Hi Developers,
I just want to ask that "i am going to open a blog on iphone and android" does my this idea is good or bad.
Considering the topic and that it's 2012, you'll need really good material and reviews if u want ur blog to be famous.
PS : if ur looking for blog writers, I'm available
As someone who runs one now it is a lot of work. You need tom invest massive amounts of time just to get started, and that's using something easy like Wordpress!

ATTENTION ALL XDA MEMBERS:
*******PLEASE TAKE THE TIME TO READ ABOUT THIS NEW AND IMPORTANT UPDATE COMING TO THE XDA-DEVELOPERS FORUM SELECTION.*********
Hey guys, TweakMan here. I have some wonderful news for you. Coming soon to XDA-Developers, will be new forum section to choose from, dedicated for the sole purpose of helping you!
As most of you have seen. the very first thread in the Development & Hacking Section is the "General Questions & Answer" Thread. It was opened a few months ago, with the intention of helping you get your questions answered. But as you may have noticed, this thread has grown to an enourmous size!
For this reason, an entire new section will be opened and dedicated to this purpose! It will be the same concept as the current "Question & Answer" Thread, but will be far more organized, therefore helping answer your questions faster!
The original concept still stands. No question and no comment, no matter the subject, device, or reason, will be turned away from this new section. Any question, about any device,theme, program, or situation, can be posted here, and WILL NOT BE OVERLOOKED!!!
Now, in the past, it has been hard, and sometimes impossible to post a question in any section other than "Development & Hacking" , and actually get an answer to that question, but with this update, this is all about to change. If you have ever used the currenct Q&A Thread, you know that you will get the help you need, and get it as fast as possible. With this new section, things will work the same and better!
Wether you are a junior member, who has owned a PPC for two days, or a Senior Member, who has owned 10 PPC's and wrote 30 applications, this thread is perfect for you! If you ever have a question, from what the name of a theme is or how to power on your device, all the way up to coding programs or cracking applications, you are welcome here.
So please watch for the opening of this new forum section. By agreeing to use it, you are not only helping your self, but you are helping your fellow XDA members, and that is what this site is for. Thanks for your time, and I hope to see you there soon!!
PS:
If you are currently an active perticipant in the "General Questions & Answers Thread" in the Development & Hacking Section, please read the update in the first post of the thread. And thank you for your past support, and the support I know you will show in the new sections. You guys have made this possible, and this is for you!!!

I am no longer able to post questions or respond to questions in dev forums. What am I missing here?
I tried to post on a HTCHD2 forum and the message I got was if you have less than 10 total posts, you aren't allowed to post. I found that very frustrating as I (i) had an answer for someone (which was educated) and (ii) couldn't ask a very specific question about a significant problem I was experiencing with the mod. So, now I'm trying to post 10 "meaningful" posts...argh.
Gents,
The rule was put in place for very specific reasons, in that new members were spamming the develpoment forums with questions that if they had bothered to search would have found the answers.
This nuisance was putting developers off; i mean what good is a develepor forum without developers???????
The correct place for questions is the Q&A forum NOT developer forums. You should ONLY be posting there if you are a contributing to the thread/development or be dev'ing yourself.
Trust this explains why, enjoy the forums and please be aware of what you are posting where.
Cheers.
Tim.
Thanks, and I do understand the thought process. But, it's discouraging to see people with 300+ posts that are posting ill-educated and noobish questions, while I couldn't post a question which was valid and I had done my research...even the developers are sometimes poor about how the threads are used. By the way, likely most of the users here are gents, but not me...:> After posting some thoughtful replies elsewhere, I was finally able to post on the "proper" forum. I do think you are getting a lot of questions in the general Q&A which would best be addressed in the proper forum, but they can't post there...Anyway, have a great day!! And, thanks for replying to us.
Okay, so you would rather questions in the Q&A section rather then in the threads dedicated to the ROMS?

The rule had said that it was applied to users that joined after a certain date but members that have been here for awhile but acquired new posts were also affected when it was put into place.
i have some questions about developing roms and i'm willing to learn and get started.
i posted my question in the Q&A Forum 19 Vies now answers on page 2 allready.
My question are directly pointed to develop roms for samsung galaxy tab. so the dev's who could help getting me started have to read but they can't since they won't look in here.
Great ^^
Frustrating because frequently no replies. For example, I posted a question - 77 views, 0 replies. However, at least I can now post on the relevant forum! LOL.
have a great day...
Hey Guys n Gals,
Let me make this clear for avoidance of doubt.
Device specific forums generally have their own Q&A section, so if it is device specific, ask it in there.
If it isnt device specific ask it in here.
Dont ask general questions in developer forums for example "how do i root my xxxxxx" , they will get moved to Q&A or at worst deleted.
These are the rules, they are here for everyones guidance and to prevent dev forums from being cluttered with n00b questions.
Trust this makes things crystal clear, if not feel free to pm me.
Cheers.
Thread Closed.

why ????????????????????
Probably because the forum is called "Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking".
Your thread neither developed something nor hacked something.
People should not post question in development forums.
can u tell me y i cant reply in most forums plz?
You need to have at least 10 usefull posts (i.e. helping others) befor you are allowed to post in development related forums.
The forums moderators hope that by that time, the users won't neglected the xda rules and start asking questions in DEVELOPMENT related forums.
Make some good posts helping people and the moderators will unlock your account for other forums.
seriously, I wish I could help as many people as I can. But without even getting a good channel to air my questions, my knowledge standard is too poor to even help myself.
Are you following my post ?
You don't need posts to get knowledge and experience....
Just time to READ!
Usually even using google is enough to answer most questions.
Still most people are too lazy to use google befor making a new thread....
Imagine yourself you are a Mod and you have to dialy move dozens of threads just because members do not take care of reading what every section is intended for?
We would like to ask your cooperation to make the forum sections the more clean as possible, remember this is General section, and as it describes:
General
Anything that involves all of the phones and doesn't fit in any of the other fora.
All Questions like the recurrent "what phone should I buy" should go to Q&A section, threads will be moved or deleted.
Please help us!
With the number of users that we have on this site, we rely on users to show maturity, self restraint, respect and civility to others, a significant level of responsibility and, above all, to do their bit to engender an environment that is self policing and tolerant. If we all did this then you definitely would not need moderators to come in and clear out the mess every 10 seconds.

Hi all,
Just a reminder that we have now an Android General section where you can place all your general stuff related to the OS.
Remember here at XDA we cover many other OS´s as well.
Please use the new section!
Hi,
I'm just want to know a bit about everybody here and the whole app development community in general.
Why do you guys come to the forum?
I'm part of a few open source forums, and I feel they are different than the ones here... in the sense that there is no central project to it.
So I was wondering why and how people come here and whether there is any type of cooperation that takes place...
in other words, do you guys think you work together and help each other out?
and if so, in what way?

erm...thanks. Sorry for that.
The thing is that I was going to change the title to discussion rather than question. but wasn't able to.
I really wanted it as a discussion more than anything else.
But thanks for moving it anyhow.
I've personally joined this forum for the huge amount of information on here supplied by very knowledgeable members.
It does make posting here very hard, as:
1-If you search the forum, the answer is definitely somewhere to be found
2-There's always a senior member here to help solve your problems or point to in the right direction

and what sort of information are you looking for.
Is it something specific, like a problem with your device.
Or is it general, like hints and tips, or tutorials?
