There isn't a section in the forum for this but for those of us who have put in the time here thought this would be great, and when Nunyabiziz you starting contributing to this forum with more than 38 post and and some software development then you can decide where posts go.

Post counts isn't the point here also the way I see is that the more posting you have the higher the chances of you making an ass of yourself. In this case which is found to be true. I guess for the members like myself that has been here longer the June 2010 know that there is an EVO General sub forum. I believe in the saying, "It's better for people to think that you are stupid then to open your mouth and confirming it.

Voice opinion requesting OFF-TOPIC for Epic here

I guess we need to be the first section other than general to get an off topic section. Our users are ridiculous.

I sent email earlier today for this exact request. As you can see I am not the only one that wants this!
Edit: I will hit thanks tomorrow ran out of thanks today.

I personally like this idea but I can see how it may get out of hand. Flagging thread for mod/admin review.

I agree, I do personally think you're correct.
I do also think its a fine idea for all phone forums going forward though.

Thank you. Anything to stop our users from complaining about everything.
Posted by Mr. Z's Epic 4G.

we dont need an off topic within the epic section. we need a cage.

How many moderators do we have for the epic section? Is it just a had full of moderators for all areas of xda? Just seems like moderators are popping out of nowhere? Funny thing is haven't even heard of such people and posts are being closed left and right.

How about a Epic chit chat forum so they can throw all the threads in there....like this one.. I do not like seeing them. I want to see Epic threads.
All the vote for me...go click this..charity messages need to go. Everyone has issues whether it be physical, financial or whatever, nobodys life is perfect. If everyone decided to start a thread about their relatives sickness or some bill they got hit with this place would be 10 times the mess that it is now.
I am fine with the charity stuff in your signatures as they can be shut off.

I vote for immediate deletion of any threads that don't fall under the category named in the title of the forum - so if it isn't Epic related, it should be in another section. If it isn't smart phone related, it belongs on a completely different website.
As far as social topics, XDA has no need to compete with facebook/google+/etc...

ICS and Jellybean Rom Discussion Thread

I figured I would open this thread due to the all the hooey going on and also the clogging up of Kushdeck's and JaredtheGreat's ICS thread no longer on here, and with preludedrew not posting his roms on XDA. Any questions or issues are welcome and anyone that can help,can feel free to assist. No links will be posted here. Please follow @preludedrew on Twitter for updates and downloads. Please do not post links unless they are your own. Lets keep this thread nice and friendly and please follow the rules of this forum....that being said Thank You!

I've been running the rom for the last 24+ hours. I'm really impressed with how stable it has been. It has some issues mainly dealing with the gallary/camera and setting photos as things etc. but still, for it's alpha stage it's not bad.
I applied the car-o-dope settings and it seemed to calm it down a bit also. These roms should get real fun here soon!

Agreed and the battery life is outstanding. The gallery seems to settle down after a while, but I've been using Quickpic as a picture gallery and makes setting wallpaper and cropping much easier...it works well with ICS and I've gotten no fc's using it. Its free in the market and is a great alternative to stock gallery

You don't have to be a twitter fan, it takes 2 seconds to create an account and search who you want to follow, and check it periodically...keep it as an app on your phone so you don't have to keep signing in all the time. I recommend following @kushdeck as well because he posts test builds not available on XDA also, actually he just posted his alpha 4 build with working camera a little bit ago...

i didnt see what the big deal was when someone made a thread in the dev section. guess drew didnt either.
per his tweet
"preludedrew:Fyi the thread on xda for evo 4g doesn't bother me. Better than others that don't give credit."

Yeah, I love how everyone was freaking out about a link being posted without even knowing whether or not Drew would be against it. Download links are visible to everyone with an internet connection... there shouldn't be a restriction on posting them.

The problem is with noobs flashing the Rom and something going wrong or running into problems and asking. the noobish questions that the Op isn't qualified to answer. The reason he doesn't care about people posting a link is because he doesn't have to deal with all the noobs and a-holes...

Except noobs flash ROMs and ask repetitive questions all of the time.. Why should we care if someone foolishly flashes a ROM they know nothing about? In any of the other threads, users ask questions which are 9 times out of 10 answered by other users, rather than the devs themselves.

So we couldn't have a thread with a link in it in the development section because the OP wasn't qualified to answer questions, so you open a thread that serves the same exact purpose WITHOUT a link to the ROM? If you think I'm here to troll you are sorely mistaken, I merely am posting my thoughts in a thread, just as you are doing. I fail to see anything I've said or done to make myself more of a troll than you or anyone else here.

You call him an A-hole for posting a thread in hopes of clearing clutter from other threads, and I'M the troll?
The thread was perfectly at home there. It is a ROM in active development made by a dev who no longer posts here; but he has no problem with his work being posted alongside proper credit. The OP posted it to give room for development conversation.
There are multiple threads set up like this.. the CM threads, for example. After being posted, the poster usually never comes back and all questions and concerns are answered by users like us.
Posting that thread in the development section gave room for people who create mods to share their work, as well as to discuss different ideas regarding the fixing of certain bugs.

NOT Another Goodbye Thread

Well its not... eh sort of just ordered my gnex today. Soo pretty soon here I will being jumping forums. Id just like to start an appreciation thread. I don't know if most people realize this but, this forum is in pristine organization. Looking at my new forum... it is SO unorginized so crowded, and people hardly get along. Here people collaborate, help, and inform. However we do have our flame wars.... but those are soon resolved. Also people here are very appreciative... I don't know how or what exactly I did to deserve 900+ thanks... but people sure do appreciate things. Anyways to wrap this up id just like to say thanks for the wonderful expierence with android and xda. Had it not been for the orginized and close-nit community we have here in the Epic 4g forum I would still be running an out-dated version of android or a bloated version.
Thanks
So here express what you are thankful for in this Community.

Loving this phone!

Hey guys, recently moved to this phone from the HOX+. As I've researched before, the only negative I can see is the burnt out pixel that is very very tiny in the left hand corner of my screen. It doesn't bother me. I had to go through 3 devices to finally get one that didn't bug me so much, but hey, what are you gonna do, right? I'm an assistant manager here at RadioShack in town and I've seen on the two I've sold that they both had the same problem. Oh well, I say it's still an awesome phone. I have no rooted or unlocked the phone because I feel there is no need yet. The stock ROM is already fantastic and battery power is amazing, too. Just wanted to post this and ask what kind of apps you all are running and get some suggestions on how to make this device EVEN better. Thanks!
Sent from my HTC One using xda premium

Welcome, had mine for a couple days. It is perfect. By far the best phone I have ever had. Even my iphone loving manager said that she is considering moving to this phone. She said it is beautiful. Re the apps, I think I saw a post in the themes section that had a list of the best apps. Give it a look.

This is a forum. A place for discussion. Why close a thread that's discussing things out?
People who always think they know everything and refer every thread he posts to "use the search button" & "google knows it" would kill xda itself due to reducing the pageviews/lesser income in ads.

I know right? I see one guy ask a simple question and 20 guys jump on his thread trying to explain (in very lengthy replies) how its a waste of bandwidth to ask the same questions over and over again and to learn to use the search button..
So we get a thread with 22 people , the OP, 20 idiots raging and 1 guy answering the OP's question.

Well anyways, I just simply wanted to ask about some cool stuff for the One. Seriously, amazing phone. So can anyone give me some tips or anything that works good with the phone? Anything in general? Instead of arguing with so called geniuses (when in all reality, it's just a phone) all day who wanna close the forum because it somehow doesn't meet their "standards". Thanks guys! Just really wanted to know more about the phone!
