Look at the BT_screen_rssReader.java file

Running Android app on BT 1.5. Do RSS feeds not work? I get the above error on the app when selecting an RSS "button". Suggestions? What am I doing wrong?

RSS feeds for Android are not supported in v1.5 yet. So, that's the reason you get that error! Mark

If by RSS "button" you mean the BTv1.5 RSS screen, no it doesn't work in Android. Fred http://dl.dropbox.com/u/42553454/MySkylla's%20Guide/Articles/Buzztouch_Screens.html#BTv1.5Android

If you ever want to know for sure if something is supported or not on v1.5, search the code for a line like this: showAlert("Open Eclipse", "Look at the BT_screen_rssReader.java file"); If the "Open Eclipse" message is there, than the implementation of that feature is not yet complete. Mark

@fred I tried your solution. And although it works for the most part...if the user selects an image in the feed the app gets stuck with a "loading circle" and you have to find a away force close the app. Goodness...Ive got to find a away to get a simple gallery that feeds from Flickr...

It does bring up the question why are you using BTv1.5 (Android)? BTv2.0 has much more and a Gallery to boot. Fred

Only thing BTv2.0 (Android) lackes compared to BTv1.5 is header images & menu (list) icons. Gallery plugin is not available on Buzztouch.com It's available from BuzztouchMods.com In my Buzztouch Screens article I tell you how to add the plugin to your non-self-hosted app. Fred

@Fred I see you trying to help a lot in the forums...and cant thank you enough. However you mention all the time to go to your site for guides. Maybe its me but I find it very confusing to use your site. Mind showing me a link to such guide to install plugin on non self hosted 2.0 plugins?
