thread in this particular subforum.
It would be greatly appreciated if people would tell us where the correct place is, instead of just saying this is the wrong one.
A100
I PM'd the forum head over the Acer Iconia A500 ( af874 ), to see if he can put in for a new A100 forum.
Here is the list to find who is over a forum.

+1 section for A100
Please admin make our a100 section
Please admin make Acer a100SUB Forum Thanks
Any word on our sub forum being created???????????????????????????????????????????????????????
Please add a sub forum for the A100.
Thanks!
+1 for sub forum request, this tablet has a lot of potential
Apologies if this is the wrong forum to ask this... there are so many boards here, it's a little daunting, and I couldn't seem to find a board that's a better fit. ^^'
Anyway, I noticed there are no forums for the HTC Windows Phone 8X or 8S. Now, I don't know if these are available everywhere yet, but at least in the UK they are launching at the end of the month, or at least the SIM-free versions are, according to amazon.co.uk. I pre-ordered the 8S and it is supposed to come on Tuesday. So, will a forum for the 8X and 8S, or separate ones for both, be made? And will that only happen upon their release?
I agree, there should be a forum for the 8X/8S models.
And I think you should both search for the right place to post this as there is a thread called something like 'New Forum Suggestions' already where this should be. Sorry I can't give the exact link but I'm on my phone right now.
Please use this thread for all device forum requests. Thread closed.
This thread being in the Android Dev thread further goes along with what I want to say!
How can we get a mod to make a KF2 QA? I still see some questions in the KFHD QA and some questions in the dev thread. Technically, they should be in their own KF2 QA thread, but I think it would be very nice. We already have the SGT7 ROM, Hashrom, 1 click method, and a few other threads that belong in the dev section. I think the questions would be bettered answered and dealt with if they had their own thread.
Just my opinion as I tried to look at every thread in this forum and now it's getting a lot larger, and soon to be cumbersome.
Another thing is (no offense to the posters, it's not about your post, but rather about not having the QA section) that when you see things like "miui port" and "tricking apps" you have no way to know at a glance if it's a question about it, or a dev posting something they have done. I know that people can mark things as questions, and dev items should be categorized, but that's not the case sometimes and I just feel it would be nicer.
That is all.

Great Idea, I have been wanting this since before I even owned my kf2. I took one look at this forum and thought what a traffic jam from god knows where.

Yeah. The second I saw it I was very very confused and thought I just was missing something. Then when I saw the chaos of posts I knew it was confusing everyone haha.
I think that if it does get cleaned we should be able to keep certain threads or possibly have them be re-written. A lot of things are old news and bad guides that are outdated methods. Possibly have things like hashrom and one click stickied, or stick a post with a link to all the guides and have one of us who can update that one the most keep up with it. I feel like this community will grow a bit and we should organize it before it scares new people away
I agree, it is becoming an issue.
I can see the KF 2 will keep growing, as when I subscribed to the section at the end of November I think there were only 4 posts and nobody knew how to do anything. Now we have blossomed into a community with guides and a couple of roms, with even more on the horizon as we get a stable base.
Now would be a good time to sort this out.

I'm working on splitting the fie HD forum up into a clearer structure so its easier for the users of the different tabs. The Adkins are looking into each having its own area with general q&a and dev.

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

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.

Every one here (Both original Shield Hand-held owners, and Shield Android TV owners) should post the the forum request thread (Link below).
I posted again today with a slightly stronger-worded post.

This is still by far better than nothing. And you CAN post links to your ROM here right. Devdb would be great but you should be happy for even getting a repo like this. I agree, it still not top notch but at least there is a tiny bit organization.

I am by all means happy that this is here, but at the same time, I still want a real forum going.
Most of the posts that got put in here are 1 post long, and the relevant post about rooting and the more active posts did not get put in here...

Oh where can you get the rom?
At least now you can type in the find device box and actually find everything related to the shield tv. Not exactly a separate forum though. I'm thinking it will get sorted out soon.
I'm in favor of this... the shield tv is pretty much the most powerful android box on the market. Just because it uses an external monitor doesn't mean its not worthy of a separate forum...
The shield handheld and tablet both have their own forums,,,,

Actually very unusual for XDA to not set up a "proper" forum for this. Before several phone (S6 for example) were even out they had the forums made properly. It's like they do not like Nvidia for some reason.

JJ-KwiK said:
I definitely agree. They post various explanations as to why a proper forum hasn't been made. However, when we try to open a dialog about the issue, they flat out ignore us (see HERE). They obviously don't want to open a complete forum for the device. It's too bad, because a ton of members would benefit from a proper forum with proper sub-forums in the proper section.
Edit:
They've posted a Nvidia Shield TV unboxing/review in the portal. I've added my comment there as well. Hopefully something will come of it (see HERE).

Their current most important argument against us is "In the threads, within this section, there have been a total of 215+/- posts. Not all that many.", as you have stated this is partially because our posts are scattered of different subsections. Perhaps we can try to keep them within this section? I suppose the amount of posts will increase as the device gains users anyway. Especially when the device becomes available on my side of the pond (imported mine). So I personally still have the hope a forum will be created in the future, we just have to keep on posting about this awesome device and matters will solve themselves.
TLDR: Keep posting in this forum about the NVIDIA Shield Android TV for WIN!
i can't even subscribe to this forum b/c it's not the same as other device forums. very frustrating.
nvm figured it out. but would still be nice to have an actual forum space with sub forums like other devices.
