I've noticed all my posts via Peep are not included in any threads displayed in desktop clients such as Tweetie (OS X).
All my posts from other Twitter clients are included in the 'conversation' thread if you double click a post.
Are they not using the Twitter API to its full ?
Just been Tweeting with @htc and am told its an issue with the Reply to API. i.e. They currently don't fully support it.
It will be looked into.
having a threaded view of a Twitter conversation is very useful, could be added to Peep too if they wanted too. But even just having it supported so other clients can see threaded posts will be handy.
Hats off to @htc for the speedy and interested response
I don't rate peep try twidroid it not pretty but it does the job
I quite like Peep
With some added functionality it would be even better.

Does it include Yahoo! Messenger? Also, does it take all your Yahoo! friends and add them to your phone's contacts? What does it include?
As you can tell, I tried 2.0 a while ago -- and it took me 3 days after uninstallation to get my phone back to the original state. LOL....
Just to let you know Version 3 is still in BETA.
Ok... Just spent an hour toying with it and uninstalled after it crashed multiple times while pulling up emails, and then later, traffic. Too bad, cuz it looks like Yahoo! is making gains on a service that Microsoft has dominated for a while now (Live and Live Search). To answer my earlier questions for anyone who's interested, no, it doesn't pull in all your friends into your phone's contacts... and it has everything it shows on the Yahoo! Go website -- which of course does NOT include messenger or GPS-aided maps/turn-by-turn directions.
I do see some nice improvements from v2.0 in the user interface -- real nice animated carousel for selecting which widget you want to use. If you have multiple Yahoo! accounts, though, you will have to uninstall and reinstall anytime you want to change IDs. That sucked. Also, as I stated before, the maps and directions function cannot utilize GPS. Email doesn't show HTML/pictures. And again, there is NO messenger built in (HUGE bummer -- I'll keep using free Slick Messenger).
So, for those who must use Yahoo! for whatever reason, this will be a nice step in the right direction. Otherwise, folks like myself will most likely continue using Microsoft Live and Live Search (gotta luv that speech recognition!)

Contact sync removed
It appears that Yahoo! Go 3 beta no longer includes a contact sync feature. That was one feature that came in handy with v2. Bummer.
I also found that you cannot log into for your existing flickr account. they make you create a new one.

Not true! I had no trouble logging into my flckr account.
Anyone willing to work and craft a means so that Facebook Chat will work on Windows Mobile? Seems like a natural addition to any IM'ing that's already done on WM.
Any takers for the development?
ya that would be great
I was thinking about this recently, it really would make a great addition...
Perhaps this suggestion should be made to the Palringo developers as well.
Since I'm rather fond of Palringo now .
One would probably have to make a facebook application to acomplish this and also I don't think the facebook devs have opened up chat to application developers.
i like the idea since in recent days i've started using facebook chat.
if you use skyfire i believe you can use the facebook chat..
facebook chat app: any news?
Any news on this? I see pidgin now works with facebook on the desktop version. They say that it would take some effort to port pidgin to windows mobile so I don't see that happening yet. It does show that it is possible
code for pidgin app is at:
http://code.google.com/p/pidgin-facebookchat/
There is already a facebook application out there. Not sure if the creator minds if I post it. Besides, its freeware. I use it daily.

i've been using that app recently but, as far as i can tell, it doesn't have facebook chat.
So these apps ive tried on here does not have live chat. Does anything exist? I have skyfire but a window wont popup to let me chat. Waiting for facebook live chat on Win Mobile....
Yeigo has recently included Facebook chat in their application (along with the usuals like Skype/Googletalk/MSN etc). There is a Windows Mobile version as well as Symbian/Java.
You can download the app at www.getyeigo.com or visit www.yeigo.com for more information.

Thanks for the refrence... I tried Yeigo. It looks promising, however I'm having problems. I cant get my MSN contacts to populate. When I chat on facebook I can send messages but when people write back I dont get them.
Can someone else try this program and report back? I have a Tilt on AT&T edge. I have yet to try wifi.

Hey Praygo. We're currently having some issues with the MSN gateway so no one is receiving their MSN friends - we're working on this and hopefully everything will be back to normal by tomorrow.
The facebook code is pretty new so there might still be a few lingering bugs to sort out and we'll be watching for those. From my experience it's been working great. If you continue having issues send us an email at [email protected] and we'll see what we can do to sort you out.
Thanks,
Andrew

I tried Yeigo and i LOVE it. i have a moto q with alltel and i use it for facebook chat and it works great...only thing id want to see changed is the beep to maybe a sound and also a vibrate alert.
Fring has a facebook plugin. Not sure if it's for chat, but if a IM program has a facebook plugin I can only assume that it's for the chat feature....
Yeigo.com is hacked?
would love to try skyfire but its for U.S only and requires signup queue for beta users........
not tasty!

After jealously observing the Facebook app on my wife's Blackberry Pearl, I am shocked that neither ShoZu, Snap2Face/Skybook nor FriendMobilizer have come close to matching the simple elegance of Facebook for Blackberry. Each of the aforementioned Windows Mobile apps, I believe, will fail to become very popular among users because they are trying to do fundamentally different things than the official Blackberry and iPhone apps.
So I'm going to attempt to specify the basic features that would make for the best "Facebook for Windows Mobile" application. The developer who carries these out will, I predict, quickly dominate the rest.
What we already have
A couple of mobile-friendly versions of the FB user interface. Whether you use http://m.facebook.com in PIE, or http://iphone.facebook.com in Opera Mobile/IrisBrowser, or indeed desktop-level Facebook in Skyfire/Opera Mini/etc., we already have great ways to passively view most of Facebook. FB apps for WM appear to have devoted most efforts to remaking their own, sometimes uglier interfaces for viewing the same information. While this introduces the possibility of offline synchronization, this is nowhere near a key functional benefit offered on Blackberry and iPhone. The trend is toward more users having data plans and ubiquitous data connections.
A way to access Facebook Chat. 3rd-party multiprotocol chat applications offer this for Windows Mobile already.
Several ways to update your status. You can do this through Facebook Mobile, SMS, etc.
A crappy way to upload mobile photos. You can send an MMS to [email protected] - not ideal and lacks the ability to place photos in specific albums, tag, etc. But it is a start.
A crappy way to receive notifications. The FB notifications feed is actually available via RSS, and several free RSS clients exist for Windows Mobile.
A really crappy way to new FB message alerts and everything else. Suppose you registered a new Gmail account devoted solely to receiving Facebook notification emails. You could register that address with your Facebook settings, set it as the address to receive email notifications and then turn on notifications for everything that happens on Facebook. After setting up this email account on your Windows Mobile device, you could receive regular alerts from Facebook on your mobile device. (Heck, with System SEVEN beta or some other service that utilizes the IMAP IDLE feature, you could essentially have "push" FB alerts).
What we don't have (but Blackberry does)
Based on the features listed at http://na.blackberry.com/eng/devices/features/social/facebook.jsp , you can see that the man feature that WM users don't have is "push"-style homescreen notifications. On the Blackberry homescreen, the number of new Facebook notifications and messages sits beside a little FB icon. It is updated immediately as new messages and notifications are received.
Thus I would propose the following specifications for a WM Facebook app (or suite of mini-apps). The Facebook Developers API should be used, not some unreliable html-parsing library.
1. New/unread FB messages and notifications on a "push" or rapid-refresh basis. This either means (a) a Today screen plugin that lists the unread message counts and points Pocket IE to the appropriate http://m.facebook.com link when tapped, (b) WM popup notifications of the same, or (c) a MAPI interface library that allows the FB Inbox and/or FB Notifications feed to be added as regular mail accounts in Pocket Outlook - letting WM take care of popups if the user so desires.
2. A photo upload and tagging tool. The user must be able to select a photo (or take one) and then choose to either add it to any existing album or create a new one, followed by the option to tag that photo.
3. Dedicated Facebook chat. If it is easy, of course.
Everything else on Facebook - contacts search, Phonebook, etc - is just as easy to access on the existing Facebook Mobile site. My instinct is that developers inevitably waste our memory with bloated software when they make "native" interfaces that just rehash the content at http://m.facebook.com/
Or am I missing something? Maybe others have thoughts. I'm no developer and I don't mean to sound demanding - I'm just trying to give developers some ideas here.
would be fine if someone would fix the iphone.facebook.com java problems
libpurple already incorporates facebook im but i dont think there is a client for windows mobile that uses it. As for uploading, you can upload pictures but not videos directly from a touch series phone (videos are uploaded to youtube). If the protection can be stripped from an ipa and the can be decrypted then I dont understand why we cant port the facebook.app. I have an iPhone 3G and an iPod Touch, both jailbroken. I'll SSH into them and grab the files for the facebook app but the rest needs to be done by someone else. Just give me sometime to find them.

wFacebook will have ALL of these things that you mentioned. A little patience is all that is needed. I started developing this only 2 weeks ago Thanks for the breakdown though, it gives me something to work towards. I hope to have facebook chat up and running in the next release. Push style notifications will come as soon as I can figure out an "always signed on" connection to facebook. Photos and tagging are very easy to do, I just haven't gotten around to implementing it.
What you have to realize is that the blackberry apps and iPhone apps are both designed by facebook. They access facebook's data directly. Facebook does not allow this in its API so we have to find workarounds. Blackberry has nothing to do with it's facebook application (as far as I know). Facebook developed and maintains it.
Also, thanks for the tip on the rss feed. I did not know this and this may help with notifications!
Give computerjunkie some time....
And all the requested features will be hopefully implemented.
Btw since you have a BB and have positive feelings regarding it's user experience and user interface it would be great if you could dedicate some time to write down some detailed specs !
Ciao
Marco
The BB app doesn't really have a "push" notification system. All apps that use notifications, like Facebook and MySpace, are simple emails. When the same email account is registered under the BB profile, and Facebook profile, it recognizes the FB notification email as the app specific notification, and gives the notification instead of the email.
But, on the app, I really don't like it much, so I don't suggest it as your "template". All it really does is give you the notifications, allow you to update your status and view your friends list. You can't view profiles or photos through the app, it opens the browser, and you have to login! Further more, the news feed only shows the notifications, like birthdays and comments.
Try something like the BB MySpace app, I love that one! You can flow through pictures and view everything in the app.
wFacebook will be like the BB myspace app. You won't have to log in to the website to see info. It will be fetched from the application itself. Also, it will have push style notifications (maybe not ALL notifications but most: Wall, Inbox, photo comment, etc.). I am looking into an always on (or as close to always on) so when the notification occurs, wFacebook automatically fetches the info THEN notifies the user so all the user has to do is start up wFacebook and check the item. Also with the semi-always on connection, wFacebook users won't have to keep logging in to facebook which right now is taking about 1.5 minutes with wFacebook because of data speeds on mobile machines.
Problem with the xda app is it requires .NET 3.5
iphone.facebok.com in Skyfire is the best solution for me.
though I think a windows mobile facebook app is much needed I have to agree the very Bloated net cf is def not the way to go. I do appreciate all you are doing as this app has potential to be very useful . thanks again for all your hard work. pleasyo code in "C"
Hi guys,
I am totally fed up with HTC's twitter client Peep. It doesn't auto-update correctly - does when it feels like it, same with the tweet tone. It also seems like it couldn't care any less about my "download last 50 tweets" restriction. Every morning, I end up downloading some 200+ tweets that have accumulated over the night.
Hence the big question... is there any way we can replace Peep with another twitter client and have that new client linked to the Twitter tab in Sense?
You'd be able to use another one but as to editing Sense - I don't know
I want to write a Email to APP developers to introduce my product, how could I get lot of Email address of developers especially Android developers?
I have tried to get some Email address from Googleplay but it is not as useful as I thought.
A friend tell me that ,"You can get a help from linked in. Try to find out profiles of Android app developers in linked in. Also you can use Facebook, twitter and Google+. More on, you can find professional profiles on job finding websites like monster, indeed etc."
Thanks for his suggestion but what I really want to get is a lot of Email addresses at once rather than I search their information in social network one by one.
Is there some tools or products can help me?
Use this forum?
Sent from my Z10 using Tapatalk
Yes, Social Media is the powerful tool to get the contacts and linkedin is the best and professional. Join in Android groups and become the member and get in touch with other members to promote your app.
You can get developers email just grab it directly from GooglePlay with simple parser

There is a chrome extension for that. I don't know the name
Parsing a list of email address isn't a good idea. When was the last time you received a spam message you liked?
I agree with @Whatinside. Any spam email that hits my inbox are immediately reported as such and deleted.
I think creating a "webbinar" or a landing page, where you make something special, and simply ask for their email.
Social Media is the best way to connect people. LinkedIn is the one of the best social media platform. You can join the groups of relevant field and from their you can get their email-ids. Similarly you can get email-ids from facebook, twitter, google+.
