I was trying to help?

I was making a comment. The download reliability sucks. If I was trying to help I would at least stated some symptoms of the bug, how it happened, how it can be done, or figured out how to log etc... But did I? No, because it's not that important. There's other ways to download this stuff.

Geez your ego
[Android Apps and Games] Trafalgar Square:
Sorry, but that's your problem if your internet speed is slow.

Downloads are fast. Downloaded 70 MB within 20 seconds. And if you want a faster download speed, pay the servers.

XDA is paying the servers

for you

. I wouldn't complain, if something is free.

You tried to help, but you can't help if you don't give logs. Maybe the serves are stressed out at the moment. You're not forced to download your Apps via XDA Labs, you can use PlayStore too.

Kind regards

Regarding the in-thread search, in addition of the endless scrolling (as you said coming in near future), it should be very good and useful to see the results ordered by date (more recent posts on top). It's currently not ordered by date (by what actually?)

[Android Apps and Games] woodman:
Sir nathanchance already handled your previous post and I should shut up.... but... if "it's not that important" for you, why are you commenting/complaining with such bad manner? What do you think we'll answer?

I use this app and follow the dev from day 1 and I've nerver experienced bad downloads at all.

BTW, did you disable PushService by any chance ?

If you didn't even intend to help it makes no sense to post here. Also this seems to be an issue with your network connection, so you should complain about your APN and not the app.
[Android Apps and Games] Ry5ter:
Hi all. Just discovered this app and it's pretty nice. I'm having a problem though. The menu in the app keeps popping up with network connectivity issue, and when I try to download an app the details keep disappearing with an error (but hitting the reload button brings them back) and the app stays with the downloading animation forever, never actually downloading or installing.

I don't believe it's something at my end as everything else on my phone is fine, but I stand ready to be corrected. Any ideas please? Really want to grab cortana for my Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge before its official release in the UK.

Thanks.

I guess nobody uses the light theme. :confused:
[Android Apps and Games] moriel5:
I do, but I don't use the rating system at all, so I never notice it.
[Android Apps and Games] woodman:
I think some guys use it (I've seen bunch of screenshots with white theme on xda). But something which is not visible or missing is something often hard to know. You SalarX did it! Congrats! We need you, take care and save your life! :p
[Android Apps and Games] SalarX:
Oh I forgot to mention, the problem only exists in list view, other two views (grid view, icon view, I don't know what to call them) show rating on light theme just fine...

One more thing I noticed -

When you have APPS WITH UPDATES and you click ALL APPS, there's no option to show again APPS WITH UPDATES. All you see is the option to toggle between ALL APPS and FILTER INSTALLED.

NOTICE - You have to click on Apps/Xposed Updates from menu again to show apps with updates.

EDIT - I don't use Xposed but I think same problem will be with Xposed tab too, and when you have both, app with updates and modules with updates, it'll be more difficult to show 'updates only'.

[Android Apps and Games] blk_jack:
Thanks for the log! Unfortunately, like [MENTION=4752536]FLooDW[/MENTION] mentioned, it's an Android bug that only affects certain people (running certain versions of Android). The fix in 0.59a wasn't for that issue, it was for another issue. In order to get around the bug, we need to change the way Labs downloads apks since our hands are tied when we use Android's native DownloadManager.

Like it says in the OP though it's in the cards and we do plan on fixing/addressing it. In the meantime, sorry!

Fantastic app guys, a real good one after what I can only call a disaster (The original XDA Premium app). Maybe we can take back the share from Tapatalk.

P.S. Ironic, considering that I am writing this over Tapatalk. But the app only works for 4.4+ and my HTC D616 is stuck with 4.2.2

[Android Apps and Games] 1619415:
Cool concept, its just very laggy on my Samsung s6 when connected to WiFi but works fine on mobile data
[Android Apps and Games] NYLimited:
I have tried several forum apps and none work well. They are all adequate I suppose and Tapatalk still has the largest feature set but it is much too unreliable a company. Yes, I think a good, reliable forum app would be fantastic (even if it only reads XDA). :)

Indeed, I use this all the time. I subscribe to (possibly too) many topics, some only to keep up with info. When I don't have enough time to read all I can opt to mark a less important forum read in entirety with Tapatalk. This feature would be nice to have.

What other readers, such as Tapatalk, have been missing for ever is the ability to see XDA (not Tapatalk) signatures. When we use a reader often must ask what device or ROM one is using even though it is in their XDA signature. The ability to see real signatures would be a much welcomed feature!
[Android Apps and Games] NYLimited:

I quoted someone and started to reply but realized that keyboard takes up a lot of screen real-estate in portrait mode.

I don't get why there are these GroovyAPK apps..... Basically just versions of apps that are already available via app stores elsewhere. Facebook and Hangouts are just two examples. Even the actual Google PlayStore.

What I mean is, I think there should be just a selection of .apk's that have their roots with XDA. The developers who originally host their work at XDA... Highlighting the works of within the community. You have apkmirror or the actual app stores to get the official apps from everybody else. But the xposed modules and apps that aren't allowed in the app stores should be the focus, rather than something like Facebook, from some unknown GroovyAPK uploader, kind of confusing what the focus of the available apps is.

I'd also like to endorse Team Black Out and their clear/black themed versions of the Google apps (as well as others)... And their TBO app.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=41545802

Think they should be contacted to see if they'd like their evolving app to be available in XDA Labs.
[Android Apps and Games] DocteurN:
Good work! Bravo ;)

A quick question : is there a way to mark a subscribed Forum as read?
[Android Apps and Games] colonelpanic42:
Is there, or will there be a way, to exclude some apps from being updated by XDA Labs? I have Facebook Messenger installed from the Play Store, but because a beta channel version is made available on Labs it keeps bugging me to update it. I don't want to disable Labs from making notifications because of other apps I legitimately want kept updated, and I don't want to update my Messenger app outside the Play Store.

On a slight tangent, does anyone else have an issue logging in to XDA through mobile browsers? Clicking Login just takes me to a "What device do you want" page, and hitting Reply on a thread took me to a registration page with a non-functional "Already a member" link. Thanks XDA Labs for giving me an alternative route to post to the forums.
[Android Apps and Games] sapnesh:

True that. Showcasing xda community driven apps and xposed modules should be the main goal of xda labs appstore.

I've seen a lot of community apps (especially xposed modules) which went out of development because after some time they lost user feedback and became invisible in the vast sea i.e Internet. There just wasn't much exposure and publicity to these apps and modules from people other than geeks .

I believe showcasing xda apps will get the apps more feedback and even encourage the devs to keep their spirits and motivations up thus bringing us more quality apps from xda.

But then this is just my humble opinion. ☺

P.S : team blackout pure black apps are awesome.
[Android Apps and Games] nitishp7890:

[Android Apps and Games] moriel5:
LOL, XDA Labs updated VLC to the TV version, which interestingly, has the same exact signature, and works.

Had to download the correct version from APKMirror.

Now XDA Labs claims that there's an update to VLC, although they're both the same exact version (1.7.2).

But the first post which contained this keyword did not show up in the search results while other posts did.

First of all, I'd like to thank all Devs involved in this project. The app is great.

I've noticed that update notifications for the xda labs specifically doesn't respect interruption settings on LP.

Mine is set to not show any notifications from 22:00 to 07:00, but whenever there is a notification update between those hours I end up waking up.

Just would like to let you know because I haven't found anything about that on the thread.

Thx in advance.

I installed the 1.6 xda labs and experienced a network problem where I could not download or update any of the applications, so I upgraded it to 1.7 (not specific towards the exact versions), and the same thing still happens. It tells me that there is a network connectivity issue, but when I refresh it goes away (although the problem still exists with the downloading and updating). I updated it to the beta 1.8 version (again, not specific), and the same thing keeps happening. I have a strong wifi connection so that wouldn't be it. It won't let me upload a screenshot to show exactly what happened. Any suggestions? :confused:

[Android Apps and Games] zotoro123:
Sorry if I wasn't as clear as I should've been. I am running 1.0.8b DEBUG version and I am still having the same problems. I am on a samsung galaxy s7, and in order to use logcat it said I needed the root for my device. Are there any other logcats that do not need a root to accurately display the issues within the app? And as far as screenshots, I had said before that the app wouldn't let me share the screenshots, it said it was another network connection error, so as of now, I can't really do anything but explain to you what is happening. I wish I could, but I can't.
[Android Apps and Games] woodman:
You can use adb. Please follow Trafalgar Square's recent post here: http://xdaforums.com/android/apps-games/labs-t3241866/post67922174

To upload screenshots, you can use regular XDA website through a web browser.

Also about the problem of uploading screenshots within Labs and maybe also download issues, you should try this:

1- be sure all storage perms are set for XDA labs, DownloadManger (if perm available) and PackageInstaller (if perm available)

2- Be sure PushService is not disabled

3- Then wipe cache of XDA Labs, force close the app and restart it. Note 1: your avatar in Navdrawer will be missing (because of cache wipe of the app) . You'll have to log off and log in again to see it again.

4- Retry screenshot uploads and also apps downloads to see how it goes.

Note 2: maybe you can do a phone restart instead of step 3, dunno really.

Now I'm going to bed :D
[Android Apps and Games] NYLimited:
You can try issuing the command

adb logcat

from your PC while your phone is connected.... Of course, you need adb installed on the PC for this.

[Android Apps and Games] quincho54:
Happened to me to, but only once. I'm using sixperience Costume Rom for Note 4, but some apk's are for Note 5. So, the XDA-Labs.apk detection is Note 5. I could change the proper Device Name in the Costume Rom but then several installed apk's wouldn't work. So I changed my device in the XDA-Labs.apk from Note 5 to Note 4. First time it was rejected. I did it again and now it stays as it should as Note 4. With a little bit pacients it can be done nicely without making a lot of noise.
[Android Apps and Games] MSF Jarvis:
blk_jack is not in town, just had a chat with him on IRC. He's let me know that this backend issue is not really his domain, and the most he can do is supply a list of devices with ro.product.model and XDA URL to the people responsible. [MENTION=4752536]FLooDW[/MENTION], want to pitch in for this?
[Android Apps and Games] quincho54:
That's why I said that ones in a while people make to much noise. This is not working and that is not working. They only need to look a litte bit more and try a little bit harder. I'm using XDA-Labs.apk since the first day. I never had any issue using the apk or downloading from Apk store and

the download problem is not a problem of the apk, its a problem of the Telefon company's Internet speed.
