Google Mobile App for BlackBerry... Get It!

Anyone else having problems with downloading Gmail on the new app? I keep getting a "Couldnt downlaod" message

So far so good..

but wondering about applications such as calendar and doc.... on the blackberry it shows that we can set up an domain under the "option" tab. What domain is this???

someone please install this on a BB simulator and sniff what data is being sent back to the mothership.
I like google for their tools as much as the next person but since they are a telco, they have access to far more data when I use their tools on my phone than I care for. Them knowing that Mr.Torben searched for a drugstore while in the local pub, connected to a cell tower with such-and-such coordinates, just creeps me out.
Watch Steve Rambam's presentation from the last HOPE conference if you were not aware of what is being done by the data hogs like google.

ooooooo much better!!!!=)

Is there anyway you can add this app to the Bold. I tried but I don't get any install options.

YES!! Multi cal snyc is awesome!!

I have emailed Google 100 times that I think one thing their gmail app is missing is the ability to be able to add groups. For example I have a group with all the mods email in it, named it "CrackBerry" and when I start to type C it shows me all the emails with C and when I type CR it wont show my group.

My other "wish" is that I would be able to attach a file to a email. I would use the Gmail app more. Other then those 2 little "issues" the app is AMAZING!!

To having this app over having my gmail pushed to my BB through BIS? And for the calendar? I already sync my gmail calendar with BB VERY easily, what's the advantage to this app?

Personally I love Google products, but their mobile sector is something I never really understood on blackberry devices...they work great their is NO doubt about that..but I don't understand the point on a BlackBerry.

Gmail- Gets pushed to my BB anyways...

Search-Uh..4.5 OS and up all have google search built in may be this is just a tad faster but not worth the full download get the standalone.

Reader- One word..viigo FTW!!

Maps- Ok, you got me there...but I don't need a whole product "suite" my standalone is fine.

News- Viigo again FTW!

PS: Google, since we know you visit the site..let's get to work on Mobile Chrome for BlackBerry please, I know it won't be an Android exclusive but let us know you all are least working on a version for BlackBerry.

I have previously installed the older Gmail and Maps apps. Now that I've installed this app, can I uninstall the others and reclaim that space?

I see someone else has this issue as well. Is this a problem for Canadian customers? Anyone???

I wish sync would sync contacts too.

not too sweet if you updated your curve to 4.5 - doesn't recognize the OS as compatible......then again.....with 4.5
and google maps re-installed during my 4.5 upgrade....you don't really need anything that google offers here.

I tried to get this new app on my Curve, Will not load.

I do agree with Bla1ze...

Google should get working on a Blogger App instead, their mobile posting utility sucks

The UI is clean and looks very nice. But I guess for it to be really useful you would want to be using several of the apps and this can then be the front end to using them. I only use google maps and search google when using the browser so I don't see using this. I did install it to see what it was. So if you use several of the apps then you will probably want this one for ease of access to them.

Can someone explain to me what Section 11 of the TOS Really means?

They have the right to make content that I write or post through their Servers or Service available to other companies and for promotional puproses? Huh?!?!?

Sorry, but since the Chrome TOS issue, I have actually been reading these .. still sounds to me like they want to own my data ...

No thanks.

I get HTTP Error 503: Service unavailable. overloading or maintenance of the server?

My BB browser couldn't locate this website, why? I got an error back saying it could not retrieve the URL. That is really odd.

You can't upsize the font like the old Gmail app could. It's hard to read smurf sized writing on a Curve.
You STILL can't download attachments to your phone (WHY?!).
You still can't use the Delete button to delete emails (WHY?!).
The gmail notifier for new mail is gone from the new app button. You have to go into the app to see it (Or unhide the gmail app that was reinstalled, which seems redundant).
And where is the Picasa app for photos? Picasa3 is awesome and it would be nice to integrate it.

Otherwise, I dig it. Incredibly convenient to have it all available in one place.

After attempting for more that an hour, I can't locate the google application. I've tried on the blackberry and my computer. I get as far as typing in my number and they send me a text message; I get the link and the "app" isn't there all other applcations are. I tried from my blackberry and the webpage wont let me click on the "sent me text message with the link". I've cleared my catch, and no difference. I do have some applications from google already installed like "maps, search" would that be the problem?????

I keep getting a HTTP Error 503 Service unavailable, The server is currently unable to handle your request due to a overloading or maintenance of the server.. Any ideAs?

This is not available for the 8300! Rubbish!

This is not available for the 8300! Rubbish!

I am having trouble downloading Google app. When I go to m.google.com it doesn't give me a download option. I have to download items individually. I cleared my cache.

I just tried to download this and I get a message saying it doesnt work for my 8100 why is this and what can I do

Name Error: The domain name does not exist.

Please Help.

Thank you

but since Google search is already on Opera, Gmail pushed to BB, and already have stand alone map --- I don't have much use for this application. Good try though Google.

DL'ed the app last night and used it several times today, it works great, a lot better than Opera Mini which keeps loading sites in the wrong languages! Still have not used all the features but its great so far...

Can anyone get their Gmail to work from this application without a data package?

I got it to work on my phone with the data plan, but no such luck on the one without the data plan.

for the map too. Can't get that to work without the data plan.

It's not online at this link any more - problems?

What - no bookmarks?

I'll stick to the BB browser where Google is a bookmark. I'll also stick to Google Sync for Thunderbird's calendar app and the BB calendar, which works seamlessly. I already have Google maps, don't use gmail, etc.

As far as I can tell this adds NOTHING I don't already have, and I have to give up useful features to use the browser.

Thumbs DOWN. Uninstall coming UP.

I just got my invite and can not get mobile app to load, I have tried on my computer to send a link to my phone and on my phone. YES I have made sure that I have the browser set correctly. it goes straight to HTTP error 504 gateway timed out while waiting for a response. How it does that as soon as I hit send i don't know. then it say's contact service provider yada yada yada.

Any ideas?

They run you around in a loop now. Not sure what is going on. I had this on my Tour, which I gave to my son (headed to Haiti with USMC) and I am trying to put it on my Storm 2. But it does not seem to exist anymore.

Either someone building the pages for Google screwed up, or they have stopped allowing downloads. Really sucks. I need the voice search feature.

If you change your browser configuration from Blackberry to Firefox, the link for the Google app appears. I downloaded it to my Storm and it works fine. Disable compatibility mode so landscape mode works.
