XDA Forum login issues.

This should fix the problem for anyone that was being driven mad by this when using Chrome.

Edit your XDA bookmark and add this at the end /login.php?do=login

For example, I bookmark the Galaxy s2 forum like this - http://xdaforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1055/login.php?do=login and now I can log in every time without it keep forgetting my username and password all the time.

I'm not sure I understand what you mean. Bookmarks are easy to edit to add the bit on the end

Not exactly a login issue. Had problems accessing xda. I am currently in china, so this may have to do with the Great Firewall of china. Maybe it was blocked for a couple of days...along with the usual youtube, facebook blocks etc. Anyone from china had this problem?

looks like this dreaded log out issue has returned a few days ago. i'm getting logged out daily again. sometimes more than once a day. not as bad as before, with hourly log outs, but still kind of strange why it has started happening again.
i had gone maybe 1-2 months of being logged in 24/7 before this started happening again.

i see. problem is, i don't think i use a bookmark for xda. i go to the xda forum via the thumbnail page. for example http://cdn-static.zdnet.com/i/story/60/80/012568/mozilla-firefox-tabs-zaw2.png which is basically a list of most viewed pages or something.

so, i'm not sure how to edit that, b/c i dont think it is technically a bookmark

This just started happeneing to me. It began after setting my theme preference to 2010 in the User CP. Previously i would just rely on the site cookies, which i exclude from cleaning, to remember the theme preference. I've got some testing to do to see if i can reverse the changes and fix the issue.

Hi,

I have been having log in problems for the last few weeks.
Tried changing password process (and plagued the "contact us" button as even the newly delivered password failed to work! and not that I got any response from them either...!). I was going off my head!

But then I tried loging in using IE (Firefox is my usual browser) and got straigt in! SO I thought it must be one of the add-on in firefox. Naa.. never that simple!

Then I came across this topic and I tried the two new 2013 themes. No difference. IE logged in using the XDA 2010 theme so tried that and the 2010 themes and they both worked in both firefox and waterfox.

My conclussion is that there is an additional character being presented in the password field because of an error in those themes (both the 2013 themes).

Just so people know, if you click the "remember me" box when logging in, this will pop a cookie on the browser and will allow your session to carry over (so long as you do not click log off) from browser restarts etc. and should keep you logged in..

Hope this helps someone...

Des. . .

i've been having a similar issue since weeks now; The Site works fine on the Pc, but if i use Chrome on my Note 3 or iPad, forumdisplay keeps refreshing after few seconds of loading, tho i am still logged in, to stop it from reloading, i press the Cancel (x) button immediately when it starts to refresh....one thing i noticed is that ?nocache=1&z=123124354346565 line is added after the URL on first refresh, the number after z is random

Is there a way to disable the charging LED without buying the updater app?

Login issues...

Okay guys,

Since today morning, I am constantly presented with the attached screen every time I want to check XDA. This is the captcha nonsense that is refusing to go. Any solutions?

iamsuperuser · Apr 14, 2019

When ever I have to login I have to change the XDA theme to 2015 at the bottom left corner of the page. But I like the 2010 theme from which I cannot login. Can't this be rectified by moderators?? Why do I have to change the theme everytime I login?? My user ID is ' iamsuperuser ' . Can someone help?

The option your changing is saved as a cookie in that specific browser but, the way to keep it as a specific user setting is as follows.

Be sure your logged in first and go to the following link...

https://xdaforums.com/profile.php?do=editoptions

... Then scroll down to the last area under "Forum Skin" and select the default forum skin theme you want from the drop down menu. Then Select the "Save Changes" button at the very bottom.

You should be good to go from there...

Good Luck!
