No. As u can see every single general post was removed from each one

I can't be the only one that thinks all of them should have a combined "Galaxy S III Accessories" section.

Yeah... AT&T should still get a decent amount of traffic considering how many of us there are.. but Tmobile, sprint are probably screwed
Also, they split the forums but STILL have it by the AMERICAN carrier name.
They need to have it by the model # name... ie AT&T would be the i747 instead. That way canadian users wont be confused either
This needed to be done. I support the mods in splitting these up.

I don't know about T-Mobile but I've had a Sprint phone and they surprisingly get some decent development going on for the Samsung/Evo phones. Not so much Photon for example, I don't know if they ever got anything good.

Sorry for the T-Mobile and sprint guys but I agree with the split. Coming from a galaxy s2 it was ridiculous to try and find att specific posts because there was just so much traffic. Not to mention if u posted a new topic, it would quickly get buried.

Why in the world anyone would want to wade through so much mess to find something specific to your model is beyond me. THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR SPLITTING THE FORUMS!!!

I only agree with it for the Q&A and two dev forums. The rest should be together, all the accessories are now in the 9300 forum it seems. I certainly understand the problems, but some of that is because some people (developers included) didn't realize that things like CWM are different on different phones now, so we have people with IMEI problems who --appear-- to have used Sprint CWM on ATT phones (I would have been in that category but Samsung replaced my phone already).
The way it was was perfect.
Galaxy S III Accessories is no different than accessories for the t-mobile/Verizon/AT&T/Sprint versions. Same for Galaxy S III Themes and Apps, as these phones share the mods. Now we have to check 4-5 places for the same thing.

What is the point of this thread? I'm assuming you're complaining about the layout of the device's section? I don't think that will do anything.
If it's the same in each of those sections, then why would you have to look in 4 or 5 places? It would surely be in all of them.

The accessories are the same. The themes and apps definitely are not. You think themes are just images, but they're really modified system files. Flashing an i9300 theme onto a i747, for example could cause bootloops.
Is it just me, or do you guys find yourself checking out other carrier galaxy note 2 forums here on xda. Honestly I find it annoying jumping back and forth between the tmobile, verizon, att and sprint forums.I know there are subtle differences between the variants software wise but is it honestly enough to create 4 different forums? Alot of the tips and tricks, problems and questions being ask in these forums are very useful and relevant to other carrier galaxy note 2's. I just wanted to get poll and see if everyone else kinda feels the same way. If so, maybe we can get xda to consolidate...

That would be something the developer in the development section would point out. The same could be said of people downloading the internationals versions of roms on US devices or vice versa. When i had my g2 there were plenty of roms that were out for the US device that could not be used on the international (z) device. We still however had a combined forum since in most cases the devices were exactly the same. Same courtesy should be extended to this device.
I too think it's better to have different forums for different carriers even though the phone itself are very similar. It make it easier for people to find out updates that is through the carriers only or roms
Merge at least the i317(M) and T889 (potentially also N7105) General/Q&A subforums.
Having these two separate makes almost no sense.
No. It would turn these forums into the never ending

Forums
Separate please.
Keep it as it is. The adventurous can take a trip to the other forums.
Hastily spouted for your befuddlement
Can you believe that there are 7 separate forums for Note2 in XDA? I find myself typing "note" into the "Find Your Device..." field very often to see what models are available, and I actually sometimes visit AT&T sections. I don't bather visiting others because it's too cumbersome.
I think it is more like we should change the hierarchy of the forums; move (combine) all Note2 forums under the "Samsung Galaxy Note II" forum which is already there, but keep each variant (different models) into different sub-forums. We would have a separate dev sub-forum for each carrier plus a general dev sub-forum to cover universal matters, but a combined themes sub-forum, etc.

This makes it easy to navigate without too much clatter. We can also check the activity levels (i.e. post counts) of other Note's on one page.
Would be sweet if we had the choice to merge/collapse subforums of our own choosing for our own viewing pleasure. I know I'd merge the AT&T and T-Mo forums, so I'd view those as one for myself whereas someone else could view them separately.
XDA 3.0?
I say no.

We need to combine the General, Questions and Apps section, not the rest.
Leave it seperate. But I can agree to last post. Lol

Keep it as it is. There are enough posts here to keep me busy, I never have to go to forums for our carriers to look for information.

Same here, why in the world do we have separate forums for these topics. They are basically the same phones. I myself find myself going back and forth between these forums, very annoying and also a good loss of creative potential by splitting folks up. Please merge them.
Sent from my SGH-T889 using xda premium
Merge them, put GSM dev, CDMA dev, then if you really want within those have the carrier sub-forums. The sub-forums would be for things like modems. Accessories forum is already shared, if they collapsed all LTE note 2 sections to one device it would make life easier and devs would not need to have 3 or more threads for multi-carrier ROMs.

You know I'm sick of seeing this. If people post in the wrong section start complaining to the xda admin! Instead of adding another absolutely useless "wrong section" post. There is a Verizon galaxy nexus dev section, a sprint galaxy nexus dev section, and a Samsung galaxy nexus dev section. But 1 Samsung galaxy nexus general section. It's confusing to people especially newer users, so instead of posting another useless wrong section post go complain to the mods and admin, they created this mess

Any forum clearly labeled as "development" (such as this one) is for releasing ROMs, Mods, etc. Not questions or general discussion. Its really not that complicated. And I think thats what irritates a lot of people. And this is a boot animation, which actually belongs in the theme section.

Yes you are right, but all I'm saying is it's equally irritating, to me anyways, to see "wrong section" all the time. For some people its just an honest mistake because it is somewhat confusing. They see 1 section for Verizon Galaxy Nexus, and they have a Verizon Galaxy Nexus so that's where they put it. The way the sections are labeled people who don't know better think that every section except the ones labeled "Verizon" and "Sprint" are for the GSM Galaxy Nexus. If the general section was labeled Galaxy Nexus (all) or something along those lines it would be more understandable when people get frustrated for wrong posts being in a dev section.

I get what your saying. And I can see how people could get confused. But I dont know how else the Moderators could do it. I actually think putting (all) after forum titles might confuse some people too. Pointing out that they posted in the wrong thread though is mainly meant to prevent them from doing it again. Not to scare them away from the forums. And yes, it doesnt have to be (and shouldn't be) pointed out in a rude way.
Lmao that is the stupidest animation ever! Google never mixes the version in with their boot animations.
I hope the final version is much more professional looking.

Tapatalk cannot handle redirects to the Samsung Galaxy Note 4 Accessories section. So either bookmark that section or use web view for the redirect to work.
