Odd order of phone forums in browser

Don't know whether this is just me, but when I look at the forum on my laptop I find that some of the phone forums seem to be listed "out of order":

The "One" was originally the "M7", so maybe that might explain it appearing between the Leo and the Magic, but it's confusing. And the X's coming before the V's?

It is not just you, that is how it appears for everyone.
I for one actually really enjoy the fact that it is currently out of alpha-order. It makes the newer and more relevant device (my opinion) easier for me to see in the list and simpler to accurately 'tap' while on my mobile.

I wanted to believe that it was a conscious design decision :p, however, now that you remind that it was priorly listed under the M7 name that probably explains what I find to be a convenience actually a bit of an oversight.

You've crushed my reality ;)
 
It is supposed to me alphabetical, but as it is all ordered manually and some device names are changed later down the line, so there are quite a few quirks in there :p
 
Yeah, figured.

I only noticed because each time I looked for the HTC One forum I found I had to hunt for it because it's in the wrong place :)
 
It is a mess and would be quite the undertaking to reorder, honestly. Though, I would like for it to be right..

that said, I always just cntl + F when I want to get somewhere on our home page :P

Is there a reason we don't use the automatic ordering? Would something else break if we turned it on?
 
He's got a Desire.

Heaven only knows what that Desire is, but he's got one. :D
I had to explain that to the wife a while back - she wanted to copy something via bluetooth, looked for available devices and suddenly I'm asked: "What's your 'Desire'?".

No, honestly dear, HTC chose the name, not me....
 
Ooooooh, Booooooo! :D (clearly just kidding around here)

The HTC One (formerly M7) was finally re-alphabetized correctly.
I was looking for it above the HTC Magic, as usual, and it was gone!
