hi
All a request Pls ask all questions in the
gene questions and answers thread which is a sticky.
I will not inform any one in the future if i see a thread opened and if it does not have the relevance to be a new thread ill just close it thats it.
Some one has taken the pains to open a thread and i think all questions should be asked in that thread only.
Remember it also becomes a repository of question and answers for other to use when they need any answer they can search their and get their answer OK
A request to all ur helpful guys help them only if the question is asked in the Q& A thread
the link is given below

hi
thanks buddy but then i need helpful guys like u to help in answering questions only if it is ask in the Q & A thread so all ur nice helpful guys kindly do it
thanks
@haree
nice initiative bud, but i think the only reason people seem to open thread to ask solutions for problems, big and small, is that although the q & a thread does do its work, its sometimes easy to get lost in threads that big...
i've been lucky enough to be helped by the senior members here so i ain't cribbing too much but this site is like a labyrinth for noobs...
take Da_g's thread for wm dev for example...it has a wealth of info, bug fixes and solutions...but its a pain to go through 1650 pages of posts...
and the search fails at such attempts too...
what i'm trying to suggest is to not only try and get all the q & a's in one thread but also have an index in its first few posts so people can jump straight to their concerned problem if someone has encountered it before and has been fixed...
something like what's been done here->http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=669414
it'll make things easier for noobs, won't make 'em have to wait for someone to answer their questions and keep the forum clean...
just a thought...
anyways keep up the good work!!
peace!!

hi
u cant have everything u want this is a forum it is up to the thread creator to do what u want and boss u need to search what im trying to do is just stop people from opening threads just because they want answers many times the answers are available its just that the person is lazy to search
ok thread closed
anyone have a link to the stock sprint rom. The file server that is hosting them in the sticky is down and I need the ROM ASAP! THX

Here you go
but next time this should go in the Q & A's thread otherwise you'll be ridiculed for posting in the wrong section.

Here is another link.
I am sure an orientation video and/or a thread can be implemented for newbies so that they don't commit the cardinal sin of posting in the wrong thread. Despite all that, if they still committed the sin, then a mandatory participation in a confessional/atonement thread could remedy the damage.

Here's an idea; instead of posting in the wrong section and seemingly not caring about it all, why don't you just report your own post instead of saying "mods take it down"? You know pstevep doesn't have all the time in the world to be waiting for someone to post "mods take it down" somewhere in the forum in some topic?

Please Post in the Correct Forums
Moving to General

[Q] ? Why didn't you post in Q&A ?
thought this was best place to post,general???ahh sorry glebun,yeah should of looked more closely,
And again, you even put [Q] in your post and Q&A wasn't good enough?
It stands for Questions and Answers. It's also the help and troubleshooting section, as you can see in its title
OK OK GLOBUM,so I got it wrong(health and safety)don't rag me for that,im only asking advice,back off,we are not all perfect like YOU

Thread closed
AS I SEE MORE AND MORE WRONG THREAD'S HERE(ITS REALLY ANNOYING; AND BECOMES MORE , SO IF U DONT EVEN READ THE RULES, READ THIS!!!!) I WANTED TO POST THIS:
AvRS said:
Hi,
You may have noticed that you now have a Q&A - Questions and Answers sub-forum. This is now the home to all your burning questions you have about your device. Please no longer post your questions in General or any of the other sub-forums, especially not Development
You may notice threads disappearing from here and that's due to a bit of a cleanup moving recent questions over there where they're now more relevant. Obviously this won't be done for old threads but if you don't see a thread here that you were contributing to then head over there.
Also if you see question threads posted in any other sub-forum then please just use the report button and we (the mod team) will move them over, even if it's your own thread, that's how you can notify us. Remember the report button isn't just for bad things, it helps us help you.
Summary:
If you tick the box under "IS THIS A QUESTION?" in your new thread make sure you're in Q&A
Have you typed [Q] at the start of your title yourself? It should be in Q&A
Does your thread end in a "?" or belong to the who, what, when, where, why, or how group it's more than likely a question so off to Q&A you go
You get the point so please post correctly
Thanks

I know this is an odd request but I need the picture to show a friend and I cannot find one.
Could someone take a picture of their Galaxy S 3 booting up where it says "Samsung Galaxy S 3 i9300" just before it gets to the glowing Samsung Logo.
Thanks and I'd be happy to mark 'thanks' afterwards. I know it's a weird request haha.

Uh... google?
Also post questions on the Q&A section and not the General section.
My mate needs one without watermarks or branding that he is allowed to use for his blog or something where he won't get into trouble with copyright or whatever. I obviously already directed him to google. He said if needs be he'll register here himself and ask. Though I offered because I already have an account here.
Also I thought this was a general topic, not exactly a 'Q and A' topic so I posted it here.
Its not a topic its a question .
Topic as in open for general discussion .
I would post boot i have no logo .
My then about where it goes. A mod can of course happily move the thread if needed.
He just needs a picture of the words "Galaxy S III GT-I9300" on black as it boots up. Not the spinning blue logo or whatever.
Dunno if I remember correctly but even if you custom flash the phone it should still have that before the rom boots up its own logo etc.

Your topic title indicates a question. The word "Could" always is used for a question hence should posted on the Q&A one.
As for your request I don't know how to take a screenshot with just the text dunno also if that's even possible best is try again with google I'm pretty sure you'll find one eventually.

No, he probably just looked at the google search result for mor than 10 seconds. Scroll through the results. The image is there.. with no "brandingf"
I'll say it one last time.. because I've already repeated myself and asked nicely quite a few times...
My mate doesn't want to use an image from google. I don't understand how that's hard to understand.
This topic isn't a debate about being able to lmgtfy
It's "Hey, if anyone has a moment, could they please snap a pic of their SGS3 booting up. That would be great and I'd love you forever"
Honestly I would have expected the worlds biggest smartphone forum to have delivered by now. It's a very simple request and I have asked nicely and I thought we made it clear what he wanted. You guys are normally so helpful. He's not asking for a custom kernel forged from custom silicone. He's asking if you'd take him a quick pic of your phone on a table/chair/floating in the air, at it's boot up, and be cool with him putting it on his blog.
If it could have been me who could have helped, I would have done it no questions asked.
Actually you haven't repeated yourself at all. This is the first time you've said "not from Google".
Previously you had said:
- no water marks
- no branding
- allowed to use.
All these criteria are met on google. Moving the goal posts now is pointless. Besides this site is indexed on Google. Guess what happens to a picture we post here?!
Jeez. Get a grip

There's a picture of my phone. Its in a case though. Credits to rootsu @ xda

HAHA man they get so upset around here dont they? I dont have a s3 anymore since I am now on the note 3. I would have done it instantly.
Come on people give the OP what he needs and move on. No need to bash him or anything. Sure google works but why go there when there are thousands of s3 users right here?

BTW the logo doesnt change when you flash a new rom. You might have a red wording with custom recovery but thats it

This is a developers forum, not a "help" forum. We're all here to develop, learn from developers and contribute to ongoing development. Of course there may be backlash when we're asked for non-development stuff that is already readily available in the public domain.

First of all i am not going to start a virtual argument over this, and secondly there isn't anything wrong with just helping someone so we all can just move on. Instead everyone wants to poke and joke.

No one helped sadly.. I got a friend of mine whom I knew had the phone to take a picture for my other mate who wanted it and she gave him the express permission to use it. I honestly thought that XDA would have helped me out by fulfilling the actual request within minutes.. I guess I was wrong.
Oh and thanks Jet.
