I am trying to create forum specific shortcuts for XDA Premium app.
Looking around the net everyone I've found so far says to use AnyCut or Folder Organizer for custom shortcuts. This does not produce the desired product.
There are two actions for XDA app (intents?) listed, but they are not identified as to which is which, I will explain my findings so far.
The device I am currently using is SGSII Epic 4G Touch, but if I can get it working, should not be device specific.
So on my SGSII if I long press and select Shortcuts, scroll to the bottom I can choose "xda premium". This is not a shortcut to the app, but creates a shortcut to individual main forums. For this example I'll choose Developer Forums.
The icon created says only "Shortcut to", and I can't read the rest. This is annoying.
Alternatively, long press -> shortcuts -> AnyCut -> Activity
There are 2 "xda premium" options.
The first one will create a regular shortcut to the app, the second one creates a shortcut to the function that creates a shortcut to the different forums. This icon can be named whatever I want, however, when I click it I have to choose a forum, then that creates a new shortcut called "Shortcut to"
This is useless.
The effect with Folder Organizer is similar. Additionally, with either app, on my phone the links I create do not show up in the Edit Existing(anycut) or Shortcuts(Folder Organizer) menus in the respective programs.
I've found this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=6081250
Which addresses watching the adb logs for the action being performed, which I could then use (hopefully) to create a custom action in AnyCut.
Currently I'm at work, I can get the SDK installed, and it would probably take all freakin day to get installed.
So now to the question.
Would anyone happen to know what "intent" is required to create shortcuts to individual forums through the XDA app?
Maybe there is a far simpler way of accomplishing the same thing AND having shortcuts with reasonable names.
***Mods please move to appropriate forum, I didn't know where else to post something like this***
Got SDK installed and ADB working (finally ugh)
Code:
adb logcat > output.txt
so I have the output of me clicking on the stupid "Shortcut to"
but when I look through it for anything that contains "xda" I haven't found anything that calls to a specific forum
There's a bunch of places where "com.quoord.tapatalkxdapre.activity" occur
Not sure what it is exactly I'm looking for.
64 views of this thread, I'm assuming no one that knows has viewed yet.
still digging..
Does this mean anything to anyone?

Today I found one in windows store via this link
http://www.windowsphone.com/s?appid=2e25196a-1cf9-4c39-9caa-0fe52302008f
After a while the tile stop working and it seems that the app needs update for the delay minutes between the tile and the phone clock. Why developing such app seems hard.. HTC made one already??
I read that the tile will be refreshed automatically in minimum of 30minutes due to a limitation in SDK. Unless you bother to refresh it manually every once in a while, I don't think it is meaningful to develop a "live" tile clock at this time.
Correct. the minimum tile update cycle is 30 minutes or 15 minutes if you use external web link to help update the tile. Such limitation makes it impossible to implement any kind of useful clock tile.
As for HTC, phone makers and carriers have the privilege to create special apps that don't have the same limitation as 3rd party apps.

I'm using a Nokia Phone (Lumia 920). I also downloaded HTC clock app (XAP file) from windowsphone store and I want to deploy it to my phone. But I got an error message: "XAP file is invalid".
Does anyone know anyway to get HTC app on other windowsphone 8 devices?
I really like the HTC clock from my 8S... I would absolutely love to have it also on my Lumia 920...
It's my first and very simple application... I actually did it for myself, but also wanted to share it then on the store (why not?..)

Hi Everyone
TrafficWatcher is app for monitoring traffic on your favorite traces.
You can find out delay and traffic congestions on your way only by one click. Or you can set up automatic notification and app warns you at specified time in a case of any problem on your way.
This is my first app for windows phone, so I will be glad for any suggestions on improvement. It's certainly not perfect, but I'm trying to continuously improve it and eliminate possible bugs
The trial version has the full functionality and all features, but contains ad.

Are you the same guy who made the old grindrmod?
How this work?
It's good like "old" version?
So far works great, thanks! Is there anything new we should be aware of coming from the other version?
A couple of things :
- I do notice that not all profiles with chats have the orange border.
- would it be possible to add swipe across screens (I think previous version of app or mod had this)?
Thanks and great job!
Everytime it's opened, it can't get a location as 'I have no Internet connection' apparently, when obviously I have.

There is a paid feature now which too closely matches the active chats border, so it has been removed.

The mod introduced that far before the app did. One might argue that they took it and monetized it from @GrindrGuy. Does this mean that if the app starts mimicking other features introduced by the mod to monetize from them that the mod will just start taking them away? Nah, I'm against this move... You and GrindrGuy ultimately decide, but I wanted to share my two cents.

If you want to get "super technical" about it, this feature was introduced years ago in the original app but taken away around v3.0.
EDIT: Since I do not have Grindr Xtra, if someone would like to actually send me screenshots of what this feature looks like, I may be able to re-work it so that the module provides a similar feature that is not a direct replica of the paid feature.
I found a bug.
If i see a fresh face and hi back, module ask ne to "undo last refresh"

Oh, wow - didn't know that! Here I thought @GrindrGuy was the genius behind it!
Don't have Xtra, but something to bring back that function making it different enough might be to have a little circle with counter in it: currently app gives you a yellow circle with the number of new messages. You could play with that idea: just a yellow dot if there are viewed messages, or include the number (?).
Along the same lines, I have a suggestion: In my area you often get a few users who don't upload a photo and you just see the generic black profile pic with no user name. Would there be any harm / Would it be possible to give those profiles a random name (user1123) so as to know which user is which?
I'm still used to swiping left/right to switch between profiles and inbox. It's annoying you actually have to tap on those now. Dunno if you can revert that behavior.
Say you're chatting with someone and you want to go back to "nearby" view. you have to go back and then tap on "nearby". It might be interesting to have that navigation bar with nearby/inbox/favs persistant throughout the app, with it autohiding and showing back up when you scroll down. This way there's an easy way to always go back to home, and we also always see if there's a new message notification.
Another suggestion I had way back when was to further customize this navbar: for example, I'd love to order it to have first favs, then nearby, then inbox, and being able to swipe between the views. At this point it might also be nice to have the option of having the navbar either on the (new) bottom or (old) top.
Sorry for the long post! Thanks for your efforts, and it's also fun to think about UI design like this!

That's actually how the GrindrMod feature used to work, by "hijacking" the unread messages count to always display the yellow border regardless of whether the messages were unread or not.

I'd rather not alter the UI to that extent since there may be some underlying reason for them changing it in the first place (one person suggested that the toolbar was moved to the bottom in order to encourage accidental clicks on the banner ads).

From today Grindr crash after some seconds, but no problem without the module.
How can I send a log?

Take my money!
Looks like the app attachment was removed from this thread? I'm running 3.24.x or something just so Grindrmod will work. I'm being told when I open Grindr that I can only use that version for two more days until it is mandatory that I update to the latest version. At which point grindrmod will not work.
So, I'm looking forward to an update =_=

Thanks! I didn't know it was a whole new app there. The links to it seem dead in the xda app with the xposed modules.
@GrindrGuyNYC, is it possible to amend the photo viewer activity (when tapping on a profile picture) to always show the Android soft-keys? Every time I tap on a profile photo to open it, I have to swipe up to show the soft-keys to go back. Starts getting annoying really fast. Thanks.
PS. GrindrMod isn't listed on Xposed module library when I check in Xposed Installer (I use the one by DVDAndroid). I had to go to the repo online to download and install manually.

I see it just fine in the official Xposed Installer.
@GrindrGuyNYC I'm on oreo 8.1 with systemless xposed.
The module won't show in notification bar even if I choose show always.
Another bug (on nougat too, with "standard" xposed) is if I swipe or open a new profile module ask me to undo last refresh.
