I'm sorry if I'm telling people what to do but this forum is ATM to messy.
The moderator should clean it up by pinning the guides to the top and making a "Rom bible" thread where we could locate all the different ROM's.
FAQ thread should be made as well.
I was hopping that we could help the admin with this and not just complain about the situation. So here I start (Please fell free to correct and add things):

It is now somewhat in alphabetical order...
ha ha i think that was funny. Functionally this is very useful. What aplhabet priority will you give to arrange it. Just continue with what you have started I hope the Mods take note of this.
Yeah i agree with the op, i hope mods will take care of it!
All you had to do was ask
I'll get this done today or tomorrow. Appreciate the help in getting the links together. I don't have a Defy, so I'm not familiar with all the procedures etc...
I'll definitely do an "FAQ" type thread for all the main guides.
I'm not 100% sure about a ROM list as that is something that will always be changing and require update all the time. I think it may be easier just to let users find their own ROMs?
Opinions?
That would be cool!
Maybe you could include a link to the wiki page. It would than be easier to keep the ROM list up-to-date.
PS: You can find the Defy wiki-page at http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=Motorola_Defy
I added the links to the wiki page.
OK, seems good, so the ROM part is done aswell.

It would be workable but it would need two things - ideally a Mod dedicated to the Defy section or at least actively monitoring it and secondly when someone starts a new thread about a ROM, to PM said Mod so that they weren't having to constantly trawl through the section to check for them.
I also think it would be useful is all thread titles were formatted similarly - if it's a ROM, start with [ROM]; if it's a guide, start with [guide] etc etc.
That and trying to keep question threads out of here, have them all moved to the general section.
In fact, now that I think about it, isn't it possible to have it so that any new threads hidden until authorised by a Moderator? That way any threads purely asking questions could be weeded out immediately and, indirectly, the/a Mod would end up aware of any new threads that needed to be added to a FAQ/sticky thread and also fix any badly-formatted title.
I know it would potentially add a slight delay to new threads appearing if there were an Mod actively monitoring the Defy section it shouldn't be too bad.
Sorry for just suggesting ways to increase your workload but I'm just thinking out loud...

I'm happy to keep a list of ROMs up to date if I get help in being informed of any new ones etc....I visit all my allocated forums MANY times per day (probably more than I should, even at work ), so that's not a problem. I'm always just a PM away, any time of day or night, unless I'm asleep
Because I visit all my forums so often, there's rarely a time when there are any question threads in the dev section...I like to move them as soon as I see them, so thats another issue I am managing no problem.
I was considering implemeting the same method as you suggested, using the [ROM], [Guide] etc tags in each thread title as they work well in other forums. I'll create a sticky with more information tonight after work.
The Defy forum has become a lot more populated over the last month or so, which is why things are getting a little more cluttered, so hopefully we can all work together and keep it clean and structured
Please feel free to suggest anything else you think will improve the forums

Sorry, didn't mean to suggest otherwise.
I just wasn't consciously aware of you having been around here and also since you're managing 9 sections eek, I thought maybe it would be unfair to ask so much.
I mean, I've done the moderating thing (elsewhere) but I doubt I could've dealt with that sort of load.
About moving questions away from the Dev section, I had also wondered if it might be worth having a sub-section for questions rather than throwing them into the General section, that way it's easier for people to see if a similar question had already been asked.
But I guess most of the questions will be about particular ROMs/Guides etc and will therefore be asked in that thread, so maybe that'd be unnecessary...
Nah nah, it's ok, I know you didn't imply anything
Yea, it's a difficult one with question threads...most of them are related to ROMs or a particular ROM...and if not they are usually general enough to be put into the General forum, which is intended for general chit-chat on a device, or questions.
Some mods like to have a Q&A dedicated sticky thread in the dev section, but im not a big fan of these.
I think the FAQ/Guide sticky should help somewhat in reducing the number of question posted in the dev section.
I was thinking, some sort of Glossary/FAQ thread/post would also be quite useful.
Terms like 'ClockworkMod' and so on get thrown around and whilst there is a thread on how to install it, there isn't really anything that explains clearly to people starting out what it is.

Hi guys i'm nes on this forum, i'm italian and i have a samsung captivate i897, i also take this opportunity to introduce myself...
Now i expose you the problem:
i have a i897 captivate marked AT&T for this i have a problem to fix the GPS and to install applications outside the market, I would like you to help me to make clean OS from the applications AT & T and put in i897 a i9000 ROM not rooted...please guys help me, and thanks in advance
1. Read the new owners guide.
2. This forum is about learning things by yourself. Don't expect to be spoonfed.
3. Custom ROM always =Rooted mind you.
Sent from my Captivate. Andromeda 3, Onix 2.0.5 @ 1.2Ghz
I read the guide but i'm desperate,do you recommend something? can u post the link of the better rom and kernel that i can use? im noob in android world
I can't recommend anything man. Everything is good.
You have to discover by yourself what suits your needs.
Sent from my Captivate. Andromeda 3, Onix 2.0.5 @ 1.2Ghz
the new user guide (that i wrote) teaches about stickies! and where to find them!
find the stickies in the captivate general, q&a and dev forums they have all the answers you are looking for and way more.
go. read. learn.
this is really basic stuff. At&t does not like you installing apps not from the market "its called side loading" you need to be rooted to fix it and there are pleanty of guides "one click root has an option to enable non market apps" to get a different rom go to the dev sectoin chose a rom and follow the simple directions or for a guide for the entire process http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=884364
Assuming what you meant was that you want ATT's crap taken off and a new ROM...
Why would you not want your device rooted? If voiding your warranty is a concern it's fine, there are plenty of methods to return back to stock Eclair/Froyo. And there really isn't a ROM out there that's head and shoulders over the rest, you're going to have to play around and see which one you like the feel of the best. Try out a different ROM every couple of days and see how you like it.

If you are asking someone to help you build a rom well... I don't think that will happen. You can go to samfirmwares.com and download a stock i9000 rom, but without root you, and if you don't know how to build to incorporate the home button and haptic feedback fixes, your phone won't work right. My suggestion is to go to this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=948790
They are all stock i9000 roms with only busybox and root installed. I'm using the stock jvh on my captivate, at the moment, and it works great. You will have to deal with root. It's better to be rooted anyway.

Only replying to that small part of your post, and correcting you by saying no, you don't need to be rooted to sideload applications. SWM (Sideload Wonder Machine) can do it so long as you have the drivers installed and USB Debugging on. I installed several applications as soon as I got the phone, long before I ever rooted my phone, much less installed a custom ROM on it.

Why didn't you use google? There are plenty of places that explain how to root that aren't on this site, which is more an "advanced" place anyways(I use that term loosely, but I get the idea that people here assume you know a little about your phone).
Check out MobileTechVideos, the guy who does those had a three-part, in-depth ROM flash set of videos that explain exactly how to use One-Click to Root.
Edit:
Christ dude, use some decent punctuation and at least attempt to be succinct in your requests. Freaking out isn't going to get you anywhere.

First of all, I would like to thank in advance the guys who answer my questions.
1)I ve read some threads about Xoom and I see most of you are in 3.2 and in Europe we don't have even 3.1 . How can I make it to be a US version to get the updates? Is it safe or should I wait?
2)My first priority is to find a way to root my device. I saw a one-click root way but the files are offline from xda and it says that it has issues with EUR versions. Whats your advice? Can you help me with the steps because I dont have much android knowledge?
3)Whats your opinion about custom roms for Xoom and how can I flash from 3.01?
Thanks again, and if you have any suggestions on what apps you love using in your xoom it would be great
Apps go the apps section and read.
Changing to us version and flashing roms etc go to the development section and read.
You clearly don't like to chat m8, If I found a topic for EUR but the links are offline as I said before. There are people who like to share their knowledge thats why its a q/a thread and not app section or dev section.

Hi there, welcome to the Xoom family.
Like every family, some members like to talk and others don't.
It's true that the threads you want are mostly in the Development section.
Since you are on Wifi only it should be pretty easy for you to flash the US wifi image (you will actually find that in the 1st post in General) but you should read a bit just to make sure you know what steps to take. Also, language packs are available if you need a language other than English, French or Spanish, but there may be some complications.
I would advise you against using any type of one click rooting method. The Xoom is easy to unlock and root, but is more complicated than many phones. On the plus side, it's pretty hard to brick as long as you follow instructions. Prepare to use adb and you'll do fine. Once you've unlocked and flashed the US image, you will get the OTA updates as soon as you are on a wifi connection. This is where you need to see which rooting method will be best for you. You will need to install the Tiamat Clockwork Mod Recovery 3.2.0.0 (from solarnz's thread) so you can flash from the micro sdcard) There are ways to root from 3.0, 3.1 and from 3.2. Head over to the Development section and look for what you want. Once you are rooted, check out the Team Tiamat Xoom Rom 2.0 Manta Ray. It really rocks. You will have to wipe user data for many of these steps, so don't bother with setting up more than you have to until you are at you final destination, so to speak.
Good luck!
I'm not really a newbie on XDA, but I just got my Transformer TF101 today and have a few questions. I know I risk repeating some existing questions, but still have no clear answers after searching and reading this forum for a couple of days and would appreciate some advice.
I have a serial number on the bottom of the device as B50KASxxxxxx - I've read about B60 rootable and B70/B80 non-rootable. What's my B50? Is it safe to root? Did I get an older model (from newegg.ca) - any disadvantages? Edit - I found this one, looks like it's rootable.
I have firmware 8.2.3.9-20110423 - should I install OTA update before rooting and custom rom, or just do custom rom install right away?
What is considered the best and most stable custom rom that has a status bar hide option?
At this moment, what is the must up to date and easiest guide to safe rooting and installing custom rom? The ones I found seem a bit outdated, not sure which one to follow...
Some (or all?) custom roms have status bar hide option included, but none mentions how to control it, hide/restore bar. How does it work in practice? Annoying bar is my main reason to root it...
In your opinion, is it better to root it and use stock roms, or install custom roms?
Thanks!

Don't guess. Yes, I'm familiar with searching and was searching a reading for two days before writing this. I might have missed something but there is too much information. BTW thank you for your link but it does not have any reference to B50, which was one of my questions.
An even if I missed answers to some of my questions, there are no clear anwers to others, or they might be outdated.
your right.that thread wasn't the answer. i said it was a start.it DOES mention the B50. and 2 days of searching? come one man there's @ least 3 threads in general alone that answer this. Do i know the answer? yes. will i tell you? no. SEARCH HARDER. i dnt care if you think im not being helpful but the fact of the matter is im trying to help you help yourself. good luck buddy

You might have issues with understanding what I write, or you just have not read it. I don't mind you not reading it - you don't have to after all, but if you do - please pay attention before replying in quite an arrogant way. As I said - I only get my TF101 today - an hour ago actually, so I could not possibly search for B50 for two days, duh! I added this question to others when typing this message, to avoid writing several messages.
As I also said, some of my questions can possibly be found through searching (although it's always good to get an up to date opinion), while others I can't find so far. Yes, I found an answer to B50 question - although not in your thread. But others are still relevant to me.
You don't have to help me - but it won't hurt to be polite and avoid arrogant replies even to ones that in your opinion did something wrong.
-I have a serial number on the bottom of the device as B50KASxxxxxx - I've read about B60 rootable and B70/B80 non-rootable. What's my B50? Is it safe to root? Did I get an older model (from newegg.ca) - any disadvantages?
B50 is rootable
-I have firmware 8.2.3.9-20110423 - should I install OTA update before rooting and custom rom, or just do custom rom install right away?
Make no different since you're installing custom ROM anyway.
-What is considered the best and most stable custom rom that has a status bar hide option?
They're all good IMO. Best if you flash them and decide for yourself. IIRC Revolver has the option to hide status bar. There are apps to do it. I'm using HoneyBar on Prime (Hidebar is good too).
-At this moment, what is the must up to date and easiest guide to safe rooting and installing custom rom? The ones I found seem a bit outdated, not sure which one to follow...
NVFLash
-Some (or all?) custom roms have status bar hide option included, but none mentions how to control it, hide/restore bar. How does it work in practice? Annoying bar is my main reason to root it...
Usually just have to press a button or somewhere on the tab, not too hard to figure out.
-In your opinion, is it better to root it and use stock roms, or install custom roms?
That's for you to decide, everyone is different. Keep in mind all the "custom" ROM right now are base on stock ROM but tweaked to be faster ect....
Thanks! I appreciate your help.
I successfully rooted it (with kit) and flashed Revolver

What my fellow smart asses are trying to say is: don't worry, you are at the right place. Everything you need to find out about your phone is located here in this forum, but you need to do some reading in order to find it. What you are concerned with can be located in "stickies"- the threads at top of the forums which are indicated by the thumbtacks at the far left of the thread. Don't be discouraged by all the threads. What you are concerned with are only the stickies. It is in your best interest to devote the time to read through the first page of these stickies BC 1. You don't want to permanently damage your very expensive phone and 2. You will be amazed by what this little device can do once you've done a little homework.
