I tried it...the interface looks really good..i know agile messenger on iphone is pretty good....i think with more updates it will be one of the top messenging apps on the G1...
but right now its too new and it foreclosed on me a few times and wouldnt connect on 3g...but it definitely has potential i cant wait for udates!
I can tell you that it is the best when it ocmes to PPC but for G1 is going well, waiting for updates.

Which is the best Twitter App for Android ?
Cuz i've been using Twidroid but it replys like From Twidroid, not in a reply to someone .
So which one is the best ? i want one that replys the tweet from a user .
twidroid ( the best we got as of now...)
i like twidget the best
IMO iTweet is the best then twidroid after that.
I get all my updates and has all the features you need in a tweeter app.
but if you dont want to buy one I would go with twidroid.

iTweet
Hands down the best, at the moment.
I wish we had a reliable widget. I've tried Twidget numberous times, but it failed to update properly. Maybe they've got it fixed by now. If so, Twidget was showing lots of promise.
Twit2Go FTW
I discovered Twit2Go when I was looking for a Twitter app, and really really like it. It's very lightweight (compared to things like Twitteride and Twidroid), and a nice Android UI (unlike ITweet, for example), and has all the usual goodies (TinyURL support, reply/DM notifications, etc.).
Strongly recommend giving it a try.
HTC Peep Lol or Itweet if you want to pay. Twidroid = best free twitter app no doubt.
I like Twitterride because it's the only one I could find that would distinguish new tweets from old.
I prefer Twidroid myself.
itweet is the best one
i tried iTweet and i like it im gonna keep using the 3 for a few days and decide, thx guys cuz i didnt know this iTweet app .
Twidroid is nice, but sometimes it shows tweets from months ago. No idea why.
ITweet FTW!!!
should have made this a poll....
If i could get peep i would on a non Hero, however i use TwitterRide , use to use Twidroid however never would update on its own i woudl have to click refresh. TwitterRide is getting like this now, wish i could find one that would update every 5-10 mins on its own. . . . . . .
Twidroid.
Best twitter client hands down.
I gotta give my vote to Twidroid. Amazing app. I used Twidget for a while, because it's one of the few that actually constantly update (it runs in the background, like Twidroid has the option to) and is nice and lite. Twidroid then picks up everything else as a fully-functional Twitter client. I like it better than the Twitter homepage itself!

That's basically how I see them too.. Twidget is an awesome lightweight client for keeping up. I also do most updates from it. I have Twidroid installed but not configured for background checking so I can use it when needed for photo posting, DMs, etc. Both excellent apps, just different strengths.

Haha sweet, great minds think alike :].
twidroid is about to release an widget for their app also =D
can't wait!
Didn't see a topic on this, did a search so apologies if there is one...
"Bump" that application that the iPhone adverts seem to feature heavily is now on Android. It basically just shares your contact info with another phone by "bumping them together":
http://www.downloadsquad.com/2009/1...ick-contact-sharing-app-not-iphone-only-anym/
Downloaded it today and it's pretty good, free aswell.
Seems ok. My only quarrel is it uses some internet service to store/transfer your contact info(is this how the Iphone does it as well?). I'd prefer it turn on and use bluetooth instead. idk just my 2c
Anyone know if we can or if sometime in the future we'll be able to bump android to iphone?

I'm pretty sure the current android app works with the iPhone app but the new iPhone app has some new features we don't have as of yet.

That program looks disturbing and sleazy.
1) by proximity I presume? then how do you know it isn't being set off automatically? I.e. on a subway when the train lurches and someone happens to be standing next to you...
2) goes through your whole contact list and compares them using a 3rd party service? Ouch -- SERIOUS security failure here.
can't find it in market. lots of stuff has disappeared? Camera Zoom FX, Snap Photo Pro, Mobile Defense. What the heck! Where did they go?
Hello All
I have just stumbled across an app called Vodafone Application Update (on the Market), although this does not appear to be an official Vodafone app (at least not a UK one anyway).
The app itself sits in the Taskbar and monitors your social networks pulling into a combined inbox similar to the Motoblur with the exception of the inbox.
I have found it pretty useful and wondered if anyone had heard of it before.
I cannot vouch for its authenticity or as to whether it works on other networks (as I'm on Vodafone anyhow)
As its a free software not a paid for app if someone can tell me how to extract an apk from my phone I'll post a link for those that cannot see it on the Market.
Thanks to XDA for making my whole Android experience better
Just trying it on T-Mobile UK, seems to be working so far, will update in a moment. Nice find
EDIT: Sure seems to work for facebook atleast, I don't use any of the other services. Awesome .

Good news if it had a widget it would be awesome
also working perfect on US Tmobile G1. Thanks.. never would have known about it.
Pure messenger widget, just a few posts down from this one seems to be a good widget interpretation of what you're looking for.

apps dont slow down phones...they eat up memory and wear down batteries.
Use task managers and kill widgets to control these memory leeching, battery eating apps, and your phone will speed up.
well im looking for the app that has "im yahoo n msn messenger" i saw it in one of my friend rom but cant find it... where can i download it.. i remember android had it but cant find it...
I'd like it as well
i think the name of the app was "androind client... forgot the rest...
Android 1.5 had that built in. 2.1 doesnt. I'd use Meebo. Thats the only halfway decent IM client out there for Android.

Have you tried eBuddy
Not sure about IM but I wanna see a facebook chat application, better yet a decent facebook app.

eBuddy does Facebook chat along with all the others all in one. Might check it out.
the app is Android IM... it is in Enomther's latest ROM. its ok, but use meebo, its much better and has more functionality.. i wish digbsy would make an android client... that would by far be the best.
attached!!! have fun!!
One week for today I'll be getting my gTab and I am new to Android in general. Are there any IM clients that play well with the gTab?
Scott
Honestly... I have yet to find an IM app that doesn't play well. I should also state: that is if you're looking to chat only. Getting into video is a whole other can of worms.

Just straight up IM, no need for video at the moment. New to android so I don't know the popular IM apps at the moment, should probably just search the market and see what is well rated.
Scott
For chat they all seem to work well.
I like imo.im the most.
It just looks better to me,
Its one of the newer im apps.

Personally i use ebuddy which incorporates all my gmail accounts yahoo accounts facebook chat accounts and etc.
I forgot about ebuddy. I tried it before when I was running stock with enhancement pack and it wouldn't work for me. Now im on tnt lite 4.2 and haven't tried it again.
I went with Trillian; I'd been using the PC version for ages, and love the elegance of what they have on Android. YMMV.
I just use google voice. Click on your contact's cell phone number (the smiley face to the right) and text away. You have to set up google voice once and you are good to go. Do a search on this forum for the thread on this topic

seconded.
i've tried ebuddy, im+ and a few others and Trillian seems to offer the cleanest UI in my opinion.
