Community issues: Campaign for a fresh start

Hi guys,
You probably already know me from my other threads, mostly the support thread. If not, I would like to give a brief introduction: in june, I received an upgrade from at&t and decided to purchase the infuse 4g my first android phone.
I was thrilled with its performance, and the community started off strong. ROM's were coming out surprisingly fast, actually too fast for me to figure out which one I liked best.
I began to see that the developers threads were getting cluttered up with silly, often repeated questions, so I created a support thread to help lessen the load for the devs. I know it wasn't a perfect solution, but I helped build a small team of people who have been incredibly helpful so far, who I am beyond impressed with.
Now comes the bad part. Even my support thread, originally designed to avoid clutter, has become a landfill of lazy people who don't look for the answer to their question which has been asked and answered 30 times already.
All the devs have been subjected to so much bs that they are afraid to even release their work. Everyone flames everyone like crazy, but none of you guys can help the community. I am disgusted by most of your behaviors, and hope that you see how childish your arguments are.
Now, for my point: this community is still young, and we have accomplished so much already. We have the chance to have one of the strongest development teams out there, and a kick-ass community, in which we look out for each other's best interest.
I would like to propose a way to get things started again: we need a campaign to delete clutter/flame.
Neo works hard, but we need to help him out. Everyone, I urge you to look through your posts, find bad ones, and mark them in some way to be deleted. This is in order to resuscitate this potentially unbeatable community.
Thank you all, and I hope you understand my intentions

constructive crticism welscome
Moderator's(Neo) intervention was required as gtg's thread was going out of control.
as after his intervention members have started behaving themselves and Neo has removed/locked unnecessary threads this forum is at peace.
let the dead bury the dead and do not remind people again of what happened.
Just post relevant stuff and that is sufficient for everybody.
P.S.
if issues are not resolved then it never will be as no one will accept blame and any such thread will eventually result in blame game.
right now see that people are just paying attention to information,now calling them for campaign is also a distraction.

Hey, thanks for sharing your opinion with me in a respectful manner. However, I feel that the issue is not yet resolved, and the general forum is definitely the appropriate place to post it. The development is virtually at a standstill and I am not talking about gtg, but the other devs and would be devs who are now discouraged. I find that although your response was polite, it was completely inappropriate, especially considering what my original post stated. If you have an issue with my posts please message in private as opposed to calling me out/ racking up your post count.

I doubt the devs read half the crap, and know that most if the quiet folks really enjoy there work, and in no means are they scared to
release there work, but rather punish and don't release, which its necessary to shut alt of people up, can always find them on irc

I'm glad you guys are willing to help out in getting this show on the road. This can only be done by helpful members, especially the ones who read the rules and abide by them.
I think the main issue at hand is that people tend to speak their mind too often, in situations where a moderator should intervene. The best course of action is to report a post or PM a mod (for the Infuse, that's me ) and let them know what's going on.
I'm not on the board 24/7, so I too can miss stuff. But there are ALWAYS other mods who look after the Infuse forums when I can't, so reporting is the BEST thing you can do.
About "rebooting" the community: People are already getting annoyed by the lazy, demanding types, who don't use the search and just post another question which has been asked a million times before. Well, at least if it's in the Q&A forum, it's controlled. So that's our main focus for now: get people to ask their questions there, instead of the development or general forums.
This thread can stay open, as long as it's constructive criticism. All ideas are welcome, as long as it helps us out, right?

Neo just as you posted this I was editing my post in this thread.
I was concerned that this thread doesn't become a place for blaming other members or finding faults of others.as long as this stands for supporting devs my vote is there.
Right now I think forum is going well

I wasn't aware that there was a Q&A forum until you mentioned it. I'm using the xda app and have the SAMSUNG Infuse 4g as my favorite, but within that category, the Q&A forum isn't listed. I clicked onto the forum tab and scrolled till I found the Q&A forum. Yeah people can search for it, but I wasn't even aware that forum existed. I just suggest adding the forum into the Infuse 4g category. I think there will be less questions asked in the wrong section if it was listed.

I am guilty of posting topics that I know have been disgust before, the issue that I have and others I'm sure is that the search feature from the app seems to search the entire forum. I think it would be great if a filter feature could be added.

My app shows the Q&A section. But it didn't until I reinstalled. Had to reinstall it after I put CM7 on.

To get the new subforum to show on the app you have to re-add the infuse forum to your favorites.

I think alot of people like myself are new android users. I knew nothing 3 months ago about Android then I got the infuse my first smartphone which seems like its a lot of peoples first android. So I admit I posted questions then went and found the answer when I got no replies. I think people just need to understand that this is very fresh for a lot of people. It was ridiculous on gtg's post but on the other hand people got so angry at othrs that knew very little.

And I think another reason why we see a lot of similar topics being posted especially regarding support is because new users (like myself) feel we need support about our specific situation, even tho we may have already read a similar thrend. Its happened to me were I posted help and either ill get a smart reply ie "its been posted 10 times already" or they may reply with a link. The link will be exactly what I've already read but, the thrend doesn't 100% pertain to my situation so I'm afraid I may mess up even more if I follow those steps (its actually already happened,my first brick) This is why we may see a lot of repeat thrends. I usually will encourage my support giver to pm me but I hardly receive any.

Why not have a separate section for rom support? I realize that sounds goofy but in the rom thread could be development related questions and in support section help and tech support?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using XDA App

Well, xda-developers is for... DEVELOPERS. Although most people on xda are in it for the custom roms and leeching of apps.
I agree there should be some kind of a "noob sandbox" where new users can ask their questions and get answers from more seasoned users/devs. But how do you guys propose we do that?

Brief synopsis on basic rules and how to help the community

Hey everyone!
I have seen some things lately that really are bugging me, and I am hoping that we can fix this fast.
1) If you have a question and you want to post, please do a search in this forum first BEFORE you post!
2) Please EVERYONE, even if you have over a thousand posts and many thanks, READ THE RULES:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/announcement.php?f=1058
3) If you do a search and find something close enough to your problem, but not quite the same, then please try posting in that thread first and not create another new one.
4) STOP posting and asking about ICS twice a day in a new thread every time.
5) If you ask a question and several people give an answer, attempt it, before you jump back and tell them that thier answer is not what you are looking for. I have seen this all too much lately, and I am getting fed up. Those of us on here that have the knowledge and we give our time freely on here, so show some respect.
6) Don't hijack someone else's thread because there are a lot of people looking at it, and not the one that you posted. This shows a lack of respect to all of us here.
There have been a TON of these things going on in here, and I have seen how many of our more senior users are getting very frustrated just like I am. If you want to keep getting good answers from the knowledgeable people in here, do some research first on your own before making a new post with incorrect information, and please listen and try to think about these things once you are given an answer, and don't just throw it out because it is not what you expected to get.
Also Please thank anyone who gives you an answer to you, even if you don't like it. And stop posting thank you posts, that is what the the thanks button is for.
One last thing, I think everyone should watch this video and hopefully you will get the point. This one is more for people with less than 50 posts, and little contribution.

Well said Jim, as always. We have got to get this under control, and hopefully this will help. It's appreciated sir.

Sir, I refer you to Forum Rules, subsection 3;
"Post only using a clear SUBJECT and message". [Editorial usage of caps not found in original]
... Oh come on, it's a joke.
Sent from my MB865 using xda app-developers app

Jim,
Thanks for taking the time to write this up. Hopefully, things will change. Did I miss something, though? I mean, was there a massive solar flare within the last couple of days thats caused people's brains to get fried? Noobs and members arguing, acting passive aggressively, disrespectfully, and stubbornly when other members or senior members try to steer them in the right direction? The whole attitude of this forum lately has become argumentative and hostile, albeit some of that stems from member's and senior member's frustrations with others not wanting to take a few minutes and a few simple steps in finding out answers on their own before muddying up the forum with new threads on previously discussed topics. It really needs to be stopped, and at the risk of sounding like a total prick, I may start reporting members who fail to adhere to the forum's rules and request a 24 hour suspension if I keep seeing it. We're all grown folk here, we need to act it by respecting others, and playing by the rules...
(Rant over)
Sent from my MB865 using xda's premium carrier pigeon service

I've been meaning to do this, but I knew it would cause me to go on a rant. Nice post, it should be stickied

Most of us are too lazy to go through the rules, but this is to the point, this should be stickied and even then someone posts a silly question, it should be simply ignored.

ROFLMAO..... I actually was crying a little I laughed so hard.... thanks!
I was hoping the title would get some attention.
P.S. anyone that wants this to be a sticky please notify a mod.... I would, but it is my post, so that is kind of a no-no...

So can I flash ICS from China leak to my att atrix 2 LOL HAHA ..... +1 Thanks Jim well put.....

Jim, this is quite nice & I really appreciate when senior members respect Forum Rules by Mike - 2.1 & 2.5 & 10 besides the core stuff of course....I guess if someone is a repeat offender then yeah it would be no fun, Au contraire (i guess i don't get pulled up for using french) it would really make anyone who is not technically adept as Senior members think twice before even wanting to write in, in-spite after doing a search but has a different view or a question. In this case if majority of the members who yet feel the thread or post needs to be closed then yeah I guess MOD needs to be notified. I recall how you gave me some pointers on a much talked about topic & oh yes having a way of words surely helps all concerned.

Jim, I thought it was a shame yesterday when you were working so hard to bring us ICS and some guy called you an A-hole because he felt you should personally walk him through an install. It seems like more and more people think they are special/entitled.

Atrix 2 Wiki ?
Hi there, do we have a page for Atrix 2 where we could find all useful section like root methods, roms etc.
I know we have one for Defy (http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/Motorola_Defy). Would be glad if we could have the same for Atrix 2.
Please let me know if there is already a page. I have searched but couldn't find it.
Edit: The link is there but its empty (http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/Motorola_Atrix_II)

How to stop being a leech to the xda community?

Hey so I am pretty new to the xda forums and what not and would really like to contribute something. I'm broke too broke to donate. all I have that can be any help is an HTC one s I'm too afraid to mess with anymore and an awful computer that I am willing to use to help people on here. Any suggestions? I just want to stop being a leech and a noob.

You could start by reading up on everything related to Android development. Everyone started out as a noob, Google and these forums are your friend. If you can't donate, hit that thanks button at the bottom of the posts.

Or help answer questions in the Q&A section.

This is probably the worst comment ive read here, this is a community and a member wants to help and give a little back and your hating. If we would have more members that try and help and give something back xda would be a much better community.
To the op, theres guides on the development thread on how to develop for our devices, if you want to help you should read or you could probably pm a dev for more info, their very nice and they know a lot, could learn a lot from them.

Try and obtain knowledge about the device, how it works, how you can tell what it's doing, etc..
The ways to do this are: search and browse the forums, google outside of xda, look in your device.
Then you can either go for a specific goal, like s-off, your favorite missing feature, better battery life, etc.. and focus your searching and reading in that direction, or more opportunistically, come up with tweaks and tricks based on what you come across while dissecting the device.
At first it will seem daunting. Try and follow guides and how-to's and try to understand what they do and why that works.
As you become more familiar with how the device and related tools work, you can help out other members with their problems and questions.
Thanks for your interest in contributing.
Good hunting!

Firstly, One solution would be for you to post in the correct forum Q&A would be better..........
Secondly, you could always learn to and build and develop a ROM from scratch yourself. I did !!
I feel your post is a "slap in the face" to all contributing in this forum! Complaining is not constructive!
Many of us have other 'lives' outside XDA. It takes an awful lot of reading, research, setup, trial and many errors of testing, patience, TIME, and all of the above many times over and over.
We are not paid to share what we've created/cooked/kanged/modded/themed etc, we give back to the community because we enjoy it, not because we are obliged to do so.

Also, OP, please read this post. they makes very good points that should be understood by everyone that uses this site. Thanks

Another big reason is the fact that the P6800 is not widely available in the USA, Verizon does carry the 7.7 but that model will always be the last one to get development if any. Another reason is that many tabs are the international model and also the fact that it is a very expensive device to own. If I where you I would just learn to love the current ROM we have which it's pretty good. Also please take a look at this article on this thread

Once you read this hopefully you will realize another reason why there so few roms available

[Q] 10 post before permission to post to development-related forum

Hallo,
Sorry for my English.
I'm a member for some time now and read a lot in forums about custom roms of my phones (Galaxy S1, S2, S3 and S4).
I do custom roms 4 years now. I read a lot of it, I do a lot with it, I help a lot of people with it (in Dutch forums).
Now I feel the need of helping people in some of the XDA forums but when I do a reply I get the message "New members (those with fewer than 10 posts) are not permitted to post to development-related forums".
So, how do I get that number of posts? I don't have specific questions and I don't want to spam this forum.
Well, this is post number one

the point of it is for new Users to help others out or by posting their own Roms/themes etc before being able to post questions on a thread, it also helps keeping spam out of XDA. enjoy your stay!

Thanks for your reply.
As I sad, I don't want to spam the XDA forums. In some forums however I think I can help others.
Anyway, I filled in some (not too much for now ) information in my profile and look for some threads I can do some posting in to achieve my 10 posts. This is number two

Yes bro i can understand. But just wanted to know like after posting 10 post can i be able to post my suggestion on XDA development forums as i have done IT graduation too. And using Samsung Galaxy S2 from approx 2 yrs. And XDA had helped me from passed more than 1 yr for searching the new ROMs. And I had used may ROMs by now and now a days i am having time to post too. Hence would like to suggest few alterations to my developer friends regarding roms. Plse guide what can i do for it.....
Plse help...
Looking forward for the best reply. Thanks and cheers....

Hello Mrunal_M_N, seems I'm not the only one haha.
I fully understand and respect the rules of the XDA forums.
I also used many roms and developed my own skills and after 4 years I know and understand rather a lot of the devices and the roms and now I feel the need to answer questions of noobs/new users but I can't because of the restriction.
For people like you and I we have to find a way to overcome the first 10 posts. This thread is one of my attempts.

To be more specific on the roms. On the Galaxy S1 I had, in 2 years time, quite a lot of different Custom roms. Mostly Dutch in which I helped with theming. Now the device is a spare and on stock rom, rooted and lagfixed. Also used as mp3 player.
On the S2 I had a few Dutch roms and now the latest Omega rom. My S3 now also on the latest Omega rom. The Galaxy tab 3 8.0 still on stock but rooted. My S4, have it since 2 weeks, refused to accept latest Omega rom but succeeded in flashing Wanamlite 4.4.2 rom. That rom fortunately disabled the Samsung KNOX feature and gives me full function of the external sd-card. I am now very happy with Wanamlite and his Xposed module.

I think this is one of the sentiments of us, who wants to input some ideas, like on how we experience some ROMs, but we can't share the experience because of the 10 post policy. anyway, i think this is my 6th post, hehehe. thanks for the thread.

fastlane, you're welcome.....
yep, a little frustration this is. Fully understandable from the point of view of XDA however. Well.. spamming only one thread is not that bad I hope

Well, i hope it's not that bad to spam one thread. and i guess this is my 10th post. see you later on your succeeding posts, JohandeJong.

Hallo,
Sorry for my English.
I'm a member for some time now and read a lot in forums about custom roms of my phones (Galaxy S1, S2, S3 and S4).
I do custom roms 4 years now. I read a lot of it, I do a lot with it, I help a lot of people with it (in Dutch forums).
Now I feel the need of helping people in some of the XDA forums but when I do a reply I get the message "New members (those with fewer than 10 posts) are not permitted to post to development-related forums".
So, how do I get that number of posts? I don't have specific questions and I don't want to spam this forum.
Well, this is post number one

I agree with you. It is hard to reach your 10 because everything that you want to comment on is restricted. I know by now I could be over 100 just by helping with troubleshooting but I cant. Have not reached that golden "10" yet.

Well, I have many answers on custom roms but not for Xperia. I have Samsung Galaxy phones.
After this post I can really give the answers. Thank you.
