[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

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.

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

Camera fault!

If you take a picture with the front facing camera the picture is reversed! That's a serious bug.

I thought it intentional as its intended for video chat and a number of webcams do the same?
Dave

Why would it be intentional? The image is reversed as in looking in a mirror. I fail to see why anyone wants a picture that's like this, it makes no sense.

If you look at answers to this sort of question say like the one at http://uk.answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20081105205530AAkO4zU it is because you see yourself how you are used to. Like I said to me I assumed it was intended that way because my webcams have all done the same and as its intended for video chat like a webcam is, it is a possibility as I doubt such an obvious bug would slip through lg's testing.

App associations?

I've had my One S for about a week now, coming from a Nexus S. I was pretty blessed with the vanilla updates, but was excited to use the best yet Sense 4. But one of the few gripes I have about this stock ROM is that when I click youtube, instagram or other links that have their own apps, I have no option to "complete action using..." And it kicks me to the web browser every time.
Have you noticed this? If you have, have you found a solution? Or a workaround at least?
Sent from my HTC VLE_U using XDA

I have noticed this, and I've noticed that when I click a Play Store link that it brings me to the web page instead of asking if I want to use the app instead. I've cleared defaults from my browser several times, nothing works. I'm pretty sure that it worked before, though, so I'm stumped.

What browser are you using? I downloaded the Chrome Beta immediately after setting up the phone so I have no experience with the stock browser. Are you using the stock browser?

I'm also using Chrome, which I suspect might be the culprit, but I haven't had the time to uninstall and test.
Sent from my HTC One S using XDA Premium

This is a probelm with the updated Sense. App Associations only lets you pick a browser to open urls.
If any of you can call HTC or go and send them a report on their website it would help, I have a Rezound and the problem has been there with every ICS leak. I filled out a support ticket but don't have a One device.

I have had no problems at all with this, I'm using chrome. I have been able to open play store as well

root the phone, delete htclinkifydispatcher.apk from /system/app, clear defaults for the browser, reboot. youtube, play store links, etc will prompt what to open when you click on them.

I tried to freeze that app, using TB. But now Google search widget doesn't work.

yeah, using root browser, wont let me delete that, keeps on failing.
went into titanium backup and froze it, now no links open, there is no prompt.
hope its that easy

This fix worked for me, in that it allowed me to open links to the market through webpages. However, it seems to create a new problem -- it breaks QR code scanners...
Looks like this may be happening on all HTC phones: http://androidforums.com/htc-thunderbolt/550016-app-associations-screwed-my-phone-up.html. From what I have read, this is due to the Apple lawsuit. Given that the lawsuit only dealt with US users, I wonder if European versions are having this problem.

After freezing it, were you able to still use the Google Search widget?

It looks like links directed to the old Market actually open to the Play Store. It's just newer links to http://play.google.com/store that take you straight to the browser.

No, my phone does not have this issue, UK unbranded.

Yeah, I started that thread over on Android forums.
I'm kinda glad to see that I'm not the only one having these problems.
I'm running a Thunderbolt. Just got the update (both my wife and I).
Now both of ours are having this problem.
I've searched and finally narrowed it down to the new App Associations section.
I don't think it has anything to do with which browser is used.
It just now forces all 'Web URLs' to use the browser as opposed to an installed app.
I don't know how extensive this is, and who all is going to be affected by it, but it's definitely a major issue. It destroyed the usability of this phone.
I'm can't root my wife's or my own phone. There's got to be a work around. Or they've got to be releasing a revised update. This couldn't have been done on purpose. The phone worked beautifully before, integrating all the apps that I had. Now everything I do is screwed up. Nothing is working how it's supposed to.
If it's any help...I have an HTC Thunderbolt through Verizon. Stock Rom.
Is this new App Association thing affecting all Androids? Is it something that was updated across the board, or only on specific devices/ or specific carriers? I've been banging my head against a wall trying to figure this all out for the last three days, and it seems like no one knows what I'm talking about, and my posts are invisible. I've been going crazy.

Looks like HTC got sued, so those of us in the US with an HTC product got screwed.
They are avoiding legal issues, be removing an Apple Patented process for detection of things which can open apps that are installed on the phone.
Without this, the phone is junk to me. It makes it wholly unusable and takes literally at least 3-4 times longer to complete my tasks.

There's not going to be an unrooted work around. You have some choices, but they all require you to learn to live with it, root, or get a different phone.
I am an angry consumer, and I punish companies that screw with me by not doing business with them, and encouraging others to avoid then as well. I've also been known to fire off an angry letter, or phone call to the offending party. Apple isn't worried about you or me, so that's wasted effort in this case. What's left is punishing HTC by not buying their products, but it's too late in both our cases, so basically call or write them telling them to "fu***ng pay Apple for the patent license and fix our phones". This App Associations bs ain't cutting it to keep us happy. Like you I don't want to root, but I think it may be the only way, unless a ****-ton of us tell HTC to fix it, it's going to stay the same.

There is a work around, at least for YouTube links. Install the app Flashify. Share the YouTube link to it and select the YouTube app

If your custom rom is euro based, this makes sense. They were not part of the trademark infringement case brought by those idiots at Apple, so they don't have the app management workaround that is causing all the problems.
Does your custom rom have signal problems? As I recall, that was an issue being reported by tmous customers who tried some of the euro roms.

Yes, its euro based. I went with it because of the app association. Well I've been using it for a while now and I have no problems with it. I've read about a "data bug" but have no problems with signal or using the mobile data.

I read in a review that the s6 has the same screen off capabilities as the moto x where you can command it and it will come on. Is this accurate?

Yes. I didn't get a chance to fully test its limits. The cool thing though unlike the moto x you can use any word you like. It doesn't have to be three syllables. In my text it was "hello" and it responded perfectly.

A follow up question: can that trigger Google Now rather than Samsung SVoice?

Also the video isnt working on the phone, recording video on camera or snapchat. It records on the camera but then it freezes when you play it back. and on snapchat is just says recording failed.

Camera quality does not seem very good. The only thing that may make me switch back to a Samsung based ROM.
Anyone else notice a camera quality difference?

Yeah, it seems the same for me. I'm tempted to dual boot though. I do like this rom for the most part.
