Why is Twitter slow on update?

Hi!
Is it just me or why is my Twitter not upated as soon as a new twitt is written.
I have made a small test and when i write something on my PC's twitter it takes a while before i can see it on my HD2. How come?

Get the TouchTwit app. It's like $2, and I've found it to be way more useful and prompt than the included Peep program. Not perfect, but better.

I've the same problem, in the settings I've set the update to every 15 minutes, but I have always update it manually. When I wake up in the morning I always see that the last update was around midnight and that update was done by myself.

Then we have a new problem/bug for them to fix....
My guess is that we're never going to see any fix for our problems now when there's new models out on the market that needs fixing as well But i read a thread about the U.S model have had a new ROM that fixed every problem the old one had... I'm glad for them and are hoping that the rest of the world can expect the same treatment.

Not any fix atm?

have no idea, think its something wrong with the program.... hope they update it someday

I am actually on the opposite of that opinion scale. I think swype does a great job at typing/predicting what I wanted.

What about the hardware locked 3 button issue
Did they fix the hardware locked 3 button issue in this official OTA?

Did they fix the isues with the stock music player? (problems with large music databases, no .m3u support)

I heard that if you are rooted you can still get OTA updates because you don't change the firmware. Is this true? Because I would like an OTA update to fix my GPS. and i'm simply rooted for wifi tethering.

I noticed everything in the first post plus.
1. Photo Viewer/Gallery shows newest photos first. The way it should have been!

GPS does appear to be fixed. Using GPS Test from the Market I was NEVER able to get more than 2 satellites in use (even though it would see 10 to 12). Right after I updated, I went outside and within 10 seconds GPS Test said it was using 9 out of 10!!!!
Used MyTracks to track me and walked around the campus...it wasn't a perfect track but it was WAY better than before. This was just a short test, but based on what GPS Test is telling me I have to think that it is indeed fixed.

That was my experience. I was rooted via the OCLF app without the lag fix installed. The update installed fine and when it was all done I was still root.

Cyanogenmod Nightly 116 has FM Radio Now

Just felt like sharing as i have been hoping for this for a while
now can't wait for them to finish 4G
Great Work Cyanogen

Thanks for sharing the news. I for one would love to see HDMI support over 4G, but both would be even better!

I'm still using CM6. I don't like running beta versions. I can't wait for 6.1!!!

well not perfect
it's a speaker icon rather then text (it wouldn't let me add text) but at least it's not chinese
also launcher icon is the HTC radio launcher icon
the apk is not signed nor do i plan on signing it since i made it for personal use
and my signing app was for windows and i just removed windos on my computer and replaced it with linux
install via adb or root explorer (remember to change permissions with explorer)

Thanks a lot. Hey what's that wallpaper if you dont mind.

Does the FM radio only work with headphones?

Been some work on the FM packages today on Github:
FM: New art from HaXzAmaTiC
FM: Fix notification string
FM: Enable Settings menu
FM: Add "about" that links to MIUI
FM: Fix case on strings to match Android convention
Merge "Added Italian translations:" into froyo

Sadly, yes. It also apparently needs Bluetooth to be on.

Can someone post a screenshot of the radio app? I'd like to try something.

Hey guys, I was thinking about contributing something to Cyanogen for a while now so I decided to make a new skin for the radio. It's super rough, details are wonky, buttons are missing, and everything is disproportionate or unaligned; but so far what do ya' think?

[FIX] X8 Gingerbread ROMs Issue: Music Player Splitting up Albums

All credits to Quinny899 of LG Optimus forums.
This is a fix for music player making the albums split up.
I am talking about these: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=16305193&postcount=891
"Album folder shows multiple albums with the same titles.
Songs on Albums containing different ALBUM ARTIST will separate them."
As you can see, I posted this issue on GingerDX way back long ago.
And then I found its solution.
To fix these issue, we need to add "libjumper.so" to our /system/lib (download on the attachment)
1• Download and unpack the zip file to the root of your sdcard.
2• Copy libjumper.so from your sdcard. Paste it to /system/lib
3• Fix the permissions to rw-r--r--
[V][V][O]
[V][O][O]
[V][O][O]
4• Reboot
5• Use Google Music to make this work.
And violah! Problem solved!
Tips:
• Use Mp3Tag for you to rearrange the tags on your mp3's. You can add album art to make it look good on ICE SCREAM SANDWICH Music App or any other music app.
• FOR BEST RESULTS AND CORRECT ID3TAG READING: USE GOOGLE MUSIC APP.
Clearing an app's cache:
• go to settings>applications>manage applications>all tab>look for the app you wish to clear>clear data>clear cache>reboot.
Easy app's data and cache clearing and uninstalling, use TITANIUM BACKUP (TBA)
Manual Uninstalling System Apps (App that can not be uninstalled using the normal uninstallation)
• use root explorer.
• go to system/app, set it to R/W
• all of the apps there are now deletable. you may choose which one will you delete. do not forget to back it up! (copy first the apk to sdcard, somewhere there, and proceed deleting)
• after deletion of apk, reboot to recovery and clear the dalvik-cache.

Note:
I am not responsible if this "fix" will actually "brick" your lovely device. You are responsible for doing backups before you proceed doing the above mentioned instructions. I posted this fix because it truly works if the instructions are followed correctly and has knowledge on how to get this things done.

This bug, in the CM7 roms
I think it is because of our DPI being different from the other devices DPI. In some apps like Active Launcher (tested on GingerCruzt, i don't know in other roms) we don't have that bug The active launcher was made for a device with same DPI i think, so the explanation is simple, that bug happens because some apps are built for different DPI
Sorry for my bad english

did you set the permissions?
AND Refresh your music app cache. or maybe uninstall and install your music app.

Thanks, I did wonder why it not properly shown.

After i did everything including the permission. It still split up my albums, however when i edited the "Album Artist" field in Mp3Tag, everything is where as it should be. So i guess its just the labeling.
