I'm guessing you're trying to post in a development section, which requires you to have at least 10 *useful* posts.

Questions do not belong there. If your device has a dedicated forum, ask your question in the Q&A subforum (or General if that doesn't exist.) Otherwise, ask it in the Android Q&A section.
[About XDA developers] mdwh:
I'm a new user, and can't post to forum "Windows 8 General" ( http://xdaforums.com/windows-8-rt/general ) ("you do not have permission to access this page"). I realise there's the rule for 10 posts, but this seemed odd as it doesn't seem to be a development-related forum? I don't have this message when I try to post to "Android General" and "Windows RT General".

Thanks.

Annoying ad

During the last two weeks, there's been an exceedingly annoying ad on the forums page which seriously interferes with page functionality. The visit to any forum page starts with a popup mesage saying:

[B]The page at http://main.vodonet.net says:[/B]

Čestitamo!

Ali ste slovenski dobitnik dneva 10.2.2014?

Ponudba poteče danes ob 23:59.

After that any action that would normally be caried out, such as replying to posts or chaging thread pages popup an additional dialog asking if I'm sure I want to exit that page.

I don't have any ad-blockers installed.

I understand these ads help fund XDA and I do sometimes click them for just the purpouse, and additionally I bought your Android XDA HD app. Could you please make this particular ad go away for me, please?

Hello fellow Mod's and Dev's! First I want to apologize, I know this is not the place for this but I have run into an issue that I have not been able to fix. Ive tried asking a ton of ppl and posting in a bunch of forums. This forum may be my last hope lol!

I ran into an issue in my account I cannot seem to fix. I recently added my Pay Pal email to my account. After doing so, when I am in a thread, I no longer have the option for quick reply. Also when I reply to a topic it asks me for an Image Verification every time. I have asked around but no one seems to have ever had this issue. Any help would be great, or maybe someone you know might have the answer?

The request I have for the admins is that they watch the thread here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1660354 slightly more closely, as I was referred there by someone on this thread to post there instead of here, and after posting there I have gotten no response after almost a week, and as of yet I know of no recent post there made by any other member recently. If an active thread is for requests, it should actually periodically be looked at by the creators or those who are in charge of it.

This is not an intentional flame, merely a request that any references actually be somewhat reliable in what they reference

Hi dreamwave,

The admins who decide which new forums to add to XDA do actually look through that thread and will make additions as per the requests when it is relevant (i.e. meets their criteria).

Understandably, as the admins have a lot of issues to deal with, they'll hardly have the time to respond to requests in that thread.

[About XDA developers] Robbie P:
I noticed recently a few Devs who are unhappy with other so-called 'devs' who use another Dev's ROM (or stock) as a base and just add an app or two, a theme, or just some xposed modules, then post the ROM in the development section of their device. Would it make sense to have 3 development sections for popular devices, original, source compiled and modified? I know it could create some conflicts as to where a rom is posted, but it would make a lot of serious developers a bit happier and users would be able to see at a glance how much work has gone into building a ROM.
[About XDA developers] Jonny:
Rule 12 - if devs don't like it, they don't need to give permission for their work to be used as a base. If they give permission they give permission and have pretty much no say from there.

If they didn't give permission and other users use their work anyway then they can contact the Forum-Specific Moderators for that device forum through the report system.

As for modified ROM's going in development. Pure stock ROM's shouldn't go in development but as soon as it is changed from stock then it goes into development as some so called "development" work has gone into it.

Original development is meant for new material (eg PA as they brought in HALO) and quite frankly a lot of what is in there shouldn't be there but that's a rant for another time ;)
[About XDA developers] Robbie P:
Thanks, yeah i realise that, i just don't like to see disgruntled Devs. Just thought that Development section could be subdivided into two groups, one with little modifications and one with big modifications is all. Not sure how easy that would be in practice, might have to be considered on a device by device basis.

[About XDA developers] dreamwave:
Could you create a overarching forum for the galaxy s3 that would encompass all carriers? There are some things that apply regardless of network or carrier, like themes that are for that screen size, or things that work on a specific processor that they all possess.
[About XDA developers] Jonny:
Most themes work either by replacing the original apk's with new modified ones or if they use the vrtheme engine they replace the actual changed resource files. On carrier specific versions of stock ROM's replacing an apk with a different one could cause errors due to different resource ID's and other issues - the same applies with vrtheme engine if replacing anything other than just staight png images (ie replacing the layouts, xml prefs, values xml etc).

For this reason its better to keep them separate. Additionally, if we merged for example the general forums into one forum and left the Android Development forums for the different carriers alone, users of those different carriers will complain that they don't have their own general forum. Also with several different carriers using the same general forum it gets messy and would increase the workload of whichever moderator team the device fell under.

There would also be more end user confusion when it came to flashing things like stock firmwares as users might just assume they can flash something without reading that its actually for a specific carrier and therefore would brick their phone (yes, it has happened before).

[About XDA developers] ParExcellence:
I'm really disappointed there.

In the development forums one forum member has a technical question, and I would like to help him, but I have to reach 10 post in topics that I'm totally not interested. If I write in topics like "what is your SSID" my messages are deleted and my post count is zeroed.

I understand that you really want keep away spammers and similarities, but in the current way you “Throw out the baby with the bath water”.

If there is a way please answer to this question in my name:

My answer:

“Try to go to Settings → Accessibility → Wake with volume buttons

I hope it helps. And sorry for my poorer English.

I don't understand your question.

Hey!

You can suggest better alternatives to the 10 posts restriction here, if you have any. To understand why that limit was added, read this.

Back to your concern - questions shouldn't usually go in development forums in the first place. That being said, you can always use the PM system to communicate with someone. :) And if you'd like to reach 10 useful posts, the best way is to check the Q&A forum of your device or the general Q&A/Android Q&A forum and help others out.

Useful posts

So, reading thru this thread, I now understand why I cannot post on this forum.

I applaud the effort to keep the spammers and the worst of the "post before I read" crowd but I do have a few concerns.

Firstly, I don't understand what a "useful post" is. Is this defined somewhere I can't/didn't find?

Also, I've been around these places for a long time. So, while I'm new to XDA and what I'm using it for (specific H/W and android development), I remember upgrading my first modem (14.4) to a 19.2! I downloaded and flashed several ROM's and tools for my tablet and donated to the developer but those actions don't count toward any critical way of establishing an account where I can post without the captcha (and impossible to post from tapatalk).

I don't want to load the forum down with silly but hopefully, useful posts just so they'll be seen (potentially) as useful to lift this restriction. Heck, is this post "useful"?

Is there a straightforward way to include additional criteria beyond "helpful posts"?

Thanks,

Larry
[About XDA developers] GermainZ:
A useful post is usually a helpful post. Does that mean every single post you make must be helpful? Hopefully, to someone, but that depends on which thread you're posting in and which forum. In other cases, it's simply not a spam post ("thanks," "me too," etc) that provides nothing of value.

To get your 10 posts, you can just help out other members if you can. You can check the General Q&A, Android Q&A (and others) as well as your device's Q&A forums for that.

(Other than that, questions don't belong in Development forums: post them in the Q&A forum instead.)

Utterly impossible captchas

I just joined this site after a long time lurking and WOW, what a pain in the ass. I went through about 10 captchas which I tried to solve when trying to register, plus another 40-50 I hit "refresh" on because they looked completely impossible.

And now I have to type more captchas just to post? You've got to be kidding me. You're using a system which weeds out humans in favor of spambots- humans can only take so much inconvenience and will eventually give up, but the spambots will keep plugging away until they succeed.

You can, of course, take the position of "who are you anyway? we don't need you/want you in our community", but I am sure I speak for a lot of people. These captchas are over the top.
[About XDA developers] GermainZ:
Sorry for the inconvenience. :( You can use the audio Catpcha if that's any easier, and the admins who monitor this thread will likely see if there's anything to do to make the selected Captchas more readable.

The Captchas and other limitations go away after you reach your 10th post. You can read more about why they've been added here, and suggest better alternatives here if you have any (I see you posted there already.)
[About XDA developers] rogertheshrubber:
That's all well and good but I doubt I will make it to 10 posts. It will involve filling trying to solve hundreds of captchas.

[About XDA developers] kuhno:
Currently i'm really angry and upset when trying to contribute to this forum...

The new member restrictions are really killing all fun.

I'm lucky that my current devices development is in a non-dev forum, so I can help there. Otherwise I would have to spam 10 times in topics I'm not interested in? But let's forget that, cause it was already talked about very often I guess.

Someone requested the build.prop of my device. Should be pretty easy to send. First I tried via the device. The XDA app can't post because it can't reach the server, everything else is working fine. trying via browser: the forum's text input doesn't accept long-tapping to insert, uploading files doesn't work either...

Finally sent it to my computer by mail to post it from there:

Can't post because "new members" (as I am being here for ~3 years) aren't allowed to add a link, which is included in the build.prop.

Uploading is not allowed, because the file format is not recognized.

So I wanted to edit my post: can't edit in the first 5 minutes because I'm too new.

For the captchas I need 3-5 tries, too; I'm about to doubt I'm really human. So in total i had to try to post at least 15 times to finally succeed partially...

Seriously, wtf?
[About XDA developers] GermainZ:
You only have a few more posts to go. :) If you have better alternatives to the 10 posts limitations, post here please.

Just a small request to admins

Can a feature to delete (not edit) polls be added?

I know that polls could be removed by PMing admins but this feature could be very helpful to many OPs out there would need frequent suggestions from members.
[About XDA developers] Jonny:
If they need frequent suggestions from users then surely it would be a small matter to make a post asking for suggestions?

In fact this is actually the better way to do it because with a poll you have set answers that you choose from, therefore the suggestions are not really from users but from the OP as he puts them into the poll. If you need suggestions it is better to ask the community to provide those as a user may think of something that isn't in the poll for example.

Hello moderators,

I have but a mere 11-post count... But I have been a looong time fan and reader of all things android on XDA for many years and a member for just over 2 years.

I recently read an excellent tutorial on hard-unbricking your i605 that another member made via jumping a resistor and reloading your bootloader from micro SD, however I wanted to build on it and provide my personal experience along with detailed instructions, however...

My post was flagged by the system and blocked for submitting. I really wrote up some great info, how can I go about getting my tutorial, based on a member named KOBOL's work, posted so that other i605 users can completely unbrick their phones? This is a great method that I never knew about until I stumbled upon it via a google search.

Please instruct me in how I can post my information and experience. Thank you for your time.

[About XDA developers] bitpushr:
Sorry about that! Try to split up your post into multiple parts. We have a scoring system that looks at external links and key words and it is probably flagging that although I'm not sure which one.

Introductory 10 post requirement....uhh....

Hey guys,

I thought to post and inquire about something (already knowing that i'm not the first or the last to say this).

Here is some context so that I am understood a little better, rather than assuming i'm just complaining.

Recently, I got my very first Android phone; the Xperia S (LT26i). I was disinterested in the Sony 4.1.2 (Stock) ROM and wanted to test others. At the moment, I'm using CarbonROM (which is epic). This means i've been reading, following, learning and competent enough to understand what it going on (for the most part).

Now, I want to post some bugs that i've encountered to the author of Carbon; in his thread. However, there is a 10 post requirement in order to do so.

If I know, specifically, what I want to ask (that is relevant to that thread), it is thoroughly annoying to have to deal with posting 10 times to be able to contribute to begin with.

Honestly, I was actually looking for threads to, essentially, spam posts so I can go about my business.....but that is just ridiculous...thus, I am posting this here.

No disrespect to the rules or the admins/moderators/rulers here.....but this is quite silly...
