https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=backmycontent.backmycontent
Thanks for reading

Bump :/

another bump..

Thanks a lot for everybody who visited the post.
I If you think it needs translation to other languages, please tell me so I begin the translation ; which would mainly include the app's interface along with the opened wikileaks page -though documents would stay in their original documents to preserve the information provided by the site -.

Hi, thanks for this! However, when using it on my z3c the content is squeezed to the right. Is there any way to get the mobile view?

charliebigpot
Thanks for telling me about the bug, there's a quick solution though, just press on "permanent link", you'll find it below the logo in the third box on the left, click it and it would open the browser of the phone automatically on the page your were at.
Though I'll fix the native app & update ASAP.

The bug was fixed & the app was updated ; the new version also includes a simple translation of the interface to Arabic language, based on the mobile's language.

Hello.
Please, if somebody can install this on S4 and try it ?
I already tired it on s3, s4 & xperia, it works perfectly on all those devices. Yet a review from a user reported that it doesn't work with s4 (even though I'm sure it does work).
Please, if you have enough time -and an S4 Samsung- try to download it & try.

MIREN BROWSER Update for 12/4

UPDATE:
We just released the RC build. If your previous version are on RC build, you will get auto-updated. Have fun!!
- Add bookmark as desktop shortcut
- Improve performance and battery usage
- Share page
- Find in page
- Expand menu to two pages
- Support geolocation
- Import/Export bookmark via SD
- Support App2SD
- Improve web-plugin discovery
- Add Korean/Italian/Triditional Chinese/Russian
-------------------------------------------------------------
These days are one of the most happy days of our team. With all the help, we released our i18n version and it is very well received. Now we have more users outside China than inside China Again, thank everyone esp. those provide language package and suggestions!!!!!
As I said, our journey just begin and you can expect many updates from us Ok for update target on 12/4.
- Find in page
- Share page
This feature is actually in right now. You have to long-press the address bar to get it. Apparently, this is bad UI. We are adjusting)
- Export/Import bookmark (FF/Chrome, etc)
Again, this feature is there as well. Just now it only work in a special directory. We will let you pick the directory where those bookmark files are
- YouTube related issues
We receive a lot of YT related issues. Please help us by being a bit more specific on your Android version and specific steps to reproduce. YT is blocked in China so it is very difficult to reproduce issues. Bear with us on this for a while.
- Refine translation and more languages
We plan on Korean and Russian
- i18n Top site
We need help here. Different country have its own top sites. We included the English one in the attachment. It should be fairly easy to understand.
"cat" means catagory. class: if equal("m") means site optimized for mobile device. otherwise means just vanilla www site (mostly pc experience)
We need your help to build for other language.
- App2SD support
Alright. This is a lot of work for us. So we may not finish everything...
Please
- Give us comment on more things need to fix
- New feature request
- Help on i18n on top sites and interface
- All other things))
I created http://groups.google.com/group/miren-browser for MIREN-only discussion.
Thanks everyone. We will TRY HARD!!!!!
Russian translation
I sent you russian translation about two weeks ago. You can find it here . So if you'll include it to the next build, I'll check strings and UI aswell.
Thank all your team for great job.
keep up the good work, this browser has quickly and easily became my favorite.
I made a Dutch (nl) Top Sites list, please include it in the next release .
On the Android Market I saw a comment on the browser in Dutch, and the comment is very negative. I've translated it to English:
"Very slow browser, many lags when loading links. I shouldn't recommend it. Samsung Galaxy S 2.2"
Maybe you can do something about it?
I think you should try to improve the overall Performance (scrolling, zooming etc.) because this is imho the biggest negative aspect of your browser.
But nice work, it has very much potential!
Why do you keep opening new threads. Keeping your updates to one thread is much more easier. I don't even see you replying to my question about the screen brightness issue in my previous post.
Here is link to it http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=9428813&postcount=11
i want this as default, but flash content renders over the address bar and it looks buggy and tacky. improve full screen settings. hasten loading times. and re-arrange text to zoom then im all in
Thanks for the feedback so far
Few points:
- We apologize if we didn't response fast enough. We will try to catch up
- Please suggest the best way to maintain a thread in XDA. We actually are very new to XDA and don't know the appropriate way. It seems not possible to change the Title of the original thread. Thus it is hard to tell we want to discuss a new RC instead of the old one. Anyway, please suggest. We want XDA members to try out new RC every one/two weeks and provide suggestions before it goes to market update.
- On performance. We are very serious about it. Please give us more specific steps so we can debug it out. Performance will be a main theme throughout our update cycle.
Yes, we got it thus why the RU version is possible.
Thanks again!

Cache to sd please. Or something. App is getting huge.

I'm having problems with flash playback. I get audio on videos posted to Facebook, but no visual. The same videos play great on the stock browser.
Flash on ESPN is very laggy.
I don't really have any of the performance issues that the others are talking about to be honest. I think the browser is actually very fast.
The one suggestion I would have is to highlight things when you are selecting them with your finger. This applies to the blue menu at the bottom of the screen and also to the bookmarks/history etc. When you click on an entry it should be highlighted, otherwise it looks like the screen has frozen.
Keep up the excellent work.

Saving web page as HTML or even PDF(Dolphin has thus .. )

This is very important and should be made a priority, especially if it is a relatively simple coding task.

Feature request:
When typing in a URL, have the address bar give a drop down that provides suggested URLs with a choice of common extensions (.com, .net etc). It would be awesome if you could also generate a list of choices based on your current location (e.g. if in Australia it would also suggest .com.au, or in china .com.cn)
But loving this browser already keep up the good work!
Hi,
Great Browser, I have two suggestions
1. Suggestions when searching
2. Bookmarklets (Javascript run as url). I use www.lastpass.com and they provide bookmarklets which will fill in log-in details. These work in Dolphin HD but not Miren. There are many other sites which produce bookmarklets for various reasons.
Thanks
1. should be implemented already. However a bug prevent suggestion showing. Should be fixed next week
2. We are investigating.

[APP][1.5+] Weather Maps

Hello! This is Francesco from Italy and Weather Maps is my first app.
I developed Weather Maps to... show the weather on Google Maps!
Where you can find it?
I prefer, on Google Play <https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.fingrtips.beta.weathermaps> as Weather Maps Beta. Or, if you prefer, downloading the latest apk directly from this post.
I need feedback about crashes and suggestions for next development.
Is it a limited beta?
Of course, no. It's the full app.
It's named Beta only because I'm a single developer and I can't test it on 3700 devices...
How can you help me?
I am open to criticism and suggestions. Please tell me if you experience an error and feel free to suggest everystrangething.
I would translate the app in several language, if you want help me in it send a mail to <[email protected]> for details.
Thank you!
Is the app still under development?
Yes! I'm working hard to include new features and to fix every bug I noticed.
I'll use "What's new" tab on Google Play to list known issues and new features.
Is there a chance of getting the choice of temperature in F or C, for those of us in the US? I really like the wind map, being a longer distance bicycle rider!:good:
work fine , I like it .... thanks
Can you attach the apk? I can't download this from google play.

Thank you for your kind reply, I'm glade these maps are useful.
In fact, at present time, there aren't options at all. I designed the app to show temperature always in °C, but in °F only if device localization is en-US and its carrier is US based. I'm confident it works fine, but I have no evidences of it... Do you see temperature in °F???
In any case, you aren't the first to ask for this option, so I'll add it in next versions.

I don't need a precise location because I just need to center the map on your city. And I don't want ask for unuseful permissions, so I don't use GPS to get location. In fact, sometimes android isn't able to get location using only Net: I'll add a message to show the case when it occurs...

Awesome
So glad to see someone continue the development of otrta could you please add support for custom buttons/layouts from within the app or fix the current layouts option (layouts does not seem to work for me, just says edit buttons, clicking edit buttons displays a blank screen...) if it helps I am using an HTC One M8. Also the ability to see the local database would be nice.

It's the next thing coming.. And already in progress
I noticed its not downloading the database filled with user uploaded codes, you should talk to the original dev about making this the official continuation and see if he can give you access to the existing database or if he can send you all of the codes already in it to be imported into your own database. Or i may just be wrong and the app is acting up on me... I needed to use a power code for a tv that i use everyday, after updating to this version i could no longer find the code and syncing did not download any new ones, so i temp switched back to the original version and let it sync, sure enough the code was there...
It's already the database from the official version but it's maybe not the latest.. I will have a look on it.. Maybe it's just a problem with the server.. @antifish is currently busy so he can't send me a dump of the DB every week.. So maybe it's not the newest version of it. If I find time I will write something to Sync the DB of my server with the other one.

Good evening bastianjoel,
is this project still up and running?
I really do not want to force anything, but are you going to update otrta?
It would be very nice, if you would continue this wonderful project.
Please implement the option of creating custom layouts.
And it would be even better, if you would make the haptic feedback optional.
thank you very much in advance
Yes. I will still do it. But I'm currently a bit busy.
A update will come till January
I also don't have a fix yet for that the database isn't updating.. Maybe it's because it's became to big. I will see..
There is now a new Version.
Please delete App data.
That sounds very good. :good:
thanks a ton :good::good::good:
Hopefully you keep this intent in the coming new year as well.
But for now have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Thank you for that unexpected and surprising answer.

There is a little issue I ran in yesterday.
When I tried to upload codes, after having learned them, they did not show up.
please keep this highly important work going :good::good::good:

Good morning, sorry but there is no change at all.
By the way, would be very nice, if you would allow us, to be able, to define new categories and the names of the codes, because sometimes is doesn't fit anywhere. (e.g. hexbug)
thank you in advance

Okay, thanks. I currenty don't have a HTC device for testing and so I can't try if code uploading works.. I will try to get one in the next days. Anyway there will be a temporary fix in the version that will come today.
With the fix I will go back to the DB server from @antifish but that means also that I won't be able to make that with the categories so it will be just temporary until I found a fix for that.
I will add it to the roadmap.

Please hit the "Thanks!" button for this life saver...
Have fun with the sheet!!!
Here is the 2.0 version: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet...KlZnpN6BXCfjhkHhKZ7n0/edit?pref=2&pli=1#gid=0
This seems to be a copy of 3.0 http://i.imgur.com/OOPOyjK.png
I'm curious, why is this discontinued?
Thank You
Thank You so much for this information. Life savers...
Any reason why this died? Most of the roms are from 2013...
Update rom list please?

What future? I don't see much future since the hardware industry got clearly faster than the 3rd party firmware development.
When even the very popular S5 is loosing activity, what can i do to keep my device SAFE and CLEAN? Nothing! (But start to code on my own...)

Thank You looking forward to a great app.
Thanks for owning the maintenance & upgrade of this beautiful app.
However, I have few issues related to APKGrabber
- Whenever, i click Ignore button, in a few seconds, I see a FC.
This is on Asus Zenfone Max pro m1, stock android, non-rooted, bootloader locked, non-twrped phone
Log option do not work all the time. i see an empty screen while i click on log from the right 3 vertical dots
- I would like to visit APKmirror instead of downloading from it.
Is it possible to provide an option to copy the link ( I mean click to download / Long hold to copy the link kind of option)

I think if both methods ('old APKUpdater'; visit APKMirror and new APKGrabber; direct download) could be available as option in App preferences, that would be great and serve both needs.

Please add all dev related stuff to the GitHub issue tracker.
Btw, new release is out fixing/adding that stuff, see link above.

Latest v1.1.3 says it is still v1.1.2 when installed and the update notification shows up.
Thanks, fixed it now. Just download again.
Hi,
Artem here from APKMirror. I'm glad someone revived APK Updater, so kudos on that!
However, the setting you added to directly download from the site now turns the app into a leech which uses up our bandwidth without giving so much as an ad or page view in return. We had an understanding with the previous author about this, and because of them we actively helped him with the fast API and did not block his app. This direct download addition to APKGrabber now, however, goes against all of that.
Please remove it, as it's against our terms of service.
Thank you for understanding.

Hey,
sorry, didn't know about any agreements. New release is out, bringing back the old behavior. Furthermore, i deleted all previous artifacts containing that stuff.
@Archon810 is anybody actively maintaining the API? I would like to get in touch to propose some questions about it. That would help making APKGrabber an up-to-date, stable app.

Hey Dennis,
Thanks for the swift action. We have been hosting APK Updater on APKMirror (last release is https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/rumbo...lease/apkupdater-1-5-11-android-apk-download/), and I'm open to now hosting APKGrabber too, as it's getting updates. Would you like that?
Would you like to chat further about the API? PM me and we can connect on Telegram.
Nice to see a friendly community
Just want put it out there because there are bound to be some people who decide to take the ****... what happens if people don't bother updating to the version that removes the direct download feature?
I'm hoping some action can be taken without penalising the developer, having detrimental effects on APKMirror and the average user

If there aren't to many probably nothing will happen otherwise direct linking will probably just be blocked.
Edit: I love the new ignore button right in the updates window.

Cool, was just putting it out there because more often than not its just a handful of people that tends to ruin it for others.

Yeah so far so good thank you for the updates. Continued fine tuning version detection would good.
When it would auto download from apkmirror we didn't see where it would download them too.
Is your app setup for the Google Feedback for when it crashes? I just sent a log of it crashing.
Can you please add play store link of the app to be updated?
Thank you.
Glad to see this project revived.
Though it still seems to struggle when in background on Pie - actually, I can't remember wether APKUpdater could even achieve a successful background scheduled search - it will start but won't ever finish.
Getting to its UI will show it still hasn't been able to fetch the installed apps' list & actually start the search. (VPN used + WiFi only setting ticked if relevant)
Also, APKGrabber updates never are found after just opening the app but only when a manual search is launched regardless of the auto option being active.
Also, if I may, I'd like to submit a couple of ideas :
- For when notifications are set to show up only when updates are available (or maybe even in other cases), I think it would be nice if the notification could get dismissed as the users gets to the available updates page.
- Available themes are ok but now not one seems coherent with the app's icon anymore. Replacing them with a tweakable theme engine would be better suited to each user's taste.
Great to see APKUpdater revived! It was a long awaited news!
Are you planning to increase API target to Oreo at least? This is one of the few apps on my phone that still targets Nougat
FYI, APKGrabber is available on F-Droid via the IzzyOnDroid Repo.
The app is now live at https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/hemker/apkgrabber/ too.
