I want to open this POOL and please all members answer corectly.
HOW MANY if you will BUY any WinMo or Android Device if there was not comunity like XDA ?
Its True that HTC and Microsoft Without XDA.... are nothing.
Who is trying to make your devices run faster? The Members of XDA
Who is trying to make your device look much better? The Members of XDA
Who is trying always to have UPDATES even when Microsoft and HTC do not release any Software Updates for your Device? The Member of XDA
And this is just example...
I think that HTC and Microsoft need to know all this and minimum they need to buy for each XDA Developer one Bentley.. because if they was not HERE.. Nobody will spend thousend of $$$$ to have one Device without a Support.
And to recive some stupid apps from Windows Marcetplace with 90% of them are useless.
that is a hard question. but without xda there would still be ppcgeeks howardforums modaco and others. but i do spend most of my time here.
Yes, sure I would buy WM!
But most sure I´ll get rid of it if XDA does not exists
And probably I would ended on Android

Yes but you dont understand the question..
Is true that have other sites for WinMo Devices and etc But for example
in ppcgeeks do the peoples cook ROMs.. or in MODACO just google all the FIX all the UPDATE and tricks.. are made in XDA and they are post in diferent sitest.
So if was not here XDA what ROM`s and Updates will be posted in all other sitest?
Maybe will pop up one new cooked ROM per YEAR LOL

I will get rid for around a 30 days of using my Blackstone with the Stock ROM and even im not able to install a THEME with sure i will put it in the TRASH and will never buy a WinMo Device.
it's poll btw
I actually came to XDA because I got a Wallaby and later a Blue Angel, so XDA was not my defining factor for buying WM devices. Having said that, I would probably not have a serious case of ORD if it wasn't for XDA ...
thinks
I bought a blackstone 1st , then found this site, but probably my next phone will be a windows but only because of the support offered here. Thanks
I only found out about this site after i bought my XDA II in March 2009.
But i think the xda II would have gone back on eBay if this site wasnt here.
Windows mobile 2003 is annoying!
Yeah, so a BIG thanks to:
Xda-Developers,
Ather, (first man who helped me!)
frauhottelmann, (with my htc s710)
aeroflyluby, (amazing roms!)
Orb, (posting good threads, that have kept my interest)
Stylez, (PC Related stuff)
Kristaps-K9-Lv, (pc related stuff)
Erm....
And a LOT of other people!!

I bought and loved Android before I knew about xda.
Well I bought my first device not realizing XDA existed, but I would definitely make sure XDA had forums 9or was getting them) for any potential new device in the future
I had an Ipaq pda for years before I found xda. But after I bought my second one (an Imate) I found xda. I realized i did not get full value from my Ipaq. I have had several WM phones since and love xda. And I do love my WM phones.
However, without xda I probably would have moved to an (ugh) Iphone years ago. So may thanks to xda for saving me.

Hello everyone, I just got a tilt by AT&T and found this forum while searching for ways to improve/add missing features. I have not worked with this type of software before but hope to learn a lot (likely at the cost of some frustration). Any recommendations on how or what you have done to improve the phone? Thanks,

Just take out some time from your daily life and search Do not ask a question unless you're certain it hasn't been asked before. You'll be shun upon. I'm just saying take some time, search, and you'll be a pro soon enough.
thanks for the heads up. the search for improvement has begun, and will likely go on indefinitely.

Psssh. This site is like drugs. Too addicting. But unlike drugs you can't not be addicted to it o.o
Here's a tip- MAKE SURE YOU'RE USING THE FORUMS FOR YOUR DEVICE AND NOT SOME OTHER FORUM.
you can tell i've made this mistake before.

Can we set up a iphone development page set as hawever would like not to acknowledge its existance it is here. and should be looked at like any other device (palms remember lol)
I believe from a "legal" standpoint actually talking and sharing ideas about developing for the iPhone is against the SDK.
Have you not noticed that this is an "HTC" forum. Since HTC don't make the iPhone, and since the iPhone doesn't run WM, there is absolutely no chance.
The Palm devices here are manufactured by HTC.

Idiotic? like it or not there are other smartphones out there and it's just ignorance like that has kept the WM platform from developing, neither devices are perfect but maybe sumone here can think I wonder if that will work on WM and vice-verca, sure how many threads is there about looking the likes of a simple thing like the keyboard being ported or coppied over to WM

This forum is called "XDA-Developers" for a reason. It is dedicated to HTC devices, which at the time the forum was set up were only released under the XDA brand.
The two platforms are completely different, and share no common ground.
People may want their HTC device to look like an iPhone, but that doesn't mean the site is going to dedicate space and bandwidth to the iPhone it self.

As the mod has already stated, this is a HTC forum. Any discussion aside from that manufacture is going to be off topic. If you feel compelled to discus iPhoney, there are other venues to do so. I too think it is idiotic to request the mods to add a board here for iPhoney discussion.

Well you've seen the answer.
But a therapy group, to convert might be a good idea.
But truth is on XDA it won't take long before more and more objections get it. Just because it's against the cause.
There's also no sense of discussing it.
Even a fun thread could get ugly in no time and we wouldn't want that now.
hi guys,

Get 10 posts. Gives you access to being able to post in the development/phone specific sub forums. It also gives you access to have signatures, post in the marketplace (where you sell phone and phone related things), post outside links, etc. Also, you may want to avoid this specific sub forum or just mainly DanWilson. He's dangerous and may get you banned/hack you. Also, people like it when you use the search feature at the top of the page instead of just posting in a sub forum. I'm not really against or for this. But many people get (VERY) angry. Sheesh. Have fun, and enjoy.
Yes I'm feeling helpful today OT.
How many post u need to allow new users to add links because i want to post a thread about fixing my phone and to explain carefully i need to add links? Im just asking.
10 posts should get you the ability for external links if i am correct.

Well, you'd wanna use some lube if it is your first time, because going bareback might hurt a little for both parties.
You'd also wanna ease it in a little before going full force.
I'd give you more advice but I see PDL here and he's probably more experienced, what with his marriage to Dan and all that.
Don't use this site. You're gonna brick your nice new phone, and by the time you get it to work again, a newer, better phone will have come out. Forget this site, go look at porn insread.

There's a penetration testing thread in the tp2 forum that works for many HTC winmo phones that I've been playing around with on my fuze.
I'm still pissed that it got made a legacy device when it did. At the time, there were at a page of new posts everyday added to the dev section. And they weren't noobs asking stupid questions in dev either. On top of that you had the moto backflip and other crap which had no dev support period being added every other week.
From a chef, what do you think would be cool to do to a non daily driver touch pro? I can't bring myself to put that thing down.

I too have the good ole TP ( Fuze ) Will never give it away - and yes me too way very emotionally attached to Fuze dev section - but sadly we had most of the ROMs discontinued - I discontinued mine also ( for public ).
I think only NRGZ cooks regularly for Fuze, TAEL, JMC etc etc all were discontinued or were no longer supported. Hence, it makes sense to send it to legacy devices - and hey it's not that legacy devices sections are not accessible just a click away.
Well I just play with my Fuze cook a new ROM once a while - just use it for a couple of hours in a week - if I;m feeling nostalgic - I just use it for a day or two.
Won't sell it as it will fetch me pennies compared to what I bought it for.
And I agree, some devices have disappointed as hardly anyone develops for them - but now we are much more careful about what we add and what we don't.

Shouldn't be the case - are you using the classic theme ? Then maybe, not sure though.
Although - XDA Shutdown i remember - was pretty swoosh I even themed it for my ROM and I think so did NRGZ. Can;t recall who the dev was - maybe hilaireg or DaveShaw they both were Fuze owners and devs, very active on the forums and helped me alot.
