Why are ROM suggestion threads disappearing? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727

Its incredibly annoying. Do mods not realize how useful it is for people to know what the most usable/stable ROMs are instead of spending months of trial and error to figure it out? Never been on a device forum that's so overzealous in thread locking.

Rom suggestion threads count as "x rom is better than y rom" threads, which lead to arguments and flaming (which has actually happened)
I wish people weren't dumb enough to start fighting over roms because threads like that could be useful. Like me, I know nothing about rooting and roms. If I wanted to root and flash a rom, I'd have to spend potentially hours reading about different roms to decide on one that won't mess my phone up.
Sucks, but that's the way it is.

Some would say "that's being spoon fed information", but I'd rather be on here asking for a good rom than asking why my phone won't start up.

Because its personal preference and nobody is exactly the same those threads cause issues amongst users and developers alike this thread needs locked

Well wrong section. Now as to why I don't allow them because suggestions are subjective to each user, lead to "mine is better than yours" which then leads to flame wars. Also if you don't want to read and try them out yourself you might be in the wrong forum. Thread locked

[Apology] Bring the Hox Community Together

This community here has been strong, informative and helpful to many Hox users. IMO, it has also been used to flame, disrespect, and challenge personal opinions in several threads. I myself have fallen into this pit. I just wanted everyone to read a thread posted in the EVO LTE forums from a person whom not only fell into this pit himself, but recognized it and publically corrected himself to better bring back his community. Im not implying anything against the Hox community, but just hope it can serve as an example, that we stand stronger united and can/will accomplish much more as individual minds coming together. Not individuals thinking a mind. Please click the link below, to read how this xda member noted his closed mindness, and forfeited it for the good of his community.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=29136185
With this said, there are great feats still to be accomplished for the Hox devices. Let's all put our 2 cents in where we can, put away the other 98, and make these feats into accomplishments!!

Thank you for acknowledging that we can all do better here. We many times don't have the patience to help out others. I know I don't post all the time in the forums but I read alot and find that people want to attack and take offence, putting everyone out. I like coming here and hope we can continue the great development and improving our devices.

Agreed. I was a victim of that for my very first post. I was GRILLED for not searching first when I actually did. Beings I didn't know my way around the threads and it was my 3 day old first android phone. Ppl are looking to learn, receive help, and also give help when able to. Nobody comes here asking to be bashed on or fussed at like a kid. Ill quote all of my reachers when i was in school, "theres no stupid question as long as you're thirsting for knowledge" Let's stick together and help each other out to make it a more enjoyable experience in the forums and also in your android device!!

You also have to understand the flip side of the coin. People come here and start threads to ask the same basic questions that people have answered 500 times already. Questions that would have been easily answered in 10 seconds had they done a search first. Its frustrating.
Yes, there are no stupid questions. Yes we were all noobs at one point. Part of learning is figuring basic out things yourself by doing some research though.

Agreed 100%. There are a million threads that could have been avoided simply by SEARCHING. If you can navigate to XDA using your browser, you have the skills necessary to use the search function. People are just lazy and don't want to do any reading, they'd rather someone just respond with an answer. Super annoying, my .02.

This. It is painfully evident when people don't search even though they say they do when and that's when I'll come in with a snarky post. You can't tell me you searched for the method to root 1.85 when there is a STICKY with the procedure in development, and 4 other threads on the first two pages of Q+A asking the same question, with people providing answers. Sorry, but I don't buy it. If you want me to put forth some effort into helping you, you must put forth the effort to help yourself first.
That all said, if it shows that you did do some research but still need some clarification on a few things, you betcha I will be willing to help to the best of my ability. I may be an asshole sometimes, but I am actually a really nice guy and I do enjoy helping people out. Just don't start our e-relationship on a lie ("I searched, I swear!") and we'll get along famously.
Training noobs, snarky fun posts, they help teach and make xda a fun place. Mostly, I'm referring to the heated debates, and hateful posts that have crippled some of our unreplacable threads and formed hatefulness between members. By all means, I love when an opportunity arises for me to get a few people to laugh, please, keep them coming when you see fit

I agree that there are times where a lot of us get really upset and lose our cool. And that we should try to keep that to a minimum.
But this isn't exactly a forum for extremely basic questions at the same time, even though we all have some from time to time, there are tons of other forums like that though. And some people are obviously trolling too ("HTC done it wrong" guy, lol....)
The only thing that ticks me off about this community are the "should I get a galaxy s3" threads. No one cares. This is an enthusiast forum for the HOX. If you want to talk gs3 go over there.
If this was a BMW enthusiast forum you would be flamed to hell if you wrote a topic like "should I switch to a mustang?".

XDA was a great place even when I joined during the GS1 era. However, it slowly turned into turned to crap with the success Android garnered though. Aside from the flame bait or post-purchase rationalization threads, the general user of this forum feels the developers OWE it to the users to make their devices better, for free. Not even joking. There were some people who expressed that in their posts in the Nexus S forums. Then there are the people who don't even bother to read instructions or stickies and when they brick their device they blame the developers. I like to help people as much as the next guy once being a noob myself, but it ain't fun when I answer the same question I know I answered last week.
Why don't we create a thread specifically for noobs,beginners in android,people who came from iphone and people that are lost in what to do..and put it in Dev thread..entitled "Lost,Confused and Dont know what to Do"..since I think everyone would go to the Dev Thread first before reading the General and Q&A thread..something like Help Support..where anybody can help...

Yes and no. If you're a noob, as we all have been at one point. The first thing that you have to do after joining is watch a little video we are all familiar with. "Use the search button", do your homework, investigate extensively, exhaust every possibility, try a few Rom and kernel combos, before you start asking the same dumb question that has been answered countless times before, in countless different parts of the forums.
Just wished people knew how to search a forum or to Google some more, that is it.

There isn't a fully functioning Jelly Bean ROM yet, but the CM10 ROMs have all the essential stuff working (phone, data, wi-fi, GPS, etc). So try out any one of the CM10 based ROMs. I'm currently on R-M-S CM10, it's feels really stable and optimized.

Weak. This is the first time I've ever been edited out in any thread here on XDA.
I guess the management here didn't want everyone to know what the privileged few really think about the rest of us.
@ OP, just flash away until you find one you like. And don't ever ask for any "best" anything around here. It's really subjective and people around here snap at such questions.

Jelly Bean roms are quite stable. I tested Pyromod's version and I did like it much, today I will test the CM10 build with the dragon kernel.
BTW, am I the only person who experiences strange stutter or maybe I should say, bad touchscreen reponsiveness on JB roms? Animations are fine in general no lag at all, but the phone doesnt register touches properly, and I need to focus a lot more the get around in menus compared to VenomS. I always clean install, so format and wipe everything.

AOKP
I have flashed both the Bruce2728 CM10 Rom and the frankinstine AOKP rom and would have to say the the AOKP is the better of the two. The CM10 ROM has too many issues with wakelock and terrible battery life. The AOKP rom has corrected the Data issues and I am currently getting amazing battery life, going twice as long as I was on the CM10.

Sent From My Sexy Sensation.
Haha I hope the OP isn't using the app, as the search function is shot atm.
Anyway, people have to start somewhere, they might be new to all this. New to forums in general. You can't expect them to know the rules and etiquette of a particular forum right from the word go.
Why not use all that worldly knowledge to direct them to the right delivery of their queries. Instead of being downright rude, and discouraging them from continuing with a thread, and possibly going out and starting another clean one?
Don't get me wrong, it clutters up the boards alright, but I'm not going to flame someone for that reason. Like I said, keep it friendly, and use that same energy you use to rudely come down on them, to direct them on the right path. Essentially, or more so, probably, stopping them from starting another thread!
@OP. Like some have already stated, it really is subjective mate, and comes down to personal choice. Only you will know what's best for you. Once you've mastered the art of ROM Fu, it's great fun flashing new ROMS, making Nandroids, jumping between them, testing them out, modifying them to your liking, and finding what sits right with you.

Taste of beans is just a slightly modified version of incubus26jc tw jb. Follow the incubus26jc thread if you want to see whats coming out. Incubus26jc has been doing all the heavy lifting.

douchey much? you guys are the XDA elite and know so much!!! seriously though did you get punked a lot at school by the bullies so you have to bully here? no one i know who has a real life with either school or a job has time to read every post of every thread, or even every post that shows up in a search one does for a particular topic. even then your bound to quickly skip by it if you are skimming. so instead of being dicks welcome a new member to the community and embrace. either way if the OP wants to reply to this thread 5 for times so you get 10 posts go for it... **** everyone else .i think your question and reason to post is legit and yes i read the rules and yes i have been an xda member probably longer than you have been alive.
looks like the OP has been a member for a while too.. just a lurker and not a poster which to me means he better understands the rules more than anyone

Which has nothing to do with the question I have to ask. The taste of beans was updated TODAY and the Question I wanted to ask was about an update TODAY so regardless if it this is the last update of that Rom or not still doesn't invalidate my question. And for your information I do look through before asking anything and I did also look through incubus26jc thread and realize touchof beans is based on that rom. I may be a noob to XDA (although I signed up a while ago just generally used other android sites) but I'm not new to the rooting, hacking and flashing game. I'm just saying you guys act so Elite in here compared to other sites and it's a very unfriendly atmosphere. You are the proof.

The rules are fantastic, I think it should be more than ten thanked posts personally.
The system works well to get you involved with all that's going on in our little neck of the site. I've enjoyed being active for the short time i have been and the process of being involved has answered most questions I would have posted prior as a complete noobs. If your just seeking answers and not participating there is no reason to even consider clogging the dev section.
It was cool to gain access to the dev area, but I have yet to post there. That's because I haven't needed to. Most things ARE covered in q&a.
Leave the devs alone, post your questions like everyone else and it will be answered.

Anyone here can be fair-minded and act as such.
You came here and unfortunately whined - I saw one of your earlier posts which had almost the exact same complaints at the time, responded to your post to explain that it's the common practice here and why, yet you never followed up.
Who is creating an unfriendly atmosphere?
You don't seem to be respecting the rules or even care to understand why they were written. We're all equal under such rules, except the Admins/Mods.

Which has nothing to do with the question I have to ask. The taste of beans was updated TODAY and the Question I wanted to ask was about an update TODAY so regardless if it this is the last update of that Rom or not still doesn't invalidate my question. And for your information I do look through before asking anything and I did also look through incubus26jc thread and realize touchof beans is based on that rom. I may be a noob to XDA (although I signed up a while ago just generally used other android sites) but I'm not new to the rooting, hacking and flashing game. I'm just saying you guys act so Elite in here compared to other sites and it's a very unfriendly atmosphere. You are the proof.

I just wanted to ask a question in the tastemybeans thread which just received an update today. Since the OP didn't put up a change log I simply wanted to ask if the simultaneous voice and data was fixed in the current build. No one else asked this question but this site makes it impossible to new members to ask a simple question like that.

Well in the interest of stopping this thread before people start getting bana, no the voice and data it's not fixed and according to the incubus thread probably will not be until we see Verizon leaks (since beans is based off incubus).

Because new members generally post new threads in the dev section. They don't read the rules.
I know a lot of others think what I do, there should be a test before getting to post in the dev section. If you fail, no posting, if you pass but don't follow the rules, instant ban.

i will play both devils advocate AND supporter of the rules here...
first i just signed up for an account today and tried to post a q in dev and got booted, so i am in q and a answering post to "prove myself" while i dont like the hassle i understand that someone (maybe alot of people) will come here and download a rom, not follow instructions, then try and flame hard working devs or post questions that have been answered over and over. this HAS to be annoying to other logn term members so i understand the ruels in place...
On the flip side i have been actively reading XDA for a while now, i just never posted questions or thanks... however on a post like the kellywiz rom (which is GREAT, using it now with a few reboots but nothing major) their are 187 pages of comments, do you really expect me to read through all pages to find an answer? i dont... i read the last 5 pages or so and if i dont see anything relevant to my issue i goto ask a question...
I see alot of repeat questions on here, not in separate threads (although i only read threads i am interested in) but multiple "useless" seeming coments to post that ask about a problem that was already answered a few pages ago, but the comment's poster asked again, and they have over 100 post to their credit, but they dont read through post either, so whats the actual difference?
i am not bucikng the system, i have belonged to many forums, but long time posters can be just as or more annoying then new posters...
Good response man. It's like starting a new job, no matter your skill set your gonna be treated as inferior. It's just important to follow the rules and not get mad. Strong thought out arguments should go far and set a precedence for the type of user you are.

ExFat support beyond Touchwiz?

I've been running Vincom's Superlite Official JB for a couple of months because I've found the need to play some 5GB files on my SD. I know the recoveries now support ExFat on our phone, so is this code that can be added in to the other roms (AOSP, AOKP, CM, etc.) as well? I miss the flexibility, speed, and battery of the others even though Sammy and Vincom do a good job with the Touchwiz integration.
Why is this in the dev section you are asking a question and are not providing an original work someone please report.

Read forum rules before posting
Questions go in Q&A
Dev section is sacred ground
Thread moved
FNM
Really? I didn't read the forum rule? I've only been a member since 2006. This board has a rep for being a bunch of a-holes because of these types of policies. It's not like I asked "what is touchwiz" or "how do I reboot into recovery". It's this kind of thing that keeps us from getting even better feature sets and keeps everything so fractured because there are 6000 ROMs that are 90% "there". I've posted plenty of help in the past, though I'm no dev, but I'm done. I'd love to hear someone clearly explain to me how this is a "Q&A" question more than it is a dev question. Now that you've moved it none of this will get any attention anyway so ban me if you like, I can have these conversations elsewhere and still get what I need.
P.S. FWIW my original reply had more about what I really think about crybabies like the original "thread reporter", but at least Kenny was nice enough to PM why he made the move as well, even though I disagree with it. If anyone wants an uncensored response, and my account isn't banned, PM me and I'll gladly share my thoughts about this BS.

You act like you understand the rules yet you decide they are arbitrary. Dev section is for development purposes only as in actually providing work, not some kid who wants to ask a question. Its pretty obvious why it was moved there is no good reason to disagree with it so if you must go elsewhere so be it.

I'm the "thread reporter". It was in the wrong place. I reported it. I gave you the benefit of the doubt and figured it was a mistake. I also tried to save you from the "wrong place" posts. Had I known you where actually just an idiot I wouldn't have done it. People like you are the problem with XDA. Don't try to turn the tables. Respect the rules or leave.
Looks like there's no reason it can't be done with fuse. Someone has a flashable zip for the s3 and cm10.1. I don't see any kernel modules in the zip so you might be able to use it on the skyrocket.

Yeah, that's a good thread. Seems quite do-able, just guess few people care because they haven't yet started dealing with large files.

No its a legitimate question that has nothing to do with what the dev section is for maybe you should learn to read and go back over the rules.

Says the 3 month member. I'm done, rookie. Respond away, but lart2150 offered a good thread, it's clearly a good question even if you're too stupid to realize it, and it's clearly not going to get any attention because of stupidity like this. I get that's how it is, no sense in fighting it. Just wanted to get the truth out there, I've said my peace, so flame away. Being around for 7 years (well, the last 3-4 here anyway) has taught me that douches like you must be heard if nothing else. So have at it.

Lollipop ROM Dev Funding

MOD EDIT
Don't mean to sound rude but it appears that you have never developed anything before. Also your previous threads show that you have trouble rooting your phone and even installing roms.
Is there a track record that can show us what you can do?
This is by far the worst post / thread I've ever seen and in my opinion should be deleted. There was just a discussion the other day and"Devs" who bait ppl into funding them by talks of a "rom" being developed. Your past threads show mainly work on Galaxy phones, and 1 of the very few HTC topics was a thread u started a as not even knowing how to root this phone, yet u claim to have a rom in the works. A real dev would at least show some samples of their work instead of saying"hey ppl, send money for new phone(s) and I'll build u all a rom. If I'm wrong about this, mods please feel free to delete my post and/or PM me, but this seems like a blatant attempt at trolling/baiting people into funding a new phone for u. PEOPLE, PLEASE BE CAUTIOUS IN SITUATIONS SUCH AS THIS,DON'T GO JUMPING IN HEAD FIRST AND OPENING YOUR WALLET TO PEOPLE WITH NO TRACK RECORD,ESPECIALLY WHEN L's RIGHT AROUND THE CORNER.
And if I'm wrong, my apologies, but again,this was just discussed the other day (forget exactly which thread), but your not really giving anybody ANYTHING to go on.
I'm shocked a mod haven't closed this thread
Note from the Mod: While we do have eyes, we only have 2 of our own It is our members most times who help stop these things by bringing them to our attention via PM or simply using the report button.

Myself as well. Thread has been reported to 2 different mods... Normally I'm not the type at all to report anything/anybody, but this is BLATANTLY baiting people..
Thread Closed.
While we appreciate anyone's willingness to contribute their Development to XDA, asking for money/donations violates our site policy with regards to RULE 13
Thank you for your efforts.
