how to post new threads

[explorer fred]

Hi! After a long frustrating search I accidentally found the "post new thread" button. What's the best way for me to post new threads (ask a new question), no matter where I am on this site. I'm grateful for this forum, but not all of us are geniuses here. Thanks!

Hello

If its a general question that doesn't fit a specific category then it gets posted here in the General Help & How To forums.

Otherwise of your question is related to a specific device then choice the sub forum to match and post your question there.

Finding your device is easy to. From any page on the forums near the top header area you will find two search bars.
1. For general search in the forums
2. Search your device /carrier

Either one you start typing and in real time it will start to pull up matches to your entry as you type

Just make sure to post in the right subforum. Best place for a question like this would be Site Questions and Announcements.

What type of data are you referring too? Contacts should be accessible online if you had the option sync'd on the device. You can also restore the contacts once you sign back into the device with your account and check sync in the account settings of the device. Text messages or app data would not be saved unless you had this information backed-up with other services or apps.

Me neither. It was there until I subscribed and bam, gone.
Sorry no help.

Welcome to Android Central! Are you on the website, the Android Central app (the one that also has news), or the Tapatalk-based Android Central Forums app?

If on the website, go to the forum where you want to post, and click the big blue "Post New Thread" button right under the forum title.

If on the AC app, go to the forum where you want to post, and tap the speech bubble icon with the + sign in it at the top of the screen.

Thank you B. Diddy. Sorry for the mean tone in my post, all the contacts on my phone got unsynced and it was just a terrible mess.

 

[B. Diddy]

No problem. My advice would be to try keeping all of your contacts in Google, so that they're constantly synced between your phone and the Google cloud. Don't enter any contacts into the Phone Account.
