Twitter tab numpty? - HD2 General

Am I being a numpty?
In the Twitter tab, I can't see a way of bringing up a list of who I'm following in Twitter.
Is it just me, or is it not actually there?
Ta.

Ha no I can't find that option either. So no, you're not alone

I just wanted to tweet @ somebody, and can't figure out how! Guess it's back to having a seperate app

Yeah same problem here. Although I'm a WM6.5 n00b so if you find a decent Twitter app that works well can you let me know what it is??
Cheers.

I was using Panoramic moTweets on my HD, and that was great. I tried a few others, and they're all pretty much the same, but I'd recommend that.
There's a free version with an add at the top of your tweets list, or a paid version that was only a few dollars.

I think it's now available on marketplace as well, but I'd never recommend that piece of poo until you can install on your storage card as standard!

I'll give it a whirl, great stuff, thanks.

Facebook, no 'Like' in News/Update pages, and cant see comments!!

Where is the 'Like' button and why on earth can you only see the original status posted by a friend and not any comments made about that status???
I Commented on a friends status only to find out (logged on from my PC) that 4 other people had already commented and so my comment made no sense! lol

Yeah I must say coming from the iPhone the facebook app on win mob is terrible! Ok I know its pretty sad saying that but tbh before having my iPhone I didn't use facebook much but because the facebook app on the iPhone was such a pleasure to use I really got in to it... I'm having to use facebook on opera now.
Dump the FB app, it's utterly useless.
Use http://touch.facebook.com instead. Better, faster, and works awesome in Opera.
Thats what I have been using shame there isnt a facebook app that works though..

Much better!
I'm not hugely into FB but it would of been nice to at least be able to use it as it's a preinstalled app!!
Considering the guy who developed the iphone version of facebook app fell out with apple due to its ridiculous app store approval process, they should get him to make a WM version!

Been using the touch.facebook.com for a few days now and you guys are right so much better then the app for WM... but just wondering if anyone else is having an issue with it being slow to update news feeds? Seems to be way behind at times!
ive had that problemw ith the touch site, but the main diffeerence for me between the iPhone app, is the lack of facebook chat, thats a nice feature!
Thanks for the heads-up regarding touch.facebook - didn't know about that! The winmo facebook ap is not very fully featured at all, which is a shame, because it wouldn't be a difficult application to write. That said, browsing being as good as it is on the HD2, i usually just visit the full facebook site. With pinch zooming i find it a breeze to navigate. Touch is probably a more sensible option though i guess. Just replaced my facebook ap quicklink with the facebook touch bookmark

Yeah, at the bottom is a link to "Mobile Site" which is m.facebook.com I think - that has the news feed issue fixed, but isn't as finger-friendly (it's not bad tho).
Neither of them allow you to view or tag photos very well IMO, a decent FB WinMo app would be very welcome.

Facebook app

apart from the official facebook app are there any alternatives to it because its a bit of a hit and miss for me.
Nope not really mate..
There is touch.facebook.com though in your browser
Yeah, the 'official' ones always seem to be a bit picky - apart from the Apple one it seems... I've had comments fail to post using the WM Marketplace version of the MS FB app every time when I use the physical QWERTY keyboard, but hardly ever when usin gthe on-screen one, for example. It never failed to post a status update though, on either kb
if you don't like the Touch site, there's always the half-way version at m.facebook.com.
i'm using babbler atm its amazing and notifies you on anything you want instead of just the handfew offered by the official app. gotta say the one for blackberry was actually on par with iphone i gotta say.
Yeah, I used Babbler for quite a while on my G1 - not got around to installing it on the Desire yet. Best thing was that it notified you whenever someone "liked" your status or photo, which no other app does AFAIK
What about bloo? Ive installed that atm cus Babbler seemed slow..
I only had lite though, dunno if pro is faster?
Bloo has always been good IMO
Whats the notifications like? No ones sent me anything yet so i dunno! lol
bloo keeps not letting me read peoples post saying i'm not their friends etc?

APP---11 June 2010 - Magic Poker - A must have app!

This is a post for my friend Jonathan, he has made an awesome app that will scramble your friends brains. It's free and on the market place. He doesn't tell u how to do the trick, but with a little practice and a guess he will email u the directions. See his email below.
Hey guys, this is my first android app. It's called magic poker flip, which is a poker magic property app. You can use it to flip out others selected card by touching the screen. Show it on a party will be cool. You may watch my video here.
Now the android version is on android market as a free app. It's now v2.0, and tested well on 2.1 & 2.2. Not sure about 1.6 & 2.0, but seems can't work on 1.5. The secret of the trick is hidden inside the app, maybe you can guess by yourself how the trick works or try to find the solution somewhere in the app.
Hope you guys will like it and wish you have fun! Thanks!
Thanks Chris for helping me. Some guys have sent me email and just guess the solution right. Congrats..
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It's two month after my app was published, and tomorrow will be my 21st birthday, so I think it's time to reveal the secret to all you guys, no matter you've solved it or still stuck in it or planning to download it.
The solution of the trick is hidden in 'tutorial', you can enter and reverse your phone to check it if you can't figure it out.
Here I want to thank all the guys who sent my email or PM, your encouragements are my motivation to go further.
For the WM users, really sorry for the delay of your version. I promise it will be OK at early September, at which time I may finish my school project.
Nice app, I'll private message you my guess and my suggestion.
i don't get it. so does the trick work by you revealing a card that someone has chosen?

yes, you can play it with your friend after you get the right solution to the app, like i did in the video.
alright then, i shall try to figure it out. will pm you once i think i got it right
EDIT: Ok, i figured out 50% already. Now to find out the other half
2nd EDIT: I figured out 99% already. Just left that 1%
By the way, this app is really awesome. Smart technique.
Final EDIT: I've solved it! This magic app is by far the most innovative and well thought off that I have seen. (unlike some iphone magic apps that I've tried)
Ha, thanks for the appreciation! Good for you to get it. Just GO & SHOW to your friends, it will be COOL.

Why is it he uses the computer to pick a card? I don't really get it.
I've tried pointing so the camera can see the card and I've tried saying what the card is, the app just gives a random card :?
hmmm, i havent figure it out yet, but was wondering if there is or will be a WM version?

When he finishes his exams, he is going to work on a WM version, but has quite a bit of coding to do. Wish him luck on his exams and I'm sure we'll see Magic Poker and others like it this summer. Good luck Jonathan! And get that Paypal working so we can send ya a dollar. It's the least we could do for your unique App!
Good luck with your exams, Jonathan
mhm....i got it to get the numbers i want, but the colors make me some kind of trouble
EDIT: got the colours also to do what i want...it's pretty neat and well done
Took 2min to find out.
It's pretty neat though.
Great app, guys.
Thanx, I promise it will come to wm, but maybe I can not work this month became of the school assignments. However, I'll reply your email ASAP. If you have some ideas or some needs you can tell me via email and I'll try to create more apps which bring you more fun. Love you, guys.

[Q] Phone to PC Video Chat

So I am trying to set up video chatting for phone to PC use. I have found that Yahoo works, but it only comes out the back camera of my phone. Does anyone know of a fix for this? Or is this standard? If so, are there any other apps?
I have only ever heard of Yahoo working from phone to PC. Thanks in advance.
My ffc worked before I installed CM7. I also have been trying to figure this out. help!
I also want to know!

I am pretty damn surprised that this isn't a more popular question. Barely any replies. I still have had no luck with any phone to PC that works with FFC.
I see you are in Maui. Right on bra, born and raised. Live on the mainland now. Upcountry represent. MAUI BUILT.
Look for "CM7 Yahoo camera fix" or something like that, in Development forum.

i have the same problem but i dont think it has anything to do with cm7.. yahoos video chat doesnt work with gingerbread. thats why i think it doesnt work right. but im not 100% sure of that but makes since. it doesnt show that it works for gingerbread if u read what devices it supports for the add on video chat thing for yahoo messenger
Google coming out with their gtalk app its a pc to phone phone to phone app. Wait for that as it will be significantly better. Yahoo won't work as it looks for the hacks in froyo to get the ffc to work they need to upgrade for gingerbread support so that that can use correct api.

yeah, I thought it was really funny how the day after I posted in this topic, Google made that announcement.
also, I'm born and raised here in Maui as well, but I'm moving to Honolulu in a few weeks.
Cant find gtalk on the market right now, my guess the new version will be out very soon.

WoW! Multi-tasking browser?? Link!

WoW!!!
How good does this look?
Only prob is it is not a free app, and probably rightly so as I have never seen an android browser do this before!
If anyone gets it, post review here.
Enjoy

ok i had to try this.. works great. I cant wait until all apps can work in a window like this.. Im guessing its using the widget resize technology.
Thanks for the heads up.

Here is score and a few things it did not do so well on. Looks like its good for basic browsing.
Hope this is helpful
I am running on Vache rom with the acer rings wifi patch and 3.01 patch.
This is pretty darn sweet. Thanks for the find MJ-12, and thanks ER for the screenshots. Worth double the price.
Your very welcome I have been using it all day.
Its kinda a taste to what I think android will become. The same Dev has a few other floating. Apps. Like a calculator.
definitely cool enough to drop a buck and a half on. I played with it for a few minutes and then moved on but when the time comes and I need a couple browsers at the ready Ive got an app for that!
If any developers are interested in how he's doing it, he's registering the app as a service and drawing to the notification layer which also allows you to intercept (and act upon) touch events.
Not saying this app is doing it, but beware of apps that request those permissions, they could in theory log every touch on your screen.
Chrome Beta does much better

Chrome beta scores 350 approx already... guess they might add such feature in the future
That is pretty slick. They have a calculator that does the same thing too. True multitasking here we come!
Just tried it, works great, thanks for sharing!
had this since i read about it on...... where was it, phandroid or android central, one of the two.
definetly worth the money. don't use it that much but its really nice when i do.
tip: leave browser defaults unchecked, so your tab prompts you to choose a browser and you can choose overskreen. its like window's "open link in new window"
