{Required} Tester base for ROMs. - Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello all,
Due to lack of time, I'm unable to test my builds. I'd really appreciate it if people turn up for this and actively test.
Requirements:
1) Experience flashing ROMs.
2) Knowledge about debugging, essentially logcats. -Absolutely necessary.
Those who wish to help, please do join my tester base group in Telegram. I'll be leaving the link to join the group here.
You can join the group using the following link. Do not spam:

P.S. Logcat is not rocket science. Anyone can manage it.
A good thread for learning the same can be seen here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1726238
Hope to see some participation around.
Cheers

[Q] [Barcode]

Hi everyone out there!​
My name is Fredrik and I have decided to create a group called "[Barcode]".
I don't really know why, but I think that this new group can spread new ideas and create new posts with eachother, if some would decide to join.
I think it could be critical to create groups on XDA, because we can build barriers and maintain (hopefully) a high standard and get well recognized by our name.
This is just a project, and I hope that some competence would be available out here!
Everyone is welcome!
I searching people with skills that could maybe create different posts that could help people or maybe provide them with something new. Both would be perfect!
Anyone want to join?
Contact me if interested, or leave a comment

Attn Devs: Regarding Development & Testing

I would like to start off by giving Kudos to all you Devs, you guys have given this phone the much love and Attention that it has needed:good:
I would like to offer my my knowledge and skill set to help you all in the testing process of your roms. Although SQA ( Software Quality Assurance) is no longer my profession, I did it for 10yrs, most of that in Cellphone technology. So I am probably much older than most of you .
I'd rather keep my issue ( bug) findings between you and I, as not to clutter threads. What logcat app would you recommend and do you guys use a BTS (bug tracking system) else where that files can be uploaded to?
So if you are interested in my help please PM.
This is the development forum. It needs to be in the Q&A forum.
First suggestion - don't start threads in the dev forum. Second - use search and you will find recommendations for logs and where to upload them. Good luck.
Thanks, I asked about logcats and a place to upload the files for the devs to go through, pertaining to each project. as for searching around here, sometimes it's utter chaos.

[BETA] [COLLABORATIVE GUIDE] I (soft)bricked my phone - the flowchart!

After softbricking my phone 4-5 times in 2 days I learned a bit about common problems and how to solve them and I decided to create a flowchart to help people to un-softbrick their phone! This way we can eliminate noob threads of common problems which would probably have a very easy solution (e.g all my first posts about softbricking my phone), and make it easier for newbies to learn & fix their problems faster.
The flowchart is not finished and is open for collaborators. I built it in lucidchart so people can work on it together. It's currently in a beta version as it needs to be expanded so below are two links - a collaborators links and a viewers link.
If you (soft)bricked your phone and need help un-bricking it, before starting a thread enter the viewers link.
If you have knowledge on the subject you are welcome to join the collaborators link and enter your known problems & solutions.
Viewers link: Click here!
Collaborators link: Click here!​P.S: If you wanna troll and ruin the flowchart because you're bored and want to ruin it for other people, too bad - I can roll back any edit.
What do you think? If you have any suggestions, just add them yourself!
Updated the flowchart with new colors and options, everything now has an answer (even if the answer is "no answer"). Feel free to take a look and collaborate!

Beware from (some, not all) unprofessional and immature ROM devs

Hi
First of all lets check meaning of some words:
Feedback: information about reactions to a product, a person's performance of a task, etc. which is used as a basis for improvement.
Request: an act of asking politely or formally for something.
Forcing: make (someone) do something against their will.
Many of you already know that, some of the devs of this are not proffesional, rather they are arrogant, or will show you their admin powers on their telegram channel.
Mod edit: Removed
Note: Like a user respect a ROM for their time and hardwork, then a user also expects respect and meaningful conversation. If you don't care about feedbacks, then in your disclaimer put this too.
Happy ROM Building.
Disclaimer: I respect ROM devs and their Work, by publishing this post I doesn;t mean I don't respect them. So, kindly take it professionally. And if you don't care about XDA, then kindly remove your telegram links from XDA for promoting your group and channels by stealing their direct google (organic) traffic for free. Learn SEO, then say, I don't care of XDA.
Thanks
