Why this thread works so bad lately?! - XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Sooooo slow!
Sometimes unable to open this over WiFi!
Whats up?!

Well I recently asked this question in the questions and answers forum and they told me that the users who view this site and stay signed on are a huge population and that our servers sucks and we need to donate.

Ok I'll donate.
Hope it'll be better.

Really painfully slow -regularly (especially at start of EU and US daytime)
Have you noticed the search function seems all but useless?
I've tried searching for specific words that I know appear in a thread and just keep finding nothing
...Or is it just me?

Nah .. search really works bad .. why do you think same threads keep popping all the time ? People are not THAT stupid.

iam really struggling to view XDA site at all, takes up to 2 mins to load this thread

it's strange considering that activity has tremendously slowed down on all forums. Nobody is even posting anymore, atleast nothing new.

You would be surprised.....

It's strange because I sort of notice that not as much people are being active on the forums anymore. So how can the servers still be so slow?
But then if this is the case, perhaps they aren't active in these forums just because of the lag.
Good news. XDA is blazing fast now. I don't know if XDA upgraded their servers or if the difference is so great that it's unreal. But now XDA is amazing fast.

well... it's only 6:30 here in EU. wait few more hours and then judge.

Yeah it is amazing but anyone who signs up has to wait for Beta 2 which they have not announced. I wish they would have designed the touch screen version buttons a bit bigger to assume you are using your fingers and not a stylus. But it is by far the best browser, nothing else comes close.

Seconded... not to mention that Skyfire is garbage since it won't connect to the server more frequently that 50/50.
and the point of thread is?? half of us here can't even get skywire and we all know from reviews that it is supposed to be a great browser.
thanks anyways for the redundant post.

I have been using it everyday for the past month, I have only lost connection once so far.
The point was referring people to go sign up for the beta, I don't see how that is worthless and people who don't know about Skyfire are never going to find it in a search.
I thank you for cluing me in to skyfire, had never heard about it till now. Will definitely be trying it out.
I would suggest ignoring the thread nazis. Seems they are eager to up their post count by pointing out redundant threads, but when real help is requested, they are nowhere to be found.
I still don't understand why threadspace on this forum is at such a premium that every time someone wants to discuss something they are clamped down.

Thread space (notice I didn't make the same grammatical error as you) is not at a premium here. However, when someone does not search before creating a new thread, they contribute to making the search function less "functional".
Take Skyfire as an example. You said you had never heard of it before this thread, so you don't see this as a redundant thread. But... if the OP had done a search for "Skyfire" before creating this thread, he would have found the others, been able to post in them, and then it would have gotten moved up near the top of the forum since it had a new post in it!
I'll admit that some of my posts are nonsensical; but I have helped enough people on this site to entitle myself to the occasional raspberry post.
Skyfire does not rock. I can't even watch videos on youtube. The advertisement showed a video of a basketball court. The vid played perfect. I have yet to match that on my phone. Youtube vids play with the lipsync effect. I barely use it. Anyway many threads made about this topic.

Be patiant, it was the same way for me at first, and now the videos play flawlessly for me. Also videos play better using WiFi.
@ notatriofan
LOL, you make me lauff.
Not knowing about something, I wouldn't have known to search for it. And since, obviously by my join date, I've only been here days, not months, I would not have seen a buried thread about it.
And, if you are such an expert on my posts, you would have read exactly where I have helped someone, even after only being here 2 days, and without berating them for asking.
Gotta love this place. hehe
Thanks again for the skyfire heads-up!

Has it been discussed several times over the last couple of days? He specifically said he's only been for a few days. Ease up on the espressos there, I seriously don't think I've ever seen a brand new user get ridiculed for thanking someone for helping them. Ouch.

Wooot just got accepted to use Skyfire beta!

I was sitting here, deleting SMS messages from my inbox, when I got a SMS from skyfire, telling me that I can create an account and download the browser now.
haha ive been waiting for this!

I guess it has been awhile since I have been on, so excuse my outburst. That would be annoying, though I think that some people (NotaTreoFan) take it a little to far when they bash people for these kind of topics. (And Treo, if you are reading this, I know you have not been involved in this thread, you just came to mind) In all honesty I think they need to create a "Social" board, but that is just me.
LOL I got mine yesterday its alright I guess the only time I can get it to work is after 10PM or so and on wi-fi cant get it to work at all over a data connection.

What did I do this time? I didn't start the bashing until other people started their $h!t. If you check my post in the thread your are referring to, I tried to stop by saying that I was done before it causes bad blood and gets personal. When a random a55h0l3 decided to continue the attacks, then he brought it upon himself.
What is the difference between this ans Thunderhawk?

He failed at not doing the slightest hint of research, registering here and then expecting his questioned answered by the same follks who answer this same question daily. His only other post here shows his razor-sharp intellect.
You failed at keeping your nose out.
No one here is a winner.
FYI desi_prodigy, the camera on the TyTnII has many known issues. Spending some time reading the numerous threads about it here, and on the wikis will help you understand more.
LOL,
and congratulations too for posting in the wrong board!
the reason the camera is slow is due to low light, if you would go to an area with more light, then the camera will function like normal

Hi and welcome,
It is true that this problem is definitely well known. A a new user, you may want to read around first, as this board has covered probably most of the problems .
here you go, please read (if not already found ) this thread. There's a manual trick working very well.
Regards.

Navigation in US now available!! AndNav2 for USA!

AndNav2
There is a new version of AndNav available for Android. Here's a video:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KOfKpjEpRa8
Looks good but from what I can tell, maps aren't going to be the greatest.
At least there will be a decent alternative to using the google maps which require an internet connection. Sometimes I just want to use the GPS without the additional expense.
Just tested on 6.0r1 rom, seems to be working great: http://www.andnav.org/index.php/en/community-forum?task=viewtopic&id=292&p=5
Make sure you donate some money to these guys...they've done a lot of work and delivered something great to the community!
Awesome news ! Been waiting for this myself.
so whens the server gonna be up for free navigation?
i just went to the site and they havent release it for US yet.
It's kind of on the down low right now while they make sure all the kinks are worked out of the new server. I've been playing with is since yesterday and it's looking pretty sweet.
No, I'm not going to post a link. If you're really interested you should be able to find it on their site and I don't want to encourage the overloading of their new server. I'm sure once they make it a bit more public the news will be all over.

I've been using it a bit since yesterday as well. It works, but there is a lot of communication between the G1 and their servers to make things work.
Look in the downloads area for Trek buddy it creates a lot of the map packs. Tiles.
The site is kinda scattered so I would look around in the forum and yes you do have to be a member to see links.

Leaving XDA

Hello GUIse,
I know this may seem a little sudden due to me releasing an update of my theme literally 2 minutes ago, but, the timing couldn't of been any worse. I've received some sort of bad news (to me) and I feel I don't have the strength to keep supporting/making themes anymore. Plus, I now have a new job which is taking most of my time up anything. So, due to these 2 statements above, I can no longer create themes as much as I would love to. This is probably the wrong section but I only posted into the SGSII section anyways. I would like to thank everybody for supporting me. Especially Pulser, who forgave me over the Infusion controveusy.
I'm sorry to B3311 & Pele as I cannot support the Black Android Theme anymore, and sorry to my donators.
I hope to see you in the future.
Take it easy,
NitrozK (My Last Post.)
you don't need to leave XDA, just come by every now and then when you feel like it.
you are not obligated to it.
as long as people have access to your previous work, they can continue from where you have left off.
i myself was off for like a whole month before i was able to continue modding due the similar issues from my real life

It's not only that it's just this theming business is stressing me out. Don't get me wrong, I know how to theme like the back of my hand, but due to this news and my new job I only have time for me if you get what I mean?
we will miss you m8
Good luck nitrozk. Hope everything will be fine eventually.
Really appreciate your work. But there are more important things in life, like life itself.
Take care!
We will miss you.
But you still can use XDA, even if you are not developing anymore.
Sorry to hear that buddy.. U are welcome here anytime
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
Did Samsung buy you out too? ha.
I don't know you nor have I had contact with you but as with any other fellow sgs2 and xda members I wish you all the best and can only hope you get the chance to return soon! All the best!
all the best man, thx alot
I hope you will find a way to absorb and overcome the bad news and possibly some good will come from it. Good luck and have fun with the new job!
Live long and prosper. <\\//

That's sad dude.One of the non-noob guys leaving XDA instead of the noobs is sad itself,but developers/themers leaving is too bad.Anyway,hope all's good and wish you the best.You can come back literally anytime.
I don'y know what the bad news is...but something good always comes out of bad situations.
I'm no Religion freak but prayers always help...in one way or another.
Good luck homie...
Stay... Dont be a gaylord....
Sad to hear, but Real Life comes first.
Take care - you'll be sorely missed.
Didnt u want to leave before when u got caught stealing? I mean dude tell people in ur theme thread ur leaving...

Are you f**cking kidding me? All I do is my best in this forum but yet people slag me off for it. I'm telling people because if I did go without a trace I'd get shed loads of PM's about it. My life isn't going as planned as yours is (obviously). Please explain to me why I am an attention seeker? So, I'm like every other dev in this forum then? I don't think I am a celebrity, I do my work, people like it, end of. Nothing else to it. Sorry "Mr Perfect". I didn't want to give a reason as to why I have to leave but you gave me no choice. Someone close to me died yesterday 2 minutes after I released a new version of the Black Android Theme.
Good riddance.
