Develop Bugs

Mods-AOSP/Sense sub-forums possible?

Mods,
I think that the greater part of the XDA community would agree that with the release of Gingerbread and the recent 3.70 OTA we are going to be seeing a lot of clutter in the forums specifically the development forums. I myself have found that it is getting harder and harder each day to sort through all of the new stuff that the developers are putting out there for us. Would it be possible to have sub-forums in the development forum dedicated to AOSP Roms/kernels, another sub-forum for Sense Roms/kernels, and another sub-forum for modifications and hacks?
I feel like this would give the community a better opportunity at seeing everything that these developers put all their hard work into and would eliminate the clutter in the forum. Just a suggestion.

I agree with what you posted, but do not agree where you posted it. I never mention "wrong section" as some of the members tend to say it more than anything else, but i believe there is a suggestion sub-forum to this site.

+1 to this!

I like this idea......

this is an excellent idea

I like this.

+1 This should be a must!

I hate u, that shoulda been my idea LOL
Seriously tho, this is a great suggestion.
+1

Hopefully this catches one of the mods eyes and we can get something in motion here. It's just been overwhelming lately scrolling through the development forum and trying to stay up to date on everything thats new. I know that it isn't very likely to happen, but to further organize things not only would a section dedicated to AOSP and sense Roms be beneficial, but also a sub-forum for there respective kernels.
Or maybe even a sticky with an alphabetical list with links to the rom threads?

Would be nice

+1 this would be a great idea!!!!!!!!!!

So how can we get this thing set into motion?

Buddies now.

Is it possible for one of the talented Rom devs to coorporate the old buddies now into touchwiz 4.0. the old one was an scrollable widget and the new is just a linked picture. Below is a picture of how the old buddies now looked. Much better with status up date. It had the works.
I can PM a picture of the old one if needed because I am a newbie and not allowed to post pictures yet.

Thanks for developing this

There is a thread about this in general with an apk attached. I have not tested it myself, but it's there if you want to try it.

Thanks but I have tried that already. When you Install, it doesn't change. Thats why I am requesting this in the Development section. The old buddies now was much better.

You don't make requests in the development section. This is a section for stuff that has been developed not requests. Just letting u know.

Yes I hope on of the Devs find a way to add the old buddies now to touchwiz 4.0.
Can a moderator move this thread to the theme section. Sorry once again for posting this in the development section.

So glad to see a post in development that doesn't have 300 flamerz in it, hope this means xda is getting a little bit better

I initially was going to post this in the Q&A section but opted not to for I didn't want to catch flack.This actually is about my questions and answers I got to them.I want to salute STeROL and John Corleone.they both helped me with my issues and guided me to learning something new instead of the normal read threads.threads are great but actual conversation while dealing with a learning issue goes a long way...we'll thank you for your help.

Don't know the other guy, personally, but JC is never anything but knowledgeable and seriously helpful.
Not surprised about Sterol though. This section of XDA has some of the best members I have found yet. No. Joke.

Anyone else have a deep emotional connection over this?

No.

really wasn't no need to make a thread about this, you could have shared your emotions and opinion in the thread located in the app and themes this is a waste of useless thread

He's just making some conversation, what's the big deal? I think it looks pretty sick as well. And I applaud you for making a thread to express your opinion.

I don't want to clutter the thread with conversation so that people who have potential problems can find their answer easier.
Why you gotta be so negative?

yeah i love it too but shoulda went in that thread

There's no problem with the thread, quit complaining. This was posted in general discussion and that's exactly what it is. He's just excited over a good looking app, there's nothing wrong with that, leave him alone.
I for one haven't seen it yet and am still using the normal MMS app for ICS (It's all white :/) I'll be sure to check this one out soon

Spoiled Chidren Ruining XDA

I have noticed a rash of rude and uncalled for comments lately. Here is a little advice for noobs.
Trolling or Fishing on a Devs thread is childish. How old are you? 12? They take their spare time to develop roms, mods, hacks etc. and give them to us for free. Making comments such as "This rom sucks" is just wrong. If you do not like the rom, don't use it. Respect is earned on this site.
When needing help, please search for the answer first. If you cannot find a good enough explanation, then ask the question politely. Include as much information as possible. Phone code name, Hboot version, S-On or S-Off, What rom you are using etc. I know some people will tag it at the bottom but put it in the description of the question as well. It is hard enough to help someone without having to figure out what kind of phone they have too. Be polite. Hit the thanks button. It is free and does not hurt at all. Remember that XDA is a developers site. They invited you here to share their work with you freely. Senior members help a lot of people on a daily basis and you should keep in mind that they get tired of answering the same question or fixing the same problem. Being polite and keeping your cool will get them to help you a lot faster and things will go alot smoother.
Thanks,
Venomtester

Sheesh, not another one of these threads. The noobs you're talking about create problems because they never read before posting and complaining, thus they won't read this thread.

See sig line.

we do get alot of these threads actually. we should make a "thread of shame" but make sure it is made a sticky.
since im ocpd i go through every single evita thread every couple months. =) sometimes i bump old things.
edit: decided to go through One X Android Development just now
i like a clean house
i wish i was a forum mod, cause i see tons of threads that need to be moved and/or locked or both, like the threads that needed to be moved in the dev sections that were just closed but never moved, or were moved but still say "Moved: " in original posted forum.
was this Xperia Z rom port please! not moved but closed in case a dev would see it and want to port it?
why do some threads say "Moved: " but still show up in it's original location? back when the new rules of threads with no downloads can't be in dev section many of those seem show up as "Moved: " which seems beneficial as they originally hinted at dev usage but didn't exactly conform to the rules of that section so seeing them in both places might be helpful?

XDA is just a subset of society.
In society, there are nice people, not so nice people, smart folk, idiots etc.
There will always be a mix of all types here, and while venting about noobs probably makes you feel a little better for a short time, the fact is it isn't going to change a thing.
My advice is just accept that it is how it is. Maybe have another beer and everything will seem just that little bit better.

I never said kids were ruining xda. I'm talking about childish behavior. Kinda like what we are doing now. Everybody drinking and smoking. Cats and dogs living together. Just plain craziness.
