Sorry about sort of cross posting but I didn't want to see this thread slip away since most users reside in the ROM sub forum.

This forum is called XDA developers so why are all the phones HTC. I love my XDA's and i will be getting the XDA Zinc when it comes out, how come there is no section for it?
You already said it:
"When it comes out" - the device is not available yet, so I think a proper forum will be created by our admins when it's time for it.
The forums are always created well in advace of the phone actally being released.
XDA history
Whilst the original xda (Wallaby) was an HTC device, the name xda was an O2 name and continues to apply to O2 branded pda's even though manufacturers have changed. If this is, more accurately, an htc-developers forum I can understand them sticking to their guns, but if it is a pda-developers forum I can't.
The Asus MarsII design has been around for a while as the leaked FCC threads have shown. If a MarsII/Zinc folder was going to appear it would have done by now.
Personally, I'd like to see non-HTC folders on here as I like the forum, but it ain't my call. If they don't appear on here, they'll spring up somewhere else as soon as people start buying Zinc's/MarsII's/MDA-whatevers/etc.
i'd post it in the
About xda-developers.com
or request the adm if i were you
my exp is that forum changes comes in bursts and not often
but one problem could be giving the misconception of owners of other devices like LOOX and ipaq and the likes that they could use HTC roms tools and developers exp to fix issues and port roms to their devices because there were forums on the site for their devices
but then that is the case now too
so by giving them their own forum would isolate posts about those devices in their own forums rather then in general
that is ofcause untill ppl got lonely and fustrated from lack of response in their device forum and double posted their "can i unlock my nokia and flash it with WM6 rom" posts
Hey guys, just joined up with this forum. I just purchased the ATT 8525 today and hopefully it will be here in a few days. Is there anything that i should know more about this phone, besides specs and stuff? Anything that i should do when i get the phone? Any advice will be good.
Thanks
Welcome to xda! There is a wealth of information here for your phone. Before your next post:
1. Read the sticky at the top of the Hermes section regarding posting (trust me its for your own good)
2. Get VERY familiar with this section of the site:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Hermes
If I were you I would spend some serious time reading through the forums before you decide to do anything to your phone. It will definitiely help you in the long run. Good Luck!
hi and welcome
i'm not as familiar with the unit you have but i think it's also known as wizard....guyz, please feel free to correct me if i'm wrong here... but in any case, scroll down the main forum page and you should see the section dedicated to the wizard. from there you can browse around and check the extremely useful list of topics for the device.
cheers
No..see my signature. The 8525 is a Hermes. I have the same phone.
norwstman30, welcome to xda-devs!!!
please, please, please, please, search and read! everything you will run into IS on this forum and posting a question of what to do when your 8525 (hermes) freezes or drops calls.. etc will annoy the rest of us. The wiki has all you need to know, welcome to owning a great device!
i own the imate jasjam which is the same as the 8525 except its black and has a camera on the front. I'm on at&t aswell in austin, texas... hook 'em horns!
Hey, just joined, purchased the Softbank X01HT, and the person previously installed the english pack. Will definately read through the wiki first.
Just wanted to say hi!
Guys,
Is it possible to start a separate thread in the forums (where all the other phones are) specifically for the Omnia? Pleaaaase?
Regards
Jon
Here's the omnia's main thread started back in June...

Omnia WiFi
I got Omnia and its WiFi and GSM works perfectly....
I know it has a thread but I mean a separate area on the forum, with it's own little photo like the HTC's! C'mon administrators, it's popular enough? The Palm has one

there is a forum for it
In the name of
hi every body i just want to ask why there is no a section for Samsung
i see a one for X1 but why there is no a section for omnia i900 & i8000
to we share our roms & other things
please any one from admins can help us to make a section for samsung
mobiles with WM OS
I am sorry for my bad english​
Everything except for HTC phones are evil and not worthy of the attention of this forum.
the legitimate reason is the admins claim not enough bandwidth is available. if the ability to upload pictures was removed enough bandwidth would be cleared up for other phones.
Its Because this whole Forum...Xda-Devs is mainly for the hTC Device purpose and not samsung; the reason why we have the "Sony" X1 is because hTC Helped or so i heard from the interview with pocketnow
yeah cause us uploading pictures is the reason
Other forums are commercially viable (and benefit from having as many users as possible).
why not this one?
Yeah, i asked this myself too before.
I know that XDA-Dev is historically HTC-Only but the time goes on and the Omnia was in the first months of this Year one of the best selling Windows-Mobile-Phones on the marked. I believe that there are much more Omnia's "out there" than some of the HTC-Devices that have their own Section.
If you take a look in Dev & Hacking, you will notice that there are in almost every QVGA-App-Release / Discussion-Topics some "WQVGA Omnia" replies.
This has been answered countless times in countless other threads..
Thread closed.
First - let me apologize as I KNOW that this is NOT the correct place to put this.
There does not seem to be a forum for the "LEO" or HD2.
Has anyone seen this? Is anyone planning on ROMs for it? (I am sure that someone is.) It LOOKS like it is to be released this week in England? (See: http://www.softsailor.com/news/8132...o-to-be-released-on-october-12-in-the-uk.html )
I cannot find anything about it's availability in the US - anyone with knowledge?

THIS is (will be) my new phone when it is available.

This is definetly not the place for this thread, but I'm in the same place. This will be my next phone.
Probably they'll open its forum when it's released.
And I think it's going to pass the Kaiser forum as the most visited one in XDA in a short time, hehehe.
