I'm not sure where or if this can be found on the regular site, but in Tapatalk, There's a number for thanks we have given.... The 4396 above my thanks total are the thanks I've given others.... Not just Tapatalk app thanks, but registers thanks I give on the website too... I've just tested it.
[About XDA developers] Robbie P:
PMs are one-time things, even if PMing a group of people, attachments would only be viewed once and would clutter the servers. Unlike attachments viewed on site which have potentially unlimited number of downloads depending on how long they are posted.

Being able to search your own PMs would be good.

Best regards :good:
[About XDA developers] absinthesummer:
Yes I agree with this, plus any attachments can be uploaded to a hosting site & embedded anyway, which is my general preference anyway due to size limits... but for instance when I post new themes, I use an image hosting site for the photos/screenshots, and then attach the actual themes to the bottom.

For pm, hosting sites are enough, primarily because you're probably sending zips for the most part to other users, which can hit that size limit quickly for a simple one-off message.

Edit: would love to be able to search my inbox/outbox for key words though
[About XDA developers] :
Neat! The only thing I can say to this is "touché", because I never use Tapatalk. I only use the website on my PC and my mobile device.
[About XDA developers] GermainZ:
A workaround for now is to download your PMs as text/CSV/XML (preferably CSV) and then search. You can find the links at the bottom of your inbox/outbox. :)

It's possible… sort of. Use the XDA API with your user ID and look for "post_thanks_user_amount":

Yes, i know what you're meaning.

...but another thing: What is so bad in posting in an old thread?

Maybe somebody in 3 Years wants to know whatever and finds the answer in an 9 Year old thread?!

Have a good day ;)
[About XDA developers] GermainZ:
The problem may be separate. Especially in those cases, a new thread is better.

Even if it's similar to the problem, it might still be different enough to require a new thread (otherwise it'd get cluttered).

Old threads tend to have outdated info.

Bumping an old thread without adding anything of value usually clutters the forum.
[About XDA developers] TonyStark R.I.P.:
Depends on the situation. For the most part, a 9 year old thread is old... REAL OLD. 9 year old info (in most cases) probably has nothing to do with modern day devices.

What does this have to do with your current question?

As many ideas as she comes up with per hour, I'm surprised she hasn't yet had an amazing idea for an app that could be useful... if she applied her thought process to development and developed one of her ideas (not those above, but if she came up with an app or something), she could actually have something great AND be a model for what XDA stands for. My 2 cents.

[About XDA developers] vikraminside:
Most important feature in my view:

Custom categorization of threads in XDA app. I shall elaborate as this is escaping Mod's eyes. :)

Some threads can be classified important in favorites. Custom labelled. Grouped by labels. Grouped by date time. Most viewed. Pinned (Sticky exists). Forum name (exists already). Follow ups. Developmental. General group. Color coding like outlook email red blue green etc.

By This way importance can be prioritized. No unnecessary comments in developmental threads. Ha ha ha

Right now it is not easily visible.

Also: Thread Redirection

But i'd really like to know the Sensor sizes of the Lumia 1030 and the Galaxy S6 and HTC One M9.

And i think that the M9's Camera Specs are:

Back: 20.7 or 16MP, F2.8, 1/2.0" Size Dual Camera.

Second Back Camera (DuoCam) - 5 Megapixels Ultrapixel - 1/2.3"

Front: 1/2.3", 6 Megapixels Ultrapixel

S6: 1/2.3" or 1/2.0"

Lumia 1030: 1/1.2" and 1440p Video and 720p@60FPS
[About XDA developers] KidCarter93:
This really isn't needed, in my opinion.

Having a section for rumoured devices isn't great considering not all rumoured phones will come to fruition. Also, for those which are pretty much guaranteed (like the Galaxy S6, One M9 etc.) normally end up having a forum created before the release of the phone anyway. The forum will normally be created once the phone has been officially announced though so at least it gives members a chance to get involved in discussions before release and saves rumours getting mixed up with actual device specs.
[About XDA developers] quijote1:
OK, I've got a suggestion. I've been an XDA member for quite a while. Whenever I open the app, I see my favorites - every thread in which I have ever written a comment. I like this, but nevertheless I have to look at threads for devices that I haven't used for years. Right now when I long-press on one of those threads, I get the option to subscribe or share. How about a third option to delete? That is, to remove the thread from the index of my favorites.

The XDA 2013 style already has it but the XDA 2010 not.

There's a Linear, Threaded Standard and Hybrid viewing mode.

It's OK, but got many bugs, if you want to go to a page on a thread.

Yes, I am in the Participated section. When I write something, I like to follow that thread for a while. But at some point I would like to stop following that thread. I only subscribe to threads that deal with my current rom or kernel. I have always been able to un subscribe any time I want. My Participated index includes every thread that I have every contributed to since joining XDA. I'd like to be able to clean up that list.

[About XDA developers] :
Well your suggestion will get seen here.

But honestly, what you are asking for is exactly the intend of the subscription system. We can follow what we want, and un-follow when we want. Aka, subscribe and un-subscribe.

You're not the first to suggest a way to remove threads from the participated section though, so you never know. ?

Cheers!
[About XDA developers] KidCarter93:
As Darth mentioned above, this has been suggested a few times previously (generally asking in regards to the XDA apps though) and as an option hasn't been made available yet I'm sure there's a good reason why it hasn't been done yet. I'm sure an answer has been given before but I can't remember it off hand.

Using subscriptions is certainly more ideal though as it allows you to remove threads from that list when you no longer need/want them there (like you've already been doing) but it's also a better system if the server is down and search is lost for a little while. In that instance, all threads in your Participated list will not be shown whereas all threads in your Subscriptions list will stay intact.
[About XDA developers] malybru:
Hi,

Is it just me , or can anyone delete their subscription list:

[About XDA developers] :
Yes, we can delete our subscription list, but the conversation here has been about the Participated section, not the Subscribed section. :p
[About XDA developers] Robbie P:
participation is a statement of fact, subscription is a statement of choice.

You can choose to unsubscribe, but the only way to unparticipate is to get your posts deleted afaik.:)
[About XDA developers] GermainZ:
Excellent answers above, but I should point out that what you want is already 100% possible with subscriptions:

In your options, change "Default Thread Subscription Mode" from "Do not subscribe" to "No email notifications" (or any other option, if you prefer). This will automatically subscribe you to any threads you participate it.

You can view unread subscriptions here, and all subscriptions here.

To remove a thread you're no longer interested in, you can press the unsubscribe button.

If you want to have a separate folders for favorites you don't participate in, you can do that as well.
[About XDA developers] Primokorn:
Sweet :)

Would it be possible to have a dynamic notification next to the 'Notifications' button at the top right of the screen or a line into the drop-down list of Notifications (only for subscriptions)?
[About XDA developers] OfficerJimLahey:
Hi Germainz,

I use subscriptions already (subscribed to 5 forums, and about a dozen threads), but I find myself going back to participated (well, bouncing between Subscribed and Participated). Why so?

The 2013 theme (1024 version) is the one I use loyally, and there is no quick link all to subscribed threads (about three clicks away: Control Panel > Subscriptions > Folder). Only to those which have new/unread posts (Subscribed page) is a single click. It is quicker to find something recent under Participated than to navigate to all subscriptions.

Because I have participated in a couple hundred threads (and there would be at least a quarter I would like to keep tabs on), across many forums, it would be a chore to identify and subscribe to those. Also, it would ultimately clutter up the subscribed page for the threads I am really interested in. Unless I use folders (e.g. High-Interest vs. Low-Interest), of course.

For me, an opt-out option for participated would work for me, as it would remove the half-dozen thread that keep coming back on my Participated page that I no longer care to see.

The alternative for me is to organize (with folders) and subscribe to a good chunk of everything I participated in, something I would dread doing. Finally, I would have to then favourite the "All Subscriptions" page (as there is no quick way in 2013 theme to get to it).

Many thanks.
[About XDA developers] GermainZ:
You mean for the number of unread subscriptions? I can see how that would be awful for many people, so I'd personally rather have that as an option…

If you need access to the list of all subscribed thread, it's two clicks away. Alternatively, I guess you could use bookmarks. (I just use the history, but the Pentadactyl addon makes that easy for me… it's definitely not for everyone, though.)

Folders would work in this case, as you say. They're not that hard to use, though (assuming you've got the auto subscribe option already turned on):

Make a new folder called "Favorites".

Select the "favorite" threads you want (there's a checkbox next to each) in the subscriptions page, then use the dropdown at the bottom of the list to move them to the new folder.

The default folder will be used for participated threads, the "favorite" folder for your favorites only.
[About XDA developers] OfficerJimLahey:
Three clicks for me. Two to get to the page (thanks for the Quick Link option, saves having to search in the Control Panel pane), and the third to show all subscribed threads regardless of what folder it is in (as I only have orphans in the default folder).

Now, for a page to rule them all, how about having subscribed forums on the same page?
[About XDA developers] Hannah Stern:
Suggestion, no Doubt

I suggest making a Forum for App Requests.

Somebody says:

[About XDA developers] mark manning:
I don't see such a forum ever happening.
[About XDA developers] Jonny:
Such a forum would be overrun with requests with no developers answering them and holds little benefit to XDA. Maybe you should try looking for a freelance developer to make such an app, there are plenty of websites already geared towards this - though the content of AndroidManifest.xml alone is not much use I have have no idea why you would want to back it up or what you would do with it...
[About XDA developers] TonyStark R.I.P.:
This somewhat already exists. We have the Android Development and Hacking section.

While this is not quite a "request" forum, about as close as you will get, is the GENERAL DISCUSSION FORUM section (for the time being).
[About XDA developers] Primokorn:
Yep an option is enough. From the Notifications button we have PMs, mentions, quotes,... so adding unread subscriptions would be nice IMHO.
[About XDA developers] readySetAwesome:
Please reduce 10 post restrictions to 5

I've been at 5 posts for a month or so now and I have no idea how I'll ever reach 10 at this rate unless I literally start posting fillers. The problem is that all the posts I want to participate in are "thread creator has restricted blah for users with <10 posts". I'm always forced into the auto QA thread, where it seems I'm talking to myself and is unclear how visible my posts even are to the OP. And posts in the auto QA thread don't count towards my 10 so.... catch 22!

I really want to be part of this community. I was impressed that the overly obscure capthca image issue I complained about was fixed, it was really making my first 5 posts quite the pain. But this restriction is continuing to drag me down and preventing me from growing as a developer and as a consumer of custom ROMs, kernels.

[About XDA developers] :
Hello, [MENTION=6337098]readySetAwesome[/MENTION],

Ah, yes, the infamously bothersome 10 post rule. All the XDA moderators, senior moderators and administrators have heard as much griping about it as they would want to hear in their lifetime. ;)

If you search the About XDA forum with the search term "10 post rule", you'll uncover quite a large amount of information on the subject. Your precise case has, I'm sure, been brought up before; and yet, XDA has not changed it. Not that I blame them - the 10 post rule is one of the most ingenius ideas for spam control I've seen. The sad part, of course, is that those of us who are not spammers must deal with the cumbersome problems of having >10 posts, as you've seen. However, the benefits of spam control in my opinion far outweigh the difficulties, and I doubt it will be changed soon.

I think this thread's OP will help you with your plight of being unable to post in Development. Please read through it carefully.

Hi XDA team.

In your cellular provider list for South Africa, please can you change "8.ta" to "Telkom".

Telkom is our national (one of) telecommunications provider(s). Initially providing fixed-line (landline) communications. Later 56K Internet, and then ADSL as technology progressed, and so on...

They launched (I think in 2010 without doing any research) their mobile (cellular) branch as "8.ta". This has since been rebranded to "Telkom Mobile" (to use the Telkom brand to its "advantage", but still to differentiate the company's two core branches).

They have recently just dropped "Mobile" and refer now to both branches as "Telkom" (since they do offer bundled packages etc).

I'm using the XDA app, so I can't really confirm if you have changed it prior to this message. According to the app, my profile shows "8.ta", so logically I can assume it has not been reported, nor changed.

Regards

EDIT: Perhaps this must be moved to the "Operator Logos and Country Flag Problems" thread. Or whichever is, in fact, the correct thread for this.
