Does anyone knwo if the CDMA version will be lumped into these threads or will it get its own device folder?
themes, apps, and general questions will likely have the same forum like how it was for the rapheal, tp2, etc.
CDMA and GSM will likely get different subforums for development.
Now we have multiple development forums for each carrier but for some reason we cannot manage to have discussion forums based on the carrier? Why not? This does not make any sense at all.
Trying to sort through all the info is a real pain in the neck. I am the type that tries to read everything I can to avoid stupid questions that can be easily researched, but the current format seems dysfunctional to me.
Most posters do not tell us what carrier they are on when asking questions or providing information, so much of the info is a waste.
No offense intended toward the mods, but I believe there is a better way to handle this phone.
I have had multiple phones and have never seen so many issues on an XDA forum before.
PS. can we unsticky the pre-order discussions yet? I find it annoying when viewing the forums on my phone to have to scroll past useless threads.
Sorry for the mini rant...
Hope everyone has a great day!
What's your suggestion?
Agree, there needs to be an entire section for each carrier. General, development , QnA, and themes.

I agree that things could be cleaned up a bit. I think it would be better if the "Original Development" forums were subforums of each of the Development forums. I like that the development forums are separated by carrier and that all the other forums are not, but there's no reason to have two completely separate development boards for each carrier. I also think some of the stickies in general discussion could be taken down.

I agree that it is a mess. The new "Original" development section does not make sense. We do not need it and we did fine without having it in the Nexus One forums.
Can we make a development forum that pertains to all devices and then have a separate one that only works for the individual devices. E.g.: Kernels would go in device specific development, and then ROMs/scripts that work for all devices would go in the general development forum.
The last thing I need to do is scour the ATT, Verizon, and Sprint development + their Original Development Forums to see if I can use any of their ROMs/Scripts, etc... 9 different development forums are too many!!
Why does each carrier have two separate development forums anyway? The ones on the bottom don't even have anything in them really? I thought this was some type of error.

Sorry. I should have provided the solution.
Go back to the original format when the forums were based by carrier. I know it would help new folks. As the popularity of this phone increases the problems will also multiply. I would hate for someone to mess up their phone by taking advice from a person on a different system.
Anyway that is my 2cents on the topic.

Agree, I have no f-ing idea what the "Original Development" forums are even supposed to be... the description confused the hell out of me. As far as I'm concerned. A ROM is a ROM. Why do we need 2 threads for vaguely different types of ROM. Who the F cares? This is the first forum I've seen that makes this stupid distinction.
I agree with the other guy that this unnecessary forum should at least be made a subforum of the development forum... or at best deleted entirely.
I don't mind the combined discussion threads, though.
I agree with separating the carriers, but the two separate development sections for each carrier has been around for months. It was that way with the SGS2 and works fine. So, yeah, the only change i would like to see is to separate carriers.
i agree, we need a cleanup on aisle S3
If enough people post in this thread, maybe the mods will reconsider the overall setup of the forums for the GS3.

Dude, that signature is bananas... it's taking up half the screen (which looks even crazier compared to your 1-line comment). Just sayin' :silly:
My suggestion that I brought up before to a mod.
"I have an idea that would help both mods and us xda user when it come to SGs3 forum. General and accesories can be left without carrier specific names. Then sprint, verizon, att&t, and t-mobile can have their own sub-forums with development, Q&A, and themes & apps.
Ex.
[Sprint]Gs3
- Dev
-Q&A
-Themes & Apps
And last the title of the Gs3 forum title should be changed to
"U.S Samsung Galaxy S3 variants ( Sprint, T-mobile, Verizon, & ATT&T)
With this two sub forums can be deleted that are present now since they'll be apart of the carrier variant sub forum."

Seems like a reasonable plan. I hope the mods consider it.

Might as well just make entire different sections like they used to. Including their respective general sections.
I agree with the idea what the original dev forums should be subforums on the dev forums, but I totally understand what the mod's were going for in regards to having a general section for all carriers. I'm assuming the idea was that it would create more of a community if we were lumped into one general forum, versus all being isolated by carrier. I wonder, if it was split up by carrier, if we would have gotten as much help from non VZW dev's who have come over to show us support. There might be a better way to organize things, but I also like the idea of a more connected community of SGS3 users across carriers
The other solution is to keep the QA, Dev, etc forums, but instead have subforums for each carrier. This way solutions that worked for all carriers could be posted in the main forum for each section, with carrier specific solutions in the subforums.
Galaxy S III Development
T-Mobile Development
AT&T Development
Sprint Development
Verizon Development
[Below all these would be a forum for development that crossed over between carriers, not necessarily for ALL carriers, but if there's any crossover]

I know that there is only a limited number of the edge made but I was wondering if this forum will ever be split into carrier specific pages. I now own the AT&T variant coming from the note 4 and feel that our device should be split into separate forums based on carrier like the note 4 is. Us AT&T and Verizon users do not have root and can not use alot of the stuff in delopment section yet or things still to come. Also I feel like we can't start a efficient bounty thread for root not having our own forum. Maybe a moderator can set up forums for different carriers or maybe this is a shot in the dark. Comment if you have an opinion.

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

Thanks

Hi people,
I have a Galaxy s10+ LDU unit, IMEI number is 0000000 and I need an opinion from someone a little better than me
I'm wondering if it is possible to check if the motherboard of the device actualy has the ability to connect to the GSM network...
I rooted the device and flashed the latest firmware with Odin from sammobile
Many thanks
S10+ Live Demo Units have network capabilities. I think.
Ok so this is weird(I think) Ok so I acquired an S10 LDU and firstly to clear up any confusion, my father owns a retail store that sells mobile phones. We got in Galaxy S10 LDU’s from the network supplier that we provide in store. I study...
