Hi all!
I´m a moderate user of a X10 Mini but a devoted Androidfan and writer for the Swedish newsblog/reviewcenter Swedroid.se.
Our readers are very interested in your brilliant work to fastforward the development of non-Vanilla handsets as you solve our problems with speed and accuracy. The forum discussions are largely modification-focused where you play a vital role.
As for myself I usually write about trends and interesting events on a pretty large scale, one of my latest articles was summing up the (western) mobile industry for 2011.
But, to the point here. I´d very much like to conduct an "Inside XDA"-interview with any and all developers here willing to answer a few questions. Partly because you DO deserve some spotlight and partly for my personal interest for programming
However, the really nice thing with such an article would be to serve as a "meet the fans"-event and a look inside the exciting world of xda-developers! We could for example announce the time for the article to be published so that you may answer questions in the comments right away
You may choose how to be presented in the article, full name with a pic or anonomous - it´s up to you.
So, if you feel like sharing your developer-life with our growing readerbase, please PM me!
Welcome to forums
How about giving your readers the link to our Portal, over there you can find nice interviews with Chefs and Developers.
Thank you for the tip, but I can´t seem to find any interviews, been looking here: http://www.xda-developers.com/category/android/
Also, I´d like to conduct this interview with the perspective of "Average Joe" if possible, meeting the persons and their interest for solving problems rather than discussing these subjects from a more technical standpoint.
I can add that I despise the tabloid-media so the interview will be both balanced and "down to earth" meaning I wont bend it in order to attract maximum attention or provoking maximum debate - the developers and their passion for programming itself will do that just fine.
Our readers expect a high standard language and professional content, and I´d love to give them xda
We contacted a1jatt by private message and he was gracious enough to accept our invitation for an interview. In case anyone's interested, you can read the interview at the link below. In case you're not aware, he's the XDA-dev user that discovered that the Nexus 4 supports LTE (AWS). If you have any comments or suggestions, please let us know. Thanks

That was very enjoyable to read, I appreciate that.
Cheers!
Good read! I agree a1jatt should of gotten more recognition.
Good, thorough article. :good:
Keeping these blogs from skip-sourcing would be a full time job
Hello Folks,
My names Jono and I'm just another nerd/phone enthusiast. I've worked in the telecommunications industry for over 5 years (mainly sales and technical support), so I should be able to help anyone with here any technical issues or offer general info on most smartphones.
I've also spent the last two years developing my own smartphone website (fonefox dot com) . We provide smart phone specifications, comparisons and have our own scoring system for phones. Its still a work in progress, so feel free to give some feedback if you feel it deserves any.
Looking forward to to being apart of this community
Can you please make your intro's into the official intro thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=961655
Thanks!
I was the Editor in Chief of Lovable Lumia, a fan site for Windows Phone. We had more than 20 lakh, unique visitors, from all over the world. We provided exclusive news that attracted so many fans. Many articles got featured on famous sites like Windows Central and MSPowerUser ({Mod edit}). With the demise of Lumia devices, the site was not managed and sadly hosting got expired and Godaddy deleted the entire site. But, my social media handles exist as proof of the existence of Lovable Lumia. ({Mod edit})
Also, developed award-winning Windows Phone apps and won so many flagship devices from Microsoft and Nokia like Lumia 1020, Lumia 1520, Lumia 950 XL, etc. Chennai Auto app was featured in Windows Central. ({Mod edit})
A few years back, I made a switch to Android flagship. Have a habit of knowing everything coming up in the technology world. I have a huge interest in Photography and Technology.
I had a chance to watch the Reno launch event on YouTube live. I was totally impressed with the top-notch specifications. Initially, I was planning to get another brand flagship and changed my decision after watching this keynote. Ordered a higher variant of OPPO Reno 10x Zoom on the very first day, without watching any actual reviews. When the device was delivered, I was completely satisfied and started exploring the Camera and Software. I made the right decision. I don't like stock Android with fewer features. ColorOS 6 came inbuilt with Oppo Reno 10x Zoom. It was very good.
I joined the ColorOS community (now OPPO Community) out of interest to contribute more for the users. One fine day, ColorOS SuperFan recruitment began. I've opted for that and I was selected too. And, started being an active member of the ColorOS Community. I became Pre-Creators Community Member.
ColorOS Pioneer recruitment began on some other day. With huge excitement, I've participated and won a free trip to the ColorOS 7 Launch Event. I can't even believe that it happened. As I said earlier, I have a habit of watching launch events. Now, I was invited to a Global Launch Event. Can you believe it? I asked myself. Yes! I won a trip to ColorOS 7 Launch Event and that made all the difference. Contributed to ColorOS 7 with valuable feedback and articles.
Here's my experience thread
{Mod edit}
Within months of joining the ColorOS Community, I was promoted as Creators Team Member.
I have written 90+ threads that gained me 225+ fans in ColorOS Community. My articles crossed 200000+ views. That was a great achievement in a smaller span of time.
Used to participate in ColorOS Contests and won many contests. Last year, I was awarded as the "Emerging Creator of ColorOS Community".
As a token of appreciation, ColorOS sent me an Honorary Certificate for my journey in Creators Planet.
Never seen such an awesome and inspiring Community. For sure, you'll grow with the community if you're active.
Published unboxing videos of OPPO F17 Pro ({Mod edit}) in YouTube.
My passion is all about exploring new and future things in Technology. Being a phone addict, I used to dig deep into new technologies. That said I've covered multiple things that are introduced like new chipsets, features, apps, device launches, software updates, reviews, etc in my articles. And that received tremendous response.
I'm here in XDA Forum to share my experiences!

Hello,
Despite only creating an account today, I have been on XDA forums and news articles quite a few times in the past. I have gained a great interest in various forms of technology and programming, and look forward to contributing in, and continuing to learn from, these forums. I am also a content creator currently focusing on video games such as Fortnite, Minecraft and Destiny 2, but I intend to start technology reviews and impressions in the near future.
If you have any general tips you think I should know about, or if you just want to say hi, it would be greatly appreciated.
Welcome to XDA, enjoy
