[Online Courses, Schools, and Other External Resour] jwdink:
Hi,

I like working on the website Codeacademy.com, and would love to do so on my android tablet (kindle HD), or even my phone (razr HD). However, every browser I've tried has had a terrible time with this website: browsers love to zoom in too closely when I start typing, they have trouble scolling in a text window within the main window, etc. (just try it, you'll see what I mean).

Does anyone have any suggestions for a browser that would fare better? Or perhaps dolphin has an add-on that would mitigate the problems? I have trouble believing that I'm the only one who likes to use this popular website on an android device.

Any help is appreciated.

EDIT: The kindle is restricted in its browsers by default, but I haven't had any trouble downloading apks and sideloading, so that's not a limitation to worry about.
[Online Courses, Schools, and Other External Resour] dncjor:
Me too

I am looking for it too. It would be awesome if codecademy made an android app for its exercises
[Online Courses, Schools, and Other External Resour] Guitarman:
I've tried it too and it's very frustrating. Thanks for mentioning CodeAcademy since I only knew about it since I read your post :)

[Online Courses, Schools, and Other External Resour] jwdink:
Agreed-- though I feel like they shouldn't have to! This website isn't doing anything particularly advanced--it's just a text box to type in--and I feel like one of the myriad android browsers should be able to handle it. Especially since each one has a different unique problem with the website.
[Online Courses, Schools, and Other External Resour] jwdink:
Okay, looks like Maxthon browser works tolerably well. Good browser overall, actually.
[Online Courses, Schools, and Other External Resour] dncjor:
Jwdink,

Good to know Maxthon worked for you. I tested many, including Maxthon, and I always get the same problem.

When I click on the box to type, and try to move it up or down, everything goes white and I have to find the box again...

I tested with chrome, opera, firefox, dolphin, dolphin beta, and others less known browsers, and always the same problem happens

Now I'm gonna test with firefox beta..

I emailed codecademy some days ago concerning this matter but got no answer

Did you notice the site doesn't have a mobile version? Maybe if they can create one, it could fix the problem
[Online Courses, Schools, and Other External Resour] Guitarman:
Maxthon didn't fare to well for this task on my rooted Kindle Fire running Gingerbread :(.......I sometimes have success with the latest release of Firefox (not the nightly edition) but many times will have to refresh the page to get the coding input box to respond "halfway" normal.

Even on my Windows 7 laptop the site has issues and I've tried IE9 and the latest Chrome. Maybe I'll try Firefox on the laptop today. On the tablet I find myself reading the tutorial from the website on whatever browser I'm using but will not try to implement the code there. I'll just open up my good old text editor and code there using what I learned on the site and then run the code on "x" interpreter (in my case the Python) and it's much easier to do it that way.

When I have the lesson running correctly I will return to the website and "attempt" to complete it on there either possibly with Android Firefox or on the PC so it will keep track of my progress. Otherwise I would get WAY to frustrated trying to get every little step to run in the browser's input box!

And yes, a dedicated app for this website would be ideal :)
[Online Courses, Schools, and Other External Resour] jwdink:
Huh, sounds like this site just isn't designed to work on anything but a traditional PC... I wonder what the big difference is?

Please, I am a codecademy student and want to ask if you have any recomendation for a good way of using the site on android devices, because it is very difficult to do the exercises on the browsers for android.

For me, and others users, like this guy:

and, I believe, many others students, it would be very very useful if you could make a codecademy app for android, where we could do the exercises.

You could try Naked Browser, which till now has given me a cohesive desktop like interface,
[Online Courses, Schools, and Other External Resour] ant178:
I don't think its very effective to work on codeacademy from your tablet especially if you aren't using a real keyboard. Codecademy has problems with browsers in osx and windows and I can't imagine how it would work on a tablet which browsers that do much less. Codecademy gives me issues everytime I use it, some courses are sometimes impossible to complete unless codecademy themselves fixes them. Python last summer was uncompletable due to weird errors which tooks weeks to fix.

Also, something you should be doing is after you complete courses, go make something with your newly gained knowledge. I can go through every single course in there and might not have a full understanding without actually making something, plus, you have to get used to dealing with the unexpected because everytime you code, theres going to be some problem. You can't code much things comfortably in Android either, at least I haven't been able to.

Try using ucbrowser.

I've tried Firefox, dolphin, boat and maxthon but for me uc browser works best. I'm talking about web browsing in general, uc browser is my pick for mobile web browsing. I've never visited code academy on ucbrowser though. Give it a shot :)

Foxfire & disable autocorrect/autocomplete

To use codecademy on my rooted Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 (n8013) tablet I used Foxfire (stable or beta) browser and I disabled the keyboard's autocorrection/autofill/autocapitalization functionalities.

Tested but couldn't use stock browser, Chrome, Dolphin and Opera. Tested but couldn't use Swype keyboard and Google downloadable keyboard. Something weird happens connected to the shift key.

Should say my Samsung's running stock (Cyanagenmod) Android 4.2.2, no bloatware. Don't know if that matters or not.

Hey,

Im trying to use codecademy and khanacademy.org but im using a Sony Xperia Z2 Tablet (stock rom). Ive tried UC browser as well as many others (chrome, naked, firefox, dolphin, maxthon, boat, maybe more) with no luck. Code isnt selectable or pastable, and sometimes i cant even delete.

I dont have access to a computer at the moment and would really like to take advantage of the interactive tutorials on those sites. I even bought a mouse thinking it would make text selection easy but i now realise android mouse support is lame and just emulates a finger.

If anyone has any solution for this, please let me know.

Hello jwdink,

Thank you for asking this question almost two years ago. Like you, I recently stumbled across the delimma of learning to code at codeacademy.com with my nextbook tablet device.

The solution that works perfectly for me is to request the desktop version of the web browser.

A quick review of the steps involved (Recent Google chrome at time of writing):

Click the menu button

Select "Request desktop site"

The page will reload automatically to a closer version of codeacademy that you are familiar with on the desktop site.

Thanks so much, currently on my Samsung Tab S 10.5 with a logitech keyboard, and works extremely well with codecademy now:D
[Online Courses, Schools, and Other External Resour] rado932:
Hey, I'm using nexus 9 with the official keyboard. The only browser that worked for me, from the ones in this topic, is Naked Browser.

Edit: My mistake it was too early to judge it doesn't work. Everything is displayed but no text input is possible. I have also tried the Firefox Nightly but it also fails at the input field.

I guess for now I will need to use my laptop.
[Online Courses, Schools, and Other External Resour] kwmen:
It seems that I have found a solution how to run Codecademy on Android devices.

The solution definitely works ( the codecademy page loads, I can log to my account and it is possible to edit and submit the code) and I think that due to how it is done it should work on most devices.

So how I have achieved this?

I have installed the app from the Google Play Store called "Debian noroot". If this sounds familiar to someone, you will know that this solution involves running on your device some kind of Linux OS.

However don't be afraid at this point because in this case it is not harder than installing any other app on your Android device. Please consider that you will need about 1GB of free disk memory on your device (app cannot use the memory card).

After installing the app it will download and unzip some files and then you will see on your device standard desktop environment with mouse pointer.

Then you will need to install in this "faux" Linux an Internet browser (in this case the browser is Ice Weasel, which is quite similar to the Firefox).

The simplest way to do this entering in the console/terminal:

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get install iceweasel

After that you can open the browser and the Codecademy page - Let me know if it works on your device.

The codecademy page displays that the browser is not supported, however it seems to work.

What I'm posting about

Good to see Maxthon Browser mentioned. What I am posting about. I have been given the next version in the Maxthon line, MX5. And it is worlds away (ahead) of anything available for Android and even Windows 10 (only version of windows it will work on)!!!

I am posting on here in various places about starting a thread on it, making the download available. There is one for Windows 10, Android, and even iOS. This version cleans up and fixes any issues with Maxthon Browsers latest version available on the playstore and takes it to the next level with included tools. It has full developer tools built in like IE, view modes are Android, Safari, desktop and mobile, emulates IE in desktop view mode. Has the abilility to save an entire web page for offline viewing as well as extract pics, videos and clean them up for use in other projects. Of course the synched fav's, open tabs between devices.

Has what is called UUMail. Gives you your own server to name anything you want. You can enter in your regular email address, create shadow (alias) email addresses to use online that are filtered for spam just like the adblocking does on your browsing.

Not going to try and mention everything, looking for suggestions as to who to ask before setting up any kind of thread.

I'm sure you would have to create an account through Maxthon Browser off playstore as this requires logging in to use.

Suggestions, please.

Currently codecademy works on newest versions of Firefox and Chrome for Android.

In Chrome entering the code in tasks works a little bit strange because entering a letter adds also additional new line.

However in Firefox everything seems to be working perfect.

[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] KiD3991:
If you wanna go to JB, SlimBean is a good choice. Else ICS, stick with Arco's stock.

I'm not a fan of JB yet, not until it stops random rebooting everytime i wake my device.

I had once the most crazy battery life once, experimented with wifi, minor whatsapping, 30%left in 4 days. But once I go back to common usage, the phone crashes easily and kept rebooting by random.

Hadi's and castagnal IT 's kernel are awesome, but depending on need you need to experiment on which setting suits you best though.

You're going to have a rough go with this without root, and a cumbersome one, I'm guessing.

EDIT: Btw, a normal nandroid and restore would be the best option in my opinion. You'd make a nandroid as you normally would, then just transfer the backup folder to the SD of the new device and restore. Nothing else would be required; it'd put everything exactly as it was on the old device.

So, my phone is doing some weird things. It says that the USB is connected when it's unplugged, and says disconnected while the cord is connected. It won't charge anymore either. I tried cleaning out the port, different cords, restarted the phone, removed the battery and put it back in, formatted the phone, and nothing's worked yet. I bought the phone in March, so I might still be covered under warranty, but I'm currently in another country, so not sure if it still applies here. Any idea?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azzledazzle:
There are many cases of faulty usb ports on the Note, i suffered it too a few weeks ago and had to claim under warranty.

I think you should do the same, it's possible to do it yourself and there are guides and videos online, but if you don't feel confident in doing it then send off for repair.

Do you have any friends or family in the country you purchased the Note from? You could ask to use their address for the phone to be returned to.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] p51d007:
sounds like a bad port :crying:

Mine is suffering to, but from self inflicted damage. Was plugged in, laying on a table with the end of the phone hanging off the table. Dropped something on the table at the end of the cord, and it bent the cord/usb port. If I plug it in, it charges, but barely touch the cord and it disconnects. I suspect the soldier connection is broken. Got a new port coming, but won't be here from China until mid January.

Watched the video on replacing it, other than a few screws and being careful, doesn't look too bad...been in the repair/electronics business for 30 years...with a magnifier glass, even these eyes should be able to do it :victory:

hello all..

I'm helping a friend installing a NAND version Android on his HD2 device running WM 6.5

I've upgraded the SPL to HSPL 2.08, and installed MAGLDR. I'm at this point now.. I haven't installed ClockworkMod yet. and I'm still choosing between ROMs.

While searching, I keep finding a line talking about "the required partition size" and "the required cache size". My question is, Is this just an informative line telling you what to expect, or you need, according to this info, to reconfigure disk space, or anything else in your phone?

Also, Can I install ANY HD2 ROM using MAGLDR, and this method?

Thanks in advance,
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Nigeldg:
Read the guide in my signature, everything should be clear. Each ROM requires a certain partition size, you can change it using the hd2 toolkit. Almost all ROMs will work with MAGLDR and CWM. You shouldn't have to change the cache partition size, I haven't come across a ROM which uses a 45MB cache partition yet.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] hunted22:
Thank you my Nigeldg... I'll check it out.
