Ok. Let's check this out. I subscribed to subforum of Note 3 android development. Its upper forum (or top level forum) is samsung galaxy note 3. But I cannot subscribe to samsung galaxy note 3. I can subscribe to subforums individually (as in q&a and news for lineageOS). I mean I get the pattern out of here. Can you show me a top level forum that has subforums and that you can subscribe to the top level forum not by subscribing to every subforum it has; but only by clicking on one star from xda labs as you said? You said lineageOS is particualrly different example, but so is samsung galaxy note 3 forum it seems:confused:

My imgur links work well, I've double checked... Weird.
[Android Apps and Games] Eleo:
I havent ever been able to open imgur pics. Ever. Checked again. Maybe it is somehow blocked in my country or so :confused: but as I said no problem.

Oh sweet we're getting HTTPS.

Androidfilehost links are still derping when I last tried opening them in labs. It adds random characters before the HTTP part of the URL.
[Android Apps and Games] IronTechmonkey:
Thanks. After reading that description, I think whatever may have happened to post content is not directly related. Will keep an eye on that. Thanks again.

I got curious about this because I've experienced similar things depending on the location of the VPN server I'm connected to. I was able to access the imagur links through VPN servers in Canada, UK, US and Turkey... for what that is worth but that doesn't necessarily speak to traffic in the opposite direction. If you can access the same images from PC (which might preclude regional restrictions) then the only things I can think of in Android that would allow the initial link but not the actual content are

- Background data disabled preventing the download, but that would affect other downloads.

- Firewall blocking "Media Storage, Download Manager, Downloads", but again, would affect other things and likely be noticed already.

LOL: After this test I forgot I was connected to a VPN server elsewhere until google and hotmail stopped allowing e-mail through and started sending alerts about potentially unauthorized access as they often do in that case. In any event, so...you might be right about regional access.
[Android Apps and Games] andy356:
I can't send a PM. Can someone confirm this? I think it might be a part of the HTTPS migration.
[Android Apps and Games] sd_shadow:

[Android Apps and Games] andy356:
Well. Turns out the message subject is compulsory. It would be helpful to see an error message for this.
[Android Apps and Games] moriel5:
I personally don't like Imgur links as they require javascript to load the images (something I generally keep off on my phone, as doing so cuts down the page's loading time, prevents me from having to worry about as many pop-ups, and (in combination with the above), and bolsters (if temporarily) the overall security of my browsing session).
[Android Apps and Games] woodman:
I use imgur links inside IMG tags when I'm on xda to show inline images. So I guess the javascript thing doesn't come into play this way. :)

In my previous post I've linked imgur links without IMG tags IRT the current attachment issue of the XDA website. :)
[Android Apps and Games] Eleo:
I still cannot open imgur links neither from pc nor from phone. I found a new image hosting app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.btrs.freeimagehosting. It is same as imgur and you can attach images inside {img} {/img} inline text. Just tried it out

Link: https://image.bt.rs/image/J7r

Link with image for inline (provided by app itself): https://image.bt.rs/images/2016/12/31/Screenshot_20161231-222927.jpg

Inline image:

P.S. For time being xda attachments still dont work and tinypic doesnt have an easy interface on browser (and doesnt have an android app)
[Android Apps and Games] moriel5:
Thanks, in that case I may (probably not, but perhaps) use Imgur in the future (with IMG tags).

And you are right about the attachment issue, I had noticed it while thanking another member in a different thread when out of thanks (and it will probably come to light here as well, as I am still out of thanks).
[Android Apps and Games] woodman:
I don't have enough time to upload elsewhere my screenshots but no need for it. As I said previously, just go in "top", "new" or "general" tabs and then you can subscribe to top level forums: just touch the little star next to each line. Or if you don't find them, you can use the search icon on top right within those tabs and you will be able to subscribe to top level forums directly from forum search results.
[Android Apps and Games] blk_jack:
Hey guys, thought I'd mention that I'm working on a new version of Labs that will address the HTTPS change as well as other things.

More importantly though I hope everyone has a happy and safe new year. Thanks to everyone that has contributed this past year. I can't express my appreciation and respect enough, really. It's so appreciated even if it's not said as often as it should be.

Our community is so great and unique and I'm proud to be part of all this.

[Android Apps and Games] andy356:
Already reported in this thread by me and others. This is because of slow download speed. Not an issue from XDA Labs side. I've learned to live with it.

Problem solved. I found a way to download it from XDA servers.

Here is what I did...

Downloaded and installed ADM and MEDIAFIRE from PLAY STORE...

Shared PAYROPE BROWSER from XDA LABS to ADM BROWSER........

Clicked the download button........

The ADM dialogue box appeared..... With the name of the file and the download link.....

Copied the link to MEDIAFIRE WEB UPLOAD.......

Then I downloaded it from my MEDIAFIRE account.....

:) IT'S THE WAY AROUND THE NECK FOR THE NOSE

BUT YEAH IT WORKED FOR ME....... :laugh:
[Android Apps and Games] andy356:
Oh my. All that hoop jumping. But it's good that a workaround is known. :good:
[Android Apps and Games] RedToken:

[Android Apps and Games] moriel5:
Even so, I can wait.

I have an obsession with lightweight apps, and while I don't consider XDA Labs to be truly lightweight, at least it's not too heavy

Plus, I had never really liked Tapatalk (I had used it exactly once, and then came back to the (then current) legacy XDA app).
[Android Apps and Games] Eleo:
Funny though your attachment is still not visible:o

Use imgur or the app I mentioned here for attachment of pictures for now and mega for other attachments;) until the server issue is resolved

Maybe auto-detection will be better in next build...

How can I evade this situation? 4 out of 5 tries I cannot attach more than one attachment. First attachment has no issue and can be attached anytime, but second one shows this message and cannot be attached in 4 out of 5 cases (and consequently all the other attachments because second one cannot be attached). I tried to change attachments' places (though they are of similar size and have same extension and same permissions) but no result. I have no issue with internet or network and have to go to web version from 3dot menu and write my post with attachments there. In web version I get no issues attaching 4 6 or even 8 attachments. But in xda labs I usually cannot. How can I help the dev to look for solution for this? I mean it is not happening always, and I cannot seem to find a trend for replicable bug report :confused:
[Android Apps and Games] woodman:
Only solution will be providing logs.

Install and use xda labs debug version. Then next time such issue you can't reproduce on demand occurs, open immediately your logcat app and save logs (not the record mode but the save option): it will save what happened around x minutes/hours before you take logs. Then, the moment of the issue will be in the log file.

Better is finding a pattern to reproduce but if it's too difficult for you, logs should be enough.
[Android Apps and Games] moriel5:
I occasionally run into the same issue, except for the fact that I usually succeed on the 2nd or 3rd attempt.
[Android Apps and Games] Eleo:
Sadly that is not case for me. Sometimes it takes one force close, some times two consequent force closes sometimes a reboot and sometimes even the reboot is not enough and I cant still attach the second file to a post :confused:

Installed debug xda labs and alogcat app. Will try to recreate situation, take logs, try remove personal info and share the log here if it contains anything valuable.

But dammit as hard as I try to recreate scenario it doesnt have issues with attachments. But I am sure it will have issues when I need it to attach files:D the murphy rule
[Android Apps and Games] knpk13:
I'd use matlog or adb. I assume it still works, but aLogcat seems to have been last updated in 2012 :eek:
[Android Apps and Games] IronTechmonkey:
For what it is worth I've found Catlog by Nolan Lawson at Google Play (last updated 2 years ago) to be OK, then there is this under-appreciated live log viewer https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2454610&page=3 which is a bit older but offers a UI and features on top of ADB logging from PC.

[EDIT] Ahh, the newer Matlog at Playstore is actual based on the old Catlog. Time to switch to the newer one. Thanks for mentioning it.
[Android Apps and Games] zelendel:
Matlog took over development of alogcat. It's what most use.
[Android Apps and Games] IronTechmonkey:
Description of FC for which logs have been automatically sent.

I've been occasionally experiencing an FC in XDA Labs that I don't see described in the OPs or the known and fixed issues lists. The automatically generated logs have been sent when this occurs, and here is a description to match them:

An FC that occurs when selecting threads and marking them as read:

- Occurs regularly but not at all frequently, typically when commuting.

- It rarely if ever occurs when selecting a single thread to mark as read.

- When it does occur it is usually when selecting threads and marking them as read in succession, seemingly when the next thread is being selected.

- Transition between mobile data and or WiFi connections while mobile may be a factor as this typically occurs when commuting.

This is in L5.1.1/CM12.1. I'll try to log this for a deeper look for myself (with matlog - thanks again) but the XDA Labs logs should already speak to it.

[Android Apps and Games] knpk13:

Can confirm this has been happening quite frequently here. If the automatic stacktrace isn't enough, let me know so I can send logs.
[Android Apps and Games] dev1t:
I don't think it's a connection issue. My latency is low and ping times are good to most sites I check and I'm on gigabit fiber. It says posting and then says post failed at the bottom.
[Android Apps and Games] robhug:
I just try Tapatalk (quickly return to XDA labs, because it's not practical and there is lot of ads and not all the fantastic XDA labs features) but I think the Tapatalk interface is quite nice ! I mean the orange header instead of the gray on XDA labs is good and it should looks good with dark theme. Then it depends on everyone tastes but its just my opinion :)

Have a nice day guys :highfive:
[Android Apps and Games] moriel5:

[Android Apps and Games] iXaidyiu:

Hi,

Low priority feature request

Show signatures,( toggle in settings?))

A lot of users link their work in signatures here on xda and it's neat to see without going to the user profile.

Just a suggestion for future development
[Android Apps and Games] woodman:
Weird, I've never had those FCs.
[Android Apps and Games] leolawliet:
Dude I knew you seemed familiar. I remember you from the Optimus V days. Thanks for all of your support back then :good:

And I'd also like to see this request become a feature. It'd also make it a bit easier to spot some recognized users on-the-fly.
[Android Apps and Games] Eleo:
Signatures are actually spamming right now instead of showing useful info. Signatures can be easily seen by clicking on the user's nickname in threads in xda labs.

Other than that now I see many people using custom bylines like:

Don"t look

Click Thanks:good:

Instead

....

Irritating gifs inside forums asking for thanks

...

And so on, which is irritating at best. So either a rule should be out for only showing your own works or the signatures should be deleted at all.

Just my own opinion. I hope signatures will never be seen in forums and only be accessible through entering to user's own profile.

Cheers

Well I am sure you will be irritated as well from those users asking for thanks. Now that in xda labs signatures are not seen they copy paste same text with gifs and online images to "promote" themselves at the end of each of their posts but actually make people in forum be disgusted (I am sorry for such harsh language but I get so angry whenever I see those users:mad: )
[Android Apps and Games] leolawliet:
You made a lot of sense, I can see how it would be annoying.
[Android Apps and Games] Gizmoe:
If it worked like the browser the end user could toggle whether to see them or not. So you can just hide them if you wish. Then there would be no need to turn personal signatures into a dictatorship. :laugh:
[Android Apps and Games] Eleo:
Not only signatures. I tried to report every such user with bylines in posts but they dont have an ending. All those junior members with only questions and no helping or any info and asking thanks each time (even though it is prohibited to ask for thanks in xda)...

Yeah. But I cant think of a reason to see signatures in threads. Wanna learn stuff? Click to see profile:laugh: If you would see those signatures everytime you would never turn on signatures at all if you dont mind me pointing it out :laugh: and I see only byliners and it is well pretty much enough for me to unsubscribe from a thread because of such users:laugh:
[Android Apps and Games] Mecca EL:
Not sure if this was mentioned, but I'm having trouble posting pics from the app to the forum. And when I select an xda link that's sent to me, the option to open in the Labs app doesn't appear. I have the latest version installed.
[Android Apps and Games] woodman:
About pics, that's not normal, I can post them without problem. Maybe logs ?

About links which don't open with Labs, I think it's a problem related to recent https migration which will be solved in next build as said by blk_jack. I hope so at least. :)
[Android Apps and Games] woodman:
Upload pic test with Labs.
[Android Apps and Games] Eleo:
Yes links should be related to https migration since I also cannot get xda labs app to open the link from the notifocation mail. I get only browsers options to open. So yes, it should be related to that. I am sure it will be solved in next build as blk_jack said.
[Android Apps and Games] coal686:
It's not really forbidden to ask for thanks although some see it in bad taste. If someone is helpful, then the helped person should "pay" them with a thanks without being asked. Not required, but kind. As for obnoxious signatures, we do somewhat limit their size, but the only rule is that they follow the site rules. If you see any that are breaking the rules, please report them for moderator review. Of course, as was suggested, you can turn them off in Settings -> Edit Options, but that won't help with bylines. Speaking of which:

Hit thanks if I helped. :silly:
[Android Apps and Games] Eleo:
That is intiutively. If you are not a newbie you know that. I know that mostly when I am helpful to somebody I dont get thanks from that user, but sometimes get a reply as "thanks" which is somewhat less helpful and more spammy. But asking for thanks... no. That never helped me at least :D:p

I've had a few Fc myself with labs. But a minor Fc don't affect me much.

Nice avatar Mr log master!

Hello

Please don't pay attention to the "thanks" it can drive you crazy. I use to be like you getting annoyed with members asking for thanks in their post and sigs. I was one of those myself asking long long time ago. After I stopped worrying about them in general and just continued helping others, I stared getting more than I ever got b4.:cool:

Like [MENTION=4592755]coal686[/MENTION] said it's not forbidden too ask for thanks. Kinda like someone saying thanks for the info/help.

Not sure how someone actually writing "thanks" instead of clicking a button is spam:eek:. Some prefer to say thanks to old fashion way imo. Just like making a phone call to say what you want rather than sending a text.

Last comment.

Newbie, rookie, (noob) not the best word in my book.

Now I'll say my part, when I first got to Xda I didn't have a clue how things worked. Most are concerned about making their device look cool. Instead of learning how-to do what they want.

Best place to start learning is right here on Xda! Have a look below>

http://xdaforums.com/general/xda-university

It took a long time for me to learn my way around this massive site and how things run here.

Don't ever forget this we have a lot of younger (kids) members here. That just WANT the latest and the greatest on their new gadget. And have zero interest in any kind of development.
[Android Apps and Games] woodman:
Not my case. I just report every single FC to hopefully have the most perfect app ever. :laugh:

Thanks (not a spam) :D

It was my previous one.
[Android Apps and Games] Eleo:
Totally agree. Just let me make some last minute explanations:

"Press thanks if I helped" is what I used to have too (in signature), and dont mind seeing in other isers signature too. It is just a text, you can ignore it. I am talking about these (real life user bylines):

And this:

(This one even got a gif animation inside post as a byliner)

And now you be the judge. How would you feel to see these every time that user posts. I really unsubscribed from the forums such users are visiting/posting in. And you cant dismiss cause it is not a signature. It is right in every ffing post of their:D

Writing thanks once is not a spam. But when all you see are thanks posts all over the thread where you are trying to find info and dont know which keywords to use... yes. So I dont say that writing a thanks post is spammy, but when it gets contagious it can be lethal for a thread:D
[Android Apps and Games] zelendel:
Well then they are in the wrong place. The results mean less then the journey, but you are right. The kids these days don't want to know how it's done. That's part of the reason many developers are leaving and even more refuse to answer questions or pm.

Yeah people should not worry about the Thanks meter. It means as much as ahciabxiebxiebxiebjdixbejx does.

Finally got a chance to look into this. OnePlus didn't bother changing the model # of the 3T. They kept it the exact same as the 3.

So yea, blame them. I mean maybe it was due to the unified builds, but come on how the hell do you not change the model number on two different phones, even if one is a "3.5" sidegrade or whatever.
