I just updated the app wiping data (didn't work without wiping). I can't open links in the new version.
[Android Apps and Games] wis3m0nkey:
0.66a simply goes all black/blank and unresponsive, sorry I didn't grab logcat before uninstalling. Going to try reinstall and see how it goes.

I guess wiping data was issue, just reinstalled and is working :)
[Android Apps and Games] cromatn5:
Juste updated, i love the new forum tab and navigation drawer stat closed :good:

But i cant click any link
[Android Apps and Games] SyCoREAPER:
In-App download never seems to work, not sure why.

Also being able to hide until next update would be a neat feature
[Android Apps and Games] woodman:
Done! :good:
[Android Apps and Games] Swissfyre:
Hey! Can you add the SIGNATURE feature in XDA Legacy? I would love it! ???

Press THANKS if I helped!
[Android Apps and Games] Eleo:
Xda legacy? Or xda labs? Read here 28th suggestion
[Android Apps and Games] Swissfyre:
Oh, sorry. What I meant was the style of XDA Legacy that you can have your own signature without "touching" the Web one. Thanks for noticing, tho.

Press THANKS if I helped YOU. ??
[Android Apps and Games] Eleo:
And please remove the byline with "press thanks if I helped" . Everybody knows what thanks button is used for and it is frustrating to see this kind of byline on every post:eek:
[Android Apps and Games] _yen_:
Update here too... tested again using an unofficial of LOS13 and behavior is completely different... the two big offender wallpapers aren't displayed at all and I have this in logcat:

02-08 09:08:41.137 3538 3553 W OpenGLRenderer: Bitmap too large to be uploaded into a texture (7680x4320, max=2048x2048)
02-08 09:08:41.137 3538 3553 W OpenGLRenderer: Bitmap too large to be uploaded into a texture (7680x4320, max=2048x2048)

instead of the big crash I previously have with the aosp 7.1.1 based ROM trying to render a too large bitmap:

02-06 07:40:02.629 2727 2727 E CustomActivityOnCrash: java.lang.RuntimeException: Canvas: trying to draw too large(132710400bytes) bitmap.

So, at the end, it seems that I have triggered a bug in 7.1.1 aosp ROM itself and not in Labs.

Perhaps may be interesting to know also which ROM are using other peoples that have also a crash.

Thanks to all have tested, [MENTION=4752536]Wood Man[/MENTION] in particular, and sorry to have bother you.

Thanks

[Android Apps and Games] shaqman89:
I also got the crash after it tries to load the wallpaper. I am on Viperone 6.0.0 which is nougat (7.0} sense rom.
[Android Apps and Games] RockyTV:
Is it possible to have strike through and post/thread bbcode support? They aren't rendered on the app.
[Android Apps and Games] woodman:
STRIKE and HIDE tags (for instance) are not handled indeed, it's a general limitation which is listed in post #2. I don't know if this limitation is "fixable" though.

Some other BBCODE are already supported by Labs: B, I, INDENT, LIST, etc. but you have to write them yourself while creating a post (there is no built-in formatting tools in Labs yet).
[Android Apps and Games] DroidFreak32:
Hey ! I've searched for "tagging" but all the results were about lagging or nagging lol..

I would like to know if it's possible to show the list of xda member I'm tagging as I'm typing the name so I don't tag the wrong person by typing the wrong name.. :P
[Android Apps and Games] woodman:
It should come since it's in the roadmap post #3:
[Android Apps and Games] woodman:
[MENTION=2637227]blk_jack[/MENTION]

I have a feature request: would it be possible to add an Exit button in navdrawer allowing to close every opened stacks and close XDA Labs? This will prevent us from touching x times the Back button (x= number of opened stacks) to exit Labs properly.
[Android Apps and Games] Vivek Kantesaria:
Can I suggest XDA Labs should integrate themes like light dark and AMOLED dark.. :)
[Android Apps and Games] woodman:
Post #3 (roadmap) already mentions a super dark AMOLED theme but it's not a priority for blk_jack IMO.
[Android Apps and Games] Vivek Kantesaria:
Okay thanks :)
[Android Apps and Games] BillGoss:
Or, like it's done in SolId Explorer, long-press on back exits everything.
[Android Apps and Games] woodman:
Would love this instead if possible ! :svetius:
[Android Apps and Games] Eleo:
Hmm that would be same for us then. I am using xposed additions module and long tap back button (500ms) force closes the foreground apps :o
[Android Apps and Games] yochananmarqos:
It's double-tap, not long-press.
[Android Apps and Games] BillGoss:
Nope, for me it's long-press in Solid Explorer.
[Android Apps and Games] woodman:
If any xda labs action, long press or double tap or whatever, conflicts with other xposed mods, we could make it configurable in Labs settings with a toggle. This could be added in addition to my initial request about the Exit button in navdrawer?
[Android Apps and Games] laddugaur:

[Android Apps and Games] laddugaur:

---------- Post added at 11:02 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:55 AM ----------

And why it is showing that i must have higher post count??whats the meaning of it
[Android Apps and Games] iXaidyiu:
You now have a post count of 20, you need 30(?) in order to open a new thread in DEV forums.
[Android Apps and Games] Eleo:
He had only 2 posts 30 minutes ago when he posted that. So when he tried creating thread he actually had 0 posts.
[Android Apps and Games] iXaidyiu:
18 when I first publish the comment.
[Android Apps and Games] Eleo:
What is the problem here? The inclusion of [/b] with the link? Or presence of indent/list inbetween them?
[Android Apps and Games] iXaidyiu:
Labs cannot parse (Oh wait it can) tags so it just mistakenly take "]" as the end of the "url" tag?
[Android Apps and Games] Eleo:
The last line should be like this:

(Url=*download link from AFH site*]Download(/b)(/url)--->with square brackets

So if I do same:

First line

Fist choice​

Second choice​

Third choice​

Downloadabout:blank

Without indents:

First line

Fist choice

Second choice

Third choice

Downloadabout:blank

Without any change:

Without indents:

First line

Fist choice

Second choice

Third choice

Downloadabout:blank

First one with (close bold) outside link:

First line

Fist choice​

Second choice​

Third choice​

Download

Ok. Found it! When close bold is inside url link, it is not acknowledged as "close bold". So it should be outside "close url" in square brackets to be acknowledged:good:
[Android Apps and Games] iXaidyiu:
Both failed.

Return is inputted between the tag and the content:

First line

Second

Third

Download

//It succeed!
[Android Apps and Games] Eleo:
But since in quotation it doesnt take url as links it acknowledges the "close bold" with no problem I suppose :eek: blew my mind out
[Android Apps and Games] woodman:
[MENTION=4598795]Eleo[/MENTION]

This is not a Labs issue :)

The website is more forgiving of badly formatted text, that's why it appears OK on it.

The explanation was given by blk_jack HERE.
[Android Apps and Games] Eleo:
Oh yes. I remember it about text formatting. Forgot that url is also a part of that. Thought it is only for bold and italic:p

Sorry, my bad. Thanks for clarification
[Android Apps and Games] MrWasdennnoch:
To summarize the above, the parent tag gets closed before the child tag which is illegal. So, as said, not a labs issue but a bad writer :p
[Android Apps and Games] woodman:
That's correct, a bad writer is the culprit!

Hi,

I got weird problem on XDA site, mobile computer site and in XDA labs app.

Problem - can't use code to attach image.

I tried to attach image but can't get proper image link for it. In every XDA access site and app.

Attachment image link starts with "dl.xda-developrs...."

When I searched other threads post image link starts with "cdn.xda-developers..."

Need help.
[Android Apps and Games] woodman:
Deleted... I was wrong, it's not related to https links

[MENTION=6827524]amit.tiger12[/MENTION]

IMG tag works here:

:)
[Android Apps and Games] TigerKing:
No I haven't mentioned anything related to https or http.

Did you attached image or added link for an image?

vvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvv

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

I used IMG tag and added link of it. (Above)

Now trying attaching it.

I can't use img tag for attached image on XDA mobile desktop site.

Not working.

I selected quote button and then selected reply for your post on firefox beta android.

It does not show IMG tag and link of it in your reply. Blank.

For my reply (below your reply's quote tag), there is another IMG.XDA.CDN link with your existing IMG tag link. But image does not appears.

But when I try to quote from XDA lab it shows IMG tag and link in it, but only in your reply.

Did you get it?
[Android Apps and Games] Eleo:
Are you sure? I can uoload image to photobucket/free image hosting bt.rs/imgur and etc and share the image link by img tags:

Anywhere I want

Inbetween lines.

See attachment for img tags
[Android Apps and Games] TigerKing:
Check this there is no IMG tag for your reply in XDA lab app.
[Android Apps and Games] TigerKing:
Trying IMG again.

It seems working for adding other source link.

Did you posted link without adding IMG tags?

I was trying to add of my own. May be that was problem.

Last, how to add tag for attached image. [MENTION=4598795]Eleo[/MENTION] [MENTION=4752536]Wood Man[/MENTION]

[See re-editing show links addition.] On Firefox beta android mobile site.]
[Android Apps and Games] Eleo:
You shouldt be able to see my img source links. You can open and download image by clicking onto it from my post, but if I posted it from my personal album with a link that can open that album, you shouldnt be able to see it. Isn't it the right way?

For tapatalk when you reply to post with tapatalk attachment it seems you can have the img inside quotation, but that is not the case for xda I suppose

My post was as I showed it on the attachment with img tags.

Dont know about tag for attached image. You mean like instagram tags as #sharing#xdalabs#info#chillinout#withfriends?

:D
[Android Apps and Games] Eleo:
By the way I think you forget that you have to have img tags before and after link as shown in attachment.
[Android Apps and Games] TigerKing:
OK.

When you upload image in post. You see it in attachments.

In XDA labs app you can't see attachment but you can see attachments on XDA site.

How do I use those image attachment link and add

tag for it. I was trying it but it does not work, on XDA mobile desktop site.

Nope bro coding tags..[COLOR="Silver"]

[Android Apps and Games] Eleo:
Not sure about that. In development threads there are many users posting who have only 1 post (that post on development thread). And I thought that 10 post rule was already dismissed:confused:
[Android Apps and Games] woodman:
Yeah, 10 post rule doesn't exist anymore.

However I saw a few people (junior members with less than approx. 5 posts in this thread complaining about "post creation failed". I think there's a glitch with Labs or Labs backend about this. Weirdly those users were able to post using Labs when they reached 5 posts(?), like here...

But as said multiple times, we needs logs for this case.

[FEATURE REQUEST] [MENTION=2637227]blk_jack[/MENTION]

As you can see from the screenshot, my avatar, which is circle in shape, has a white holo that bound my icon. Can you set the default background color for avatar to the post-card background color (eg #1A1A1A)? It will look a lot smoother that way.
[Android Apps and Games] Sharan A.:
Yup it works now. I think the problem wasn't my internet connection because right after I had tried posting there, I posted here and it did so without any problem.

Something wrong from the app server's side maybe?

BTW there's no option to change our profile pic in the app right? Any plans on that?
[Android Apps and Games] woodman:

The xda app 'news' section isn't refreshing properly for me. Right now, the latest article is 3 days old. This non-refresh happens a lot, and when it does refresh, I get a flood of articles from multiple days.

Can there be a pull down to refresh option for news, similar to the forums?
[Android Apps and Games] woodman:
Articles refresh very well on my end.

If you want to refresh manually you can use pull down from the navdrawer.

Related post: HERE
[Android Apps and Games] Ja_som:
This forum is English only, please read the rules...
[Android Apps and Games] RobotPhone:
The manual refresh pulldown in the app's menu drawer fixed it. I didn't even know that pull down was an option!

Imo it would be more intuitive to have refresh pulldowns in the sections (I.e. News, apps, xposed, etc) to mimic the UI of xda forums.

Thanks for the help; the lack of auto refresh was driving me nuts!
[Android Apps and Games] woodman:
As said in blk_jack's post I've linked, there's actually an auto-refresh on Labs resume. I don't know if it's planned to change the pull down to refresh current behaviour on the Labs portion just like it's done in Forum portion though.

[Android Apps and Games] Teekanne3000:
Why isn't it possible to copy text directly? I can't see the sense.
[Android Apps and Games] Eleo:
I think it would not be as user friendly if any touch could result in text highlight. There are many gestures/swipes present in app. Those may intersect
[Android Apps and Games] Teekanne3000:
I think, it should be like in chrome. Short press, nothing happens, long press, you can highlight words, text and copy it.
[Android Apps and Games] Nergal di Cuthah:
Ugh, I, personally would dislike this. The current way allows tags, such as quote, url, etc to be copied

The Double Tap to Crash bug (DT2C bug :))

100% reproductible

1- Go in a sub-forum or a thread list,

2- Long press an unread sub-forum / thread,

3- Double tap the eye icon on the action bar (mark as read button) - screenshot attached

4- Crash! Logs attached.

[MENTION=5119654]IronTechmonkey[/MENTION], do you think your issue quoted above is the same?

same as [MENTION=4852315]milojoseph[/MENTION] here (see logcat attached) seem it can't load images from hosting site (itself behind a cloudfare CDN?)

bye

[Android Apps and Games] IronTechmonkey:
That's it! Can reproduce this consistently in Lollipop CM12.1 and Nougat Lineage 14.1... and it makes sense that this occurred while I was mobile, particularly when walking, which certainly causes irregular screen contact. Thanks for tying it together.
[Android Apps and Games] woodman:
It's crystal clear now, thanks for feedback :highfive:

Added as issue #62.
[Android Apps and Games] Eleo:
May I ask a question? I can mark the thread as read by selecting it and clicking once on the eye image on top. Why do we need double click? Does it have another feature? Or is it because it just gives an error on xda labs app?
[Android Apps and Games] woodman:
Only 1 tap is needed to mark as read, I've discovered the crash by touching twice the icon by mistake :D

So there's no additionnal feature related to double tap ;)
[Android Apps and Games] andy356:
Yes, this is the exact image of how it looks on my phone too. But if it's not a slow internet issue, then I'm not sure what it is.
[Android Apps and Games] firetv559:
I need some help. Think someone is sending me roms wirelessly

I don't mind testing and helping progression but totally new and some of my devices are already bricked
[Android Apps and Games] QuickNET Tech:
Can confirm as well. However, it only happens when I blacklist XDA Labs from the "double tap to select text" option in Text Aide (which allows me to select text from almost anything that doesn't do something when touched like a button). If the option is enabled, it just tries to select text as it should. Not sure if it's helpful, just my observations as the crash was not initially reproducible until I blacklisted XDA Labs.
[Android Apps and Games] Portgas D. Ace:
I don't see how this is related to XDA Labs app.
[Android Apps and Games] gabrieltm:
Very nice APP with lots of potencial. Maybe someday it could replace gplay. Some nice feature to add would be a category to keep track of ROM updates, but i guess someone must'v said that already. Keep doin the good job

Inside joke.

Alright back to labs discussion.

Just had a problem with Labs while replying to a post. Was quoting 2 post and was almost done responding to the second post, then bam Xda labs Fc! But it didn't save the draft like it do if we back out the app and come back to it. :confused::confused:

Now I have to start all over with my original post. Just a lil annoying having to write everything I did again. This is the one thing that gets to me.

/rant

For those of you wanting text selection in labs there's plenty of apps and some modules that help you solve that problem. Noticed it being asked a few times here. I personally use

text aide so I can double tap on any text I want highlighted.

Here's a few more apps I found for text selection. Just search the PS for more.

Universal copy

copy copy
[Android Apps and Games] woodman:
Haha, good to see you follow the right thread ;)

Thanks for the compliment, this moment with kids & family & friends was very fun :D

I assume draft is saved only when we exit the post or PM, and not each x seconds, which explains why it wasn't saved in your case, XDA Labs can't know it will crash before it crashes, LOL. It's not smart something like: "oh wait, I'm gonna crash, please just save draft before!" :laugh:

Seriously, only solution should be a manual save and/or an auto-save each x seconds to avoid such situation. Or we simply gonna fix remaining crash cases, LOL.

I installed XDA labs on my android wear 1.5 Huawei watch. It got me thinking, with the launch of android wear 2.0, we could try making a seperate android wear 2.0 app. Just a suggestion. I have no app development experience btw.
