I've been looking for an RSS aggregator for my new Dash, and I was wondering if anyone has anything they are already using and can recommend. I've gone through what's on handango, and I can't say that I've been impressed much with what they have to offer. Any comments on strength's/weaknesses would be very much appreciated!
thanks much.
Try this one...

I ended up going with Ilium Software's Newsbreak. Sure, it costs money, but it's hardly disappoints when it comes to features. The ability to import OPML files is really nice. I've been using it for the last day, and I'm really impressed with it so far.

Hi all,
I'm hoping someone may be able to help me with this...
Can anybody recommend a decent, free RSS reader for WM6? I have an HTC 620, previously with WM5 and used Avantgo, which worked admirably. I have now upgraded to WM6 and can't seem to find a decent RSS Reader which aggregates full articles / text, as Avantgo does not supprt WM6.
I have tried various including NewsMix, SplashNews and Viigo, but they all either seem to download just the first few lines of each article with a 'read more' section that then connects to the internet (setting sof 'NO limit' on article size doesn't make any difference), or connect to the internet automatically when I would like to manually connect, using my home Wi-Fi, to update the feeds and then disconnect the Wi-Fi and know that all of the full articles are stored on my device, so I don't have to use my data connection again.
Ideally, I would like to use the RSS section of Yahoo Go 2.0 which is installed on my S620, but this seems to update the news feeds automatically, when I would like to do this manually.
If anyone can help, it really will be much appreciated.
Many thanks,
Munkee
I have been using Newsbreak for a while now and think this is the best rss reader. With Newsbreak not the entire article is downloaded and you have to connect ot get the entire document however at least you get most of it and if the story is worthwhile then connecting for a few seconds is worth it.
Try it and download a trial version from Handago.com
i agree, newsbreak is the best. you can even set up filters so you get only the articles you want.
I have bought SPBInsigt and I am satisfied with functionalities in this application.

Thanks for all the replies guys.
Newsbreak sounds like a good one, but I really need something that has full RSS articles and not just the first section, as I tend to use RSS Feeds which I have manually added and so like to read full articles.
SPB Insight sounds like it's the sort of thing I am after, but it's a commercial product. Not that I am tight or anything, but i would have thought that what I am after would be freely available somewhere. Oh well, guess i wil give the trial a go.
If anyone else has any more good recommendations, they will be very much approeciated.
Thanks,
Munkee
I use Viigo and I'm very satisfied with it. It's free too.
I use BeyondPod (http://www.beyondpod.mobi/). It's a free, open source feed reader and podcatcher. It requires Microsoft .NET CF 2.
I like the one which comes on the Samsung Blackjack. You can probably find in here somewhere.
the best RSS reader mini Opera!
The >absolute< best is Newsgator Go! It syncs with your other Newsgator services, like the free web-based newsreader or their desktop client. At $29.95, I feel it's a bit overpriced, but once you get used to having the status of your RSS subscriptions updated regardless of where you access them, including your phone, you might find it's worth it. Also, if you subscribe to MoDaCo Plus, you get a >ton< of free stuff included in the subscription -- Newsgator Go! is one of the software products you get, along with Papyrus, Resco File Explorer, and a bunch of others.

Has anyone seen an RSS reader which installs a url plugin? E.g. if you click on an RSS xml link in pocket explorer it automatically opens up your RSS reader and offers the option to subscribe to the feed? I'm interested in any ways of launching apps from within pocket explorer actually? e.g. I'd like to launch google maps and display a location marker from pocket IE.
I use Egress from www.garishkernels.net

Viigo is what I use.

I've tried SPB Insight ... but it works quite slow (http://www.spbsoftwarehouse.com/products/insight/?en)
Lately I use Egress ... it really does the trick (http://garishkernels.net/egress.shtml)
P.S. Both are commercial ... you didn't mention free
I think the easiest, fastest, and nicest one I've found, is actually GOogle Reader.
Go to reader.google.com on your phone.
Is there the possibility of having RSS so as to be constantly updated on posts and topics? Thank you!!
RSS has been enabled for a long time. If you're using Firefox to brows the site... look in the address bar and you'll see the link for the RSS feed.
Any chance of giving us the address of the RSS feed? For those of us who do not use Firefox because of restrictions placed on our PC's?
Thanks

Hi,
i am looking for tools for offline - informations. I dont have any data-contract. The only possibility is to go online at home via WLAN. From there i would like to feed my Touch HD with video-Podcasts and RSS automaticly, maybe also with other informations / applications which i dont know yet.
I would prefer something like itunes where i download video podcasts and sync automaticly to iphone. Is there any tool like this.
If not - can someone give me a good page for downloadable Videoposts or mobile friendly rss feed with full informations, not only half a sentence and attachend link which need to visited...
OK, i have installed RSS Hub so far. Looks great, but i need to find out how to setup in a way that it also downloads pictures. At the moment, there are no pics.
Also i need to find good rss with full text, not only a introducion and a link.
Another thing - is there any possibility to read twitter offline? Same as rss - download past messages and read them offline.
Regards
You can try pRSS.
I allready choosed RSS Hub.
Is there anything helpful tip for offline twitter?

You can read twitter status updates via RSS.

I used a program on my WM2003 (a long while back) where you could download webpages. You could program the depth of the links as well. It was different from RSS as you could see the entire webpage, rather than a summary. It then showed a sumary on your homescreen. Anyone know the program I'm talking about?
not of a fan of Android NEWS
What other (free or paid) would you recommend?
thanks
I agree.
I'm using BeyondPod as I can sync it with Google Reader so it makes managing them a lot easier. The name comes from the fact that it also automatically downloads podcasts that are part of the RSS feeds you are subscribed to.
now if I can find a way to export my RSS links from SPB insight/NEWS to a new RSS app for Android.
Stupid SPB software allows you to import through OPML but not export.
Do I have to manually enter 25 RSS links ???
If you're using Google Reader you should take a look to NewsRob, it's great!
NewsRoom works well.
FeedR is working well for me, syncs with google reader well
I think the best one for use with Google Reader is NewsRob.
If you don't use Google Reader, I don't know...
Found FeedR just about now and sticking with it
Newsrob is what I use

If you're not a Google Reader user then NewsRoom is fantastic (hoping for Google Reader sync soon).
I gave up on RSS for Android until I came across NewsRoom... Wow! Excellent app.

+1 for NewsRob, has pretty much all the features you'd want (even in the free version!)
Hi all,
Since XDA changed (argh nightmare, hate the default dark mode, my password was too complex, etc) the RSS feed I was using to read the news on Feedburner has also died - how can I get the news from XDA via RSS still? Tried searching but no joy - been using XDA over 10 years now so don't want to lose out on my fix!

That is weird, my feed reader uses that and it works perfectly fine. I use Foxish live RSS feed to add feeds as live bookmarks to Chrome.
Really odd - does work at all in Flym on my phone and it's the only RSS feed I can't get working - I've got around 15 others from various sites that work perfectly. Who knows why, annoying to miss out reading xda each day.
I just registered to XDA Developers to help you. I moved back to RSS from social media and decided on Flym. I Got everything to work except xda-developers RSS feeds.
Based on the GitHub page, Flym development has stopped due to a Google Play Store policy change... but the last change in Flym version 2.5.6 was to the feed code.
I downloaded Flym 2.5.5, the previous version, from https://m.apkpure.com/. Just search for Flym and then scroll the resulting page up to locate the previous version Installers.
Here's the actual download page. I don't know the forum's rules on hyperlinks. I'm just here trying to help...
https://m.apkpure.com/flym-news-reader/net.frju.flym
I exported an OPML file from Flym 2.5.6, then uninstalled Flym 2.5.6.
I installed older Flym 2.5.5 (tap the downloaded *.apk file in whatever file explorer app you use and choose Package Installer). I launched Flym 2.5.5 and imported the OPML file to get my feeds listed again.
Finally, I added the xda-developers feed and edited the feed URL to contain the following text...
Code:
https://www.xda-developers.com/feed
After refreshing the feed, the xda-developer articles loaded!
Be careful not to let the older side-loaded app version get automatically updated to the newer version with the feed issue. I tested 20 RSS readers since last week and I find Flym to be the best.
I hope this helps you!
Cheers
I confirm version 2.5.5 (from apkpure) works.
If I find time I will download the code and see if I can fix (or suggest a fix)
I really hope someone takes over Frederic...
Thanks for the great tool Frederic!
