XDA App on NC - Nook Color General

Wondering if any of you are experiencing this. I set the three NC forums (general, development, themes) as my favorites in my XDA app on my NC. Seems like most of the time I go into my favorites from the XDA app, it says "Connecting to server" and then just spins and spins and never gets anywhere. The only way I can get it to actually refresh is to back out of it and then hit refresh.
Any way to stop this? It's just annoying.

I'm always having to log in every time I open the app. Anyone know why?

I also find the XDA app to be a bit quirky. At times it makes me log in and other times it doesn't. When it doesn't is when I tend to have the same problems you've mentioned. The only way I get around it is to hit the back arrow, then menu-refresh. No solutions - but glad it's not just me having issues.

Crashes for me every time I do a search. Aria with FR008 final

the login issue is so annoying. If you back out of the app completely you have to login and it throws up the admin doesnt allow this error. What i do is hit my nook button to get out of the app so the login stays active.
All the other issues described i was unable to recreate sorry :/

Same here.
In fact, the login issue happens on all devices when using the back button...

Yea, I'm glad you mentioned that. I checked with my husband last night and the app behaves the same way on his Samsung Galaxy.

Run/Bike app?

I've tried just about every reasonably rated run/bike app on my Aria (Endomondo and RunKeeper seem to be the best) and always have the same problem.
I start them before a run/ride, but shortly after I begin, my screen turns off and the app seems to close. It actually is still running (when I press and hold the Home button, the app appears), but when I reopen it, my current run/ride has terminated.
Has anyone else had this problem? Is there a way to keep the app going when my screen turns off?
Thanks in advance.
i use runkeeper and dont ever have that problem, the screen normally stays on the entire time unless i manually lock it or change screens
i dont even know how to change the settings to make it do anything different
I also use runkeeper without any problems (running Liberated Beta 5). I start the application/activity, lock the screen, and it runs without fail either in the background or as the primary running application.
Are you using some kind of automated task killer or battery saving application? That is the only thing I can think of that would explain the closing of the app when your screen shuts off.
your old thread is still here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=742912&highlight=endomondo
did you try the app fix i mentioned?

I never saw your trackboost suggestion. I did a search on the Market and it couldn't find it. Can you send me a link to it?

I don't use a lockscreen. I just turn off the screen with the power button.
Not aware of using any task killer or battery saving app. In my task manager, it is still running.

stock browser and XDA forums

Hi,
When browsing these forums from the stock browser I noticed the following issue:
- unable to log in. You can enter the username and password, but pressing the login in button has no effect
- Page button sometimes work and sometimes does not.
Has anyone else experienced similar issues?
Download the xda app from the marketplace. Much better xda experience

I actually have an issue that whenever I use the XDA app it forces me to re-login. Have the same app on my Droid X and don't have this problem. Is there a setting somewhere I'm missing ? I didn't see anything obvious.
I have same issue with Tapatalk Pro...have to enter a password each login. Erased data with Titanium Backup to no avail. Wish that worked.
Same here. Asks for password every time on NC. On my EVO it works properly.

well, I'm having these issues, too. Who are the 'powers-that-be' that could be notified to see if we could get it resolved?

[Q] Engadget / Yahoo Mail problem in CM7 final

Just flashed CM7 final without any issues.
But Yahoo Mail only loads 10 newest emails. Engadget app won't launch. Anybody had similar problems?
I concur on the Engadget app...not sure about Yahoo since I don't use it. It's a bummer, the Engadget app is one of my most used on my phone.
I don't use yahoo, but the Engadget app works fine for me... it used to show up too small but there is a fix in Spare Parts - uncheck compatibility mode. This fixed it to show up properly. Maybe try that? What error are you getting, just a FC?
I tried to disable the compatibility mode, rebooted, still Engadget came up with a white screen.

So far I like the Android mail app better than Yahoo's for Yahoo mail. It is working fine for me with CM7 release
I have the same issue with Engadget app. Blank page after uncheck compatibility mode and reboot.
Feel lucky that you can get Yahoo Mail to work at all on this device. Every time I try to set it up, it tells me that the password is incorrect, even though it isn't. I've tried this on 2.1-2.3.
Somewhat off topic, but I find it ironic that I can't sign into the XDA app and view a thread I've participated in without a FC.

While I'm not on CM7, yahoo mail will no longer download e-mails for me on my autonooted NC. Worked just after I installed it and then, no new e-mails (accoridng ot the app) since April 10. Of course, my inbox online would beg to differ.
The Engadget app just takes a real longtime to load the EULA on CM7. Leave it at the white screen for 10-30 secs, then click Accept, and then you'll be rockin'.

Ah, so I'm not the only one having this problem...
Picked up a new Incredible S over the weekend (my old Desire died on me ...). I just starting having this same problem yesterday and initially thought my Swype installation screwed something up. Odd that it only seems to affects the Google home page. For instance, if you're on the news.google.com page and type in the search box, all is fine...
I also tried using Dolphin browser but had the same problem.
Problem with Cirian75's solution is then you lose the benefit of viewing mobile formatted pages...
I think google has done something recently to its search page and its not the phones.
Same thing, and appeared only today and only on mobile Google search page. Browser thinks that's a password form and fills the input text with points. There's also no option to type in other than english.
Sent from my HTC Incredible S using XDA App
so we agree, we think google has messed up the code on the mobile search page
Nothings wrong with the phones suddenly, its google mobile search page thats gone tits up.
Same problem, and it only started happening yesterday, Google must have done something

long press in a text box, select 'input method" and switch back to the original keyboard, then select input method again and switch back to swype.
Yup. All's working fine now. Weird...

XDA app issue on wifi

I have no idea where to ask this, so I'm just gonna throw it here.
I have a very strange issue with the xda app that started happening a couple of days ago. Whenever I'm connected to my home wifi, the xda app logs me out, and I can't login because it gives me the "wrong username/password" error, and also the news feed doesn't seem to load. As soon as I switch to mobile data it allows me to login (with the same saved user/pass combo), and everything works perfectly fine.
I have absolutely no other issues with any other app while on my wifi, and also the xda forum is accessible via browser, just the app that gives me this issue. Any thoughts on this?

Yes, I have tried that earlier, however this morning the regular app suddenly works fine, so we'll see if it stays like that. Could it be that a certain ip range got banned or something like that?
