I've had my N4 for a month now having sold my S3 and I have been having a more pleasant time over here. Seems quite a friendly atmosphere, has anyone noticed this?
Not that the s3 forums were terrible, there was just quite a lot of bickering and inpatient people
Yes, the people in N4 threads seem to be a lot more wiling to help out. I used to help out a lot in the Deviant Development threads but there were too many childish and lazy people.

i too noticed that really friendly people here:good::good:
That's because the sprintards aren't here. I'd be angry if I was locked into a contract as well.

I came from the GS2 forums and noticed the same thing. I thought it was all in my head but I guess not :good:
Re: [POLL] CPU Binning
Its because most of us can read the op in the sections saves a lot of silly questions. Which stops the arguments or at least keeps them to a minimum

Guys, Ghandi runs this forum, you must follow the path to nexus enlightenment...
OP, Yes seems that way....to keep the path pleasant, Thanks.
Hey,
I just signed the petition "Samsung: Please make Exynos open source and help the Android community and it's developers out!" and wanted to see if you could help by adding your name.
Our goal is to reach 100 signatures and we need more support. You can read more and sign the petition here:

Thanks!

No it doesn't lead to anything and if it does those lead to disappointment as even if they'll acknowledge it, you'll get same corporate response like: "we heard your voice, but out engineers and developers know they can provide better support" or whatever.
Petitions don't work it's a fact and no one cares about those anyway.

Haha, nice to hear, but guess what ? history repeats itself
look over here,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3/general/fesm-free-exynos-sources-movement-t1925709
being myself an exynos admirer/user for years i really wish it happens this time
It's proprietary software and hardware. Not gonna happen. No incentive for Samsung whatsoever. Stop wasting your time and go plant a tree instead ;D
Never going to happen. If you want custom *ROM* development, buy snapdragon, only option if you're realistic.

LOL, quite funny how 85% says they will buy snapdragon if samsung doesnt open up but according to the thread and poll on this site, exynos is still the favourite
Anyway I've put my money where my mouth is, I've bought a snapdragon even though it's a bit slower in some tests. I don't care about that. I hate touchwiz so much that Exynos is just not an option (I live in an Exynos country so I had to order my snapdragon in the US). And yeah, it feels good to give Samsung the middle finger.
[QUOTE And yeah, it feels good to give Samsung the middle finger.[/QUOTE]
Correct me if I'm wrong, but you still purchased a Samsung product. Perhaps it's Samsung that's giving you the middle finger...

Yeah not buying a Samsung, that would be even better, I'm longing for the day there's a good alternative. An android running stock Android like Nexus but with Samsung quality hardware, that would be the ultimate device and the day I'm kissing samsung really goodbye. And I don't even care about design (Note 4 is ugly already, I dont care).
It's quite sad such a device doesn't exist ...
I have never seen my s9 clocking at 2.9 ghz like it was being advertised all over the web.. is this some type of kernel manipulation of samsung to not get 2.9 ghz without root?

Ok both of you two knock it off. This isn't a Facebook buy and sell group where people can just rage over the most silly things and then others post Michael Jackson rating popcorn memes egging them on. This is a development site. Thread cleaned.
It's ridiculous how fired up you guys got over the smallest things. Realistically I should be issuing infractions over the name calling and flaming but I'm not going to this time. Please see XDA rules 2.3 and brush up on it. This isn't how we do things out here at all. You've both been around long enough to know better.
If you can't get along then just agree to disagree, keep scrolling or log off and take a break.

Did you even read anything I said? Being right or wrong is irrelevant. You flew off the handle being disrespectful without provocation. That's not how things are done around here. Read and follow the forum rules.
I figured since we turned this forum into a Questions forum with up and down voting for each answer, I'd ask:
How can we make the XDA forums better?
No answer is too outlandish...be creative. We're listening!
Maybe you think we have too many ads, or maybe you think search totally sucks. Perhaps you want more theme options, or you want more ways to learn development. Whatever your idea is, we want to hear it!
Do something to get rid of the elitism that permeates so many forums here at XDA. This drives away new users who would otherwise want to participate in the community. It also drives away old users who used to participate more.

"Elites"? Buzz words are useless; specific details/incidents/threads please.
Anytime everyone agrees, something is usually very wrong.
Censorship kills sites.
Losing "elite" keystone members kills sites.
Censorship kills sites... an occasional flamewar is desirable. Real life is much worse; dumbing down a site kills it every time.

Guys, please stay on topic
I would like, to have some sections, where people can learn modding, learn how to do proggraming for type of stuff we do here on xda.
usualy, someone post some amaizing tool, but it would be even more amaizing if there is separate section for developers who want to learn, deep inside of android system, how to mod it, code some useful software for it, etc
in these times, where all manufacturers are locking bootloaders, or completely ditching bootloader, so it can be unclocked, it encourages lack of experimentation android was before, because people have locked phones and xda forums isn't popular as it once was, there are no more amaizing things, and even if you want to try to make amaizing thing, you can't because there are no resources to learn android. manufacturers, make everything more locked, android is becoming iOS for some reason.
so basically, i would like to have section, like on stackoverflow, but to be focused on android modding, and questions people ask, how they can learn it. (as stackexchange android enthusiasts suck, and it's just that, enthusiasts, but not developers, programmers who want to learn and ask qusetions)
that would make this community useful, for developers.
usual questions, like Q&A is okay, but just want separate section, where real professional people look. (just look, at Q&A, full of regular people who have no clue, and not even read guide, all those questions can be solved with existing guides on XDA, and even if can't, then phone is hard bricked, or question is just trash, and that me, and i believe many others, programmers, professionals, drive back from it, we need quality questions where programmers can look for to help fellow programmer.
and, with this, upwote and downwote, it would be a good idea, as, in those special programming threads, programmers would be able to see most useful answer.
with all people bashing here, this became some low quality, chat forum, i wish we can make it more quality focused, but still noob frinendly, so it have sections for noobs (existing Q&A), and expert section
And what @Jaxidian complained, this would be solution, as sometimes experienced people don't have patience for noob question (they just say "why you don't search first before posting"), those people who answer that way, just wish they could answer and help someone more experienced struggling and not answer same questions from noobs that don't research before posting. (if someone is noob, he becomes even bigger noob if he ask for something that has been asked milion times on same platform)
my 50 cents
A 2-7 day waiting period to post for new members would discourage one thread wonders looking for a quick fix here rather than simple doing a Google search(s).
Help dissuade spammers as well.
Those with a sincere interest would suck up the wait...

Or limit the forums new members can post to just Q and A subforums.
My observation is that in the Q&A forum regularly - almost daily - the same problem (e.g. data recovery for bricked device, rooting device, bypass FRP lock) is presented by different users and asked for a solution proposal: in my eyes a nonsense.
My recommendation: The Q&A forum should have sub-forums for this.
Also, I do not understand why 2 Q&A forums exist, namely Q&A and Q&A->H&T. Users do not distinguish between them.

I think that's an interesting idea, but nothing will make a new user more upset than a waiting period. In 2021, people expect instant access and quick gratification. If we were the only phones community, I would agree with you, but if I was a newb and registered then had a waiting period, I'd say "screw it, my problem is important. i'm going to reddit/AndroidCentral/somewhere else"
