Thank you very much for your reply. :)

I'm sorry for not answering earlier but I was on vacation lately and therefore had trouble with my internet connection. ;)

Regarding your first suggestion: I've been planning to add an option to mark topics with unread posts as such for a long time. Moreover, the backend is already capable of finding out which topics and subforums have unread posts, but I haven't found a satisfying way to display that yet. If it were only about highlighting unread topics, I could for example adjust the background color of the reply count next to the thread name. However, this counter doesn't exist for subforums. Italic or bold font did not look too good either.

Do you have any idea how to do this?

That jump to first unread answer is actually a very nice idea. It's supported by the Tapatalk API, so I've added it to my TODO list. Follow the issue on Github if you're interested. (Btw, here's the one for the above issue: https://github.com/nikwen/forum-app/issues/6)

Thanks again. :)
[Ubuntu Touch Apps and Games] mousse04:
Thanks for your answer. Great to see a dev very available to answer questions :).

Unfortunately, no I don't have any idea on how to do my 1st request, sorry :(.

Thanks for the links, I will look at them ... I hope quite often
[Ubuntu Touch Apps and Games] nikwen:
Well, it's great to see users who actually contact an app developer instead of leaving bad reviews. Thanks for that. :)

I really hope I will find some way to highlight unread posts. If I can't come up with one myself, I'll ask in the great Ubuntu App Developers community on Google Plus. ;)

I'll try to post any progress regarding these issues here. ;)
[Ubuntu Touch Apps and Games] mousse04:
Do you have the link to the comunity on Google Plus.

Edit: nikwen, what about notifications?
[Ubuntu Touch Apps and Games] nikwen:
Here you go: https://plus.google.com/u/0/communities/111350780270925540549

There has been a post in that community today regarding notifications as well. The reason why nearly no application in the store currently provides notifications is that applications on Ubuntu are not allowed to run in the background. They cannot do anything while the app is not in the foreground. Hence, they also cannot display notifications.

The only workaround is to write a server which checks for unread posts every few minutes and sends push notifications through the push notification interface. However, that server would need to know your login information and, let alone the server fees, I am not sure users would like to give me their credentials. Therefore, you'll probably see no push notifications in the near future.

However, I've been talking to another user about providing a scope for your subscriptions. That should make it at least a bit easier.

The primary focus for now is getting BB code parsing right though. ;)
[Ubuntu Touch Apps and Games] mousse04:
Thanks for that explanation.

"Ubuntu are not allowed to run in the background" : so what about multitasking OS ? I mean, is it not the goal of every new OS coming ? BB10, Sailfish ?

I hope this limitation will be removed shortly
[Ubuntu Touch Apps and Games] nikwen:
[MENTION=2368654]mousse04[/MENTION] Multitasking is fine but on Ubuntu apps are suspended while they are in the background. It is a serious limitation but considering how many Android apps start background tasks that don't really need one it makes sense because it really saves battery life.

The goal is to create platform APIs for all important background tasks, that are carefully coded and reviewed. I have to agree that it's impossible though to cover all thinkable usage scenarios.

[Ubuntu Touch Apps and Games] mousse04:
[MENTION=5101348]nikwen[/MENTION] : when you said "The goal is to create platform APIs for all important background tasks". You mean, the goal for canonical, or for you developpers?

If you mean, canonical, then I hope they already have started the job because I can imagine it will be a long term task right ?
[Ubuntu Touch Apps and Games] nikwen:
I meant Canonical, of course. And yes, they have already started. For example, they are working on a messaging API to enable developers to integrate more messaging services into the messaging app. Or have a look at the global downloader. This one handles downloads globally and allows them to run in the background.

However, you're right. It's a long term task.
[Ubuntu Touch Apps and Games] mousse04:
Another feature :).

Being able to use a dark theme ;)
[Ubuntu Touch Apps and Games] nikwen:
Thanks. Yes, that's missing.

However, it's a feature which isn't supported well by the platform yet. It would currently require writing lots of code which I could throw away in half a year when we have proper theming support in the Ubuntu UI Toolkit.

Therefore, I will probably focus on adding more important features at the moment and wait for proper theming support by the platform. ;)
[Ubuntu Touch Apps and Games] nikwen:
After months and months of development, I am proud to finally be able to announce version 0.3.0 of Forum Browser. :)

It is probably the biggest release we have had so far and features our newly written BB code parser. Here's the full changelog:

Forum Browser has its own BB code parser now!

Improvements to the thread view design

Better image displaying

New page navigation

New date format (you can revert to the old one in the settings)

Display the time at which a post was edited

More space for content by letting the header fade out

White splash screen

Slightly improved app icon

If you like the app, I would really appreciate a review in the Ubuntu Store. :cowboy:

Thanks a lot for taking the time to report this issue. It has been on my TODO list for a while but I have never come to it.

Your post has now increased its importance and I'll work on it as soon as possible (but probably still not this weekend).

Thanks again. :)
[Ubuntu Touch Apps and Games] TonyBoston:
Hi and really thanks for that great app. May sound stupid but how do I answer posts or reply to someone?

Is it the "New Post" stuff? Just wondering why its asking for a Title.

Thanks

Tony
[Ubuntu Touch Apps and Games] nikwen:
Hi [MENTION=6829350]TonyBoston[/MENTION],

Yes, the "New Post" page is the one for replying to a thread. I'm planning to add a better reply action with automatic quotations in the future but I haven't found enough time to do that yet.

Some forums make heavy use of the subject field, that's why it's currently there. However, it is fully optional and you can leave it empty if you want. It might be a good idea to disable it by default in the next version but make it toggleable in the settings. Furthermore, it would probably be good to change the page title to "Reply" and make the subject field much smaller when enabled.

Thanks a lot for your valuable feedback. :)

Do you have the „show unread posts ” already on your todo list ?

Sent from my awesome Ubuntu Touch device using the Forum Browser app
[Ubuntu Touch Apps and Games] nikwen:
To be honest, highlighting unread posts has been on my todo list ever since I started working on the app.

Technically, we have everything we need. The app already has all necessary data, but I am struggling with finding a good design here.

If I remember correctly, the Android Tapatalk app and numerous other Android apps highlight unread posts by giving them a white background and using bold font on them. However, the app looks aweful when applying this style to Forum Browser. Additionally, many users might want to browse forums without logging in and I don't really want to change too many visuals for them.

I have also thought about applying another background color to the post count left to thread title but that wouldn't work for highlighting subforums with unread posts. So I'm stuck here.

Therefore, I'd be very grateful if you spend a few minutes thinking about this and seeing if you can come up with an idea that I haven't thought about yet. If so, you would really make an impact here! :)
[Ubuntu Touch Apps and Games] nikwen:
Forum Browser development has come to an end

With Tapatalk no longer updating their API documentation, shutting down their developer support forums and killing other third-party Tapatalk clients through their lawyers because they went open source, I do not feel like continuing Forum Browser development is worth the effort.

That being said, you can still get Forum Browser's source code from Github and modify it to your needs. There will just not be any other official updates.

Nevertheless, I just published version 0.3.1 to the store which comes with a few fixes that I have worked on since the last update.

This release fixes the "new post" confusion and improves the overall experience when replying to a thread or opening a new topic. However, there are still some landscape issues that I wasn't able to fix. The best advice is: don't rotate your device when writing a reply.

Thanks to all of you for your encouraging comments during the past few months and sorry for all the issues I won't fix now. Enjoy your Ubuntu Phone!

According to the following page, it can be done...

http://www.xda-developers.com/andro...n-screen-from-the-comfort-of-your-windows-pc/

But you need to have USB debugging enabled, which I don't. According to the following link that is still possible by sideloading adb. Unfortunately, most of the jargon in there is above my head. I don't really know what to do and I couldn't reply to that thread directly because I don't have permission.

[Networking] OdeeanRDeathshead:
I have just spent the last 6 hours experimenting with the parameters for phone calls. I have been trying to sneak some data into the parameters of a calls so that it can be used to transfer data without connecting. I use LINECALLINFO and LINECALLPARAMS systematically replacing members with my own data to see if any get through. Unfortunately not one byte could make it through. Either it got stripped by the network or tapi, or it would cause the call to fail. This really sucks because there is supposed to really be some room for user to user info there as well as a bunch of unused members. I was hoping to get enough room to allow me to write a free sms like message program but it looks like its a no go.
[Networking] vijay555:
Have you checked CLI? That's meant to be supported, but I think some of the stuff is potentially dangerous so is stripped by TAPI/OS before it reaches network. You might have to go around directly through RIL or lower...

Hi all, I am having great difficulties installing CWM recovery on my i9507 after I rooted my device with CF AUTO ROOT.

First I used this guide but got stuck with the .dll error when trying to run Heimdall. Even after I installed Visual Studio many times!

Next I tried flashing with Odin but only got a seandroid not enforcing error every time I did. I can still run my phone fine and my Knox warranty has still not been tripped.

I hope someone can help!

Does each flash overwrite the last one or will I have like 10 unused recovery files?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dwarfer66:
seandroid not enforcing error means you have a custom recovery with a stock rom. Not compatable.

Hi,

I have a Samsung S III mini, and want to install cyanogen but I don't want to loose my phone. I want to know: if something happens and the installation goes wrong someway, is it still possible to restore the device to the fabric configuration? I searched, but couldn't find any good thing related to restoring after installing cyanogen. Does anyone know a good COMPLETE guide (everything I have found was small too much resumed and/or scattered guides for someone that have never done this thing before) with all things that I should do/install to have be have less chance to loose my phone?

Other small questions:

- An micro SD isn't needed to installation, right? And I won't loos anything in my SD, right?

- Something I have never found anything about: is it possible to save the APPs and APPs configurations (mainly games saves) in the SD to use after the installation of cyanogen?

[Galaxy Note II General] Vichenec:
Someone had to start this topic, I guess it is going to be me.

I've been a note2 user since the release in 2012, never felt enough contempt to upgrade as note 3 had incremental improvements, besides most of the features were eventually ported to note 2, but now I believe it is time.

Note 2 is still a fantastic phone and I don't feel restricted by any heavy games ( just occasional gamer) or apps, the main bump for me will be camera and I also love what Samsung done with microphones in note 4, I have to record a lot of conversations and the feature that able to identify which direction the voice is coming from might be very handy. I'm a huge fan of oculus rift and the announcement of Gear Vr was very intriguing as I believe it is the future of entertainment and having advantage of note 4 gorgeous screen...

Are you excited about new note 4? Are you going to upgrade? Satisfied with the improvements Samsung made to our beloved Note line? How do you find new s pen features?

What are your thoughts in Gear Vr? Availability in different countries etc.
