Database Develop

Bloo Facebook App

I just came across this wonderful app that provides a native facebook client for android.
Tha app has been out for just 2 days and already is receiving great support from its developer with constant updates as new features are implemented and bugs are ironed out.
Although its a paid app the developer has been kind enough to provide an alternative method of purchasing the app to those that don't have access to google's paid market through slideme.org.
The app costs $1.49 and I can say its well worth every penny. I have been using it since morning with no problems what so ever.
The developer its quite active and promises new features with future releases. For more details refer to his blog: http://fbandroid.wordpress.com/
I believe we should support such developers that put a lot of effort in providing android with such great apps.

Can't make comments in Chinese It sends them in garbage code. Refunded.
EDIT: It reads them fine, just can't REPLY.

i cant see it in the market yet.....can anyone provide a down load link for bloo?

I love how the OP wrote as if he wasn't the author of the app... which he is. At least be honest and say you're plugging your own app!
It looks good, and I'm definitely going to pick it up soon, so there's no need to be sneaky.

I purchased it yesterday, and I think its great. But is it only me, or does it load The Feed slow, even on wireless?

can someone pls give me a link from when i can get this bloo?
its not there in the market,im in india...

Tat Home

does anyone know whatever happened with this home replacement? Tried to get in the beta never received an email

Not really sure, and I find it ironic that the TAT homepage says there's an update about TAT Home FAQ, but the link takes you to a dead page, and the TAT Home homepage is dead as well... Perhaps the FAQ update was telling people that's it's a failed project? Haha. Not sure, I was really hoping for an actual release though.
EDIT: Ok, nevermind, the page isn't down... it's just stuck in an infinite redirect loop and throws the browser an error. Ironic that a great set of developers and programmers managed to goof up and keep redirecting to the same page over and over...haha. Their Home Page says it's available for OEMs and Developers though *shrugs*

IRC I believe a few people here recieved it to Beta test.
However they were not allowed to disclose it, shame I signed up for the test aswell.

i remember hearing about tat home. i hope it hasn't become vaporware
dnf!

TAT Home has only been available to vendors. It's not going to show up anytime soon as download in the market. It is stated that way on their website and has been said before. If anyone is really wishing for it to come out soon, they may end up being disappointed unless there is a big surprise from the makers. The beta has been going on for a bit, but there is nothing to go on to actually acquiring it yet.

IMO I think TAT may be short-changing themselves by not offering this in the market....even if they brought out a "lite" version it would at least it would get a following which may in-turn be the deciding factor for some people choosing buy their products in the future. But now most of us were just sold(not in a literal sense though) a dream.

Please do not post Swype APK's

As Swype is only available as a closed beta or as release within an OEM build, it should not be posted, or linked on XDA.
I'm the beta community relations rep for Swype (Brian Resnik, if you're over on the Swype forums).
First of all, yes we're watching you HAHA. I'm obligated to wag my finger at you all for distributing our software without a license. A little patience will go a long way. Trust me, the more the brass hears about people illegally copying Swype and feeling entitled to a free version (yes, we know there's no copy on the market for you to buy, but you have to respect that OEM distribution is our chosen business model), the less they want to support a beta program at all. The better we play nice with eachother, the sooner more people get into the beta!

yup, it was posted there first

@mssmison
But you know... I will buy Swype first day it will be released - thanks to these leaks

Swype has updated their page with the new beta instructions. It appears at this point to be a limited public beta, as it will only be available for a couple of days, and requires you to enter your email address to get the download.
So threads with download links will still not be allowed.

You do realize that the whole point of this thread is to say not to post the APK, right?

When they take off the stupid download limit for the Beta for registered testers, I'll actually support not posting links.

I've downloaded mine many times (4 or 5) due to flashing the phone over and over testing things

Yeah, I understand. I just wanted to know whether I should not download it too many times, but backup&install it instead.

Gents,
I think Ive abused my swype membership --- ive installed it maybe at least 30 times on two phones since March. I've lost the "swype" function and it is basically a nice blue HTC_IME standin. No complaints, but wheres the swype at on Swype?

Droid X comes with it stock. Beautiful app. I might have known someone (a friend of course) who hooked his friends up with Swype on their HTC Eris's. He told me that he went and Googled it and found it pretty quick.

I understand that you have chosen a particular business model. I think however that it is unfair that it is not sold via the Android Market. What about phones like the Nexus One which now is an official developers phone? The Nexus One did not come with Swype and I would like to have the option to use it. (And yes, I did sign up at swypeinc's website waiting for the beta to reopen) Unless you give people the chance to purchase your product people will find ways around your chosen business model. I haven't myself downloaded the apk and I agree xdadevelopers should heed your warning.

I'm not really sure what the hang up is for the swype "brass." This program is being released on select phones already, right? Plus I've never heard complaints about it and would love to try it too. I'd gladly pay for something like this (after a trial) so I'm not really sure what the deal is.
Most of us love new software to play with and improve our phones with. However, a big turn-off for us can also be controlling companies like this. If they don't start providing us a valid route to buy or at least use this product, then they're going to lose in the end. The community is large enough we can throw together our own program to do this crap. Hell, shapewriter keyboard already does this and is free to boot and since I can't even use swype, it might as well not exist in the realm of gesture-based keyboards as far as I'm personally concerned.

I must concur with the rest of the community when I say that choosing not to retail a highly requested, fully functional app shows that the Swype folks are off their rockers. However, if they don't want us to obtain their app and lose customers as a result, that is their prerogative. I'm sure most of us will just find the APKs elsewhere online.

[Q] Bitbop beta?

well i've been searching around n found no answer. is there any way to get involved in this beta? or is it like a closed press only type of beta? i have seen many videos on it n i just wanna get my hands on it! of course since its probably against the rules to post the direct apk, anyone know how to get in on this or is it strictly closed? also....if you have the actual beta, no harm in DMing me the apk

bitbop beta
Hi, letting you know that the beta is associated with specific accounts so even if you have the apk file you will not be able to use the app without a valid Bitbop account. Please follow us on twitter twitter.com/bitbop and contact me at beta at bitbop dot com and we can get you set up. Thanks Paula

Paula,
I signed up for the BitBop service now that it is released but saw that there is no tablet support. I have sent customer service an email about it but have not heard back. I was able to load the app for my phone (Droid X) but would really prefer to use the app on my tablet (Viewsonic G Tablet - running VEGAn 1.0 beta 5.1 - froyo) since it has a much bigger screen. I see this is an old thread but was hoping you would still get this post.

Hi sjmoreno, I am sorry, at this time we do not support your Viewsonic G Tablet. Let me know if I can help you with anything else, thanks Paula

Thanks Paula for the response. Can you tell me if your company is planning on supporting tablets in the future and if so what type of timeline and devices?

We are a new application company, and this is one of the first two applications we have released. Currently it's a bare-bones Read it later client. I have a bunch of updates in the works, and a pro version with even more functionality. Right now I'm just trying to gauge interest in the platform. If you have any comments don't hesitate to let me know!
Thank You,

I'm new so I can't post links, just replace the xttp with a http, or copy the link after!

Nice name!
Just wondering how it will work? Is it a RSS app or Google Reader app?
Whatever it is, it's definitely nice. Thanks.

Just found this app the other day and was glad I did since I miss using read it later on my hd2 and also had chrome to phone. The app works fine, but wish you could delete the links after using them. But, I'm just glad to have it

Updates
Thanks for the support!
I definitely have some updates planned. I want to add list manipulation, as well as text views and page saving. Look in the coming weeks for some updates.

Thanks for sharing!
