[Q] XDA app

Has anyone been experiencing any FC's on the XDA app when attempting to access the settings section?

I haven't. I'm using the new paid version tho so I'm not sure.
You can always try clearing data or a fresh install.

I think it was 99 cents... not a huge difference, but it's ad-free, different layout options and it supports the site...so well worth it IMO.

I'm sorry man.. that sucks. Wish I could help.

Actually, the free XDA-Developers app is no longer on the market. I went and saw there was an update for it and I went to update it and it said the item couldn't be found. :|

Mine when open the app after still on the background sometime so didn't connect to the servers, press back button and FC, every time that happens.

I had some FC'S on mine as well and for some reason I had to do a cache/dalvik cache clean via recovery and that worked for me...not sure if that would do it for everyone or if you would even need to go that far but it fixed mine...

yea same thing here makes it impossible to search for things when on the go

They removed the free one from the market and for some reason that's when I started to get FC and when I removed it and tried to reinstall it that's when I realized that it was not in the market anymore I got the paid version cause it was only $.99 but it was kinda odd that it started to happen when they removed the free version.

Yeah, ran into this today. Been using the blue flashable xda for a long time. Today, it somehow auto updated. I hate the brown, but do wanna support xda. I saw comments in market saying the new version diesnt seem to remember 'last read'. And that that color picks in settings doesn't work.
Any chance of a blue themed version coming. ?

Ok. So I went to manage apps, uninstall updates. Uninstalled update on xda. Got my blue xda back, but icon was still diarrhea brown (fugly), was frustrated. But, just rebooted and all is back to blue. Sure hope someone will work on this.
Thanks in advance to jchisurf, riptide, stoney, aamikam, etc

pretty lame that the XDA free app is no longer available........I wenth ahead and forked over the .99 cents to purchase it...........but it would never install, so just before the 15 minutes elapsed, I did the "refund"...........pretty lame indeed............come on XDA, bring the free app back.

I saw there was an update and tried to update and the item wasn't found, but then I did a long hold on the app in "my apps" and there was an update option. That worked to update mine. No FCs so far!
I did have to re-select my subscribed threads. But the app now tells you if people are online!

Favorites are listed in both the premium and free version of the XDA App, but no forum posts, listings, or content when a favorite is selected. Please fix.

Same issues, no posts and wouldn't load unless uninstalled through settings-applications. Then reinstalled and it works, pain to have to readd favorites though.

Is there somewhere we can adjust the color scheme? The light blue on white is do hard to see.

The new update to the premium app is terrible. It's so bad I reverted to a copy of the free app even though I paid for (and prefer) the premium one. It's not right that they just leave it like that.

What's so bad about it?

The only problem I really have with the update is that now, pictures aren't displayed full-screen. It was annoying before when a resized picture would be really blurry, but now I can't see any pictures, and that's much more irritating. They're way too small now. It's just a thumbnail, basically, and it makes screenshot threads completely infuriating.
Oh, another thing, with the notifications for subscribed threads, it will only notify me after the first check, and not on subsequent checks, if it's making subsequent checks. For instance, say I get a notification that 2 subscribed threads are updated. The notification will say that there are 2 subscribed threads. Now, say it's 30 minutes later (or more; I just used 30 since that's how often I set the app to check) and there are 2 more subscribed threads. Instead of updating the notification to 4 updated threads, it still says 2 even though I never cleared it the first time. For a real-world example, I went to bed yesterday and woke up with a notification for 2 updated threads, but when I opened the app, there were 6 or 7 updated threads. These were all updated within a period of 12 hours, and my XDA app is set to check every 30 minutes. For some reason, after the initial check where it found the updates, it never checked again, or if it did check, it didn't update the notification.
I hope this is a clear enough description. It sounds kind of confusing to me, but I can't think of a better way to explain it.

I was getting nothing but empty screens in every section, not just the favorites section. It took three uninstall/reinstall cycles to get it functioning again. It still doesn't show favorites but I can live with that (for awhile) but the whole empty app thing was disaapointing

Also had problems with blank screens in favorites and couldn't add a xda premium app shortcut to my home screen anymore.
After a long press on the home screen and selecting it from the shortcut list I got a white screen.
After uninstalling and re-installing it still won't generate a shortcut, but launch the app instead when going through the steps above.
The only way to add it as a shortcut was to long press it from the app drawer.

Delete reinstall works great.

Please fix premium app!!!! Cant open app from app drawer! Favorites won't stick...
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA Premium App

+1 on the favorites issue after update. I delete and readd them then old ones sometimes reappear, requiring another removal, but without fail the newly added favorites will always show empty subforums at some point.
Keep having to revert to an old backup of XDA app if I "update all" from the market.

Same issue here with the favourite forums being empty. Can't even delete them. Well, you can, but they come back when you refresh. I deleted them and re-added them and it worked, but after a restart I was back to blank favourite forums again.
PLEASE, if the devs see this, let us know what's gonna happen.
Thanks

New market update

http://www.engadget.com/2011/07/12/google-updating-android-market-app-on-phones-adding-movies-and/
New market update confirmed and coming soon according to Google. I think it looks pretty awesome. People are already yelling about the WP7 comparisons, but I think its pretty slick.

I think it looks quite smart. Bring it on

yup its very pretty, so us rooted users wont be able to rent movies?

Here's the new update.. ....courtesy of loxdev.
Installed it on CM7without problems...

Mine was choppy and didn't display images till i rebooted. then it worked just fine.
also if you're rooted you can try to wipe market data in titanium backup and reboot. or wipe cache and reboot and try that.

Works pretty dam good on non-rooted stock.
Video is nice and smooth. Couldn't really tell I was streaming on mobile data. (Which was probably 4g)

dang! Im running the pyro rom but cant get this to install. it just says "Application not installed" anyone has any ideas how to fix this?

Anyone having issues updating apps? I've had 2 apps now show up in the 'update' heading, but when u click thru to the app the top dialogue boxes are 'open' and 'uninstall', as if that page doesn't recognize that there's an update.
Once 2 apps were available for updating, the "update 2" button comes up and it allows me to hit it. 1 of the 2 updated. the other still won't. Tried wiping Market data and rebooting, no luck. bleh.
UPDATE: Well after doing several reboots and etc. etc., I just simply went back to the file (From this thread) and re-installed the market again. Now the 'update' button shows up! Not sure what I did but it works now.

I did it and it works perfectly.

That launcher is horrible. But I guess for the sake of free - might as well.

Just tried it. Got it Activated . Lol tbh its seems mediocre. Oh well its free. Thanks for the post.

Activated it but it still says lite version... Hope we can get updates.
Anyway thanks, I think its nice launcher.

As asked before, is this a trial or something? Why is it free today? Does the dev know about this, or is this some loophole bug that was found? Kinda seems suspicious...
EDIT: Didn't read the whole post I guess. The code is "appoftheday" so that seems a little less suspicious lol.

It won't show purchased on Google play. You have to do a backup of the apk.

Next Launcher 3D FULL FREE LIMITED TIME

This exists in a few other device forums. Incase you guys didnt see it: http://www.droid-life.com/2013/06/0...uncher-3d-app-for-free-today-with-this-trick/
Thanks to Slick Deals and Droid-Life!!
First install the ”lite” version from Google Play, then once you have it installed and running as your current launcher, go into the Menu (the furthest right icon in the dock, 3 vertical dots) and go into Preferences. Go into “About the Full Version”, then choose “Activate” button (it may appear grayed out but just press it) and enter: “nextlauncher3d” as the account and “appoftheday” as the code. Enjoy.

Thanks for the heads up but damn I just tried it out and there is just way to much stuff going on for my tastes haha

I would really love this launcher, if I were about 10 years old

I tried it for about 10 minutes, then deleted it. Thankfully the curiosity to kill the cat was free, and not $16
