I have the same issue. Workaround is going to Google.com desktop version and initiating the search there.

[Q] Yahoo log in required?

Just today with my rooted but otherwise stock Captivate I am getting a log in screen for the default Yahoo home page.
Anyone else having this issue?
I guess I can just change my home page.
Are you on wifi or at&t service?

On AT&T. Haven't checked Wifi. Currently not on.
Do you have a login? Because my theory is that it wants to bring you somewhere other than under homepage.

I never needed a log in before. It just pulled up the ATT/Yahoo page. I did sideload an app recently, though I don't know how that would affect the default homepage login.
What app did you sideload?

It was a very simple app my brother-in-law developed for me. It just takes a couple of variables and calculates something involving an arctangent and displays it.
If you allowed it to access three internet, it might mess with the settings. Try uninstalling the app and see if that does anything, or, just change your homescreen to google or something lol.

Sounds like it's a vibrant ROM thing... you get the t-mobile/yahoo page as default.
Too strange though.

Yeah I will uninstall it to see. Can't imagine that it accesses the net, but my B-in-law is just getting his feet wet with Android programming.
<pause> Uninstalled it and still get log in screen. I will reboot.
<pause> Rebooted -- same problem. Guess I'll just pick a different homepage.

Help with stock browser

I just noticed that the stock browser displays websites in mobile mode and not desktop mode. This is very annyoing. Any way to set the browser to display sites as desktop form like Dolphin does? I have looked at the settings and can't figure it out.

Try ics browser from playstore, almost the same and can stay in desktop mode.

Thanks that seems to work, and now I am wondering why no videos play back on any browser.

type about:debug as url - then in settings a new debug menu is availible, you will find a option to change uastring ++ other funky things..
On ICS stock browser, you should be able to go to menu, then select Request Desktop View.

Yes, but doesn't stay permanently
The about:debug is the most "stable" method

[Q] tapatalk/xda premium apps

Is there a thread for these two apps? Ever since they released the new UI for these 2 apps I've had nothing but force close issues on startup. It never fails. It will open and look fine but as soon as I open a thread or start to scroll down it force closes. But the strange part is I can reopen the app immediately and it works fine. It does not matter which device I use. For awhile I thought it was because I was rooted but now I have an HTC one still haven't rooted or modified it in any way and still having the exact same issue. I have been reporting this crash since the day the update came out. I'm losing more and more respect with tapatalk with each update.
If this will not be fixed any time soon what are your opinions on a good alternative app?

I use both apps and dont have that problem.
I imagine you tried to uninstall both and wipe and re install.
Yea.. I have 3 phones and it happens on all three devices. Optimus G, HTC one, and galaxy s4.

Had that issue for a while, certain threads would kill the app every time. Haven't noticed it in a while though. I do have issues with trying to access the sprint one main thread through the favorites screen, where it just goes blank. No other major issues though. XDA premium, btw.
Sent from my beige box using xda premium
Are all these threads in sprint htc one?
Thats the only section im in right now and I just have never had an issue
For me it's the default screen. The notifications screen. It will display that screen but as soon as I tap an article (which yea it happens to be most sprint HTC one threads the app will shut down but I can immediately reopen the app and use every feature without an issue. But as soon as I turn my screen off or use another app or wait a bit before using xda premium or tapatalk it does it again..

It got worse with the 4.3 update. I'm having to use the old free version of the xda app.. from the looks of it after reading around a lot of other people are having the same issue. Is there a thread we can report these issues to? I've been reporting on every crash since I updated the app. With this "crashes upon first startup ###" the numbers are the amount of times I've reported the same crash. I'm at 167.

Xda app

Hi there, since some time I noticed that xda app doesn't load pictures from forum or load them randomly - some yes, some no and I can only see empty squares. I cleared cache, defaults but still same, no matter what internet source used. Anybody experienced the same issue?

Yep, experiencing the same here:
Doesnt matter how I am connected. Pics randomly do not load.
Try clicking on an empty pic, sometimes it will show you the pic.
Cheers, Ingo =;->

Same here. And I couldn't reply to anything - would just crash and restart. Changed to tapatalk (although wasn't the xda app also?).

The last time I went to XDA through an app I used Tapatalk instead of XDA because I already use Tapatalk for all the other forums. I did buy the XDA app to support XDA, I just don't like keeping so many different apps all for forums. I found that the Tapatalk app doesn't crash when I browse on it, if you wanted to try that?
i've noticed that it crashes when you are giving to many inputs i.e. tapping too much. If you avoid this, the app works well.
There is also an issue of tap detection. when i try to reply to someone i have to tap on the post below the one desired. :/ but it doesnt crash the app... so thats a plus right?

Appreciate it. Yeah, I've never quite gotten used to Facebook, still keep forums I've been on for years.... Tapatalk is a really nice way to organize them all. The only thing that drives me nuts is that when you go to download a file off of a forum it opens a browser which kind of disrupts the flow, but I think XDA app did the same thing. That would be a tremendously useful thing for the XDA app to do is manage XDA downloads, but for all I know it does that now, I haven't used the XDA app in awhile. These ATT ROMs are around a gig sometime... Hell to download on a mobile phone just because so many things seem to be able to break the download. And the download managers seem to hiccup sometimes with the site that are primarily used for hosting, don't know why.
I bought the xda premium app a couple years ago to show my support. But it does suck on this phone. Doesn't show pictures corectly. The search function is not very helpful. When I open it if it's been in the the background for a while it won't connect to the server to refresh. I have to close it and open it again. Also when leaving the app the animation lags really bad. I always thought it ironic that the XDA app was so buggy lol
**side note- I don't know the first thing about making apps or how hard they are to debug and make run smoothly on all devices. So I'm not hating. Just throwing it out there...
