I tried to surf this website on my browser on the mytouch 3g and realized that it is a pain the the @$$ to surf. I was wondering if there can be a mobile site.
- You can easily log into your account to access User CP and check your messages.
-Search for Threads and/or Add New Threads feature
-You can pick between Mobile or Desktop View
Also there are some other things that I feel could be better.
-When someone quotes you, you can get an email notification telling you. This way people don't have to subscribe to every thread they put a post to see if people respond to your post.
-A Google Chrome Plug-In like you can see your Account Status easier or search for forums from the URL Bar.
If anyone else has any issues that they want to be fixed please post them I'm pretty sure a Mod or Admin is going to see this thread.
I'm not sure if this has been proposed before but if it has please direct me to the thread and/or lock this thread. I really don't want to be banned or suspended. I searched but could find anything.
This probably would have been best to post in the sticky called (requests) From the Users to the Mods & Admins. However, I at least have an answer one of your questions, the mobile site one. Somebody on the boards (ktemkin) made a mobile site for XDA-Developers, which is can be accessed by going to http://xda-developers.mobi. It's not the prettiest site and it doesn't have full functionality, but it gets the job done better than any other solution out there at the moment. Hope that helps
Did not know about this. Like u said it's not pretty, but it's the best we have right now.
But vBulletin comes with built-in pda display -- no one ever sees this because it's obscure in the top-left menu on the homepage:
PDA layout

meh, that's just the standard Vbulletin Archive View, branded as a PDA layout. It's better than the standard view when on a mobile browser, but xda-developers.mobi renders things much better IMO. View the forum with your Hero's browser using each one, and I'm pretty sure you'll prefer xda-developers.mobi over the archive view. As I said, neither are perfect solutions, and a dedicated client (like the now halted XDApp) would be best, but both can get the job done to a degree.

The forums are dynamic. They adjust to the size of device you are using. Just browse to the regular URL and it will adjust accordingly.

Hi,
Here I show you how to create custom local homepage for the stock web browser.
So, basically, when you start the web browser, it will load this custom web page.
This is very useful, for example: You can create quick shortcuts for all your frequent visit of websites.
(1) Download the attached "bookmark.zip" and put it in the a folder, for example \Download
(2) Extract the content, for example in \Download\bookmark
After this second step, you can access \Download\bookmark\bookmark.html
(3) Open the stock web browser, go to:
Settings --> General --> Set homepage
(4) Choose "Other"
(5) Set to:
file:///sdcard/Download/bookmark/bookmark.html
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
There you go!
You can modify the bookmark.html as you pleased.
bookmark.zip has been updated.
Disable page zoom added:
Remove the "initial-scale=1" in the bookmark.html as shown here:
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, maximum-scale=1, user-scalable=0"/>
There is already a most visited sites option in the browser so I'm not too sure why I would want to do this?
Admittedly this isn't really needed, but is quite cool. I've just started learning html/css. So I will have a play with it later.

Because this is the fastest way to get all your favorite websites!
Start the web browser and it is all there, right in front of you ... With all the thumbnails, ready to visit
There, two clicks you got the page.
Even better, when you go back by clicking the back button, you will see all those shortcuts again
Efficient ... Fast ...
And ... You can customize the way you want!
On the other hand, your way is too slow.
You need to start the browser, long click the back button, click the most visited, and you might need to scroll ...

Incorrect. There is a 'most visited sites' homepage you can assign in the settings. Plus if you want to talk about efficiency for certain sites why don't you just add a bookmark widget to the desktop?
i will try this.thank you
Right, you right about that most visited as homepage ...
But, the order can change at any time depending on your frequent visit. Also, I dont like the white background that consume more battery power.
With my way, I can have fixed loaction of thumbnails which for sure easier to navigate.
And because of that, we can have flexibility to arrange the thumbnails the way we want
Bookmark widget ... problem is that I must swipe to that home, and I dont like to clutter my launcher! Dont forget that widget consume more memory and might slow down your launcher if redraw is required!
So, still, my solution is better, faster, more flexible

Alright you win . Have you tried allowing the table to use 100% instead of defining the number of pixels?

Hi,
See the attached screenshot.
Do you know how to format the <table> or use CSS so it will utilize the whole screen?
I set the <table> width to 720px but that does not help.
So, please please please ... if you are HTML/CSS expert ... help us!
Thank you

Is this what you mean???
<table> width 100% does not work.
But, I found it ... We need to prevent "zoom" which can be done using this:
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1, maximum-scale=1, user-scalable=0"/>
bookmark.zip has been updated in the first post.

Can I say what I want to say at here?

This will give you the correct view
Need help to build small custom .apk. File needs to have custom logo / banner on startup and then one of the following:
1. Point to login screen (login of actual website)
2. or create login screen that would send login info to website and log me to site
I thing option 1 should be easier, but I still need help. Thanks in advance !
You want an app that just goes to a website? I'm not sure if that's what you're saying.
If that's the case developer.android.com you need to write a program for that, it should be fairly simple (I suggest eclipse with android plugin)
Sent from my SPH-D710 using Tapatalk
That is easy option, and answer is Yes. I need app that will point to my company website which help us monitor some network stuff. Then I will just log to it.
Hard way would be app simular to facebook app (just instead pointing to fb, it points to my site and contains links inside of app (will leave this for other months in front of me)
Thanks, I will look around.
XAP Hosting
Sharing WP apps always has been awkward. often are there questions like: "where should I upload it?", "how do I update my app?","whats happens if I do update it?" and "do I need to replace all my links to the app with the link to the updated app?".
XAP Hosting tries to answer all those questions. :good:
with XAP Hosting you can showcase your homebrew app like never before, you never have to update links because it will always point to the newest version!

Yes Sir, I will do it now
Your username was about, lol, I will try to create a better registration form and such after buolding the api
Will you add a possibility to browse the supplied XAPs? That would be really awesome And you said you're building an API, I could help you with making a WP app so it's possible to browse and install directly from the phone in an easy way
Hope this goes well cause this could be a really good store. I see a lot of possibilities here

Updated post and site! with new design! enjoy <3
I know this was asked before, I've looked at the threads. How about getting an answer this time? I'm going to give an example so you can understand my problem if you don't. If i'm in an app like Facebook and a friend posts a link to Youtube, a box come up that says complete action using with a few choices of apps to choose from, none of being the Youtube app. I've included an attachment of the screen shot. How do I get Youtube to appear on that list of complete action using? Is there a code? if there is a code, where do I put it? Is this the right code....Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse("vnd.youtube://" + id);
startActivity(intent);
I don't know what may be wrong, maybe your borked something because mine works fine.

I believe it has to do with the link itself. A lot of times, even though it says you're going to youtube, the link facebook is actually using is a facebook link.
For instance, my wife is a teacher and chipotle was giving out free burritos to all teachers a week or two ago. The link she shared was supposed to be:
ra.chipotle.com/email/13-all-019/13-all-019.htm

The link that facebook actually gave out was:

It should be easy to see that even though your friend links that crazy cat video directly to youtube, facebook will add their http://www.facebook.com/l/[gibberish]/ to the front of it. When your phone tries to open that link, it sees it as the browser would, to a website (facebook.com), not to youtube. That's why it only gives you browser options, not youtube options.
The problem with trying to set youtube to "see" those links is that this is how facebook links any page. Assuming you could add an intercept to "http://www.facebook.com/l/" to open in youtube (or at least include it in the open prompt), that'll mean all facebook links will have that prompting. That shouldn't be too much of an annoyance, though.
All that being said, I don't know how to add that "intercept" so that youtube is on the prompt. Maybe others can tell you which files to modify.
True...I interpreted it as him just saying that YouTube links would not come up with YouTube in the list
But if you wanted to change it and then choose yourself which links should be open in YouTube, you'd need to change the BroadcastReceiver in the AndroidManifest.xml of the YouTube app to receive all links

Interesting. I'm trying to look through that file on my computer, but my xml editors (read: notepad and notepad++) don't seem to like that file.
But from your explanation, I'm beginning to see that each individual app determines if it's involved in an action. I was hoping there was a mod or app that could "intercept" the requests and let you edit the list right then and there. I was thinking more like Window's "Open with..." command where you can choose any .exe to open a given file. But it appears that you have to modify the apk itself.
If you select the browser ie:dolphin it will then open up the box giving you the choice to select you tube. That is because the link was posted through the browser. If at the point you get to the box with the you tube choice you select it as default it should work from that point on unless you clear cache.

Yup, apps define what actions they wanna receive (scientific term is "Intents" )
And you decompiled the apk first, right?
If it's not specified in the manifest, I don't know of any other way to do it/force it

It seems like a dev could make an app that does just that, though. It could be called "Link Chooser" and it's manifest.xml would indicate that all links open in that program. It would then have it's own whitelist of installed apps and you could indicate which apps you want to open based on link type... I don't even think it'd have to have root access.
Ooohhh, if I had more expertise with android programming, I'd totally make that app and it'd sell like hotcakes on the Play store.
