I used to have my xda account set up so that when somebody replied,quoted or thanked me i would received an email,but i don't get them anymore because i probably changed something unknowingly.
Does anybody know how to set up the right settings for that?
Thanks in advance.
Anyone?

Ok i turned on the settings that should have enabled email notifications but still no notifications.
What setting turns them on?
I thought that i would get more help than this on here.
Are you talking about when you subscribe to a thread and what not?
If so, it is in settings>notifications. Cant remember the exact buttons to look for, but it is in there.

Please don't be a Debbie-Downer. It is kind of a turn-off when people see your request and then see you complaining about not getting help (especially when others have already tried to help). Rather than complain make a new post or ask again. Sometimes it doesn't hurt to be patient. Lol I have a question out there that hasn't been answered in months (granted I found my answer another way)! Sometimes people don't know the answer or assume that it's already been answered when they see multiple replies.
As to answering your question... Setting up notifications didn't work for me in either the XDA app or in Tapatalk. In order to set them up I had to go to the actual website. I'm using the XDA 2013 Beta so my instructions will be for XDA 2013 Beta.
If you'd like to switch to XDA 2013 Beta go to the very bottom left of your screen. There is a dropdown box, click it and select "XDA 2013 Beta".
Now on to the rest.
In the top right corner or your screen select the "Control Panel" (directly below your username).
On the left side of your screen you should see a gray box that says "Settings and Options". Below that is a menu option titled "Edit Options". Select it.
Once you're in the "Edit Options" section scroll down past the first little section and you'll see the section "Messaging and Notifications". You will see many sub-options, almost all relate to different email/messaging options. Play around with the ones you want and presto! You are good to go!

I already did that,i tried all settings in "Messaging and Notifications" before asking this question.And im on Beta 2013.Still no notifications.
I have an account on Phandroid.com and every time someone replies,thanks me or comments i get an email.
I think i had that on XDA before but not any more,it would be great if i could get it on here.
Does anyone actually receive emails for replies on xda or xda don't have this option?

K. That's something else entirely. When you subscribe to a thread it gives you the option to be notified. There are several options in the dropdown list, I normally do immediately for the important threads. I get emails all the time.
There isn't currently a system that notifies you when someone quotes you or thanks you though.
Good luck!

Hi guys I'm still quite new to the forums and have just purchased the XDA premium app for android but I cant seem to find how to favourite a thread so it will show in the favourites tab. all helps appreciated thanks!
It's cool man - find the topic you like, press and hold on it then choose subscribe. It'll then show up under favorites. I believe you have to from the list of topics though, not while you're actually viewing it. Hope this helps!

That is quiet not user friendly, since we have "subscribe" to receive email notifications for new replies...
Talking about confusing, eh?
yes, poorly implemented.
With such a large forum I thought favorites would be helpful to shortcut to the sub-forums I read.
subscribe to make a favorite. to me that implies I would get alerts for all new posts which I don't want. we'll see.

You can shortcut the forums you'd like.
Simply long press on it and a Create Shortcut option is the bottom option.
Also, no you won't get alerts for all new posts. The only way you get alerted for new posts, is if you subscribe to a single thread and change the option to get notified.

On the xda android app there's a "participated" unread posts tab so that I can see all of the new posts in threads I've posted in but I can't find that here on the desktop version, just the "new posts" thing at the top which shows ALL new posts, even ones I haven't posted in. Am I missing this somewhere? (btw on 2010 theme, I really don't like the 2013)

If you use the XDA android app, in the "unread" button there's a "participated" and it shows every thread that someone has posted in that you have not read that YOU have at one time posted in.
On your computer I cannot find this option, only the "new post" button at the top that shows EVERY new post, even if you have never posted in that thread.
It seemed odd that the android app would have a feature the regular computer browser version doesn't, so I figured I must just be stupid and cannot find it.
Ideas?

I'm confused. Maybe it's because my settings are set to auto-subscribe me to any thread I post in? That's the way it was when I signed up and the way it's been on every forum I've been a part of. Clicking UserCP at the top (2010 theme) takes me to a listing of all the threads I've participated in & am subscribed to & have unread replies. They're shown in bold and ordered by which has the latest reply.

I see, well I didn't realize that I had to be subscribed for that.
I just did a "no emal" subscribe, so that should start showing up for me too.
Thanks.
I think a good addition might be to just add a "participated new post" button like they have in the tapatalk xda app
Yeah, that was definitely it. I guess the app somehow can keep thread subscriptions ("participated") without the website actually keeping them. That's weird. That's why I was always wondering, why is there a participated tab and a favorite threads tab? Because in the app I use Favorites -> Threads; it's the equivalent of UserCP.

Sounds like it. Apparently you don't have to be "subscribed" to it for the app to show it but on the PC you do.
Anyways it works now because I just tried it and this thread showed up with your unread post for me. Cheers.

This is ridiculous. Not everyone is an expert in this phone. Get over yourself, and try being helpful instead of just an overall prick.
I get the idea of telling people to search, and that is totally understandable, but responses like this really piss me off. You were a "noob" once too.
OP, this icon indicates NFC is turned on in the software (Near Field Communications) as already indicated by scmlee.
To be more helpful than the post I quoted, you can take a screenshot with the Note 2 much easier than how you did it. Check out this video to how to do screenshots.

Perhaps. But guiding people, who managed to find their way to xda, to try and do some research on their own first, like searching or reading thread titles, empowers them to be stronger users. And it cuts back on the 20+ threads with the exact same topic and title.

It's called a statusbar. Taskbars are for Windows.
I kind of have to defend the OP here, as I had the very same question when I got the AT&T variant of the Note2. I'm hardly a newbie, but I've generally avoided the US variants of these phones (and that icon doesn't appear on any of the international firmware releases that I've seen.)
As for searching, what search term would you suggest? Without knowing that it relates to "NFC", there really aren't any good keywords to use that would narrow down the search. The message subject ("weird icon in the upper task bar") doesn't generate anything useful (other than this thread which didn't exist when the OP was made.)
If you get REALLY lucky, you might get just the right combination of keywords to hit a previous thread. For example, "strange icon notification" will hit the Q&A thread I made almost 2 months ago.)
About the ONLY thing I can fault the OP for is that this should have been posted in the device Q&A (and not the device General) section. That, however, is a pretty typical mistake and I've even been guilty of it on occasion.
Take care

it's kinda rude, saying that XDA is doing it for bucks,
since they did this to provide users an independent forum app,
you justified the means without proper knowledge,
And to put it, Tapatalk is a paid app. And XDA offers free as well as premium app. So users who don't have Tapatalk has the option to get the free XDA app, if they have only registered on XDA for browsing the forums. Not many users are members of different forums.
i got both...but to be honest i only use XDA app now as this is the only forum i check. and if by me having the premium version helps support for the maintenance of the site, it is the least i can do for what i have learned from XDA over the last two years and the goodies that i have done to my phone to make it better
The reason? I find 1.50 € for learning english a very, very, fair price (i have both premium apps)

Reread your thread title and OP. Nowhere does it state that it's directed to people who use multiple forums, and you probably would have received different replies completely if you had made that clear. All you did was make the XDA app seem useless, which is wrong, because for people who only use XDA there's no point paying for tapatalk.

Personally, I don't see any difference between the two. They are identical to me, except that Tap can have multiple forums in it, obviously.
But I am having a problem with both and can't use any of the four forum apps I have purchased:
XDA Premium (phone)
XDA HD (tablet)
TapaTalk HD
TapaTalk 2
Don't get me wrong, I am more than happy to support the developers! I'm not bragging, but I have purchased about 300 apps in the last year and most of them worked fine without paying for them. I just wanted to make clear that this is not about complaining because of spending the money. I just sincerely want to be able to use them and I can't use any of the four.
What I mean by that, is that after scouring XDA and Google, I cannot find any help on how to view messages that I have received email notifications for, like when someone responds directly to one of your posts, or even when they post in a thread/forum you are Subscribed to.
I know that I can go into the XDA/TapaTalk (2) apps and go to:
LATEST >> PARTICIPATED
... But that doesn't take me to the posts that I have been notified about, like if I tap the link in the email and it takes me right to the message, ya know?
So I end up tapping the link and trying to view the messages in the browser on my phone, but since XDA does not have a mobile version of their web site, I end up double-tapping it to try to blow it up and then moving it all around the screen, back and forth, to try to read the message.
And of course, posting that way is Hell! It is very difficult to get it to go back up in the message and you can't even see a whole sentence, because it's blown up and the regular display is microscopic!
Does anyonne know how it is done? I love the concept of these apps, but I cannot believe that they would have left that sort of feature out, given that people would constantly be responding to posts they are notified about, right?
So I figure that I must be missing something. But I have looked at these apps for almost a year now (and recently purchased the new TapaTalk 2, hoping it had stuff the original doesn't) and I just can't find how to do this.
Does anyone know how this is done? Please?
Again, going to LATEST >> PARTICIPATED does not list/take me to the messages I am being notified about. The threads are in the list somewhere, I'm sure, but I'm hoping to do it like I do when I tap on the link in an email message. It would be really cool if you tapped on one and it opened Tap right to that specific message that you're being notified about!
I may have missed this answer somewhere in these forums, but I swear, I did scour them as best I could and I just cannot find this specific help! Nor did I find any help from the Tap folks, except how a forum owner could add their forum and a Google search produced the same result.
I apologize for the long message. I just wanted to make sure that I was absolutely clear, so that folks did not just guide me to "LATEST >> PARTICIPATED".
Thanks!!!

Does anyonne know how it is done? I love the concept of these apps, but I cannot believe that they would have left that sort of feature out, given that people would constantly be responding to posts they are notified about, right?
So I figure that I must be missing something. But I have looked at these apps for almost a year now (and recently purchased the new TapaTalk 2, hoping it had stuff the original doesn't) and I just can't find how to do this.
Does anyone know how this is done? Please?
Again, going to LATEST >> PARTICIPATED does not list/take me to the messages I am being notified about. The threads are in the list somewhere, I'm sure, but I'm hoping to do it like I do when I tap on the link in an email message. It would be really cool if you tapped on one and it opened Tap right to that specific message that you're being notified about!
I may have missed this answer somewhere in these forums, but I swear, I did scour them as best I could and I just cannot find this specific help! Nor did I find any help from the Tap folks, except how a forum owner could add their forum and a Google search produced the same result.
I apologize for the long message. I just wanted to make sure that I was absolutely clear, so that folks did not just guide me to "LATEST >> PARTICIPATED".
Thanks!!!

Big post.
So basically what you want is when you click on a link on any other app (mail for eg. since its giving you notifications). You need to clear all the defaults you have set around with your browsers. (do it from settings»applications»manage»here).
After that whenever you click on a link, it will show up a popup to chose the app to procede for the link. If the link is from xda use tapatalk (it'll take you to the post right away), if from other site, use your preffered browser. Again do not set anything as default as tapatalk cannot open other sites and you will need to clear the defaults again.

Dear Bruce Wayne,
Okay, I did what you said and it did not take me to the exact message. But it did take me to the same page, which makes it just a matter of scrolling down a few swipes up worth to scroll down to the message, which is certainly plenty good enough!
Plus, now I understand why this app's default posts per page is set to 10.
Thanks a bunch for your help, Bruce! I mean that! I can now, finally, use TapaTalk after a year of owning it! And that's because you took a few minutes out of your time to answer my question simply and plainly, without first assuming a certain level of knowledge on my part and I really appreciate that!
And I'm sincerely not trying to patronize you. As I said, I do mean that. It can be very difficult to get help, when so many people see a question as being "stupid" and you can't find anything on the web, ya know?
There was one thing I noticed though in the TapaTalk 2 app, which was that there was no option to "Quote" when responding (I wanted to quote a couple of sentences of you response when I replied).
Is there a trick to making it show that option that you know of?
If there isn't one, how would you know if it's responding to the message you're looking at on the screen?
Sorry to bother you again, Bruce! Last time, I promise!

How do I stop getting junk mail from this site every day?
Step by Step instructions please. I've looked in all the settings and can't find a way to do it.

There's not a Unsubscription link at bottom of the email?

I don't normally open unsolicited emails. It's just common sense security practice. You should always be able to unsubscribe from any marketing emails right in the user control panel.
After reading your reply I opened one and didn't see anything. So then I went ahead and unblocked remote content (another anti-security action) and still didn't see anything. After looking over the entire email several times I did finally find it. Here's a screenshot of the actual Unsubscribe link. Do you see it?
I really want an answer, can you see it? That's an unedited screen capture using the built in windows snipping tool. It shows a really unethical tactic in use by this website
