I do know we can often attach more than 1 file, otherwise I would have reproduced it way before today. I often upload files/pics with Labs without any issue... The new thing is that we've found at least 1 thread where we can reproduce the issue at 100% (the one posted in my issue report).

Edit: And we have full logs now.
[Android Apps and Games] woodman:
TBH I didn't remember your posts but I'm getting old :silly: and my kids are taking my free time a lot.

However without steps to reproduce and without full logs, your reports were unfortunately not enough I guess.

I hope this new report will help then :fingers-crossed:
[Android Apps and Games] Bajanman:
Imho you're the best labs log guy to me and the fastest to reply. (Personal opinion):silly:

I briefly looked over your log compared to the old one posted awhile back. This new log has a ton of info compared the the previous log. So hopefully blkjack can reproduce it and address it later.

Thx again log chopper. :)
[Android Apps and Games] woodman:
Thanks Bajanman!

I have some suggestions, which one do you prefer?

PS: this is for testing purposes, 5 pics uploaded :p
[Android Apps and Games] Bajanman:
#1 & #5 :highfive:
[Android Apps and Games] Eleo:
IMHO you are not getting old if your kids still can take your free time

;)
[Android Apps and Games] woodman:
Correct, I was semi joking but still *getting* old is a valid statement, we're all getting older everyday :D
[Android Apps and Games] woodman:
Added as issue #73, better late than never.:D

I've added it under Labs app issues because we don't know if it's app or backend related yet.
[Android Apps and Games] moriel5:
I like #2, it looks authoritive.
[Android Apps and Games] woodman:
I'll remind that, picture bookmarked for next round. :good:
[Android Apps and Games] Bajanman:
I liked #2 also but the picture quality was to blurry so the reason I didn't pick that one.

Maybe [MENTION=4752536]Wood Man[/MENTION] could find a better quality pic then use that in the next change. :good:
[Android Apps and Games] IronTechmonkey:
+1 for #2 which IMO is like a cross between an Ent (Lord Of The Rings) and Groot (Guardians Of The Galaxy) although as mentioned it could use some graphic treatment. Sorry for the OT but this is what happens when I cannot break the app.:silly:
[Android Apps and Games] woodman:
Thanks for the heads-up and for your opinion. :)

Don't worry, blk_jack likes OT. If the OP is OK, it's OK. :)

We can't break the app more than already done. We'll have to wait next release to martyrize blk_jack.

[Android Apps and Games] Eleo:
You can disable your own avatar and enable mail notification for each PM in XDA profile settings on desktop site.

If you check suggested features you can already see profile/avatar editor there.
[Android Apps and Games] RandyB201:
i would, most of like to have a search box my subscribed forums that would search that forum only
[Android Apps and Games] Eleo:
You can use correct keywords and use "search plus" in leftside menu.

Or use search icon on top right side to search in one thread.

Otherwise there is no "search in subscribed forums" or "search in participated forums" on desktop web version too that I know of

:eek:

If you don't use XDA Labs (see your byline), just don't bother posting here mate. :laugh:

Greetings, I wanted to report a "bug" (kinda) with the XDA Labs dev console but I couldn't find any other place where to;

I shared the app https://labs.xda-developers.com/store/app/com.lineageport.trebuchet some time ago, but uploaded the app with an incorrect signing key;

The dev console still wouldn't check for the keys to correspond, so I was able to upload a new apk with the correct one, but now that the key checking has been introduced, I am unable to upload new builds.

Tried removing all builds and reuploading, but I was only able to reupload the old version apk with incorrect key (and all reviews are gone )
[Android Apps and Games] majikmer:
I can't download or update any app through xda labs. I tap the download button and accept the app permissions and shortly after it displays "Error fetching data :(". Also, sometimes it says "network connectivity issue!" in the side menu. I'm using a oneplus 3t running resurrection remix android 7.1.2 rooted. I have recorded a Logcat while trying to download an app in labs. Hopefully it will help. Much thanks in advance.
[Android Apps and Games] woodman:
I don't think you use the -debug version of Labs since there's not a lot of info IRT Labs. Though I can see server errors in your logs:

If you don't use the debug version, please install v1.1.3.3b -debug and grab logs again if possible.

That said, nothing has changed recently in the app IRT downloading apps, so it can't be app-related.

Could be multiple things:

- A Download Manager issue (it has to be kept enabled),

- A PushService issue (don't freeze PushService !),

- A third-party app: Antirirus, ESET apps, Adguard, DNS66, NetGuard, etc.

Also here is something which could be helpful: http://xdaforums.com/android/apps-games/labs-t3241866/post66563644
[Android Apps and Games] majikmer:
Here's a screenshot of the about page. It seems to be the correct version. Download manager is not disabled. I'm not sure how to check the push service issue. And I don't believe a third party app is interfering. Should I try another Logcat?
[Android Apps and Games] Eleo:
Not "1.1.3.3b" but "1.1.3.3b-debug". Your app version does not have "debug" in it. You need to have it to be able to get verbose logging. Please download the debug version, install it, check it from app version and log again
[Android Apps and Games] majikmer:
Ok. I installed that version and recorded another log.

Getting app reports in google play console

I created a non-released XDA version of my app in the Google Play Console and was happy (or sort of sad) to find that the XDA only APK is successfully sending crash reports to the Google console.

It would be totally brilliant, if the full support of APK management (number of downloads, stats on when the downloads occurred etc) was in the XDA Labs system, but in the meantime, this is a workable way of getting feedback from crashes.
[Android Apps and Games] woodman:
About PushService, you just have to check if Labs PushService is running on your device in Android settings. But from what I can read in your logs, it's working normally.

Now, I'm pretty sure your problem is oauth authentication related. Do you often use XDA Labs or very rarely?

I think your problem come from expired access tokens, I mean if you don't use xda labs / forum portion for a long time, you can face this connectivity issue because your security tokens aren't refreshed before they exprire.

You can try this:

1- Log out and log back in (to hopefully reset your oauth information),

2- if it doesn't work, you can try to clear data/cache of Labs app, then log back in.

If this doesn't work, we can ping blk_jack for a better support. :D
[Android Apps and Games] majikmer:
I just tried both of those options. Still the same thing. I even changed my password using my desktop browser and changed my email, unlinked and relinked my Google account. Still the same thing.
[Android Apps and Games] woodman:
Did you try to login without G+ button? I mean the normal way?
[Android Apps and Games] majikmer:
Yes. When I try the G+ button it stalls on a green screen with a loading circle until I press the back button then it brings me into the app where the side menu says network connectivity issue. I've also tried logging in with username and password and it stalls on the login screen until I press the back button.
[Android Apps and Games] woodman:
OK thanks for the info, so my only hope is [MENTION=2637227]blk_jack[/MENTION], [MENTION=5136613]rwestergren[/MENTION] and [MENTION=450224]bitpushr[/MENTION]. Sorry for the pings guys :o, you'll find majikmer's logs in a previous post. :highfive:
[Android Apps and Games] blk_jack:
I can delete the old build or possibly reset the signing key to the old one. PM me if I can just nuke it
[Android Apps and Games] woodman:
This is not the first time you need to do such manual stuff and it takes your free time... Would it be dumb to think that apps devs who host in Labs would need to be able to nuke themselves old build in such case to avoid YOU to do it manually [MENTION=2637227]blk_jack[/MENTION]?
[Android Apps and Games] alesimula:
Just sent you a PM
[Android Apps and Games] blk_jack:
This looks like it's part of a bigger back end issue that I need to consult the other guys about. It's affecting quite a few people though. I'm going to reset a certain parameter for you though and message you when it's fixed.

Sorry about that!
[Android Apps and Games] majikmer:
Sounds good. Thank you!
[Android Apps and Games] Negan:
[MENTION=2637227]blk_jack[/MENTION] when you have time I'd like to send you an xml file to look over and hopefully implement into the labs/playstore app. The reason is to allow themes to be able to theme the xda app on LG devices. The xml does not impact the apps performance on non LG devices nor does it impact anything when using a theme or not using a theme. Basically the way LG implemented their theme system is like how Sony first did the rro system and also similar to the legacy tmobile theme engine. What is required is an xml called "overlay" be placed into the xml folder of whatever app you want to theme. the overlay xml consists of elements you want to "white list" to allow to be themed. so for example if I want to theme the statusbar color or a specific png, I'd have to note that in the overlay xml. The overlay xml is ignored by the actual app when running on any device at all times. Because of the theme system LG has it searches for the overlay.xml in every app it runs and if it sees this it tells the system then it knows it can run an overlay over top of it. If you aren't running a theme or are using a non LG device you wouldn't even know the file is there and there's no impact on size, lag or anything due to the xml. It basically just makes the app "theme ready".

So hopefully everything I've said makes sense and if you'd like to discuss further or in private that can certainly be arranged. In the meantime I've just modifed the existing xda app and added my overlay.xml to it and asked users to install this so that the themes they use will apply to xda as well. I felt that it would be best to reach out to you directly and see if this would be something you'd consider adding so it could be officially supported. Let me know when you have time. No rush on it.

[Android Apps and Games] blk_jack:
Hey Mark, sounds interesting. Hit me up on telegram (or join the Labs/Feed chan) so we can chat about it more.
[Android Apps and Games] coal686:

[MENTION=4752536]Wood Man[/MENTION] I updated the OP 'Known Issues' list to reflect this but some users may not be able to login after they've had their XDA account names changed.

This is a very specific use case where the user has reached out to say [MENTION=335322]MikeChannon[/MENTION] and had him change their name manually. In those instances they also need to send me a PM to get me to fix it in Labs. I'll be looking into a better work around, and even a better error message since I'm not sure if it really shows up in Labs, but in the meantime they should reach out to me via a PM.

This is actually what happened with [MENTION=4597714]majikmer[/MENTION] and it led me down a rabbit hole where I saw logs where various other users were causing the backend to throw this error. I've updated about 10 of them manually and will be eyeing the logs over this weekend.
[Android Apps and Games] woodman:
Thanks [MENTION=2637227]blk_jack[/MENTION]! Maybe you should add the "some users may not be able to login..." part in your new item of known issues list to explain WHY they have to request their username change also to you to use labs?
[Android Apps and Games] majikmer:
Everything is working great now. Thanks [MENTION=4752536]Wood Man[/MENTION] and [MENTION=2637227]blk_jack[/MENTION] for the support.
[Android Apps and Games] MikeChannon:
Hi [MENTION=2637227]blk_jack[/MENTION]

We get multiple name change requests per day. Could be anywhere from 5 to 30 or 35 to over 200 per week!!

So a coding solution would be a priority.

In most cases we email the person to confirm the name change has been done. We can add something in the standard email for LABs users to contact you but what is the best way to do that? I'll have to assume it's by email because if they only use LABs and can't log in then PMs would be useless.

Let me know by PM.

Mike
[Android Apps and Games] blk_jack:
Thanks Mike. For now it's fine, I'm gonna look into a programmatic solution. Had no idea it was that many!

Thanks for letting me know
[Android Apps and Games] woodman:
I did some archeology :)

1- I changed my username on october 2016: https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=69020175&postcount=5883

2- Hehe, 5 posts later, I have the connectivity issue with Labs: https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=69024654&postcount=5888 :laugh:

3- Again, 19 posts later, I'm wondering if it could be related to my username change: https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=69036444&postcount=5907

4- blk_jack's reply, it was backend related: https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=69036667&postcount=5909

It's even more crystal clear now :)
[Android Apps and Games] blk_jack:
I should clarify that awhile back I did actually fix the issue where if a user changed their name it would error. The new issue was when a user had 2 separate accounts (say they had an older one and clicked the Google sign-up and chose a new username without realizing). That in itself was fine since it was 2 separate accounts, but a number of users would have one of the accounts deleted and the other account renamed, which was causing the conflict in Labs' backend.

Anyway I just deployed a fix that should prevent this from being an issue going forward. :good:
[Android Apps and Games] TeddyBeers:
It would be great if there would be option to add additional device under "my device" as most of has own few of them.

Apart from that this is a great app. :good:

It's about one milion times faster than browsing xda through chrome, even on top spec smartphone.
[Android Apps and Games] Eleo:
You can choose different device on each of your phone, cant you? There is a gear button from where you can change device. On s8 choose s8 device, on s5 choose s5 device. Did I understand it wrong? Or you want to have all your devices selectable on one app on one device?

About xda mobile site,

I tried XDA Ad-free, and the mobile browsing has gone both smoother and faster. Otherwise I needed to wait for ad to load each time, because if I dont wait for it and click to screen, it will register a button below that point (ad moves the page) and instead of edting your post (i.e. to add attachments after posting) or reporting last post, I mostly got subscribed/unsubscribed from thread or was moved to "write new post" page (as shown in attachments). Browsing is also slower with ads (because of loading of ads probably). I know ads are not related to this thread per se, but just provided my opinion.

:D

After moving to Ad-free these events stopped.

But yes, with XDA-Labs browsing is still faster.
[Android Apps and Games] TheMadScientist:
Hey Eleo I notice you mention a S8 first Did you by chance upgrade to a new device?
[Android Apps and Games] Eleo:
:D

No. I switched "my device" long time ago when I had "sent from my S8 using XDA Labs". Then I never touched "my device" menu and I restored XDA Labs usg TB after each new ROM flash. Thus it restored "my device" as S8 each time I restored app.

So, yes. I am still on N9005. And still with NXTeam and Aspire Team

For the record, I and mainly [MENTION=2637227]blk_jack[/MENTION] have to blame Samsung. The Custom ROM I use is not the culprit since with all stock, the white icons on white action bar issue also happens.

Btw, could we please have more feedback about this issue ? Does it happen for orher Samsung users with Touchwiz ? Or any other phones ?

The huge header on top, plus the keyboard below with the extra tall "signature+Emoji+send" bar , hardly leave any space to compose a post. :)

I often end up composing on a notepad and pasting.

An option to pull the header up, temporarily, would be REAL nice! :)

So would a shorter bar, or alternative floating button.

Quick question:

May I know why is this thingie pretending to gain root privileges on my device? :confused:

Of course I (still) don't know what is that xposed stuff but, to me, it just sounds stupidly retarded having to provide this app such a level of potential mockery just to be able to check out these modules/apps or whatever. :silly:

May someone explain?

Cheers

Neither Crapatalk nor any other crapware were used to send this.
[Android Apps and Games] Manuel15:
You can also deny the root permission if you want, the app doesn't need root permission to view the xposed modules online, just to install them (and maybe to see the modules installed on the phone)

So if you don't need to use the app to install the xposed modules, just deny.

Don't worry anyway, the app is SAFE.
[Android Apps and Games] NYLimited:
I'm no longer using xposed so I don't have any interest in looking at the modules. This app does not have root permission on my device and works just fine for what I do with it.

[Android Apps and Games] moriel5:
It's an open-source alternative Google Play Services, being developed here in XDA by the developer Martin.

I saw the thread before the app appeared in the XDA app.

Edit: Sorry it's marvin.
[Android Apps and Games] Portgas D. Ace:
The developer's name is Marvin, not Martin. Anyone interested in microG can have a look here.
[Android Apps and Games] SecUpwN:
No. Why do you mean to make this so difficult, [MENTION=2637227]blk_jack[/MENTION]? I meant that you guys should simply provide a way for developers to sign in with their XDA or GitHub account and add their app link from GitHub and F-Droid, which should then in turn neatly show up in the XDA Labs app itself. This way, Android enthusiasts like me would automatically give a star to the app source repository on GitHub and install it by simply clicking on the F-Droid button linked in the XDA Labs app. Easy!

Everyone was a user at one time. One of the main Issues XDA has, is that it makes people LAZY. In my eyes, XDA does too little effort to promote open source, which when done correctly would encourage people to leave GooglePlay, use F-Droid instead and join GitHub to help apps get better, learn coding themselves and feel the joy the comes with an accepted pull request. Promote open source, feature apps that are being developed on GitHub and installable via F-Droid you will see that new developers will grow like seeds in the soil. :cowboy:

Please make sure to give special attention to the promotion of open source apps as mentioned above. Encouraging developers to make their app open source on GitHub not only ensures a longer lifetime of an app due to steady development, but also makes people use more secure FOSS apps from F-Droid much more.

Yes, I know that XDA Labs does not yet have that meany features yet - and I accept that while in alpha stage. For me, peronally, I cannot make use of it since it does not feature adding a GitHub and F-Droid link with two neat buttons and a header graphic for people to have a glance at open source projects. Time will tell if XDA Labs is a good thing for developers to join - you really should add the things I mentioned in order to improve the whole experience.

I will. But why don't you open source it on GitHub as well for faster development?
