Hello XDA community,
I've been looking around this site for a while now, mostly getting cool apps for my HTC Touch Pro2. And this is maybe my 3rd actual post on these forums. But I just wanted to taka a moment to point out the quality of this community.
There seem to be apps and fixed for pretty much eveything, making my phone so much better. But, more important then that, people seem to be very willing to help eachother out. In a non-selfish way. A lot of devs have the option to donate to them, but they never require people to pay for their brilliant work. Users who have issues with their phone often get helped out in a matter of hours.
Having said the above, I'm surprised a rather large community still has these qualities. Therefor I dedicate this thread to XDA
So yea, that's about it
Yeah!
This is a great community
Read, Search, Respect and Enjoy!
Thanks, it is a great community! Have Fun & Happy Flashing!

I'm sorry, I did not realize that creating a topic which is simply complementing the entire community was a crime (sarcasm)
EDIT: I see you're banned now actually, explains the silly post you made...
This the best forum I have found to date for andriod phones. I am by no means skilled at development of a ROM, but I have used many on my Thunderbolt and I seem to have a knack for finding glitches

Thank you because you are also part of this community now, eventhough you are not a developer right now; helping others with something that you have seen or may now contributes to make this site better.
Welcome,
I have been an unregistered browser of these forums for about a month, but a few days ago I decided to go ahead and sign up. Not sure how much I will be able to contribute, but I have (and am still) learned so much. Its amazing, that little search box up top has answered every single question I had about my android phones. To all the fine folks who run/develope/contribute/post here, THANK YOU!
Thanks kentu,
our main goal is to have satisfied user that enjoy their stay here at XDA and when an user is happy, we are happy.
cheers.

Well I just joined and can not contribute to any of the conversations I would like to contribute to because I do not have 10 posts yet so I guess you can count me as unsatisfied at the moment.. I can't even comment on stuff in the marketplace? So I'm forced to contribute BS to conversations I don't care about to get 10 posts so I can join the discussions I want to join. There seems like there has to be a better way.

Give it time and you'll be able to contribute knowledge that the devs don't get to. While they're making sweet roms for us to use the rest of is are here to help others get to know how they work and contribute fixes for people who get unlucky and brick there phones. It took me a couple of weeks to get enough understanding to be able to help and soon enough you'll be there as well.

I dont have a problem with the 10 post rule. Just take the time go be constructive with your posts, and when you reply to someone post try to add something helpful. As you can see I'm not at 10, but i'll be there soon, no worries.
I'm really enjoying the site

If only more new members were like you two. Welcome to XDA. Hope you enjoy it here.
Much thanks, boborone
I am a member of several different types of forums (Various Video Game, and Electronics), and one thing they all have in common is the Basics.

Would have to agree with you kentu3. MOst of the questions have already been answered if you search.
Another thing that I do before posting a question about ROM "xyz" is to read the whole thread on that rom. You would be or not be suprised as to how many times the same question gets asked.
Thanks again kentu3 for this thread, and a big thanks to the DEV's and MOD's who make this site worth visiting
Hi! New here. I for one like the 10 post rule because it helps keeping it clean and when you surpass the limit you have proven yourself worthy.
Coming from a wide range of other communities, also as admin or moderator, I instantly knew XDA's rule was brilliant. Looking forward to contributing in any way I can.
Now I'm gonna try and find out how to find this Thanks-button in XDA app

It is quite an ad-heavy site unless you use a blocker of some description. There's also a mammoth amount of content. I've seen a lot of people mention load times as a downfall, but to be honest I don't notice it taking any longer than some of the other tech sites I frequent
Load times are such a subjective thing though, everyone will differ. What browser do you use? Firefox seems to pop up a lot re: slow load times.
Well I typically do most of my surfing at work, which I use IE right now. Don't have much of a choice. I downloaded Firefox a while back but it never worked right. Not sure if it's because of the firewall or whatever here, (I have no idea how that all works) but Firefox was terrible. I tried to get Chrome but it's blocked too.
The slowness to me isn't really a huge deal, just curious why as other forums I frequent load pretty fast. But the more I surf around here, there is a TON of info.

I use IE (6) at work too Ed, and it's noticeably (horribly) slower than Chrome at home. Likewise, all other options are restriced here for me.
For personal use at home, the latest Chrome with Ad Blocker Pro (free) works extremely well at speeding up the genera;l browsing experience here at XDA. It is a resource-heavy forum so it still takes a little longer to load, but that's the price I pay for the wealth of information here, to me personally anyway
Could be worse, I was on 56k at home until last year when they upgraded our RIM (out in woop-woop)
I'm currently posting this here because the Epic 4G Touch fascinates me the most thus far, so hopefully this is the right place to start this thread.
This is my first post on XDA; But I have been following this website for over a year ..
I would like to offer my services (as a senior graphics designer) for any developer that is in need. I currently
have 12 years experience of graphics design in my back pocket.
I can do a few services for free, as long as it is in my time frame.The reason I bring up my time frame is because I'm
employed by quite a few companies and can get pretty swamped with work.
message me to see my work and to set-up a schedule if interested.
--Apparently I can't post pictures of my work considering I'm well off from the 10 post count :/
This sounds like a job posting. I would say this is the first time on xda I have seen anyone post their resume and say they do some free work. Don't get me wrong devs spend tons of time on the ROMs and I am happy to donate to their time. But it sounds like your asking a dev team and regular users to look at your resume and pay you for work?

Absolutely not doing this for money or looking for work, sorry if my post came off as that. Some dev's might want a particular style they want to incorporate into their projects hence looking at some of my work might inspire new ideas. As stated, I get pretty swamped with work. I'm offering free services when I have free time. A few free services meaning: smaller projects at the moment, if asked to hold-up something big, I won't be able to sacrifice my time. If of course, I get more free time, I can be involved a bit more. Just taking one small step at a time.

Sorry for the late reply, got caught up with a few things. I will email you some of my work today.
Thanks!
Do me a favor, perhaps?
Lately, I've been enjoying all the great roms and kernels that the Dev community has provided and I'd like to somehow give back. If any devs would possibly provide some simple advice on how to start developing or links to a few guides/resources they found the most helpful, I'd be super appreciative. (Well, more than I am already
I'm not a quick learner or a genius of some sorts, so hopefully the community isn't expecting much... But, if I do learn a lot and possibly enough to create something decent. I hope I'll be able to create something useful for all of you to enjoy sometime in the near future. Thanks and God bless.
