Hey everyone,
Just thought I'd introduce myself and let everyone know a little about who your forum mod is. I'm an Evo 4G and Viewsonic gTablet user, former Samsung Moment user, as well as being avidly involved in both threads. I'm looking forward to working with you all, and I'm looking toward cooperation and production with this forum! Thanks all, and feel free to post here as an off topic general post
Make sure to report posts which are violating forum rules so that I may take appropriate action! Thanks!!
I'm confused, are you replacing the scotsman? or assisting?

Sorry - I believe I am replacing him, though he is the "mentor" for a number of moderators.

Oh okay, I just thought it was kind of odd that you posted this in the theme forum (thought maybe you were only moderating this one forum or something)
Anyway, glad to have you aboard, I think Scotsman had a lot on his plate as there are quite a few threads that need to be cleaned up and/or stickied. I'm assuming you'll be taking care of that going forward? If so, maybe we can post a list in here to make it a bit easier for you?

Feel free to post those suggestions! I appreciate it.

Oh, so they just haven't given you access to the other mesmerize forums yet (android development, general, etc.)?
I'll look tonight and get a list together.
welcome sir...good to have you aboard...you got a mesmerize as well?
I'm a total n00b and I haven't really contributed anything but really excited that the mesmerize is getting some attention and I can't wait to see what kind of roms and mods will come. Anyway, welcome and thanks for taking the job

This must be good news for us right?

Better than a sharp stick in the eye, but the enthusiasm should be tempered by this part:
"...but the reality is that individual networks also need to approve the software updates and put it through vigorous in-house testing to ensure it plays nicely with their own branded software, meaning that although the official update button is pushed it could still be quite some time before users can benefit from it."
Sort of but not really: FTA:
Galaxy S II LTE devices are not supported at all.

True true...
The pointless threads will never end. And questions in General will never end. You would thinking checking Yes to "Is this a question?" and seeing the [Q] appear in the title would light a bulb in their heads telling them they should be posting in Q&A. But then again, you would also think that checkbox would automatically post it in Q&A.

I have requested that action take place. I think it is being added to the looooooong list for the site programmers.

Yea I don't doubt that the list is very long. Thanks for requesting it, though! Next thing needed is a report button on the app. I know it used to be there, but I can't remember if it was the xda app, the tapatalk app, or both. But now neither seem to have it. And I don't know who that request would go to, either xda or tapatalk.

It's got 32gb standard and a expandable sd card alot 5.5 inch 1080p screen and a 3140 milliamp battery that's removable. It's also just 200 at att
Look, this is an apology to everyone about a post I submitted yesterday, but I am NOT sorry for what I was trying to say, I login to get information on different things, and in order to even get where you want to go, you have to sift thru the same stuff over and over, like today, 5 threads started with the same info I saw on tech news sites everywhere, so the google phone is going to be released, what in the heck does it have to be here, in this forum in 5 threads, I am looking for fixes not tech news. Again, an apology was in order. This post is to all that are here for the same purpose I am, to try different things out on our phones, can't we at least stay on that subject?
Lets move on please.
Just tried to direct a thread to here and they told me to basically to shove off lol

I know, I saw where you were trying to politely say that..Pretty soon, it is going to be full of this type stuff, but on another note, I think what is happening is everyone is getting in a hurry to do something with this device, and there is nothing more than root for 1st timers. And there will be alot of them, coming very soon, and the search option can be at times for new people a nightmare. We are going to be in trouble, or the moderators are going to be super busy with the volume that is fixing to flood this site.

That was removed because the report system was changed. But on the XDA App tap the message, hit more, hit open in Browser and you can then hit the triangle to report a post.
When you see redundant threads please report it and in the report link to the first or in the redundant thread to make it easier to close and redirect these useless threads.
Thanks guys :good:

I've noticed this, looks like a real competitor for Note II.
HOWEVER is there a forum here for this device?
I will never use a phone that I cannot root or customize! LOL (That's what Apple is for, jailbreak excluded)

You will have less to worry about because there will only be 10 people there to follow the rules.
The real reason that there are useless threads is because there are so many people checking in here. Most aren't your normal XDA member. Most just bought the phone and want to hang out somewhere to talk about it. They have no idea that the phone black clips, lags, or has a locked bootloader. They read threads, find problems that they weren't aware of and then ask questions.
These people also keep the numbers up and view the advertising that XDA needs to survive. So its not all one sided.

Well the day has finally come.. Owned it since the first day the skyrocket came out
check it out here:
Mod Edit: You cannot list your device for sale on here.
If this is your way to circumvent the no selling on xda rule I think it will fail. The mids will most likely delete this. I would've reported you but I am on my phone.
Please follow the rules.

I have 2 to give out. No new accounts, I want these to go to established xda members, so I am implementing a 200 post minimum. Sorry, it is what it is.
First 2 people to post with 200+ posts get them, and all I ask is if you take one, you actually USE it.
They are only good for a couple more days, so if you don't plan on using it, please don't ask for it.
So... who wants one?
Mods please forgive me. Just want to help out my fellow XDA members.

My N5 doesn't turn on and I might need a new phone as I've been told it's very costly to repair.
So I'd love to receive an invite but I'm still a couple posts away from 200 post count. I'd rather not spam the forum with 10 useless posts though.
Let me know if you want to hand me an invite.

Who wants a Nexus 6 when the 2014 Moto X is available?
Who wants a Moto X when the Xperia Z3 is out?
Who wants an Xperia Z3 when they can have an iPhone 6?
Who wants an iPhone 6 when you can buy a working Motorola Star Tac on ebay?
The answer- some people.
Last one, up for grabs-
