What Happened to the Subforums for this device? - Samsung Gear Sport

I was gong back and forth, using the xda app and it failed to load a couple times and then I get it back, but the Subforums are gone!
I'm on a mobile, but I've checked with both the app and a browser.
It looks like all of the threads are under a single forum.
There is no more Q&A, DEVELOPMENT, NEWS, etcetera, etcetera.
WHAT GIVES?

Separate forum category for ROMs

Currently we have dozens of ROMs and new ones are coming every day. I believe it would be easier for a single forum for the posting of ROMs and then the android development forum for developing them. This would make it easier for find ROMs etc.
I you agree please vote.
not needed imho
I'll second the "not needed" as well.

The Android Development forum is not really that hard to navigate.
This has been brought up over and over again. Trust me you would find it a whole lot harder to go to one thread to get the rom and after you find an issue with it have to go to another thread to post about said issue just to find it is already known. When you can get the rom and read up on any issues in the same thread.
I am gonna close this up now.

New phone threads, what's wrong mods?

It seems to me that any thread pertaining to another phone has been removed by the mods lately. What's up with this? I understand that the thread may not be about the infuse, so I understand your logic for moving them. However, what about those of us that may want to discuss new phone options with fellow Infuse owners that we have been in a community with for some time now?
To me, it seems as if you're controlling what a new group of friends can talk about, and basically being an overly harsh dictator. I respect the opinion of my fellow Infusers, so why can't I talk about new phones with them in a place where I know it will be mostly Infuse owners? It's the GENERAL section for a reason. You're supposed to post any random discussion you want there, so long as it is not offensive and is appropriate for all.
Specifically, I'm referring to the threads about the galaxy note. I was enjoying reading the opinions of all of you, as I will probably be upgrading to it this summer.
And don't say that I can go read in the AT&T note section, because that is not what I am talking about. In the AT&T note section, you get the opinions of all sorts of people coming from different devices, whereas a thread here will only gather the opinions of Infuse owners. I want to be able to talk about new phones without the thread being deleted or moved after a few days.

Sorry for the lengthy response, I just think the mods should be a bit more lenient.
There should be one thread for all of it. People can post about it without clogging up the forum.

big infuse comparison thread.....

I have been holding my tongue...
BUT I'm kinda getting there:
HERE IS WHERE YOU WOULD WANT TO POST IT:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1255388
All non-Infuse phone goes there...
skyrot, all-trix, galax Not, etc...you get the idea
Sorry, forgot about that thread as its a sticky and I do most of my reading on my phone, where stickies are under a different tab. My bad. Although I still think it wouldn't be that terrible to have a thread here and there regarding specific new phones. Whoops.

np..i don't have any issue usually, but as new threads get created with only a few posts, the older but good thread with lots of material gets pushed back.
We end up with such a large clutter that is harder to follow.
bronco is actually pretty tolerant...I've on seen one thread got locked in the past several months.
Try Dolphin HD with desktop toggle add-on for full web page browsing from phone.
If you want to discuss about a new phone, if that alreday has a dedicated forum, then you can talk about it there.
If not you can post in General-General.
Certainly you cant post in the Infuse forum.

P.S. You can also use the Infuse Comparison thread which is stickied on this forum

Removing Google Now results

As most of you know, IB Times and Christian Post are the absolute worst sources for Android news. They post completely fictitious rumors without any sources and without mentioning that the past 1010928 rumors they posted were wrong. I made the mistake of clicking on a few of these stories, so for a few months, I've gotten nearly daily notifications in Google Now about Nexus articles posted on these websites. I want to remove these websites from my Google Now completely.
I did some research on how to do this, and Google said to click the menu button on the individual notification inside of Google Now and I can request that no more results from that website be displayed. However, that's not a choice. Instead, I have the option of whether or not to continue to receive articles relevant to the Nexus devices. I do want to receive articles about Nexus devices, just not from these sources.
Can anyone tell me how to remove notifications from specific websites without removing notifications for the subject of the articles? Thanks in advance. Also, I wasn't sure if this went in Q&A or Apps & Themes, so I made a judgment call and went with the Q&A forum. Apologies if it should have gone elsewhere.
Try deleting the offending pages from your Google browsing history. You may have to wait a few days after that for the cards to stop appearing.

I'll try that and see if it works. I thought of it as a possible solution, but figured I'd see if there was an easier way first. Thanks.
Edit: Ok, so I tried that, but it can't be the solution. Apparently I had already done this for both Christian Post and IB Times, and the only history results I had were three IB Times results from the past month where I clicked the link based on the headline without looking at the source first. All of the earlier IB Times visits and all of the Christian Post visits were gone. However, I received a Christian Post notification as recently as two days ago.

I've never been to those sites before GN, and they keep showing up.
I agree with what you are saying... garbage articles that shouldn't show up in my GN. Subscribing!
I would like an answer to this too!
I think I'll just email CP and IB and tell them to stop posting crap. :/

I'm curious too. I keep getting GN notifications for international soccer scores and it says below them that I searched for this team. Trust me, I have not. I don't search for any sports or teams. I went as far as reporting it to Google but haven't gotten a response. I've checked my search history and also deleted it. But they still appear at random.

I have actually emailed the authors/editors of articles on both sites pointing out all of the incorrect information and asking about sources. I have never gotten a response.
Anyone have any ideas?
Bump. This is the most annoying part of google now.

Agreed. I like the automatic nature of GN, but I would love more control over what pops up. Regarding those two websites, I'm sure they're just click bait. They always pop up whenever you search any rumors, so they get a ton of clicks for people to view ads. I doubt they care what they post, as long as people get them ad money.
dont you get that three buttons menu option at the right top corner of the card? i think you can remove the updates from there. atleast it shows me that option from some other sites that i visit on google.
This might be a stupid question and so I apologize in advance, but you do have the latest version of google now right?

Hopefully we get an answer for this I want my android and tech news but it's from a bunch of BS websites
I too hate that crappy news feed that Google now gives. There should be a voting system or report spam/irrelevant option in Google now so that these dumb sites don't keep posting in our 'interested' feed

Yeah. There is no option to remove specific sites any more. We can remove news about a topic, but that doesn't help as I want news about android, just not from these horrible sites.
Alright. Hopefully someone can come up with something.

Same problem here. These sites are annoying.

I guess then Google must be pulling them from a list of most visited or best ranked news item. It just happens to be from these sites. I guess nothing much can be done on the user part

[Completed] [Q] Forum and subforum viewing

Is there a way to see all threads of a forum and it's subforms on one page?
An example would be, I'm looking at the Hauwei Nexus 6P forum and I'm presented with a page of sub forums like Q&A, General, Android Development and so on... However, I'm very interested in the new topics on this device so I would like to be able to scroll through all of the newest active threads on one page.
Is there a way to do this?
Thanks

[Completed] Cannot find Behold 2 Stock ROM ANYWHERE

XDA Assist was the very last place I'd post, but I'm completely out of luck everywhere else. I've tried just about every place I could think of, including SAMMOBILE, AndroidForums, and a few unholy others. I cannot find the stock ROM for the T-Mobile Behold II. I really liked the home screen and how you could have multiple wallpapers, and how it was like the inside of a cube. I plan on recompiling the APK for Android 4.4-5.1, but since I can't find the flipping ROM anywhere I'm out of luck. I really don't want to have to buy one off Amazon or anything. Where can I find the ROM?

Greetings,
Please read the sticky threads for this forum again. XDA Assist is for new members and visitors who need help navigating the site. It is not a help desk for Senior members who know how to use the search features. I'm sympathetic for your situation but there's nothing we can do for you here that you can't do for yourself.
