Develop Bugs

[REQUEST] International speaking forum sections.

This message is for the owner and administrators of this site/forum.
By looking at the recent discussions in some forum sections and sadly see people leaving this place, complaining, giving bad feedbacks around other places, and even create new forums by their own, I kindly ask you to value the option to create a few specific International forum sections for non-english speaking users, who would like to share their opinions, cookings, etc... without the need to face anymore "english language only" problems. I ask this, because there seems to be a lot of confusion about this, especially by Italian users, as I am.
As I think this forum has been always the leading one, in matter of handheld device development, I think it is also in your interest to earn new users and never to lose anyone of current ones. I am not asking you to create 100 new sections, Just a few separate sections named for example: "German Forum" , "Italian Forum" , "Spanish & Portuguese" and so on.... just for the main languages, which are no more than 7-8... even less. Many of the most popular forums I know did this already, and inside this one, I think it's even more important.
So please, if you can, take some time to think about this request, or otherwise just reject it and explain why and what it stops you from doing that.
Regards
10th July: POLL added. Feel free to submit your vote.

Well, it seems no one has interest in this...
very nice...

Unless you'd have a Moderator for each different language with the task to pass new findings and developments to the "International" section, i don't see any benefit in it. In fact i think the rules should be more restrictive regarding the languages used in forum messages by demanding the translation to english! I do understand languages other than my own but would like to know what Turkish, Germans or other are saying (even if it brings nothing new to my knowledge)
Just 2 cents

I know what you mean,
but in my idea local language speaking forums would be just minor general forums (where you won't find exclusive informations) made mainly to help such users who can't speak and understand english without the need to warn them to use english language only. And I think there are a lot of users who come to this site just to find links and download cooked roms and patches, and sometimes happens that they ruin their handheld just because they didn't understand completely what they downloaded and its instructions.
Of course it's clear that every language section will have a moderator/s, which would be a trusted user (who knows the local forum language) who can moderate the section in the same way and with same rules as the english ones (there will be a sticky post with the rules translated in local language).
I think all this can only bring a positive effect over this forum.
Anyway, I just added a poll for this matter... everyone feel free to vote!

German Artemis ROM cooking site

Hi guys,
I had the idea to start a dedicated site about ROM cooking with a focus on INFORMATION. I splitted the page into two areas German and English / international.
Here the links:
http://www.artemis-project.com Main site, only for language selection
http://ger.artemis.project.com German site
http://wwe.artemis.project.com English site
The German page is already running, I invite all of you German speaking guys that have experience with ROMs, hacking the registry, design and whatever is useful for ROM cooking to help us build up that site.
Our focus will be on creating tutorials and cooking ROMs. We will create tutorials with detailed information and pictures that help everyone to understand the whole process better and enable the less experienced guys to cook your own ROMs too.
For the beginning I ask only the more experienced people to participate since we will have a better start. Don't think you are not welcome but we can't explain you everything from the beginning. If you have a few years of computer experience, know how to edit the registry or are good at designing graphics then you got the skills to help us.
You'd need to work a lot on your own, try out a lot of things and document them is such a way that we all can understand it so we can talk about it afterwards to evaluate. I hope that didn't sound too professional
As I already said, this site is going to be much more about information, I don't want to split up this nice community! But we are going to be stricter on forum rules: No double posts, double questions and so on. There won't be a single thread that will have 1000 postings!
There will also be almost no request for including programs into the ROM, we want the people to be able to do that themselves. If it is an extra cool application we didn't know yet we will use it of course !
Questions and answers about a ROM will be in a FAQ as soon as they are solved. The posts from the forum will be erased and in the FAQ there will be mentioned who found the solution.
As soon as we have a good and stable ROM or some extraordinary news about a very hot topic we will share it with this comminity of course.
So if there are 10-20 German talking guys I'd be happy to work with you together on a ROM that rocks
Sebastian
PS:
The english page is there but won't be used until there really is a need for. So please don't register right now on the English page.

I am really wondering why no one ansers my question- is it crime to be noobie

Hey guys
I bought my htc pro2 hoping I would find a forum that what not look at me arrogantly because of me being a noobie. I am really amazed here, in the other sections like TOUCH HD when I owned one the forum members used to answer and help me alot.
While here no one even bothers
I have 2 main question
1- Is there a way to write and read arabic and hebrew
2- How can I fix the gps using IGO, I noticed it is not very accuarte when it comes to its location by about some meters
I know after I wrote this no one will answer

I ran a quick search to find what you're looking for (use this link for quick finds: http://www.google.com/advanced_search?q=+site:http://forum.xda-developers.com&hl=en&lr=&as_qdr=all )
Here's one on hebrew support: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=532165&page=2
And one on IGO8 (there are several GPS threads to choose from) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=562245
Hope that helps...

this is the solution to your problem--- USE THE SEARCH FEATURE!!! im not trying to be rude but thats why the search feature is there and obviously it wasnt that hard to find ur answer bc the previous poster found it quickly...again, not trying to get a tude, just trying to help

It might help if you put some clue to what you want in your title. Otherwise, someone who knows the answer may not even look.
A thread titled "I am really wondering why no one ansers my question- is it crime to be noobie" just sounds like a thread where someone is whining about not being answered.
I would title it something like "HELP: How to input arabic & hebrew? / Fix the gps using IGO?" It would help people notice your actual intent. No one is going to be doing a full text search for threads they can answer.

No, wrong.
(1) The word "HELP" does not add anything. A good title would be: Support for Hebrew/Arabic Input
(2) These are two separate topics that deserve separate threads.

Where you live ? It`s my job - I come to you and teach. Price per our (114.-€) +tax and travel.

just noticed your accomplishment: 4 posts, 4 threads, 3 of them basically redundant, 2 duplicate and opened within 6 minutes, 2 in the wrong forum, quite a startup
for the future pls do the following:
read the rules and abide by them; especially do search b4 posting, use existing threads to ask, don't open threads for answers easily found on the forum
your question was answered twice, thread closed

[Q] Substitute APNews on Bada 2.0

Hi guys!
Just one question. Have you ever tried changing APNews widget rss for any other one?
I've have tried modifying an .ini file with Trix, changing the apnews rss for another one, but reboot bucle happens when trying to connect from the the widget.
Has anyone succeed in this or has the key to do it correctly.
Thanks in advance. Happy new year, by the way!

No one?

I'm sorry but you are not in the right section to post here that type of question.
Here it is discussions about the android project on wave I and II.
This thread have to be moved to Bada software discussions.

The section about Android is another one. Read above

I didn't know that link. Thanx so much.
However, it was just a deal of improving my knowledge at the time of modifying firmwares. Just to know if I could change that fixed widget as almost no one in Spain is aware of that AP News Rss.
If you somehow know what to modify, please, let me know.
Thanks again
