Hey guys, I have the CDMA Hero, I was wondering if there was any good im apps that can even do facebook chat? I was using meebo, which is a very good im client, but it keeps the phone awake. Is there one that is just as good that wont keep the phone awake?
Thanks in advanced.
you might wanna try nimbuzz. not using it myself. it keeps disconnecting me.
ebuddy is pretty good

I think all of them keep your phone some how awake. Specially when you connect to many networks at the same time.
I use IM,MSN,GT, and FB.
I found eBuddy to be pretty good. Just a note of caution though particularly in the UK, if you use AIM over your mobile network, you'll probably be in breach of contract. You need to check the small print even on unlimited tariffs.

Hello IM. Never fails me, runs great
I installed eBuddy last night, and put my phone on to charge until about 9am. I had eBuddy connected to MSN, GT and FB chats but didn't interact with it all day and by 6pm my battery light was flashing red.....
hmm, so each aim app stays on all the time, not allowing the phone to sleep.. I wish that wasn't so

I use the **** out of mine. Need about to charge up to like 85ish % again mid day.
Oh yeah, I use my phone an insane amount per day. I don't use a computer so its my main internet device.
I use it 'alot'.
I use mine a ton, my wife shes lucky she knows how to turn hers on.
I use mine all the time. I use it for work and play. Performs excellent for both!!

This post. It is the best one.
The application had FC problem, but today I received an update. Lo and behold, the FC is gone now, and it should be possible to make video chatting.
Give it a try.

installed this but haven't made any calls yet...However, this morning I woke up and my phone was dead (went to sleep with 70%) did a logcat this and the tmo qik app was waaaaaay to overactive (keep in mind I haven't used it and it has constant activity???)... battery killer, needs more work...uninstalled

Interesting, it has literally used no battery on my phone ( doesn't even show up in the list). I wonder what is causing it to use so much battery.

Finally. Now I can video chat with my brother and sister-in-law and their MT4Gs.
In terms of battery life, my phone hasn't been showing any change in battery life. It's always running in the background, but it hardly takes up anything. All I did was disable the auto sync. What's the point in syncing your contacts every few days? They're hardly gonna change. Only so many people get phones with ffc, much less install qik. If one of your contacts happens to get qik, or remove it, but didn't tell you, it was probably for a reason
I hope this is a precursor to T-mobile offering it's wifi calling app to all android phones.

You guys seen their new website? Much, much better! I actually like how it looks now. Check it out.
For those who don't know, not that there's many who don't, it's a site where you can get ringtones/wallpapers/etc. for your phone 100% free, no catch, no bs.
www.zedge.com
Can you tell me what is the point of visiting their website? If I want to download a wallpaper or ringtone, I'll just use their app, why care about what their website looks like?
Because there might be people that rather have a bookmarked site over an app
What do you mean? I still don't see the point of bookmarking or visiting their site.

is easier if you install their App from Market
then you can pick sounds / wallpapers directly from it, and sets it into the system settings
Yeah for sure the app is a really handy one. Use it all the time when i get bored, and there are no new roms to try out.

Completely agree, thanks for the post. I would much rather use my laptop to find what I want to download before I spend 2 hours searching the mobile app for it. Not all of us have blazing fast 4g!
I had a look at their website, you guys are right. It is much easier to browse through the website, however one thing I find strange, how come on their website they don't separate ringtone from notification sound?

Exactly! In the time it takes to view 1 page of wallpapers on the app you can view 4 on the website.

I'd imagine because on most phones it doesnt matter. I remember back when I had my Moto E816 I could only use certain file types for a ringtone/notification/alarm/etc., now you can use pretty much whatever you want.

They should add a remote install feature to the website, obviously requiring you to have the Zedge app installed on your phone. That would make it really worthwhile using the site over the app.
I do agree that the site is better for browsing, but the app sets things for you. We want the best of both worlds.

You mean something like the Market where you pick something you want to d/l and instead of downloading on your pc it automatically d/l's to your phone? That would be sweet!

Yes mate - exactly that and yes, it would be awesome. Google would be doing a great thing if they included something like authenticated remote installation in the Android framework. That would get used so much!

Hopefully this is fixed with the new 2.7 update of the app.
Thanks for many kind words regarding the webpage! We are however not finished with the revamp
Somehow the notification thingy (red dot with number of unread emails) is not showing anymore. This is for the built-in email client that came with the Gnote.
I have a feeling its because I have ADW EX as my launcher now. Just want some confirmation, and is there a way to get it back?
Thanks.
If you're using ADW, then you'll need ADWNotifier.
Thanks, but doesn't work with the Samsung email client.

It has killed my phone before. It obviously came up and was there for hours, and the screen just drained the battery. I also assume it prevented the phone sleeping. This was with the Xperia Arc.
There are settings that can prevent this, but then I found the situation fairly useless as the notification was not there when I wanted it. I could not find a method that suited me.
I have no bought (waiting delivery) one of those wristbands that vibrate when you get a notification, call, or leave your phone behind . I think that will work better for me. Still waiting for an Android watch that does not look like a brick on your wrist.

The wristband thingy sounds interesting. Which one did you get? Mind posting the link? Thanks.

GBP 19.99 on play.com in the UK if you want it - I think it it too bulky - new version is better on pictures at least looks like proper watch - I use mbw-200 instead

I'm waiting for the pebble personally (getpebble.com). Eliminates the problem of having to press a button to see the time.
Thanks!
This is a sweet deal. Thanks for the heads-up! I got one yesterday

Yeah but with that watch you can't read text messages, missed calls and stuff like that.
With the Liveview you can and it's a steal at that price.
The MBW-200 is still too expensive !
this may not have something to do with the deal, but since it's about liveview...
guys, i just updated mine to the latest firmware available via Sony Update Service, but I still have disconnection problems. is that suppose to happen? any solutions?
i saw a number of posts about fixing the issue by using an app called MinFree, but aren't those tutorials intended for the old software of LiveView?
and lastly, since the issue is about android killing the liveview app, will converting it to system app solve the problem?

I updated mine a while back and it was better but not perfect. I use Go Launcher and have it set to not kill this app. THis app is a godsend... I have next to zero disconnects.

ITs $1.99 but in my opinion totally worth it.....
jeez.. i think i wasted money here.. i was hopeful all the bugs were sorted out already since almost all threads about its bugs that i read were almost 2 years old.. and that the latest update came 2011..i feel ripped off.....

There was another app that was not on the market that was free it also worked well. I dont have my phone with me right now but when I find the app I will let you know. Did the above app not work?
Thanks for the time helping out an "accessory noob" guy jgregory! Nope I didn't try that app yet. Apparently my unit is kinda working good now after the firmware update. It has been connected already for an hour without disconnection, only some type of freezing on the device that forces me to turn off and on again the devicE. But it's really rare now. I'm gonma do an overnight conmection test, see if it disconnects while I'm asleep.
These accessories are actually on sale in our country. Yesterday I bought MW600 despite negative reviews, but I'm actually impressed with the headset. It has good battery life. 4 hours into music and the battery indicator is still at full. I just hope it doesn't go into some sort of cardiac arrest like most reviews talk about.
I'm happy that the LiveView can control the music on my phone using PowerAmp whilst using the MW600 simultaneously.
These accessories are so cool!

Yeah once i got the disconnection problem resolved this things sweet. I use it mostly for music streaming to my headset..... hey I was going to PM you but theres no option for it on your profile....
Oh jeez I don't know why. Must be because some disrespectful kid was bugging me and dropping crap on me via PM and I reported him and the mods interfered. Maybe you could try again.
Anyway, what messaging app are you using? I'm using GOSMS but apparently LiveView doesn't support it
I don't use the stock messaging app because it looks worse than a command prompt window. Haha. Any workaround you know of?
