[Completed] XDA & tapatalk - XDA Assist

I use Tapatalk on android for pretty much 90% of my forum usage.
When I subscribe to a thread via tapatalk, I do not see it on the desktop version of XDA?
And the desktop version only shows some of the forum topics I am subscribed too?
It would seem that what i am doing on/via Tapatalk is not been communicated correctly to the XDA desktop site?
Is this a tapatalk issue?

Hi,
Think of forum section subscriptions on Tapatalk or XDA app as "favorites" for that app only. The only way to have sections show up on browsers and all apps is to subscribe to them on a browser on the website. Then they will appear on the apps.
That's just how it's designed.
As far as thread subscriptions, they should show on the website or apps. Are you sure you are looking at the right part of the website? Clicking the "subscribed" tab on your browser only shows sections you are subscribed to and "unread" threads you are subscribed to. To see all your subscribed threads on the browser, you need to click "quick links" then "subscribed thresds".

[Completed] Problem with XDA account

whenever I'm logged in with my acc, and I post or even turn pages in a thread I am redirected to the xda main page. Sometimes the threads won't load but whenever I log out there are no issues.
Not sure if this is the right place but if somebody can help it would be great

If you have a general issue with your xda account, you need to contact a moderator or admin ... here is a guide how to do this.

[Completed] [Q] How do I subscribe to a forum from a non-mobile browser??

I navigate to the forum (not a subforum) I want to "subscribe to" or "add as a favorite" (whatever it is called) but I cannot find anywhere on the main page of the forum (i.e., the page that typically lists XYZ DEVICE General, XYZ DEVICE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting, XYZ DEVICE General Development, etc.) where I can subscribeto that forum (or add as a favorite).
I notice that if you go to one of the above-referenced subforums that you have the option there to subscribe to it. But I want quick access to all of the subforums for one device, which is why that seems like a forum to me, not a subforum.
Also, in the premium mobile app, it has the sidebar which usually says "subscriptions" followed by a number. When selecting this, you are given a list of forums (and/or subforums) that you can quickly navigate to. This is what I am looking for. I have "subscribed" to them from the mobile app, but they are not showing up once I am at my laptop... it only shows on the right under "MESSAGES THREADS FORUMS" that I am subscribed to one subforum I subscribed to 3 years ago.
With the number of forums for devices growing to several hundred why is there not just a way to create a bookmark to go directly to the forum that you have already added as a subscribed forum/a favorite??? I swear I think every time I have come to this webpage I have to navigate down past 90 devices to find the forum I want (or I google XDA XYZ Device....which is a nice workaround).
There should be a way to bookmark a forum. I say "bookmark" because subscribing to a forum is actually confusing. You already have an option to subscribe to a thread and with that subscription, you can opt to receive email updates when there have been new comments to the thread. However, for a forum this is not practicable nor logical. I just need a way to jump to a forum quickly.
It seems like an easy breakdown: Forum (example HTC ONE (or VERIZON HTC ONE if it exists)) ==> Subforum (example: HTC ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting) ==> Thread (example: Help! I bricked my phone!!!).
Thread subscriptions don't have breadcrumbs in their title, but if you are going to subscribe to a thread, you probably will know what subforum and forum it is in based on its specificity.

[Completed] [Q] How do i subscribe to the Z2 main forum?

noob question... i cant find the subscribe button (http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z2) , i can see it on xda assist page though :/ and also can i make my xda android app UNREAD homepage the Z2 forum? right now it shows new threads from all over xda in he UNREAD section.
You can subscribe Sub forums within a Device forum. But you can't subscribe the main forum.
Once that's done, on your favorite or Subscribed Page in the app, only that sub forum will appear.
Oh, ok, But, haven't you guys ever thought of subscribing to a main forum? Im sure you'd like to know the up and coming stuff for your own device atleast anyways thanks for the info
Thread Closed. Thank you.

[Completed] [Q] how to quit participated threads?

Hi, i wonder how to quit participated threads. I am using xda premium 4 app for catching forums, and i am usually use participated tab. But there is some unnecessary thread like just wanted to ask is it for my devices. So i am all time seeing this unwanted threads. How can i unfollow them?
You may think its related too app, but it uses pc sites rules. I can see my participated thread on pc site too.
Thank you very much.
Hi,
You can't. That's just how the site works. But the subscription section is made to track only what you want. Anytime you respond to thread, it's added to the subscription section, but unlike the participated section, you can un-subscribe to anything you don't want to follow.
Hope that clears it up. ?

There is some buttons in participated threads in pc site, like silence buttons. What's their purposes? Is there for silence thread but don't work, or there is just not option?
I recommend you ask about it here, cause I know no way to quit participated threads.

[Completed] Possible problem on facebook

Ive noticed a group on facebook that seems to "represent" xda dev and they're starting side groups for hacking, and torrented apps. Pretty much making a mockery of the XDA name. Here's a link to the page, just thought id give a heads up. Mod Edit: Link removed.
Thank you for bringing this to our attention. I've forwarded your concern through the proper channels and am closing this thread.
