View 8 RepliesFirst, hi, new Hero owner (1 week now) and I love it. I've been reading the forums here since I got it and I have to say, you guys are very helpful.I'm an avid facebook user and I've been breaking in to twitter recently. Currently I'm using facebook for android and i tweet (read the peep warning thread) and was wondering if there were any better apps for these?Also, since so many sense UI widgets seem to have troubles with taking too much memory, I wondered if I should find a different mp3 player than the stock music player/widget?

I am trying to figure out all the ins and outs for the device but anyway if you do
have you noticed the contact id for certain people is not the right person?
For instance my ex-bf Chris contact id is another chris that i am friends with on facebook...
Another Matt's picture is the id of my other friend matt
I only see this with people in my contacts that have the same first name as a facebook friend people like Bridget are fine.

I swear I've read about people setting theres to only do it every couple of hours or so to help with battery life but I can't find anything for this. The only thing I've managed to find is an option to set it to only sync over WiFi. Forgive me if this has already been asked but I couldn't find any answers to this dilemma.Oh and also, what exactly is considered "Background Data"? There's an option for enabling/disabling it and I wondered what the term encompasses.

I know that most of these applications have Java libraries or functionalities exposed as REST based WebServices. But since there is a lot of variety and disparity in the ways that these libaries are written or service that can be consumed, is there any single, integrated service or middleware component that I can use to provide a unified interface in my mobile application?
I saw a commercial today for the Xperia X10 on Rogers, which said it included "Unlimited Social Networking". Just wondering if anyone, like me bought the phone in April, and knows if this is included in their Voice + Data plan? I'm currently on the $50 Voice and Data, and http://www.rogers.com/web/content/social-networking shows that its pre-bundled in the 3 plans.
Or if this is something we have to contact them to add, or worse, something we missed out on because we bought the phone too early for their liking.
As I promised to review Android Apps for Social networking, I completed it for you to decide to add 6 coll Android Apps on your Android phone for Social Networking.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have just received my D2-G this evening. I upgraded from my HTC Droid Eris and man is it an upgrade! I used appbrain to move all of my apps and stuff and the D2-G is fast as heck compared to the Eris. My only problem is that I am getting overwhelmed by all of the CRAP that comes on the phone. I know it has more to offer than my previous but GEEZE is moto and vzw trying to kill me with all of this stuff on the phone? So, I have checked out the posts over the past couple of days on the D2 and I am guessing that there isn't much difference between the D2 and the D2-G aside from the obvious. Now I am just wanting to simplify the phone and get it down to the goods and avoid the bads. I was hoping out the gate to be able to watch netflix on the phone but that doesn't seem to be the case at all (I travel a lot and I also sit and wait a lot). So, maybe someone can point me in the right direction to explain all that this new beast can do and what I need not worry about (as a simple guy who isn't trying to OC the phone and take over the world).

So we all know that the x10 has crap volume, but i have a question, mainly for powerkiter because he was the one who stated that with root his volume went up. How do you increase the volume? i would like to reap these rewards too.

How do I go about removing it? It's not in "my downloads" in the market. I guess because I didn't download it through the market. any ideas?
So I've tried to do a search on this, but I've only been able to find either threads from 2009 way before the 2.1 update, or threads that did not completely answer my question.

View 6 Replies View RelatedOn my phone I have the Facebook app downloaded from the market. I also noticed that the phone comes bookmarked with Facebook.
So here is my question, under Menu>Settings>Social Network> Facebook appears there. I have that set to update every 12 hours.
HOWEVER, my actual Facebook App is set to update every 2 hours.
So... does the settings under Menu>Settings>Social Network>Facebook control my facebook app or just the bookmark that comes pre-installed on the phone?
I am trying to save battery life, and I noticed that the settings under Menu>Settings>Social Network>Facebook were set to update every hour, but I had the settings under the downloaded app to update every two hours. My goal is to have only one facebook medium updating so I don't drain battery life!
