[Xposed Framework Modules] 2PointOBoy:
Not the guy you replied to, but bit.ly & dlvr.it links aren't unshortening on 5.1.1. This is consistent but I'll try to post the logcat if you need it.
[Xposed Framework Modules] GermainZ:
Can you please post any example? Thanks :)
[Xposed Framework Modules] 2PointOBoy:
Most of the "Error occured. Could not resolve URL" errors I come across are while browsing my Twitter feed. For example, [MENTION=1834185]gsmarena[/MENTION]_com posts bit.ly links and Android Headlines posts dlvr.it links.

Here are two latest links from their accounts rn:

bit.ly/1Ilks4m bit.ly/1SOHKri

dlvr.it/BllB9b dlvr.it/Bll678

All other short URLs on my timeline open without issue.
[Xposed Framework Modules] an0n981:
I tested all 4 links in my Twitter client of choice (it.mvilla.android.fenix), all were properly unshortened
[Xposed Framework Modules] 2PointOBoy:
I just disabled and renabled it with a soft reboot and it seems to be working now. I've had the issue since I installed CrappaLinks. Must have been some sort of incompatibility with the other things I had installed in here.

I'll update if it crops up again or if I can find out when it happens.

Hi Germainz

longurl web site is no longer reachable. Can you please replace it with another working one?

Thanks
[Xposed Framework Modules] The Wrath of Kahn:
I'm guessing this is the issue with the "no network connection" error message while trying to resolve links lately? It just repeats over and over without timing out.
[Xposed Framework Modules] MrWasdennnoch:
Indeed, longurl.org seems to be unavailable, I get a "DNS address not found" error when trying to open the website. Guess we have to use the old fashioned way by letting the module decode the url :cowboy:
[Xposed Framework Modules] GermainZ:
I'll look into an alternate service as soon as I can. Please use the alternate method in the meantime. :)
[Xposed Framework Modules] The Wrath of Kahn:
That doesn't work either it seems, just tries over and over without ever resolving. Have to manually kill the process. Hopefully we can get an update soon.
[Xposed Framework Modules] OronDF343:
Nested shortened links aren'n resolving for me

An http://lm.facebook.com/l.php?u=... link from the facebook app is unshortened to the right goo.gl link, but it isn't unshortened again. I have the resolve all URLs option enabled.

sir

I'm currently using crappalinks on stock samsung jellybean rom with xposed installed.

when I'm clicking any links it says shortening url and then shows no network, unable to unshorten url.
[Xposed Framework Modules] MrWasdennnoch:
Are you using longurl to unshorten links? If so, disable it as longurl is down since several months.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Elanza_48:
No sir, I'm not using any long url . I'm using the url s by adf. ly, bit.ly etc.
[Xposed Framework Modules] MrWasdennnoch:
I mean in the settings, there is an option to use the longurl service to unshorten links. Disable that.
[Xposed Framework Modules] GermainZ:
Here's a new build to test :)

CrappaLinks-2.9-test.apk

Changelog:

Migrate from longurl.org to Unshorten.It!

Add support for new URL maskers: go.theregister.com, securitylab.ru, saviry.co, libnads.xl.co.id, googleadservices.com.

Improved support for the following URL maskers: facebook.com, google.com, viglink.com.

Add support for new URL shorteners: "ppt.cc", "feeds.gawker.com", "tinylinks.co", "vk.cc", "rch.lt", "mynt.to", "brt.st", "kom.ps", "urly.fi", "qklnk.co", "hec.su", "tr.im", "qr.ae", "full.sc", "smo.sh", "bit.do", "shar.as", "email.ifttt.com".

redd.it links are now directly expanded.

The CrappaLinks confirmation dialog will now use the device default theme (it'll no longer show as a Holo dialog on newer Android versions).

Crash fixes.

Some of the changes may have caused some URL maskers to stop being detected correctly. Please let me know if you find any.

I took care of most of the requests in the Google Form (link). Some requests were missing info (marked in yellow), others I skipped for the time being as they might take some time (no background color). For the latter, please feel free to post about it here if it's important to you so I can focus on it.

Thanks for the 2.9 test build release. I was looking for something to help with GoogleAdServices. By Default, Adaway blocks any GoogleAdService crap so most google shopping links would just go dead. It looks like this latest Crappalinks Test Build fixed the issue and just removed all the tracking and Google Ad crap so Adaway wouldn't block it.

[Xposed Framework Modules] davidred7697:
Is it a common issue that the module breaks shortened kinks after it is uninstalled? I recently uninstalled it on my phone after noticing no difference, but many (if not all) shortened or hyperlinked texts don't work.

I've noticed it the most in the app "Slickdeals" since it has a lot of hyperlinked text, but I've also noticed it in other apps.

For example, there was a recent deal posted for home Depot, but when I tap on the link, chrome takes me to this site http://www.jdoqocy.com/click-122526...5267-_-Home%2520Depot%2520Product%2520Catalog

But it says "this site can't be reached" "jdoqy refused to connect". Please help.

seems like the proper thing to do would be to let the devs know that the users do not support or want that function of the app, maybe if enough people are behind it they will remove it.. same thing kinda happened with Dolphin and a few other apps a while back

just my 2 cents
[Xposed Framework Modules] famewolf:
Bug fix requests have been filed. Complaints on their support forum in the dozens have been posted. Tapatalk does not care what you and I want as we are not the customer...we are the product.

The bug reports were closed as "will not fix" with no explanation. A search on "Tapatalk tracking urls" here on xda will find the original thread or it's mentioned in the first page of this thread.

I still struggle understanding the use case for this. Would an example of the usefulness of this be on YouTube links in brave browser? When I click a YouTube link in the brave browser it starts playing in the brave browser. I have to then click the YouTube hyperlink beneath the video to get it to open in my YouTube revanced. Would plication of this lsposed module to brave mean that when I clicked a YouTube link in the brave browser the YouTube video would automatically open in my YouTube app?
[Xposed Framework Modules] Nergal di Cuthah:
It's more for bit.ly type urls (other examples are tinyurl and t.co) if i remember correctly it flashes a toast notification of the shortener when one exists (but i haven't used it since my pixel 2xl so i might be wrong about how it works but not what it is)
[Xposed Framework Modules] Schroeder09:
So do you then click on the toast message and it brings it up in the appropriate app like playstore or YouTube? What's the utility of this?
[Xposed Framework Modules] Nergal di Cuthah:
A bygone day when malware was hidden in nonprivate shorteners like bit.ly and tinyurl (i still see it in some spam but not at the volume seen when i used this mod)

As far as i know you cannot click a toast message.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Schroeder09:
So this is a security-based mod that gives a secondary check on the contents of a link, so you can see you're actually clicking on and going to a link you think you are?
[Xposed Framework Modules] Nergal di Cuthah:
Yeah sounds about right
[Xposed Framework Modules] purgy:
From my understanding it just unshortens the url in the background, the then properly formed link has the happy side effect of opening in the correct app.

Seeing the demand, I won't be limiting this module to TapaTalk only anymore. I've just pushed a new version to the Xposed repo which also removes the link tracking from the Google Play Store.

The name "CrappaLinks" was originally a play on "CrappaTalk" but I guess it'll do just fine for now. :P

About Facebook - I don't use it. I've taken a look at it and tried to figure out what to change but couldn't do it. I might take another look later, but no promises. Of course, pull requests are very welcome.

Of course, it depends on the website but it is possible. I just need to get the HTML document and modify it. That's what I'm doing with the Play Store (it uses HTML for the description of apps) actually.

Naturally it's more complicated and heavy for websites which are bigger and more variate.

[MENTION=4540792]Persechini[/MENTION]

Which Feedly app? Also, how does Feedly mask URLs? I've given it a quick try and it seems to have everything open in its own browser/integrated player, so I don't understand what you want to change in the first place.

Also note that this module's goal is not to unshorten URLs, but to unmask them. In other words, I'm happy to try and support apps that mask your URLs, where URLs usually look something like this:

http://google.com/?something=[COLOR="DarkRed"]http://actual/url/here.com/etc[/COLOR]&tracking=alalalala

But not URL shortening, which looks more like this:

http://bit.ly/asdjoAFH

... unless the URLs are generated client side. They usually aren't, though (TapaTalk does it that way.)

The reason for this is simple: it would require the module to connect to the internet, open the shortened URL, wait for it to load, get the original webpage's URL, then modify the intent to use that. Can this be done? Sure, but it's unreliable for shorteners that require user interaction, its speed highly depends on your internet connection, etc. :)
[Xposed Framework Modules] Persechini:
Hmm, probably what happens is a redirection then, when I share a link I get something like http://feedly.com/e/CdWkcH70. I wasn't asking to mess with the built in browser (although it's annoying when trying to open YouTube or play store links in feedly when you'd rather them on their dedicated apps), that is probably something I will write feedly developers about
