I watched the traffic for Press talking to a real Fever server and the emulated API through tiny tiny RSS. My handwriting is a hard to read; here's what I found:

The real API is on the left, the emulated on the right. The conversation goes normally until we get to ?api&items&since_id=####. At this step, the real API returns a JSON response with items containing lots of items. The emulated API returns an empty array.

The #### that is used is the smallest item from the previous step (?api&unread_items).

Next questions:

• Is ?api&unread_items returning the correct set of items?
• Is press using the right since_id?
• Should ?api&items&since_id=#### have the items field populated?

I think it's a problem with Press. This is a sample call for unread items:

parameter: {"api":"","unread_item_ids":"","api_key":"<api_key>"}
answer   : {"api_version":3,"auth":1,"last_refreshed_on_time":"1376697185","unread_item_ids":"23517,23520,23521,23522,23461,23415,23362,23243,22298,22296,22297,22525,22512,22465,22295,23103,23000,22584,22299,23527,23528,23529,23530,23531,23532,23533,23534,23535,23536"}

parameter: {"api":"","items":"","since_id":"2295","api_key":"<api_key>"}
answer   : {"api_version":3,"auth":1,"last_refreshed_on_time":"1376697185","total_items":"15496","items":[]}

parameter: {"api":"","items":"","since_id":"2345","api_key":"<api_key>"}
answer   : {"api_version":3,"auth":1,"last_refreshed_on_time":"1376697185","total_items":"15496","items":[]}

parameter: {"api":"","items":"","since_id":"2395","api_key":"<api_key>"}
answer   : {"api_version":3,"auth":1,"last_refreshed_on_time":"1376697185","total_items":"15496","items":[]}

Press thinks the lower id is '2295' (instead of 22295?). Maybe it can't understand id's with more than 4 digits.

After that it asks for the next '50' elements, 2345, 2395, etc...

Switching from

$where .= "id > " . db_escape_string($since_id*1000) . " "; // NASTY hack for Mr. Reader 2.0 on iOS and TinyTiny 

to

$where .= "id > " . db_escape_string($since_id) . " ";

Solves the issue but may break Mr. Reader...

What about sniffing out the user agent? My user agent, from press: Dalvik/1.6.0 (Linux; U; Android 4.3; Nexus 4 Build/JWR66V) It'll vary slightly for different people. Maybe an option for the user to paste in theirs in the admin interface? It would be way easier if press would send a user agent for the app. Maybe something like Press-App/APP_VERSION and it looks not that hard to set a user agent for Android apps

Ah, no better!

Mr. Reader is the one that needs the ugly hack so it makes sense to sniff out its user agent. AAAAND it has a nice user agent string: Mr. Reader 2.0.2 rv:1209.
