Yesterday I have already sent the logcat via pm to blk_jack.

PS: https://www.zerobin.net/ seems safer for privacy since it is encrypted and you can set time limit.
[Android Apps and Games] MrWasdennnoch:
[MENTION=6552280]MSF Jarvis[/MENTION] I think the logcat command should be more like this:

adb logcat -v time -s retrofit:V OAUTH:V > logcat.txt

-c would clear the log and end the command when the end of the log is reached, so everything after this won't be saved to the file.

-v indicates how the log should be formatted (time looks the prettiest)

-s sets the log to silent so that only the specified tags/levels get logged

- tag and level are separated with a ":"

- Don't know if * works for levels, but it's the same as setting Verbose as the level which logs every level. Such level. Many good.

Correct me if I'm mistaken, but according to the Android Developers page it should look like this ^^
[Android Apps and Games] ogisha:
Hello,

I have one suggestion.

Could you please make the top left hamburger menu button to turn into back button (arrow back) when you enter the forum.

It makes navigation much easier and faster especially on tablets.

Thank you.
[Android Apps and Games] MSF Jarvis:
Thanks [MENTION=7083389]MrWasdennnoch[/MENTION], I've corrected the commands :o
[Android Apps and Games] woodman:
Points a and b added in my list of issues HERE. Waiting for the red wizard for some more analysis :)

Point c was already in my list ("# [July 23th 2016] The device detection in "My device" section doesn't work correctly for some device models")
[Android Apps and Games] superGOAT:
I think it's pretty clear the login/download issues spring from a 500 server error at labs.xda-developers.com. Logcat ouputs the same server error you'll receive if you try and log in from a desktop browser.

This error can only be resolved by fixes to the Web server software. It is not a client-side problem. It is up to the operators of the Web server site to locate and analyse the logs which should give further information about the error.

Why's there 1.0.6.3b in your 'list of issues with 1.0.8b?' [MENTION=4752536]FLooDW[/MENTION]
[Android Apps and Games] woodman:
It's a kind of mark to remember when versions have been released. But I realize it's confusing. I'm gonna delete them.

[Android Apps and Games] SalarX:
Guys I have a question for you all having the login issue...

1.Are you facing issue with normal login or just Google login?

2.Are you using any custom rom with recent open gapps package?

I asked this because I've heard people facing issues like contact sync not working, etc. when using open gapps package, so I guess if you use Google login, it could be some fault of open gapps.
[Android Apps and Games] MSF Jarvis:
Yes, I noticed that. My post was more of the "Here, these bugs are somehow happening for many people, here's the best you can do from your side to help us" rather than an actual bug list. I lack the awesome for that :D
[Android Apps and Games] MSF Jarvis:
It will create confusion for most users who're used to it opening the navigation drawer, if it can be made configurable through settings AND not made default, then it may be a good enhancement.

Yes, I have also noted these error codes in my post here : http://xdaforums.com/android/apps-games/labs-t3241866/post67954124
[Android Apps and Games] MSF Jarvis:
That's an interesting observation right there. My current gapps package is from 20160619, which may explain why I can't reproduce this, if Gapps is the issue. I'll clean flash with today's OpenGapps package and see what happens.

Edit 1: Google Login worked for me again with my current GApps package.
[Android Apps and Games] woodman:
It still could be gapps related but maybe the culprit is not today's package but another old one...

2 options:

1- You'll have to test them all from 7 or 14 last days!! Good luck MSF Jarvis! Haha ! :laugh: :p

2- We have to wait for users' answer regarding SalarX's question (about the users who have login / download issues).
[Android Apps and Games] MSF Jarvis:
Couple of things to be noted

a. God exists and he's a Labs user, OpenGapps downloads were super fast today :p

b. I had no login issues with my old GApps

c. I installed 20160731 package and had no issues in adding back my Google account(removed by hand) and also in signing in to Labs with Google sign in.

d. Edit : Another lesson learnt, I SERIOUSLY need to enable Dexpreopt on my DirtyUnicorns builds :p that optimising dirtying apps screen takes forever

My only deduction is that it's an issue with only the backend, because the server has been curiously returning HTTP error codes much much frequently than anytime before that I've done logging on Labs. Once the Labs source is published I'm going to give it a couple of weekends and try migrating it to a better networking library from afollestad, called bridge.
[Android Apps and Games] nathanchance:
I actually laughed out loud at this statement :silly:
[Android Apps and Games] MSF Jarvis:
Well since GitHub's hosted on Amazon's AWS US East bucket which gives 's-word' speeds in Asia(India) I had to thank someone :p:D
[Android Apps and Games] moriel5:
Speeds were also abnormal in my country until recently.

We have a 30Mbt/s plan (we pay for 40, however we live in an area that our government despises the countrymen who live there, so they keep on making false promises. In this case, they've been preventing the ISP's from upgrading their infrastructures here, for over 5 years already.), and speeds were around 30-100 KB/s.

Now they're at their proper speeds of 2.5-3.3MB/s

And this makes a huge deal when you use the AUR on Arch Linux.
[Android Apps and Games] superGOAT:
Ok, so after multiple Gapps packages and even the OTA image I'm positive it isn't Gapps. With that said, I can't get logged in to labs from anywhere (500 server error), chrome, IE, chrome mobile, even safari. I'm curious if it maybe has to do with my Google account being connected to my xda account. Later today I'll try disconnecting it to see if that lets me login to labs.
[Android Apps and Games] SalarX:
You created account on XDA via Google Login only?
[Android Apps and Games] superGOAT:
No, this account was around before you could do that, but it was "associated" with my Google account. I have unassociated it and still have no lucking logging in to labs.xda-developers.com (500 server error). I'm going to make a fresh xda account and see if that works. I'll update this post shortly.
[Android Apps and Games] SalarX:
Hmmm I tried that too... But just like it didn't solve your login problem, it didn't cause any problem with my account. (I'm one of those who don't have this problem :( )

When was your account created actually?
[Android Apps and Games] superGOAT:
No luck with a second account.

Here is what I'm thinking, when you login to labs.xda-developers.com for the first time you should see a prompt asking if you want to authorize(?) for use with your xda account then it takes you to the labs dashboard. Some recent change to labs.xda-developers.com has prevented anyone who has not previously authorized labs to get the 500 server error. (THIS IS A GUESS)

I made this account back when I bought a G1 so it's probably 9 years old by now.
[Android Apps and Games] SalarX:
I don't think so...

I logged in to Labs Web Console for first time (it asked me if I want to authorize it) and then everything went without any problem.

Normal login with not-so-recent Gapps over Dirty Unicorns 10.4. I have no problems with Contacts Sync, those appeared on versions newer than mine.

[Android Apps and Games] SalarX:

[Android Apps and Games] woodman:
Yes, it's a known issue, please check issue #13 HERE :)

[Android Apps and Games] SalarX:
Haha could you please edit your quoted reply to match my edited reply :o

XDA should update quoted replies when original one is edited.

Due to this limitation, anyone can produce a quoted reply of something other user didn't even say, and this is just unfair :rolleyes:
[Android Apps and Games] PalmCentro:
Fair point. But usually when I quote I don't want to quote the entire OP... (I hate when people kill threads by quoting huge posts)

So I guess it's better that it should stay this way...
[Android Apps and Games] woodman:

[Android Apps and Games] zotoro123:
Hi I'm back again, I still haven't really understood using adb but I can upload screenshots through the app now so you can get a better idea. Hope this helps.

I am not able to connect to xda labs through my mobile when my mobile data connection is ON. However, I am able to connect it through WIFI.......any solutions?
[Android Apps and Games] woodman:
You don't provide enough info. Your post doesn't include any error messages, screenshots, logs, or other useful info.

However, what happens if you try to connect with your account to xda-developers website through a web browser with your phone with mobile data ON? Does it work?

Are you sure your mobile data connection is good enough?
[Android Apps and Games] antanisv:
Yes, I know I should have provided screenshots. I have attached them now. My device is Asus Zenfone 5 A501CG. The thing is I was able to connect to xda labs through my mobile until the app was updated to the latest version. After this update, I am able to connect to xda labs through mobile with WIFI only and NOT with phone mobile data ON. Yes, my mobile data connection is good enough and I am able to connect to all other net based activities.

If you go through the sceenshot, you would notice that my device is connected to internet correctly but still the message "network connectivity issues" appears..............
[Android Apps and Games] antanisv:
One more thing here, when I try to connect with my account to xda-developers website through web browser with my phone mobile data ON, YES, I am able to connect to the xda site.
[Android Apps and Games] woodman:
Now, can you please uninstall XDA LABS and install the previous version you talked about ? The version which worked before with mobile data? Please let us know if it's better.

I really think we're facing a backend issue, but what is weird is that it's not for all users...
[Android Apps and Games] fjuniper:
Home screen icon

I am possibly a bit late, but I updated to 1.0.8b yesterday. The icon seems to be really pale and cheap looking. I happen to have a screenshot from May, and it looked much better, had better transparency. Can we have the old icon back please? Good image first, worse image second.
[Android Apps and Games] woodman:
[MENTION=7619449]zotoro123[/MENTION], did you test XDA Labs with WifI connection? If yes, does it work better than with mobile data?
[MENTION=5006695]antanisv[/MENTION] quoted below seems to have the same problem (like other users on the few pages back)...

---------- Post added at 10:13 ---------- Previous post was at 10:06 ----------

The first screenshot doesn't show the previous icon of XDA Labs(forum icon)! It looks like the XDA app (free or premium) icon! It's not the same app.
[Android Apps and Games] antanisv:
As suggested, I have uninstalled the latest version 1.0.8b and have installed a previous version 1.0.7.1b, and as you can see in the attached screenshot, I am ABLE to connect to xda labs app through my mobile with mobile data ON (H+ signal). I am sure this would be helpful to you in identifying the issue.
[Android Apps and Games] woodman:
OK, good. It would be even better if you could take logs of the connectivity issue with 1.0.8b DEBUG version for blk_jack.

Btw in your previous screenshot of v1.0.8b, I saw you were on EDGE, maybe it could explain the connectivity issue?

Now with your latest screenshot of v1.0.7.1b, it's H+...
[Android Apps and Games] antanisv:
OK. But you will need to explain me as to how to take logs of connectivity issue in 1.0.8.b........:confused:

Actually what happens is, within our office premises, we rarely get H+, generally it is EDGE only..........as soon as I move out of office premise, I am back to H+ and that's exactly what has happened here. Nevertheless, I have the same problem even at my house where I am constantly getting H+.
[Android Apps and Games] woodman:
You have to install 1.0.8b debug version of XDA Labs, take logs while reproducing the issue: start logs record (check links below), then launch XDA Labs app, see the connectivity error, try to naviguate in the app a bit and stop record. Then, share the logs.

Please read this below:

Quoted from OP #2:

Q: I found a bug! Fix it!

Yea yea, sure sure. First, if possible, download the latest debug build. Second, recreate your issue while capturing a log using logcat. Third, post a brief description of how to re-create your issue, with your device information and the log attached. It's that easy! EDIT: This has been roughly outlined in this post. Feel free to use it as a guide but do not ask support related questions on adb or how to capture logs.

[Android Apps and Games] SalarX:
Probably your icon pack is causing the issue
[Android Apps and Games] antanisv:
OK, will try to do that though it sounds a bit difficult.........:confused:
[Android Apps and Games] fjuniper:
[/COLOR]

Apologies, you are right of course - I obviously went too far back.

I remember now - the previous icon for the Labs app was just an orange circle with pale XDA in the middle. I was on 1.0.6b before.

That grey background that I have is really ugly though - unlike the rest of the Labs app; I love it!

I don't know what you mean - I have never installed any kind of icon pack (other than some individual icons in the Nova dock), I just stick with what the app provides.
[Android Apps and Games] SalarX:
Is that the icon for forums or Labs?

Can you please check if the results are same in some other launcher? (adw or any stock)
[Android Apps and Games] fjuniper:
It is the icon for Forums, which I use more than the rest of Labs (if I want Labs, I just go there from Forums menu).

It looks exactly the same in another launcher. Orange 'xda' with transparent background is my preference...

[Android Apps and Games] antanisv:
OK.......there's a miracle here..........I re-installed 1.0.8b and I am now able to connect xda lab app through mobile..............I don't know what exactly could be the reason for this................uninstalling and then reinstalling would have solved the issue for now?

Anyways, it appears that the problem is resolved for the time being...........I will revert back as and when I get similar error in future.............

I am extremely thankful to you for your valued support..........But this entire thing is quite surprising, isn't it? I could even connect xda labs with EDGE..............
[Android Apps and Games] MSF Jarvis:
Long press any post near the author name and you'll see a copy text button pop up on the action bar (or is it a toolbar?). The issue with portal posts has been raised earlier (of course I wasn't able to find that post, there's just so much in-thread search can fix :D )
[Android Apps and Games] ibrokemypie:
no way to select text normally/selectively?
[Android Apps and Games] MSF Jarvis:
Erm, what's the issue with this approach? This way you can also grab the BBCode if you want AND it also prevents irritating accidental selection. I'm cool with that.
[Android Apps and Games] MrWasdennnoch:
The Toolbar, formerly known as Action Bar. There isn't a big difference, the Action Bar that was fixed at the top got replaced with a flexible Toolbar that you can stuff everywhere, but they solve the same purpose ;)

---------- Post added at 12:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:59 AM ----------

When you click on the copy button a dialog opens where you have the whole post and can copy the parts you want.

Btw, a function to add a post to the previous one would be nice to prevent double - posts :)

EDIT: lol I never had that before. nvm then xD
[Android Apps and Games] ibrokemypie:
just a bit confusing, didnt realise that was possible till now, and the difference from other apps adds to the confusion. is an option for selectable text by default a possibility?
[Android Apps and Games] MSF Jarvis:
Not at the moment, blk_jack is on vacation so I can't comment further. It's his call
[Android Apps and Games] Hinoy:
What i see client side

I won't be able to provide logs

right now

but here's what i know regarding the login issue :

-Google Auth : Stuck on a green screen with a loading animation. Tried to wait 10min, didn t do much. But if i press the back button it looks like i am logged in except i can't do anything because i get a "Network connectivity issue" (Fyi the contacts thing worked for google auth, it just loops after verifying info)

-"Basic" login : (Changed my password and removed google account) Stuck on "Sending.."

Running a custom rom on a CM13 variation with a month old GApps.

Hope this can help in a way even if it's not much (I know it server sided but still wished to tell you what i experienced)
[Android Apps and Games] woodman:
Just FYI, please read here: http://xdaforums.com/android/apps-games/labs-t3241866/post66735986

If you want selectable text directly in the timeline (thread view), blk_jack will have to think again the whole thing. If he opted for a workaround, I guess he didn't find a real fix.

That said, it's just my point of view but I really enjoy this way to select and copy text: http://xdaforums.com/android/apps-games/labs-t3241866/post67331652
[Android Apps and Games] MSF Jarvis:
This feels like a deliberate choice, not a workaround. And a good choice at that.

[Android Apps and Games] woodman:
A workaround can be a "deliberate choice". blk_jack said himself there is an Android bug ("linkable text mismatch situation") he had to get rid by implementing this copy text dialog.

Anyway, at that time he didn't contradict me when I wrote "workaround": http://xdaforums.com/android/apps-games/labs-t3241866/post67332896

But you are right, it's a good choice.
[Android Apps and Games] knpk13:
Yes, I like this implementation too, because as [MENTION=6552280]MSF Jarvis[/MENTION] said, you can see and copy the code behind the post.
[Android Apps and Games] jozix12:

[Android Apps and Games] zotoro123:
Strange, it shows me that I posted two screenshots and both of them include error messages, maybe another problem with posting? Anyways, the xda website works perfectly, it is just the xda labs app that I have problems with.
[Android Apps and Games] woodman:
I don't understand.

Which screenshots? Which error messages?
[Android Apps and Games] MrWasdennnoch:
I think he means these: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=68004497&postcount=4738

Although these "error messages" aren't helpful at all, some logs would be nice.
[Android Apps and Games] knpk13:
I don't think this is a bug. But it is an unwanted behaviour.

When a post is being created and the creating dialog appears, if you click on the recents button and switch to the app, the dialog closes. If I click on the arrow again to create a post, it creates 2 posts instead of one. It happened by mistake, but I was able to reproduce this again even with 3 identical (triplicate?) posts.

I guess the fix is to simply not go to the recents view while a post is being created. But I thought the expected behavior would be the post gets created in the background and the dialog closes and i get a toast message saying successful post, instead of this behavior.

I had the same network connectivity issue for a few hours.(both mobile data and wifi) The app was unusable but my internet connection was working. But it got fixed after a few hours. Probably a temporary server load or backend issue or something..

I wish I could provide logs, but logcat doesn't work on samsung galaxy s7 without root. I tried to use adb but I do not understand it. But thanks for providing a link for Flood to the posts that had the screenshots. :good: :good:

Have you tried this tutorial for the logcat: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1726238

Or alternatively my own that I accidentally gave the same title: http://wasdennnoch.tk/android/how-to-logcat/ :p
[Android Apps and Games] woodman:
Even without using the recent button, we currently have duplicate posts issues, like stated HERE. So, you maybe cumulate here the "dialog closing" in addition of the current and temporary backend issue.

I think the post is really sent when you hit the arrow, the pop-up dialog is maybe just here in order to wait the server response...

In addition, those last days I also had timouts (502 bad gateway error) issue after posting with XDA website through a browser, so...
