Clean the forums a bit? - Samsung Galaxy Mini

I'm not sure what the policy regarding useless posts on the forums is, but in my opinion about 8/10 topics could be deleted altogether...
I've been reading the SGM forums for a year or so, flashed a lot of ROMs and solved a lot of problems, and posted a couple of useless posts. About six months ago there was mostly useful info here, but now if a search for anything, there are just threads like "OMGplzzzamigonnabrickmyphoneififlasangrybirdsinmyphnfrmPlystore!!!!!?)(&%&/LOL".. it's frustrating. It's really hard to find even the stuff i know are here, and have read some time ago. (Should use bookmarks more)
So, could the mods use a heavier hand in filtering all the pointless and plain stupid threads here?
(If this post is useless or pointless, mods can feel free to delete it.)

You're right. Noobs are taking over

Agree but this thread is also useless.
Find sth wrong use "Report" mod cannot read everything u know:cyclops:

yea something like this
I think that error 500 is because the forum is overloaded...

Begin from yourself. Dont create threads for that...

How did you try searching for it? If you say you tried searching for it, then let's just give you the benefit of the doubt. My question is do you even care about learning how to search for things?

How to make a theme?

How would one make their own theme? I want to make one for my phone!
Try the UOT Kitchen (link below) as a starter. There are tons of options as long as your rom is deodexed.

I am sorry if my post came across as harsh. I don't want to discourage you from posting. That is what XDA is all about.
For what its worth, I am eating my words now, as this thread did end up being valuable.

True, while they are not allowed we still have other VS. threads in the N5 section that have not been closed so it looks like they are letting them stay.
I think they are great and don't understand the reason why XDA would lock them anyway. If people do not care about a certain phone vs. another don't read it. It is not like the titles are misleading like so many other worthless threads that get opened here.

Probably because few are as well thought out and presented as yours. Most are juvenile and pointless. Yours is pretty good though. Thanks!

[DISCUSSION] Cleaning the TW Lollipop build

I started this thread in hopes we could discuss the cleaning process of this new lollipop release. There's quite a bit of bloat that could be removed, but since this is new, it's hard to know exactly what could be safely removed without facing a bootloop or force close loop. Does anyone have a list of what can safely be removed from the lollipop release? I opened Root Explorer and searched around a little and there's a ton of knox related stuff in there, for example. A little polish bloatware apps as well.
EDIT: I apparently removed far too much in my cleaning attempt as I faced a bootloop and I'm now currently reflashing through Odin,

This isn't a question per se. A discussion, if you will. I edited the first post to reflect just that a bit more.
Not everything needs to be sweeped up and sent to the Q&A. This is a valid thread since so many users will face the same problem.
Why do you want everything moved out of the General threads section? I've never seen such aggressive mods who fail to promote activity on a board and actually stifle collaboration. They take the fun out of everything XDA stands for.
Just delete the folder of the bloat and than it should work faster, i would only want someone to create a custom kernel stock modified, becauss battery drain is bad xD

That's just it. Deleting too much makes me end up in a bootloop. I gave it a second go and ended up in another bootloop. It seems you can't just up and remove all knox related files (are they tied to something bigger?).
Hmm.

Knox related libs and a lot of code written into the firmware for a start, plus other files not in app or priv-app folders

I searched for "knox" in Root Explorer and removed every file relating to "knox" (a couple of apps here and there and lib files). I guess that was the mistake; wrecklessly removing it all.

A, If its a question it needs to go in Q&A, doesnt matter how many people face the problem. if theyre searching like the rules tell them to theyll see it in q&a
B, he posed it as a question, hence i was pondering if its shouldnt be in Q&A, as thats where questions go he responded and said it was meant to be more of a discussion topic and he needed to rewords it. the reworded thread isnt a question but a collaborative effort therefore its not a question.
C, making people post in correct sections isn't a stifle on activity its promotion of common sense

Trust me, mate, I if anyone know where to post topics. I just suck badly at wording myself at times
To start can you post all things you deleted before getting bootloop ? and we can study all to see what can be deleted and what can not be

Regular safe bloat like Sammy crapware, and then all knox related files (I suspect it didn't like me deleting the knox files).

From what I can see, the Polish rom contains three non*Sammy apps: E-Kiosk, Sky Cash and some weird app I can't spell but it begins with an R.

I haven't actually removed them yet, I've frozen them in titanium backup for the time being.
I've reflashed with odin two times so far and will not give it another try just yet.
