Hello all,
I'm New Android Fanatic/ Tech Enthusiast. Ever since I was 8 years old I've taken apart My toys to learn how they work. Just to fix it or make it better!!!
I love building things and learning new stuff. My OCD gets the best of me sometimes but eventually I grow tired of it and find a new obsession.
Fast forward to now and I'm on my 3rd Android device that I've messed with and am learning how to fix!! Which has led me to this wonderful place of knowledge!!
So thanks for the opportunity and I will now dive into the deep end to learn how to swim!!!

Hello XDA! I hope everyone's having a good time. This is Monis. I am a content curator, curious cat and a technology enthusiast (i.e I like to leverage tech to read between the lines and solve problems).
I've been coming here for a while now trying to learn how to use an android to its best potential. I finally found the courage to join and introduce myself.
I hope to learn as much as I can in the coming weeks from developers across this board and contribute where I can.
I am currently focusing on developing applications as a hobbyist and getting to know more about open source.
I need help in getting to know more about open source forums and real world problems that can be solved so that we don't have to reinvent the wheel again and again.
I hope to have a good time here and contribute to the best of my abilities.
Good day!

Hello and welcome Monis!
you came to the right place.
enjoy!
Hello everyone. I am here to learn new things. we have about 7 to 10 non-working electronics in our home. Thought I might like to fix them and distribute them to the grandkids, or just hoard them for myself. lol Over the last 10 years i have been visiting this site and have learned a few things. there is nothing like fixing up stuff that you thought you could never do or understand. Mostly when i would fix something it was by accident, and i never knew how i got there or what exactly i did. Anyway, it should be interesting for sure. Thank You all in advance for your help and also for the help ive gotten in the past.
Welcome aboard XDA! Fixing is fun... keep doing it! Enjoy your continued journey around the forums!
Just paying respects to the site and everyone who make it possible for the rest of us clueless fool's I'm actually a professional mechanic at A custom shop here in Texas and I have a natural curiosity to know how things work and make em better and I've recently added android as my new victim I don't know much so far but I have learned alot of basics so far to the point of I don't need new phns every week so if I can some how help with testing or anything please feel free to ask I'd be happy to help and learn more thanks
Welcome to XDA!
Oh, that's nice. I was like 11 or 12 when I learnt about android and windows.
I guess tinkering with it kinda brought me to this point.
We always welcome people who want to learn!
I'm just starting to learn about this sub-culture of smartphone modders. I started out with rotary dial phones a long time ago and I always dreamed of having a portable computer that you can carry around in your pocket and now we have smartphones. All my google searches led me to this website and the amazing gurus who develop and help regular people here. This is what technology is all about and it should be for everyone.
Looking forward to interacting with some of you and learning new tricks.
Best regards.

Welcome to XDA!
Thank you @orb_selektor - very kind of you to write.
Greetings and salutations! I'm a new member but have been reading threads on XDA for about a year now. About 6 months ago I decided I wanted to make the jump into tinkering and really learning about android and what makes it tick. I had purchased a Motorola Moto G Stylus 5g Denver Variant, and decided to try and root it and install a custom ROM . Well that was a very tedious task, as some of you may know and a little above my skill set. But I hunkered down and did research and studied to sharpen my aspiring developers sword. I learned about the kernel and a/b slots and so on. Still haven't figured it all out but it hasn't stopped the train. I learned about dsu loaders and GUI 's and hand have installed a few GUI's and even Android 13. I have recently figured out where to find the factory firmware and patched my first factory boot image for flashing. I got stuck on the TWRP part ,since they don't have a official version yet, but haven't got discouraged. Currently researching a few work arounds and am really interested in this "Super Stack" I've heard about but can't seem to find very easily. I guess having this phone model was a great way to throw me into the fire and get the wheels of knowledge moving. A year ago I wouldn't have thought I would be even trying any of this. I always have read Science and Tech related things but never made the leap. Now it's becoming more than a hobby. I'm learning code ,Linux, python, or testing, and a slew of other things . All self taught and out of a passion for knowledge. Not bad for a 40 year old pool man with one year of college lol. I just want to say thank you to all the Developers and Contributers to the XDA platform. Without you, it wouldn't have been possible for me to even begin to do any of these things. The knowledge and other things I have learned from this sight are priceless. And it has given me the push to learn so many other things and different skill sets . Given me a new outlook on life and a passion to follow my dreams. And for that I'm forever thankful. I hope that wasn't to much lol. Thank you!
