How am I supposed - General Questions and Answers

So I don't fully understand everything I read on here. I am learning but when I have a specific question regarding a process how can I ask the developer if I am new on the site. I am trying to back down to v7 on my Lg Revo but my cpu is running 64 bit so my the dll won't install properly. They gave a fix for it but I don't fully understand how to do it but I can't ask the guys who know. Please help me.

You have to have 10 useful posts on the general xda forum before you can post to an xda developer thread.

Cannot post in Android Developers Thread

Hey.
I'm new to posting here, however found it more than necessary to begin my journey to be a frequent poster to the forum .
Hello.
However it seems that to do this i would like to ask inside a developers forum how to solve an issue with my current mobile device.
Is there a way i can gain access? Ask a Mod?
Or do i just wait.
My device is unusable at this stage and help is really needed.
Thread im trying to post into; http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1103399&page=216
Thanks.
EDIT:
I now have access, i guess i am inpatient
you have to post 10 times in general fourms and be approved to post by mods in developer fourms. That keeps newbees from clogging up the important forms.
thanks i was wondering how to post there too,i need to ask some things about void rom there
Besides if your just asking questions you shouldn't be posting in development threads anyway.

I wish there was an easier way. I have legitimate posts to add to some Developer threads. I'm always trying new things for ROM's, since there's nothing else to do while I wait for the Prime and Vigor to be released...

Looks like I am not allowed to post so I cannot request for activation. I just have to find another rom. Well, its the 3rd rom for this phone anyway. Just have to try them all until I find the sweet rom. Back to CM 9.1 for now.
Same. Boo.

[Completed] Where do we post, in the main XDA Assist forum, or its subforum?

I am confused as to where requests for assistance should be posted. Do I see a forum -- and a subforum?
We have XDA Assist, which is unlocked to new posts, and then we have Post New Thread, also unlocked and accepting new posts.
I read the documentation for the main forum, and thought I'd post my assistance request there. I only saw there was another area after I posted in the first area.
Or does it make no difference? Sorry, but if this information is already available, somewhere, please give me a link. Couldn't find it!
It depends on your problem. The nature of XDA Assist is to help users in looking for the right place for their issue. For Ex. for your phone, we do not have a Sub Forum Defined. So you'd go to
> Android Development and Hacking
forum. Within it, you can either post in Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting if you have a problem you can't solve. Other wise if its a general discussion on the phone, you can post in Android General
Does that make sense ?
Question that started this thread is answered, may be closed.

Well ... still confused.
Maybe the threads XDA Assist and Post New Thread, are in fact one and the same?
They seemed to be separate, but perhaps I should take note of the first few posts in each, and see if they're the same?
Anyway, I posted in the XDA Assist thread, and it seems to be working -- I see my other post has one reply.
No one else seems confused, so I guess it's just me. :silly:
Different question from different thread answered, both threads may be closed.
So, I'll go to --
> Android Development and Hacking
and then, since it's not a problem needing troubleshooting but just something general on how Android works (I doubt it's phone specific) I think I'll put it into 'Android General'.
Thanks for pointing me in the right direction! And the instructions for this forum say the moderator will close the thread when the advice has been given, so please feel free to do so, now.

[Completed] New member learning the ropes

Hi
I am sorry to come here and spam this forum.
It takes 10 post to get into a developers section to ask an question and I do not have very much questions to ask other than matters of SailfishOS.
I hope not to get too much spanking here until my 10 posts are done and get rights to ask something that matters :crying:

Hi there,
Please read the thread bellow related to your question:
Postcount limit in developmental fora
If you have some problems to report about some ROM, please use the thread opened in the Questions&Answers forum for your device (you don't tell us what device you own)
Good luck
My attempt was to get a question thrown to this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-7/development/rom-sailfish-os-alpha-t2859817
Asking about Sailfish OS ROM for Nexus7 3G model (tilapia).
But then, I cannot or I should not post there since it is a developer section.
I'll guess this is the more appropriate place to ask a question.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/jolla-sailfish/general
By the way. Thanks for the guidance. After reading a bunch of guides, this huge site became more understandable. I have been reading this site for years but now is the first time when it seems that there is not a ready answer for a question.

[Completed] Problems with PA titan's rom

Hello. Given that I can't write to the appropriate forum, I'll write here, hoping someone can help me.
I've installed the latest PA rom for titan (Motorola Moto G 2014), but often and suddenly it freezes, the monitor becomes black and I can't access anymore my phone.
I've to try to flash again (and again and again.......) the rom and hope it works well again.
Have someone ever experienced it? Can someone help me to avoid it or to quickly recover it?
Thank you in advance for any answer.
Hi!
I see you did ask about this awhile ago in your proper device section. But you can post in the rom thread, your post will be automatically redirected to the roms dedicated Q&A thread in the Q&A section.
(You could browse around your device section and contribute some constructive posts in other threads... After 10 posts, you can post directly in the rom thread)
Xda Assist is here to help navigate the site, not for support, and since you know where your section is.... There's no more we can do for you here. :good:
Good luck!
