I think this phone deserves its own thread. Let me start:
1. It will be on sale at Best Buy on Black Friday for 1 cent. With contract of course. Expect Amazon to follow.
2. It is rootable but not yet unlockable. See information here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1975849
Are you sure this is needed?
if so,why didnt you search.

Hey, can anyone reccomend a good rom?
not updated since june. got dutty's xt 3.9 wwe.
I'm sure theres been updates since then?
Who's had good experiences with what?
Thanks
If you want stability and speed - try topix.
If you want many things inside it and eyecandy - try energy.
If you want lightweight - try onkolog.
If you like dutty's one - go on with dutty's R12.
Miri is also has a good combination. But not for me.
-personal opinion-
very concise response thanks.
I'll probably hit the new dutty's rom.
just seen some really nice skins too, a lot can happen in 2 months.
one thing i've noticed the new dream and magic phones, are they beter than the touch hd, or is hd still the best HTC device?
Where can you find the R12 dutty rom?

p.s: Just noticed that thread closed and I've removed the link. Just google it ^^

Where is he? I had a thought yesterday. Perhaps people should be made to wait a month after signing up to XDA developers before they can post!

that is silly. the guy asked a question and it was answered. flamers should get castrated, and new members should be treated with respect. if you're nice to them, they are more motivated to learn from the experience and read before they post.
I waited about 3 months before I made my first post. But then again, I also got a warning on my first post

i agree we should treat new members with respect, but the moderators are encouraging new members to scan ROM threads for feedback vs starting new threads. they can also post questions in the appropriate ROM threads.
my apolgies, technically it was my 30th post so i should have known better.
Just been out of the loop for 2 months, laziness is no excuse.
But the fact I was answered is a great tribute to the verterain users of the forum.

Perhaps you created new thread without reading forum rules, or you didn't post your query in an existing thread.

Would tend to agree with you both, all new members should be treated with respect, but at times it can be difficult due to the same questions being asked repeatedly. As cortez.i stated above we try (when possible) to encourage everyone to search existing threads before creating new ones. If threads already exist on your topic, but you cannot find your answer within thread, you should post your query into this thread, and not create a new one.
Forum rules clearly state this, and failure to abide by forum rules can result in warning and temporary bans.
To date I have not banned anyone for creating new threads, but continual disregard of forum rules will result in a ban.
Thanks for your time

There's plenty of threads about this in the "about xda" forum. If you'd read the rules then you'd know to search first and you'd have found the myriads of other closed threads about the subject.

I'm wondering, is it really that hard to post in the correct section? Here are some threads that should be in Q&A, but all were on the first page in General when I copied their links:

That is 12 out of 20 threads (the stickied ones were not included) on the first page that weren't posted where they should be.
Also, I noticed that most of these threads were started by people with none to very few posts... Connection?
I sense that this thread might get closed for some reason.
The threads that I linked to should be closed/moved, or the newbies (mostly, some senior members as well..) who haven't yet developed the ability to read will soon post every single question they have in General...
My suggestion is increasing the post requirement before you can post in General.
A. Volunteer to become a moderator and hand down infractions or use the report post button.
B. Do you think you have any sort of authority over others and or think you are perfect?
C. Do you realize that your whiny post HAS NO PLACE HERE? (As does my response)

B: The OP is correct, the Q&A question exists for question, this one for general discussions. Where did he say he's perfect or above others?
C: Why not? He has a fair point. And I don't see him whining. What is your problem?
But I don't agree: Raising the post count for the General section is not a solution.
Maybe a new closed stickyied thread "This section is NOT for Questions you have, use Q&A for that" might help.
Reported my own post and suggested it to the mods.
Cheers.

Because the Q&A section is a no-man's land where no dev ever ventures. Trying to push the new guys that come here to the fringes is not the solution.

Apart from the fact that I and a couple others in fact ARE scanning the q&a section every now and then for questions which are lacking an answer and are not covered in any of the other threads:
That's not a valid reason to post in the wrong section. Especially considering the kind of questions linked in the OP which are pretty often already covered multiple times all over xda.

you're wrong they answer the questions that never been asked before if your question doesn't answer so search it first before creating a new thread if you search for an hour so search for a day and if you can't find it and you search for almost a day that's the right time to post don't post anything because you only want to reach 10 post to be able to post in developers section

The thing is when I go into the Q&A and see a bunch of old threads I am gonna think like that. I didn't talk out of my ass but went to the section and that was what compelled me to answer. The problems of this forum imo are solved with active moderation. Things like warnings, thread deletions and relocations. Until that investment is made we will be suffering this kind of problems.
My thread here was locked, and there was no reason posted. I understand if the lock is justified, but I'm just wondering whether it was a matter of not being Nexus related or whether it goes under the clause for some kind of advertisement, or what exactly it was. I don't know who exactly locked it or I'd just PM them directly, so yeah...

Looks like you're spamming the board with this stuff and your signature and it probably benefits you in some way.
You apologize IF you broke any rules, did you even bother reading them?
13. Advertising and Income Generation
Commercial advertising, advertising referral links, pay per click links and other income generating methods are forbidden. Do not use xda-developers as a means to make money.
7. Do not spam, sell or trade on the forums.
If you wish to advertise a product, contact us we provide ads. But do not post it in the forums, it will be removed and you're likely to receive a ban.
Also, you could have PM'd the mods.
I'll just keep adding codes to the OP, I guess, and remove them as they expire. Yay free money.

i'm thinking that has something to do with it...
Oh, I missed the referral link part >.>. There was a thread in one of my past forums where people were exchanging Dropbox referral links which was left open, and I guess I assumed it was okay. Am I allowed to keep it in my signature, or is that not allowed either?
As for PM'ing the mods, I don't know if there are specific ones moderating this forum or whether they are universal to all the forums, and I'm pretty sure there a lot of mods overall.

I don't really get it what part of that quote was a bad thing. The other codes provide no benefit to me, other than the first one, if that's what you're wondering.
In the end, it's a discount for people starting new T-Mobile contracts which is a lot of people in this forum, and I'm not making any more than they are. Plus, I can only add 10 people under me, and I can't add any more people or ways to make money beyond that, so I was not looking for monetary gains as opposed to just offering a way to save money. That being said, the rules of this forum are up to the XDA people and I'll respect them.

Hey guys, someone is selling a Droid Turbo prototype with an unlocked bootloader on Swappa. Devs, please take a look as this might help development significantly.
*NOT MY LISTING*

I'm not sure if this is in the right section, mods please feel free to move/delete if needed. I also made a thread about this in the General section, just hoping people see this.

(Un)fortunately the seller had to move it to the "Boneyard" section of Swappa, which maxes out the selling price at $500. $100 instant price drop!
