[Completed] [Help] Posting custom ROM - XDA Assist

Hello,
I've developed a custom ROM for the HP Slate 21 (phobos). It is quite stable and I feel that it is time for it's public release. Since I am still quite new to XDA, could someone point me to where and how I should create my post? I'd be happy for any assistance! Sorry if I sound like a newbie!
Peace,
Quaesar

Hi,
This would be a good place for a new member to post a rom, http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/general
But, please read these first,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2645321
That thread is about posting a link to your kernel source, which is mandatory on XDA. Per GPL.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2731538
This one is general rom posting guidelines.
If you are in doubt check out some rom threads in any devices development sections for examples.
Good luck!

Thanks,
Do you also know when I'll be promoted to a normal "member" instead of a junior member so I can participate and create DevDB threads?

I'm not exactly sure on devdb privileges, you could look through here or ask...

(the first post says senior member. But perhaps that's changed)
But here's the post count to each level...

Alright thanks!

[Q] Can I open this thread?

I'm an experienced user, i've been using roms on my old 32A Magic phone for a while never had to ask stuff really, but now I have a problem with the new CM7.2 ROM and I really wanted to ask something in the proper thread but since I didn't have the previleges I have to open a thread and post stuff to reach to minimum number of posts. Sorry for inconvinience dear mods.
can post now a lot of posts?
just to reach the 10 min? Hope so. Don't wanna spam but I really need this issue resolved/answered.
any mods there??? please answer
First off, starting threads to complain about the 10 post rule is just silly. The mods will most likely delete it and you'll be back to 0.
Secondly, if you have a question then just search the Q&A forum for your device, and if it's not already asked then start a thread there.
Personally, I hate people asking questions about ROMs and the like outside of the original dev thread. I think the 10 post rule should only apply to creating threads in the dev forums, not posting.
But I digest.
As I said - the Q&A forum is apparently the correct place for this.
Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks
Moving to Q&A
thanks for the replies.
can you please provide me with a link to the Q&A thread? I searched Q&A Magic and it didnt come up with any thread other than the developers, on wich I cant post yet. Thanks guys.

Wow - there's no Q&A forum. How bizarre!
Anyway, search and (if needed) create a thread in the general forum instead...

I agree..it's pain in the arse..i understand the reasoning but when you've worked in IT or have some semblance of knowledge it's very frustrating and makes no sense when it's a comment about a thread it should be within the thread...i shouldn't have to jump thru hoops first to show that i can post...it surely can't be worse than some of the other crap i've seen people posting..esp when it's already been answered earlier in the thread...that's just lasy...or dare i say it..stupid

•Try to keep the development forum CLEAN! No offtopic posting and no questions.
•Use the report button in an offending post to let us mods know we need to take action. Dont take matters into your own hands!!!
•Sources need to be posted for all kernels!!!

[Completed] I Am Seeking New Member Guide and Hope to Get Started Quickly~

If one app related to the Xposed is developed, is it suitable to launch it on the XDA forum?
And I am not sure how to get the permission to insert download link in the post...
As the forums rule said: "The 10 post rule requires all new members to make 10 helpful or respectful contributing posts before they can post in a development forum"
Which part of the forum for a new member to post, and what kind of information is proper...
It is appreciate if someone can offer me more details. Thanks a lot~
I like this forum and like to share ideas with all these respectable and professional developers~

Welcome to XDA

Why is there no section in Alcatel Hardware for the JOY TAB 2?

I've got a TMO Alcatel JOY TAB 2 I'm going to root. I wanted to start a thread for it in the appropriate section. But it doesn't exist.
So I guess this is question is probably really directed to the moderators to create a JOY TAB 2 section under Alcatel Hardware.
So we can start QA's and the likes for these.
Thank you for all your time, and consideration.

Not all devices get a forum section here at XDA. There are many variables involved in whether a device gets a forum, they don't get a forum just because someone requests it. There is also a thread here where requests new forums for devices are supposed to be posted.
If your device is not extremely popular or does not have a very large community of users here at XDA or does not have a significant amount of custom development here at XDA, your device will not be given its own section.
If you want to create a thread or post some development that you have created, you can post it in the Android General Development section.

Thanks for the reply, @Droidriven .
As to "There is also a thread here where requests new forums for devices are supposed to be posted."
I looked for this to see if it existed before posting this request. But came up empty. Guess I'll just have post to the General Dumping Ground, and hope for the best.
Thanks again!
