T-Mobile video chat application finally supports NS! - Nexus S Themes and Apps

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.

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
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.

Looks very beta. I get alerts when it isn't my turn, there is no way to turn down game volume, and there's a freaking ad after every turn. I'll wait until there's a paid version and the bugs are worked out.
There was no game volume control in the iphone version, either. I don't know why they don't add that.
There is a volume control look on the side of your phone... no the other side those two little up down key thingys. Press the down one... no the bottom one. Yes that one. There you have achieved volume control. Don't worry its the same setup the iphone had so your not in the stone age.

At this point I still like Wordfeud a lot better. No wasted space for a stupid title bar when viewing a board, very slow/laggy, ads everywhere, and I've come to like the random board in Wordfeud that makes the game really interesting.

+1 wordfeud is superior
for me its unfortunate because the friends and family i want to play against all have iphone and words with friends...so hopefully we see improvement.
anyone else having problems with it seeing your contacts? i had started a sep. thread before seeing this
but the issue i am seeing is that despite having tons of contacts on my phone the only contact it sees is my own gmail account when i select to add someone from contact list? any ideas?
Little to flashy, which makes it smaller screen size. Looks like an update just came out to address a bunch of the issues you guys were talking about.
I prefer wordfeud but like others here, most of my friends/family have iphones/ipads, so this is fantastic so I can play against them.
Yes. You are right about the "key thingys," but an in-app volume control or mute would be more useful. I personally think the shuffle sounds are distracting but don't want to turn down other media that I might be playing to avoid hearing them.

issues with words
in the past couple weeks, i've had the following page pop up as soon as i open up words with friends. i have to close and reopen it 10 times to get the screen to go away and let me actually open up a game. has anyone else seen this before, and does anyone know a work around beside just closing and reopening?

Try installing it and opening wordfeud. 100% fix, you'll never see the screen again as long as you don't reinstall wordfeud.

If you are running a custom ROM it could be the host file is blocking the IP addresses of the ads that Words with Friends uses. I was having this issue and ended up going into the host file to edit out a few of the IPs that are used for WWF ads.
Here is an XDA thread to help with the IPs. You will have to do this each time you flash a ROM, but it works. Or you can save your edited host file and copy it over the new one after you flash.
To solve that URL popup, download SGS Tools, go to Fixes, and Update HOSTS File. Worked for me.
After the last update, Words With Friends has been working fine for me. Even though I am enjoying Words With Friends is it worth downloading Wordfeud?

tried to use the SGS tool for this, didn't solve the issue. I'll go in and manually edit the host files I suppose...
edit: i went back and cleared the data after the SGS tools, it works fine now...if only all my games didn't disappear. hopefully when my opponents play their moves the game will come back.

Has anyone figured out the reboot problems?

I thought that by rooting and putting a new ROM on my phone that it'd help out my problems of it rebooting randomly and having a non responsive internet 50% of the time but it hasn't. Anyone else having these problems with their Thrills? About to go back to the iPhone even though i really don't want to
I have occasional reboots, but not often. I know mine is more tinkering with my kernel.
i only had mine reboot once only cuz i killed gta3 the rong way and it crashed
yeah mine does it any time that it has to think about something... i go to post something on facebook and about half the time it freezes and then reboots. I think i've pulled the battery out a couple dozen times this last week because of it just stopping on me

There is no wrong way to close an App/Game.
It's the developer of the app that causes the problem.
ok now i'm finally getting it to where it's saying different apps (mostly clockworkmod) are failing and to either force close or cancel...
Well I jumped out of gta3 with the home button and tryed to go in app manager to close it and probly ran out of ram and crashed instead of backing out of gta3 with the game menu

I just wish Android OS suspended everything when you push the home button and had push notifications instead of persistent checking. All this background running is killing our batteries and causing lockups.

True multitasking has been built into Android (similar to Linux, which it is based) from day one. Here to say it, but that would be a longshot. Best bet would be to become more scrupulous on what apps you download and more critical of the makers when their programs go rogue. Plus turning background data off in settings can help. Fyi.
Note: I don't want you to feel as if I'm being overly critical or a douche here, just realistic with what we have and what we are dealing with.

I hear ya, I know its wishful thinking. I just wish android was as efficient as iOS. Android having Backgrounding from the start was a big perk, but I gotta hand to apple for seeing how inefficient it was and hold off until they found a better solution. Android needs to grab the bull by the horns and convert to that solution.

Menu>accounts and sync>Background Data
Background data allows you to receive emails and your apps to update periodically while your not using your phone. This is the basis of 99% of your notifications. It's kinda the point of having a smart phone in the first place.

I have a feeling it's your router and/or firewall settings.
For example, on my friends connection It'll take me 5mintues to DL a 3mb app from the playstore, but the speedtest is just fine. At home, it'll download in a second or two.
While the phone is the only thing experiencing the issue, your router is the only thing that could be causing it. Have you tried anyone elses wifi?

Compass not calibrated?

I have a new Note 4 that i got on launch day and my compass goes crazy after a day after doing a battery pull. The battery pull fixes it, but not for long. Is there any way i can fix it or should i get a replacement? I hope this isnt a hardware issue... Any help? Thanks! It starts off fine. Then goes off by 120-180 degrees. Help.

Mine is working better now, maybe only 5-10 degrees off and no jitters, i would recommend turning off the phone, taking out the battery, putting the battery bacj in and restarting it, it seems the soft reset did it for me, some temp. Compass files may :laugh:have been messed up, just dont use gps status and toolbox unless its really messed up.
