I know Android is all great and stuff. But what about Boot to Gecko?
Seen it on the S2 few days ago and i somehow like it.
Does anyone know detailed information about its development state in general, meaning how useful it is right now?
Do you think its easy to be ported to our phone?
This isn't ment to be a "request" or anything. It's just pure curiosity from my side.
B2G just looks very interesting to me.

I'm not sure which devices can run B2G and i haven't done it myself yet but Androidcentral just did a nice little walk through on installing it on the Samsung Nexus S. The B2G project have instructions for some other devices as well i'm told.
Anyways i hope this helps you. It does look like an interesting project and i wouldn't mind running it myself but I'm a little worried to do it on my main phone (Galaxy Nexus). Wish i had a spare.
Right, because i don't use these forums much i haven't had ten posts and i can't post outside links, so if you head over to the androidcentral forum you'll be able to find the post, its right at the top as a featured article at the moment.

did anyone tried to port it to the i9001 sofar ? (B2G Firefox OS)
Yes. There is a thread about it. But afaik no one could get it to boot.
Sent from my GT-I9001
I noticed that the 6.2 inch S21 has it's own dedicated forum with the typical group of threads that XDA always offers - Questions, News, Development/Roms, Accessories. However, I have not been able to find a dedicated forum for the S21 Ultra? There is only this thread - which only allows us to combine our comments/requests/news or whatever into a single thread - which obviously does not offer any kind of organization of similar threads like XDA usually does.
Am I missing something ? Is there a forum like the S21 Forum for the S21 Ultra? If so - Link please? If there isn't one, why not? Why would the basic S21 get it's own group of 4 threads while the S21 Ultra only gets one? in case I am not making myself clear, here is a link to the S21 Thread - S21 Dedicated Threads let me know if you know of something similar for the S21 Ultra.
I couldnt find one too
It is definately needed. This is very messy

Agreed.
Be careful what you wish for. When the S20 first came out, the S20U had its own dedicated forum with sub-groups for reviews, etc. Then they decided to merge EVERYTHING, and a lot of the S21U specific posts from the previous month or two were just wiped away. Personally, I would think there should be one S21 main forum, with sub-groups that are either distinct or separate, as appropriate (e.g. apps could be combined for all S21, but real life reviews should be separate for each). I don't know why they can't get this right.
I, too, would like this.

This could work as well, but anything is better than that.

Greeting guys. While I know that the new forum layout isn't what we're all used to, this is XDA going forward since the migration to the new platform. This new "Prefix" based system should help with speed, indexing and searching once a few of the kinks are worked out. I know we are all creatures of habit, but as the saying goes, "The only constant in life is change."
I hope you will all be patient and understanding going forward, and will grow to like the new platform as time marches on, and we appreciate members such as yourselves being the backbone of what makes XDA a great place to learn, share, and do what we love doing to our devices. Even if that means creating a very expensive paperweight from time to time.
Best regards to all: Badger50

Thank you for your response.
It's good to see XDA progressing in that matter.
As a small feedback, please consider putting the filters as buttons on top of the list (of the threads), in order to select or de-select one or more categories. Should be much more user-friendly

Thanks for the follow up and detailed explanation. It all makes sense - and I hope XDA will remain open to listening to it's members for the occasional adjustment - if it is deemed appropriate.
One quick thought - assuming a group of phones like S21, S21 Plus and S21 Ultra, would we have a main thread that combines all the phones together - much like the S20 Note has done - then threads like this thread for the Ultra might be inside that "mother thread" ? Just a thought. In the meantime, I love XDA and will be around for a long time - "if the lord is wiling and the creek don't rise"..... Thanks again....

i like it this way, much easier to view new posts
instead of clicking multi sub group to find new posts.
Ive been trying to get used to the format but i dont like having all the topics in one thread.
I prefer to have the sub forums of old so i can read what i want to read in that specific forum and not have to sift through a bunch of stuff i dont care about .
Ive been spending much less time here because of this, its thats frustrating. Hopefully enough people will raise this same thing and things will change!
So many posts that are intermingled together that initially rely on the correct prefix to be relevant are causing me issues, I'll try to get used to it, but I don't see benefits .
I also thought that buying bitcoin at 3 dollars was stupid, just saying...
I mean how would prefix this, which I think is true BTW.?
Samsung money card won't run initial activation on Samsung pay unless you have chrome installed .
Samsung browser will not work, I've tried it and thought it was a bad firmware install but it isn't.
Does any body else have this issue?

That's a question... You're just prefacing it with some info.

Question. Would be the correct "prefix" in this case.
Yea it was. I may be grumpy at the new format thanks

I agree with that. And I want to add to it:
Once you filter a category (say with the proposed button which is a very good solution) and you want to MARK it READ, this action should solely mark read this category only, not the entire forum!
edit: I'll post it here too.

Try to find the best section to post and then ask a Mod to move your thread to the selected section.
Im sure this way you will have better chances to get help.
Good luck!

Hey there and welcome to the XDA family! Yes, VM should work but it's better to search for the appropriate thread/section and ask your question there. Make sure to thoroughly search first, there are a lot of answers out there already.
