About The ClaRetoX1 Forum App...

- The ClaRetoX1 Forum App is a Continuing Developement of it's predicessor, the "XDA Classic Forum" app, with a Nw Icon, New Splash Screen and Various Other Fixes & Enhancements.

- The Name broken down: The ClaRetoX1 Forum is (basically) short for "The Classic Retro XDA Forum" and is specific to the XDA Forum as was it's predicessor.

- The Icon broken down: The letters i used within the Icon is Ancient Greek and what looks like "Hello XDA" actually states "Heiio CDA". Clever huh... :-)

- Why the Rebranding? Well this was something that was (kind of) expected and, though i really can't go into the details, it was something that was being worked out for quite some time (behind the scenes) and have been ultimateley worked out.

- The ClaRetoX1 Forums App lets you access the World Famous xda-developers Forums and provides a simple interface formatted just right for your Android device. With this app you can access the XDA Forum to browse, read, post, and even access your Private Messages to send and receive private messages and much more.

Disclaimer(s)/Important Information

1) This is in no way affiliated with any XDA Developements, especially the XDA Labs App nor it's predicessors. This is only an alternative to other Forum Apps that's dedicated specifically to the XDA Forum.

2) I had kept the package name of this app's predicessor in order for those who were using the XDA Classic Forum to be able to Update/Upgrade to The ClaRetoX1 Forum without loss of any personalized settings (ie... Custom Signature, Favorites, etc...). I only reccomend to restart your device after updating/upgrading this app (though there is no reason why it should not work without doing so).

This app looks like the “XDA for Android 2.3” App… Why is this?

Basically, the XDA for Android 2.3 (aka XDA Free) has been abandoned for a very long time and though, I was a user of that app, I did find that over time there was increasing slowness in certain areas as well as other issues that really needed to be taken a look at.

So I had decided to work on this app. At first, this development was intended for personal use but, then I noticed how many other users were also using this app (as well as other alternatives) and, after asking a few other members, the interest in an improved version was expressed. So I decided to add this to my release of developments.

You could say that I really had to take this app apart and begin my journey in reworking this app very deep. It had taken me over 6 months and, seriously, over 2 dozen beta apps before I had found 3, very good and reputable, members to begin the closed testing phase.

I believe it had taken a little over a month along with some very valuable feedback till it was decided that this app is ready for it debut here,

What else is really needed to be done?”

This is a work still in progress and not perfect but, for the most part, is a very stable app. Updates will be released as I address areas that require to be worked on.

With so much time and effort made to improve this app… PLEASE don’t ask me what I did to the app as this would take a small novel… LMAO! Thank you for understanding.

What else do I need to know?

1 - The first load will take the longest, even if you're over WiFi.

2 – This app does works best over WiFi or high speed cellular data.

3 - This app does have my own package name (which wasn’t easey to do) so it will not interfere with other apps.
