ICS tester here!

kindly send me msg if you have something to test(new release, apps etc) for i9003 for free! its because i use it also, might as well help ....hehehhe
which lead me to wonder if we have bugtracker of some sort(yeah i read threads for i9003 custom roms and noticed the bugs are reported in those threads)

You had to create a NEW THREAD for this?
You could have just posted it at the ICS CM9 or ICS MIUI thread?!

i would if i was allowed to post in dev section ...

Don't be so mean, if there's a qna thread for ics point him to it, no need to tell him off. Its a general thread, I've seen people post threads called 'official off topic thread's with it stickied and 'general thread here!'. I don't know if there is a qna for ics, if I would I would point it to him.

an easy way to do it would be for OP to get the files he wants and start testing, while browsing the forum and commenting appropriately on things they have questions about, etc. since I've heard there's a 10 post minimum before posting in the dev section, I'm sure reading around will help give them an idea how the forum works, and help the apparently unavoidable NOOB FLAME when questions are asked inappropriately. that may be part of the reason for the posting limit, you know
so, cyborg5, why not get those files, install, and read around a bit while taking notes of things you find in testing, and when you reach 10 posts you'll be able to provide feedback in the appropriate place?

thanks.. ive installed this port for 2 weeks now..problems i found were already posted, so to be safe..i didnt repost..and i also found this(tester call in irc)

For a novice post to the general or q&a forums.

Have you tried using the search functionality? It's likely others have experienced the same problem as you and the question has already been answered somewhere

ok. I understood. many many thanks for all who repply this post.. !!!

Welcome

Just so you know, questions ARE NOT meant to go into the development threads. Those are for bug reports only..NOT QUESTIONS. This is part of the reasoning behind needing 10 posts. It is in the hopes that you will learn these things first. There is a Q&A forum for questions.

Mr. I understand what you mean... maybe Iam write the wrong words.. its not a question what I need to do, its a bug on that room what I installed on my samsung skyrocket... and because have that bug on my phone I need to put a repply so maybe the room developer fix that bug.... however.. thanks for your repply . . .

Was wondering the same question too..

Heya
mee too.

Mods need to close this thread, else it will become another one of those "I want 10 posts, so I'll get them from here" threads...

So just posting in the general section is how you get to the 10 post limit. Is what I understand.

Questions are not posted in the development sub sections of specific device's forums. They are posted in the Q&A sections.

See here.....this is a view of all the sub sections for the SkyRocket. Ask questions in Q&A.

You need to make like 10 posts in non development threads before you can post in the development section.

Just go around and give a simple thank you to all the Devs in the general section. You'll be at 10 posts before you know it. I had the same problem as you did. Now all is well

Right?
I have been lurking for years, but only recently did I obtain anything useful to say, but it would not allow me to. So when I went to post on the thread I was like,
RAAAAAAGGGGGEEE!!!!!!
But I suppose it would not hurt the forums out to have a few miscellaneous general discussion posts.

This is your answer:
Please read forum rules before posting

I too am frustrated by the 10 post rule - I'd be happy to help out answering questions if I knew what I was doing enough to contribute, but I don't. How am I supposed to learn if I can't ask questions? Just doesn't really make sense to me . . .

You can help and ask questions...in the Q/A section. We all had to do it so it's not like you're the first to be saddled with these limitations.

Guess I assumed this forum wasn't really designed for questions regarding rooting the phone. I pictured it more as a troubleshooting section / more general forum and thought questions regarding rooting a phone were for the developer thread. Perhaps I got my wires crossed

Oh nah Q/A is perfect for all GSIII questions haha I guarantee if you post a new thread about anything that is not your developed rom/mod/kernel in either dev section, you'll be met with a lot of negativity. I'm not even joking. A good tip to know is: when in doubt, post it in the Q/A section. Typically post in a developer thread if you're reporting bugs or helping someone else in that thread similar to what I'm doing right now with you. Only create a new thread in either development section if you developed something and want to share it.

Unofficial PACMAN Build 2

Too new to post in dev forum, but wanted to note that in build two my exchange calendar synced without issue. In build one it would not do so. Great ROM. Appreciate the work.

Camera not working
Hi,
I really dont know whether this will be replied or no as i'm new to the Forum and unable to find an answer!
After installing the PACman ROM on Samsung Galaxy R, everything is great but on my Camera is not working, I'm getting an error "COULD NOT CONNECT TO THE CAMERA" please help.

I have a feeling you posted this thread just to get your 10 up

Brad I dont know what made you feel that, and I think I have registered myself to XDA site to get answers for my question and thats the main objective of this site to help other Android users. You may be technically smart with Android and I'm not so I will ask questions and I'm not concerned about the 10 posts or whatever. Secondly I installed PACman ROM but Whats app is not functioning,so I you are a senior member kindly help, it will be appreciated.

Hi,
Please ask your question here.
It is a general Question and Answer thread in the Galaxy R forum. Any of your questions about the Galaxy R should go into its Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting forum, or into the thread I have indicated.
Cheers

Hi,
Please try and post into the correct section or at least into the General section for your device. I don't see how the ROM developer will ever find this thread, especially since you don't mention which device it is for. Seeing how you now have your 10 posts and can post into Dev threads, be a little bit careful with posts like this one. In some Development threads it will be OK as you are confirming that a previously broken feature is now fixed, but in other Development threads it may be considered out of bounds -especially if there is a change log indicating the fix. You will have to look at what's being posted, how it is being received and then trust your judgement.
Cheers

[Q] Dual Boot - Using previous Nandroid Backup to Restore 2nd Rom?

Hi XDA,
My first post so I hope I have followed the correct procedures.
I have searched for this and haven't found anything that solves this.
My question is this:
I have a Nandroid backup of my PACMAN ROM on my SDCard (It has everything set perfectly to how I like and runs amazing).
Now I am going to fully wipe device and Dual Boot my device using a TW Rom (not sure which yet) as primary and PACMAN as secondary.
I wanted to know if I could restore my secondary rom (PACMAN) using the backup I have created previously?
If I need to do something specific (updating scripts or such) I am wiling to do so and i am not afraid of getting a bit deeper into this.
I have been following rlorange's thread, chenxiaolongs and Graraks also but nothing seems to address this.
Would it be possible to use rlorange's backup tool before I wipe (creating a 2nd backup of the same rom and its state) then use it to restore my 2nd ROM after flashing/dual booting?
Something tells me I can't but I just cant find enough info on this to answer this myself so I'm hoping you bright sparks could help me?
I hope thats not too n00by and thanks for reading

If you have a i9505, you should post in its Q&A forum, as someone may be able to give you better answers in that forum, due to their experience with such a device. IF you have any other device, you should mention details of it, even though your question is about using a Nandroid backup . posting in general discussions may not be wise IMHO or you can PM the member whose thread you are following or wish to follow for some guidance or doubts that you have.

Many thanks for the advice. I was under the impression as I'm very new I had to post here until I had 10 posts.

its only limited in development forums, to reduce spam and already addressed questions, that are found in Q&A forums for your specific device. SO you can always post in any other forum and mostly advised to post in your device specific Q&A forum for best answers
BTW you only have few more posts and post limitations are gone
