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

Marketplace

I don't get it.
If I use the Android XDA app, the Marketplace is visible in General. Using a real browser however, it's not. A quick search for a link into the Marketplace rears a permissions error. And all of this without being registered. So what gives? Something I'm missing here?

Oh, so it's now visible. After glancing through the rules/disclaimer it appears it'll become accessible after 8 posts for a noobjuice member. Clever.

You need more posts and/or a longer membership (I can't recall the details).
Guess the Tapatalk app needs fixing .

It's not the app...we've changed the permission on the Marketplace to not allow access to a user until he/she has made 8 posts. That 8 post level is also the same point at which you can post links. It's just an anti-spam measure. We found people were registering at XDA just to spam the site or the Marketplace. This helps.
Sorry for the inconvenience.
This is good to know. Long time lurker and finally signed up so I could post in the marketplace but alas!
Can someone link to the rules for gaining access to the Marketplace? I have 8 posts but still cannot see it. Tried logging out and back in but still nothing
For a while there I thought I needed to check my eye sight. Makes sense now.
Hard to achieve 8 post if you have nothing to say or to discuss or if everything is so well explained that you do not need answers
Maybe you could add a waiting time also. Lets say after 4 weeks you get to see the market, I highly doubt anyone would wait 4 weeks just to spam something.
It doesn't make sense that you can view the Marketplace before you sign up (and then have it dissapear after you are a member).
oh!! so thats why i couldnt c the marketplace
I am new here. it seem that this is an useful forum.
welcome to forums
Once you become an active/regula user all XDA features will be unlocked and you will be able to post in marketplace, this rule is to protect us from spammers/scammers
Ah I was wondering why I wasn't able to see that deal I saw anymore... guess I'm off to ask more questions.
I have been on the site reading for 6 months now trying not to poste but now i need to use the market so here is my 8th poste thanks.

Lol. Non-members can't see the marketplace anymore.
Trust me to say too much
As I said before:

Meantime post and you´ll finally get access
Nice
Really smart security measure! I like it.

Yeah I was stoked about it at first, but this app royally blows. It's seriously NO different than opening your browser on the phone and going to docs.google.com. You still can't edit formulas in spreadsheets (a must since I do my budget on there), and the editing interface is just as bad as the web page, in that you click on a line, have to edit only 1 line at a time and have to save it after editing. Why not just let us edit the cells individually? Thanks for finally getting around to mediocrity Google.

I have to admit that I haven't really explored the app very well. But at least it is a start. Maybe make a comment on the app page and email them as to how they can make it better?

My problem with it is that it's literally no different than just opening Google Docs in your browser. I'm just not sure why it was even made if they were going to do it like this, that's all.

The app is supposed to be able to perform OCR on text photographed with the phone. Anyone get this to work very well? Every time I've tried it (on different forms of source text) it just one line of the text, or a few scattered letters. Seems like it could be a handy function, if it worked.

Ah yes, that is a VERY useful thing! Glad to see that there are indeed more features. I just tried it and it's actually very good; I just scanned a page from a book, and although it has a few odd formatting problems, the text was almost perfect. Nice job Google.

[Q] Anyone know how to receive notifications from xda in email?

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!

New Posts (participated)

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)

In the XDA app I just go to Favorites -> Threads. All the threads I post in show up there automatically, no matter on my desktop or phone. I'm pretty sure you're talking about UserCP, no?

No just from navigating the site on FireFox on my desktop normal style, I haven't even thought it might be a UserCP option, lemme see.

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.

Seems to me that XDA just wanna some buck?
it's just like asking why superman wears his underwear on the outside.

period.
XDA has real expenses like server maintainance,
with 4,000,000 registered users and 30,000+ people online,
they need some financial aid to help them provide you people the service,
XDA never forced you to pay a dime but have given you a tremendous amount of service,

that's fine, I understand, I have no issue with XDA asking for donation or anything. But how is this an reason for an independent forum app?

i use the xda app FYI,

and from my point of view,
i find it pretty useful since i only have XDA as my active forum so why bother getting a 3rd-party app when you can download a version directly from XDA.

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!

That's for the XDA app. But that and TapaTalk are so close, that I yea, it just might help at that!
I'll read it and thanks for passing it on. I appreciate it!
