Re: Ebuddy is XMS is out now
 

Is there a Maemo 5 version available?

Re: Ebuddy is XMS is out now
 

cant wait to see its screenshots!!!

Re: Ebuddy is XMS is out now
 

WTF I think they cancelled maemo version
I subscribed to maemo beta on facebook for maemo but now the menu shows only meego blackberry iphone android symbian

Re: Ebuddy is XMS is out now
 

I 'm trying to find a friend in facebook who use ebuddy . It's turning around since 5 minutes and keep turning :)

Re: Ebuddy is XMS is out now
 

That's the problem I have at the moment...

Re: Ebuddy XMS is out now
 

Just tried to run in n900. "error while loading shared libraries: libQtFeedback.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory"

Re: Ebuddy XMS is out now
 

There is no maemo 5 version yet...

Re: Ebuddy XMS is out now
 

I don't understand why I must use ebuddy XMS ? It says that I can send free SMS . My freind can only receive my message when both of us connect to the Internet . So what is the different with other messagers like skype or yahoo ?
Yahoo or skype account or another messenger are running in background too.

Re: Ebuddy is XMS is out now
 

Same here, guess we all have too many friends to parse through.

Re: Ebuddy XMS is out now
 

just intalled it I let you know if it works ok

Re: Ebuddy XMS is out now
 

I don't think the push setting works.. I'm not getting messages when app was closed.. -and there is no notification in status bar and event screen.. still a lot of work to do i guess..
It is still a beta, so we could expect it

Re: Ebuddy XMS is out now
 

I have less than 100.

I cant seem to get it to work, i am uninstalling it and moving on...

Re: Ebuddy XMS is out now
 

it is useless if it does not support push!

Re: Ebuddy XMS is out now
 

it should support push, because I can find the option to enable or disable it under push settings in notification settings for the phone..
but i can't see it working

Re: Ebuddy XMS is out now
 

This is just like whatsapp basically, cross platform and fully push enabled meaning reduced battery consumption, and for people without credit and only unlimited internet this is perfect :)

Re: Ebuddy XMS is out now
 

No deal, I'll use my fb chat/wait for a whatsapp answer...

Re: Ebuddy XMS is out now
 

People its a beta, jesus, do you expect everything to start perfect... Stop whining and give some useful feedback to the developers so they can fix any bugs!

The more you moan and go "ohhh its useless" the less likely anything will get done as developers will just not bother.. It happened on the N900 and itll happen for the N9..

Re: Ebuddy XMS is out now
 

If an app doesn't let you load contacts and thats a main use of it, it's considered a failed app...

Re: Ebuddy XMS is out now
 

I think it would be better if people just got all there friends together to use ONE thing (facebook chat, skype, msn, yahoo) but that never seems like a possibility so the IM market is flooded!

Re: Ebuddy XMS is out now
 

I agree, my friends abroad (aus, turkey, czech republic, and all that) use facebook, as much as i dislike it, it works well.

Whatsapp is sorta eh, hit or miss as i have no real use for it, but texting wouldnt be that bad...

Re: Ebuddy XMS is out now
 

So because theres a bug in a first preview version of software, its a failed app? If thats the case then the N900 is a failed phone because its first version of software was lacking many features??

Thats nonsense, everything starts somewhere, its not exactly like Nokia make there software attractive for developers to spend resources on..

Re: Ebuddy XMS is out now
 

I know, I am just having fun being BigBadGuber! for a few minutes, is it working :D

Re: Ebuddy XMS is out now
 

I don't have the button find Phonebook freind anymore .
When I add a phone number to phone contact which is related with ebudy . this contact will automatically fill in ebuddy contact . But I also need that manual adding freind button .
Do I need to add phone number in international formal ( +33.....? )
Anyway , the push messages function seem to work very well .

Re: Ebuddy XMS is out now
 

LOL :P

Turning into a troll are ya, never thought id live to see this day :P

Re: Ebuddy XMS is out now
 

Actually the lack of adding contacts on there is annoying so I am turned off by the product and would rather not use it, as we've seen with ebuddy's Aleksandra on the meego forums, they aren't that great about getting back to us...

Re: Ebuddy XMS is out now
 

You cant add facebook contacts no, but you can add contacts via there phone numbers without a hitch, which is all u can do with Whatapps ect..

Re: Ebuddy XMS is out now
 

And I can't find the button to delete messages .

Re: Ebuddy XMS is out now
 

Go to the conversations page, then press the button on the bottom right and press "Delete Messages" then select the messages and press delete :)

Re: Ebuddy XMS is out now
 

youtube review please?

Re: Ebuddy XMS is out now
 

It doesn't let me add contacts at all, there is no option to even go through my phonebook to find contacts at all...

Re: Ebuddy XMS is out now
 

Just add a phone number which is related with ebuddy xms in phonebook and the contact will automatically appear in ebuddy xms contact

Re: Ebuddy XMS is out now
 

Doesn't work for me either.

Re: Ebuddy XMS is out now
 

does this work with the app closed? it receives the messages, and notifies you properly?

Re: Ebuddy XMS is out now
 

I signed up for the maillist at xms, and said I had a N900 and used maemo.
I received an email today saying that xms was available for my phone. I dowloaded and installed it succesfully, so I got excited!
but now its nowhere to be found among my applications. if there is no maemo version WHY can I install it? that's just cruel!

Re: Ebuddy XMS is out now
 

Shouldn't we keep this thread going here???

That's where the eBuddy contact/support is...
Not that she's been terribly responsive thus far.
But now that the app's out she'll probably be better.

Re: Ebuddy XMS is out now
 

The Qn was asked in the thread I linked to above (N900 support?), but she never answered.
I suspect N9 (naturally) will be the priority, I doubt N900 will ever be on the radar, but you never know.
One of the posters in that thread seemed to think it was....

Re: Ebuddy XMS is out now
 

That iOS cloth background will get them some issues to worry about :P

Seems to work fine for me, although I did have an account + my contacts on it from my iPod

Re: Ebuddy XMS is out now
 

Push notifications work fine when the app is closed, get a blue flag icon on the status bar and a notification on the notifications part of the events page :)

Also friends are automatically updated :)
