Hi everyone,
Here's the latest update on Usbong.
Here's the latest update on Usbong.
Just this morning, I received news that a number of people
are having trouble registering and signing into Usbong.
The mobile app was throwing an error, saying:
"android.os. NetworkOnMainThreadException"
This error basically means that the app
is doing a network operation, such as HTTP requests,
in its main UI thread, which earlier Android versions allowed,
but Ice Cream Sandwich (ICS) and Honeycomb do not.
This was brought about by the fact that we specifically included
SDK version 18 (Android 4.3) as the target SDK version,
while maintaining that the app runs on
at least SDK version 8 (Android 2.2).
To cut a long story short, the error has now been fixed.
We simply created a new thread whenever we perform HTTP requests.

Special thanks to stackoverflow
for helping us arrive at a solution.
For those who downloaded Usbong via Google Play,
the updated .apk, you should be available
within a few hours after receiving this email.
Take note that the version should: Jan. 9, 2014.
As for the source code, please check Google Code.
