RFD Mobile

[thannatos]

Hello,

I'm trying to access http://m.redflagdeals.com on my Blackberry Pearl. While I'm able to see the thread list, most of the links into the thread are not being picked up as a clickable link (only a few threads are clickable -- the other navigation links are working i.e. next page).

Is the Blackberry Pearl supported? If so, what are the correct settings to make it display properly?

Is this the right forum to post technical issues?

If I recall correctly, there are some issues with the browser on the Pearl.

Hey, while we're talkin' 'bout RFD Mobile, whoever put that "last" button at the bottom of the thread is a friggin' genius.

Best to post in the Mod's thread:

I think there needs to be a "last" and a "next" button at the top of threads on RFD mobile as well. For some reason, on my LG shine, it loads a huge section of empty white space on each page I load in a thread. So I can't simply scroll up and jump to the end of that page so that I can go to the next page, or last page. I have to scroll through all 15 posts in order to get to the next page button, which isn't normally a big deal, but if there's long posts or pictures, it becomes a tedious process that takes much longer than necessary

I hate having to "swipe scroll" a few dozen times to get to the bottom of the first page of a thread so I can get to that "Last" button. A "Last" button at the top would be a godsend. :)

^ +1 for the last button at the top too

I hate the multi-touch and swipe to hit the last page of a thread. Most of the time, the RFD mobile app does not correctly detect the multi-touch and it only goes to the next page. Please put in "first page/previous page/next page/last page" button. For an example of one that works well, see the HowardForums mobile app.

I am using the RFD Mobile app for Android.

i hate having to make a new thread on something minor, so I'll add it here.

I'm using the RFD mobile app on the iphone and the 'message centre' does not seem to work? Anyone else have the same problem?

Where did you get the RFD Mobile Android app?

Where did you get the RFD Mobile Android app?

It's been awhile, but I probably got it from Android Market or AppBrain. Here's the link on appbrain, but it says it's been removed.

http://www.appbrain.com/app/redflagdeals/com.namstudio.android.web.rfd

Doesn't really surprise me though. Since this thread has been pretty much been ignored, I don't think any development has been done on the app anyway. You can't login, post or navigate to the last page of a thread very easily on the RFD mobile app. I've abandoned it for the mobile-version of the website.

That wasn't actually an RFD official app. It was a developer who took our content through the RSS feeds, put it in an app, used our trademark and content, and displayed ads against it. We finally got it taken down.

For now there's no Android app, but we just got an updated iPhone out the door in mid-November so there was certainly no time this year with the redesign as well. You can use the mobile website and if you go to http://f.redflagdeals.com, that's the mobile forums that is webkit enhanced for those who have browsers that can support it.

Another related question. On the mobile/touch site, how do I subscribe to thread?

Ahh! That sucks. I don't want to reply just to subscribe. Thanks.
