        @peter-gamma Its different for XDA: Everybody knows that on XDa the community is a fair mix of official and unofficial stuff, with probably more "home-brew" stuff so people wont blame XDA for a non-working ROM right?

        XDA community is supporting a vast amount of different Android ROMS, and its up to you what you choose. You are responsible all by yourself.

        However, on Ubuntu Touch its a bit different: The community expects basically that whaever we publish is working very well, as our old devices have a good record of being fully usable as daily drivers, at least from the porting point of view. Putting a device into a) devices page, b) installer, c) forum gives it a look of being an officially supported device, and so we want to ensure minimal functionality at last, to not scare away people with semi-finished ports that will never get complete.

        So for a porter the motivation should be: If you try hard to get your device at least working to 90% or so, you can get into the installer. We list you on the devices page with "experimental, wip, community device" mark if you are not quite there.

        But for the forum? Well its a bit difficult, I agree. We could add all devices "just so", without putting any rules. But I really think that would create a ton of subforums with no traffic, until a device gets more popular, and so its really not worth.

        XDA is used by thousands of people daily, we might have a few hundreds. So also from traffic perspecitve I dont think that is really needed.

            @nakele Well its mostly developed by fxtec, not by us. You need to ask them.

                    @bradley said in Wish list for other devices in the device subfolders:

                    Lenovo P11 Pro

                    Why would it need a forum subsection? Is there a port for it, or is one being worked on?

                    Also owns an Op1, a BQ E4.5 and an Xperia X, as well as a BQ tablet and a Pinetab2. Please, someone... make it stop.

                      @bradley @Moem is perfectly correct only ports that are advanced will get there own sub-Forum. From now on anything else will be moved to OT or deleted as with random requests for devices to be ported.

                      Besides this thread. I would suggest that as pretty much happens now when a porter or someone else is happy that a device is ready they can make a request in the porting thread for that device or under a specific manufacturers existing sub-Forum. If @Peter-Gamma is happy with it maybe rename this thread "Requests for a device in the devices subfolder" or such.

                          @ilija_zmaj I have deleted the post, please see my post above. If I have missed anything and there is an advanced port then it can be sorted. Thanks.

                            It looks like some people stop reading after the words "Wish list for other devices"...

                              @moem Yes that seems to be the problem but things can always be removed.

                              @Peter-Gamma I have taken the liberty to rename the thread slightly to try and stop random posts.
