[game] words with friends

Out now in the market, but has major issues right off the bat, notably no sound or notification settings. Sort of ridiculous to launch without those!

Hopefully they'll work out the kinks soon!

I don't see it in the market (searching the web version anyway)
Do you have a link?

Where is it, Could you supply a market link please?

Yeah it needs some work I think. I set up a new task under tasker to lower the media volume to 1 when I'm in the game and then restore it back to 4 when I exit.
To find it search under words with friends zynga

Notifications do work though.

Here this the market link for anyone that needs it
Words With Friends
Opps wrong link! Sorry! Should be the right one know!

I'm sure there will be updates soon. If someone wants to get a game going just add me. Diplomat2387

Mine has sound and notifications... Try turning up your volume while in the main menu.

I get notification bar updates pretty consistently. On CM7 nightlies on my G2.

anyone else having an issue where it isn't seeing all of your contacts? it is bringing them all up except like 4-5, and of course those are the people I want to play against.

I HATE the full screen pop up ads.
I hope they release a pay version soon.
Also...I'm getting a lot of fc's and it lags and delays when its changing turns.
Yes...buggy like crazy. I expected much more from Zynga. Especially since they have great work on the i-devices.

I'm guessing that it only does your e-mail contacts, because the same thing happened to me and it seemed to coincide with people that I've e-mailed instead of people that I have on my phone.

Agreed - need a non-buggy. Ad-free paid version pronto. I still can't believe there are no options for sound.

Works perfectly on my Captivate!

So can I add people and keep them saved? I dont see that option. I would hate to remember everyone's screen name!

Ok, spoke too soon... no notification sound. Only flaw I have run in to...

That's what I thought at first too but it sees some facebook only friends as well as some contacts that only have a phone number...pretty strange. The ones it doesn't see are actually some of my must frequent contacts too

Google Earth

Anyone able to install Google Earth on the sensation yet? Searched for it on market place and while it's there, once I chose it, it wont see my device and won't let me install it.
If I browse from my phone I can't even see it.
Does that mean its not supported or summit else ?

I have it on mine
Works just fine

Have you tried to open the market on your phone, then menu, settings and allow all applications? I got it and works fine... otherwise you can find it directly on the market place : https://market.android.com/details?id=com.google.earth&feature=search_result

Depends which region you are in and which market and if the regiuonal market supports that particular device/ROM. I cannot get it from the market here in Singapore on the Sensation but do have it on the Flyer.

Am I the only one who has problems with Google Earth?
I mean, using normal view is ok even with ground elevation, but if I switch on 3D buildings the app becomes slower than a snail on a turtle. Of course Sense restarts when I exit.
This sure isn't a cpu issue since this happens both with stock [email protected] and [email protected] Judging from the fact that the app itself eats up almost 100-200mb or RAM (with buldings off and on respectively) it sure is a memory issue. Anything else I could try?
At least I found an easy way to clear ram when I need it or when Sense starts restarting itself! I experienced multiple restarts a while ago, free ram was always below 80mb with nothing running. So I just opened the app, browsed around the map with buildings off, and then closed it through task manager.
I'm at 180-150mb now and it hasn't dropped since

Google earth is on play store and it works great

On MIUI - had it pushed to me last week. At first I thought it was a pita to use.
But... after I played with it a bit I think I like it a lot better than the old market.
The only thing I don't like is that it is painful if your not on wireless and have a slow connection.

I am not liking the update at all....

I just got the update today. It feels very cramped and unorganized.

got mine last night sort of reminds me of the new windows 8 ui
running stock also but rooted

It showed up on mine this afternoon. It seems to purposely designed to avoid free apps.

Everyone was so excited when this was first announced.
They took out the option to disable the "updates available" notification.
Also youtube and flash player don't show up under "my apps" in the market anymore. If I search them, they say installed and allow updating that way

Wrong again. I got the market update yesterday, checked My Apps and it shows Flash Player and You Tube.

For me, on my phone, clearing market cache and titanium market doctor/linking are not fixing it either.

Your flaming/personal attacks have been reported to the moderator
Normally bugs don't affect every user/configuration. They would be quickly/easily fixed if they did. Just because the bug doesn't affect you doesn't mean it doesn't exist.
:edit:
www.google.com/support/androidmarket/bin/static.py?hl=en&page=known_issues.cs
Its at the top of the list of market issues. The problem is definitely real

Alright guys let's play nicely ok.....

[Q] How Do We Get Facebook Push Notifications Working Properly?

Hi All,
First, I wanna say that you guys are so freakin awesome! I've been an xda lurker for a while, but figured it's time for me to join and interact with my fellow HTC Sensation-ers.
It'd be a good chance for me to contribute to these forums, as well as getting some help for my Sensation problems. Glad to be a part of you guys now
Question: Why doesn't Facebook for Android push notifications work on my Sensation 4G?
Background Info: Private Messages in Facebook get pushed, but regular notifications (e.g. wall posts, comments, likes) do not get pushed to my device.
Went into facebook settings, and everything it's at its default values (never touched a thing). Notifications are on.
Other information pertaining to situation: Background data is ON. Always-On mobile data has been tried on and off. Same results both ways.
Can you help a brotha out?
Thanks, guys! I look forward to being a part of your community.

I read that if you sign in on a blackberry it fixes that for android due to a permission that Facebook for bb gives. I don't know if its true but worth a try I guess

Hi fr0zenblood75,
Thanks for the response.
I also have read that before. I actually went far enough to borrow my friends Bold 9780 without him knowing
Alas, it did not work
Does every Sensation user have this issue? Or am I in the minority with this?
Also, I've restarted my phone, factory reset, uninstall and reinstall app....nothing works.

Facebook kinda sucks. You try another app like friendcaster?

It sucks that the Facebook app is garbage
I guess the developer has no incentive to get the app working properly for everybody, seeing that it's not ad-supported.

[Q] Chrome Beta problem.

Anyone know how to solve this problem? Obviously i cant reinstall all the roms and disable the extension that way.
Theyre all the same phone.

Have you tried going to your Google Play account (on a computer), looking at your devices, and removing the ones you no longer use? I know I had problems similar but not exactly like that, and removing unused devices helped. Along with renaming my actual one. Sorry if this didn't help, but it's my only guess

If you go to the Play Store website on a computer or in the browser of your device and log in. You just scroll down to bottom of the home page and lick on "My Orders & Devices".Then click on the Devices tap at the top of the page, unchecked the visibility, this will allow you to remove those un used devices.
