gather up all android threads

hi people...it is possible that we will get android subforum
so if that happens....here is a tiny contribution to admins/mods:
all android threads from last 25 pages (october2090-february2010)...some of them are vital...and some pure junk,but let's move them first,after that it's piece of cake to delete them

please add threads which i missed (if i did)
I second the need for it at some point, but there just isn't enough need for it at this point.
i agree. i would appreciate if the single android thread starter actually update the original posts regularly (as if it were there own)so that i dont have browse through 100 post if i didnt read it for 1 week.
it is still early to have a fully developed subforum,but i think that making a subforum will attract people,so over a short period of time the android community would grow mostly caused by having easy access to android ports and working versions...which will result in more interest...more interest in better development...because right now it's kinda hell out there in the development thread

Autocorrect Disasters

Over in another thread, RBarnett had went to all for some assistance and mention a problem he was having.
After posting he realized that autocorrect had trolled his own statements
What are some Autocorrect disasters you have encountered?
Feel free to post screenshots or just type what you meant to say and what autocorrect blew up...
Droid Charge powered by TSM Tweaked 3.0 w/ JellyBean 5.0
I could have sworn that we had exactly the same thread a week or so ago and it either died a sad death or, more likely, got closed down. Can't find it right now, but I'll have a better search in a minute.
I quickly looked before i posted but i may have missed it

Android 4.4.3 is gonna release tomorrow? Maybe!

Like the topic says, in these hours on the net emerged a new image from Samsung Devs, discussing over some docs in the new update. What do you think?
In your opinion the date is tomorrow?
And how long before the mods close this 4.4.3 thread? Taking bets....I say 2 hours!

Hopefully tomorrow I gave you a thanks for being brave enough to start this thread, and the crap you will hafta put up with from this wretched forum
oh look, imagine that, another 4.4.3 rumor, and another 4.4.3 rumor thread..
Regardless, I have been disappointed in Google's lack of fixing things. I just wish we could get an official ETA window from Google.
I'm in before the lock. (thread closure)

lollipop delayed and End of production for Nexus 5

...Google end production on nexus 5....
http://techpp.com/2014/11/05/nexus-5-discontinued/
..Nexus 5.0 update delayed until Nov.12..

Sent from my Nexus 5 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
from the same article that you posted about the n5 being discontinued..
Update: There’s a possibility that Google is stopping the production of only the 32GB version of Nexus 5, as the XDA user above was asking for a replacement of 32GB Nexus 5. We will be contacting LG/Google for clarification and will update this article accordingly.

End of production was to be expected from my point of view.
But "delayed" update was a quiet a surprise because I was expecting at the end of November.
I'm quiet happy that they will release OTA on 12th, that means the image will be up few days sooner.

Nah it will not end.
http://www.google.com/nexus/5/
The site says it all.
Yea... Wouldn't make sense to discontinue it, and take the effort to redo the Nexus 5 page showing it running Lollipop.
Come on guys, you know how it is. This is rumor season. A bunch of people just randomly show up to the forum to post something they probably saw on G+ or something. Take 99.99% of all of this stuff with a grain of salt. As for the N5, I'll believe it's discontinued when you can't buy it on the Play Store from a link that says get your NEW Nexus 5 here...
So, you're pointing to a blog that in turns points back to lively thread here in our very own forums... Needless to say the original XDA thread does a fine job of repudiating the idea that the N5 has been terminated -- for all the reasons noted in the above posts. Circular posts like this just feed the rumour mill and before long we all end up authoritatively on IBTimes!
Though the N5 portion of this thread seems redundant in light of the XDA source thread I'll add a further 2¢: The original complaint seems to be someone trying to RMA their device (specifics are lacking), If that's the case he/she would only be offered a refurbished unit as per Google policy. That wouldn't explain the explain the wording of the feedback from Google Play, but in that case I'd suggest it's little more than miscommunication. In fact, the wording of the Play email is rather unlike anything I've ever had back from Google/Play support.
Said thread / rumour began here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6/general/nexus-5-wont-produced-anymore-t2921263/page2
EDIT: *sigh* Even the postponement item is a report on a rumour from another site. "Android Police claims to have learned that the over-the-air (OTA) update for Android 5.0 Lollipop has been postponed to until..." While AP is a very credible source (and this report has been thoroughly covered in the appropriate forum here already), linking to a repeat of a report is fairly useless unless the fresh take offers an actual fresh take with, ya know, with new details or insights.
What happened to official statements? Are they valid nowadays? Because Google hasn't officially declared anything regarding this... So why discuss it further?
A new thread for every single article on lollypop?
It would be awesome if there were one place to discuss all these...... Wait... What about...

That thread is for the Developer Preview of Lollipop. Not the public production release of Lollipop.
I for one have found info on Production release lacking on this forum so informative threads are appreciated.

Yep, this trend makes it appear as if there is a lot less content too. Plus like you mention I'm not reading 100 pages in a thread with a title I have no interest in.
Much easier to have more specific topics with several pages than broad topics with hundreds of pages where who knows what page the info I'm looking for might be on.

Well, if you had read the blog post that you cited regarding end of production you'd have seen that it was referring to (and linked to!) an XDA N6 thread. If, having realized this, you still felt there was a clear need to (re)post it here you could have - at least - linked directly to the original XDA thread.
Another future of N5/Nexus thread,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2919674
And most here know that all L discussion goes in the L general or Q&A threads until it's officially released. Hence the reason every single L or Lollipop thread has been closed by the moderators.... In case you didn't see that trend. ?
Please guys. Stick to the L sticky threads as we've been asked to numerous times. ?
This is very good news.
Now android l can fix the problems of nexus 5 and make much better. now i like nexus 5. nexus 6 too big, it sad and sad
why delay because google still watch us with nsa so who care if they watch us all the time then they watch us right now be very disappointed with the delay

I will point out that the 32GB is out of stock on the Nexus 5 minisite, but that just means out of stock, which means no backorderable stock, which could mean waiting on new manufacture. I actually believe that Google understands, as do I, that this phone is still very cutting edge; and at this price point, most certainly the best buy for the dollar on the market. I have the opportunity to get any new phone now with a company paid monthly bill on AT&T or Verizon. You know what? I'm gonna keep my N5 on Straight Talk. Call me a dummy but I can't find a phone I like more with the features I've grown attached to (wireless charging ftw), a brilliant high dpi screen, and a form factor that fits just right (any larger and I can't one-hand it on the subway while keeping my other hand on the railing). What really makes a phone feel new is a radically upgraded OS, and that's what I have now with my no-questions-asked free replacement refurb on Android 5.0. Thanks Google!
@KJ is right, plenty of threads to discuss this.
Thread closed.
