Min SDK is 16. Try downloading it again
[Android Apps and Games] woodman:
Why you guys go to apkmirror? If you want the latest test version, be sure to run v1.1.4b version from OP (devdb download tab) and then opt-in "Labs tester" in settings, you'll get a download popup to install via OTA latest v1.1.5.4b test build.
[Android Apps and Games] Eleo:
I believe it is only to show MinSDK in a screenshot. Though you can also see it in the install pop-out if you install using apk downloaded to /android/com.xda.labs folder
[Android Apps and Games] woodman:
Shyam Bairi has suggested to DOWNLOAD it from apkmirror not only to check minSDK, that's why I ask. :)

Hi. app don't recognize my device Xiaomi Mi Note 3. Just a small info. Keep up goodbye worki. Thank you.
[Android Apps and Games] woodman:
blk_jack,

About the post above I don't understand why I can't set the Xiaomi MI Note 3 manually from the My devices tab / search feature.

I can find the device through search plus FYI (check the 2 last screenshots attached)

I've checked everything, please see my screenshots, they speak for themselves.

A glitch somewhere?
[Android Apps and Games] Thebear j koss:
Are you using 1 of your themed, signed apps? If so you may get a parse error if signatures don't match. Would need to uninstall your themed app and install stock xda.
[Android Apps and Games] Shyam Bairi:
I always download apk files from official sources. So I usually like to follow the 2 step download procedure you stated.

But when I reinstall XDA Labs and there's no backup apk, I check out the OP's Download tab. Unfortunately there never exists the latest test version.

Here, we usually have extreme bandwidth issues. So going through the 2 times download process cost me much time and other issues.

Apkmirror comes at rescue. Afaik, apk files are officially uploaded by you guys. Atleast they are genuine apks.

And Yes, Apkmirror is also very useful in knowing minSDK before download.

I always update XDA Labs via OTA.:)
[Android Apps and Games] woodman:
Really not sure about this ^^^

I would be surprised at least.
[Android Apps and Games] Thebear j koss:
Lol. Come on, ya don't think Black Jack sends out apks to apk mirror? You know with all his free time he has in between building labs and forums? And Google will someday release a system wide dark theme for android...
[Android Apps and Games] woodman:
I don't think blk_jack does this of course, that's why I was doubtful. I semi thought maybe someone else at XDA. :p

Come on, you're damn right saying come on! :laugh:
[Android Apps and Games] woodman:
Using trello won't be my choice since it requires registration AFAIK.

But I've started working on this: https://github.com/Wood-Man/XDA-Labs-Issues-and-Suggestions/issues

What do you think of the idea of using GitHub and the result?

Note: I kept initial XDA issue number in the issue title for a better follow up.

I will continue to move them into GitHub if you guys think it's a good plan. :)
[Android Apps and Games] woodman:
I will have to find something on GitHub for suggested features as well.

Testing this: https://github.com/Wood-Man/XDA-Lab...es?q=is:issue+is:open+label:"Feature+request"
[Android Apps and Games] MrWasdennnoch:
You need to register to manage cards, you don't need to just to view them.

But GH issues also is a good solution. Just needs maybe some category tags ?
[Android Apps and Games] woodman:
Tags (labels) added to see how it looks like. :good:

Hmmm maybe I could put everything (issues and features requests) in the same "Issues" tab and choose "enhancement" or "feature request" label for the suggested features... I will have to think and work on it anyway :)
[Android Apps and Games] DB126:
Going to be the wet blanket in the room and say I probably wouldn't engage an external problem/request tracking system unless largely transparent from an XDA perspective. Nothing for/against GitHub, Google+, Trello, Telegram (ugh), Wiki whatever, etc. Only so much bandwidth to go around with far too many tools to juggle. That said, anything that makes life easier for the primary Labs custodians is probably the best choice (they get extra votes) as XDA proper is ill suited for this type of function.
[Android Apps and Games] woodman:
[MENTION=5488402]Davey126[/MENTION], I will wait more feedback before engaging more work, you are right. MrWasdennnoch's suggestion was valid and today I just wanted to test something new/else. :)
[Android Apps and Games] DB126:
I know the feeling! Many XDAers are natural 'problem solvers' (self included) and are quick to jump in with worthy solutions (guilty as charged). Fixing stuff is akin to digital crack for nerds. I certainly like the prototype you whipped up but fear it may not see widespread use for the reasons noted. Hope I'm wrong.
[Android Apps and Games] UFOZ24:
Thanks but I got it fixed I a using the stock labs and it was nuts that apk
[Android Apps and Games] blk_jack:
Hm weird. Looks like the search provider isn't tracking that device. I'll pass it along to one of the guys.
[Android Apps and Games] blk_jack:
[MENTION=4752536]Wood Man[/MENTION]

I checked w/ Dave and he wasn't sure why it hadn't been added as a device. It should be added now as a device for users: https://xdaforums.com/search?query=Xiaomi MI Note 3
[Android Apps and Games] woodman:
Thanks! I can confirm it's fixed, see my screenshots.

[MENTION=3337767]Qbax7[/MENTION], you should now be able to set your Xiaomi MI Note 3 in My Device section.
[Android Apps and Games] Qbax7:
[MENTION=4752536]Wood Man[/MENTION].

Mi Note 3 is able to set.

Thank you ?

"cant open file" trying to install sda-labs apk

install fails on azpen A1048 tablet (armeabi-v7a, android 5.1.1), which Id love to root and upgrade (for some noobie defn). I was hoping some of the apps hosted at sda-labs could help. I have enabled unknown sources in settings.

Separately, SDA app offers "help getting started? check out best threads & forum for your A1048", but hangs when I hit MY DEVICE button. There seems to be no forum for this device, maybe the search fails cuz of an non-existent forum ?
[Android Apps and Games] TheInfiniteAndroid:
Hey I'm on a LG G5, stock android 7.0, and I can't seem to post threads from the XDA labs app for some reason, I can reply in other people's threads fine, I just can't post my own, is this normal or something I'm doing wrong
[Android Apps and Games] strongst:
Maybe it's due to not enough posts you have and want to post in development threads.
[Android Apps and Games] TheInfiniteAndroid:
When I log in on my laptop and go on to XDA through chrome, I can start a thread from my account no problem
[Android Apps and Games] strongst:
Now you have above 10 posts ;)
[Android Apps and Games] shaggyskunk:
Yes - and the 10 post requirement to post on the Development Threads all too often unfortunately leads to the notion that Development Thread are Q&A ??
[Android Apps and Games] bariz143:
Can someone please provide ne with a download link? Must be to drunk or something. Searched everywhere haha

Never mind just found it and using it ?
[Android Apps and Games] IronTechmonkey:
Have you tried the "Download labs" link in OP3 of this thread (which happens to appear in most search results for "download labs";)).
[Android Apps and Games] Eleo:
A new update? Great!

But [MENTION=4752536]Wood Man[/MENTION], I remember there was a listed issue (couldnt find in present and fixed ones) about an image of 7000x4000... couldnt find the linked post with said issue mentioned in your post (now moved to github).
[Android Apps and Games] woodman:
You can't find it because it's not listed, anywhere.

Please read here to find the mentioned post: https://xdaforums.com/android/apps-games/labs-t3241866/post75874791
[Android Apps and Games] Eleo:
So the picture was too big to see (as seen on andy365's post) which made scrolling longer and laggy. But now it is not seen at all on XDA Labs. I suppose this is the fix, right?

When I downloaded image, it showed lower resolution (than that of mentioned 7000x3000). Is it because it is downloaded from XDA image cache or because it was scaled down by OP himself? Either way, now there is no image seen in XDA Labs on that OP. No idea if it is the fix or unexpected behavior. I waited long enough for image to appear. It was shown immediately when I switched to browser view though.

Quoting blk_jack:

This should be mentioned in any of the issues list here, right?
[Android Apps and Games] woodman:
The OP changed the pic resolution beforehand.

Edit: it's not an unexpected behaviour, sorry. The image in OP gives a 404 error

https://i.imgsafe.org/56593d8991.png

You can see it using a web browser because it's cached for the website IMO.

Hello I would like to request a feature to Add to xda labs because when I download a app 3/4 times it is not compatible and the feature would be in the info what api or android version that you need this would be a good feature
[Android Apps and Games] KaMyKaSii:
What is the XDA Labs update host? Here the download starts on the native Android download manager and shortly after it simply stops, although my connection is working perfectly. I always have this problem when updating Labs. I searched the first post for the download link to manually add on my favorite download manager (ADM) but the latest versions were not available. If the host has some connection limit, which causes problems with the simple native download manager, please consider change it

Possibly - but also occurs when adding a post that does not result in a new page.

[Android Apps and Games] DB126:
Ha - funny. :)

Not sure why it happens (multiple disparate devices; one XDA account)...nor do I really care as the workaround is effective. Bit annoying when you want to review or modify a recent post. If the anomaly ever elevates to the point of using more than a few brain cells I'll be sure to properly document. Of course, happy to help test/diagnose if a 'solution' is being pursued. Thinking we all have bigger fish to fry.

Is it possible in the future to add attachments such as TXT, zip, rar, mtz files? That way we don't have to switch to a PC?
[Android Apps and Games] woodman:
I don't know about rar and mtz but txt and zip work fine already.
[Android Apps and Games] Eleo:
You can put unsopported files into zipped folder or change their extension and attach.

For ex for init.d scripts that dont have an extension I either put them in zipped folder or change to txt.

Supported attachment extensions and their max allowed sizes can be seen here:
[Android Apps and Games] [] AL []:
This is with the PC; his question was with labs. As far as I remember, even txt don't work for me.
[Android Apps and Games] Eleo:
It should depend on size as I wrote on my previous post.

I hope it is clear.
[Android Apps and Games] [] AL []:
Ok thanks, my bad; I could have bet that I tried that with a fairly small text file a couple weeks ago and it didn't go through..
[Android Apps and Games] woodman:
Maybe it was not a dream because uploads sometimes don't work because it depends on the app/way you use to upload the file within XDA Labs. The "Open from" screen which appears when you use the upload button.

There is a mess up with Quote/Mentions from the app vs New Post Quotes from the site.

First, if I check only 1/5 Quote from the site menu, all other 4 quoted messages are pronaunced as read, too. There is no gradualy reading status, e.g. if I read 1/5 quote, than 4 others should have unread status also.

Secondly, if I check all my quotes from the app, they are still active on the site menu.
[Android Apps and Games] blk_jack:
That's a limitation of vbulletin and out of the scope of Labs.
[Android Apps and Games] x.trinity:
But still remans the problem with reading quotes in the app, they shouldnt be displayed on the site if they are already read in the app.
[Android Apps and Games] blk_jack:
Yeah that shouldn't happen. It doesn't happen for me so maybe some logs would halp.

You guys are killing me!! Sorry to every single moderator on every single forum, SORRY!!!!!!!
[Android Apps and Games] blk_jack:
I kind of love that a substantial number of mods are Labs users (we released Labs first exclusively to them), to the point where I've met some of them and even had dinner with some of them (hi Kenny!) and they are so graciously on board with the app and everything we're doing here.

Honestly between the users and the mods I love the sense of ownership, support and community we're fostering here. It really does inspire me to want to do my best to keep it up and make something we all gain benefit from, user or mod alike.

With beta so close I only want to keep it going and create something we can all be proud of.
[Android Apps and Games] nathanchance:
You are doing a fantastic job, the app just keeps getting better and better. I have not had a single issue with it but the ones I have seen others have had have been fixed in record time. I love seeing it develop and participating in the process. Makes it feel truly communal and I am glad we can rally behind it.
[Android Apps and Games] moriel5:
XDA Labs still looks like a hybrid between light and dark theme for me (I'm using the light theme), with status and navigation bar still black for me, and I still can't chage it. However, I have found the issue not to be in XDA Labs, I have the same issue in several apps, but with my ROM, (still no custom ROM for my Doogie X5 Pro, although I had found kernel sources that macth the CPU recently), the way that doogee tried forcing a dark theme to Lollipop causes this.

Somehow Nova Launcher manages to get around this (I use the circle animations, and they work perfectly), but nothing else does.
[Android Apps and Games] KennyG123:
Hello my friend! You are doing a fantastic job with this! I don't post much in here but I am stalking subscribed to this thread and reading all the great improvements and hard work you are putting into this!
[Android Apps and Games] coal686:
I know some people use the site like a help desk, but this is what XDA is supposed to be - a community of members helping each other develop. Developers put out their creations and members test and provide logs of issues so developers can fix them. Rinse and repeat so we all benefit. In the meantime, we make worldwide friends. I never thought I would ever talk daily to people halfway around the globe.

Of course we're human. At least that's what my father, Dr. Noonian Soong tells me. Now if you'll excuse me, my elbow is bothering me and needs to be oiled - just like all humans have to do.
[Android Apps and Games] MSF Jarvis:
You all ARE human, the word should have probably been 'casual'. This thread probably seems like a place for you guys to kinda de-stress yourselves after going through all the **** trolls and spammers post in here.

Yeah the sense of community support and help around this project reminds me of the XDA I joined years ago. This project is brilliant and you are doing an amazing job, thanks for reminding me how a community can work together.

A log would be helpful because sending posts is the main part of XDA labs and therefore it's working normally. You can also try uninstall/reinstall and logging out and in again.
