Motorola CLIQ :: Best IM App For AIM And Yahoo
Dec 8, 2009
I love the Cliq but I still miss my Sidekick too..... an android Sidekick with a touch screen is my dream phone.....
One reason is because of the specialized AIM and yahoo messenger apps built in with all kinds of useful features like individual buddy alert, add & delete buddies, organize groups, ignore lists etc....
I tried a few android IM apps like IM+ lite and ebuddy but haven't found anything outstanding yet.... I have trouble logging into yahoo, I keep getting a "rate limit exceeded" error and I have no idea what that means..... anyone else get this??
What IM app do you use most and why?

I was wondering if anyone was able to get their T-Mobile/Motorola Cliq to work on T-Mobile's basic data plan? They now have a specific Android data plan. I can't believe that they raised the data and unlimited text message plan to cost $45/mo. in total for Android phones! I'm using the $19.99 unlimited data/messaging plan now and would like to continue to use it. If anyone has successfully done this, please let me know how you did it.

I'm wondering what is the benefit of rooting a moto cliq. Will I be able to up grade to 2.2? A buddy of mine claims I could run other apps such as the sprint nascar app is this true?

I am using an unlocked Cliq on AT&T network. All my data works fine, but I'm having trouble with text messages. Normal texts come and go fine it seems, but I'm unable to send picture messages. I assume I'm also unable to receive picture messages, though I haven't specifically tested that. The bigger problem is a random text I keep getting. It comes from 11-216-116-11, and always says the same thing, "error invalid number please re-send using a valid 10 digit mobile number or valid short code." They always come in threes, and I always get them when I reboot the phone or sometimes they come randomly. Can anybody help with these issues?

I've had my cliq about a month now, and I love the phone! it's perfect for my needs, but im having alot of issues with it.
1: Sometimes my phone will sometimes just ignore a phone call. I'll receive it, it will ring for literally half a second, then the call will stop and will show as a missed call. This used to happen on my RAZR, too, so I think it's more a T-mobile issue than the phone.
2: My CLIQ keeps combining, moving, or changing my contacts. For example: A few weeks ago, I added my new bosses' phone number, labeled him as my boss, and then went about my business. Later that day, I was texting a friend, only to find out that her Phonenumber/information had meen stored under my new boss' name!
Another similar Issue, I added 2 people: A new friend's cell, My boss' cell, and my boss' office (all under seperate contacts). Then later that day, suddenly my friend's contact information is merged in with another friend's, and my mom's text messages are coming in under my boss's office information! (Needless to say, I was VERY confused to receive a text saying that he loved me)
3: Sometimes the phone is super slow/crashy. I get a lot of "this program is taking too long. would you like to close it?" Messages. I make use of advanced task Killer to kill off apps i'm not using from the background (Games, Facebook, ect) Why is my phone always so slow?

Way i have my CLIQ set up and some things that I have and to me, this is the ultimate set up (with very simple tweaking).
For starters, we aren't able to root yet (maybe in a month or so?) so I need my phone to run as light and fast as possible.
The MotoBlur is a great feature to attract people, but the service isn't full Twitter, FaceBook, or Myspace. I personally think you'll get a much better experience from getting these applications separately.
I have MotoBlur still signed in (just so it can sync my contacts, settings, etc.) however, I did sign out of my facebook and twitter accounts (I dont ever use mysapce) and that meant no need for those stock widgets (the status, happenings, messages). You know what that means? Not so much data interaction even when I'm not using my phone aka longer lasting battery!
So I put the widgets in the trash and made my homescreen how I want it. My phone moves faster and lasts longer, as well as shows the freed up memory with those cancellations (about 8 to 10 MB).
Now, in my opinion, the facebook apps arent needed. The web browser on this thing brings out the website beautifully, especially in the touch interface of facebook.
Twitter does too, but it wont move as fast. So I would suggest going into the marketplace for your twitter apps. Also, I will list below the applications I have as well as why, and the amount of space they take up. Remember, the more memory used, the slower your phone performs.
Ready? Here we go...
1. "AppManager": simply manages your 3rd party applications. It enables you to install from the SD, or uninstall with ease. Also, it allows you to move and uninstalled app to the SD card, just in case you may want to re-install later on. This keeps you from having to search through the marketplace again.
Memory used = 99kb
2. "Nice Battery": One of many great battery managers out in the market. I like this for its simple battery status as well as 3G/2G shortcuts (some people don't realize you can turn 3G off to save on battery). I didn't know how to turn it off and use 2G (EDGE) until I got this app. Also, one touch bluetooth, wifi, GPS, and cell location switches are used. The application says it will notify you if you overcharge or leave services on (both optional).
Memory used = 24kb
3. "Swift Twitter": Great, light, twitter app. All the capabilities of the apps you want. If you use twitter then you know what I mean, you know what you need, and this does it. Done.
Memory used = 460 kb
4. "Rings Extended": this application allows you to use custom ringtones with much ease. If you, like myself, have downloaded ringtones from a website directly to your phone then you notice you can use them as ringtones. However, if you turn your phone off then back on, that ringtone is gone out of the phone memory. This application allows it to save the tones and directly pick them from anywhere on the SD card. Great stuff. One of my favorite apps.
Memory used = 75kb
5. "OI File Manager": OI manages your files on your SD and in the phone with simplicity and ease. There are also some great apps that do the same job, but to me, some of them have really unnecessary functions and can become confusing after a few clicks. Need to move, copy, delete? There's an app for that (suck it iPhone!)
Memory used = 149 kb
6. "TasKiller": this is the app I speak about most. This is my tiny terminator. It kills any application running in the background that you may be unaware of. You can go into the application and choose which functions to kill (and by "kill" I mean stop it from running, not eliminate it from your phone, as I think many people misinterpret). My favorite feature of this lies in the one touch killswitch widget. I have it on the 5th screen so I dont touch it by accident. It knocks everything out and you can just hit the home button and start off running only the necessary apps. Significant speed difference people! Like I said you can kill one or all functions, it's up to you.
Memory used = 171 kb
7. "SMS Backup": I haven't noticed a way to save SMS on this phone which is fine. SMS Backup does something very simple and unique. It backs all of your SMS to your Gmail folks. It creates a folder, SMS (rename it if you'd like) and stores them all conveniently in your google mail account where you can go in and view, delete, lick the screen at, etc.) Pretty sweet if you ask me. Once again, keeping internal memory free. Yes!
Memory used = 661 kb
Those are some of the great functioning apps I have running. And my phone moves very fast! I have no lag. Occasionally the accelorometer may take a half second longer, but that's about it.

I have a rooted phone running the standard TMobile 1.4.8. I just checked for a system update and I selected to install the 1.5.2.2 update that was available OTA
However, my phone is now stuck at the Android Recovery screen because the error message is saying something about how it can't mount the T-Mobile.1.4.8.zip (not the full real filename) and installation was aborted. So when I choose to reboot the system and it loads up my phone... but only to have to self-reboot a few minutes later
pretty much, my phone is stuck in this endless loop of restarting because I choose to do the system update...

I bought a Motorola Cliq used (the one with the sliding keyboard, not the XT) and I was just planning on messing around with it for a while until I got service on it.However, when I boot it, it says "Please instert SIM card" and won't let me access anything but emergency calling.Is there a way around this? I plan on getting Tmobile service so I don't want to go through the hassle of rooting the phone (although I may if theres a good reason to).

I just rooted my Cliq, and I was wondering what some people's favorite custom ROM was to have. I am currently using Eclair2Cliq, and it is pretty good, but the lack of camera is kind of an issue for me. Anyone know any good ones?

Anything around? In particular, exactly what do those buttons do and are we to assume to use the DPAD in portrait mode the phone is turned 180 from what you'd expect "normal" portrait mode to be (see the pic, you'll see what I mean: http://ota.cc/az). I'm just guessing here but as a developer would like to know how to handle this. Do we need to code for a new orientation: keyboard closed portrait, keyboard open portrait and landscape?

So I spent a couple hours helping a friend root his CLIQ (which was WAY harder than rooting my Droid BTW). We had trouble finding a ROM that we liked. Are there any ROMs built on 2.1 for the CLIQ? Or is there a way to flash the stock 2.1 version onto his phone now? What we've done so far is:
1) Root the phone using the weird french orange update.zip
2) Flash the custom recovery.img
3) Installed a ROM that he's not entirely pleased with, I was expecting to be able to just install ROM Manager on his phone and pick out a ROM like I did on my Droid.

I've been testing our games on Motorola CLIQ (aka MB200) using DeviceAnywhere. While the OpenGL driver indicates support for VBO (GL_OES_vertex_buffer_object GL_ARB_vertex_buffer_object) calling any VBO function yields "called unimplemented OpenGL ES API". The weird thing is that sometimes it works for no apparent reason with no changes made to app besides debug prints.Is anyone using VBO on CLIQ succesfully?

I have a friend that recently bought a MOTOBLUR that touts it can track a lost phone through A-GPS. I figured there are some caveats to this such as the person that stole it must have it turned on, outside, and a clear line to the sky. Is there also a way to disable it?

i dont know if anyone has had this problem or not on a Motorola CLIQ, But When i Get A picture Message And I save it, it gives a little notification saying that it saved to the SD card, and everything seems fine and dandy. but when i Go to the picture gallery, the photo isn't there. -__- sometimes it will take forever, but it shows up eventually, and sometimes it doesnt even do that. This also happens sometimes when i save a picture from the web browser.

I have to do a hard reset (wipe) to install the new ROM. When Motorola comes out with their update, will we need to wipe the phones then too? Or perhaps that's what is taking so long for them to get the update out?

My CLIQ died a couple of days ago. I was charging it and I think it over heated because it was in the sun. To be safe don't charge it where it can be exposed to sunlight.

I'm new here, new to forums period, but I thought I would give this a shot. I have the tmobile cliq, have had it for about half the year now and I am quite pleased with it. Now on to my problem. I use Facebook a lot. Probably like 10 times a day at least just to look through status updates. I originally had my notifications set to email me on the phone when I'd get a notification, which was working fine, except for the whole yahoo takes 15 mins to refresh for new email checking thing. So i decided, well. Okay, I'll just set it to not email me, and text me instead. So I was getting text messages every time I got a friend request, wall post, comment, message, anything. i was really pleased with this because I'd be getting my notifications instantly. About a week ago this changed, I started to get less and less notifications via text.I would have to physically go into the app and then see that i had ten or so notifications, which should have all been texted to me. This is upsetting! Does anyone else have this problem, or know why this is happening? I actually remember this happening with my blackberry curve previously as well, after a while I wuold stop getting notifications, and I don't know if its the phone or if Tmobile just sucks. I tried unchecking all the notifications on facebook, saving the changes, then resetting my phone, turning it on, and re-checking the notifications sent via text option, for about an hour I was getting a few notifications as soon as I'd post something, but then poof it stopped again.Please let me know if you have this problem and have found a solution or have spoken to anyone in customer service at tmobile and theyve told you there are some kind of outtages.

My Cliq will just reboot at random times. It started doing this after the OTA update. It won't be a full reboot, either. It'll stop at the T-Mobile "Stick Together" screen, which requires me to do a battery pull. I was hoping battery pulls were a thing of the past for me after giving up BB's.
