Facebook for Android is horrible, Friendcaster was okay...
Was using Stream , but would not load all the updates.
Anything?
Go to facebook.com with dolphin browser hd. It works much better then the app.
Did u try seesmic?

Didnt know there was one just updated and wow wayyyyyy faster
Try to update your app to the new one , i just did that & i love it , so much better & easier use & it does include everything in it much better than the choppy version on the iphone , well at least much faster .
Ever try tinfoil? Its basically the mobile site within a wrapper. It was designed to avoid the security problems with the official app and eliminate the battery hogging. Not bad if you don't mind the mobile site.

Hey guys, i thought id share an app i found on the market with you guys since i dont really hear much mention about it here. Its called "quickpic" by "alansw.com". It has immediately become my favorite photo/video viewer ever. Its extremely fast loading and excellent quality. Its probably what mediascape should have been. Anyways, in my opinion it has every other app of its kind beat hands down...go ahead, download it and try it out...i think youll be impressed to.

Thank you
Am liking it already, except for the non pre-thumbnail loading of images when browsing :-/ Although removing such a feature does speed up application launch, no doubt, I'd just prefer if it did

very good app thanks
I also love QuickPic. Fast and clean, incredible speed and features with full clarity at zoom, unlike Mediascape and Android Gallery.
JustPictures is also good with better UI but QuickPic is faster.
How to make it default on spb ?
Like when I click on spb gallery widget this has to open...how how how I say

WOW, this app is very very fast and has great quality.
Better than Gallery and Mediascape.
Thanks for this hint.

Hey guys I'm just wondering if Samsung ever released a fix for the stock browser lag.
I was thinking about getting the phone but this is holding me back.
Sent from my ADR6350 using XDA App
Given that you seem to have an issue with any Samsung phone you have, regardless of how big or small the problem is, you're probably better off just not getting it, because even if the "browser lag" is fixed, you'll just find another thing to complain about.
Next he will be complaining about the lack of an LED and saying BLN is not a valid replacement.

No its not the phone. I had it before and returned it for same reason. But after hearing about update i wanted to try it again. If i use the opera mobile browser its perfect with no checkerboard and touch is very responsive. On the stock browser if i scroll it'll respond 2 sec after

No offense, but that is pretty sad if that is the "only" thing causing you to pack up the Charge. What do you like about the stock browser so much that you don't use an alternative anyway? If the problem doesn't exist for the other browsers, why not just use one of them? I can think of a handful of others that are much better than the stock browser anyway.
Seems like you are just trying to bash Samsung for no particular reason.
No im not bashing. I had it once before. And got rid of it for that reason. But i heard the lag was fixed. That why I ASKED IN THIS POST ..... The reason i like the stock browser is it handles alot of webpages better.... Format wise. Its just a taste. Trust i would rather be on a 4g phone.... The thunderbolt was just to big and heavy for me. So i went with the charge. Not bashing... Not meant that way.
Sent from my ADR6350 using XDA App
Stock browser consumes extreme amounts of CPU.
Do not use
Not gonna bother reading the thread still gonna chime in through, the stock browser sucks but if you're asking about the glitch that was in all the DC reviews where flash froze the browser, then that has been fixed a long time ago.
Also, for browsers I'd suggest replacing stock with Dolphin HD(or Mini, uses less resources) or Opera.

like ceebee said I don't think its just Gummy, its a badly made app tbh... I gave up with the official app and looked for something else, Friendcaster and Tweetdeck work pretty nicely with facebook
+1, for such a widely used social networking site, you would think the app would be a bit more intuitive. They def need a major overhaul..
Is it the same for all platforms or just us?

Just for Android. Have you ever used the iPhone app? It's pretty smooth. Dunno why us Android users got stuck with the ****ty coders, or why they can't just port the iPhone version.

Sent from my SGH-T959V using XDA App
The lock screen is called MiLocker. And while I-launcher is paid, it is only 2 dollars. And thank you thcnme956, I like it when people share my videos. I also don't like apple, but I do have to say I love the beautiful UI they have. I was getting kinda board changing LP and ADW and I like to see a change on my phone so yeah. And while DX-home is free, it doesn't have the whole IOS look. Try Espiar Launcher, it is free, but you won't be able to do some of the things on iLuancher.
The latest version force closes every time I try the new change icon/app name feature. iLauncher now is far behind Espier Launcher in terms of stability and usability. I did pay for iLauncher to support the developer but the app is actually getting worse with every update.
Just install a miui rom ;-)
MIUI doesn't look like iOS to me and is available for selected phones only.
I'm on MIUI and espier launcher

I'm not a big fan of iOS, just testing exotic launchers
iLauncher got updated and the icon/text edit fc bug is fixed. Now I see another "small" bug - from time to time the phone freezes and none of the keys can bring the home screen. Reboot is the only cure. This dev is hopeless. Seems like he is trying to do something but he doesn't know exactly how. Every update has a MAJOR issue that makes the entire app unusable.
And in the menu there is "Restore hidden apps" option, but no "Hide apps" option. Interesting.
Testing continues... just for fun. :laugh:
You can also try espier launcher

Twicca is barebones, and customizable. Runs really smooth. Allows you to only install the add-ons you actually use.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using XDA App
I use http://goo.gl/d4gHQ
i've tried a few, but to me, tweetcaster is by far the best and easiest to use. Tons of features.
Tweetdark is pretty nice. Simple nice UI and works well.
I use the official app. It's cleaner than everything else. Plume is pretty good also, but I had an issue where the text box wasn't visible when my keyboard and predictive words popped up. The official app appropriately shifts everything up, so nothing disappears.
I use Plume but I like inline previews pics and Twitlonger
tweetdeck is better for me, it just keep it simple and has twitlonger and more
Can't figure out for the life of me how to view replies to a tweet in Twicca, does it not have this function? You can see what I mean by going to Twitter.com on a desktop PC and clicking any tweet, a nested area opens up showing replies.
Tweetcaster is my favorite because I can customize it.
