Exclamation [READ THIS FIRST] Rules for Development - IRON FIST

Attention devs!

As you probably have experienced first hand, the development forum is getting cluttered with support requests, rom requests, thank you's and whatnot.

Hopefully this will help:

If you create a development thread for your ROM/Kernel/Project/etc, in Infuse Development, also create a Q&A thread on the Q&A forums and link to that Q&A thread in your first post. Also add this, in the same font size and color:

Any questions regarding this ROM/Kernel/Project WILL NOT be answered here. For answers go to: [insert url to Q&A thread here]

Why? Well, if we can manage a development thread to hold ONLY development and technical discussion (as in, bug reports, logs, etc) which will HELP OUT in development, development will be much more efficient and fast.

The Q&A thread will be used for all other discussion.

Simply copy the title of your dev thread to the Q&A forums and add the [Q&A] tag in front of it.

ie: [Q&A][ROM] Neo's Infuse whatever rom 1.0

Exclamation ATTENTION Devs - [TAGS]

As our Development forum grows, I'd like to ask you to use tags on your thread titles, to make it more uniform and clear. Here are the generally used tags mostly used in other development forums.

[ROM]
To indicate that the thread is in fact a rom. This has to be the first Tag for your title.

[OFFICIAL]
To indicate that the rom is from an Official source. Depending on if the rom is an official one or not, this tag has to come in second.

[LANG] (Not required for English ROMS)
Indicate the language of the rom if it is not English, preferably with 2-4 character mentions. If you carry ROMs with multiple language options, please use the tag [MULTILANG]

[REF]
Reference Threads

[REQ]
Requisition Threads

[TUT]
Tutorial Threads



Additional Tags

[GUIDE]

[DUMP]

[PROJECT]

[HOW TO
Will be moved to Q&A since they come more to their right there.

And remember to post the sources of your Kernels...ALWAYS!!!

We thank you for cooperating with us and for all your hard work & continued support of XDA.

Exclamation Rules for Development UPDATED

So, you want to post in development? Ask yourself this:
  • Is what I am going to post a question?
    If so, this is not the right place to post a new thread. Instead, use the SEARCH function to find a thread about your question. If that's not available, post your question in General. (Q&A coming soon!)
  • Am I developing something and want to share it?
    If this is the case, Please do! This is the correct forum and you are free to post your ROM/App/Game/Etc, if it is compliant with the next rule:
  • Is what I am sharing publicly available (free)?
    So, no registration needed to download, but more importantly, no charges. If you want to earn money with a ROM/App/Game/Etc. you can, but also put up a free version. We call paid versions like this: "donation" version.
  • Try to keep the development forum CLEAN! I cannot stress this out more. No offtopic posting and no questions.
  • Use the report button in an offending post to let us mods know we need to take action. (or just PM me. )
  • Did I brush my teeth this morning?
    Seriously, check that.
All posts that are NOT about ROM development, or development in general will be closed or deleted.

This list may get longer as we progress, but for now, happy posting. Oh, and if you find anything abusive or not following the rules, use the report function in the post.

Thanks!
