Hello everyone,
I've been lurking around from time to time for a while now but I've decided earlier this year to keep as much distance as I can from Google services on my phone. That's why I switched to Lineage and I'm following my phone thread here.
Have a nice day,
Sekhmet

Samsung Galaxy J7 (2017)
Hi. My mobile is Samsung Galaxy J7 nxt. I have installed a custom rom. But now I am now on my stock rom. But some of the features of custom rom are still in my mobile like volte not working, lock screen stories not available. So please can you tell me how can I go to my pure stock rom.

Hey everyone! I'm fairly new to all of this but I had some success years ago rooting my HTC phone and I am now wondering if it's possible to root my SM-981U snapdragon galaxy note 20 5G. I know I will learn a lot here so thanks so much for having me! Any advice would be greatly appreciated but I will be scouring the forums first! Have a great day!

Howdy all
I'm an Android dev, finally joining after years of lurking.
Most recently parted with my v30, for the free-to-me Revvl 5G (TCL 10 5G Tmo variant).

    Hello guys. My name is hassan. I'm from Seattle,WA. I'm 32 years old originally from Somalia, both parents are Somalis. I'm saying hey to all of you guys and God bless you guys.

    HI you guys are awesome

    Well hi all, I'm 'new', but not really that new, since I've been searching through XDA topics on many occasions for quite a few years now. Not sure why it took me so long to actually make an account, but here I am.
    So about me - half geek, half creative, F/LOSS enthusiast for over 20 years, full time Linux user since 2006, interested in way to many subjects to ever become a specialist in any of them within at least a dozen of life spans. Hence I don't think I'll ever be able to call myself a developer, but hey, we'll see ;-)

    More than anything, XDA is a community, and we're all here for different reasons.

    Some are here to mod their phone--some joined just to ask a question. Or perhaps, like many, you joined so long ago, you have no idea why you're here (which is totally fine! we've been around for almost a decade). :cool: And we're in the process of making XDA more useful to everyone here now that we've moved to much better forum software.

    But we'd love to know your XDA story: why are you here, and who are you? What's your day job, what phones do you have, where do you live, what do you like to do for fun? We'd love to get to know you!

    Also, be sure to spend some time filling out your profile:


    And also adding what phones you have to your inventory:


    :cowboy: thanks and welcome. I'm one of the guys in charge and my DMs are always open if you ever want to chat or even complain.

    Go ahead and make a new thread in this forum instead of replying to this post.

    Hello everyone, i'm back here after a long, long time

    I used to read alot here when i was 10 - 15 but I think i switched to iOs during 2010s and i never really had my phone in the center of my occupations so i bought some macbook & iphone and i started to learn code. (mostly js)

    I would be really happy to help users here, if i can, and discuss about my new device. ;) 2020s seems to be redditable as **** tbh, the xda lost kid became some kind of creative dev who's going back to the r00t

    Thank you for everything I have read here over the last years!

    Hi. I'm a french CS engineer and a Debian addict.

    I systematically root all my phones and have a specialization in tuning the iptables to not talk to the GAFAMs. Rooted phones so far : Huawei codenames HAM, NEML51, old samsung phones, a couple of Wiko phones.

    I've been following XDA-developers for a decade and decide now to onboard :
    * Short-term goal : get some help on a very edge case involving dm-verity and kali nethunter on Nexus5X (bullhead)
    * Long-term goal : wait patiently for the day when a full debian phone / ubuntu touch will be available at a relatively low price, and help all along
