How to turn off forum descriptions? - Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is there a way to turn off the description of forums on XDA?
It takes way too much space.
Attached is a screenshot of the Nexus 6 General forum, It takes up almost half the screen.

first off, questions go into q&a, not the general section. secondly, scroll to the bottom of xda, and change the theme. i use the 2010 theme, its a little simpler, with a little less.

Eh, I posted in an xda general help forum, not the nexus 6 forum, someone moved it to nexus 6 forum... shrug....
mods should just delete this.

You may also ad block that portion of the website by adding it.

I haven't looked at that theme in some time. It is quite refreshing. In this case, I'm not sure progress was good, but at least they're all there so we can choose.

couldn't this thread be put into a different section of the kaiser forum? How about Kaiser General....
contacted mods for removal.
I don't mean to be a jerk but this is being posted in Kaiser General.
If more people could just answer the questions, this could be a nicer forum.

Then a footnote stating that it had been moved would be nice. Otherwise you are the one that looks dumb.
I am not trying to cause trouble...just stating the obvious.

I agree completely! I always search and always recommend it.
To actually ANSWER the question in the original post, I find the Minimal Dialer skin which is on another dialer to be the most effecient in functionality and pleasing in the cosmetic field. I like it so much that I no longer go to my contact to call people, I actually DIAL the numbers. Not even kidding.

ok how could i footnote that it was moved?
I PM'd mods. They moved it after I stated it was in the wrong forum, which post 2 states. I really had no idea when they were planning to move it or if they would even consider moving the thread. Therefore, footnoting on the second posts would absolutely make no sense. However, I did state that I notified mod for removal. Therefore, I do not comprehend how I would be the one that looks dumb. Do you really believe I would sit here and wait for the thread to be moved to the correct forum? WTF is wrong with people now a days.

Kaiser dialer
What a bunch of "senior" whine bags! It would be nice if the mods could delete the worthless posts from this thread and let's just stick to the topic.
I am just using the Kaiser dialer for now. Haven't messed around with dialers much yet. I am interested in seeing what is out there though and what other people like to use.
Does need to stay on topic, but is comical.
Nadavi's dialers are probably one of the fastest and smoothest dialers out there, but I do like the new L26 Dialer.
IMO the DxC dialers are the best so far and from what I've seen.
The only problem with DxC Dialers are the troubles for redialing and it screws up when you try to do a conference call.
So I revert back to Dutty's Rom wm6.1 dialer.
We should all post pics of the dialers we are talking.
so... I'm going to start with mine.
I tought I was the only one with that problem with my dialer,,,
and yeah, post screenshots

LOL We're not whiiiiners!
It does seem that it would be appropriate for a mod to "sign" when editing, altering or moving a post/thread so as to take responsibility and prevent confusion.
On topic:
What about button size guys? I find the buttons are a little puny, but I'm afraid that I'll lose functionality (other than straight dialing) if I try a dialer that uses more real estate.
So.......
What kind of Dialers are there out there? I've got pretty much stock / T-moby everything, having only modded HTC Home, and would like to see if there's a new dialer I can use? I'm interested in what others are using as well!

When we move, merge or delete a thread, we usually leave a redirect link that will expire after say a week unless it's spam and I personally dont leave a re-direct then. Other than that, the forum doesn't allow us to "sign" a merge, move or deletion. However, if we edit your post, say for warez, language or whatever the case may be, in the lower left corner of the post, you will see who edited, what time it was edited and the reason for the edit.

iphone apps

I couldnt find any thing about my question so her it goes.
Are there any apps from the Iphone that have been ported over to the fuze yet, I'm not just talking about games but like programs and utilites also I saw a video a while back where there was an app that used the accelerometer on the iphone and turned it into like a g-tech preformance meter.

PS bottlefed1 - please stop double posting. Perhaps you should read the forum rules before you get yourself into some trouble with the Mods here. Things to consider - 1. Search before asking. 2. Search some more before asking. 3. Do lots of reading 4. do even more reading (you really can't do enough reading here) 5. Do some more searching. 6. if you must post a question - make sure it is in the right section or in the Q&A section of this forum. 7 DO NOT DOUBLE POST 8 if your question does not get any responses it is OK to post again in your original thread to bump it back to the top of the list so that it becomes more visible. 9. Search, Read,Search, Read,Search, Read,Search, Read,Search, Read,Search, Read,

ugh you beat me to it

edited [i need help... my phone wont function normal] =(

I tried to go through most of the forum posts but I dont think I could find my answers..
I was wondering if anyone knows what is wrong with my phone. I did an update and now my phone wont work back to normal. All it shows up is the G1 words across a black screen and that is about it.
When I tried to do a reboot it wouldn't work, I can no longer connect my phone with my USB to the computer, so what other options do I have with this matter? I know my phone isn't a brick.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks and good night..
Jennifer
Can you get into recovery etc..
Power + Home or Power + Camera ?
You should be banned from this forum for misleading topic creation, and being about the 500th person today for asking in the wrong forum. GO TO QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS! Because that's where you will get QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS!
Seriously, is it really that hard?

I thought this was more appropriate, since according to the OP he searched and couldn't find an answer anywhere on the forums, and this shows that there are in fact thousands of his exact question that have been answered. I like the shock and awe of 57,900 results.

When he said he searched does he mean he, put the query in and just sit there hoping for results or did he actually press the Seach button

I bet he just started going through the dev section page by page looking for one with a title that made sense to him.

Because the Stickies were just too hard, poor soul
seriously....is it difficult to read and understand the rules?
your title is completely misleading and your post is in the completely wrong section
please change the thread title (edit the original post and change the text in the smaller of the two boxes)
and beware the remnants of the wrecking crew - if they find this you will have 40 pages of nonsense in a few minutes

Yeah, I'm sure this thread would be getting wrecked if at least one wrecking crew member was here, I'm an unofficial one, we need someone official
Locked and Deleted!
Thread needs to be locked....
This Thread is distracting to the folks who are searching for useful information.
I agree that this "user" was wrongful in creating this thread in the wrong forum/sub-forum, but let it go.
XDA Ops need to do a little better job in tightening up security as well as cleaning up the forums and promoting more mods....
Thx to all Mods/Ops/Senior Users for all that you do to make it easier for the rest of us.

as my signature says....
I used to have the patience of a saint until I joined XDA...
i used to just help, but being here since june has changed me....
after the first few months of just helping you get fed up of saying the same thing day after day

[Q] Which Widgets!!

Hi, Which widgets in your opinion make the screen look good and are informative?
I looked around and can't really find anything that stands out.
I have beautiful widgets which is fine but most theme addons look to samey.
What do you think Zedders!!
Go read every last page of the "post your homescreen" thread for some inspiration, tips and ideas.
I have gone through many widgets, but ended having none.
Battery life turned out to be more important to me.
