Develop Bugs

New users are not allowed to help... :( ???

I have just registered because I wanted to help somebody with one question in a development forum. After registering, I realized that I'm not allowed to post in the development forums until I post 10 times in the general forum because this forum is only for expert users. I cannot catch the connection between new user and development expertise...
Well, no matter. If the help and collaboration is not wanted, I'll let the user's question unanswered.
I will just continue only reading and not participating...
Bye...

your thread title describes it well mate.. new users should help other users in XDA with 10 valuable/useful posts to get into development forum...so to help in dev section help other new users who are new not just to xda but also android..
PS: Please Do read link to New user? in my signature to know more.. and this thread is getting closed too.. as you should read first then post/ open thread..

^
Agree. there is a really good reason for the 10 post rule. i forgot.

That question should have never been in the development forum in the first place, it should have been in Q&A if available or general if not. You could also PM the user, rather than spamming maybe?

This ^^^^. The question shouldn't be asked in a development forum, that is what q&a is for... development is for development, not questions... not even a question about the rom/kernel should be in development... only development related things... as one of my fav devs say, logcat or gtfo of development forums...

Looks like it's been deleted.
Forum search engine points to the same error message when looking for No7102 missing thread.
And I posted a few messages in that thread... my post count has been decreased since it disappeared ...

WTF, my question also? Why would it get deleted? Mods - explain!
I thought maybe a new N7102 group got started, but don't see it.

It was deleted in error. In future can you report things like this via PM to moderators please as we (Samsung International Phone's Moderation Team) have only 4 active members to cover the hole of none US Samsung phones so we don't tend to browse specific forums for questions aimed at moderators.
Also I do not particularly like the tone of some of the posts here, it comes across very demanding like "Mods, you explain this NAOOO!!!". I think you'll find one of the forum rules is never post in a demanding self-entitled manner.
Lastly, questions go in the Q&A forum.
Thread closed.

please port a rom

please port some kind of rom

Please unlock the bootloader, then.

Boot loader doesn't need to be unlocked for a port. According to thecubed that is. :thumbup:
I will be starting to learn how to make Roms tomorrow.

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.

Whoa let's not turn this into a mod hating thread man. I completely agree with the both of you though. It can definitely get frustrating though. I was just saying to the other guy that said the op needs yo learn how to read. I just that part was uncalled for.

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....

this forum is a disaster and not because of misplaced posts, in fact, just the opposite. we have 12 ****ing mods for this forum, 12.
that's prolly more than peeps posting in here. and they are the ones that **** up the forum moving threads around almost willy nilly.
i ask what peeps are using their qbutton for in the gen forum, that thread got moved to help. umm wtf.
get rid of 11 of the 12 mods and teach the one remaining about which threads go where.

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.

I'm referring to the five recently locked topics in the general section... So, if not many, certainly more than a few.

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.

Tbh he is correct it would be much better if you put all the download links in th OP so they are easier to find, all you are doing is creating a huge thread with only your posts in and no one will bother reading throught them all

Hello @snifing
In regards to your comment above to the Xda Moderator. You can't delete any post, but you can remove the content of that post. And from what I can see is exactly what you did here. Next time your going to make a thread with a big list of apks, please put them all in the first post for everyone to find them. Not make 17 post for all 17 apks. Makes no sense and just creates way way to much clutter! Look below at how it would look in one post...

Apks
App-1
App-2
App-3
App-4
App-5
And so...
And please have a look at the rule below.
5. Create a thread or post a message only once.
As a large forum, we don't need unnecessary clutter. You're free to edit your message as you like, so if you do not receive an answer, revisit your message and see if you can describe your problem better. Not everyone is online at the same time so it might take a while before you receive an answer.
