More than anything, XDA is a community, and we're all here for different reasons.

Some are here to mod their phone--some joined just to ask a question. Or perhaps, like many, you joined so long ago, you have no idea why you're here (which is totally fine! we've been around for almost a decade). :cool: And we're in the process of making XDA more useful to everyone here now that we've moved to much better forum software.

But we'd love to know your XDA story: why are you here, and who are you? What's your day job, what phones do you have, where do you live, what do you like to do for fun? We'd love to get to know you!

Also, be sure to spend some time filling out your profile:

https://xdaforums.com/account/account-details

And also adding what phones you have to your inventory:

https://xdaforums.com/account/xda-devices

:cowboy: thanks and welcome. I'm one of the guys in charge and my DMs are always open if you ever want to chat or even complain.

Go ahead and make a new thread in this forum instead of replying to this post.

What's up,

I'm youngspeed and I'm here to further my knowledge on tech. But I also have a few questions.

1 how do I sign in to the app because it redirects me to my browser to confirm authorization but when I do it takes me back to the XDA app but doesn't sign me in. (Update: I was able to sign in so I don't have a question about this anymore)

2 does anyone know how to get Google Camera on the Samsung A10e without rooting or flashing because I have been trying but no success. If there is a way can you send the apk please?

And lastly how do I make a discussion? Thanks

Hello. I have an LG expression 3 and a MotoG 7 power .i am here looking for a ROM or theme for both phones.

A while back I had an AOPk boot animation that was awesome and the alien ROM ( I think) . it had awesome fonts and icons. I was wondering if UI theme kitchen is still around and if either phone is rootable and or would be compatible with the theme kitchen. ?? Its been a while but I really hope you can help me find something . both phones are pretty plain and boring .

Well i like the internet especially for the opportunity to learn from others and share information with people that equaly appreciate the content as much as i do.

Here i gonna admid i am more on the newby side.. I played around with phones in the past. Mostly following up tutorials of people that really understand what they are doing... And this way i can create something with their help that me on my own would be hard to accomplish... We build on each other in different aspects of life and here i am appreciating to receive knowledge of the ones that are really into electronics/software/programming. ..

Its a strange, extremly complex but logic world that i find myself in when dealing with modifiying electronics .

Thanks for sharing this with me

[Introductions] DebianShaka:
Hi. I'm a french CS engineer and a Debian addict.

I systematically root all my phones and have a specialization in tuning the iptables to not talk to the GAFAMs. Rooted phones so far : Huawei codenames HAM, NEML51, old samsung phones, a couple of Wiko phones.

I've been following XDA-developers for a decade and decide now to onboard :

* Short-term goal : get some help on a very edge case involving dm-verity and kali nethunter on Nexus5X (bullhead)

* Long-term goal : wait patiently for the day when a full debian phone / ubuntu touch will be available at a relatively low price, and help all along

[Introductions] Kingsqueen80:
Hi not exactly new to the forums. I've known about XDA for years because of my ex, he swore by your forums. If nothing else, I learned alot about computers in general from him which he learned from these forums. I'm here now, myself, because I had the only two emails I've ever used hacked into and was unable to recover due to the fact I was not properly secured on my phone. Alot has happened since then, had my identity stolen, the works. Still processing it all today. But I've come along way since that day I would say and it won't be so easy for the next person to steal from me. And that's due in part to XDA forums. 😊

Got a UHANS u200 some while ago and discovered its so bloated and android version so old its not too hot. There are several apps will not run on the phone. Bloat hogs memory.

Hence looking for any help on XDA with a view to meddling with the software.

So fed up of www sites full of rubbish and virus probability. I have come here.

I got into programming via BBC micro and Basic. Main employ was in electronics but stepped into programming. Dbase, Oracle, Informix a bit of Unix. Now retired I have lately dabbled with Visual Basic via Visual Studio. What I most need is access to geniune UHANS updates or suitable Custom ROM. Practicaly NIL experience with Android 'hacking'

Introduction/Story:

Well, I've used this site for a while in the past. It's probably been so long my account must have been deleted because even though Google remembers my login and password, my account didn't exist.

I'm not super big in the mobile scene but I've loved some of the work I've found here over the years. Historically, I've used this site a number of times to resurrect devices that for whatever reason, typically deprecation, are no longer viable without help.

Currently, I'll spare the embarrassing story behind this but let us just say I murdered my Samsung Galaxy Note 9. The only physically functional substitute I have lying around happens to be my old Lumia 1520 running Windows 8.10.14219.341

I never used the phone on AT&T's network, so I never got the option to update it to Windows 10, or any updates ever for that matter. I'm pretty sure I re-purposed my old SD card from this where all my apps were installed, so as it stands now it's basically a paperweight. I'm hoping to find everything I need to update it to Windows 10 mobile so I can at least make reasonable use out of it until I get a replacement phone. Maybe even check out if any android projects for Lumia phones went anywhere sometime down the road.

Anyway, I'm glad to be back in XDA, you all have typically been great and I don't really think I've ever felt disappointed with the resources I've found here. This is a site I've grown to trust even if I may just be an infrequent user.

Always trying to get much from little i value the experiences you all gather here. The success and failures all are profitable and I often am able to see the pieces where they've fallen and get a little closer to my own success. I am by no means the "outside the box thinkers" you all have cultivated here but i will contribute to worthwhile although most times a bit self serving goals. The new feel of XDA has encouraged me and I look forward to future success' as a group. BTW Here is some food for thought... I know the cheaper baseline phones are often so locked down its not worth a great deal of effort, but I'd like to note the similarities between taking that BS device and making it a screamer and the 1940's hotrodders taking their dads T-model ford and making it soar down the black tops...it was just cool !

[Introductions] ColourOz:
Thank you for the welcome! After registering, I would like to add my phone to the Device Inventory, but it does not show in the list.

I have an Oppo Find X which I purchased a couple of years ago (new). No, it is not the version 2, 3 or Pro, just the Find X which has a pop-up camera. It has Android 10 and OS is ColorOS which is continually updating,. Best of all, it did not come with unnecessary bloatware.

My 2009 Nissan X-Trail had an analogue head-unit and about a year ago I removed it and purchased a digital head-unit and stripped the wires and rewired the head-unit. Being unfamiliar with head units, and believing the advertising blurb, it did not come with wifi , although my car antenna has a wifi cable. However, it does have 2 USB outlets. It has Android Auto pre-installed. I now have to figure out how to connect my phone to the head-unit so that I can use Google Maps.

Help would be very much appreciated.

[Introductions] hapless_researcher:
Hello all, I'm just an end user who is simply interested in custom Android ROMs, privacy/security, FOSS, etc.

My Android journey started back in 2019 when I ditched my iPhone 7 for a cheap, used Motox4 off Amazon and I flashed LineageOS on it. (It was very liberating when I got it to boot because this meant that I could finally jump off the expensive iPhone train!)

Recently, I bought a refurbished Amazon Fire HD 8 (2020) tablet and used the Fire Toolbox on it. It worked wonderfully, and it was nice to wipe out all that bloatware and install Aurora and F-Droid, etc. I primarily use it for reading manga via Tachiyomi (best app ever!) Ideally, it would be nice to flash LineageOS on this tablet as well, but I'm happy with the current setup for now :)

With the incoming Windows 11, I'm slowly transitioning to Linux and have chosen Manjaro XFCE as my distro of choice (hoping to see what gaming is like on it soon!)

For privacy/security, I like lurking and posting on Reddit in r/privacy, r/degoogle, and other related subs. I also watch some videos from Techlore and The Hated One on YouTube. (Any other recommendations for this topic?)

My non-tech hobbies are mostly anime/manga and wasting time on Reddit and YouTube. I work the nightshift so I pretty much don't have a life for now, haha.

Anyways, sorry for the lengthy intro and thanks for reading if you made it this far. I'll probably have a low post count here since I'm more of a lurker unless I run into a tech-related problem or have a strong curiosity about something in which I am tempted to post. Cheers!
[Introductions] woodman:

this is my first post but the most important for me. It's first such proffesional forum where we could to find almost everything what is needed :)

I would like to write Hello to everyone on this forum ;)

I am at the begining of the adventure but I need to learn all concerning android/linux.

I didn't realise before how important is to know how to use devices on android/linuks platform but in the proper form.

I lost over one year of my life because of using my device as child- I mean installing and accepted all requirements of each app.

Finally I was hacked and someone almost destroyed my life probably for fun.

As 40 years guy who has the best two children on this planet I have to learn and to know all to be safe in the cyber world because it's also our "real life".

Hello ;-)

Well I was here before but i dont needed the old Account very much.

It was hacked or deleted. I dont know. No critical data in it.

I am modding my devices since Andoid 1. And I root my devices everytime.

In times where company´s spam you with forced apps and features you dont want you have no other choice. I modify usually stock roms just for myself till there are non of them anymore.

I use Custom Rom´s where stock wont release anything anymore.

I love Apex Pro, Titanium pro, SD Maid, ADaware, Autostarts and many more.

I guess that is more than anyone will read 🙈

Yeah and i´m kind of an 🦄

Anyway... have fun
