Tapatalk - General Questions and Answers

Is the tapatalk forum app any good? It sounds like a cool idea but hasn't gotten many good reviews lately.

Xda app is based off tapatalk and I think its pretty good software. If my reg. forums supported tapatalk id prob buy the app

I use it for a few forums (Cyanogen, XDA, RiderForums) and it makes viewing them all easier since they're in one place.
Every once and a while it does hiccup though, it'll just hang on a screen for 5-10 seconds - for example when loading favorites - sometimes with a Force Close popup dialog box, but if you click 'Wait' instead of 'Close' I'd say 9/10 times it loads the page you want without restarting the app.
It's a lot like the XDA App: not perfect but convenient to have.

Mine has never force closed or freezed, has worked like a champ. Use it to visit Overclock.net, and it works very well. Definetly a winner if you visit a lot of forums on your phone.

XDA also supports Forum Runner, a similar app...you may like to try that as an alternative.

i was thinking about getting it but from the latest reviews i seen theres a new one that you will have to pay for also and other people said the update brought new problems

^ I downloaded version 1.4.2 yesterday on my motorola defy and it's working great. No issues whatsoever.

After the second update of today with the SGS fix it works very well. Had no fc or other problem anymore.
Noticed now that it has ads now. Is this new? Or haven't i noticed it before? XD

No FC's here on my end.

Hate the ads tho.. and it seems to load slower when connecting to xda.. but the new look and small features are nice
Hi
I hate the ads too
In some apps they are ok but here they get in the way when scrolling and they cover up the navigation buttons.
Must admit i have really got used to using this app but now I think I might just use the browser instead

[Q] Bought XDA premium app, but crashing

I am running modded vegan 5.1+5.1.1+kernel replacement. I bought xda premium app, but unfortunately whenever I try to view a thread or search, it errors and force closes.
Any hell would be great. This must be an issue with specific version / combination of ROM I am using ?
Thanks!
I've tried the free XDA app, several times the last couple of months and it always FCed. I'm assuming that the paid one us based in the same code. If you search Xda, there are a number of threads, but no fixes.
It always seemed ironic to me ...

P.s. I think some people use Tapatalk, but that's also a paid app.
I was googling, and found an older version (0.9?) that doesn't blow up, but it doesn't seem to have a way to set favorite forums:

Both the free and the premium versions fc for me, but I don't have any problems with tapatalk.
Swyped from my St0n3d VEGAn 1.0 Beta 5.1.1 G-Tab
the xda app has always been a pos with the gtab
Sad but true. I knew it fc'd but I bought it to support xda. Bonus is that it works on my phone
Plus we have a 10 in screen and the app doest come close to full net view
Sent from my Chromatic Magic using XDA Premium App
I do not know if there was a recent update or not but I looked in the market and tried to install the recently unsucessful XDA premium and it installed and is working great!
I found if I don't sign in, it doesn't crash.

[Poll] XDA/Forum Lag when using XDA app/Browser

XDA and other forums are unbearable for me. I can view just fine but if I go into a thread to reply the text input is so laggy and like 2 seconds behind. This is really annoying when I mistype a word and backspace. Anyone else having these issues? Any solution?
Xoom model: wifi only
HC version: 3.1
Kernel: Tiamat 1.4.2, 1.4 ghz
I am using the Tapatalk app. No lag at all when replying to posts from my Xoom
I'm stock. Is it a kernel issue?

I found that the Tapatalk app was much better than the free XDA app, or using the browser. I have heard that the XDA premium app is much better also, but I can't speak from experience.
With that said, I also noticed improvements when going from 3.0.1 to 3.1. And I noticed further improvement with Tiamat 1.4.2 kernel.

The thing is that I have lag with multiple forums. I frequent XDA, MMI, ATS & Honda Tech and the text input is laggy as hell. It doesn't matter if I'm using my BT keyboard or on screen keyboard to reply.
I don't have TapaTalk and was just wondering why it lags and why we would have to rely on an app to respond in forums. It's been bugging me a bit.

I would suggest that you try Tapatalk. It's inexpensive and you might be pleased and surprised with the results. I can't explain why, only tell you my experiences.

Question regarding market

Hi guys, I wanna know whether something wrong with phone/market or everyone experiences the same thing. The issue is market shows maybe 1% of the total hits. For example if I search clock in the market then it says 21000 as result but when I start to scroll down it shows only 2_3 pages and stops there as if thats it, no more apps.
I did not experience this with the old market. I have gs2 and no root.
Anything I can do??
Thnx

Noone has the same issue? I really appreciate an answer.
Thnx

I have the same problem and have not gotten an answer either. Say I search for "root" 50 apps will show up, but at the top out will say 2000. But I want to see them all. I don't get it.

I deleted all cache and data etc and same thing even deleted market and reinstalled så need some advise here.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
I did that too. the only way to get it back to normal is to install the old market. Your going to have to root to do that. Just revert back and freeze the updater
Sent from my DROID BIONIC using xda premium
I don't like the new market. So many developers are loosing money by not having their apps visable. Plus google isn't any help. Tried that too

I have the same issue. Also, some of the pictures are not working.
If I check out a app the small preview pictures are fine but if I touch them to fit the screen I have problems viewing them. Usually the second one is only a black screen.

Xda app update

I am using the free version, wife refuses to let me pay something thru phone with debit card, but since the update this week, the app loads topics very very slow, but the ad loading is very fast. The app is almost unusable, seems like its more concerned with ads than topics. Anyone else notices these issues? Its the same on every rom ive tried and im no noob, flashed over 500 rom flashes on multiple devices.
Sent from my HTC Mecha using XDA
Getting the same subscriptions also shows up with no topics.
