Link sharing - Google Pixel 3 Questions & Answers

Love the phone, battery is killer so far. Feels great in hand, display amazing. Ok but I can't figure out how to get link sharing to work on articles you see when you swipe right. Click "share link" and nothing comes up. On Chrome or web stuff it works fine but not on the news feed. To clarify, swipe right and see articles. Open an article and click upper right "share link" and nothing comes up. I'm just missing a setting somewhere.

the link does not work ?
do you have the file elsewhere ?
how to use this browser (how to zoom in/out, where's back button...)?
I was able download the file but it will not install on wm6 , any ideas on that ?
Works fine on WM6, to zoom in/out double tap and hold on the second tap, move up to zoom in and down to zoom out. Best web browser out there..IMO
mirror

thank you for the file. I noticed it crashed when going to flash intensive sites but still a very nice browser for other files like pics and things like that.
Browser is awesome ... lovin it.
WOW this is the coolest web browser! Thank you!
Now I can view pictures, therefore able to view my daily comic strips
Office documents
I think it also shows office documents with full capabilities.
Check your synchronisation first because those settings will change your word document to a pcoket word document
i think the layout of this browser is awesom but when going on internet it takes a very long time to load a website and
but even though i love it!

Your welcome. and yeah it has it qorks about it, i'm really liking opera8.6
you can turn flash on in the REG settings ... search for Picsel
WOW! This browser/pdf/txt/ppt/doc reader is awesome! Renders all to a single page format so you can use your fingers to grab it like pdf pages. Renders all the text to cleartype too.
THANKS!
One thing I can figure out is how to browse back and forward on it, and how to click links without double tapping?
back
tap the icon bottom-right and you see miniature-pages on the lift- and right-bottom to go back and forward
File has been removed. Got a nasty letter from Picsel Tech. lawyers.
just wanted to make a quick note that, for zooming, if you hold on the 2nd tap and drag left or right, it will create a box which will fill up your screen once you let go of the tap (similar to how deepfish worked, i believe)

just PM me and ill give it to you
just curious,
for what device was picsel browser actually developed?
Don't know but whoever made it was dumb to keep it uder locks like this, they should atleast sell the damn thing. Idiots..
The one I'm using says its for Samsung PDAs only, which is funny because I've never heard of a Samsung branded PDA, ever..
I love it for content heavy sites, online manga & PDF veiwing.
IMHO it is the fastest PDF viewer I ever used.

how to set the opera in HD2 to show scroll bar?

i try to set it in 'about:config' but it has no response! i have checked the box of show scroll bar but no change! can anyone help! many thanks!
i havent tryd this so just guessing, but isnt it like the other scrollbars? where you have to hold your thumb far right for the scrollbar button to 'grow out'?
i've tried but the scroll box dont come out!
it is very inconvenient especially when need to drag down to the bottom. now i have to scroll with finger many times! pls help!
Has anyone found the solution to this problem yet?
Come on guys? Am I the only one who visit long web pages?
did anyone find a solution to this.
Is is not possible to have a pop-out enlargened scroll bay in Opera.
Sorry guys but Opera just doesnt have a real scrollbar. All you can see there is a sort of indicator, not more not less. It is just not an active part of Opera just a visual thing. You cant do anything about that...
How can these very basic function be missing in opera which is supposedly one of the best browser!
Even stranger is that I spend two hours searching and noticed that not much people are complaining about this......
Very bad when trying to read entries from wikipedia. Had to flick my finger till I feel like throwing the phone out the windows! Guess I've to start searching for an alternative browser.....
I often read large documents with opera. Getting to the bottom of one webpage I had to swipe down 500 times - yes I counted them!
I agree this should be a standard function of any browser.

Google Reader app other than Newsr?

Newsr had a couple of problems that I will report to the developer but I was wondering if there is an app that can mark as read while you scroll instead of clicking on each feed to mark as read.
Thanks!
i use feedly on both my phone and TF, its awesome on both.
I use feedly as well. Its awesome
Sent from my Transformer TF101 using XDA Premium App
Retab is pretty good
Check out news360 also. Pretty good news aggregator and awesome concept
Feedly is awesome. Just what I was looking for. Thanks!
News360 widget is slick!
Taptu for me. Tried the others and they don't seem so easily customisable and simple yet slick to use.
I'm quite enjoying Pulse. It can import your Google Reader feeds (although it can't export its own feeds back to Reader), and for any feeds you have in both Reader and Pulse, the has-been-read flag will be synced.

You can actually get it to sync? I've tried it several times and all I get is to check network connectivity.
Personally I've yet to find one I really like.
Feedly doesn't seem to sync fully or quickly for me. There have been times that I know I've read an article already and it still shows up. Also I find the layout kind of non-intuitive. When I hit "home" on it I keep getting back to different places.
Retab has a better layout, if a bit crude at the higher levels. Once I'm in a section though it does flow nicely. The problem again is that it doesn't sync or track the read state between levels. If I go into my "android" reader folder and read all of the articles it still shows I have unread when I go back up to the top level until I hit refresh.
News360 is cool looking but dead in the water for me. Twitter and Facebook are the dumbest places to look if you're trying to predict what I like to read. How about, oh I don't know, my google reader account? No? Ok, I'll take a look again when you decide that I can decide what I want to read on my own.
My real issue with all of the tablet readers is that they've all focused on being "different" with their look and feel and have failed with the basic fucntion of getting my news and keeping it organized efficiently. That's probably why I keep going back to NewsRob. It's butt ugly on a tablet, but it syncs appropriately and uses local cacheing so the whole damn list doesn't re-load every time I open the app.

Hmm... do you have multiple google accounts set up? I wonder if that could be causing an issue.
This guy loves Pulse!

Please do let me know what those issues are, so I can fix them.
I have a beta right now that improves the "mark all as read" performance in a serious way.

I sent you a PM about those. Not sure if you received it.
The bugs are:
1) In portrait mode, the app still shows the three columns.
2) Feeds that are in other languages (right-to-left) display the div/html code in title bar.
Thanks!
Is there any chance you could make Newsr sync items that are shared by my contacts under the contact name as a separate feed as per the Google Reader website? Currently the only way to see them is by looking at "All Items".
Also, can you make Newsr sync read items as well as unread? Sometimes I accidentally mark something as read and then want to go back to read it again. I can't seem to do this with Newsr.

I second this.
Also, I just discovered the open-article-with-inapp-browser button. How about loading all links in-app instead of opening the Browser? Example: digg articles.
+1 for Pulse here as well. I'm loving the interface and search function.
Pulse is no good if you have lots of friends in Google who share things and you want to share stuff with them.
The integration isn't there, it just grabs the feeds and that's it.

Yeah I've been having the same issue as well. What browser are you using? I'm on Chrome on OS 10.8.
I just started to do a google search on this. It appears it has something to do with the Adblock widget (Not Adblock Plus) that I run on Chrome. When I turn it off, I am able to see the pics just fine.
Well I can't figure out a perfect solution with Adblock and it looks like I'm going to have to look at a few ad's in any individual thread if I want to be able to see the attached thumbnails.
When in a thread that has thumbnails, you can go into Adblock and select "Don't Run on Pages in this Domain". From there you'll see a pop up with a couple of sliders. Move the right slider to the right so that "/showthread.php" is added to the domain "forum.xda-developers.com". This will whitelist "forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php" so that thumbnails (and unfortunately ad's) will show up when when you are looking at any individual thread on forum.xda-developers.com. By doing it this way you can still continue to block all other ad's from the xda-developer.com domain.
Unfortunately Adblock does not allow you to blacklist parts of a page that are part of a whitelisted domain.
Hope this helps.
I thought it was the ad block that was causing the issue. Disabled the extension (using chrome as well) reload the page but the pictures show up sometimes and don't show up sometimes. Driving me nuts..
Thanks for confirming the suspicion that it was ad block.

Yeah occasionally I still don't get the thread pictures as well. Not sure why either. I just hit the reload button and refresh the screen and that seems to do it for me.

watched forums [SOLVED]

on the left side. I added 1 and deleted 2 but nothing has changed.
what am I missing?
In watched thread, can't unwatch more than one at a time?
Refresh page?
nope. tried that. signed out/in. disabled any blockers.
is it just in the Watched Threads in the Menu (left side) or is it also that way when you go to it on the top of the page sub-menu under "Watched" or in your profile page?
watched forums left side that appears on every page.
watched thread in profile ,I can't seem to bulk uncheck.

At least for me, if I go through the sub-menu's of "Watched" at the top of the page, there are checkmarks on the right of each forum & thread in which I can then go to the bottom and select "With selected..." whatever action I wish and/or do the selections in the "Manage thread" button at the top.
I'm thinking -- particularly in terms of the watched forums on the left side -- that this might be some kind of cache issue and closing/restarting the browser -- or even a computer restart if you wanted to go that far about it -- might show the update/difference....I'm not sure, but it's an idea...
got threads. thanks. I must be blind.
I'll have to try to clear the cache on Firefox.
I restarted Firefox and that made no difference.
ah ha!
