HI you guys are awesome
Well hi all, I'm 'new', but not really that new, since I've been searching through XDA topics on many occasions for quite a few years now. Not sure why it took me so long to actually make an account, but here I am.
So about me - half geek, half creative, F/LOSS enthusiast for over 20 years, full time Linux user since 2006, interested in way to many subjects to ever become a specialist in any of them within at least a dozen of life spans. Hence I don't think I'll ever be able to call myself a developer, but hey, we'll see ;-)
Hello everyone, i'm back here after a long, long time
I used to read alot here when i was 10 - 15 but I think i switched to iOs during 2010s and i never really had my phone in the center of my occupations so i bought some macbook & iphone and i started to learn code. (mostly js)
I would be really happy to help users here, if i can, and discuss about my new device. 2020s seems to be redditable as **** tbh, the xda lost kid became some kind of creative dev who's going back to the r00t
Thank you for everything I have read here over the last years!
More than anything, XDA is a community, and we're all here for different reasons.
Some are here to mod their phone--some joined just to ask a question. Or perhaps, like many, you joined so long ago, you have no idea why you're here (which is totally fine! we've been around for almost a decade). And we're in the process of making XDA more useful to everyone here now that we've moved to much better forum software.
But we'd love to know your XDA story: why are you here, and who are you? What's your day job, what phones do you have, where do you live, what do you like to do for fun? We'd love to get to know you!
Also, be sure to spend some time filling out your profile:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/account/account-details
And also adding what phones you have to your inventory:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/account/xda-devices
thanks and welcome. I'm one of the guys in charge and my DMs are always open if you ever want to chat or even complain.
Go ahead and make a new thread in this forum instead of replying to this post.

What's up,
I'm youngspeed and I'm here to further my knowledge on tech. But I also have a few questions.
1 how do I sign in to the app because it redirects me to my browser to confirm authorization but when I do it takes me back to the XDA app but doesn't sign me in. (Update: I was able to sign in so I don't have a question about this anymore)
2 does anyone know how to get Google Camera on the Samsung A10e without rooting or flashing because I have been trying but no success. If there is a way can you send the apk please?
And lastly how do I make a discussion? Thanks

Hello. I have an LG expression 3 and a MotoG 7 power .i am here looking for a ROM or theme for both phones.
A while back I had an AOPk boot animation that was awesome and the alien ROM ( I think) . it had awesome fonts and icons. I was wondering if UI theme kitchen is still around and if either phone is rootable and or would be compatible with the theme kitchen. ?? Its been a while but I really hope you can help me find something . both phones are pretty plain and boring .
Hey All,
I am a Redmi 5 user and I am here in XDA to find a way to root my phone and also see that, if there is any possibility that I can upgrade the Android version as mine is stuck at version 8.
Well i like the internet especially for the opportunity to learn from others and share information with people that equaly appreciate the content as much as i do.
Here i gonna admid i am more on the newby side.. I played around with phones in the past. Mostly following up tutorials of people that really understand what they are doing... And this way i can create something with their help that me on my own would be hard to accomplish... We build on each other in different aspects of life and here i am appreciating to receive knowledge of the ones that are really into electronics/software/programming. ..
Its a strange, extremly complex but logic world that i find myself in when dealing with modifiying electronics .
Thanks for sharing this with me
Hi all,
I was in read-only mode for years and now I had to reply to a post.
I've got a Samsung S8, S20 FE, Chinese Android car head unit. I'm interested in Android apps to make my devices more usable, comfortable and so.
Thanks for everyone
Hi there!
I hope I can find all the answer for my question without posting, so I don't bother you
Heya, I am Aaron, joined XDA for useful apps, support and to comment under programs or roms I use, nothing much to know about me

Hi,
I've just joined to find a solution for my update problem for my unlocked Att LG Velvet. I'm also interested in learning more about flashing firmwares, custom ROMs when the time comes.

Welcome to XDA!
Have a good read and enjoy!
Hi. I'm a french CS engineer and a Debian addict.
I systematically root all my phones and have a specialization in tuning the iptables to not talk to the GAFAMs. Rooted phones so far : Huawei codenames HAM, NEML51, old samsung phones, a couple of Wiko phones.
I've been following XDA-developers for a decade and decide now to onboard :
* Short-term goal : get some help on a very edge case involving dm-verity and kali nethunter on Nexus5X (bullhead)
* Long-term goal : wait patiently for the day when a full debian phone / ubuntu touch will be available at a relatively low price, and help all along
hi. im just a nobody playing around with his phone 3
Hi guys,
I am quite new here and wants to know more about android stuff.
Welcome. Do you have an Android device? Learning how to root and customize your device is honestly the fastest way to learn about Android. Go to Manufacturers at the top of this screen to find information for your specific device.
If you prefer reading, check out Android Source. There is a lot of exhaustive information on how Android works.
Lastly, don't forget to read the forum rules. Good luck and have fun!
My name's Michelle. I have a bachelor's degree in computer information technology. I've always been interested in technology and developing but I have never had the opportunity, other than just tinkering around with an older Windows PC, to try anything.
I've been debating with rooting my device for awhile. And now I'm just ready to jump in!!
I have a OnePlus 8 Pro IN2025_11_C.26 Where do I start??

A very warm welcome, Michelle! Congratulations on achieving your bachelor's degree. I'm guessing you will be spending a lot of time in the OnePlus 8 Pro section. To start out with the basics you should find all you need in OnePlus 8 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion. Very important: make a full nandroid backup via a custom recovery and when you're ready to finally wipe that system and replace it with a custom ROM you'll find a bunch of them in OnePlus 8 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other & OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development. To make an educated decision on selecting the ROM for you, always read the OP (Original Post, the first post of a thread) and the last few pages of a thread. Kernel flashing will be another step where you'll need to research compatibility. Do a lot of reading and when stuck just ask in the appropriate thread(s). Good luck!

Hello everybody.
I have been in the Iphone world for a long time and will continue on that hemisphere.
However, I wanted to try out rooting Android phones but quickly ran into trouble.
I found the rooting instructions here but they did not include important warnings which now led me to finding a solution to my problem.
Should it work out, I would like to contribute and add information to the respective HOWTO guide.
Looking forward to it.

Hello!
I've been coming to XDA for a few years now for the terrific information on rooting various Android devices... I really appreciate the great information in these forums.
I'm a bit embarrassed to admit that I just made an account for the first time in order to ask a question about recovering from a bootlooped tablet without losing data... My luck ran out (or I screwed up somehow) and I had an update failure. I posted my question in the appropriate forum, and if I get a working solution, I'll make sure to update with any details so others can also benefit!
Be well,
Lisa
