[APP REQUEST] Sprint Family Locator

I'm wondering if it's possible to make a native app (as in an apk) that lets me use Sprint Family Locator as a native app. Anyone?

What's wrong with free Google latitude? I love it.

Good luck with your search though, let us know what you figure out.

I thought they said they have not got it approved yet from Apple. That is why they probably started iPhone first, the approval process could take months.

tell us about what you'd like to see in a future version.
I'll pass your suggestion on to the Yahoo! Messenger Product Team and
they will put it under consideration for a future release. (Our

Wow nowhere in that response does it say that it is coming at all, just says they are continuing to develop, that kinda sucks since we know it is on the myTouch HD, well, I had messenger installed and on auto update but after reading that letter I guess I am gonna uninstall and free up some space It just drives me nuts that we have one of the most capable handsets on the market and we can't get a damn phone to comp. video chat app, that is like the LAST thing that I want my Evo to do, C'est la vie

[Q] Viber with BM MIUI

Having launch problem at the moment, any help?

Hi,
This is a member of Viber's development team.
Can you please elaborate more on your issue?
What device you have?
Viber only partially supports MIUI but we might be able to help anyway.
Thanks,
Viber Team

When Viber will be supported in ICS ?

I'm currently running on an ICS MIUI.
I did launch the application and nothing is shown, but I believe the background service is still running as I could get viber contact list.

it is viber supposed to work on ICS?? or not yet?

Ahh... you're running MIUI on ICS.
We are aware of the problems with Viber on ICS, and working this very moment to fix it.
As you know, many fundamental changes were made on ICS (not only visual improvements). In order to adapt Viber to ICS the best way and make sure we don't release a half-baked app, we need some time for developing and testing.
We estimate that the release would take up to several weeks, but we wouldn't want to guarantee a specific release date at this stage.
Once we have any news we'll keep you posted - we apologize for the temporary inconvenience.

this makes me feel like reading a newspaper lol

How so?

Are you a politician ?

We're a company.
As much as we would have loved to develop everything as soon as possible and throw promises in the air, we also have to be realistic and a little restricted with guaranteeing things to our users, because we don't want them to be disappointed, nor do we want to not live up to our promises and estimates
It has nothing to do with being a politician... just credibility of a business

Ok.. So here's my question. I emailed your team and submitted a trouble ticket, as subsequently advised after my initial email, regarding the incompatibility with ICS. That was over six weeks ago. In fact the sdk for Android 4.0 has been out even longer than that! So what's the delay? Is there only one coder working on this? Why have Tango, Skype, Fring, et al, been able to release compatible apps before the Galaxy Nexus was even released.. Yet Viber can't..?
I'm asking a serious question, primarily because of how frustrating it is. I'm now stuck using an inferior product (Tango) as a stop-gap, and all I want is Viber to work with ICS already!

First, I want to agree with this guy, but then again viber does treat their product with care and quality work so that's why they are that much better. I'm holding off on Ics just because of viber so I understand your frustration. I don't want to use tango cuz it's not great.
2 things.
1) try using fring. It's much better than tango. Tango isn't good quality.
2) thank you for making a great app viber. We are anxious because we are waiting on you. I can only ask that you guys hurry haha.

Thanks for the suggestions. Fring is out of the question for me, as I choose not to support Israeli companies as part of the BDS movement. I guess I'll keep on waiting.

I wouldn't want to make any comparisons to other products. I can tell you about ourselves that traditionally, we've always preferred delaying releases until we're much more calm about its functionality and quality, rather than releasing it simply as soon as possible, so we are in line with all the other communication applications who released it since day 1.
This time we might have been a little under-prepared, that's true, but still it is important to note that Andriod 4.x user percentage among all Android users is still very, very low. If we were to follow the "usual" criteria for devoting resources within a company, you would see how that couldn't be our first priority.
However, we are working on it as hard as we can (with more than one coder! haha) and we should have good news soon. I'll keep you posted

It has been almost a month, care to give us some details on the progress?
Is viber going to be available to users of Android 4.x anytime soon?

it looks like they are still coding for the new system

@Casilan,
We have made some serious progress in the past couple of weeks, and the end is certainly in sight.
We still don't have an exact release dates, but we estimate it will take up to several weeks for it to be fully ready and released to Market.
Note that our development team is working around the clock to complete it ASAP. We apologize for the delay, but it's important to understand that it's delayed because we want to ensure that the app is released free of bugs. Stay tuned for news - it's coming soon.

Going to the US from Canada - What should I do?

Hey everyone,
I'm going on vacation to the US and for those people in the US, I wanted to know what services you guys use that are exclusive to the US. For example, things like Google Voice, Spotify, Google Muisc aren't available in Canada, so I thought I'd make use of my time in the US and get some of these awesome services. I've already made accounts for Google Voice and Google Music. Is there anything else you guys recommend?

No offence intended, so please don't take any.

Amazon Instant Video is nice....Oh, and enjoy your stay here on the US!

I use Google voice all the time.
Enjoy you're stay and have fun.

Without spending Money in main balance How can we Talk?

HI XDA-Members,
I am thinking the more flexible way to talk internationally without spending main balance. Yes whats whatsAPP is giving only through message transfer. But if we can talk directly through one application, then it would be a huge gain for the users and lose for telecom providers. I am not telling about video conference, also audio conference. I do not know whether such app is available or not. If the app is not available, then it would be a huge. I would try to work on that. Please XDA members give me suggestions on this.
Sanjay

Please XDA Members, give comment and proper suggestions on this....

I am telling that I want to make an app which will help users to talk with anyone without spending a single amount from main balance......
This is a purely web based app... but would be too useful.
