Hi,
I think it would be really nice to have a ability to add the device you own to your profile. In this way it would be clear what everyone is using (as now often we don't even know when a dev moves on to another device), and we would have a history for each user owned devices and awesome stats showing how many users own (and how many previously owned) particular phone in each phone's section. I'am surprised something like this wasn't even implemented yet

The first part of your idea has been available for a while now.
Go into your control panel>>edit details>> 3rd option down devices "Enter the devices that you're currently using"
Once entered it will show at the bottom of your profile page and under your avatar in the more info.

I wasn't sure where to post this ,so sorry if i'm in the wrong place, but I also didn't want to start a whole new thread for this.
I can't seem to find my s3 in the device options,
Can some moderator please add it to the optional devices ?
I'm talking about the Samsung Galaxy S III I9305 LTE
Thanx

Hi all
A few of us Moderators have been getting PM's that in my case have not been dealt with due to the fact I am not always on the board.
All of us do this for free and in our spare time, and over time we move on, get new toys, or even go back to a real life without a keyboard under our fingers.
Please try to understand that some of us are Bias (I admit to it I have a BA and am not intrested in many of the other sections).
Thus I for one do not read all posts and all sections, I feel this is true for others, like I said I feel this.
We all however try to check the trash and keep the news clean.
For this reason we need a form of communication that is not based on a person but directed to a group and in this case its the Moderators and Admins.
It is with that motivation in mind that I have opened this thread and made it sticky in the hope that you are able to post issues that you think that at least one of us should deal with.
Please note that this board does not tolerate cracks, serials, pirated versions or the posting of software that should have been aquired by legal means and we will remove (delete) them when found. Please help us keep this site clean by posting links of that sort in this tread as well as telling us if you have found anything on the ftp site.
Please use this thread, use and edit the wiki and remember this board would not be as great as it is without YOU.
Thanks for your support.

Thanks MDAIIIUser.
And remember, mods aren't Gods, despite us all being flaxen hair'd Adoni.
We can't create new Forums, change the Welcome page or Index page, or supply you with new flags or avatars. But ask anyway, it helps us put pressure on the Admis, who are the true Smooth Operators of this board.

Thanks guys!
Hi Guys,
Thanks for postings this.
We (admins) are behind you (though we also aren't gods )

redirection from www.xda-developers.com still pointed to:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/front_page.php
link above is not valid anymore
I guess, it should be pointed to:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/index.php
nothing major, just easier that way
Think that is correct that is the main page, the forum is a sub element which you can get to from the main page. If you just want the forum then bookmark it.
Link above worked for me
[req] mobile forum theme
Let me first thank you for moving to a much better forum application than phpBB.
I hope one day we can have access to a mobile friendly theme from owr phone. If implemented, I would also like to request that the theme option be stored in cookies rather in the database so we wouldn't have to enter User CP and change the theme every time we log in from our mobile or desktop.
thanks!
Charmer Wiki locked, someone have a check on that please. Thanks
checked it,
opened, edit, saved and removed edit fine
Try on another different user account? Look at my screen shot. The Page-Info gives me the LOCKED status. And, I only see the View-Source not the normal Edit button. Something wrong?
Is it possible to regain the option: view your posts? I liked it but can't find it now anymore.
go User CP -> Find all your posts.
I didn't notice, thanks!

Just wondering, with the recent spamfest that seems to be taking place is there any pattern developing in the IPs used that would allow an IP ban to be placed? or are they using anon proxies? I know from my own experience as an admin on another forum they can be a pain, but they really seem to be targetting this place.... A friend of mine is a developer for vb and if there is anything that could be of use I can ask him if he would be able to create a plugin to help you block it.
In many ways this is one of the best sites I have seen (apart from the one I am an admin on of course, we all take pride in the sites we run heh) and I would like to assist in any way to stop any of the users being taken in by spammers like that. (yes, I know most of the users here are smart enough not to fall for it lol) Certainly it's one of the most informative on the HTC devices.
I don't see Cingular in the drop-down list for profiles.... found this a bit odd....

Seems I got overlooked....
It's bugging me that I have to show AT&T as my carrier, as apparently carrier isn't an optional field, and Cingular isn't available in the drop down menu....
yeah, I'd be ashamed to show AT&T as my carrier also!!!
How do I edit my avatar/signature, there are no options anywhere in my profile to do this anymore, I can edit my country/provider etc. but even my old sig I can only view not edit
I would also like to know
I love this community. From teh early days of flashing my Touch Pro 2 I have been here lurking would love to get involved more. How do we change our signatures? How do we add our phones to our signatures with os versions etc for easy reference?
Many thanks,
it's in user control panel (USER CP navigation link)
by default it is also under quick links in the navigation bar (assuming you're using a computer)
it's so obvious that it is hard to see
Well maybe it's obvious to you but it wasn't to me and I have been on many phpbb and invision boards (and even some other boards using other forum software) and I never had to search so much, it's especially confusing since when you click on your user name you can edit most of your profile, just not avatar or sig

Not being able to find that setting which I agree is obscure is fine, but not being able to read the stick at the top of this very forum isn't:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1636804
Why can I not view recent visitors in my own profile? Setting is set to everyone.
And why is the frown smilie the first on the list?
Edit
Forget about frown smilie being first i normally do quick reply
Really, no one has any idea about this?
Moved to About XDA.
I think it's because you haven't had many profile views yet, because I'm able to view your recent visitors fine.
At the moment, it's showing that you have 20 page views and my username is the only one showing at the moment.

Is it definitely set to "Everyone"?
If so, try switching to a different option, saving the changes and then change back again.

Switched all options to friends only then back to everyone. Even logged out an cleared cache, still dont work for me.
I think there's a bug in NomadSpin's profile. There are no other sections visible underneath "Mini Statistics", not even empty ones, which I don't see on anyone else's profile. I would try the "I want to report a technical problem with XDA Forums or Portal" form to be found here. Hope this helps.
Dont know if this might have anything at all to do with it but when I originally created this account I entered my email as @google.com rather than @gmail.com (was a long day). Kinda forget how I fixed that, couldnt validate obviously so came back and changed it somehow. (its been another long day)

That shouldn't affect it... I don't see anything untoward on your profile though, so I'm not sure what's wrong...
I don't leave a trail on profiles I visit though - has anyone other than kid visited the profile?
When I visited it yesterday the section "Recent Visitors" wasn't there at all, but now it is and I see myself as the "last 1 visitor" and "This page has had 26 visits".

I could be mistaken, but your looking at your own profile to get to recent visitors maybe? That triggers that you was most recent to view.
Sent From My HTC Evo 3D Using TapaTalk 2
No, I'm looking at NomadSpin's profile (now stands at 32 visitors with the last 3 named). If I visit my own profile I don't show as a visitor.
I can see the last 4 visitors out of 33 somebody musta fixed it. Thank you who ever you are
Looks like i may have spoken to soon. Now have 37 visitors an can stil only view the last 4, which appears to be the same 4 as before
When I or a number of mods view your profile, it won't be logged, as we chose to disable the "mark" from being left
It's like that given you posted in about xda, that's where most of the views are coming from
I left my mark!

Nothing but mini statistics is visible similar to Nomad's.
I have 2 Questions about Quoteaions/Mentions and those new functions.
1st can you make it work that the notification disappears itself when you have read the concerning thread?
2nd is there a way to turn off mentions coming from oneself?
I often write things like @New Users, and I often use the @ sign as a shortenning for at + the following space, which often results in unwanted mentions, is there a way around that?

To prevent unwanted mentions from your side, grow habit of putting up a space in @ & the user. ie. @ New User / @ op etc.
For further suggestions and queries see this threadhttp://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2240142
And your suggestions have been discussed there, may be they are working on a fix.

Oh, I didn't know that. Today was the first time I tried it and it worked fine.
I am thinking of getting this phone. Can anyone tell if the device works OK with k9-mail? I read that many mediatek devices stop external apps...
can anyone confirm if whatsapp notifications works OK?
https://dontkillmyapp.com/
Hey brother, I have the phone and have been using it for some months now. It does limit the background apps, but contrary to Xiaomi and other chinese brands, it's really easy to stop the phone from doing so. There's a configuration on the device's settings called Performance Optimization that you can use to limit or unlimit app background activity. You also have the option to completely deactivate the feature and let the apps run on the background at will. Here are some screenshots that I took to better show what I'm talking about (the apps are censored for security/privacy reasons)

Oh yeah, I saw this post while navigating the forums. Thought of answering it, but I figured it was better to do it here since this is a specific thread for this question. Anyway, you're welcome.
