Try spending some time reading the forums and getting to know your way around. It's mostly smartphone based queries, obviously, but there's often software development questions in the general forums, and people are always grateful for good advice.
Just get to know the place and see what you can get and what you can give back.

[Q] New to rooting

Hi, I'm planning on rooting this weekend when I have the time. I also plan to flash a custom rom. So, does anybody have any suggestions for a sense jelly bean rom? I've been eyeing viperxl, so any feedback on viper would be greatly appreciated as well. Thanks.

Best rom threads are frowned upon. Try out the ones that you think will be best for you. Also, questions should go in Q&A. Glad to have new people, hope everything goes well for you.

I'm just going to save myself a bunch of typing and quote redpoint

Q's go in the "Q&A" subforum.
And "Best ROM" threads are frowned upon here. There is no good answer to this question, as everyone has different preferences and needs. Further, suggesting one ROM over another, is an insult to the devs, as it suggests that the other ROMs are somehow inferior (when its largely a matter of personal taste). These discussions often devolve into a popularity contest. And just because a ROM is popular, does not mean it will be the best for you.
Just look through the ROMs, pick a few to flash (with the features you want), and see what you like best.
The ROM threads usually indicate very clearly what works, and what doesn't. If not in the top post, just reading through the last few pages of the more recent responses to that thread will often answer your questions.

Moderating from my One Xl

[Q]

Quick question, since I am new to all of this.... Any advice or help in right direction, would be much appreciated.
I own a HTC Desire HD / Inspire 4G. I would like to root the phone and have been reading up on all the different roms to choose from.... which, honestly, is very overwhelming.
I realize that one rom is not better than another rom, rather they are different in the features they have and offer to the user. However, I would like to know if anyone from experience can offer me some insight on the following roms please (ie: pros, cons, features offered, bugs/issues):
1. JellyTime
2. Android Revolution
If the above two are outdated or you have a different rom to recommend.... I would appreciate the input. Thanks in advance! :victory:

[Completed] Suggest a dev for photo stitching app

Hi, I'm completely new to the forum and a complete novice coder (even novice is an overstatement).
I'd like to develop an app that involves photo stitching, panoramic functions and some other cool features that can be discussed after securing an NDA.
I'm currently working on a wire frame and graphic design for buttons, icons, GUI, etc, but need someone who is good at programming these types of apps, initially for Android, later porting to iOS.
Any and all recommendations for specific individuals, dev teams or companies would be greatly appreciated. I'm an individual entrepreneur with a little capital, but far from "deep pockets", so unfortunately, cost is a big factor. Looking for best bang/buck. Thanks fellas!

Nobody care to help out a noob? It'd be much appreciated. Thanks!

Cool, thanks man. I guess I'm used to forums that are far more crowded and if you don't get an answer in a day, your post gets completely buried and likely will never get a reply. Thanks for the heads up and sorry the betting impatient.

Hey Raj, thanks, but I'm not looking to code an app myself, I'm looking for a dev that I can pay to create one. I tried to learn C++.....i didn't get much past "Hello world!" til I realized I just plain suck at coding! Lol

Sorry about that but i can't help you in this job.
You can try to ask in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2257421
Good luuck

Thanks, but I'm getting the feeling that this forum is more for devs to discuss coding itself, and not so much find jobs coding. I think I'll try my luck on Craigslist. Thanks for the help though.

Difference Between a 'Noobie' and a 'Newbie'

Hello everyone!
I usually see people refering new member as a 'noob'. They shout at new members like they should be gifted knowledge by God since their birth!
BUT, there's big difference between Noobs and New. I hope you'll understand my point of view.
Let me tell you difference as a definition:
●Noobies: These are those people who are either new or old to existing condition. But they never want to learn. They ask question like "I can't do this" instead of asking "How to do this?"
They are usually pain in the... and they are born to irritate developers. Because of them, thread gets some unnecessary posts. NO developer force any member to flash their ROM or Kernel. Developers love when people report bugs in their ROM but hey wait! There's two method of reporting (let's see two method by two examples):
1). Noobs: Useless ROM, doesn't support call recording feature.
Good members: Can you please add call recording feature in next build? Else ROM is perfect. Thank you.
2). Noobs: Why do you even make a ROM that doesn't support VoLTE? Please leave XDA. (!)
Good members: Hello, your ROM is so smooth. I have great experience so far. Just want to know if you can somehow add VoLTE in your next build. It's really a requirement in India. Thank you!
Till now, you can easily differentiate between Noobies and other members
●Newbies: These are totally new people who are new to existing condition but they always wants to gather information somehow. They always try first and search for info themselves rather than asking aimlessly.
Always remember, we were newbie too at first.
Differentiating is pretty hard here. But you've to make sure to NEVER act rudely with them. They are new, if they don't get support, they'll loose interest in Android and XDA.

Best you can do is that check their total post count on XDA.

Simillar thread by me: https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/general/hard-brick-soft-brick-terminology-t3598335

I must say you did a good job differentiating between noob and newbies:laugh:
It would be much better/easier to suggest all the noob user's to use XDA's search plus feature
