Xda app - General Topics

Hi,
A couple of questions
1: is there a way to set it so in forums it goes straight to my phone section rather then seeing every phone and having to scroll through?
2: possible to have older posts at the top? I end up reading the answer before the question lol
Thanks

No worries, check out the forum rules announcement sticky. It'll help keep you from getting flamed. There's a lot of people around the found that are just dicks for no good reason.

[Q] GB Spacebar double tap shortcut not working

So, when I had Froyo, I could double tap to get a period (jokes aside). This is no longer working on GB. Is there any fix?

Your question was posted for less than two hours. Yes, other people seem to be having this issue. Check your Language & Keyboard settings for an option. If it's not there, you'll have to find another ROM to flash or download a different keyboard from the market. A search either in here or the general forum should show that there is a thread on this issue already posted with discussion of an alternate keyboard.

Maybe it's because the question has been asked at least two other times... it happens sometimes... this may come as a shock, but xda doesn't revolve around your questions especially when the answer could have been found by 1) search button, 2) scrolling down the topics page or 3) looking at the settings.

Mod request

Hey my friend pointed out that they split the themes and apps section into two separate ones on the epic forums. I think that would be appreciated here also
Here's a link to that thread

Yes, this was done in the epic 4g forums. IMO its much cleaner, I know, atleast with the epic, there is about just as many apps as there is themes so it gets awfully cluttered and gets difficult to find thing.

Bump? Seriously 120 views and only 2 people who agree, are we the only ones who wonder why it's one category to begin with?

They are trying something similar with sgs2 development forums. I definitely think it would help clean things up and hopefully stop a few needless questions

To be honest I am nit sure why there is an apps section for every device anyway. We have an android app section that I beleice should hold all the android apps. Mostly due to them being universal with the exception of a small few. It is being looked into
Great request. And yes, it can get cluttered.

[Resolved] [Q] Thanks limit - I'm not getting 8?.

I have noticed lately that my allowed thanks count doesn't really reset at any specific time, it seems completely random. I had some members help me out today and I couldn't thank them this morning, so I went back to those post just now and was only able to thank 3 times before getting the "sorry you are limited to 8 thanks" message. Has anybody else experienced this? Or is there a mod that can tell me what's going on? Am I going crazy? I am confuse.
I don't think they all reset at the same time. They reset one by one 24 hrs after you use each one.

No need to think it, you are correct. Says so on that noob guide which I read every once in a while
Sent from my MB508 using xda premium
Jbrt is totally correct about that. So if you use your first one at 6am, the next day your first one will be available from 6am.
If you use the app you'll get more to use though.

That makes perfect sense! Thank you all, I will be back for y'all once I get some more thanks available. I didn't consider myself a noob but I obviously have missed some things so I'm gonna read the guide you posted and see what else I can learn.
Edit: that was a great read, I didn't know those stars = donations, pretty cool.
I haven't really had a proper read through it myself. I just tend to refer to it when there's something I need to know and I feel it'll be in there.

XDA App

Anyone experiencing problems with xda?
For some reason my post are double posting and pages aren't loading properly. Just wondering if anyone else is having these issues?
Yes I did uninstall and reinstall the app and my connection is fine.

I have a problem with not being able to open notifications. When I receive a notification, I drop down the notification bar and tap the icon. XDA starts to open then hangs, never opens. I am on Sky Ice, it has been that way through several updates, I have never been able yo open an XDA notification.

Hey, while we're at it, how 'bout someone make a new icon for the app that doesn't suck. (I would, but I'm not vs developer and don't know how.)

I'm not a dev either but think you might be able to unzip the APK on your computer, replace the icon.png, rezip. then replace apk to phone.

same problem since day 1. i don't know when the last update was but definitely not working for me. Search function is also non-existent.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda premium
Oh yea, the search is horrible. Doesn't even give you the option to search within the thread or for a thread in the section.
That's why there are double post. People search and can't find it, so they post it again and then we have members getting angry about not searching and double posting.
The search, searches the entire site. I don't have time to scroll through 100 threads to find the 1 for our phone.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda app-developers app
Yeah you should be able to search within a device's forum and also within a thread itself that way rom q&a's not stated in op's don't have to be reasked all the time.

Yeah, I have been wanting to ask a question about XDA's notifications, and search on the app was not helpful. I was concerned about making a new thread, then somebody getting down on me for making a duplicate thread.
I could already see the comments, "you should search before you post" "I will not help, because you are lazy" So it goes not getting the help, we request.
Not to mention names but it's the same few members who troll the forms and flame or report everything.
I honestly think that until the search engine for this app is fix that members who flaming for duplicate threads should be ban for a 12 hours. If you think about it, that flame is going to make the thread unless because it will just be a battle between the op and the flameer. Instead of helping out the op as a community or posting the link to the original thread.

some of us actually like using our xda app (search included). paid for it so most people expect it to work. personally, after realizing that the app's search is not working, i almost always try to log in and use xda and google search before asking here.
there is no need to be defensive or sarcastic here. if you feel the need to report then do as you wish but don't expect everyone to like what you are doing. some people are honestly just clueless regarding the search engine.

You're just a big child. You see a post you don't like and cry to your dad (insert name of favorite mod here) and get it shut down. Some new member started a thread and you reported AND flamed him/her. Instead of trying to be a tyrant you should be pointing new members in the right direction. And if someone's phone is not working, you should actually try to help before crying to the mods. You hold the exact same amount of power as any other member. Having more posts or thanks doesn't change the fact that nobody should have to take crap from someone on the same level as them.

And people come here for broken phone fixes because some members actually do help or point in the right direction. If someone's phone isn't working right for whatever reason, don't turn them away just because there's already some large thread on something remotely similar to their problem. Those types of threads don't get users as much help (especially if it's an urgent issue) as a single thread.
It's like if someone was lost on the way driving to Tampa and they asked you for help, and you told them they were noobs for not knowing every detail about the trip before they went on it. And you reported them to have their car towed because they didn't get help from a group talking about how to get to places that are kind of near Tampa.
