Any good IM APP around? - Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps

Hey there,
I´m trying to find a good IM app, so far I tried eBuddy and Trillian, but both leave me connected even when I choose to disconnect; Mercury Messenger keeps reconnecting from time to time.
So, any ideas? Does not need to be multiprotocol, I use msn most.
Thanks in advance!

Try IM+ (paid) or imo: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.imo.android.imoimbeta&feature=search_result

There's always Trillian
---
sorry, i didn't see you tried it, but settings should have a disconnect upon sleep or after a certain amount of time if i remember correctly. It disconnects when I want it to, so i dunno?

I've used:
Palringo, eBuddy, Trillian, Bejive, and Meebo. So far, the best client I've used has been imo hands down. It's free, here's a link, try it out: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.imo.android.imoim

I prefer Dolca HD personally. I use MSN, gtalk, and aim on it and it works brilliantly for me.

Best part is that it is fully optimized for tablets.

Best Messengerapp

whats the best messenger app? for msn mesenger and for facebook chat?
I use ebuddy, you can sign in to multiple accounts at once and the FB chat is really good. Plus it is free in the market.

Indeed! Until then, I agree with eBuddy. Definitely better than the 2nd best, Meebo.
Ebuddy until trillian comes out. Meebo keeps disconnecting.

currently using trillian beta and looking for a skype replacement (official app is too big and sucks). any suggestions?

ok thanks, is it optimized for the tablet?
I went to the Android market but the 'Twitter' app looks like it's for the phone, is there a HD version?

I like plume, it has an in app browser function to view links which works very well.
I like this one:
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.thedeck.android.app&feature=search_result
But then again, I use it for my Facebook too.
I use the stock twitter, it may not be designed for tables but they designed it to scale correctly so it looks relatively good.
I've also used TweetComb, https://market.android.com/details?id=com.chriswstewart.twitter&feature=search_result, with good results.

[Suggestions] Best App for Texting from Tablet

Looking for an App that will let me send texts from my touchpad to my phone,
I have seen a few but i really want to hear what other people are using to get it done. or if this is just something i like the idea of
I have a google voice account but i hate that it doesn't use my real phone number, also before you talk about the integration, its UI is horrible so i would rather not use it.

I don't know about texts because of your touchpad doesn't have phone signal, but why not just email yourself?

get an IM app
I think he just wants to be able to use his tablet to send texts via his phone. Meaning, he can come home and plug his phone in and use his tablet to send/receive texts from his phone. I am interested in the same thing actually. I don't wanna tote my phone around with me, if I'm chilling downstairs and using my tablet.

if you havent done so on sprint. get on Google voice.(its free for sprint) u can use the official Google voice apps on your tablet to send text thru wifi, also received them.
i tried a bunch of apps on my touchpad but never found one that works as good as google voice. my touchpad and phone are both set up with google voice and it's integrated with my sprint phone number so no weird number to deal with. works great for me. only thing is once you integrate, no more going back to vvm unless you call sprint to get it set back up.

I have been looking for the same thing for a while. I have been using Airdroid which is webbased and it seems to work ok for me.

Thank you for at least reading the OP
If google would spend about 20 minutes working on google voices UI I would probably use it.
I will look into airdroid, tablet text also has a decent amount of good reviews so I have been looking into that as well

I use this app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/...wsMSwxLDEsImNvbS5kMGxwaDFuazFuZy5zeW5jc21zIl0.
It uses dropbox to sync the messages between your phone and tablet. Works great on my wifi only flyer

how is it for UI, and for speed between syncing? that was some of the stuff i saw in the comments
because i have a dropbox account already and was looking at that, i also like that if i am out it mean i can use my phone to tether and then sync my sms anywhere.

Personally I like the UI. And the speed between syncing is almost instant when you have push notifications enabled. Here's a screenshot of it if you want to see it

I use mysms on my touchpad. You just install the app on your phone and tablet and then send texts from your tablet. I use it on my touchpad and works flawlessly.

Just an fyi: If you want the push notifications, you have to press the version number like 10 times or something (I didnt count I just hammered it until the option became available lol)
TexTab without question. I love it, and the UI is nice and simple (uses BlueTooth). It uses your messaging app in that it uses your phone's signal and leaves the text message in the history of the conversation on your phone.

I have a better one for you go to Google play and search for mightytext, this app can be used on Google Chrome and the tablet and the flawless features are: sending mms, making out going calls, and it has notification of your text and the people who call you.
Plus one on mighty text. Use it in chrome and loaded the website on my iPad a few times

Facebook?

I'm having several issues with FB, the biggest being after I look at "X" pictures (My man Club?) no pictures will open. I have to reboot the phone and it works for a minute, then same thing? It seems to me, each time a i open a photo/movie and I backout, it stays in memory until FB is usless?
Lastly, and not that I really give a crap, some of my ex-wife post I get, others I dont. The Only reason I mention, she will post pictures of Granddaughter. Friends of mine get them and call and tell me how cute she is. I dont get them. The she will post something else, I get it, so she did not defriend me? makes no sense!
I have version 1.9.6
Anyclue?
Anyone? 100 views and no replys, any thoughs would be appricated.
Don't know about the pictures and videos, but I know you can block specific people or groups from any post you make, so your ex could be choosing to block you on certain posts.

Not to be smart, trust me, she has no clue how. Matter fact, no one in that family nor mine (except me) could do that. Oh well............
More worried about my phone freezing after I open "X" amount of photos. I cleaned up text messages, e-mails, mobile photos today (Photos are on FB anyway). Maybe Photon will run better?
Use friendcaster. Much better than official fb app anyway.
Well, mystery #1 solved (I think), she (they) are not smart enough to defriend me and she swore off FB. But since my daughter loves it and so do her religious friends, they created secret goup just for them. Click on THAT group and post, only they see it. I guess now and then, she slips and just post on her main wall. If I go to her profile, I see ALL the post! That makes sense.
With the freezing, clueless. Since Feb 18th, 2012, I have not installed or updated one single app!

Friendcaster is nice; there's also Fast and Scope (Scope is invite only; install the app and then use invite code "theverge" to create an account) but none of the third-party Facebook apps can see your entire feed. There will always be some things that will not show up in third-party clients.
A more elegant solution I have found is to use Facebook on your mobile browser. It takes some tweaking to get the desktop site to display, but it can be done. Make sure you're accessing www.facebook.com and not just facebook.com; also setting the user agent to desktop can help as well.
Also, you can get the customizable Maxthon (google it, it lets you customize the name, icon, homepage, and other settings). Name it Facebook, give it a Facebook icon and splash screen, and set the homepage to Facebook, bam, you got a Facebook browser. The browser itself is very capable, and has the user agent feature if you want to use it for the desktop version.
It just helps to have options. The Facebook app has always been sub-par.
I use SEESMIC. It works surprisingly well. Works with twitter too, but I use tweetcaster for that.

When my phone starts messing up, it's the first app I delete. Works everytime! and the funny thing, I don't have the other apps you mention here and my auto-update is off for everything. FB just crashes the phone for no reason out of the blue. Always has!
Are you on stock? I'm running MIUI and mine crashes mostly when rotating the screen but sometimes for no reason at all.

I'm stock, but it seems not to matter as I was unlocked and running CM7. Sadly, the only people I know NOT having issues are the 4 iPhone users I know. If I were adding apps and/or doing auto updates, I would maybe understand. I'm not.
Facebook I'd a billion dollar company, producing crap apps. The problem I have with there app is that every update will make or break the functionality. On a side note, the reason handloom works so well on, iOS, is because they have a whooping 10+/- devices to support, versus the hundreds of android devices on various os software. Ie: eclair, froyo, gingerbread, ics, honeycomb, etc. So I can't hate the facebook android devs completely just hate the issues that come with updates!

I don't use any facebrick app I only check facebrick from the stock browser. I don't have any issues whatsoever.
Granted the function of uploading pictures to facebrick is done through the gallery on the rocko rom I am using.
