I know you asked this years ago but if you're still around did you ever get this resolved? It's driving me bonkers.

I don't know how you can tell a post is read. Posts are not like emails, where you have to open them to read them. I think the closest you can get is thread level.
I set my preference to show newest post first and then subscribe to the thread requesting notification. That way i get a notice i can follow right to the latest post in the thread, or i can go to the latest post when i open that thread.
That may be as close as you're going to be able to get.
To set preferences, if you go to "Control Panel" under your user name (top right), click on "Edit Options" on the left side and roll down to "Thread Display Options" you can select how you want threads displayed. You can go here to see what the choices mean.
Not having the latest post first isn't too bad on the desktop on a 30" monitor, where it bothers me is in the XDA app and these settings keep the current posts first. That wasn't working for me on the settings in the app.

Thanks a million. Unfortunately I've done this is 3 different browsers and it still takes me to the first post instead of the last or "newest" so It's very frustrating. I am on a 27" iMac and even get the same thing in windows so it's got to be something with my account but my subscriptions are set to newest first and I even reset browsers and changed the theme of XDA and it's STILL not working. What's ironic is that the XDA and Tapatalk apps work perfect for me whereas you stated they don't for you so we have just the opposite issues. Lol. It's driving me mad lol
Thanks for the reply. I'm going to create a new account as a test and see if that does anything. I'll report back. +1

i can't see pictures attached to the forum most of the time. the post will just show this "attached thumbnails" box and there's nothing in it!
pictures attached inline shows up fine though.
can someone help? thanks...!

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.
hi guys, i just got my galaxy s5 2 days ago,
i can tell it seems nice, but?
1- the tapping sometimes seems not callebrated!! like when i click to show the menu in data usage, it gives me the list to select/unselect the "restrict background data" but i can't select it!! same in many other menus, these menues which they changed from the press bottun hardware into a software menu to select, i can't select the ristrict background data, it is either going to above it "data roaming" or below it "enable wifi measure" how i can callebrate it? how i can make the touch work fine!!?? i even tried to use a thin pen softly many times, i just can't control some menus like the one i said about, also in messages (SMS) when trying to open a first message in the list, it opens for me "create new message instead" looks like the hit comes on the place that is above what i tap!!! any idea why?
2- i want to make the clock alarm put the das like S M T W T F S, but it keep reading starts from Monday, i've selected the regional settings correct "Dubai/ UAE" and made sure that is all like my old S3 which was fine, but i just couldn't make it appear as startting from Sunday!!! any idea?
3- when i am on the home screen, going right, goes to the right page, fine, going right again, goes to the next page, fine, but if i go left, it opens the magazine thing, i don't want it, i just want it to open the last page normally like you are flipping the pages, how i can do that?
4- the usb input place is really disgussting, everytime you need to carefully remove the cover and each ones you have to make sure you do it carefully not to spoil it, is seems thin and can't handle pressure, i just don't know why they put it,,,, any idea how to remove it "without breaking it" out of the device, so to keep it aside and may use it later for example??
thanks for your time guys
Think you're looking for the S5 forums, bud. http://forum.xda-developers.com/sprint-galaxy-s5
That's for the sprint variant of the s5. You can use the "Type to find your device" search box to find other versions. You will also want to enter the Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting subforum for any questions as general threads with questions are moved/deleted.

I've made control F and typed galaxy s5 and galaxy s 5 in the main xda forums page but nothing was found, so i thought it is not yet been created as it is new phone
ok please move it to that one, i am still looking for those answers though
On the top-right side of this page you will find a search bar with: "Type to find your device..." and a small phone icon to the right of said bar. In there, type Galaxy S5. You will see on a drop down list with all of the variants of the S5. Click whichever applies to you, be it the Sprint variant, etc. Since you state you use the Dubai format you may want to go for the international variant. We won't be able to help as this is the S4 forum, however, the S5 forums are definitely active and available.
The S5 was terrible. I'm back to my S4 and happy. It is a step back. No SV-LTE for starters.
Moved to Sprint S5 Q&A.

device was defective in hardware, even software update (fresh software installation) did not help. unfortunately, many people had the same problem as Samsung representative stated earlier today, they took the device from me and will arrange for replacement soon. this is FYI guys.
Anyone getting the camera failed message? Full battery and have wiped data still wont load.

maybe hardware issue as happened with my new device, take it to Samsung warranty center, they may update the software and it works, otherwise, request replacement, i did that and they replaced it for me with new peace after 2 days
Had this issue ,camera worked fine the first day .Than bam no camera took it back to bestbuy . They replaced it that day.

Device my previous, Jumped me a message when I came in to whatsapp..
And I ignored her all the time. Then a few days ago I moved to the new device my:
galaxy s7 edge... And when I put up the updates to whatsapp, And I walked in, and I registered, the app, I saw in Account Settings, That appears to me at V-sharing with Facebook!!!
So I removed the v, And then it completely disappeared. All the definition.
Now I want to make sure that nothing will be shared with Facebook,
Is there a way to do it? (Please say yes )
Thank you
?
Anyone please?

Open WhatsApp on your phone tap the action overflow button in the upper right corner and select Settings.
Select Account.
Tap the check mark to the right of Share my account info.
To disable the feature, tap Don't Share. You already did this so yep that's pretty much all you can do,your details won't be shared

Thank you for your response . There's no way to be sure ?
I'm sending one last time, hoping to get a response from more friends

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.
