What ROM are you using? If its not stock, did you try fix permissions? Reinstalling app? Wipe data for the XDA app
I'm using tapatalk (which is XDA app.. but it is not just limited to the XDA forum) and its working fine.

I see the same thing... both on stock rom on my SGT and on modaco rom on my SNS.

Just downloaded the XDA app and have no problems here.

I cleared the cache and deleted data but crash on search still happens
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App

Its weird, if I go from top menu,more, search it seems to work but if I search using the search button immediately after app launch, it crashes. Sometimes after searching via app menu, the search key seems to start working properly
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App

i get the crash from this exact sequence: load up an individual thread, leave the app for a bit, or pull down the status bar to do some other task, when you return, then press back, force close. its done this for a few months now, always.
other than that itst great and no issues.
also everyone remember to use the black theme! enormous battery saver, i LOVE forum browsing with the app cause it uses like only 110mA power draw. try the browser, its like 550mA.

Didn't realize there was a black theme, awesome ..
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App

Yeah, black theme works and looks great on the Nexus S.
Also, make sure you install from the market not titanium back up. Titanium is a GREAT app but after too many reinstalls of any app, the apps tends to bug out.

How do I get the black theme on the XDA app? Also, does anyone know the link to the black Google page? I had it on my Epic last year, but I don't recall what the direct link was. Thx!

It's in the app settings.
I forget the link to the black Google page. But cyanogen browser has an invert colors option so all white becomes black. A must have.

Thank you! Found the app settings, and changed it. And found the Google black, it's bgoog.com. There are a couple of others that offer a Google black search page, but this is the one I was looking for.
Wasn't able to find the Cyanogen browser, I am guessing this is a rooted feature? I am not rooted, and I am still learning about all this. Anyway, thx again!

Well I altered the battery driver for instant readings over the sense resistor, and wrote an app with graphing at 2 second sample rate.
Your best bet would be to use the current widget, but you will only get 1 minute intervals. You'd have to edit driver and compile your own kernel.
I've started looking at the nexus s driver, maybe we can get the same thing going and update the app to support it. Depends if its really worth it for people I guess.
Edit: duh I forgot to say your options stock is just use OS monitor and view the dmesg log, filter for "batt", and you'll at least get rough readings.

using the hardware search button to search forum FC, re-install doesn't solve the issue... any idea? i'm using CM7 RC1

Search (via hard-button) is 100% crash for me.

[APP Mod] YouTube v2.1.6 w/ Download Extention

It requires Gingerbread, no love to those who still run on Froyo. I'm sorry but if your stuck at Froyo or any older android version, perhaps you should consider a Nexus device (or a custom rom ;p!).

Anyone know a good widget for toggling mobile data?

Thanks. I bought "Screenshot It" because the trial app worked great. Unfortunately, the paid app doesn't work... all the screenshots come out with a red tint. "Screenshot" works, but won't save my settings. No big deal. I'm just glad that it works.
Triskite, have you tried Quicksettings? It's free in the Market. Quicksettings is very handy and has a button to turn mobile data on and off. I know you asked for a widget, but Quicksettings is so useful, I tought I'd mention it.
To switch 4G on and off I use LTE Switch by Geoffrey Buttercrumbs. It's not a widget, but works like one. All it does is open the built in Mobile network settings screen where you would normally switch LTE off. Just saves a few clicks, but it is handy.

This is my latest creation. The idea is accessing as many tools in an organized fashion as simply and quickly as possible (minimalist):
The only thing I have not included here is the other page (I use a 2 page model). The purpose for not showing that page is it has my minimal IM client and minimal Facebook. I achieved maximization of information in a small space by resizing the two clients. And yes, that's an LWP in the background.
The reason you see all those screen indicators on the top is because I was showing my dad how to add screens on my Android....lol

Is there any "launcher" that copies your original set up over? I want to move to something a little less bulky, but dont want to re set up everything.

Could it be a local problem? I´m also here in Germany and also can't update.
It is no problem at all to get to "My Apps" for sure. I think the others complaining also will get there without any problems.
The problem for me is, that I can't update a single app. Only if there is more than one app available to update, I can choose the update option.
With only one update for an app, I can only open the app description, open the app or deinstall the app.
Any Solution available?

Did Google forget about the "Quick Launch" keyboard shortcuts in ICS?

So I realize Google and android in general doesn't really care for those of us with phones that have physical keyboards but what ever happened to the quick Launch app shortcuts you could set in froyo and gingerbread? Possibly even since the eclair days under the applications section there was an option to set every key on your physical keyboard to launch an app basically making them all their own hot keys in a sense. Now with the new settings layout in ics there is no applications tab just the manage apps section but I can't seem to find the old quick Launch feature anywhere on any ics rom but the functionality is still there (hold search button and Press e for email or c for calculator, m for maps and such) which leads me to believe you can still do it just where the hell is the tab to set which app you want to launch to each key? Am I the only one who used these? Lol I posted a pic to show what I'm talking about... Sorry for the rant and bad punctuation but any info would be appreciated. Thanks

i miss my keyboard shotcuts

Nevermind I figured out a workaround via Google. Pain in the ass there has to be a way to unhide it but if anyone is interested the steps I took were...
1. Must be using either nova or apex launcher
2. Long press on home screen and select shortcuts
3. Select activities (for whichever launcher you are using nova or apex)
4. Scroll down and select settings
5. Scroll down and select Quick Launch (the first one) and it should create the shortcut icon on your desktop
The shortcut takes you to the old quick Launch menu that allows you to assign the keys but I don't know where Google hid it thru the regular menu. Hope this helps anyone as much as it's gonna help me if not then what the hell you read it for? Lol

Glad to see you found a work around! Just to clarify a bit... ICS was/is not intended for the Droid 3. The only reason we have it is because Hashcode has put in a ton of time on it. As far as I know, Motorola has no intentions on releasing ICS on our phone (the Bionic will be as close as we get), and the only "slider" devices to get 4.0 will be the Xperia ones. Luckily, we still run a Gingerbread kernel, and that's probably why keyboard shortcuts still work.
