Re: How long until I can post in the Dev Subforum? - Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Re: How long until I can post in the Dev Subforum?
I've gotten the minimum required, 10 posts to post replies in the Fascinate Development forums, but it's still saying I don't have the proper permissions.
imnuts just posted an update to his pb&j kernel that I want to download, but it seems like the site he redirects us to is missing the links...in fact all the links.
I can't ask him what's going on because I can't post!

While I can't help you with your posting problem.... I just tested the links you are talking about and they are all present and working.
they are not clickable links. You click his release link in the OP and scroll to the bottom then copy n past the urls he has.
The dropbox does not appear to be working tho....

10 posts I hope

Might wanna PM an Admin about that problem. That'll do you more good than posting a thread about it.

I hate you

Is that really working or is it just "in development" still?
Hyao, gtfo, you are a spammer and/or moron.
Well it says RC so I dont think its fully stable yet
Why don't you do two things:
Add "question" to your thread's title so that forum viewers don't burst in excitement as they see a thread labeled CyanogenMod and think that a release candidate is ready for download.
Post questions in the Q&A section. If a CyanogenMod thread is going to be in the development section, it should be about development.
"Builds for each device are slowly hitting the mirrors. ..and before you ask, there's no Vibrant or apps2ext support."

well, this is what cyanogen tweeted..
"Builds for each device are slowly hitting the mirrors. ..and before you ask, there's no Vibrant or apps2ext support."

if you would have clicked on your own link you would realize that you are wrong...wow, I now see why devs leave xda, it's a shame really, us users need to be more aware. the only person (okay not the only) that didn't post his roms here was htc clay for the g1 but someone would post it here "with his permission" not just random post like this one...it's not hard ppl just do your homework before you post something...

Before anything else....title of the forum is not Cynogenmod for vibrant....lol....
Actually it looks like there is a RC0 release foor the Vibrant but it is likely only available for the devs:
http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/8302-the-state-of-the-galaxy/
It appears a reminder may be in order, about the purpose of the development fora on XDA.
If you have developed a ROM, or are working with others to do so, the development forum is somewhere to discuss and share ideas, post useful feedback and logs or crash dumps, and to discuss a common goal developers are trying to achieve.
It is NOT the place to post your question because it gets higher traffic, or because more experienced users frequent it. Doing this just annoys those who are working on the device, and drives them away. Developers don't want to wade through 20 threads of "Help me urgently" to find their threads for porting and fixing camera issues etc. Similarly, if a thread is designated as discussion for developers say, porting a camera fix, please do not post in there asking "When will it be ready?", "Can I flash this yet?" etc. This is both completely disrespectful to those working on the project (you evidently haven't read the important posts in the thread), and also is making it harder for developers to find comments from other developers or testers when required.
Similarly, don't make loads of "Thanks for your work here" posts in an active development thread. It's just as annoying to developers as asking when something will be ready. If a ROM is complete, then go ahead and thank the developer if you wish, but don't go into threads for devs only, and interrupt it to post "thanks". It's basically spamming, and is treated as such.
If you are posting in development, you should have read every sticky and notice there, and should be actively developing or helping in the development of something. Developing isn't installing a ROM, or using a tweak, it's creating a ROM or other hack or tweak. If you haven't read for several days before starting out on XDA, you are likely about to ask something already solved. I registered on XDA when I first wanted to post, and that was to join in a discussion on something. Sure, join up and ask a question, but read the information available in General and Q&A first, as your question will have been asked before. Search is your friend here, become familiar with it.
Regarding when to post in development if you are not actually developing something, there is one occasion where it's acceptable. If you find a leak of a new ROM, which isn't already posted, and you verify it's legitimacy via either running it, or based on the source you obtained it from, then this is assisting in development, and should be posted in development. If you want to ask when a leak will be available use search first, then if not already in discussion, open a thread in general or Q&A.
If you have a problem flashing a ROM, this is NOT related to development. It's up to you to determine if it is specific to a particular ROM, and post useful information in that developer's existing thread for the ROM. If it happens on more than one ROM, and isn't a known issue (remember you should read several times more words than you post), then find out what you are doing wrong. Check guides written by others, try to repeat the problem and see if it happens every time. Something needs to be reproducible to be fixed effectively.
Once you have identified what you need help with go to the device Q&A forum (general if device lacks one), and make a clear, informative thread that explains the issue, and what you have tried doing to fix it. Did you re-download the ROM? Did you ask a friend to flash it for you, to reduce chance of user error? What steps (exactly) did you follow? What errors did you see (exact wording)? Did you double check all the steps? Did you do a wipe or hard reset?
If you make a clear, concise, yet detailed post, you will find help forthcoming, and should get the problem sorted very quickly. If someone suggests you try something, report back on what happened, did it work etc. Then, next time someone has this issue and searches, they will find this and have a verified and tested solution.
So remember... before you start a thread in development, ask yourself what you are developing. If you can't answer, then stop, step away from the post button, and think about where you are posting. Would it be better in General or Q&A, or is some more time with your best friend, search, required?

how to be a developer on this forum?

I'm a ROM developer, i want to be a developer on xda, how to do it?
develop rom and put them in the development section.. wait until you get some fans.
BAM your a dev
I googled you, if that site is in fact you, then it seems legit once I translated the page.
To even be able to post a reply in the Dev section, you have to have ten posts under your belt. To post a new thread I think is the same. If you take a look in the Dev section here in the Vibrant forum, your rom is already hosted in two other threads. You will be able to host it yourself if you want, and I'm thinking you probably do. If you can prove you are the rightful owner of the build, you can request those others be closed by the mods if you choose to do so. Good luck around here, welcome to the community.
Edit - I wondered where that lidroid rom came from, never bothered to google it until tonight.

[Q] To all and sundry

A couple of quick items for select groups, if you might indulge me. Please.
#1 to XDA Developers Forum: Why is there NO "thread search" within a thread? With threads that are over 100 pages, searching for an otherwise easy-to-find answer becomes onerous quickly.
#2 to XDA Developers Forum: Along the same lines, why am I still "noobish" enough to NOT post in a huge developers thread even tho I have taken three or four days to read each post of that thread? I have read several +1000 response threads, and still can't locate an answer, nor can I post within the most likely place to find an answer: the developer's own thread. All while wading thru TONS of "does anyone know...?" queries and the matching "search-is-your-friend..." replies.
Sorry if that sounds like a rant. *I really don't mean it to.* XDA Developers Forum is an otherwise mind-bogglingly-huge archive of useful, obscure, hard-proven info. Thanks for providing a place for it. Really.
#3 to the Developers. I kiss your feet. You folks rock. And you don't need to be "THE Developer" to garner my respect. You are the guys that try a mod *and report back,* the guys that post helpful links, all the folks that try, and then deposit their results. YOU folks. Hats off to all of you. A user posted "XDA FTW" in his sig (you know who you are) and I'd like to second that. Thanks.
The preceeding message was brought to you by...
And now for the question: Why, oh why, can I not get adobe flash to work? I am using VeganGB with the provided kernel and OperaMini. I have tried flash from the market (10.2). I tried an earlier version (10.1.120.0) because I found threads inferring that it should be an earlier version. To no avail. Playerversion.com wants to know where my flashplayer is.
HALP!

Updating Neo To ICS

MOD EDIT: full post will be made available soon.
I always thought that installing and using PC Companion is pretty straight forward, and that there is no need for instructions, but I guess I was wrong
I was checking this guys history earlier, trying to figure out if he was a spam poster or a 10-poster. Guess I was wrong on both counts, just someone trying to steal traffic from XDA. I would suggest reporting to your forum's mod and let them figure out whether to close it down or to simply let everyone add him to the ignore list until he figures it out.
lol, come on guys, give em a little credit, he tried his best
He is new
He is trying HIS best
grow up!!!
grow up dude ... we are not childs..
I don't believe it is within the rules to post the first couple steps here as a teaser and then the rest on a site other than XDA. It is not about the guy trying or not, and frankly I challenge you to read his first 10 posts and tell me how hard he was trying, but about how things work on XDA. It is perfectly OK to post your blogsite address in your Sig or somewhere, but it is NOT ok to do it in the fashion he has done it above. This needs to be reported if he doesn't change it. Sorry.
Edit: No changes, reported.
