Yahoo Messenger update and Facebook messenger integration - Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So I took an update to Yahoo Messenger and was interested to see the Facebook IM integration. Strangely, it never seems to be able to login to FB. Anyone got this working?

I've since uninstalled and gone with ebuddy. Seems is the only one not located in Korea! Anyway, it's good for what I want and brings lots of IM sessions under one app.

I see it (I'm using new market).
I'm confused as to why its not integrated into the main app. :/
Silly Facebook, developers... Just fix the notifications/instant updates.
I gotta remind myself to get to a damn blackberry.
So I can only get it from the new market? BRB, installing new market...

Maybe it's just me, but I'm not seeing it at all...
Nevermind. I found it on market.android.com and just pushed the installation to my phone that way. Not sure how this is any good at all, though.
I have it difference idk they released for the iPhone as well and you can sent pics so I'm guessing is like a blackberry messenger lol

WHY DO WE LIKE IT? It's weird to think that this can be a standalone app apart from the clusterzuck that Facebook can be but, well, it really can. It's as good as GroupMe or Kik or WhatsApp in the sense that you're chatting with friends without racking up SMS charges but it's better than those services because most people have Facebook accounts and don't need to sign up for a new service. It's easy to add buddies to chat (through their Facebook account or phone number), almost scary easy to attach your location to each message and less complicated than GroupMe to start a group chat.
Even if you hate Facebook, you don't hate your friends right? The Facebook-ness of the app is invisible enough that even the most anti-Facebook guy will have to admit this is actually decent. Seriously, strip the Facebook away and what you get is a messaging app that your friends have already signed up for. Why not try?

There's built in chat in the Facebook app, been that way for a while now guys...granted their notifications aren't working right for most people but the chat works just fine.
side note: are they gonna fix multi-quote on these boards soon? some problem with ad-block?
Could one of you share the apk, it's telling me a dumb error like my phone is not compatible and does the same for the official facebook app ....
[edit]Found it here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1210604
I tried this but the notifications arnt working. I've enabled all alerts, light sound vibrate but when I receive a message there's nothing. I have to go to the app to know i got one

Handcent/Contact Pic

May be a noob question, but a friend of mine has the Razr Maxx and in her Handcent conversation list it shows their Facebook pics. But my SGS: II is only showing the pics linked to their Google account, not their Facebook account. How can I link their conversation/contact pic to their FB pic? Is that possible on the SGS II? I can't find the solution
try hanxsync (paid) or fb contact sync. These programs sync the fb pictures to the right contacts.
Thanks but I couldn't locate either of those in the market :-/

It's "Haxsync" and "Facebook contact sync"
Sent from my SGH-I777 using Tapatalk
Haxsync lags and crashes the People app. I do not recommend it. Friendcaster is a facebook notification program, but it has a very good contact syncing feature and is free.
friends sync also works good

I use handcent with the original Facebook app and my pics sync. It reads the pic from the contacts so that's all u need. I had to mess with Facebook app a bit by clearing the app data and uninstalling and then reinstalling. But now that I have it , it works without a problem. It's a pain but it does work.

I did this, cleared data and reinstalled and and for some reason it still didn't work, so what I did was just remove the pic I had set for the contact and it imported their Facebook pic.
Thanks for the help everyone!

Apps for syncing contacts

I was wondering how well Friends caster did in syncing contacts. I have been using haxsync because I don't use the actual Facebook app much. My sister however really likes the Friends caster interface. I was wondering if I could remove haxsync from her phone completely and use friends caster to to sync her contacts

Agree with dafoxs recommended app. Seems to work best for me. I've used haxsync and friendcaster and they seem to not be working at the moment. I'm on jb paranoid android latest version if that helps.
Edit. I meant not syncing with contacts at the moment. You could use Friendcaster along with app.

Thanks for the input and I will try that one for my phone. I may go with friends caster for my sister since it looks to be a better facebook app than the stock app.

Email client

I am looking for a good email client for my phone and tablet. I have tried K9 and the Samsung clients but looking for something better. Anyone have some good ones?

I use Gmail. Always works for me.
Guess I should have added that this is for a non-gmail account. I do use gmail for my gmail account but I have a few other email accounts that I need a good client for.

Have all your other accounts push to Gmail and sort with auto filters?

I use touchdown by nitrodesk. My favorite and I've tried about 6. Moxier would be #2. though this is for exchange mail. so YMMV.

I vote Touchdown as well, but...................
Beware the sent emails that go missing completely (no success). Never fails to be a long and important message that disappears with no chance of recovering.
Also beware the included contacts app. Cannot create / nor edit a new exchange contact. Actually you can, but it will not sync with exchange.
There is a work around for this one.

I am a huge fan of AquaMail. It's so much better than MailDroid or K-9, the more "praised" mail apps. Try it out and I think you'll be happy.
Touchdown and Gmail here. Manage work contacts with touchdown and personal contacts via gmail. Keeps things nice and clean
I use MailDroid for my very finicky school email that doesn't work with a lot of other email apps. Never had a problem with it.
I see a lot of people recommending TouchDown, but I believe AquaMail to be superior to it. I've also tried MailDroid, K9 and they aren't as good as AquaMail.
Aquamail.

How is gmail on aqua? Does it get pushed or do you have to have it sync at certain times to get mail?

^^ IMAP Push works great in Aquamail for Gmail account.

Best email app

Hello
Right now using gmail and Outlook apps for my emails. I want to know your views on the email app you use and why you consider it better or best, including the stock app
Thanks

Always hated the look of gmail and was a big fan of the Outlook app... the past 3 months, Outlook has been horrible... laggy and unreliable. Still use it but now I am enjoying the new Inbox by Gmail. Great UI, fresh new look. Not yet as powerful as Gmail but I am sure they will enhance it slowly.
I tried inbox, didn't like it.
I have Note 10.1 2014 and Note 3, so want an app that works on both. I have gmail, Hotmail and yahoo accounts so...... need something versatile.

Aquamail Pro by far the best for me been using it since Note 2 days.

Yes, but it doesn't let me chose how and when to sync the email. There's no option for push, fetch or manual.

I'm using Cloudmagic right now. You can use it with every account you have, and it gives you the ability to create a cloudmagic account, so you can log in on other devices to sync them all.

Sticking with blue mail for now.
For now i am using nine(play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ninefolders.hd3&hl=en), simple interface and user friendly app. What make me purchase this app is, this email have app level security so my company can't remotely control my android security including wiping everything on my phone.
Aquamail is one of the extremely few android apps I've ever spent money on. I've used it with several major email providers. It's as easy and as heavy-duty as any email sw I've ever tried. The UI is no-nonsense, compact, easy to use and read. And the author/owner will actually communicate with you if you need that.
