Hi @limjh16 and thanks for this thread
I've added a link to this thread in my signature. The same way I did about @noc.jfcbs's new [HOW TO] [Q&A] How to best phrase a request to receive the most suitable answer?.
By the way, I really think you @noc.jfcbs should be added as a supporter of this [HELP THREAD][i9300][i9305] Ask any Question. Noob friendly. I'm sure you should be helpful. :good:
@noc.jfcbs I think you should be added as well. I'll also put a link to this in my sig as we have very little people here but a lot of newcomers need this thread

Done! Now we need to do some minor advertisement whenever someone asks a very general question, not exactly belonging to a ROM thread
Hey everybody, can anyone tell me what the heck is wrong with the xda forums lately? There are multiple things going wrong and some functions of the site dont work at all?
For example:
- Clicking on notifications in the top right corner doesnt open the received notifications, instead it opens this page http://forum.xda-developers.com/usercp.php
- Cant expand the names in a post to see who gave thanks, again opens a different page
- Options like attachments, smileys and all other options when writing a comment dont work (their not clickable)
Maybe there are more, but these are the ones i came across till now. Anyone having same behavior? or maybe it's just my laptop thats tripping... In any case its very much frustrating!

Everything Is Working Fine, Double Click On The Notifications Menu Will Show usercp.php Instead Of That Menu, The Fix Is To Click Just One Time, I Don't Know About The Others...
But You Can Try Between These Different Solutions :
Uninstall And Re-Install Your Current Browser.
Or Use The Old XDA Layout.
Or If It Always Failing, Try Using Google DNS.

About a months ago, I reported xda forum issues but never received a reply. If interested check here and here.
Normally, I don't use my GT-I9305 for visiting xda. However, due to your post I checked the xda functionalities by using the Gello browser that came with my ROM.
Everything is working as expected and normally except that the [view] button is missing to expand the thanks row to see who gave thanks.
For the still existing issues with xda on my laptop, please refer to the first link above.

Well the 10 post rule is just like an adaptation period, so that the new members understand what's going on here and how things work, without giving headaches to developers. I'd advise you and your friend to go to any general subforum section and simply help people having trouble, instead of opening threads begging for posts and thanks. 10 posts isn't much.. I make around 50-70 a day without getting into the developer sections. Now if you follow what most n00bs do and start rant threads or posts like "this is my 8th post. Please ignore I'm trying to raise my post count to post into development", your posts will be deleted, your post count will fall again and any thanks you got for those posts will be lost. That's the way it works. Read the rules

For all your other points, refer to Archer's post.
Hello XDA !!
Now I know what you guys are thinking... (I don't care a damn if you are caring an Android site. There are millions of Android sites and we don't need more)
Well... I want to create a unique Android site relating to Android apps. I want to create a site which reviews android apps in their respective category.
For example.. the title's would be like Best Android Web Browser.
The site would help newbie Androiders to figure out which app was the best for their need (email, web surfing, etc) and for this audacious project I need some help.
I am looking for people who are experts on Android apps and also people who know about making websites (design, SEO). If you cannot help out directly then please give some advice.
One of things I hate about sites are ads. That is why I will keep my site ad free !!! I want everyone to know that I am truly an Android fan and that is why I am creating this site. Unfortunately, since the site will not be taking in any money I also wont be able to pay you any money. I am going to spending money hosting the site.
I realize its still a work in progress but it will be improving everyday.
The site is called
http://appdigy.com
In short I need ALL help but I could especially use help in:
HTML
Graphics
Writing Articles
SEO
Post here if you can help out... Every little bit counts
While it's ambitious and not a bad idea, I'm pretty sure it's against XDA rules to talk about any outside/competitor sites that would take adtraffic from XDA. That said I would be willing to write up a couple articles just for the heck of it.

This is okay - he's not breaking any rules. Other websites have been started by groups formed on xda before now. As long as they're not creating something similar to xda (a mobile development forum for devices similar to ones we support or will support), and as long as they're not trying to make money out of posting here then it's not against the rules.
That being said, I don't think someone who joined the site a few days ago and has only 1 post has enough reputation to expect a particularly favourable response. I suggest that Super2cool gets involved with the forum a bit more and gets familiar with what goes on here before expecting to recruit other users.

The site doesn't compete with XDA in anyway. My site focuses on a specific niche within android apps while XDA is more about phones and android ROMS. Nevertheless, I could use your help

I truly see where you are coming. I know its only been a few days since I joined the site and I know I don't have enough posts. I have been trying to get familiar with the site and so I haven't been posting much and have been reading on XDA. I have realized that the people on XDA are very cool and smart.

So i got a Nexus 7 so i'm kinda leaving these forums (Like you care ) Now, for "the words on my mind", the Android Development section in here is really messy, full of "WinZip" roms and a little tweaking, and don't get that angry about this post, if you would think about this, you would agree with me I know they are starting, and they are beginners but c'mon look at TheWhisp He started to learn by not posting any "WinZip" roms and just researched a lot and where did it get him? Being an awesome dev that's where it got him. Think about things that i said in here. And i hope you all farewell
Sincerely,

that's absolutely right! everyone can do it, but there's no reason to post those frankensteins here... i was doing the same, put some tweaks and apps to cm7, change few graphics in framework and systemui to my likings, center the clock, but i never posted anything like that because it's pointless...

Yup, that's true. About 90% of stuff in dev thread is nothing but just themed crap which everyone can do yourself. Even I did some experiments and learning stuff but that's no reason for me to post some crap and say " This is my first ROM. I am learning right now. I added this ............ crap. Hope you like it. ...........................PRESS THE THANKS BUTTON."
Seriously I don't know what they get from this. I remember some guy recently posted Lunar UI ROM. (Totally useless. Just you need to add a theme and icon pack and you are done). No offence but that is really not worth saying custom ROM.
DQiB man. Irritating kid. First he spams the dev section with 6-7 cooked roms and now he posts a tutorial for others to spam the dev section :| even though he got banned, he should get an IP ban.

Yup, that's true. About 90% of stuff in dev thread is nothing but just themed crap which everyone can do yourself.

Maybe, this is the reason we got an "Original Android Development section". No cooked ROMS or ports are allowed there. Its all about "Build from source"
Yep, that's why XDA made the Original Development forums, but that wouldn't have been necessary if there were A LOT less of those "WinZip" roms, or even if there were none.

Hahaha! And he called his tutorial "dev" lol but there's nothing about developing in there
The development of Mini is rapidly dying now. The only good dev left doing real development is TheWhisp. Pretty soon the dev section will be dead.

that's not correct I was eagerly waiting for his tut
because i have a karbonn smart tab 1 which is having 0% development so I wanted to do some tweaking in the framework but now I don't think its possible
and yeah I agree posting roms with some tweaks in dev section is wrong

There are pro's and con's of this guide, good thing is it will help some new users to understand how android works and give them some starting point, the bad thing happened some time ago and it's those winzip roms with no significant changes

Yep, as soon as my contract ends I'm getting rid of this piece of crap and getting a better phone. Not only is Galaxy Mini a crap phone, but the dev section is full of crap too. All the good devs have left because they've got better phones now.

I have been having lag issues since upgrading to 4.2
I been lurking around the post looking for answers but nothing I've tried has worked so far. There is lag everywhere- from the lockscreen to opening an app to closing an app to pauses and freezing in browsers (i use 4 diff browsers with no real preference), and tonight I was frustrated enough with the slowing buffering in the YouTube app that I'm now posting this.
If I don't fix this soon I'm just going to sell it. I put up with lag on my Samsung Fascinate for 2 years and I thought those days were behind me. Ugly lockscreens I can live with- lag I CANNOT.
I tried rebooting after update. I even shut down and let it sit awhile an hour later.
I tried clearing the cache from the new option in Settings
I tried some app from the market that adds blank files and delete them (cant remember what its called right now) EDIT: Its called Forever Gone and its in the Google Play store.
I don't have time to read thru tons of postings to find the answers- so hopefully I can get consolidated answers in this post.
I've never rooted or ROM'd this device. Its been flawless since the day I bought it until the update. I am not looking for people to chime in saying theirs works great. I just want helping on getting this device back to buttery smooth please.
EDIT: Thanks to idevice12345 post, I found that my lag problem stemmed from Google Current's sync feature. Turning that off in Google Current's settings and rebooting has fixed 99% of my lag. Hopefully that helps others-- getting help around these forums is a nightmare. Self appointed knuckleheads trying to derail our information highway.
Holy hell NO ONE CARES!!!
STOP HITTING THE NEW THREAD BUTTON OVER YOU NOT LIKING 4.2!!!
ITS SO DAMN ANNOYING.
For god sakes I've seen like 5 of these threads pop up today.
There is this new thing, its called google. Use it.

I like 4.2 I just don't like the lag. I looked thru the threads for a couple days now. Just haven't dug deep as it takes alot of time. I can google too. Your the one whos damn annoying right now- I'm just looking for help, not complaining. Look at my post, it even says I need help. Thanks for the worthless post tho.
p.s. I clicked your link. I'm not trying to downgrade- I'm trying to fix the lag. Can you google that one for me? I'm too lazy.
Hey mate, this isn't a "Post your question and we'll spoon feed you answers" forum. Saying that you don't have time to look for answers won't cut it.
As for lag, try to do a clean install.

I been around XDA a long time for a few of my devices. I came here for help.

I don't have hours and hours to dig for weeks thru tons of postings. Like I said, I LOOKED for 2 days now.
I am genuinely asking for HELP. I don't want to downgrade- I want real post about what to try. I'm sorry that it is offending people. Your frustratred with my post and I'm frustrated just asking for help.
You guys are so uptight. Just want to hear from people with similar experience and workarounds or whatever it takes. I'm contemplating a factory restore but I have everything so dialed in the way I like it that i'm saving that as a last resort.

Okay, since your pretty much begging at this point, try this, https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kovit.p.forevergone&hl=en. If that doesn't help download stock 4.2 and backup your apps and re flash 4.2 and re install your apps one by one to see if one of them is causing the lag.

I am baffled that I am getting blasted for this. I re-read my first post again and besides sounding a little snotty because I wanted to get straight to the point (which I did), I don't see where anyone could think it was a hate on 4.2 thread.

I have found we can continue discussion here as long as the thread is in the OT forum.
I am creating a OT lounge for fellow DS members to carry on.

I couldn't agree with you more Oly. I have posted my feelings in both the DS OT threads and hope that they are read by our moderators, even if nothing changes.
This is the worst thing I have known XDA to do yet. The moderators constantly refuse to do anything about the newbies who refuse point-blank to bother searching and then get all upset and aggravated when you tell them to do so, yet they decide to close threads which serve a very useful and valuable purpose on XDA. Putting device-specific threads in the general OT forum just means more chaos - if every device has an OT thread here and they are used regularly then the other OT threads will get hidden 8 pages down the list.
I cannot see a single valid justification for this decision and have just about lost all the respect I once had for the forum moderators.
Your logic is spot on. I'm very disappointed in XDA's decision. There really was no need.
I completely see where you are coming from, the OT forum will now have so many device sub threads everywhere, so other OT threads will be buried... Regular OT members will also be affected by this, with all those extra threads.
Can't express my disappointment enough...
I'm sure a few DS people won't come along, the ones who've already left (enigmaamit etc)
