[About XDA developers] :
I completely agree with you there. Sorry if you misunderstood. Asking for help in the Mega threads is definitely encouraged and the best way to get help.

But, we can't control it if members don't notice them or don't want to post there, and create their own thread. That's their choice, or lost opportunity if they didn't search and find the mega thread for their device.

Questions in those threads are encouraged. :good: My point was individual question and "help me" threads are not supposed to be in the General Section. That's what the Q&A sections are for. And where those threads get moved to when found.

Well, your suggestion has been passed on to Admin.... So we shouldn't continue discussion in this thread... That's not its purpose. Absolutely feel free to PM myself, or the SM's who responded above if you want to discuss it further. :)

Cheers!

Hi

So while suggesting a feature for a site i got a really funny error while submitting. Apparently the send link errors with 418. So XDA thinks it's a teapot, that sucks, I really wanted coffee.

On the actual suggestion:

So while buying a phone, barring the hardware the next biggest requirement for me was Community support.

I figured that sites like GSMarena keep some kind of interest statistics, which are a pretty good guess in what what people are looking at, but when it comes to this side of the world, with modding etc, this is the only site that can actually gauge the interest and support in the community. And make it visible on one page.

So what I'm suggesting is starting to track and show ratings of sorts, on devices, in terms of community involvement.

A few metrics:

* Major rom official support (Cyanogen, Slim, AOKP, etc.)

* no of active custom roms

* rom activity (possibly tie into github here, and figure out a way to gauge that)

etc.

Personally I think there's a fair bit of value in that, for end users, devs, even for companies like cyanogen.
[About XDA developers] Elya_Dragon:

Too many posts

I am concerned about the increasing amount of posts. When I open my RSS reader (usually every other day), I see 3 posts from a games news source, 4 posts from my tech news source... every source I subscribe to has a few unread posts. But XDA has ~30! It hasn't always been that way. When I subscribed in 2014 the amount of posts was reasonable.

I am not sure about how to solve this problem, but it made me unsubscribe (until solved).

Perhaps you could make another RSS feed with just featured articles? Or there could be a feed that has 3 most viewed posts from the last day.

I tried to post an image with a graph that shows the amount of posts but apparently I can't since I never posted anything. If you want to look at it replace _ with /

New section for htc one m8s

Hi XDA, I am new here.. But I have learned a lot of things from this forum.

I would like to suggest a new section for HTC ONE M8S (M8QL_UL) phone, the replacement of flagship m8.

Most of us are having conversations here and there about this phone on stuff like rooting unlocking flashing etc. It would be great to have a seperate section for HTC ONE M8S like the HTC ONE M8.

Hi,

Thank you all for your great work, but I'm missing an option to revoke all client authorized logins.

Let me explain further, I logged in at the Xposed repo (oauth) and at the main site at an (work) computer that it's now at more than 10000 km away, and I though that if I changed the password the current authorized logins would be revoked, but not. I changed the password and my laptop and mobile browser are still logged in, and also all the others (Repo and apps).

Would be nice to have a button to revoked all current logins and force an auth refresh.

Wasted screen real estate in forums, tiring eyes

With a 15.6" 2880x1620 monitor, zoom at 175%, I get at most 3 one-line posts on one screen. Reading a 91-page thread is a pain because of the wasted screen space due to bad layout, mainly the left-side fluff (huge thumbnail, name, Thanks meter, flag, Donate, etc.), too-tall post header and footer, "The following X users say thank you" line, space between messages, etc.

Example here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=60776636&postcount=9

Not to mention uuuhh, invasive signatures: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=61279891&postcount=165

Also, I don't see a "Show n posts at a time" button, so when reading all the posts in a long thread, we spend as much time scrolling and looking for the "Read More" (blurred text in background = bad) and waiting for the next page as actually reading.

Ciao,

I was browsing your site using the Chrome browser on my Nexus phone - the ads are very very intrusive!

I've been loving the ability of DevDB to show only ROM/Kernel/Tool related threads, but I think it should be expanded more.

Thread title tags are a good way of finding stuff, yet devs are not consistent with them as there is no real convention of using them.

So, I think DevDB projects should include more information, in example about supported Android versions, UBL/LBL compatibility in case of ROMs, Root requirement in case of apps/mods, or whenever it's an app or a mod, stuff like that.

Then DevDB could have a nice filtered thread list view with stuff you are actually looking for ;)

[About XDA developers] garyd9:
I'm fairly certain I'm posting this in the wrong place, but I'm really not sure WHERE to post it (or who to send it to...)

With the samsung galaxy S7, there are two hardware variants. One with a snapdragon 820, and the other with the Exynos. The snapdragon variant is (so far) limited to North America, but rumor suggests it will also be used in China.

All the snapdragon variants are locked down (locked bootloader, no root, etc.) This includes those for Sprint and TMobile carriers.

(The situation is exactly the same for the S7 Edge.)

The point of this post is that we (XDA) current have 10 (for each of S7 and S7 edge, 4 US carriers and one generic) sections on XDA to cover 4 hardware variants (2x S7, 2x S7 Edge.) The only difference between the "snapdragon" variants is a bit of preloaded software. In fact, the preloads for exynos versions actually differ more than the snapdragon versions (simply because there are more of them.)

So, my suggest is to COMBINE all the US carrier S7 sections into a single "Samsung Galaxy S7 (Snapdragon 820)" section, and possibly rename the existing "generic" S7 section to "Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos)"

The only threads going on in any of the S7 sections are "do we have root yet?", "my battery sucks", and other basic stuff. I suspect it would help most users if all those questions/comments/threads were in the same area... as they are all in common.

Take care

No option to include my mobile phone in Devices

Very minor issue...(& is it in the right place?)

Hi,

I was trying to include my mobile phone (a Huawei P8) in Your Profile > Edit Your Details > Devices, but there is no option for it.

Please see the screenshot below for a better understanding - the present & similar-looking Huawei 'P8max', 'P8lite', 'GX8' & 'Mate 8' options that show up are for different models.

Any chance of including the P8 as a separate option? Thanks :)
[About XDA developers] OfficerJimLahey:
Hello, :cowboy:

The Devices drop down is linked to the present forums/tags (mind you, I don't think you can set a selection based on a tag, only forum) on XDA. To have a device created in the forums, we have a request process for that.

Hope this helps.
[About XDA developers] GaT7:
Thanks for replying. So, I'm presuming this is a tag link: http://xdaforums.com/t/huawei-p8

I see several Huawei P8 requests have already been made since the middle of April last year - a search - so I don't think another request is going to make a difference. Unless you suggest otherwise?
[About XDA developers] OfficerJimLahey:
That's right. Sometimes the tags show up in the device drop down, though becasue they are not a proper forum, you will not be able to save that selection (or at least last I checked).

Number of unique votes plays only one factor. A larger factor is the amount of development available for said device. At any rate, you can vote once for a device, if you like. With over 100 search results though, I think you are right - the point has been made. ;)

Hi,

so I'm here to address some things about the user signatures that I think are confusing and weird, well it's about using the gifs and images in signature....

So,in permission box it says I don't have permission to use gifs in my signature (I think it only says yes for the moderators and admins) but I can use them finely with IMG tags, it's practically weird and will may confuse many other people so if something is possible to do with it (like let's say make it say yes for all, sorry I can't seem to think of a constructive idea here) then that'll be good

Also I didn't really understand the concept of having a separate signature picture upload option where it'll only support 100×500(if I have not mistaken) while you can put way bigger images in your signature fine with the IMG tags(again) and I think this one is also quite confusing so would be good if this one also gets addressed in some way (no constructive ideas again)
