XDA Comments

Why does XDA not let me use my Disquis profile for comments and instead gives me a new one? Its so confusing and irritating :/
Is there a way to change which account is used?

New Trend of ROM Discussion

XDA is forum for Custom ROMs, Discussion, Troubleshooting, etc.
From sometime Thread OP are creating a Telegram group to discuss bugs, troubleshooting and other things, and posting the Links in OP then what is meaning of creating threads on XDA. Why XDA mods are allowing these threads. My personal opinion is all the discussions regarding the ROM or Kernel should go on thread not on other platforms.
What do other XDA members think. Share your views here to stop these practice's.

I understand what your referring to as I've seen this as well from time to time...
I had thought that there was an XDA Forum Rule(s) that restricts the sole use of the Telegram on the forum (I believe that there's more to this rule as well)
The choice of one of the following threads is probably your best bet for providing this type of feedback.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1976627
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1987254
Only a Moderator/Administrator (like @MikeChannon or @Darth for example) can really provide a clear outline/understanding for this rule.
Good Luck!

There's this we put out not long ago, https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s8/how-to/telegram-chat-channels-forward-t3764521
Basically, no TG links should be anywhere on xda, except in post number one of a development thread, only. We realize devs may want some quick communication with members for some issues, and real time chat is obviously quick.
But no links to TG should be anywhere else on xda. :good:
Just hit report if you see links outside of the first post in a dev thread, and mods will handle it.

Thank you very much for your time with providing this valuable guidance!
Now I know more about the XDA Policy regarding this specific topic.
I am not a big fan of the Telegram being used as a primary means of support for a development and such that's posted on the Forum but, I felt that it could be an alternative tool in addition to active support on the said Developmental Thread posted.
Just my personal thoughts... :thumbup:

Exactly! One TG link in a dev thread op is supposed to be an optional way of communicating. Definitely never the only way. If it's found that a OP is only supporting, discussing or updating on Telegram, the thread would likely be closed if its discovered to be this way. :good:

Thank you for clearing this up.
Sometimes some user post a bug or need troubleshooting, other user guide him/her to a Telegram group for that specific thing and do not discuss it inside thread. This should not be permitted.
I think there should be strict rule regarding what is permitted to discuss outside the thread.

Just my opinion on this (and from what I understand regarding the XDA Rules)...
I believe that there can be certain circumstances with providing guidance via Telegram but, it shouldn't be the sole option for the member.
As a member myself, I actually don't use Telegram but, I have used it previously under certain circumstances that are very seldom if that.
As a developer myself, sometimes there's support/guidance that is preferred to be taken offline and, if needed, the results would be determined to be of value to other members within the thread or something that didn't.
I do personally prefer to keep most conversations on the thread as something beneficial to other members but, there has been occasions that I'd prefer to take it offline to prevent misunderstandings and confusion.
I hope that I had stated the above okay via text... :thumbup:
I did notice that this discussion was also continued elsewhere, and even responded to by @the_scotsman and @Weapon X as well...

I understand the want for this but lets all really be honest. Development and support has been moved off XDA for years. A forum setup just doesnt really benefit the fast paced nature of currant development. Even back when I made roms for the old Galaxy S1 the team would do all development off site. Mostly because it was a faster response time. XDA has become a staging ground for roms while everything development and learning are done in chats. Like The most popular telegram or whats app and I hear some are even using discord (not sure about that last one as it seems out of place on a gaming messaging platform but hey)
As for the rule about the link only being in the OP. Well they have been getting around that by sending PM with the links or just flat out posting the links. No one reports it so no mods see it unless they stumble upon it.
If XDA wants to remain somewhere other then a place to post rom links thy might want to figure out that IM style messaging setup sooner or later.
Darth I can tell you that thererare many roms that are only updating on telegram and only offer support there as well. Everything posted here is just the "stable" versions if you know what I mean. Long has XDA been being used as a traffic grab by many.
Just my 2cents.

Is Custom ROM safe to install in smartphones? because most of the custom ROM's soft brick the phone.

I agree that there is another thread where we can discuss that

Does anyone know if a XDA forum will be created for the Google Pixel Slate Tablet?

As the title says i cant seem to find one. Anyone know of any other forums?

Looking for one myself..haven't seen one yet.

Looks like we have one now...

Where???

Do you mean this one?? Ya gotta be kidding me! I'm talking about a forum like every other Android device on XDA,
How about a forum that has:
QUESTIONS & ANSWERS,
GUIDES, NEWS, & DISCUSSION,
ROMS, KERNELS, RECOVERIES, & OTHER DEVELOPMENT,
THEMES, APPS, AND MODS,
and ACCESSORIES
Does anyone know why one hasn't been created yet?

It looks like your a bit lost and/or confused here so I'll do my best to help guide you a bit.
The following thread is dedicated for requesting a New Device Dedicated Area on the Forum...
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1660354
... Please read the first 2 posts on that thread for understanding the process itself.
If you require any further guidance/clarification on any of the processes/procedures, regarding this topic, your best bet is to Post/PM the ET Administrator @O_G (whose responsible for this) and, if needed, @MikeChannon (whose one of the XDA Administrators).
In addition, the following is the Enhanced Tag Link for the Google Pixel Slate device. It's the first step in the process of the creation of a Device Dedicated Area on the Forum.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/google-pixel-slate
I hope that I had helped you out in clarifying this process... :thumbup:
I wish you the best of luck!

Well as linked by Ibuprophen we have threads for the device specially tagged to keep them linked together but also to let us see if it is very popular. If it is we add a forum set if the number of threads rises to around 3 pages of threads.
Currently I see only three threads tagged. There may be more but you'll need to give us links to any threads for the device that aren't yet tagged.

Maybe @MikeChannon can close this thread to prevent questions with answers already provided as well as Post Count ones too.
Thanks a bunch!
