Everyone has their own story of how they found their way onto the XDA-Developers Forums.
Most of you probably found the XDA Forums when looking up how to unlock your bootloader, root your phone, and/or flash a custom ROM or kernel. We have forums for a huge variety of devices from many different manufacturers (and we’re always expanding, too!) While newer versions of Android have reduced the draw towards tinkering with custom software on your phone, development is still going strong on our forums with a wide variety of guides, mods, kernels, ROMs, apps, and more being published by users like you.
But it costs money to run a forum, provide free hosting for files, and add new features for developers and users alike. That’s why use a variety of ad formats to monetize the site, but we know many of you don’t like ads, so we introduced XDA Ad-Free so you can skip the ads while still showing your support for XDA. Using adblock is always your right as an internet citizen, but it doesn’t help us in any way.
Now, we have another way for you to support XDA: by sending us a tip. And if your tip leads to us publishing an article on the XDA-Developers News Portal, you’ll get a month of …
Send us a Tip and Get 1 Month XDA Ad-Free
While we would love to be omnipotent and know everything that’s going on in the world of Android, it’s simply impossible for the XDA Portal Team to know every little detail. We have our own sources and tools we refer to so we can stay on top of things, but there are some things that we need the eyes and ears of users like you to uncover.
Things like OTA updates for some phones, Google application server-side updates bringing new features, or something else you’ve noticed that you think deserves immediate attention are difficult for us to independently discover because we simply don’t have every single device in every single region nor do we have enough devices to ensure that we’ll always be part of a software update roll out.
We now have a proper tip submission form so that you can help us be aware of such changes, features, or findings.
If you click the above link, you’ll be taken to our new tip page where you can access the contact form to send us correspondence, whether with a username attached or anonymously, with information you think is newsworthy. If your contribution catches our attention and we publish an article (which are typically >300 words in length, and not the short links to our forum that you occasionally see), then we’ll gift a month of Ad-Free to your XDA account.
Please note that what we consider newsworthy is ultimately up to the XDA Portal Editorial Team, so it’s possible your tip may not result in a published article. In general, if you are sending one of the following category of tips, you are more likely to see an article get published and thus receive a month of Ad-Free for your contribution:
We appreciate any help we can get to expand the coverage on the XDA Portal (but please don’t bog down the tip line by sending us technical support questions or requests for a ROM/kernel!) Sending us a news tip is just one way you can contribute to XDA, and for your contribution we are offering a month of XDA Ad-Free as a reward.
Just make sure you spell your XDA Forum username correctly in the form (if you choose not to submit anonymously), or we can’t properly credit you for your tip!
