[Q] Google Chrome error for XDA - Nexus 7 General

I suddenly am getting errors from Google Chrome saying that this site (XDA) has been infected with malware that could damage my PC. It gives me the choice to close it or continue. I took a chance and continued, but it has me bothered. Anyone else getting this error?:fingers-crossed:

Just tried on mine, and it was completely normal. No warnings.

Same here.

As I said in the OP, this is happening on my laptop (PC), not on the Nexus 7.

If you look in the general xda thread, there are some conversations going on about it. Hopefully it will get resolved shortly.

I ran Malwarebytes and it found nothing, but if it is too new for the scan update it won't be found. I hope it isn't anything to worry about. I'd hate to think I got something bad from XDA of all places.

I think it has to do with some people's signatures.

Google Nexus 7 disabled (shipping never received)

Anybody knows what happens to your Nexus 7 after you reported lost/stolen? What does Google disables? How long does it take for Google to send you a new one?
Called Google and they say the 2 level department that handles losses usually takes 3-4 days for them to reply to you after you reply with "I CONSENT" which authorizes Google to disable your previous device. I am on day 4 so far nothing...
What exactly are they going to disable if I never received it?

I don't think they can technically disable it. They probably just use the information for warranty purposes in case the tablet is ever RMA'd and so your not held responsible for any unauthorized play store purchases. Now I could be wrong but this is most likely the case.

Thanks for some of the info but still then why do they state on the email it will be disabled? Any other thoughts?
Sent from my DROID RAZR using xda app-developers app
I would think they remove any association with your Google account on the servers and might ban the device from being attached to your Google email/account.
It takes them a couple of days to contact the shipping company and do an investigation. They need to see if there was any signature, where the driver left the package, etc.
If they find your claim is on the up and up, I'm sure you will be sent a replacement shipment shortly.
Good luck.

Good question. Unless Google sends some sort of signal to the device once it connects to the internet that locks down the device, its hard to see how they could disable it.

How to port webOS

I read an article where it stated that since webOS went open source. Some developers are succesful in porting it ro android devices. I want to know how true it is and is there any flashable for our galaxy note???

It will be impossible without proper sources for hardware drivers.
but you can try

Web os itself may be fine to import, but it's still so new, as previous poster said it's the kernel that needs the real work per device.

I was going to start a thread on this, but the search function turned this one up, recently Open WebOS has been spotted in the wild on a Galaxy Nexus and the Asus Nexus 7, so does this bring us any closer to a Note port? or even better a way to dualboot both similar to the HP Touchpad would be awesome! are their any devs actively working on this since i can't seem to find any info around the forums / internet in general, but i think there would be quite a lot of interest and plenty would be willing to test it if someone with the skills was able to make it happen
I like webos because its plain and simple and can do the basic required work if u succed in getting any info regarding its port then feel free to post.

Sorry to revive but if I had WebOS on my GT-N7000 it'd be like heaven in my palm!! We can't allow the Nexus to have this over us! Sorry to say but IMHO, WebOS smoothness and multitasking ability straight kills both android and iOS! (I have an iPhone, Note I, and Palm Pre). Sign me up if we need a team to get this going on our n7000.
Its also my wish to get the webos on my note or any other mobile device. I am now fed up of android and their spying data collection stuff. The permissions just feaks me out when a simple game says it needs to read the phone book and call logs. Wtf where the hell an app needs to get these permissions. The second is the location thing. they just make us use their os because of the wow factor. Ignoring what its doing to UA

Galaxy note Help **REWARD**

Dear all,
I have recently rooted my Samsung galaxy note using this method:www .cursed4eva.com/root-galaxy-note/ which worked very well and i had no issues.
I then installed Beats audio pro from the play store and thats when i started to get issues like crashes and such so i uninstalled the app, then thats when i started to get a error message saying "Process system not responding" which would result in me losing control of my keyboard and i completely lost service and was unable to make calls etc(O2 UK).
I then performed a factory wipe and cleared the cache but this has made matters worse now when i reboot it only shows up for a couple of minutes then shows the "process system not responding" error message then goes to a blank screen with only the two lights at the bottom showing and i cant use my phone at all.
Please Help ill paypal anyone who can get my phone to work again.

Not sure what the point of the last thread was. It's possible that the hot fixed had a virus? Be careful about the sites you choose for Android tweaks, it's incredibly susceptible to viruses. I could be way off here.

Am I missing something here. Where did the virus come from?
It's not difficult to add things into an app. They're saying that someone could have embedded a virus in what he used for root, to hijack his phone.

It's the supersu . zip from xda forums.
He did do what looks like a factory rs from stock ICS rooted.

Problem with XDA app

I can't seem to post or respond to posts on here on the XDA app on my One says something about a security feature is missing, no problem on my Nexus 7 or i didn't have any problem on my old Galaxy S3, any ideas why this is happening?

It isn't the app; I use it almost daily from my One.
What else could it be, tried uninstalling and downloading ago but get the same message.
Everything else is ok, can read posts and subscribe, etc but cannot see a function to respond to or create a thread?

Sorry, no ideas here. However I am using the premium app, not the free one. Don't know if that makes any difference (I don't see why it should).
I get this same error sometimes but not very often. I just clear app cache and data and then it works fine again. Not sure if it'll work for you but it's worth a try

The app cache! Doh! Why didn't I think of that...
I'm afraid clearing cache, etc doesn't solve the issue still the same problems :-\

Try tapatalk 4 beta. I'm using it and it's working like a charm. Sometimes I get the security issue but closing it (pressing back when on the main/home screen) and then opening again works.
It's already available in the play store
Remember it's a beta though so it has its tiny issues (smilies don't show up correctly, they all show as the smiley or else in text) but it works and looks and feels very new and stylish
The only other thing I could suggest then would be to mention it in the XDA app thread. You may be able to get a solution in there.

XDA app and Amazon app get stuck?

Has anyone else noticed that the XDA app sometimes loads a thread immediately and then other times it gets "stuck" where it can take a very long time to load? When it gets stuck, I can click back and then click the same thread again, which sometimes will load it quickly. I notice the exact same behavior in the Amazon app when clicking a product. It happens on both WiFi and LTE and has happened with every version of android so far on the N6.
I use XDA and Amazon all the time so this is a particularly frustrating issue for me.
UPDATE: here is a video demonstrating the problem with the Amazon app:
Amazon App getting stuck on Nexus 6: https://youtu.be/bjDayQJVV3g
Which XDA app? Theres like a million of them. One of the tapatalk versions?
I'm using the XDA premium app.
I'm not convinced that it's an issue specific to the app though because I didn't notice this on my Nexus 4 and the exact same issue happens in the Amazon app.

XDA premium is based on Tapatalk and Tapatalk has problems on this forum. Its specific to this forum too, because taptalk works fine on other forums I use. I think the API on XDA for Tapatalk is outdated and since XDA are working on their own new XDA app (XDA One), they're probably not going to be too bothered to fix it.
Not sure about Amazon
Tapatalk has gone into the toilet over the years at this point I would honestly pay to go back to an old version. The iOS version is such a monstrosity and just so horrible its at the point of being unusable. if the thread I want actually comes up and displays I feel like I've won something.
Sent from my Google N6 on VZ
Thanks for the replies. Seems like this might be something a new XDA app could fix.
Here is a quick video I made showing the Amazon issue:
Amazon App getting stuck on Nexus 6: https://youtu.be/bjDayQJVV3g
The first 2 products open fast and then the third gets stuck. I click back and re try 5 times and on the last try, it opens fast like the first 2 did. Anyone else have this issue with Amazon?
Yes you are correct ..Those are the worse two apps to get "stuck".. Only other app is WWE SUPERCARD..Every other app is fine..I do believe it is app issues not phone related.
