How can we make the XDA forums better?

[sd_shadow]

I changed it:

Nokia X5 (Nokia 5.1 Plus) Guides, News, Discussion

Use this forum to find the best how-to guides for the Nokia X5 and discover the latest news. General discussion also goes here.

forum.xda-developers.com

Its really difficult to search for roms as a new comer. I hope there will be an easer way to search and download roms.

IMHO this forum shouldn't be designed as an easy to access library of ROMs. ROM flashing always entails a risk and requires thorough research to perform properly. I think it's much better that at least a minimum effort of the forum member is required to obtain a ROM.

Howdy! Even though the Peripherals section states "This forum is dedicated to accessories, gaming controllers, microphones, webcams, etc." it doesn't have a topic for gaming controllers, microphones, webcams, etc. Just mechanical keyboards, monitors and mice. Perhaps create a 'Misc'?

我認為這是一個有趣的想法，但沒有什麼比等待期更能讓新用戶感到不安了。2021 年，人們期待即時訪問和快速滿足。如果我們是唯一的手機社區，我會同意你的看法，但如果我是新手並註冊然後有一個等待期，我會說“去他媽的，我的問題很重要。我要去 reddit/AndroidCentral/別的地方”


除非一組開發人員站出來完全接管其開發，否則這種情況不會發生。

ha ha ha what a perfect metaphor
It's like an upset stomach Before rushing into the toilet to solve the problem Also read the terms of use of the toilet first ，This rule is crazy，The purpose of this forum should be the person with the problem Get help to solve problems in the fastest time，Competent developers also get the feedback，the purpose of the forum It is in the communication of the members of the website meet their needs，This era does not even follow the official self-published terms，so.....I agree with what you said:there is an important question Urgent needs to be addressed，waiting period ? **** it!process&specification 。
The fastest way to solve the problem，I think this is the most perfect website experience

There is a page suggestion for a website，Whether it is possible to add text content options in multiple local languages Because I have found on many well-known websites the same word Depending on the region of the user For the same ""Vocabulary & Terminology"grammar,Translations are also different，through the user's device After self-translating into localAfter self-translating into local If the site itself offers language options The content of the article will not appear too much deviation after all...The two sides of the question and answer communicate differently because of the different language and language in the location.As a result, after using the translation software by yourself Causes misunderstandings due to the translated content during communication Therefore, it often occurs in the process of exchange and reply, causing quarrels A lot of it comes from vocabulary,Article content is used differently in different places meaningless communication，texttext There are a lot of strange words in the whole article，Even if they have known each other for a long time,received the same language education Idiomatic syntax expressions are the same It is also often heard that there are different understandings of the content of the response lead to quarrel What's more, users from all over the world use different languages，
Since it emphasizes the improvement of user experience The most intuitive way should be to let website visitors Can clearly understand all the vocabulary in the website，Terminology Is it the same in your place of residence?A very good study book It would have allowed many people to gain knowledge from it，But because the book was sold in the United States Content is published in Chinese So no matter how good the content of the book is Just because the user doesn't understand，No matter how good the article is。
No matter how good the content of the article is, it needs to be read and understood to have a practical effect.Work hard to write and share articles Just because website visitors don't understand This is a waste of the sharer's attention.That's a shame
grateful

I got a notification,Indicates that the content I just replied contains non-English fragments，Did I accidentally edit the content of the discussion thread you posted? That's really embarrassing I didn't mean to sabotage Phone screen interface is too small and I replied with Chrome The extension translates web text Therefore, the error of entraining Chinese letters often occurs I'm really sorry It's just because it's so difficult for me to write just give up Wikipedia Create project this The frame for filling in the text seems to whether with Wikipedia Supported modules are the same? Looks so similar
~~~ WoW~~~~

I'm curious Do you know a little Chinese？Because I saw you sharing the forum's need-to-know specification for the first time Conversation content used presented in Chinese This is my addition to the multi-language option in the site itself outside the English website Seeing that the grammar is the most normal,Text passages are more standard than most people educated in Chinese incredible my big brother

I think something was lost in that translation...

yes! !you are very correct I'm getting sweaty fingers when I fill it out Caused to touch the screen by mistake Then it triggers the text cursor that is being filled to be inserted into other paragraphs So overall it looks like a text narrative with a very strange paragraph structure.

From my point of view, this ^+1. Alternatively, add an English translation to a post in the native language.

Friends of this community forum Truly the most empathetic foreign friend I have ever met,In order to allow the novice who is not good at English to understand the instructions effectively And want to fill in the translated text，The community atmosphere is really great very empathetic Want more people to easily and quickly integrate into the team it's really good Thank you for your understanding and support

i've found it difficult to search only certain specified forums for any given search terms.

if this is an existing feature (and i assume it is somewhere), making it more intuitive and easy to find / use would be great.

Google search: "*search words*, XDA"
Works like magic... put them web crawlers to use.

 

[Mandy.J]

Ha Ha interesting Reply after all Google Ltd, The main business is to search for words keywords Now home page search is no longer limited by the length of words There are now words other than search If the term you want to search for does not touch the recorded results will bring up similar searches Because we don't get paid for the forum just a simple A communication platform for developers Everything is mutual aid of a spontaneous nature go my keywords"search"

For some reason when I browse the forum on mobile it says I am logged out when using the index page or browsing through forums. When I hit the login button I just get an error and am told to refresh the page. This never changes whenever I refresh the page only when I actually look at a threads post does it update saying I am logged in can post and access uac. If I go back to an index page the same thing happens again I can only view the site like I am a guest until I get to a post then it recognizes I'm logged in.

i think a testing/beta tab would be a good edition, like general , question, accessories, testing/beta

so developers can place beta builds for users willing to test before they are released in the development thread as stable

also i know its a little off topic, but i have to agree with the earlier post about elitism , some users can be a little condescending to newcomers asking questions which are typically noobish, we all had to start somewhere and xda is where we they come to do that, i know its beyond your control, and complaining about it wont achieve anything, but ive been around a long time and i still see it happening occasionally, but saying that, for the most part most members are very friendly and helpful

i love this site, keep up the good work

We do have control over condescending people, if you notice any disrespectful posts breaking the forum rules, you can use the report button and the moderation team will handle it.

So you have the control and moderators too.
