[Q] Need a App for sharing a URL - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I just browse on my S II all the day but when it comes to download something, I prefer my PC. So, open the link on my S II's Dolphin Browser and Tap on Share Link. Now, few option comes after that from which I have to select via which app I want to share it, like Facebook, Twitter, etc. I dont see the Kies Air option (you dont see that too, right?).
Well, the question, is there an app on market via which I can share the URL on my PC?

Why not just send it via message (GTalk, Skype, etc.) from your phone's account to another PC's account?
Long press the URL, mark everything and copy it to the clipboard.
Then open the message app you prefer and paste the URL into a message to "yourself".
Then switch to the message application on your PC and copy the URL into your preferred browser.
Not very "elegant", but this should work.

I use "pocket" on phone n pc. Give it a try, it's free in play store.

[Q] Friendcaster Help?!

So on both the regular and paid version, when I open Friendcaster, it brings me to the internet mobile version and tells me to log in...
Any ideas? Facebook also says when I log in from it, it says I am logging in from Washington when I am in California... Help?!
You have to sign in and allow friendcaster to post on your wall and all that stuff. Once you log in it will bring up the Friendcaster application. Idk about the location thing though, sorry.

i'm using the stock rom XWKI4 with Ginger 2.3.4
I've tried to clean the cache, but nothing has changed
I've also tried emptying the cache, but nothing has changed.
Also today I downloaded and updated the facebook application
Did any of you guys try to upload it through the website using the browser ? Try uploading on a browser ( go to desktop version of site ) , using 3G , then using WiFi then report back here.
I just tried it and I can load both through mobile and web site!

Well it's obvious then , the Facebook application has a bug... There's nothing you can do about it, rather than wait for an update that might fix it. It's not a big deal anyway, I guess.
You could go to the market and leave a review of the app and tell about your problem so other users can check it and get it to update fast.

I think swiftkey, myalbum and also most apps use the mobile website to login and share content and the mobile site has problems :S the login screen never appears on screen
Even if I try to upload a picture in m.facebook.com it fails :S
update: also try to use google public DNS and a lot of settings on router and the same.
Can not login from android browser or any app or widget which use browser based login form (facebook app can login and all but can NOT upload pics) tested on my 3 android devices :S
Social hub can log in but can not upload pics aswell.
All apps are stuck on loading login page.
Also try with older facebook app (1.7.2) and the same, this looks like an issue with facebook page or with my router i guess :S
You boys are lucky.
I can't upload photos either, but in the latest Facebook release I can't update my status, or checkin!
That's with stock rom, cyanogen, wicked, checkrom the lot.
Tried flashing numerous roms to get around it.
This is the first place I've seen or heard of where anyone else is having a similar problem (at first I figured it wasn't the app, and something I'd done on my phone).
Older releases of the facebook app work. Guess I'll just wait and see if a new release comes out to address the issues.
OK today my cousin comes to home and I try to upload a pic from his S2 and the same sht
I think is a problem with this fckin router :S
This only affect to my mobile devices, on PC works well :S
Update, today I try it with 3G and all works pretty good so is a something about my router :S
Damn this sht is brand new 2wire from telmex.
I think I will call the support.
Hello everyone, I have given some checks to try to understand where is the problem with uploading. I have 2 with Gs2, but not rooted, and they haven't this problem!
Inviato dal mio GT-I9100 usando Tapatalk
I also have this problem with ics. Downgraded to gb and it works fine.
The problem seems more widespread than just facebook. I cant upload to any app on 3g. Tried dropbox, google+, facebook, google drive and even email attachments. just gets stuck starting to upload then fails.
Would really appreciate some help this is really annoying me!

Facebook Photo Save

Why can't I save a Facebook photo while tap/holding on a picture I'm viewing?
When I click the menu button, i have the option to share, or assign as a contact photo, and even to Dropbox but now on the device.
Seems to be specific for my GS4 and a buddy's GS3.
Ang work around?
Its not your phones....ive had the htc one s, gs3, and now the gs4....its a facebook thing...not the phone. I believe there is an app on the market that will allow you to download pics.
Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk 2
I just assumed because my buddy has a DROID incredible and CAN save them by holding on the photo, another friend with some kind of Motorola running Android that also can, seems like a stupid problem, I know it's available in the Facebook app, i'll check version numbers of their specific facebook apps.
I've never been able to do this on any of my previous Droids or Tablets with the official facebook app. The free-version 3rd party facebook app, FriendCaster allows you to save pictures.

Yeah, all you can do it log on from the browser and copy it. Or else you can take a screenshot of it and sent it as a picture.

Use my way to share post from facebook app to whatsapp
1. make one dummy account in facebook with gmail id
2. now come to your original account in fb app
3. make your post
4. share with that dummy id
5. go to dummy gmail account
6. find facebook notification mail of ur shared post
7. now you can copy each text from the mail and paste it into whatsapp type bar.
8. walla u done it.!
You can blame it to Facebook because it has disabled copy option in the app. But still there are some methods available bu using them you can copy and paste from FB app.
1. For Android you can use Copy Paste - Android app
2. For iOS you can use FBCopyTXT app.
3. Or use any OCR to scan text from image.
4. And you can use FB messenger also to copy desired text.
If you need more detailed information then it's here.

This is an iPhone limitation. Should not be an android limitation.

I don't post often because I usually do some searching and find my answer. Not the case this time.
When I had an iPhone I was annoyed that it was not possible to choose defaults to override certain functions. For instance, you can't change the default browser. That's just one example, but there are many more.
After switching to android I thought I'd be all set. And for the most part I am. However, I still have not figured out how to modify one behavior that's bothering me: control of what happens when hyperlinks are clicked. The particular example I am thinking of right now is eBay.
I have the eBay app installed. So, whenever I click an eBay link - whether it's in a browser, an email, or another app - I want it to open the eBay app. I don't ever want it to open the eBay web page in the browser. Same goes for all the other apps I have installed. Another example - using the xda app. If I have the xda app installed and I get an email that includes a link to a thread here on xda, I want to view it in the xda app, not in a browser. Ever.
How do I make sure this behavior always works the way it should? It appears that some apps will ask what behavior you want to use as default. But that doesn't seem to work 100%. Our the setting isn't sticking. I don't know.
its not androids fault, its the app/web developers... tumblr makes great use of defaults but no other app seems to...

Is it a limitation caused by the "from" app or the "to" app?
For instance, I just got an email that there was a reply to this thread. When I click on the link in the Gmail app, there is no option to use the xda forum app to open the link. Is that a fault of the Gmail app, or the xda app?
I'd say the "to" app. I use tapatalk and any xda link gives me the option to open the forum in the app
Sent from my SCH-I545 using Xparent BlueTapatalk 2
I say its both both sides can be programmed to do it. the app can intercept links and webpages can add app specific buttons
tumblr has app specific buttons (open in app) and YouTube intercepts most links (thus when you click a YouTube link the app opens)
