Use the Smartphone General forum for GENERIC posts, hacks, tutorials, questions!
If you have a question / tip / hack / trick also applicable to (most) other Smartphone models, please PLEASE post it to the brand new General Smartphone forum. Few Smartphone users check out the forums of other Smartphone models and, therefore, your questions / tips / other stuff will be read by a LOT more people if you post it to a general forum than in just a model-specific one.
As has already been pointed out, everything should be posted to the new General forum that isn’t ONLY related to the particular model. Some examples of what should be posted to the General forum and what should stay in a device-specific one:
posts like “the HTC Vox (s710) has a very bad-quality rubber cover” (example HERE and HERE) should stay in the device-specific Vox subforum because it’s (currently - we'll see how the forthcoming HTC Wings fare in this respect) only the Vox that is affected by this problem. The same stands for problems with the bootloaders of a given model or specific ROM upgrades, ROM versions, unlocking etc. only applicable to a given model (and nothing else).
posts like Live Messenger CAB’s (example HERE), OpenVPN hacks (example HERE), Adobe Flash hacking (example HERE) etc. should ALL be posted to the General forum because these hacks, information etc. can be used on (almost) ALL Smartphone models.
if you have a question that you feel can be answered by other Smartphone users, do NOT post it to a device-specific forum, but to the generic one. Generic questions are “What Web browsers should I use?”, “How do I configure my e-mail client?”, “How do I install Flash on my device” and so on. ONLY post questions like “What about ROM version X.Y for Smartphone model XY”, “How do I enable HSDPA in model XY”, “Where should I get WM6 for model XY”, “I have problems with the rubber covers of my Vox”, “My Excalibur’s buttons are hard to press” – that is, questions you’re absolutely sure about belonging to model-specific forums.
Also, make sure you continuously monitor the forum because I’ll post a lot of brand new Smartphone-related information in there.
Again and again,
POST ALL your questions / tips / hacks in the General forum if you find it can also apply to / answered by the owners of other Smartphone models
frequently visit the new forum for new tips / questions and, last but not least, my tutorials / roundups

Hi guys,
I am new here.
Welcome!
Here is some advice to help you get along on the forum:
Most important: read the forum rules (if you haven't already). Although we have a forum named 'Development and hacking' this board doest not allow posting or discussion of warez software cracks and similar stuff.
The 'hacking part' refers to tweaking our devices.
Before asking anything search first to see if it has been answered recently. But do not use the built in search engine. Use google with the site:www.xda-developers.com so you can cover the WiKi as well.
(Some people on this forum tend to flame 'n00b questions' particularly when they are repeated many times)
And finally it is highly recommended you use your signature to specify your device and ROM version. Also set this info in your profile (if available). This will save you the trouble of listing all this info every time you have a question (for many problems it is important to know exact information of the device to offer a proper solution).
And although I do not speak for the site administration I think it is not a good idea to use commercial links in you signature. If you want to advertise on this site pay like everyone else and help support it.
enjoy ur stay in burj-al-arab
Guys and gals, sorry for cross-posting this to several device-specific subforum, but, given that there are so few people reading the General forum (http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=256 ), I thought I have to let you know about the brand new MIDlet Bible I’ve just published, particularly because device-specific subforums are always full of MIDlet-related questions that are almost all answered in the new Bible.
You can find it at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=339579 .
And, yes, please DO follow the General forum, there is an immense wealth of information there ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=256 ). If this is the first time you’ve been pointed to there, make sure you read back in time and check out all my articles posted in there.

Hi folks, I’m not from around these parts, I live in the Kaiser world!
I have a friend who is not technically minded, but wants me to update the ROM on his diamond.
I need to put a stable ROM on there that he can use day in day out without having to worry about solving bugs etc himself as I won’t be around to do it for him! He’s just your average, email, music and texting user – doesn’t need anything specific.
Over in the Kaiser section I would recommend PDA Ultimate V19. There are better versions after this, but in the drive for perfection and speed, each new release throws up bugs that need tweaking every now and then – this is what I’m trying to avoid.
Please can you let me know which version of a ROM you would recommend for him? The one you’ve run for ages and always return to. If there are just one or two tweaks I need to make to it, if you could detail those and I’ll sort them before I hand him his upgraded diamond back never to be tweaked again!!
Thanks in advance
Ps. Mods – didn’t want to clutter the ROM section with this, so put it in here.
Please be considerate ogf others and read the rules before posting.

ATTENTION!: We are glad that our community is growing really fast. Unfortunately, the number of topics in the threads of the forums grow in a very larger manner. Unfortunately not every user is aware of the general forum usage and posting rules. As a direct conseque to that MODERATORS will apply the Diamond forum, as one of the most active forums on the site, a very strict moderating policy which might imply:
immediate thread deletion when newly created thread addresses an already discussed topic;
immediate thread deletion when newly created thread addresses an issue such as "Which ROM is the best", "Diamond vs iPhone", etc.;

I did read the rules.
Did you read my post?
also interested
I am also interested in this. I have read all the threads till now and kinda convinced me not to update the ROM. From what i've read, ROM v 1.93 has many bugs (e.g. phone rings one and then no more, send SMS to someone and I receive the message -> these are only single member problems, not happened to many people). In the end ... any suggestions on ROM update?
Yeh - what i always return to is stock rom and SPB Mobile Shell v3 on top of it - it's awesome...
