Just a friendly clarification... it's not a device dedicated area that makes the amount of threads happen, it's the amount of threads that makes the device dedicated area happen.

Good Luck!

[About XDA developers] sevenr33:
Certainly it's not 2 or 3 threads with a lot of pages with everything mixed up that will make users want to discuss or looks up to anything in this forum, and certainly you don't want people cluttering the general area with random Posts about the m2. There is a Russian forum, an Italian forum, a Spanish forum and a Greek forum all with dedicated areas to this phone but with the language barrier problem, what's the problem with xda?

---------- Post added at 10:33 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:29 PM ----------

So from what I am understanding you say if I create threads with the existing custom Roms and if they get 2 or 3 pages of answers we get a a device dedicated area?
[About XDA developers] Droidriven:
No, each new thread would have to be a new ROM, recovery, kernel or some other mod specifically for that device. I said "threads involving development" as in actual development, not just discussion of development or discussion of already existing development. It requires more threads of NEW development, in other words, you and other users of your device need to get started actually building new stuff for the device.

And I didn't say you would definitely get a forum after getting that many new developments for the device, I said that the Admin/Mod team requires at least that as a minimum requirement for consideration, there are other factors involved also, such as how much of new development is Original development and how much is development based on other work that has already been done or they'll look at how many active members own the device. There are no specific direct "black and white" guaranteed criteria for a device to get a forum. They consider things like whether it's worth devoting time, resources and server space to a new device forum, they don't just willy nilly create forums for every device that is made, only the devices that have many users and lots of ongoing development.

[About XDA developers] Ibuprophen:
I'll have to +1 on this but, since it was just released last month (April 2018), it may take a little time for developments and such to be released for this specific device.

Also as an FYI... This specific device is the "Xiaomi Mi A2 (Mi 6X)" because it's known only in China as the Xiaomi Mi 6x and elsewhere it's known as the "Xiaomi Mi A2".

So my +1 would be for the "Xiaomi Mi A2 (Mi 6X)"! :)

Good point. What is the measure used? We have stuff scattered through the honor 7x forums because we can use a lot of their stuff. Our phone is very similar to the international version of the Honor 7x, we have treble support. There are hacked up versions of Twrp going around and roms being modified to work with our device... Pretty much all the honor 7x devs would be able to work on the device knowing the differences, etc.

Hi,ET Admins And Moderators, At the moment we have couple of ROMs and basic developments stuffs for Galaxy J2 Series.Like we got J2 2015(Exynos & Spreadtrum--> J200H),J2 Pro 2016 And J2 Prime.So we are having some problem out there.The people always comes to wrong thread and ask if that's comfortable for their devices.It maybe causes for two reasons-->

1. They don't read OPs and 2.There's no section separated for each device.So please make development section for each models inside this forum-->https://xdaforums.com/galaxy-j2
[About XDA developers] Ibuprophen:
I understand what your stating...

This is an example of when devices gets released quicker than the support/developments do and over time those begin to catch up with the devices individually resulting in a type of "Melting Pot" for individual variants.

You really can't blame or point to the ET Administrators I believe are only [MENTION=278202]the_scotsman[/MENTION] & [MENTION=532082]O_G[/MENTION]. I do believe that [MENTION=335322]MikeChannon[/MENTION] also gives a hand when necessary.

With all the devices that need ET's as well as those that have ET's on the forum, I can only imagine how much work is involved in those areas of responsibility. This is not to mention that when new Device Dedicated areas are created, the work that's involved with creating and then moving each individual thread to their prospective locations.

I'm not envious of what they're responsibilities are since I've been in their shoes when I was one of the Administrators for a U.S. Military Government Forum before I had retired.

A final thought... I'm not stating All OP Dev's but, sometimes the OP Dev's for many threads (the typical as well as the DevDB ones) doesn't really Title them very well and/or tag them very well either. They really should look at a thread as a Noob themselves and think about the Title, Tags, OP info, etc... as a noob as well.

This is just my Support for what you're asking and my Opinion/Suggestion regarding it as well.

I do wish you the best of luck my friend! :)

I personally don't even know if this type of request would belong here since, in a way, the new devices dedicated area already exists and just needs a little TLC to create some further areas within it to break it down a bit more.

I'm just hoping that one of those Administrators I had called out on my last post could provide a little feedback, guidance as well as a "Yay or Nay" vote for this request.

[About XDA developers] MikeChannon:
This is a difficult one. We could add sub forums for development but there seem to be so many versions and we could end up with sub forums with maybe only one or no threads in it. Looking at the current development forum there seems to be 4 pages of threads which is not huge. I think for now Developers need to specify clearly in the title AND in post one what models their ROM is for. It would be just as confusing if we add only a couple of sub forums and leave out certain models but with only 4 pages of threads it seems wasteful to divide existing threads into 5 or 6 development forums.

I could be persuaded otherwise if someone came up with a clear sensible plan and lists of existing threads and what new sub forum they would go into.

What might further complicate matters would be if some ROMs fit different models.

It's not like that actually.World got digital.People are clever.They now use Telegram more than XDA.But I recommend everone out there in group to aatay connected with XDA,if they'd listen to us the threads would've grown bigger with alots of pages.Got it now? The the main reason behind it.

and about fitting to other models,yeah if we want we can fit it to other devices and if you see again in the forum.You'll see two roms "DNA Zero ROMs" which are the same rom for different devices,one is for J2 2015 another for J2 2016.So isn't that matters?

Anyway,Hope I made some clear statement.
[About XDA developers] Ibuprophen:
I feel that this is a difficult area/situation regarding the J2...

Take a look at the Samsung Galaxy S5 area. This device has device areas for their prospective network providers and also a separate area for the device in general that's broken up into Chipsets, Unified, Non Unified, etc...

Breaking up a device area can easily (unintentionally) get very confusing to many members not always knowing where to go.

This is probably why [MENTION=335322]MikeChannon[/MENTION] had asked for a good suggested solution in order to prevent any confusions regarding architecture, Chipsets, unified, etc...

I even get taken back by locating something specific for some device sub areas... :eek:

[About XDA developers] ashyx:
As a developer and contributor to several of these devices, I believe all that is required is as you've suggested above.

Subforums based on device release year.

That's a clear go to for any device, no need imo to split models as they are usually the same device spec.

I always clearly list the device model in the OP and the thread title.

I for one do not want to have to post my development in multiple sub forums when in fact the devices specs are exactly the same.

For example it's easier for me to post:

TWRP recovery for the Samsung Galaxy J2 Grand prime plus SM-G532F/G/M/DS - Mediatek MT6737T

rather than post the same thing in several subforums its easier to contain it in one thread.

If I had to do that I probably just wouldn't bother.

J2 Prime = G532F/M/G etc --> Idk [MENTION=4899305]ashyx[/MENTION] knows

[About XDA developers] ashyx:
It doesn't matter about the device difference for the 2016 models as long as the distinction is made in the thread and title.

There are far too many variations to start splitting subforums into subforums.

There are plenty of forums like this and it works fine.
