It is just a way to protect the Development section from bull**** posts like this. Just participate in Q&A or post in General in the Rumor thread. You can get 10 posts in 10 minutes there.

You dont have to start new threads to meet that requirement but since this is already here just keep posting in here to meet that requirement. What rom do you plan or are running?

Unfortunately, it's because of posts like this that this rule was put in place.
I shudder to think what useless crap you wish to flood the Development section with.

It can be frustrating for those who generally browse and only post after not finding the right question answer combo. But, that is not the norm.

That is what Q&A section is for. Then after getting the question answered the user gains knowledge they can pass on. The 10 posts are easily reached that way.

I'm in the same boat. I use and test a bunch of different roms, but can never report my bugs or ask ROM specific questions in the dev threads. Usually I can find my answer by searching, but that's not always the case. I guess I'm more of a watcher than an active participant at this point.

Just post a legitimate question in Q&A and respond with thank you's and what is the best way to do that's and you will hit 10 posts in less than a day. And then you are good to go. People using the ROMs that have answers read Q&A too.

There was a link in the miui thread for the newer version at 4shared....I was wondring why it was only 4kb wehn I downloaded it but at the 4shared site it said it was 90 sumthing mb...BUT....I came back later nd download it...

Like all things new people have to suffer for past people abusing or screwing something up. It is a protection from Spammers and people just popping on, saying something stupid and they're gone. It is only for the development section where posts should be more professional and intelligent. 10 posts are nothing. But it is a small safety. Perhaps if the OP was worded more professionally the flaming would not have started.

If you've been reading the threads (which I'm sure you have), you'll find the Epic community is the most helpful, most welcoming one around. Trust me, I work on the Evo 4G as well and the Epic boards are much more tight-knit.
Having said that- did you get the answer to the MIUI issue? Sounds like it was just a bad download...

Hey guys, I recently got a S2x. It's been great, however I've run into a problem today..
I tend to disable 3G/data to save battery and stay on EDGE however this afternoon after I turned on 3G again, my phone just doesn't connect back onto 3G and is stuck on EDGE..
Does anyone have a problems like this?
Wrong forum bud flaming starts soon... nd for data? I say try rebooting then changing it to WCDMA ONLY then if it catches 3G then it should work then switch bsck

Yes wrong place to ask...but before dismissing you away....
Try turning airplane mode on instead, and forget about that data stuff. You shouldn't be having apps that are hungry for updating all the time anyway.
Sorry about wrong forum..
Anyone has any idea though?.. It was worrking perfectly fine until this afternoon when i switched on data again..
No one help him/her.
OP, I don't know what you think of these forums, but rules are to be respected and followed. This is such a basic question that really needs to be in the Q/A section. Period. This section is for development work only, even says so in the title.
It would have been better if you searched for your question, but you didn't even look for the appropriate forum.
/thread end.

Hey its okay you made a mistake dont worry about it. Listen if you look at the top of the development fourm where you posted this it tells you who the moderators are. pm one of them and ask them to move this thread to the q&a fourm. People here are a little touchy when it comes to posting in the wrong fourm because well you know they are perfect and dont make mistakes.
*NOOB FORUM FOR SGS3*
Xda community,
I decided to start this thread to help some newcomers along. When I was a NOOB, I had a lot of questions. I couldn't find the appropriate place to ask the questions, I didn't know how to use the forum tools, I didn't know which questions were good questions, I was worried about getting bashed by some senior members, and I became discouraged. Feel free to ask any questions in here. You will not get flamed for asking any legitimate question. I won't hold your hand.. If you have a question that is all over the Internet, I'll point you in the right direction and tell you how I found that information.
YOU KNOW YOU'RE A NOOB IF..
- You are new to rooting
- You are new to flashing roms
- New to adb, fast boot, drivers, bootloaders
- You don't understand the terminology
- You don't know the difference between a rom and a kernel
- You don't know how to use XDA forums
- You can't explain what rooting is and what it does
- Many more..you get the point

#1 This thread has zero development in it. I would like it to be in the development section. I have a strong feeling that it would be moved quicker than I can type the 1st post. If you can help get it moved, more power to you
#2 Noobs can't find their phone on here...let alone know what development is..lol
#3 37% of people polled think that Mitt Romney was responsible for the death of Osama Bin Laden. 41% couldn't name our vice president
POINT BEING: Let's not give the general public undue credit
I'm trying to keep the crap out of threads where I want to read about actual development

Long story short my friend really loves the GS3 but he is on virgin mobile and says if i can flash my phone to work on virgin he will buy me a note 2 so I need to know if its possible and if so how hard is it? I really appreciate all input.
Wrong thread should be in the QA u would get better answers haha

I appreciate your optimism and generally good attitude. However, juniors who don't read the rules and have a general disregard for the organization and structure of this community are a detriment. They create extra work for moderators who volunteer their time and make finding information substantially more difficult for users of the site.
If memory serves me well, one of the rules is not to ask for development or etas, though it's been a while since I've peeked at them. Another is certainly posting in the correct forum - which this is not.
I'm going to be blunt, I don't think junior members should be allowed to post in the development sections. Moderators should have the ability to upgrade to a regular member at any time if they see a junior acting accordingly. Likewise, if you post in wrong sections and then abandon the section without reporting your post to a moderator to be closed along with an apology, you should be demoted to a junior for some time. This would prevent a cluttered mess to have to sift through.
It's bad enough we have a severe lack of development due to exclusivity and bootloader issues without the added stress of clutter. I'm not hating on the Op but it sure is disrespectful and I'm sure most will agree with me that it isn't appreciated or beneficial by anyone.

2nd.... noobs, juniors, seniors or moderators we are all on a learning curve and should respect all with patience. Everyone has asked a dumb question, a question that might have already been answered etc. I have and I can only assume all the moderators and or senior members have done the same. gentle reminder rather than coming down on members should be at hand. chill...... this should be an enjoyable situation for all....

Also, many topics are directed to the big "discuss" thread. (the one that was started before this forum even existed, with a ton of useless junk) Why make people go through that? It's convenient to only read threads of interest...
And why mess with threads that have been dead for days?

No, they are directed to be posted in general or Q&A. That's not difficult at all. This post has no place in the development section, period. It's not hard to read the rules and post in proper sections.
This isn't a debate, this is in the wrong section. Development goes in development. Questions in Q&A. Accessories in accessories. Everything else falls in general.

Didn't see those until you mentioned it. That seems ridiculous to me too. In fact I've never seen something like that done in other phone forums. I can imagine it being done for duplicate threads but forcing us to use s single thread seems ridiculous.

First OP Thread Closed & Moved out of the Development Section I will ask you to read the Forum Rules on Posting.
The Moderation Team is made of volunteers and they are Members just like you, if you see threads and or posts out of place...report them, vice posting in this manner.
The Moderation Team can not be in all threads,...again if you find threads that need addressing report it, we rely on Members to point out issues/violations.
Thank You.
