Yahoo! Go for WVGA - beta

Hey,
Surprisingly yesterday when being redirected to the yahoo Go page on my Xperia I got an option to sign up for the Yahoo! GO beta (which I am assuming is WVGA) since it will be supported on the X1.
Though the sign up page mentioned that it might take some 'weeks' to get the software because of high number of beta testers.
I was wondering, does anyone on the forum already have a copy of the wvga yahoo go app??
Regards,
Nabeel

Is Yahoo GO available yet? All-in-one messaging programs always suck, and I want Yahoo GO.
Is it here yet?

I have been using IM+ all-in-one instant messaging app, and I find it all right. And yea, I'm looking forward to Yahoo Go as well.

palringo is my choice, maybe im too lazy to switch?

is your phone autocorrecting some of your typing because it thinks youve spelled it incorrectly?

Well only if it tries to correct my password, because I've checked and double checked my account info. Find it very strange.
A thought might be that I have set Facebook to only use https and who knows what Timescape uses!

Oops sorry. Made a mistake

Just wanted to update and sat I got it working. Had to use the build in keyboard. Quite odd, but whatever works, right!

Q
is your timescape sync picture from facebook to phonebook ?

No that's from the account settings. But it's not to good at finding contacts by itself, so you sometimes need to click and hold on a contact and you'll get the option to join contacts.

You mean xperia arc just can sync picture from facebook app with low-res ?

Seeing you mention the bloatware
Is there an updated guide for bloatware removal. Most of the guides that I have found have either a safe to remove, unknown, or not safe. Also, alot of the files are either no longer there, not listed at all, or the names have changed drastically or status has changed( unsafe to safe mostly)

The sns*.apks may have been removed from your ROM.
If that is the case, you won't be able to add a Facebook account in the accounts and sync settings.

[Q] People app missing all facebook contacts

Hello, how are you?
I have a Samsung Galaxy Nexus GSM stock (yakuj) with Android 4.0.4 and Facebook app 1.9.0.
I added my facebook account and have the facebook app installed. I also checked for syncing contacts under Settings-> account & sync.
However, none of my facebook contacts show up at People app.
I tried deleting the account and re-adding it but I still have nothing.
I also tried to re-install facebook app, and still nothing.
Besides, I also tried to show only the facebook contacts changing the settings at People app->contacts to display->customize, but It didn't work either.
Furthermore, I tried to follow the steps on the link bellow, and It didn't work:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=928393
Please, Does someone have any clue of what can be happening?
I can't figure out why my facebook contacts don't shows at People app.
I appreciate any help you can give me,
Roger

because facebook sync is broken in stock android.

Native Facebook contact syncing has been left out of Android since Gingerbread 2.3.4!
Roman from AOKP made a "fix" to get Facebook contacts to sync but ...
"Unfortunately, the "fix" breaks Picasa upload functionality and exposes all of your contact data insecurely. Facebook and Twitter need to update their applications to use the correct API introduced in IceCream Sandwich." - Peter Alfonso
This is why some dev's like Pete and Team Douche (Cyanogenmod) have not incorporated this "fix".
If you want your Facebook Contacts synced I would suggest buying HaxSync from the Play Store! That's what I did ... Cheers

Here is your solution: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.mots.haxsync&hl=en
It's not free, but it's well worth it. Works flawlessly and is under constant development.

Hello,
thanks a lot for helping.
Is HaxSync app the only workaround for this issue?
BTW, Is this an issue with Android 4.0.4, or Is this an issue of facebook app?
I mean, In order to fix this issue, Is the facebook app the one needed to be fixed(updated to use ICS API)?or Will we have to wait for a fix in the next ICS OTA?
I appreciate any help you can give me

I wouldn't think Facebook will correct this issue if for nothing else other than spite. Your best option is i believe HaxSync its only 99 cents (less than you pay for a coffee) and it securely syncs your contacts, calender events including birthdays and downloads hi-res images of your contacts too. It adds more functionality than the old native sync.

Again, this is a facebook issue. Your easiest solution is to pony up 99 cents as I originally recommended, it'll give you everything you want and then some, I assure you.
Yes the other solution works, but it comes with other issues and requires a bit more effort. You can decide what's more worthwhile to you - spend the time and effort for a broken solution or spend 99 cents to get everything you need easily.

Actually..the API is there since 4.0.3. Facebook just doesn't care enough to implement it.
Team BAMF doesn't implement it either. Security and stability > feature.

no problem i do what i can
yes basically its the facebook app because its not doing it right ... there was some sort of back story there about fb not wanting to work with google on the issue because fb wanted to take all of the google (gmail) contacts information or something like that.
I think the facebook sync solution you have found there is how Roman from AOKP came up with the "fix" or workaround. That information is more for developers than end users like yourself and obviously is not an easy solution. Again this is not secure syncing either which is why a few respected developers refuse to implement it.
imo HaxSync is the way to go ... fb contacts, hi res images with time line and calendar sync so it offers more than the "fix"

i think facebook doesn't implement it out of spite because of the google plus is now a competing social network (and a better one if only people would adopt it)

FB sync doesn't work yet =/
(There is an option to sync fb at settings->account & sync, but It doesn't do anything)
BTW, have someone tried Friendcaster?
Thanks

I used to use Friendcaster to sync before I got HaxSync but it used to sync really low rez pictures that looked horrible. Don't know if they have fixed this issue since then but you could just try it out. The app is free anyway.

theres an easy solution...just copy contacts provider from the aokp that worked and that fixes fb sync since the hack is incorporated in it

What are your steps you did? Once you download the app you don't even need to open it. As long as you are logged into Facebook (via the official Facebook app) just go to your Accounts in Settings, and press Add account, and then select UberSync. It will then automatically sign in to Facebook, and start syncing after about two minutes. I've never once clicked on the actual app in the app drawer. Give it about ten minutes, and then go to your contacts, and you will see what it did. You may have to "join" some contacts from Facebook to your own manual adds you did, but it works really well when it's all done.

There is no substitute for sync.me on the market. No other app (like ubersync) gives u that much choices and handling of your contacts
Guess we gotta wait for them to fix it . I already read on their website that the problem is from their side and they are working on it

I also WAS a Sync.me user, but I have bad news for us...
For what I read in their official facebook page (wich I can't link here 'cause I have less than 10 posts -.-') they decided to "divide" Sync.me into 2 different apps, one for sync and other for birthdays.
So they launched "Sync.me Birthdays" in the iPhone App Store and now they launched the new Sync.me app for iPhone too and they promise that an Android version will be available soon.
And here are the bad news:
