[Q] save/pin threads for easy access

Hi,
Is there a way to pin/save threads to our personal info on the forum for easy access? Pinned as favorite per say on a list in our information.
Cheers

on your computer just bookmark them. you could creak a folder and call it something like xda and put the bookmark in there. or if you downloadd the app on your phone i think you could favorite threads.

too many bookmarks already there are a forums which actually allow this feature of saving a thread to your favorites to come back to within the same site hence the question.
Call me stupid but there's an Xda app? Or what app are you reffering to?

yes therses an app.
or you could post in the thread you want to go back to later and just view all your post

And yes, I guess this second option seems to be the more suitable one... Thanks for the help

[Q] m.xda-developers.com (mobile site) ??

How come one of the largest phone-related sites for android users and more, doesn't have their own Mobile site?
It's no fun viewing xda-developers.com on the phone atm. It gets to big and have to zoom all the time..
And I know about the XDA app. But you only get 'boring' text there..
No images/videos etc.
I know alot of people would appreciate a more simple site to view the news on our phones...
So, how come?
Can it be fixed?
Im not talking about the forum now, only news page- and other pages.

Yes! that'd be great!

We have XDA app and Taptalk for the Forum.
And there are Wordpress readers.
I do want a mobile version layout for the portal though.

If you are a member on XDA, it's likely that you have android or WP7 - they both have apps which make the XDA layout suitable for mobile browsing.

Even the iPhone users have tapatalk.
Herp derp Captivate XDA app.

Forum Runner is also compatible with xda

Maybe you guys should read again?
Im not talking about the forum, I'm using the xda app..
Im talking about the Portal/News site.. And as i said, I know you can read the news in xda-app but you only get boring text.

We're looking into doing a mobile-formatted Portal. The forums with a mobile view isn't as user-friendly as the XDA Apps, so we're not likely to do that soon.

Yeah the mobile forum app. See there's a problem with that. Its search function can't find anything! Doesn't work. Completely broken. Useless.
Try searching for "launcher 7" I got not one relevant result and I know there's plenty of threads with that in title. No option for in post or title only. No choosing which sub forums. Quotes don't work. Its tapatalk based right? It looks and feels like it. I never get searches to work in that app either. That needs fixing. I can't believe no one for all the Google it, and use the search, responses has noticed SEARCH DOESN'T WORK.

Maybe connecting with xda-developer app can be a good idea too.
but without considering about that, it would be a great idea to make a mobile web, too!

mobile-formated portal.

Yes please! I've really come to enjoy the portal over the last few years and the information it provides to the extent that is is one of my bookmarked news sites. However, I've gone to 100% mobile for getting news and as a result, I mostly ignore the portal these days.
I may be wrong, but isn't there a simple plugin for generating a generic mobile view with image thumbnails/headers on top level and image and post text w/ comments on second click? It seems like most of the CMs I've looked at have something like that available... But I don't actually recall what is being used here...
There is also the downside of some plugins in that they do not give you any control over how a user selects which site version. The host server just looks at a user agent etc. and forces mobile content at them, even if they are using a tablet or larger screen. That never goes over very well...

YES ,this is good .
Then, I want to known if this site can be sufring by the mobile phone?

bump! lots of times the tapatalk app fails.. and the full view from mobile is a PITA

can keep track of every thing at any place at any time....

They should update the premium app for ics roms,

Now I know this can't be news....

Yes, that would be great.
I don't like to install apps in order to visit sites in mobile view.

the portal news can be read and viewed with GOOGLE READER and the xda RSS feed.

Who cares about the portal? I can watch the "news" sometime later when I get on a pc. What we need is the forums

That's why there are mobile forum apps. XDA app and Forum Runner.
I think we have too many customised scripts etc that would make the mobile version difficult to implement.

Xda app favorites

Sorry if been posted search from app takes forever if its not on top.
My xda app does not remember my favorite forums. It does remember my favorite threads. Im pretty sure it even remembered my fav threads through FR and reinstall.
I bought the app to support. Please advise or add to bug list.

Build.prop phone calls settings?

I remember I seen someone post something about an app and also a way to manually change settings that have to do with phone calls from build.prop but I can't seem to remember where they were posted.... I think it was in one of the ROMs we have here but not sure which one. This was maybe id say a weekago?
I'm using cm7 now and wanna see if those settings are what I have or can I make my phone call quality, or whatever there for, better.

There is a thread in general with build.prop tweaks
It links to another page that says what some of the tweaks are for, might have what you are looking for in one of these 2 places.

These aren't exactly what I was looking for but it does have some nice tweaks.
But the post I'm talking about was somewhere around our ROMs. Not sure which on exactly right now and I can't find it. Someone posted it and it was edits to build.prop and mostly dealing with phone calls, like sound quality and hiring the volume and stuff like that.

searching around, and found this, not sure it is what you are looking for, but I included the place I found it, and it might help your search
ro.ril.enable.amr.wideband=1 (better in call voice quality)
found HERE

Contextual Search Awesome Feature

Very helpful forum feature that GS3 users can benefit from.
I found it by accident while reading through a few rom threads and it's AMAZING. Just highlight some text or a phrase in any post, and a tiny magnifying glass appears just above the highlighted text. Click on that for a contextual search. Hope this helps some of you as much as it's helped me.
I've never seen this feature in any other forum, so way to go XDA!

You can't highlight text in the app. What are you smoking?

I think he is referring to a new feature in the recent leak, therefore it would never work on any computer that is not also a galaxy s3
Edit: whoops, I misread - I thought you were replying to the OP, instead of responding to the guy who did reply to the OP, lol
But if you do ever need to highlight text in the app, just quote the post you need, highlight the text, and discard the past when you're done
