Change default twitter app

Hi - does anyone know of a way to change the default twitter app in the friendfeed from Peep to Touiteur (Which IMO is a FAR better twitter app)?? I only got my handset today and it's my first android device - so slowly getting to grips with it!
CHeers,

SWIFT is one of best twitter clients on android

No, sorry, i don't, but in terms of better twitter apps, have you looked at SWIFT ? It's been the new rising star in twitter clients on android.
On a second note: Since I have not yet received my Desire, could you pleas post either screenshots or a list of settings/preferences that DO show for Friendfeed? I ask specifically about setting intervals for refreshing the stream. Does it provide separate refresh rates for each of the feeds, or just one main one, or none at all?
I ask because this is predictably going to be the biggest battery drainer on the Desire, so I am just getting a leg up before getting my device :;
Sorry - i spoke too son and not even checked out:

looks like a great twitter client -- and what i just found out is it supports the "twitlonger" API, which makes it, to me all the more useful.

Why twitlonger?

Ok, my wife is the one with the Desire, but from using latest version on my Hero.
Just go to Settings> Accounts & Sync
Click on Twitter, then simply click on 'Remove Account'
That will remove all twitter from FriendFeed.
Then simply use whatever other app you want, either by clicking on the app icon to start it, or by installing the app's widget if it has one.

Thanks for this, but I would like to continue using the friend feed, just not use peep as the default app when opening a post from the friend feed.
@quicksite - No settings I can see for refreshing at all...Battery life was pretty poor yesterday, but i did play non stop with my new toy for like 8 hours

[Q] Brilliant Idea! But I can't do it...

I wish I knew how to develop worth anything so I could put this into reality:
I'd love a widget that streamed updates (like a ticker maybe?) from all kinds of sources on your phone. It could grab unread emails, facebook updates, news posts, weather, etc. Just generally all updated content from your phone. Sort of like a 'What's Going On in Your Phone' ticker.
Is this possible? Would anyone be willing to create this? I would buy much beer for he who could.
you mean the notification bar

Lol! Yep..

It's a good question/idea. I'll see if there's a way of grabbing the notifications to put them in a widget.
C'mon seriously why would you need an extra widget for that? DRY principle anyone?
I would buy this thing the day it comes out, if ever! Amazing idea, would make the phone more useful and also provide a good look to it!

There could be various reasons to have such an app, mate! It might not be useful to you but maybe to others. If you don't like it, then you can always uninstall it, if ever you install! I, personally, would want such an app.
HTC Sense has a widget called friendstream which does this sort of thing, email, facebook and twitter etc.
There is a Friends widget at Launcher Pro Plus (Paid 2.99. I am too happy with it that I donate 5)
Twitter, Facebook Buzz etc are supported, not sure about emails though. I use seperate widgets for each one.
Well, if I catched it up right, you're looking for a phone like the Samsung Galaxy S Continuum with it's extra ticker display?

Don't update the Notes widget to 1.60, because it doesn't add any new feature and is the wrong resolution so looks all stretched and a bit cut of.
I have a problem with the battery widget. When I update the widget list the battery widget appeared with update available. After installing the update it still appears with update available status.

I just remembered that I had all my apps backed up. Attached the old 1.50 version, works fine.
Does somebody have the apk file for HTC task widget? Mine is not working for some reason.
Thanks...

Android Facebook Widget

Sorry if this is in the wrong place.
The stock Android Facebook widget doesn't seem to be syncing correctly on the widget face. I can got into the app and get all the recent status updates but on the widget it self "up to date" status is like 3 days old.
Any one know of a fix or is it the facebook app its self.
I am running cm7 nightly 14 with newest gapps 307.
Thanks for any answers and wondering how many of you this is effecting as well.
Same here! I'm running a Sense ROM. Sometimes it works right then all of the sudden I'm looking at dude's ugly mug from last Wednesday. I was beginning to think maybe it didn't compile correctly after i modded. Glad to see I'm not alone!
Yea same here... caused me to stop using the widget. I don't have a fix for it myself... but I think it will be taken care of eventually.
I did more research outside of XDA and it look like its a problem within facebook and not Android or Roms.

New Calendar with TW update

I got the TW update this morning, and with it came a new calendar app. I don't like it. I think the stock HC 3.1 calendar app was much nicer. Any way to get it back?
I saw a lot of people getting hyped for this update, but honestly I'm not sure I like it much at all. The replacement for the taskbar popup, where you can see your wifi network, settings button, etc, isn't all that great. It's too big, and I can't click on the wifi network name anymore which would jump me right to the wifi part of settings. Annoying.
I'd be happy with getting the old calendar app back, and short of that would be interested in rolling back to the previous version if possible.
I totally agree. I hate the new calendar app and desperately want to switch back to the old version. I haven't figured out how to do it yet.
Also, the color change of the bottom menu bar from black to gray is really bothering me for some reason.
That's what you guys get I saw all this bull**** from reviews on youtube and I decided not to update
I like the new calendar app just fine. To each his own I guess.
I agree. The skinned apps stink overall. The samsung apps social hub and photo editor are pretty good. I might just flash back.
The stock google calendar is hw accelerated. You can tell Samsung did not use hw acceleration for their calendar. Its not as smooth when you scroll around. Disappointing.
been searching whole xda and found 2 links to the stock honeycomb.apk from the NOOK section. but these are for honeycomb 3.0, didnt try it yet.
any dev who has the stock calendar.apk for honeycomb 3.1?
seems more users are having problems with getting the stock calender back while having touchwiz UX.
Bumpity bump bump bump bumpy bump....
Isn't there a way to download this apk from Google directly? Dump from a Xoom rom?
I've even *****ed at @SamsungSupport for the poor Calendar implementation. The TW "improvement" is about as worthless as keeping your calendar on a napkin.
