What The Hell Just Happened To Search Twitter? - Off-topic

I use search.twitter.com or a couple different variants for instantaneous snapshots of what's going on. It's so important, it's my homepage. Only today it's not working. Not "fail whale", it's asking for my sign in. That's a problem since I won't sign up. Can anyone point me to WTFIGO?

Works for me...even signed out.

Get skyfire now!

Go to http://www.skyfire.com/sign-up and sign up for Skyfire with the beta code of cnet100 . I had been on the list for a couple of months and never got it. Sign up with the code even if you have before and you will get a text to download it right away!! Not sure how long this will last for!
Too bad I'm already signed up, and you can't sign up multiple times with the same phone number.
If you signed up for the waiting list and have yet to get the download then click the link and do it again with the code. Thats what I did and had no troubles.

Not sure, Im running it on my Tilt. This is taken from the Skyfire Q&A
Q: Can Skyfire run on my VGA Windows Mobile Phone?
A: Phones with VGA displays (640 x 480 resolution), will not work with the current beta. We support a maximum resolution of 320 x 320 pixels.

On their website it says its not yet available outside the U.S.
Holy Cow!!
It is AMAZING! It even does Flash seamlessly. My MySpace is loaded with Flash and YouTube videos and it loaded them as fast as my MacBook would load them. Thank you for the hookup! Finally, I have a browser that I like, as IE is awful and Opera is quite buggy.
Got SMS with confirmation but no link ...
Thanks!
Been waiting for this forever, much appreciated.
It says my number has already been registered. What if i give it a different phone number, then copy the download link to my phone, will that work?

New swype beta

Does anyone know if the new swype beta is compatable with the eris? Trying to find it for my wife and have had no luck.

I found this over on the android forums.
This should work for you.
It has been working for me with Sense-able Rom 3.1
Thanks for the upload, worked like a charm.

I couldn't tell you, sorry, worked great for my wife she's using the rom Droid does Pink based on Senseable 3.1.
Found a new one here on XDA I have tested it and it is working.

Hey guys I'm really having a hard time making double letters in this new version, it just doesn't seem to work. Old one worked fine before it expired. Any ideas??
I just tried some words with double letters and like Vince its not working well.
after playing around with it for a few found that it seems like the program is not tracking correctly. I have tried the Speed VS Accuracy and it didn't help much if any. I my have to give shapewriter a shot.

So, what you need to do is go into your settings>Language & Keyboard and make sure the box next to Swype is checked. If there is no box there, then the install did not work right. Once you have the box checked, then go into a program that you would be able to type something (text, email, browser, etc) and long press in the box you want to type in. It will come up with some options like copy/paste/input selection. You'll want to choose input selection and then you should be able to choose Swype as your go to keyboard. Hope this helps...
Just thought I'd pop in here and say that if you go to beta.swype.com, you can get into the public beta for the next couple days. This'll let you get the actual current updates.

It's because they haven't released it yet. They have several BETA versions that they're testing. This is why you can't find it on the market. There is ONE version out there with a license that won't give you a "trial period ended" error, but few have it. This is for testing purposes, though it may be annoying for you and others, this is what will make it such great app, extensive testing. It should be soon...looks like they've almost got it nailed down.
FWIW, none of us are even supposed to have this app...be thankful you've gotten to play with it.
I have swype with a license that won't expire. I downloaded it from another thread in the eris forums. Awesome app.

Facebook App Update 1.3

Having issues downloading and installing, can someone post the apk please?
Really, no one thats looked at this can pull and post the apk real quick?
I was coming here to find out the same thing.
Also if anyone knew if it has sync (I'm unsure as to if the official one has it on any of the android versions since the version I'm using has it but it was from an apk I got here on xda).

Thanks for posting the app!

Oh whoops. I read your post as "it doesn't have sync" lol
Haha ok I figured that might have been the issue, looking back I could have worded that better to make it more clear.
Seems the app has major battery drain issues though (which went back to normal after I turned notifications off, sync is still on though), so be aware.
I grabbed mine from here: http://www.freewarelovers.com/android/app/facebook-for-android
Can anyone give me a reason to use this app instead of the FB touch site? As far as I can tell, the touch site does everything the app does, and even more.
The main reasons I use it is for the contacts sync and the (not very good) widget.
How come when I click sync now for my facebook friends it doesnt update their new photos it shows their old photos in contacts
anyone have an idea

THINK of it as a preview of whats to come with more tabletesque apps coming this spring. Honeycomb or no honeycomb.
I'm having a problem with the alignment of the touchscreen vs. the article I'm trying to select. I have to touch about an inch and a half to the left to select what I want. Anyone else having this issue? Only happening with this app.

I am having this same issue, on Zpad 3.0 clean.

Pulse widget
Has anyone had any luck using Pulse with their widgets? I've tried several things but whenever I try to put one on my homescreen I get an error saying there isn't enough room for it on that page. Even when it's an empty screen.
Anyone else have this problem, I'm using TntLite 3.0 and I've come across it with a few apps but Pulse is the only one that I can think of that I really, really would like.
looks great on this big screen
Thanks for the tip.

Nope, I'm on Vegan 5.1. I love the app, but hard to get past having to select two squares to the right to pick the one you want.

this happened in older versions of Pulse...
If you have the newest version from the Market, the problem was fixed...
If you don't see Pulse in the Market, you may have to do the "Fix" a few times before it shows up...

I had a similar problem before so I tried again on a blank screen and got the small widget to show. Problem is that the widget takes up unnecessary space so I resized it with Launcher Pro.

Videos of Keyboard Lag

I managed to upload some videos of the incredibly annoying typing lag I experience on my Note5. I've got the running process showing and you can see how weird the keypresses get at the end of each one.
Here they are:
https://youtu.be/eQ-HgtMmCFg
https://youtu.be/yW970htrhU8 (Note the touches keep going while all keypress popups and text entry stops.)
https://youtu.be/NRuLXa6m3mA
Does anyone else experience this?
Here http://i.imgur.com/6zcUZ17.png is a nice screen shot showing just how annoying the overlaping stuff can be.
Any help is appreciated.
I know it's annoying having an issue list this out of the box, but no one claims Samsung is good a developing software. I'd say go for a 3rd party keyboard. I'm using Google's and it's smooth as butter.

Hey First of~~ Mine is s6e+ I have heard that issue from s6e+ users too(with swype keyboard). I would suggest you to turn off keyboard Pop upping but that would be odd If you like it..(I like when it pops up)~
Im using Touchpal for long years, and can prefer you to try(If not) and recorded a >>VIDEO<< to show how it works on mine anyway.. Lol ignore the background music etc.. Good luck.
