Anyone? At all?
I never "got" Twitter
I dont feel important enough to believe that anyone would care what I was doing "right now". Conversely, I'm not interested in being constantly informed what anyone else is doing right now. I know a couple people that use it, but it seems like one more thing to keep up with.
just my .02
i am a fairly recent Twitterer. Was travelling recently and found it a way of passing messages back and forth.
I use it. username: cp1md2b
http://twitter.com/omarnova follow me
I don´t use twiter, facebook or any others
You have to invest time on them and makes you a vicious in a few weeks
I know myself, prefer to stay away...now too many hours in front my laptop...between my work and XDA.
I can´t imagine if I use one of those apps...my wife would kill me!
EDIT: Now using Facebook and tweet but limited time....

lol! I didn't think I'd use it at all, but I was surprised by how many did use, like developers and news groups. Great way to get info/news as it happens.
are you guys/gals using twitter via your mobile phone or are using it via your laptop? Im asking cause i want to be able to use it via my phone (touch pro). wanting to know what app or cab i could use to install on my device.
Using it on both depending where i am at the time.
Personally the best app for the PPC i have found is PockeTwit. It works and is being updated regularly. The updating is built into the app as well.
I have had issues using it to upload to TwitPic so i keep ceTwit in the device as well.
I have twitter, but using it only for my website, not for personal needs (seems useless for me).
But anyway, if anyone wants to fallow me here is:

twitter is public and people don't need an account to read messages. I have a couple of friends who follow my Twitter stream to see what i am doing without an acount for themselves. Also for access from my Trinity, the Twitter clients are so much easier to use and faster.
On the Iphone there is an app that allows you to see other iphone users in your area and chat with them is there such an app on android ?
Stephen Fry had it on his iphone when he was on topgear a few months back. I am looking for something similar but not focused on a particualr sex.

There's one thats called gfinder or something similar. I'll try and find the exact name unless someone else can chime in.
When I first went into the t-mobile store to check out the g1, they showed me something similiar to what you are asking but the downfall was that other g1 users had to opt in to use it. For some reason I thought it was part of the original cupcake software
Now that I checked, it is right in google maps, called latitude
latitude
Does latitude have general people on it or do you have to add friends before you can use it ???
It's friends only.

You have to add friends but the gfinder or gfindster just see's everyone, but of course they would have to have the app installed. I used it a long time ago and didn't think much of it. While looking that up I saw another app called loopt that looks like the same thing, I could be wrong tho.
Latitude works for everybody. Not just G1 users. It uses your Gmail account to send request to other people who have to accept you and allow you to see where they are at and chat and stuff. Works nicely, but you have to know their e-mail address to get them added.
So, no you can not find random people with G1's to connect with. I don't know if there is an app that will allow that, but Latitude will not.
I believe you have to opt in to use it, general people on there and since it requires your gps to use, I don't think that you will find any one using except for the most basic users that are unaware that turning off the gps saves you some serious battery life
Aight I just looked it up and its call GFindster PREMIUM but they also have a lite version.
Hmmm, seems like the salesman at t-mobile gave me the wrong info then but since I never used it, I was baseing my info on inacurate info, sorry

No your right cause they was pushing the whole latitude thing. But GFindster is just a seperate app that looks up anyone without having them listed as friends.
thankyou
Thankyou you all for your help I will check out the gfindster app and see how it goes.
you should also check out buddymob
shows where all users are on a map around you and you can click on their little dot (pink for women, blue for guys) and it will show you their profile without having to be their friend
Can someone please post up the APK to see if it's going to work on other carriers!?
Thanks
It's been a little over a month since Verizon announced it would unleash the VoIP hounds on select smartphones, an interesting move give AT&T's wrangling with the FCC over Google Voice and begrudging approval of Skype over 3G. Early this morning the Skype Mobile app hit the Android Marketplace for Verizon devices (and only Verizon devices), and while it does work on 3G, it curiously doesn't work on WiFi -- at all. Click on through for some screenshots and our impressions.

I'd love this! Even if only the text chatting works, as text chat was very unstable/buggy/slow on the older skype App.
This Skype app is tied to Verizon... I've tried it... got the app from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=652232

No way am I paying $5 per month, that's BS !!!
I have 8 unwanted ATT apps on my phone right now !!! (and have to buy one/service to block a number)?
Locked boot loader, no CRs, no way to block individual numbers, low audio can only be fixed if rooted, and there's is other stuff that I forgot.
Not impressed by Android so far, (love the phone). Looks like I picked the wrong year to switch to android !!!
IOS 7 is JB, I hope I don't regret my decision to switch to android. :crying:
What's the big deal? $5 a month really going to impact the rest of your life so drastically? Would you rather be on a limited unlimited network with terrible services, no customer service, lies, etc... The ROM I use let's me 'block'/ignore calls and texts. Not sure if your has that option.

Android is far better than iOS, IMO. Don't destroy your entire experience because of a company decision to charge for a feature.

Yes, you can. No need to install anything. Any new device has a rejection mode for calls and sms.

Open call log , click on desired contact/number, once it opens press the menu button and add to reject list. Done

Thanks, you guys are great.
I made my own call rejection message, but I cannot find how to assign it to a contact?
Also, I see the number is blocked from calling, but what about sms, (which is where I am getting bothered by my x)

My first "mention" .............. cool :good:
Thanks a lot. :good:
I set my phone up using that link, then added it to my favorites.
I use Blacklist Pro from the Play Store. Its free and allows you to block any number from calls and text, as well as private and unknown numbers.

Did you even check message options? If you open your stock messenger, tap menu and settings, then tap more, there is a spam filter you can have off or on. If you turn it on you have to option to block specific numbers that send annoying text or spam. I mean it is massages that you say you want to block so messing with call blocking is pretty much pointless and you should have looked at message settings first.:good:

That 100% bullcrap.
I appreciate your help, but please don't say that about me.
I google, use search features on all sites, roam around in my own settings, BEFORE I ask questions on this board.
Please, please, please, do NOT put me in THAT category of (peeps who are too lazy to search), I am NOT one of them!
Especially since one of the regular senior members here suggested I had to pay att $5 per month for smart limits.
not only is this thread "needed", it should be made a "sticky"

I did a Google search for "blocking messages of the note 3" and the first five hits all had the same information posted on post 9.
So maybe Google or whatever search engine you used in your region blocks some stuff. Or your search terms where not clear enough.
I'm not trying to put you down or anything, it's just took me maybe 3 minutes tops to find the information on Google with those terms.

You are fantastic! Clearly way better than me, (and I'm ok with that).
We should close this site down (and just use Google) !!!
As a matter of fact, why have any forums at all.
You and I both know you can google anything, so why bother having these sites.
edit - guess how I found XDA Developers :wink:
Hey friends, I already came to know that whenever someone want some application, you cannot find it out although it's available in play store. So I decided to make a WhatsApp group for helping to those who need some kind of applications, games or have some kind of S5 related problems. They can discuss it freely over there and can find a solution to it.
So those who wish to join this group of Android Community kindly PM me.
