[Oct 27] Official XDA One Forum App [Alpha] [APK] Version 0.1.14 - About xda-developers.com

XDA One has a successor. It's called XDA Labs. Click here to get it
Greetings all!
When we launched the 2015 new forum template, we promised that we were also getting ready to release XDA One, which is the first forum app for XDA developed entirely in-house (thanks to @tilal6991 for working on the code, @rwestergren for building the new API, @bitpushr for helping with server stuff, and @jerdog for his coordination). In its current (alpha) state, XDA One is a fast (and nice-looking) way to browse and post in the forums. You can access our mention/quote system, see your subscriptions, send PMs, and more. In the future we plan to add tools for moderators, integration with our Development Database, support for tablets, and more to make it the "One" place to experience all of XDA on mobile. :victory:
We have open sourced the app so that any can help make it better. Please access the XDA One GitHub repository to see the source code and/or to contribute. :highfive:
FAQ:
Why is this app in alpha?
It's not done yet and bugs still exist. As we put finishing touches on the app, we'll move closer to a beta release which will go on Google Play. Until then, we want XDA members to give it a try and help us find bugs.
What are you doing with XDA Free, XDA Premium, and Tapatalk? Will they still work?
For the foreseeable future, these apps will continue to be supported.
Why is it called "XDA One"?
As mentioned above, our vision for the app is for it to be the "One" place where you can experience all of XDA from your mobile device. In the future we will more deeply integrate the app into the site.
Are you going to charge for XDA One or will it be free?
Our plan is to make XDA One ad-supported.
I found a bug! Or, I have a feature request!
Post them in this thread. If reporting a bug, please describe the issue, steps to reproduce, and tell us what hardware and ROM (OS) you're using.
A couple of technical notes:
XDA One is developed using the Android Studio IDE. A simple debug build can be compiled using the XDA-One:assembleSimpleDebug gradle task. We will adopt the "Fork & pull" model of collaboration. Collaborators are encouraged to fork the project and submit pull requests for XDA's review, in order to be integrated back into the main release.

Last Updated 2015-11-06

I was going to release this build last week but I had some issues with Marshmallows permission system. I didn’t realise Google had changed the protection level for External Storage access from normal to dangerous. So when I tried to download an attachment I got an FC. There is a slight issue with the dark and black theme, device images appear to have a white background. I’m not sure what to do with this, maybe disable the device images and revert to the placeholder Image?
Note: you may need to remove the old version before you install this one; I had some issues with my old signing keys.

Source Code

Finally an app made specifically for XDA. How about making the actual developers of the app post in here so we can all thank them?
Check out my icon pack!

Excellent! Great job guys! ?
Installing now. ?
Very much appreciated by all I am sure.

Yay!!

Awesome! Trying now. Thank you for releasing it as Alpha!

Oh Goodie! Finally!
Installing now!
EDIT - Clean Crisp UI. Loving it!! Like the Gmail Style Refresh. Just one observation. When I am in Subscribed Thread list and press Home, relanching the app Brings me back to list of Forums not Subscribed threads. Don't like this part.
Bye Bye Crap A Talk!

Thanks guys, been using it for a day now and I made a list of stuff I ran into:
The search button should have be more prominent, it shouldn't disappear until the user is in a thread. It's still useful when in a sub-forum so it could be in the location of the star when in a thread.
The brown doesn't make a whole lot of sense anymore, it's nowhere to be found on the site so why is it still in the app?
When opening subscribtions I think subscribed threads should be the default view instead of subscribed forums, but I guess that depends on how users use the subscribtion functionality.
There's a lot of space in the blue square with the user-name and avatar in it, you could list the message, quote and mention counts there, and I'm not sure why my e-mail address is there?
Giving the new thread button such a prominent place doesn't make a lot of sense and I think it encourages posting a new thread instead of encouraging users to search.
There should be a way to add a device to "my devices" from the app, perhaps a star in the action bar just like the subscribe stars on the forum list when in a device forum?
The button for opening the "insert smilie" looks like a place-holder, but just to be sure it clashes like crazy with the rest of the interface. And I think "insert emoticon" would be a better name for the interface.
This is meant in the most constructive way possible, I've just been reading a lot on interaction design and couldn't help myself. I'll try and fiddle with the color scheme a bit this weekend, I have something like this in mind.

Thanks @svetius and @Woody for linking me.
Reporting back in a few minutes.

I like this color scheme, and this is exactly the kind of thing we were hoping to see when developing this app. Looking forward to seeing your contributions!

Thanks @svetius and @Judge Joseph Dredd

Please make sure that before you install this you are fully aware that it is an ALPHA (it even says so in it's title ). So there WILL be bugs. Best way that you can help the awesome team that put this together is by submitting a "proper" bug report with a logcat attached.
Don't know how to pull a logcat? Well I have just the thread for you. [GUIDE] Easiest Way to Utilize Catlog Believe me, a logcat and bug report go soooo much further than, "It's broke. Please fix". We've been using this for about a month and it has come along tremendously since then.
Also note that a Bug Report is not the same thing as a Feature Request. Knowing the difference will help everyone out in the long run.

Will install it, let's see how good it is!

Using the app now, really smooth. Would like to select what screen the app will open on (subscribed, notifications, news, etc). Also the reply UI is a little cramped,maybe if you widen the text area it will make it look a lot more comfortable.
I also agree with the previous post the the smiley icon clashes with the entire UI.
Also, I now that the hamburger drawer is the Android way to go, but I think it would be better if I don't have to scroll through it. Add a settings button or merge a few options in to one so that all the links information fits on one screen.
I appreciate the hard work, looks awesome and I look forward to the finished product.

Been waiting a long time for this and will take it for a spin! Cool

So, I've been using it for a while and it looks amazing! The design is waaaay better now, and everything's more clean! Thanks for the nice app

Yay!!

Ohhh yeah been waiting for this since the forum redesign and svetius mentioning an app in the comments on portal. For an alpha, this is fantastic! Great work all involved :highfive:
Edit : I couldn't find a way to edit my post... So I'm editing my post from Tapatalk which reinforced this statement... Xda one SMOKES Tapatalk for speed. Absolutely annihilates it

I am loving this! Be testing starting now!

@Nick Fury, the new version is available now.
I've been looking forward to this release for months and months now (probably even longer - dependant on when I first saw it mentioned) and am glad to see it's here and working great with it sure to get even better in future releases.
The only thing I've noticed so far is that checking new mentions/quotes doesn't clear them from the site. I realize it's only an alpha though so there'll be a lot which isn't included yet

[.NET Controls] mirabyte Touch Controls

Hi guys,
as I told in the past, I developed finger friendly .net controls during the last 6 months.
Because of support, bug-fixing, etc. I have to sell them, so they are not for free, but they are very cheap.
If you are interested, have a look at the video or demo application at:
http://www.mirabyte.com/en/products/windows-mobile.html
Users of xda-developers will get a discount of 10%. Send me a PN to get the coupon code.
Greets,
Sascha
This is EXACTLY what I needed, glad its not hundreds of dollars either.
I'm very pleased to hear that the controls are exactly what you are looking for. That's the reason why I developed them ;-)
Let me know, if need further help or if you bought them.
Hey
This is really nice.... something which we all would like to incorporate
but the only problem is .. it is over-priced. Along with many professional developers .. there are students also who are developing mobile applications .. and ~= 70USD is kinda expensive.
But I am really impressed with the work.
CR
Hey
~Nothing here~
Sorry posted this two times by mistake

We hope that you will like the new version of Touch Controls Suite!

[App] Prepay Widget needs some testers!

Hello everyone! I am the developer of Prepay Widget, a powerful app that allows you to monitor your account balance through USSD requests.
You can find more info about USSD on Wikipedia, but basically these are short, SMS-like messages used by most GSM and some CDMA providers to deliver information
or control account services. The actual information comes to you in the form of popup toasts, which thids app hides and parses into widgets.
You can find the apps landing page on XDA at the following thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=12348102
However, i want to stress that its important that we get some device-specific feedback, so please post in this thread if you have issues,
this helps me keep track of bugs and requests better.
You can use the Lite version of the app - it has all the functionality of the full version apart from automatic updates (not really that important imo).
As I haven't got one of these phones in my pocket, I need some testers to track down problems. Please, use this thread to comment or
suggest features. It is my belief that addressing issues is best done individually by phone, so if something doesn't work, let me know and I will fix it ASAP.
Market link:
https://market.android.com/details?id=fahrbot.apps.ussd.widget.lite
Debugging:
Please use the "Write to developer" item in the Settings menu to send logs. Enable debugging, reproduce your error and then send the logs.
Make sure you include a description - the more detailed the description the better.
Screens:
Guys, im working on an update in the next few day and i really need some feedback!
I have updated the app - please let me know if this fixes your issues!
Hi guys. Any issues to report before we start working on a new build?
Count me in dude, ill be happy to test it for you
Sent from my Glitch powered super mother******
Great! Please, report back in this thread.
By far the best app of its kind! Love it!
Certainly its way better than the competition!
App is now in Top New Paid on the market
Working perfectly atm - one of my favorites for sure!
Come on guys - i would have thought people would be willing to test a totally free and awesome widget!
Still nothing?
How is it working?
1.1.3
- New USSD intercept mechanism (beta)
- Update status animations added
- Log graphivs changed
- Rare device specific errors fixed
- Some update bugs fixed
Lets get some feedback please!
Any issues to report?
So, has anyone had a chance to do some testing?
Any issues to report?
As I'm on PAYG and you dont seem to be getting much responses I'll D/L it and give it a go for you and let you know in a few days.
Most people on pay as you go are cheapskates, they just steal the app or use the free version. At $1.28, its a steal.
Any issues with yesterday's update?

Good application but needs some improvement
Application is useful..however the text field is somewhat small in size. Also, I am unable to scroll down to 'description' and 'password' field is easily...
Have a look at the screenshot. I am using HTC Mozart
Also you will need to allow to copy the password or the account name e.g. twitter handle

That's being added to the list Never thought of that actually Great idea (Y)
1) Also the text box should be bigger so I can See what is getting typed in.
2) I should be able to edit it.
3 ) When pushing the encrypt button the app exists on me.
You should provide an option to have a 'master password' kind of thing. This will keep our encrypted data safe from others. Decrypt option can be used to access all the sensitive information like password, site.
See youtube video link for better idea http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HZyEslVBVCE&hd=1

A masterkey is already being worked on, and it will also affect the cryptation of the data.
I will hopefully release a new version today with:
Site URI clickable and opens in Webbrowser
Able to copy Username/Password/description
Add accound page fixed
Looks nice. But I have one question, can I import passwords database in kdb format (create on PC using KeePassX)? When not are you plan to make this function?
EDIT
Ups, didn't see that is for WP7.
Cool. I shall wait for the new version..I will post the video as soon as I get my hands on the new version. Ability to open link in the new browser, masterkey, ability to copy-paste will definitely make this application much more useful.Al the best.

Hey, I am jumpinh over here from the Epic Touch side. You have a popular following over there. Anyways, I had a feature request.
Would it be hard to add a custom box to search for a device that is not thought of yet. Suppose there was a SPH-XXXX that was coming out or even a HTC device. It would be great if there was a custom field. I know how to search it in the browser but your app would add some convenience for that purpose. Especially since it automatically checks.
Thanks

Sorry for bringing back a thread from the dead, but there are many new devices out there with RDFs...

Confirmed LG RDF for Viper - http://device.sprintpcs.com/LG/LS840/LS840ZVG.rdf LG appears to just go up one letter/digit ie LS840ZVD, LS840ZVE, LS840VZF, etc
Here is a guess on a Motorola variant of the rdfs....
Photon Q - http://device.sprintpcs.com/Motorola/XT897/
I don't know what the Motorola releases are named, but its worth a shot...
Basically if you go to http://device.sprintpcs.com/*manufactuer*/*model*/ a 404 means bad request and a 403 is forbidden, meaning there is a folder there, but file listing is not available.
It would be nice if the search was variable, IE give the user the opportunity to input the Device Manufacturer and Model into the search string. Let's say the Galaxy Note 2 becomes rumored as SPH-L720, give a search where the user can select Samsung and enter a model number and your app search on it.
Also, a submission option would be great to get new model numbers to the developer for addition to the app.
Maybe make a free and paid version with the paid version being able to search for user entered strings. I'd pay a few bucks for that...

Love all of the suggestions. Some have been previously mentioned and I had begun to look into them (User specified model number) but due to life getting in the way (Read having a full time job) I have been unable to make any headway towards another update.
If and when I get some time to get to work on this app again, I intend on doing a full rewrite in order to implement many of the features you have specified here.
Thanks for letting me know that there is still an audience out there that finds this app useful.
Thanks for the reply, I'll keep digging and adding info here.
Here are two confirmed Motorola rdfs for the Photon Q

Quick update.
I've started some basic work on a new version of RDF Seeker for Android.
The new version will include many of the features requested by users as well as some I have been thinking of since I first started RDF Seeker.
Some features which will be in the new version are:
1. User defined devices. No more hard coded devices!
2. Ability to view the latest RDF for a device.
3. Multiple device searching! No longer will you be forced to choose a single device to monitor. Monitor as many as you want!
One thing I would like to make people aware of is my intent make this app ad supported. Ad's will be minimal, and there will be a paid version ($1) which will remove them if you want. I know it's a bit of a bummer, but hey I have bills to pay ya know.
Do to the amount of changes needed to implement many of these features, I am going to have to re-imagine pretty much the whole GUI/Workflow so there still isn't an ETA.
Just wanted to let anyone out there who still uses this app know that work is being done!

AlarmPad now supports extensions. I will give you full support to develop one

Hi,
My name is Ricardo, I discovered the xda forums only recently so forgive me for being new here. I'm an independent developer, author of AlarmPad (id=com.mindmeapp.alarmpad on the Google Play Store - I can't post links here yet), an alarm clock app that lets you set alarms in context with your calendar events and the weather forecast. The app has now an alpha version that supports extensions and I would like to ask your help to consider creating one.
You can get this alpha version from the Play Store by joining its Google+ community at plus.google.com/communities/113108980221311144145. The extensions are meant to display information to the user when the alarm rings. A simple working example that displays random quotes is also available on the Play Store. It is open source so you can see how it works in detail here: github.com/riclage/quotes_extension. The API itself is also open source.
Interested? Here is what I offer:
- Support if you have any questions, run into any problems or need any kind of help
- Support to help you monetize your extensions (some ideas below)
- Support your extensions as much as possible on all the apps I release or update in the future
- Improvements to the app based on your feedback to give maximum visibility to extensions
- Active promotion of the first extensions developed inside the app, on the app description on the Play Store, on its official web page and when contacting the media
If you are interested in monetizing your extension, here are some ideas:
- Build an extension pack where only one or two of those in the pack work on the free version
- Make the extension work with limited options on the free version
- Make the extension work only on certain days of the week (e.g., does not work on Wednesdays) or that works only after midday (most users use their alarms in the morning) on the free version. When it doesn't work, you can show a message with a link to the Play Store to buy the pro version
- Have a trial period
If you have any other ideas and you think I can help accommodate it on AlarmPad, please send me a private message or post it below.
Thank you for your time,
Ricardo
