Fresh out of the weekend since their support page was updated. A 5-3 release makes sense. Hopefully the radio version is different than the leak, which is reboot happy due to the radio. Software versions match though.

Thanks for the details. I look forward to the official, the leaked was not very stable.

I haven't seen any date associated with the ota update before this, so it was a helpful post for me.

If it's not news to you, stop being an elitist jackass and don't post. The OP was just trying to help.

is there another post mentioning the date it will be pushed ota?
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA App

This is the first time I've seen a release date for it posted.

i apologize if this info was already posted. I was just trying to share some info i just noticed. as many people have stated, i have not seen an actual date of release. I also have access to phones a few days before they are released so if there is anything i can do to help the community, please let me know. i have a thunderbolt, and being an employee, i can have my phone replaced whenever needed so i am willing to try pretty much anything (guinea pig anyones software). so if any dev wants me to try something i am more than welcome to.

nice to know

You should put this out there, as I'm sure many devs would love your help.
Also, I'm sure everyone here would like early impressions on new phones.

I'm not quite sure. Maybe just a new thread in TB General? I would ask someone first, if I were you. Maybe a mod.

I need your help guys...

Hello there Infuse community
Some may know me, others may not. I am Marcus, and I am currently starting a project on App reviews for the Infuse. How they run, are they worth it, how are the graphics, you know all that kinda stuff May seem stupid, may seem worthless. "Why cant we just look at the reviews when downloading the app?" Go ahead and do so, if you find that more convenient then that's great But this is a little project that I have been wanting to do to keep me busy.
What I am asking of you is simply this... Below in the posts, post what App you want me to review, an app you want to know more about. I will download it, give it the through and through and review it letting you know all you need to about it to see if it's something you might want.
So if you want to help in my little project, please go ahead and do so Also you can private message me anything else you want to know and such.
Thank you and good day.

[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.

[Q] Suddenly Pornsites poping up (unwanted ;))

Hi,
Yesterday I browsed though the xda-dev-app and from time to time when i would klick on something my browser opens up and shows me a porn site. I couldn't recreate that behaviour in any other app. Also I couldn't find anything about a malware with that kind of behaviour so I'm a bit in the dark here.
Does anyone know what this is about ?
Is there any known malware that causes this ?
I uninstalled xda and haven't seen a single pornsite since.
I have avast running for 2 months now so there is a bit of protection in place. also I rarely install anything espacially nothing questionable.

Huh..!? Are u serious or just trolling..!?
