How to mark a forum as a favorite in the XDA Android app? - General Topics

I just started using the XDA Android app, and I feel like a moron but I can't figure out how to add a forum to my "Favorites" list. I've tried long-pressing, looked in the menus, etc. But I can't figure it out. Is this some kind of test?

i have the same question

When in the forum you want as favourite, just press options and choose 'Subscribe', you'll get a notification saying the forum has been added to favourites.

But doesn't subscribing mean I'll get email notifications about every post? I do not want that.

You can change your subscription settings, you can also press and hold on a thread or parent thread to subscribe.

Oh, you're talking about subscribing to a thread. I was asking about subscribing to an entire forum. I do have some individual threads in my topic favorites, but I don't see how to get a forum in the forum favorites.

Works the same way, you can also subscribe to the forum from the website and it will show up under your favorites.

Yes, after you press subscribe there's a new prompt that asks about notifications...

[Q] XDA mobile/desktop suscribed topics/shortcuts

Hello,
Isn't there a way to suscribe to a thread by a single click button? I mean, when you clic on suscribe, you're tranfered to a new page asking if you want mail notifications. NO I NEVER WANT. I want to be suscribed directly. Also, like on the mobile app, where's the section to see all thread you participated?
Thanks.

On the mobile app, select 'favorites' at the top, and then 'topics' underneath to see a collective list of all your subbed threads.
You can subscribe to threads in the mobile app with a single click, but not on the desktop version. This is a blessing, as personally I get e-mail notifications on threads in the Q&A section, but not anywhere else.
It's far better to have the choice, than be able to do it in a single click
Cheers!
What i think is there should be more button, one for suscribe without mail or else, one with mail, etc... By the way, in mobile app, in "participated topic" all are there but not this one. This section isn't in the mobile app?

[Q] How to find your threads

Click threads started by you in Statistics!
Voila.... You get your thread!

Requesting a wallpaper(move thread if not correct location, sorry)

Hi. I am requesting this wallpaper(without the icons). I have attached to the thread. I think it's a default on Altcatel Touch Idol.
Have you tried a Google image search?

It does appear to be, given the advertising photos on-line. Your best bet is to go through some of the XDA threads for this device (which are all over the place as it's not a well-supported phone) and pm some of the more active users to see if they can send you a copy of the wallpaper.

When I follow that link, the first five hits are all different threads.
Perhaps its personalized?

[Q] find & list all my posts in xda

How do I do this?
Trying to find a thread I started. Even when I do a search under my username it only comes back with one reply I made a couple of days ago.
In your profile, statistics tab, you can find a link to all your posts.
Or at home, general tab, you can select participated tab which will list all the threads you have ever posted on.

Thanks.
I think they must've all been deleted as it shows just this one & the one I mentioned.
A shame, someone replied to a question which I've just found the time to try. Now I can't find the thread

I mostly use google to search in forums, cause the built in searchers suck badly. Try using google: arb76 site:forum.xda-developers.com
