Hello XDA Community,
I am trying make my site top google site for extra credit in a class. I'd appreciate if every one could spread around my URL across the web.
Mod edit: Link removed
Thank you:good:
Saw someone reposted this. Just wanted to say thanks.
Good luck, however, this is not what XDA is here for.

Here's the XDA-DEVELOPERS Kaiser Wiki.
It's VERY nice; make sure you search it first for ANYTHING Kaiser-related.
Here's the XDA-DEVELOPERS GENERIC Wiki.
It contains generic info - not only Kaiser-related questions. You will want to read it first if you for example look for a software. Of particular interest are Menneisyys' articles, Bibles and tutorials in the half of the page - you'll definitely want to check them out if you have a generic software / gaming / application / hacking-related question.
Search XDA-DEVELOPERS using Google
(already setup to search XDA-Developers only. You can also easily find posts by a specific user - enter user name followed by search words)
OR
Search the WIKI using Google
(already setup to search XDA-Developers WIKI only. WIKI = Categorised library of useful facts and information)
OR
.Search ENTIRE INTERNET using Google
.OR
.Search using Forum's own Search facility
Remember that Google takes some hours to "crawl" sites for new info. so results will not show the absolute latest posts.
OR
You can alternatively search the whole site using this google search. http://www.google.com/coop/cse?cx=011628417748231547811:k6qzkiiveps

The site has running costs and donations are needed to pay the costs. Donations to XDA-Dev can be made by clicking on the Donate button on the brown bar near the top of the page. (Same bar that has the User CP, Search and Log out buttons.) But here's a link anyway: http://forum.xda-developers.com/donations.php
Any donations to individual members are entirely up to you. The principle we have is that members do not act for financial reward. If however a member makes an outstanding contribution or if you think they could do more but perhaps due to lack of equipment they can't - then you might make a donation to an individual

Is it possible for the [search forum]/[search this thread]/[search wiki] buttons on this site to be linked to google directly instead of the current situation?
I would hazard a guess that most folks are searching for older threads to check for answers to their (duplicate) questions and such, users should be able to see newer posts without searching at all.
Thanks
I know the site Admin has been working on the search functions in the hunt for improvements to be made. This I think is on-going but perhaps we'll get an update in a couple of days.

i recommend some super duty spring cleaning and get things more organized and possibly limit posting access to stop clutter in here

The problem is that is an absolutely mammoth task. There are thousans of threads and tens of thousands of posts. It is also complicated as the posts are often inter-related and deleting one leaves others hanging and not making much sense.
The idea is that the WIKI is the place for confirmed answers and tested solutions. Every member has a duty I believe, to spot things in the forums that have reached a sensible answer to problems and then go and create a section in the WIKI that cuts out all the chit chat and offers the edited solution in a neat condensed form. So yes, some forums do end up messy, but they are the talking shop, the WIKI is intended to be the tidy area for concise answers/solutions.
Not enough members take on this responsibility - the Mods are volunteers and there is only one day to day Admin. The Mods are generally kept busy with reported posts and squabbles of one sort or another and spotting the odd thing as they browse.
So if folk have a particular interest in a certain area, or have followed a problem from start to final answer, then get to grips with the WIKI and add a section that gives the refined solution.

Ahhh the happy ventings of an angry scotsman
I saw two n00bs helping each other earlier on today. It made me all warm and fuzzy inside lol
So,
My new site:
http://freewarepocketpc.org
I don't have all of the programs on there but I have a lot of useful programs and you can use. I know there are a lot of other sites out there but these are my suggestions and things I know work on the AT&T Tilt.
Hope I don't get banned since I've contributed and asked questions.
My site is http://freewarepocketpc.org/
I like the idea of having a site to collect all the various useful bits and bobs on, but you really need to be crediting sources for your posts.
For example: in the KaiserTweak post you don't link back to XDA-Dev's thread, you don't credit the author, and the download link is on your own site. Bad form.
RSS Support ???
Is there RSS Support for you blogs ???
I would love to have it in Google Reader.
By the way nice collection ...

Looks like a good resource. Thanks!
Looks nice, another site I'll have to check everyday now, thanks.

Not to mention illegal
I'm afraid that starting threads to promote your own site or even other sites of this type is not on!.
If someone asks a question, by all means suggest a site or even refer them to your own site but we are not here to be promoters of members sites. So the way you let folk know about your site is by being helpful to others , answering questions and OK from time to time giving a link to something on your site
I also take note of the poster above who feels you might give more credit to the developers and in particular this site.
There is also the fact that until this point the OP has only 4 posts. That brings this thread precariously close to SPAM.
So far the OP has the balance wrong here. It should be lots of help and support to other members and perhaps the ocassional mention of his site. NOT 4 posts and a thread started with the sole purpose of promoting his site.
This is not open season on starting threads to take people away from here rather than supporting THIS site by putting up the collected links and tips in our own Wiki site. If we already have the information in the Wiki (as I notice lots of the registry tweaks are) then there is no need to refer people elsewhere.)
I am inclined to close this thread, what do the members think?
Mike
I'm with you Mike.
For mikechannon
Hello,

No reason to be a jerk on here. Search is a good function to use and you would've found it by searching but just posting the link you already knew of could've easily solved the problem.

I was in no way rude. I said please and even wished the OP fun using the app...I have it myself.
But lets be honest here...that post was about 20 threads down and the open was making a request.
This is why I keep my development to myself. Watch your words when judging others. Reported.

Yes, there was but this is supposed to be a community, and your actions shows otherwise. It's so easy to say "Hey search it up," but just providing the link would have ended the thread; in turn letting it die.
Really? Reported? How childish. No jeers or hurtful words were used, my opinion is that even with a "please" involved that was still a jerk response. This will be my last response on this thread in terms of speaking to you. If you have more to say take it to PM. I forgot how butthurt people on the internet get.
Enjoy your night .
I was thinking about reporting tincbtrar for being rude. Honestly, there's a lot of posters on XDA that would rather jump down your throat for being unable to navigate all 10,000 boards successfully, than to actually answer your question.
I am truly sorry to the OP if I portrayed the image of being rude.
However, The first rule of this forum is to use search. This rule was created so we wouldnt have people creating multiple posts. It is a hinderance to everyone who uses the forum to see mutiple posts. This, for one, is the second request for the same application.
We all do our part to share, and if you read through that thread, I am sure I did my part to help contribute to the community.

Well, search this forum for "supernote", and THIS thread is the only one that pops up. Really, I know search is the default answer for a lot of long time-ish members, but before telling people to "just search", realize that search is not the answer to everything.

No, if you search the forum using advanced search from a browser (not the xda app) you will also get this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1282279&highlight=Supernote and another thread on Writepad in which Supernote is mentioned.
The xda app is terrible for searching, so that is probably why people get frustrated and just post new questions. I feel ya. However, it does get tiring answering the same questions over and over. So in the words of the immortal Rodney King "can't we all just get along?"

Thank you Okantomi! You are known for helping a lot of people...and for a while I was trying to do the same.
However...when I see backlash like this I give up. The point of xda is to help develop the community...and its a lot easier to help and share when people follow the rules. Creating posts just clutters the forums. I search three times using different search engines to ensure multiple posts are not created - which also ensures people can develop...not answer the same questions five times.
Alas...the apology was heartfelt and hopefully we can all get along.

It would be a real shame if you got discouraged from sharing. I just take a few days off and then it's all fresh again.

Hey guys, there's a contest going on in my local town, I was hoping to see if ya'll could give me some comment likes. I'd win a ipad mini!
So a direct link is here: Mod edit: Link removed
It's under the post by "Eric To" which says:
"The curry fish ball soup is my favorite because of the richness of the soup and the balance of fish balls, veggies, and the over-easy egg. #BPbacktoschool"
It has 63 likes currently. One guy has over 160, but he was using some bot, he got those in less than 30 mins.
If that link doesn't work properly, my comment is on the first page of this site:
Mod edit: Link removed
It's on the first post, the "back to school" post. Once you click the comments section you'll see my post detailed above.
Thanks!
XDA is a site for the development of Android and Windows devices. It is not here for the purpose of diverting traffic off the site so that you can win free stuff.
