Hello! Recently a forum in which I'm admin applied the Tapatalk forum, so I can enjoy it in my droid happily. But I still want that nice app icon on my screen, without having to walk all the way through Tapatalk icon > Favorites > Myforum.
How do you turn your forum into an app, for direct access?? Thanks a bunch!
There's the XDA app on the market. You'll have direct access to the forum.

I already know that! What I want is to make my own app to my own forum.
I'm already a user of th XDA forum app.

When a forum admin is agressive with people that try to help him that definitely is no good sign for the future of his own forum. Good luck!
Lol no intention to be agressive, instead I think you're a bit sensitive.

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?

Wtf? No one ever answer's my questions. This is pissing me off.

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.

Hi!
So, for those of you who haven't heard, we've got a new sub-forum (YIPPIE!). It's located in the "Legacy Device and Low Activity" forum (previously just "Legacy Device" forum).
A lot of you use the XDA App and have noticed, or rather noticed the lack of the forum (still in the old place, in the old order).
Solution: A simple sign out and sign in from the XDA App.
See you on the other side!

I appreciate ur info buddy. But i think this should be posted in general thread as a general information. Plz take care of it from next time dude
-double post-
Yeah... Srry about that. Actually I had intended it for the old dev section so people could find this forum, from that old section. Anyways, a mod moved it over!

I have been seeing a recent trend lately so I thought this may help.
How to Search XDA Forms
If you are a noob, or if you just have a general question and you are feeling a little too lazy to read through other forms then this is what you do before you start a new thread about your problem.
(99% of the time your problem has already been talked about)
XDA App Search Feature
For the XDA app go to the °more° tab and click on the little eye glass and simply type in your question or some key words of the problem you are having.
XDA-Developers Website
This may be a little more difficult but stick with me. There is a bar that says search, type in your question or key words of your question and see if you can find what you are looking for. Now for the advance users look around for a topic that you have a question about in the respected form area (I.E. development or Q&A) and search key word of your problem and search that form for your answer
Recommended method you can read the form in its entirety!
Hope this helps and it’s not meant to be rude it’s a noticeable problem.
Probably will be ignored by those who need this most but thank you for saying it.

Hey you never know!
Thats how most forums are, so either get used to it or dont come lol. I don't think I've ever seen a tech forum that wasn't inundated with the same question over and over.

That's not necessarily true. I came from the Evo 4g and the forums over there tended to be pretty clean with that stuff. The mods were all over the forums and older users helped the new users on how to search. I don't know what the Evo forums were like when the evo first launched but at least now there isn't much of the same BS that is running rampant over here.

Knowledge is power bro! These forms will be what we make them if we let people post non-since then we will always have that problem. I am also not dumb enough to think multiple questions will not ever happen.
i take the most issue with the app. it doesn't allow the searching of a forum or a thread... it searches ALL of xda for your terms... which is useless... you might make a few searches work, but over all what you need to a search of the forum you're viewing... i mean i could really care less about the rooting issues on a WP7 device when i'm trying to search for SGS3 info...
but over all the search on the website is stellar

While I agree worth your point, its frustrating not being able to use 'search this thread'in the app, you do know you can limit it to categories at least right? For example you could specify to search just the Verizon SG3 forums instead of all of xda.

OK yea I have to agree with that the app could use a couple more features. Its pretty solid though.

I'll try to see if a moderator can get me contact with an XDA guy to address this and see if they will work it into an update.

Isn't the app a version of tapatalk? Go to the more button, do the search and there should be 'advanced options' where you select the forums...

I'm not seeing that on the free version. Once I do a search, all I can do is scroll down those search results. I can't click "More" as its occupied by the search.

Then they'll have to update their app. You can do that with the full tapatalk app.

perhaps i'll just start using the tapatalk app... i don't browse any other forums on my phone so it never made sense, but if it will improve search functions then i'll switch
thanks for the info

If you do go to purchase it choose your color first. What I mean its if you want one of the ICS compatible colors those are separate apps. It's the same functionality you just have to buy the theme separate. But you don't need the original tapatalk to make the themes work. Make sense?
It's would be nice if the search feature was built into the application better. Is it possible to search a specific forum rather than the entire xda?

Here is the main thread on the subject: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2220719
Please remember that xda has rules governing many things, starting with: 1. Search before posting. Use one of our search functions before posting, whether you have a question or something new to share, it's very likely someone already asked that question or shared that news.
Cheers
