XDA giffgaff thread.

So, I decided to make this thread for anyone here at XDA with questions concerning giffgaff, who don't want to go to the giffgaff community.
You could live abroad and have questions on giffgaff, or you may just have a question.
I am an avid community member, and I am often updated with information.
Sorry if this isn't allowed, but I don't see why it shouldn't be.
Maybe get it stickied?
Thanks,
Liam

I opened a giffgaff thread myself a while back but it got closed by Archer because this is a development site, not a place to push commercial enterprise. ( His words, not mine)
I'm sure this one will have the same fate.

Actually, I asked a mod, and he said this thread was fine to stay
Oh, and I don't like being linked to posts like that. Look to your left <<

Ah right. Fair enough then
You on about the noob thread? Cause if so, its always there so the noobs might just click it. Unlikely though

Don't know if it's me or browser but i can't see Want to Buy section anywhere. Link please.

You also have to be a member at least a year to see it
Edit: Marketplace Changes - UPDATED MARCH 10
Starting tonight, we will be implementing the rules detailed in our previous announcement (below) with a few modifications:
1. You may sell 5 devices per month instead of 2 (each device must be in a new thread).
2. All current registered members will be able to use the marketplace regardless of tenure on the site or number of posts. New members will NOT be able to use the marketplace until they accrue 50 posts and one year of XDA membership.
--=-=-=-=-==-=-=--=-=-=-=-=
We allow people to buy and sell in our XDA Marketplace forum. We realize that this is a great service to many, as it enables trading and selling of devices so that our members can always try to have the latest and greatest mobile devices.
Historically, we have taken a hands-off approach to the Marketplace, as our primary focus was to keep the XDA forums clean to enable the best environment possible for development. To avoid scams, we installed a feedback system last year that made users accountable. But, that hasn't been enough.
Effective 10 March, we will be placing tight new restrictions on the Marketplace to further avoid dishonest conduct. The following will be in effect for anyone to post in both the Wanting to Buy and Wanting to Sell forums:
1. You must have 50 posts
2. You must be a member of XDA for at least one year
3. If you are selling, you must take a photo of the phone with XDA as a backdrop on your screen with your username showing
4. If you are selling, you may only sell two devices per month, and each listing must be contained with its own thread
Also remember that transactions shall not take place via PM and that anything other than vital information (member information such as address, etc) for payment and shipping purposes, should be stated within the thread.

Sorry if I have broken any rules. And if I did it was because I didn't know of the existence of this section and that you had to comply with the rules already stated. But let me add that I might just have 100+ post, a minuscule count compare to most here, but you can verify that most of them have been to try to help members in some way or another and in a respectful manner. I know that this is a great community but some members need to chill and take things less serious at times. So please go ahead an delete the thread if it's your ultimate decision. And thanks.

That rule should not apply to this guy because he has been a member since last year...

Contact a Mod, you should be able to access that forum, that rule went into effect for NEW members, it was not retro-active.

OK will do.

They locked and then deleted your thread on inconsistency of moderation?

This isn't the best way to voice your opinion.
If you're not happy with the moderation team then contact them via PM.
If, however, you're just asking hamdir a question then try PMing them instead of making a pointless thread in this forum.

He asked Moderators to close the thread due to people trolling there.

Ah. Ok. Better than the alternative.
Sent from my Tricked out HTC One via xda-developers application

If I'm not mistaken Hamdir said he was quiting XDA due to the S4 versus One conflict on both HTC and Samsung forums. I took a peek at the allowed S4 vs One thread on Samsung area and it is a shame that there's plenty of trolling and One bashing over there.
Hamdir's Quiting thread was here just half an hour ago...maybe he deleted it, i don't know, i don't see it anymore.

I don't see the point.. I know there are rules but they always will be broken by someone
Nothing is always fair, so might as well ignore it and move on with life

No the issue was not about breaking the rules
its about the imbalance by allowing two such a thread over there and disallowing a similar one over here
anyway my comment thread was deleted because mods are looking over the matter

We are on the internet, Dont make a big fuss about it. And its just a phone, don't go dramatic like that, looks silly.

This type of discussion is not allowed, especially in a device forum. Thread closed.

More app support for QuickWindow feature

Loving the QuickWindow feature of this phone, but disappointed by the small number of apps that support it and the limited functionality of it. The Galaxy S4 version allows for complete reading of incoming text messages as well as their dismissal. And also to visibility of who your missed calls are from too I think..
It would be great for Google Play Music to be supported also.
So I guess this is a request for development along those lines... Thanks!

Have you tried understanding XDA forums and learn where to create threads. Wow its getting annoying.

No I haven't. Sorry. I knew there were specific forums for specific purposes, and knew this was not the section to post a question, but thought a development request was fitting. I apologize. Admin, please delete thread as I've already posted it in the General Help Q/A section..

There is a thread in the QA section with a list of ROMs. Kernels are not an option.

This is the help section. I asked for help, and was told to be self sufficient.

While that is true, we are not responsible or required to help. Everything you need is easily accessible and available to you. You need to make the effort.

I'm the weakest link? Yet I have thousands of posts and over 1500 thanks. You on the other hand have less that 500 posts and less the 70 thanks. On top of that I have previously held the title of Recognized Contributor. Only was it lost due to a misunderstanding. Shall I call in @Naddict? He is a mod and will say the exact same thing as I have said.
How but this? If the OP can't take the time to browse the front pages of both the QA and General sections, I nor anyone else will have the time to help.
All this time wasted could have been time spent searching and gaining answers and in the future. Instead of being a helpless mooch, one could become a contributing member of this site.
Furthermore, SpiritFyre, you provided absolutely nothing to this thread. So why did you bother commenting? Was it to help or to flame? I was not being mean. I provided a legitimate answer in hopes that the OP would benefit themselves. Yet they want to be lazy and you want to say I am mean and am the weakest link.
Here is the deal. You, Spirit have provided little to this community since 2008. I have been here for only a few years and have provided more than quadruple what you have over many devices to include some that we have never even had forums for. If anyone has any say here on what I should do, it is me or a mod. Not you. Your unoriginal insult bares absolutely no possible help to the OP. At least I told them the exact section to look in, while you sit here and babble off old sayings and a line from the weakest link. And the OP needs to search. There are literally 3 sections with the answer. The general section that has a thread with a link to MY SS QA thread, the development section again has a thread with a link to my thread and the QA section that has *gasp* my SS QA thread. All of them are literally on the first page of each section.

If you dont like people getting off topic on your threads. Dont do it on mine.
Still looking for a answer.

All users are expected to do some searching prior to posting questions, those are the rules.
As this question has answers (as stated above) and it is clear there is not value of additional, constructive commentary in here. I am shutting this one down.
Users are expected to read, study, and learn. The back and forth junk does not help.
