Hi,
I'm wondering where I could start a thread about a new phone that is not in the current list of phones?
E.g. I've got a ZTE STAR1 and it's going to be a nice baby to talk about, similar to the interesting XIAOMI.
thanks for your advices
cheers
Hello @lavive I have two possible answers for what you're trying to explain. You can start a discussion thread for your device in the General Android section. Please search before you start the topic as there may already be an existing thread. If you wish to have a specific sub-forum for your device you can suggest it here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1660354
Use the Thanks button if I helped

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.
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.
Hi guys
i am new to rooting devices i have jailbroke my ipad etc but i have always had android mobiles in particular nexus 4/5/6
i am looking to root my device the sole reason being so i can use Hound on my phone. can someone point me in the right direction on where to start with this currently running *nexus 6 with latest firm update*
thanks for the help in advance
Hi,
Before asking this basic question on a very popular development friendly device, I would suggest you visit the N6 section, here...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6
The General section has a Roll up Index thread which likely has the help you need, and there are other great guides and tutorials in the General and Q&A sections.
If you get stuck after doing your homework....you can ask for help in the Nexus 6 Q&A section. This hobby takes a LOT o reading. You will find it tough to get help if you don't read read read first. Especially with a Nexus device, where there is lots of info here for those. Also, the more you know, the less likely you will run into troubles with your device.
Good luck!! And I will close this thread.

A lot of new Android Forums ask you to enter you android devices as your register or have a place to add your devices in your details or as i do as xda does not seem to have a section for what android device you have, I add them to my signature, correct me if you do xda.
With so many different android device models even in the same subsection, Samsung being the main culprit, it does my head in when somebody asks for help without saying what android device they have in the post.
Maybe an message to all members
Anybody else?
Thanks
John.
Hi there,
I'm sure you are already read our sticky thread with the purpose of this forum, right?
In other hand please post your request here: [All XDA Members] Requests to Moderators and Admins
Good luck
This malware has haunted my phone. I tried few antimalwares from google play but nothing helped
I m not able to browse any page as this adware always redirect to other useless page. i tried using other browsers too but it doesnt help too...I m not sure how it got into my system. I m using one plus two. please help
Hi,
I see you've asked this question here, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=63357179#post63357179
That is a good place to ask. So you'll need to be patient and hopefully someone has heard of this. If you haven't already, I'd search Google on this too.
And for future reference, There's a device section for your device.... Lots of info can be found in the general section and questions can go in the Q&A section. There's a dedicated help thread in the Q&A section as well.

Good luck!
