Nexus S Forum Etiquette [i9020] [i9020A] [i9020T] [i9023] [D720] etc... - Nexus S General

As many of you know the Samsung Nexus S family is growing larger and larger with new sub models variations with minor changes in either the screen from SAMOLED to SLCD or the way they are rooted, and or radio for different regions.
It will be in the best interest of everybody here in the forum to please TAG your messages Subject line with the model of your phone when you are posting a new message, in return that will get you quicker responses from other members that have the same phone model as you do.
Here's a list of the most popular models that are seen the most in this section of the forum:
[i9020t] or [GT-i9020] or [GT-i9020T]
[i9020a] or [GT-i9020A]
[i9023] or [GT-i9023]
[NS4G] or [d720] or [SPH-D720]

Off-topic other device and upgrading phone discussion

We have these all over the forum, why don't we have one in the HTC One section?
I think it would be helpful for those who are coming from other devices to the HTC One or for those of us considering leaving the HTC One for another device to have a place to discuss these topics.
I personally am coming up JUMP eligible on the 20th and I'm looking at my options. Are you all sticking with your Ones or do you have your eyes somewhere else? The Galaxy Note 3 is really tempting with the 0 down right now. I was looking at the G2 until I heard about the overheating problems - that's too much like my last LG device, the G2x, to take the risk so I've cut it out.
What does everyone think? It seems like we won't see HTC's new flagship until March or so and I've got a shot camera and a bad battery.

[Request] Dedicated section for Umeox x201 (AW-414/420, TrueSmart, etc...)

Really didn't want to do this but EVERYBODY that posted here, post in the Official *** New Device Forum Requests *** thread.
This may be the only way we are going to make this happen.​
Would like to publicly request a dedicated section for the Umeox x201. This covers such devices like the the AW-414, AW-420, Vapirius AX-3, Omate TrueSmart ans at least three other devices based on the x201 platform.
Current issues with not having a dedicated forum are;
Informational master thread keeps getting buried
Cannot add development releases to the Dev DB
Development projects are not being posted due to lack of a development section
The current Omate TrueSmart main thread is now over 100 pages long and includes development, Q&A, general discussions and is near unmanageable
There is a lot of cross posting of the same information on the AW414 and TrueSmart threads because, except for case and name, they are the same device.

A section for this class of smartwatch would greatly help things. It would make it easier to find information because we could have single-topic threads. It would be easier to contribute because catching up with a thread would be quicker. It would allow the community to grow and operate.
But of course it would be useful to US. Every obscure device community could ask for a section and argue that it would help them. We need to argue that our device is so popular that a section is required. Here are some points to consider:
* Within the "Other Smartwatches" section, the "Omate Truesmart" thread has about 40% of the posts of the "MotoActv" thread. However, the MotoActiv has been around since 2011 and the Truesmart has been around since - well, for all intents and purposes, it isn't even out yet and there's still a thriving community
* There are more posts in the "Omate Truesmart" thread than in the entire "Pebble Smartwatch" section. Don't get me wrong, there's a huge and dedicated Pebble community out there. Here on the XDA forums, however, the Umeox x201 community is larger, more active, and in need of a good home
* A dedicated section will improve the quality of the site. Having monster threads like the "Omate Truesmart" thread make the site disorganized and difficult to use. If the information is easy to find, the users are better informed. Well-informed users make a better community. Better communities bring in more advertisment dollars.
* The time to act is NOW. The early devices are beginning to ship, and the there are only a few developers churning away. Over the next month or two, the number of devlopers will explode. Implementing a new section now will allow time for proper organization. Allowing a thread to balloon to 10,000 posts and we'll need to hire more mods to help sort the information into proper threads.
Does it make sense? Is it worth it? My professional experience in forum management (of which I have none) says yes!

Note to Admins:
We currently have info, fixes, development environment guides and so on spread out across multiple G+ communities and posts, two forums and personal pages and are already running into issues where even searching doesn't even find some it. If you decide to not create a section for the x201 please let us know as we will need to find some sort of solution.
agreed
You have my support. Now let's flood the official request thread

Couldn't agree more.
Would be grateful for a dedicated section as well.
I agree. We need a section for the best SmartWatches so far.
Aye, Loki, you have my axe!
(in other words, I support a dedicated forum)
Support!
One more here to agree !!
Omate might kill me for this since I'm one of their forum moderators and an admin, but I think a development forum on XDA is a much better thing then a "special development forum"...
Reason 1:
There are too much wise noses on the TS forums who think they know it all, but over here at XDA I mostly see professionals or at least people working together more professionally...
Reason 2:
There has never been an Asus Padfone series forum over here at XDA (even though a lot of people requested it), and there has been a lot of development for this device over at my Padfone community, but I know there would be a lot more development if the Padfone would've gotten it's own forum over here a XDA... So to make the TS (or any other Umeox watch since they're pretty much all the same, except for the exterior) a great success, proper development is required!
So +1
Agree
And as an avid reader of this forum and member since 2007 (when xda-dev was for xda's only), I support this request.
support this.....
I support this.
Agree.

[INDIA] Indian G3 owners

I am starting this thread to keep it as a discussion point of G3 owners in India.
Here we can discuss about region specific fixes/mods like e.g. gps fixes etc.
Also we can share and recommend accessories readily available in Indian e-com sites(w/o sharing links of course as that's againt xda policies) such as power banks, bumpers, earphones, etc.
Also we can discuss about the upcoming updates as updates are released at different intervals in different countries, e.g. the next v10j we are waiting for.
There is so much to discuss pertaining to our Indian G3 so feel to share or ask anything.
A dead thread exist here -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2755382
Aah.. Couldn't find it in the first three pages so started one!
Anyways, am looking forward to contributing on this one.
For starters, what all accessories have u bought for your G3?
I started off with 32GB strontium Class10 memory card that i ordered just now on flipkart
you can carry on discussing there, a new thread is not required.
Please utilize the thread in place [Discussion] LG G3 **** Indian Users ****

Developer Edition Note 4 Device

I know this has already been posted, just like AT&T, Verizon, Sprint and T-mobile have their own section and in each section there is the Original Development, Apps and Themes ect.....
MODS, please create a device
Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note 4 Developer Edition
this has been mentioned before there isnt enough people with device to warrant a sub forum so it is staying together
Please search before posting. There are several threads on this already
And it makes no sense as there can be no development for the non-dev edition. Just label the threads properly
Just like a US Cellular thread, or any other smaller quantity, same hardware device
Thread closed
Thanks

Gpad F 8.0 request for forum section

I'm hoping this gets found by other Gpad F 8.0 owners.
I sent the following request to a moderator here:
Hello... I'm hoping you're someone I can submit this request to.
I have an LG Gpad F 8.0, and like a lot of Glad F 8.0 owners, we are finidng that some of the things in the 8.3 forum do not work for us. If you Google search "XDA LG Gpad F 8.0" you will find a number of threads. Some of them have become "catch-all" threads where a variety of questions are asked and we have to hunt through many pages before we find replies. Some questions even get lost in the middle of a larger discussion.
It makes sense that at this point we have our own section to better organize this information, and that is what I'm requesting.
I have been using XDA now since 2007 and its strongest advantage has been thoroughly organized information. I hope we can extend that to the Gpad F 8.0 owners since at this point there are a lot of us.
Thanks,
S

So... I'm hoping we can get out of the 8.3 community's hair and get our own spot. I personally need information about my device and after reading a handful of big threads with random discussions, I'm still confused as to a couple of things. I was going to ask in one of those threads but it occurred to me I didn't know which thread to use since most of them are mixed questions.
So rather than post the same question in multiple threads I realized we really do need our own section. There is a fair amount of information now about our device and it would be better organized in a section with separate threads. Would make web searches easier, too.
I encourage you all who agree with this to contact a moderator to try to get our Gpad F 8.0 its own dedicated section. Thanks
I know AT&T was offering them for a dollar plus connection costs, and I hear now they are free with line connection. So i expect there are a lot more out there than we know. A dedicated section will bring them in. If moderators agree and help to do this, I will gladly organize some of the info into a FAQ thread.

Thanks so much for starting this section. i have one of these tablets i traded for and while i like it, there is so much that can be improved on it once we can obtain a recovery and remove the att bloatware. i am using defensemobile as a carrier and cannot use it as a hotspot or tether due to not having a att account. that is my most important peeve with the tablet. hopefully we will start seeing some progress with developement as there is virtually nothing available at this time. i am pretty sure there are a lot of them out there. once again, thanks.
There is a Forum HERE for this.
