Don't know if its just me but is anyone else finding Facebook unusable. I updated it the other day for her and now she keeps complaining to me that its takes about half an hour just to scroll threw it as all the pictures are to big and keep taking up the whole screen
It's Facebook's new timeline update. It's how it is. Lol.
Think she will have to get used to it about time her fingers did some work anyway
Yeah, they didnt really take into consideration how the pictures would look on larger landscape devices. I'm sure it looks ok on phones, but tablets....yeah that's a different story.
Had a quick look on it today every picture takes ages to scroll threw. The only good thing is at least she will leave my tab alone now

The official Facebook app? I found it lacking in so many ways. Personally use facedroid, but there are other free apps that also beat the official app by miles.

Friendcaster is by far the best Facebook app, and FAR better than the official one.
Better interface, faster, easier to navigate, integrated Facebook Chat.
Only problem at the moment seems to be inbox messaging, though I believe that is being sorted.
I tried out Friendcaster and the UI is nice, and seems faster but the photos don't work. They are all pixelated. Also, I had it open and was switching between that and FB for android. Friendcaster was missing a bunch of posts that FB was showing. Not sure what the issues are. Why can't something just work the way it should?

Do you really think that was at all helpful? The iPad is not the end all and be all. I vastly prefer my Galaxy Tab because I wanted a full featured tablet computer, not a giant iPod Touch.
Getting back on topic, I agree that Facebook really screwed up their latest update. The pictures aren't handled right at all. It seems they've forced the app to behave like it's on a phone and are snubbing tablets all together.
However, if you don't mind viewing Facebook in portrait mode, it's fine. The photos are only screwed up when viewing in landscape mode. I hope they get their act together and fix it soon.
My friends have iPads and they complain about the same issues. The application does the same on both devices. Its just reformating the mobile page contents...

I pressed that button on the bottom left in the tray area that zooms in to apps that aren't built for tabs, and it zoomed and stretched and the FB app seems to function better, but it is all kind of grainy and pixelated.
Why faccebook who has so many users, can't update their app to use tab's screen size? After all, tablets become more and more popular and recent days.

Because whoever is responsible for developing their mobile apps is utterly incompetent. They have always sucked and Facebook really doesn't seem to care, probably because they want people to access the site via web browser so they can shove all their ads in their faces.
well, if you have a tablet, FB is perfectly usable in the browser. As far as the ads, would you rather pay to use FB instead?

So, I just downloaded this bad boy and been enjoying it so far. Definitely a lot better than Fring and Nimbuzz. If there was one thing I would change, it would be the option to reduce the size of the avatars and contacts names on the list. With such a large screen, we would be able to fit most, if not all, of our contacts without the need for scrolling.
Anyways, aside from that, my main concern is battery consumption. What are your thoughts so far? How much drain are you experiencing with it? How does it compare to other Multi-IM apps out there?
Let's get some convos going!
PS - BTW, here's the link for the BETA: http://www.trillian.im/learn/tour-android.html

Android Cloud to Device Messaging?
Does anyone know if it uses the new Android Cloud to Device Messaging? If so that should seriously improve its battery consumption over other IM apps.

Yea i downloaded a few hours ago and its running beautiful. i havent noticed anything when it comes to the battery YET, i will confirm that tomorrow. I also agree with you when it comes to the Avatar size, with my Evo they look way too big. other then that great APP!
Just reading the name "Trillian" makes my blood boil.
I'm enjoying it so far. I like the interface better than eBuddy, and it doesn't show a notification icon while it's running in the background. I'm really impressed with it just being a beta, and I'm looking forward to the updates.
I've been using it and it's the best IM app yet. I'm a bit concerned about battery life though. I receive messages while on background but they're not instant, meaning it looks like the app is polling the server, which would drain the battery as opposed to keeping a push connection.
Update: Okay now all of a sudden my messages are coming right away. Maybe it's push? Also, I've noticed under settings, you can have it send a notification to your push Gmail account when someone IMs you you select "Suspend" instead of "Sign off", which would save a lot of battery.

i loved trillian back in the day... when i actually IMed people. i may download this just to take a look. nice find.
I like it but I definitely think that the avatars are a bit too large on the Evo. Needs a skin to fix that...
Lets see what the battery impact is...
Video chat support?
Its so laggy and really irritating...it looks great but when updating apps it slows my phone up so bad! I look at google in disgust when they release crap like this...i know they are better than this, they need to show it.
If its just me that experiences these problems then don't flame me too bad...just stating an opinion. ;-)

i think it was definitely made with bigger screens in mind. theres no reason half my screen should be taken up by some green blob when i turn my phone sideways...very annoying.
also, why did people hate on the tabs?? it made it so much cleaner looking (the tabs when looking at the apps, the Top Paid/Top Free/Just in are still ok)

i think so too,
on my vibrant it looks alright, but that green format on top is just TOO DAMN BIG.
when on landscape it take more than half the screen.
I'd love to keep this, but the green thing is just too big, besides that nothing wrong, it was slow before, now its been way faster for me.

The market app is a huge improvement in aesthetics
What it does, however, is showcase Android failure IRT UI Accelleration.
It's laggy on a Galaxy S phone. I can only imagine what it would have been like on the Aria I had a while back, or on another low-spec phone.
It seriously runs like I'm trying to run Crysis on Max Settings with an Integrated Graphics card in a computer from 2006...
But the overall looks of the market, and the functionality are a huge improvement.
I do think they should have allowed us to choose out of like 3 or so color schemes, though. Green on white is not cute...

I like the new look, but the performance has been significantly worse. I expect we'll see improvements/changes as they roll out their promised web accessible android market.
The market is the one area I'd bet significant money on google continuing to improve quickly.
UI is bad, half of the screen is for the advertisement (or recommendation?)
and all the comment and description is packing together in one screen...
and what I really hate is the permission pages,
at least bigger font or bold for those words!

This really looks good for me but it loads slower when i open it and the old market is much easier to use.
For me the search and downloads on the new market are just way faster. And I also just love the UI. MAYBE its because I'm on froyo but the old market just gave me hang downloads it was just stuck & would not install. Cancelling and redownloading about 2 or 3 times actually got the app installed. I say go with whatever works for your phone.

I've been trying to find the perfect app for photos (particularly for my Flickr photostream) and what an abysmal lot of apps they are. The only one that seems like it might be good is FlickFolio but you have to pay to find out if it is. There is no free trial version or light version. I've tried nearly all of the free alternatives including Flickr's ofiicial app and that is terrible (Stuck in portrait mode on the tablet until you open a photo fullscreen and then it suddenly allows landscape mode. Exit fullscreen and it is stuck in portrait mode again). JustPics HD is sorta OK but has an issue where it makes the screen go full brightness when you show a photo fullscreen. Also it only shows sets instead of the photostream.
Don't even get me started on the inbuilt photo viewer. Complete garbage (why do I want to see every image stored in my books folder! Sheesh!).
This seems to be the way with a lot of apps on Android though. They seem to cater for either phone users or tablet users and rarely both. I don't have experience of Apple stuff but I am guessing things are a little more together over in the Apple apps camp.
EDIT: Sorry just having a bit of a moan.
Give Quick Pic a try. It's free and works nicely as a photo gallery for viewing local content on all my Android devices...you can choose which folders to include or exclude and the image rendering is very fast.
Id get flickfolio, really good app has all your stream and sets and so forth.
It stores it a set amount locally also so you can view while offline.
I've sworn by quickpic for a very long time but since the last few updates my albums sometimes take up to 90 seconds to load.

Hey - great Video.
I noticed something on 4.1.1 (and did not see it in your video). It took me for a spin-loop the first time: When downloading something fom the web (deafult browser) it does not save the file anymore to the internal (/mnt/sdcard/Downloads) - but instead to the external SD-card (I assume when one is present. I have not tried it without my externalSD yet.

One disappointing thing I have noticed in s note.
If you wish to have a custom background based upon an image it does not save that image as a template background for future sessions. You must go through the entire process each time. I prefer to write with a white pen on black lined paper. It would be nice if the background gallery would retain this option for me between sessions.
Also I do not see any way for us to custom design our own templates. Am I missing something? I can think of a number of layouts I would like which they do not offer by default.

If you save a blank note with the background you want, when you want to start a new note, open the orginal and "save as" before you start using it. The orginal "sort of" becomes a template. Kind of crude but faster than changing the background each time. I think the S-Note we have is going to be the S-Note we'll be living with for quite a while.

Yeah that's kind of what I have been doing. Surprising Samsung thought no one would want to create their own templates. Looks like a good opening for a popular aftermarket add-on.

Now that there's a Windows version of S-Note they'd be smart if they published a SDK like they have for the S-Pen in general. The fact that syncing S-Note's to a Samsung account has been added might mean something's planned for the future.

Frustrating indeed. Custom template seems so basic...

I agree guys, they should at least have a section in the settings or somewhere in the app to request features or leave feedback. Especially since its not in any of the app stores.
Also I just signed into Samsung Apps and they're giving $20 coupons for learning hub to all users, not that I've seen anything in learning hub that interests me :/

Yes the note 2's multi-window is compatible with Google apps like chrome, youtube, gmail and talk. Hopefully we will get those options soon. I think they also have some social apps working like facebook aswell.
