Xda mobile app ads

I know that the new xda update includes adds and other stuff, there's fine.
I was wondering, if possible can xda make a paid app without ads? I would defiantly buy it. It would be nice and xda be making money too.
Please post here if you would like that and maybe we could get one.

hey dude every time i try to log on to the APP it tells me " need administrators permission to login...? " what do i have to do?

We added an ad so that we can continue to provide the app free. Surprisingly, we have gotten a lot of messages from people willing to pay to remove the ad. So, we are considering this, perhaps with a premium version that also adds new features.
Thanks for your input!

the nexus one?

We're working on an update that should fix some of the issues with 1.3.1. In the mean time, try reinstalling, or rebooting your device. It works fine on my Nexus One with 2.2.1.

I agree with the no ad concept for a fee.
We are constantly bombarded with ads daily from every other medium so when I see ads, I uninstall.
In this case, XDA remains on my device because this is the best forum on the net, period.

it still asked me to ask taptalk admin to let me etc

I've been searching for a thread to report or compare bugs in the app. Is there one?
good day.

Didn't know ads bother people so much. Games I know, but these ads are not bothersome at all.
Hypothethical question for the devs which would make you more money someone with who buys a $2 app or someone using an ad supported app. Just wondering

I would definitely buy it. The last thing I want to worry about is hitting the next page button and getting a 9.99 jamster charge on my bill because the ad captured my mobile number because of the app permissions or something like that. Thanks for the great app though

My carrier disabled third party billing to my account, but I think XDA uses a reputable source for the ads in the app (likely admob or google), who wouldn't allow someone to billl you $10 through merely clicking an ad.
But I'm sure Svetius can clarify which service generates the ads, and while it pays to be cautious, I reckon you're unlikely to get something like that as an app advert (though I am sure someone will try it some day...)

Very helpfull.."found it"...
I can't find the thread - could someone give me a link?
I have no access to a PC at the moment and it's very hard to search with the xda-app through all (sub-) forums by hand and also the results in the search-feature for "xda app" gives me, let me say, a "few" hits more back...
BackToTopic:
+1 - Would also pay for no ads!

Wow, Nothing like jumping to conclusions... The guy just asked if there was a problem with 4shared, Not if he could go and get paid apps for free!!!
I use 4shared for storage reasons are the forum police gonna jump on me???

Running AOKP Jellybean on my S3, youtube/flash is not working

I am unable to view YouTube videos and some flash sites. I tried installing flash player 11. It said not compatible with my device. Now I cannot even find flash player in play store. Please suggest some fixes.

There are no suggestions... Flash is discontinued in Android 4.1

even thought flash player isnt officially supported some users can get it to work by side loading the apk

I never will understand why people get upset so much when a questioned is asked more then once. Sure it is annoying but is it really that serious to flame people? Is xda paying you to flame n00bs or flame period?

I did try that method. Unfortunately it did not work. I may have to change ROMs.

I thought that the aokp devas said that video playback was an issue

Yes, there is no. Video Playback. There is sound when I play a YouTube video.

Also having problems playing YouTube video clips. Plays them when using my wifi connection but won't when using Vodafone H+/3G connection even though it is loading Facebook and browser pages?
Currently using Omega V26 but was the same when using Cyanogenmod 9?

TomTom

tomtom isn't officially supported for our sgs3 but I have tried it and works very well. I don't know why we can't find it on market

I don´t see any link to warez. He is just asking why its not on market so where is the reason for a ban?

it's not on the market for our device, cause TT is too stupid to put it for our device!!!

I can say, tomtom is a really crappy app on android, you get in your gallary all that pictures from tomtom... cars, maps, etc... the app itself is really slow, lags, crashes, and have a very ugly design...
Only tomtom maps, are really good, but anyway, try copilot, and you will see how a good app must be... its far far far better...
Cheers

Take a look to Sygic...

Its a paid for app any attempt at getting such free is Warez and that was the impression given by search the web .Instead of go to TT site pay for it and download it .
As its not a blatant Warez post in this case i have not reported .
6. Do not post warez.
If a piece of software requires you to pay to use it, then pay for it. We do not accept warez nor do we permit any member to promote or describe ways in which Warez, cracks, serial codes or other means of avoiding payment, can be obtained.

ART

Who runs it on their m8? Sense or gpe

Lots of people on the VZW M8 on CleanROM. So - what's your question?

In my opinion ART is better but unfortunately the xposed doesn't work on ART.

There was no attitude in my answer. As your OP isn't particularly descriptive I was assuming you wanted a basic answer. If you want more information it might be worth adding more to the OP. That way hopefully you'll get the info you're after

Please stop with off topic. You have comments there is pm thanks
