Welcome to the new AndroidForums (Round 2)

[Clementine_3]

What was your screenshot of? I have no presentation like that anywhere with the too-wide badges on the right side.

BTW we each deserve 100 points.

... Thom

I'm using Chrome on a Moto X Pure. It used to be all squishy but isn't now, finally.
I'll take that 100 but will be happy with 1 haha

Can the links to toggle between forum announcements be moved closer to or integrated into the Announcement bar. They look like breadcrumbs or something else being so far away.

 

[codesplice]

I'm getting an HTTP 400 error when trying to sign in with my Google account. Was that perhaps broken with the switch to HTTPS?

 

[Phases]

Good catch!

 

[PyroSporker]

Had an odd occurrence today when logging in. I was prompted to confirm my account...
Im not sure if this ensued after something you guys have been working on or if it was something I did. I entered an incorrect username with a correct password - once, not a multi attempt lockout.

Directly after the huge security concerns a few years ago I nuked my email address from the site here and left the field blank

That's why.. yea were working to validate emails right now.

(feel free not to answer this if you do not feel that it is ok to reveal the timeline or put info out within the public knowledge)
I'm curious, was the recent security breach that you just revealed today, pre-HTTPS or post-HTTPS?

I confirmed/validated my email a week back, is it ok to nuke my email address from my profile again? Or will this cause potential issues moving forward?

(totally joking here because .gif wall broke my mobile internet on my phone)
One last thing, If I go VIP I can block ads, can I also block .gifs? j/k
I'm quite pleased that you guys have gone HTTPS

 

[Thom]

I'm confused (again) ... Trending Topic ...

The number 2 item in the list of 50 is Motorola Moto G Turbo.
That channel contains one thread (13 posts and 287 views).
That thread is a conversation between one user and me about battery usage.
The last post to that thread was 8 days ago.

What make that channel a "trending topic"?

It is now three weeks since the last post. 418 views. Still just two people (someone else and magnificent me). Now #3 in Trending Topics.

I still have the same questions ... what makes this a Trending Topic and what makes this #3 in the list?

it was pre-https and if you validated a week ago you are good to go.

... Thom

It must be tied to users because it is not showing as trending topic for me.

 

[Thom]

I have absolutely no idea what dictates what gets displayed.

And now ... after being there for over a week ... it has just disappeared.

The questions have not disappeared though ... how does something get included in this list and what determines the position in the list?

... Thom

(update the next day)

 

[almath]

Can topics with new posts be at the TOP of the refreshed timeline?

Edit: I see that already happens..never mind.. 😂

Edit again: Tried to post a gif with this post, is it me or is it not showing up?

 

[Unforgiven]

Bah! They discontinued tapatalk but no iOS app? This is just plain mean for those of us on multiple platforms!

I've seen this sentiment expressed more than once, and what with Channels being about more than Android it may be food for thought to pass up the chain.

 

[bberryhill0]

I'd get the Android app solid first.

 

[Unforgiven]

I'm not paying the developers,

 

[septembersrain]

I'd be okay with donating money towards an iOS app. I'm literally sitting on about 3 iOS devices and 4 Androids. However my primary is currently an iOS due to getting that Note 7 disappointment.

 

[lunatic59]

I'm literally sitting on about 3 iOS devices and 4 Androids.

That's got to be uncomfortable.

 

[septembersrain]

That's got to be uncomfortable.

Haha! They sleep with me and I've woken up with a Note 3, iPhone 6s and even an iPad Pro under my pillow.

But seriously, in my foreseeable future after the Note 7 fiasco and the T-Mobile variants of the S7 being locked bootloaders (Well have to see on the next S8/Note X), I'm probably going to be staying on the dark side.

 

[bberryhill0]

But you still want to read Android Forums. To see if anything gets better?

I'm waiting for the "Samsung galaxy something has an unlocked bootloader for T-Mobile!".

So I'm keeping my hopes up.

 

[bIOforger]

Sorry if this has been discussed already but how do i login when using IE11 ? The conversations, notifications and profile dropdown icons are all missing?

 

[Thom]

I use IE 11. If you are referring to the icons at the upper right on the page ... zoom in and out (for me Ctrl/mouse wheel) slowly you will see that they eventually appear and then disappear.

The trick is to zoom to a size that displays them and stay there.

My GUESS is that you will find they appear when you increase the size you have been using for years by just a small amount.

DKTM (don't kill the messenger)

[bIOforger]

Yep got it thanks, 130% required :s which means the site is unreadable in most cases, at least i can login now lul
