I am requesting that polls in threads should be made editable just like posts are editable. Right now I posted a thread in which I made poll to see which ROM is the most popular and I guess I forgot some roms so people gave me suggestions to place their rom in the poll, and I can't because I can't edit the poll. I also would like the poll to be editable so that I can add roms that are new or that I forgot. I would just like the poll to be editable in a way that I can add or delete options. Well, thank you for your time and for taking my request into consideration, I hope to hear from u soon.

It's a limitation of vBulletin. Even moderators have limited access to amend polls. If you need a new option, or a poll closing, that's possible, just PM a Senior Mod.
If you want a poll resetting that needs an admin. Either PM a Senior Mod and they'll add it to an Admin's TODO list, or PM mikechannon / egzthunder1 - but the admins do have quite busy workloads .
Thanks

Not sure if this has been suggested before, but a dev podcast would be great...the Android podcasts out there now, are pretty much unlistenable due to crappy audio quality and and boring content. I think it would be cool for diff. dev. teams to talk hacking, rom-ing, theming and addressing issues and new technology. For example... have the guys from Team Nocturnal on to discuss their roms with special guests like kernel devs and themers on. It would be a great way for these dev. teams to get some money by selling advertising and doing something they do on here for free anyway... Maybe the website could even finance and advertise these, get them out there and drive even more traffic to the site. Ask those interested for show demos and maybe pick the best for each carrier and discuss their phones exclusively. Just a thought, maybe an hour or two a week to keep their minions up to date and answer the best questions on air. I would listen and download and support such a project. If you would too, let xda hear your voice. Let them know your feelings and ideas below!

I couldnt agree more , I googled for XDA Podacast and your thread showed up ...
Some of the podcasts are ok (Engadget,Verge) but im looking for something more along the ROM flashing variety as well ...
Will point the admin in this direction. Thanks for your suggestion
We have a podcast in the pipeline Look for it in Q1 next year
Holy S! Thread is resurrected! With ICS dropping on a lot of phones around then, that is perfect timing. Thank you thank you thank you! When this happens we need people to pump this on their Twitter and Facebook accounts and get the word out in the threads....huge leap for XDA, this should be commended and supported by all the Android freaks out there! Props!

I know this forum is not necessarily the place to post this but someone from XDA will see it this way. Seriously there are far too many ads in the forum pages. It's causing a huge lag at times because of all the stupid banners that are loading. Ya'll should really think about getting rid of some.
Sv: Too many ads
Less ads = less money
Less money= pay

Buy Tapatalk or XDA premium and quit crying about a free site needing to generate some revenue. What do you think all the bandwidth for the 4+million users is free? All the webmasters and admins work for free? Someone donated the hosting? Here's an idea go run your own free site with no ads and see how long you keep it running with all the costs coming out of your pocket
I like to break stuff!
I also think its too many ads.. But I also agree with the guy above me.. Its not free to run this site.. Plus I use my phone for xda.. I might use the actual website once every few months

If you're going to whine about ads, then use Adblock Plus or something. It is someone's income. I am perfectly OK with XDA having ads considering the wealth of information that is consolidated onto a single site.
Ya use ad block
Sent from my Samsung Galaxy s3
how is it even possible for someone with over 2k posts to still not know about adblocking extensions for chrome and firefox? you're obviously not new to the internet and have spent quite some time on this forum alone. use your God-given brain.
Use adblock with standart settings. It will allow few adds on site. Admins will have money (for site hosting), you`ll see less adds.
this site used to be ad free.. then i guess someone got a bit greedy and decided to infest the site with ads. yes i know running a site cost money but there are many ways to bring income without having 5+ ads on a single page, as a result i use ad blocker when i visit here.. i know from experience as i run my own site since 2001.
they could at least maybe do a premium membership where members and developers (some who even use this site to "advertise" their apps) can donated a few dollar and have no ads. maybe a recurring membership every 3-6 months with added features.

Complaining about free tech support. Way to exercise that free speech. Typical liberal thinking, apply the rules to yourself the way you see it benefits you.
I found those long signatures more annoying than ads here. I'm used to the layout of the page, and my eyes just ignore those places for ads. But, as I am browsing the posts, those long signatures take a lot of scrolling.
I do use the app, which does not show the sigs, and jumps to the last unread (like it very much). But I'm on my computer all day.

Uh, this is a privately owned forum. Free speech doesn't apply here, they can tell make you shut up about anything they want. Theres no constitutional protections in privately held venues, on the internet or in real life. The first amendment only guarantees that the government can't stifle your speech.

Please, keep from using texting lingo in here, this is a forum for people helping people, not your pal on a friday night...
Secondly, being rude will get you nowhere. The XDA comunity resoloves around 1 main thing: Mutual respect. Either from users, devloppers or debuggers, no ones' getting paid to help anyone here. It's all "pro-bono", but honestly, this type of writing and behaviour will most likely keep users from helping and answering you.
Lastly, your question is too generic. All devices have "bugs", some minors, some majors. But, to answer as vagely as you, There's no bugs that will keep you from using the device "generaly".
If you want to be more specific, more respectfull and write in a way that is understandable, I'll (or, I asume, many others) will be happy to answer you.
I appreciate ur answer .. Just want to point out something .. Writing things in text form will not reduce the respect ! I apologize for my "rudeness" but if this community is based on respect then he should not have mocked me saying : think about all the lgog threads he will post

Sent from my GT-S5570 using xda app-developers app
Well, honestly, taking the time to write in a way other users will undestand easely is part of the "respect". No one wants to "decrypt" a message before giving a hand...
I've read your other post, and I have the LG OG since novembre, so I can easely tell you that the battery will hold 2 to 3 days for "normal use". Meaining some browsing, some music playing, some online radio streaming, some gaming, etc... But, if you have poor reception, the battery will drain faster (as any device would).
For gaming and performance, it's pretty solid and fluid everywhere. Gaming, browsing, about everything you can do on it will be mostly fluid without lag. As of now (in canada, at least), this is one of the best device you can get.
As for bugs, as I told you, nothing major. GPS, wifi, LTE, storage, everything (for me) works pretty good.
Ok thank you very much

Never realized xda member, themer, developer evil1art isn't listed as a developer here on xda. I'm always on tapatalk so I never noticed his avatar info.... till now.
How the funk isn't he a recognized developer? Argh!! Rally the troops.
** Petition sent to one Kenny Glass, for a prompt developer recognition of one evil1art**
I've used evil1art's ROMs spanning three devices and I always use his ROMs the most by FAR! I'm a flash-aholic and evil1art has me addicted to his crack. No matter which ROM I try I find myself back on a Wicked ROM.
Evil1art is a developer in my eyes. Let's show him our support and get him officially recognized by XDA. PM your local moderator. It takes 60 seconds. Politely tell them how much you love evil1art's ROMs.
Thanks

MOD EDIT: See Venum's closing post! Also spend 2 seconds and google Recognized Developer XDA application before wasting everyone's time on a petition
Its great to support your xda developers, all he has to do is follow the application process with his development work once they open the app process again. Im sure hes well aware and has without question put the work in to be accepted, but xda doesnt exactly have a petition process. Its up to the developer to follow the proper procedures to have their xda status changed.

How is this even possible??? The man's thread on the s3 has over a million views! A MILLION!!! This device hasn't been out that long and it's clear that his wicked rom is the #1 rom on this phone (based on # of downloads and views in his thread at least, subjective I know). If anybody deserves to be a recognized developer it's evil.

Well to be corrected, he was a recognize themer, not developer (always pertain him as a recognize developer in my head regardless)
So are you petitioning for him to get his old title back or a new title?
As a dev

Thanx bro!
But dont waste your time
Xda removed my RT title for unjust reasons and after I appealed it they still gave no reason! I doubt I will contiue to upload work to a website that doesnt appreciate the 100,000 plus downloads, over 1,000,000 views on 1 rom and all the free work I post here.
My profile shows 1 infraction they are saying 2? Gave no reason for the second one so who knows. I was called every name in the book and all I said was I hope they choke, thats it! I see devs do a hell of alot more vulgar things on here!
So follow me on twitter and fb because my links maybe getting pulled!

I support evil as a dev, total awesomness comes from this guy, and thanks to the OP for making this thread, I was considering this myself but I didn't know all the facts, so I didn't want to ask for forgivness later. Sadly, if evil pulls his links, I don't have fb or twitter so I don't have that access. I am subscribed to this thread now to stay current and give all of my support to evil and his work. :good:
When I got my S4 I was a little worried about the available ROM's but evil has put together something really nice and has something for everyone.
He has several things in his ROM's that I had never seen before and they all work as they were intended. I have installed several ROM's over several devices. It would be a very good thing to see evil get RD status, his work is amazing.

Yeah I've always laughed at that title too. @evil1art runs the galaxy devices. Wicked ROM is always the most used, mist stable, has the most views and has a very active thread. Even better the thread activity is almost never bug related. XDA is weird. A lot of very contributive members have been denied RC status even. Mods are getting crazy here. Its a development site for developers to develop and share. If you are developing, and sharing, who is to say that a person is not a developer. Whatever. Keep me posted Nick if you start posting elsewhere.
