[App] Trillian beta for android

I searched this forum and did not find anything, so thought I'll create one.
Trillian for Android is out.
Best Android IM client I've used so far.
Nice features in short:
- chat tabs
- bubble conversation interface
- your account details are grouped and saved as an 'astra' account on their site.
- chats sent while you are offline are emailed to you

i've been using it and it's been great!

It force closes a lot when I multi-task back to it. I'm sending logs so I'm sure all the kinks will get worked out by the time it hits the market.

Yupe, look great love it
Love the interface also.

Looks promising, but there is no option to add a MSN messenger account.

I get the FC error when I switch back to it too.
Another think I hope they don't do is add ads to the free version.

it cannot, only IM for now.
Heres the FC error:
E/AndroidRuntime(22677): Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException
E/AndroidRuntime(22677): at com.ceruleanstudios.trillian.android.ContactListTreeView$MyExpandableListAdapter.getGroupCount(ContactListTreeView.java:758)

I noticed that I don't get a notification (sound nor LED) after receiving a message, and I have to open the app then the notification will appear.
Anyone with the same problem?

I didn't have that problem, but I did have the force close issue.
Also I don't think it yet handles links... tried tapping on a link for half a minute, nothing happened

does the send IM via e-mail when in suspend work for you?
i am shown as online in the messenger, but i dont get the email with a new IM

App doesn't stay logged on...the iphone version even did well with push and without...Uninstalled epic fail trillian

Don't get your pannies in a bunch, it's a BETA.
Anyway, is there a way to remove IM to E-mail?

Tried the app today for a min, it is plain awful.

I can't even use it because I'm getting "wrong password" after registering and trying to login

no major issues on my end but it doesn't place nice with my messengers on my comp signing me out of FB and it not only wipes my WLM display pic(eBuddy also does this) but resets my theme
on the plus side it tells me when i contact is idle in WLM, something eBuddy doesn't do

and it changes your nickname for example my normal nickname qvert is too short for trillian account, if i changed it to something like qvert2 than it changes my nickname in my messenger networks to qvert2 too

It was a disappointment. I also uninstalled for the following reasons:
1) The push function to mail wasn't working on suspend mode.
2) The LED notification does not work.
3) fails to show notification for instant messages, have to open the app in order for notification to occur.
I know it's only beta but it just could not fulfill the basics of a IM chat client at the moment.

[APP] Cloud to SMS beta

Cloud to SMS allows you to send messages from your browser, through your phone using the Android notification system (C2DM). The purpose of the app is to allow users (You!) to send SMS messages using their phones existing carrier account without having to touch their phone.
Requires Froyo (Android 2.2) or higher.

Beta of "free" version released to marketplace.
Allows you to send up to 7 messages a day, premium version beta coming in a few days with a release in about 2 weeks.
Grab the beta of the Chrome extension here: http://www.cloudtosms.com/files/cloudtosms-chrome-extension.crx
Feedback welcome

In case anyone is interested, this app is now in Beta and I will be releasing it to market soon.
Send and receive SMS messages from the website
All messages secured by SSL both ways
I will be making a Chrome plugin very soon so you don't need to browse to the website to send/receive.
http://www.cloudtosms.com/?page_id=15

This app has a ton of potential. Can't wait for that Chrome extension!

I could see this having a ton of uses. One being it could grab an entire group of contacts from your Gmail account (or export them from what ever place you prefer to store your contacts and import them directly to the online app -though kind of a concern issue for obvious security reasons). Then you could send bulk Txt's much easier than directly on the phone. It could even schedule them, etc. I frequently have to send out mass texts to different groups and it could save me a lot of time every week if it had those functions.
Feel free to PM me for brainstorming!

Thanks for the feedback.
Will definitely add "Groups" in a future version of the webapp.
I don't store any contacts on the server, its all handled by javascript on the client side (e.g. by your computers browser). If there are other contact sources that work like the Google Contacts API (e.g. allow un-cached display of contacts) I could attempt to add support.
Scheduling is an interesting idea and something to consider in future versions.
One thing to keep in mind is Google limit the amount of messages sent through C2DM, so bulk messages would only work to a certain point.

wonderful app, tons of potential. works perfectly on my spica running cm6.1 rc1. thanks rolf!

Very cool concept. I'll try it out shortly.

First release of the chrome extension is good to go. I haven't tested it on any PC's aside from my own so it might not work, please advise if you try it out:
http://www.cloudtosms.com/?page_id=15

nice man, keep it up

This is an awesome app!!! Runs fast and smooth on my Desire with Teppics pre-rooted stock rom.
Two things:
I would like to able to prevent the notification sound when sending messages. I thought I could turn it off in Settings but either I cannot understand the meaning of "Use notification sound" or the feature doesn't work ;-)
Also an option to prevent the status bar notification icon and notification entry would be nice.
Otherwise awesome!
[edit]
Oh! One more thing: The web page (https://cloudtosms.appspot.com/) seems to hang when fetching contacts (I have about 250 contacts)...
And of course Google Apps support would also be nice so that I don't have to manually export/import my contacts between two accounts.
[/edit]
./kroogar

AWESOME!
This is what I have been waiting for forever!
Chrome extension is awesome, would love a firefox one, too.
Even better would be a standalone app.
Also push ALL notifications from phone back to the cloud.
You would be truly amazing.

Cannot load page
This morning (as of right now) I cannot load the page https://cloudtosms.appspot.com in either Chrome or Firefox. It seems there is a piece of JavaScript that will not load. The page hangs until the browser complains. It's preventing me from logging in :-(
I'm using Chrome 9.0.570.0 and Firefox 3.6.12.
[edit]
Actually managed to get to the log in page by pressing the Sign in link as soon as the page starts loading. After log in the page still hangs trying to fetch my contacts...
[/edit]

I think this might be the pubnub servers being slow. I might cache their Javascript to fix this problem. Can you confirm if the problem is still occuring?
EDIT: this should be fixed now

the feedbak for this app is really good, but I still don't get what is this for. Maybe a short explanation would be a good idea.
Thanks!

Hmm... now nine hours after my attempt this morning I have conquered the snow and reached home - unfortunately just to realize the problem still occurs :-( In Chrome I'm already signed in and it just sits there fetching contacts. In Firefox I'm not signed in and problem is the same as described earlier.
I have not at any point been able to see my contacts on the web page. They do seem to be loaded just fine in the Chrome extension though...

Maybe you like a another icon? Today i created one... maybe you like it..
Let me know what you think about it

Hrm... Darn Javascript.
If you press ctrl+shift+j in Chrome or Forefox it will show the Javascript error console, does this show you any errors?
Does it work if you browse incognito?
If you want to email me kroogar to get instant responses please feel free (my username at gmail.com)
Sinas: it is a much cleaner icon, I will try it in the build and see how it looks

Installed and working with minimal fuss. Very impressed (currently using sms2pc)
However, despite refreshing the chrome tab only 361 of my 500+ contacts appear. Same happens through the webpage. Happy to help test larger contact lists if it helps
Super job so far.

Major Exchange headache -- no contacts, calendar

We have a new Xoom WiFi, and would love the thing except for one major problem. When we connect our main Exchange account, it spins forever but downloads nothing -- no emails, contacts or appointments.
If we add an account that's email only, the emails come down and everything works as expected for that account. If I move contacts into one of these secondary accounts, then they no longer work.
We have similar issues with Touchdown for Tablets, except there no mail appears in the inbox -- only subfolders. Plus only today appears in the Calendar. Appears to be a Touchdown bug -- bad one.
We really, really want to keep this tablet. But it's going back unless we can actually access and use our email, contacts and calendar.
It's an Exchange 2010 server, and we're accessing it via https over ActiveSync. Any assistance is most appreciated.

Can you connect any other android devices to it?

Yes -- no problem connecting other devices
We have two Droid Xs and a Droid Incredible attached to the server. No issues.

What are you talking about? I connected to my company's Exchange account with no problem, and I was able to get to the company contacts and see my calendar on the XOOM.
Here is a trick that I found out:
When you add your login account enter in the format "\my_login_id". Notice that I being the login with a backslash "\". DO NOT enter your domain name.

/your_id
That's what I did. It apparently has something to do with the security settings back on the server. If anyone has any experience there, it might help us troubleshoot...

Your Exchange administrator might be enforcing security settings (Required PIN, remote wipe, etc). Generally you are supposed to get a warning from android stating it is being required and asking you if you want to enable it. Any chance you said no to this?
One of my friends had almost the same issue and for some reason his phone wasnt acknowledging the requirements. He had to set them manually and then he got his contacts and emails.
not sure it's your problem but it might help

That sounds more than reasonable. I did hit "OK" when asked to allow Exchange to set the security parameters on the phone, so I know it was being asked to adhere to some standard.
What's the process for the manual setup you alluded to in your post? I'd like to give that a try.
Thx...

Also check how many items you have in your mailbox. If you have over 20,000 you may have some trouble syncing.
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA Premium App

With the zoom it does not seem to use the "standard" MS Active Sync which allows just using your address and password then it auto configures based on settings in exchange.
When setting up my exchange accounts I entered the email address and password. When it went to auto detect I have to click cancel. Then go back and put the domain in front of the user name then add the address for the owa site (owa.server.xxx)
Do you have outlook? Go into the account settings then select your account then change. Look for the More settings button > then connection > Exchange Proxy Settings this will give you some idea what you need it it is configured.
So:
Domain\username
Password
server (owa address)
check use SSL

Please don't take this the wrong way.. You should call your company/schools helpdesk or Exchange admin. The native email client is pretty easy to setup, from your description it sounds like you've got a local (device side) configuration problem.
When you are setting up the client, are you:
1. Entering the correct domain\username - if you are having problems try not adding domain\ . Instead enter your username with your company's FQDN (example: [email protected]) please note this is not the sane thing as your email address.
2. When entering your server info, you do not add the "xttps://" just enter the URL (example: Wrong - xttps://owa.xxxxx.. - Correct - owa.xxxxx.)
3. If your company is more than likely enforcing the EAS policy - if so once you successful configure the client you will be prompted to set a password/pin (if they set that as a rule) so if you get that far you should be golden....
Hope you get it working...
Cheers,
Hatxtrick

I haven't seen a responce from OP so I thought I'd pop a few screenshots off, as a walk through.
jldeitch one other possibility: Have you ever had a EAS type of device activated on your exchange server? i.e WMD (Windows Mobile Device), Palm, etc… any smart phone other than a *blackberry
(Please see * in next comment)
If you haven’t your exchange admin may need to enable that feature on your exchange account depending on how your company has setup account provisioning. .( Also if you carry a Blackberry for your organization you would still need to have the exchange active sync featured on your account. BB’s have their own server/account outside of exchange .
Also your company’s EAS policy may be setup to require encryption on the device & to not allow non-provisionable devices. (I’m not sure if the Xoom will pass the device encryption requirements, if not then the second part of the rule would block you from completing the activation.)
I’m an Exchange/BlackBerry admin for my company, we had to tweak the hell out of our policy to get the wide range of devices & Android OS levels to work with our EAS Policy. A good example is the OG Droid, once a EAS policy w/ a mandatory password (PIN) rule is turned on the devices would stop communicating with Exchange due to the inability to enter a PIN only a pattern screen lock, if we set our policy to allow non-provisionable devices, the user could partially active their device but most had trouble with features such as PUSH, calendars & contacts.
I’ve added a couple of screenshots of our ‘pretty generic’ EAS policy, to help you understand.

Here r the settings for the second account

You have not set it as a premium account when you added it to the device.
Delete that second account & add it once again but this time remember to tick on the field / option which says set it up as a premium account. This option is there where you input the email ID & password, actually it's just below the password field.
Hope this helps.

Thanks alot.
It I help and now I am getting the sync option. But the issue is that the push mail isn't working. Is it something to do with the pop settings?
Also the email sent from both the accounts show the email as display name and not my actual name (first name last name') as is the case when I send through Web. So it will be a great help if u help me solve that too..

[APP][3.0+]: FloatMail: Floatification extension for email

Description
Receive email from within any app, without pausing the app, including fullscreen apps.
This is an extension for the app Floatifications published by Rob J. The floatifications app *must* be installed prior to installing FloatMail:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=robj.floating.notifications
The app supports:
Display sender name and subject
Display full email body
Commands:
Open: Opens the email app inbox
Delete: Deletes the Floatification
Reply: Reply from within the email app
Quick Reply: Reply from within the Floatification
Delete All: Deletes all recent FloatMail Floatifications
Delete Message: Deletes the email message from the remote server
Mark as Read: Marks the message as read on the remote server
The app works with nearly all email accounts by supporting the following protocols: IMAP, IMAP-IDLE (Push Mail), POP3 & Exchange via EWS or IMAP.
Note: There is no dependencies on K9, Gmail APIs or anything else so your free to use any email app that you want in conjunction with FloatMail.
Using this extension means you can do away with the status bar if you wish, disable your normal email notifications, and still be notified within FN for Email.
Questions & Improvements please contact: 'support' [at] 'maxlabmobile.com'
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.maxlabmobile.floatmail

This video illustrates the concept of Floatifications in a similar app for SMS:

Very promising.
Since most of us will have either the default mailer, gmail, K9 or some other popular mailer up, the ability to import accounts setting would be very highly appreciated. Kind of a pain to enter this stuff once more from the phone's keyboards, even the best of them

Thanks Dovid. I have already implemented export/import with an encrypted export file. When you tap on the export-file it will automatically associate the file with FloatMail and populate the settings. I'll expose that functionality soon in version 1.4 or 1.5. Thanks for the suggestion. Cheers, Glen.

Quite nice. Will try the 1.4 or 1.5 app once posted ( and I have decided whether or not to keep the 4.4.3 Omnrom).
I take it one still needs the original emailers around to issue the notification? Or once, imported, can they be removed if this be one's preferred mailer? Read the Play description so seems this can work on its own. Actually I only use K9 so would probably keep it around.
Exchange support puts this over the rest!

Sorry I should have been clearer before. The export/import feature will backup/restore the FloatMail settings which is ideal when:
1. You want to reset the device
2. You want the same settings, but on another device
But it won't automatically configure the app based on your K9/Gmail settings.
The app connects directly to your IMAP server. In the case of Gmail, it would connect to the server using IMAP-IDLE/Push-mail. When a message is sent, it will automatically appear in a floatification within a few seconds.
It is capable of opening the inbox or compose screen of any email app that you want. [You just need to choose the app from a list on the account setup screen] However, since it shows the full message and you can do quick replies hopefully users will not need to open their email apps so often.
Cheers,
Glen

Awesome work mate, always nice to see a new extension like this

It's a nice idea but i have a problem.
I can see in the log that it finds the new mail i just recived but it doesn't tell me.
I just sent the log via email to [email protected]
If you need anything more just tell me.
Thanks.

Thanks Guys
stavrinho: Sorry, I can't find your email. It is maxlabmobile.com ['L' after 'max']. I'm sure we can solve that issue. Cheers.

Yes because it was written to work with any email not only GMail. But I understand your concerns.

Hmmmm
This is work with any email account (so is set up by itself)? Have not seen this yet, maybe work a look.
EDIT:
I see I had commented on this is the distant past. For some reason, I had not gotten extensions really working.
So trying to set it up: Need to support two-stage auth. Typing in those Google "app-specific" passwords is impossible.
