Twitter for BlackBerry updated to version 1.0.1.4
The official Twitter for BlackBerry client was quietly updated yesterday. The last update we saw was a few months back but now version 1.0.1.4 is available for download. So far I've noticed the ability to change your photo sharing service (yFrog or TwitPic) but other than that no notes on what's new and exciting, so if you download and find out be sure to leave a comment. As of right now it isn't showing the new update via blackberry.com/twitter but BlackBerry App World is ready and waiting. Thanks to everyone that sent this in!

Built-in update checker is showing nothing and when I go to App World it still shows 1.0.0.45
AJErvin12 Sep 16, 2010 at 3:59 pm
Go MyWorld and hit ALT R-S-T. It will restart. Once you go back in you should see the update.
jorGeorge Sep 16, 2010 at 7:27 pm
Thank you, this did the trick.

I love SocialScope. I tried the Twitter for Blackberry, and every other program, and nothing compares. I guess if you haven't got the invite to Social Scope, Twitter for Blackberry is the next best.
itsdollar Sep 16, 2010 at 3:21 pm
SocialScope is overrated to me. UI is worst than 4.3 OS and the app is only good if you use Foursquare, Twitter and FB together. You have many limits using FB through SS as well.

thats what i been sayin
TaZ52083 Sep 16, 2010 at 3:11 pm
Don't see update version posted.
jdpeal1979 Sep 16, 2010 at 3:17 pm
Hey just to let you know the update is not showing up anywhere!! So you need to change the post for now!!
cp3for3 Sep 16, 2010 at 10:41 pm
Restart your device. I was wondering why no updates came up when I checked on Twitter for BB. That is until I restarted. Weird way though if you ask me. It should just come up.
redwanhuq Sep 16, 2010 at 3:18 pm
This version isn't available anywhere yet.
charliebrown490 Sep 16, 2010 at 3:21 pm
There is also a new "Welcome" item in the menu, with the suggested users divided into categories and the option to directly search for someone.
Edit: found the update in App World.
redwanhuq Sep 16, 2010 at 3:25 pm
Where and how did you find it?
itsdollar Sep 16, 2010 at 3:26 pm
Not showing up on Blackberry website either.
It's there now (AppWorld)
nyjetsfan25 Sep 16, 2010 at 3:23 pm
Update available from App World for me. I noticed it just before reading this post. I'm on the tour 9630.
berryfreak310 Sep 16, 2010 at 3:25 pm
It's showing up in App World for me...Just finished installing the new Beta OS 5.0.0.938 on my 9700. Any other updates gonna come out today? LOL
Wizetux Sep 16, 2010 at 3:26 pm
I found the update in the App World, but I first had to create a stupid BlackBerry ID before I could install it due to App World 2.0.
HipPo13 Sep 16, 2010 at 3:27 pm
If appworld still shows ver 1.0.0.45, press and hold the alt key while typing r s t, this will reset appworld and show you the current version. Worked for me...best of luck
dpac4686 Sep 16, 2010 at 3:28 pm
I just downloaded it as well. I found it in BlackBerry App World. I have the Torch.
redwanhuq Sep 16, 2010 at 3:28 pm
Those who don't see it yet, open App World, hold Alt and press R, S, T. It should reboot App World. Then search for Twitter and you'll get the updated version.
crigga84 Sep 16, 2010 at 3:32 pm
In the Twitter menu it now says "Welcome". Is that new?
luvcoffee Sep 16, 2010 at 3:38 pm
My Twitter app icon indicated an update. I went to "My App World" and saw I had an update available. I'm updating it now.
nolhayes Sep 16, 2010 at 3:49 pm
I wonder if it supports the new tweetphoto links
DrLouie Sep 16, 2010 at 3:50 pm
I wish developers would publish the changelog. When an application goes from 947K to 1.1M and your 9000 is already struggling with application memory, the changelog would allow us to see if the upgrade was worth it.
I still wish RIM would release a phone in the same form factor as the 9000 with 1G of application memory and let it be the flagship phone again.
MaxPayne79 Sep 17, 2010 at 6:12 am
not sure where ur seeing 1.1 but i have 984.2 up from 974k. if u have the option, never download from appworld. always download from the web because 90 percent of the time the appworld versions are multi-language which accounts for the inflated size over the web version, where u can choose english over other languages. i prefer smaller apps as i've noticed they run faster aaaaand...i have the 9000 as well :)
tnhrocks Sep 16, 2010 at 3:51 pm
I don't remember if this was in the last version or not? Other than that I don't see anything else.
TwistMyMind Sep 16, 2010 at 3:54 pm
Something that is NEW: you can't automatically open link in tweets. you must click BB button + choose "open link"
gatorboi352 Sep 16, 2010 at 4:02 pm
I've unfortunately had that issue for a while.
jls9999 Sep 17, 2010 at 1:37 pm
I updated my Twitter software, recently, and can still open links in Tweets. Select the Tweet you would like to read, scroll right and highlight the link, click the select button and the browser launches. No problems on my end with this process.
ompaidjo Sep 18, 2010 at 10:11 am
yupe, I can't no longer open links by clicking on it..
mr.rickeyk Sep 20, 2010 at 2:07 pm
I thought it was a bug. I deleted and re-installed Twitter hoping it was a bad install. It's not... & it sucks. Sometimes you have to hit backspace 2 or 3 times to back out of a tweet. A little annoying.
Desilator Sep 16, 2010 at 3:55 pm
Anyone else seeing this? When I click a link it brings me to the Tweeters profile. Links aren't opening nor is an option to open the link showing up. Running on Bold9700
Tjitte Sep 16, 2010 at 3:59 pm
A very noticeable change is that Twitter for BlackBerry is now fully in Dutch for me. I don't know if there was a Dutch language in the previous version but I'm happy now.
batrad Sep 16, 2010 at 4:05 pm
See the new version on my Torch 9800, but wont let me download it..
Flurrycat Sep 16, 2010 at 4:05 pm
I'm not having any issues opening links directly from the stream - I just click on the link. If it matters, I have a Torch.
devGOD Sep 16, 2010 at 4:15 pm
still the same calm you rate error... can't RIM do anything right
MOE BEATs Sep 16, 2010 at 4:57 pm
After the download I noticed my wallpaper reverted to the default screen and I had to re insert my media card to get the one I set up back. To add, I lost the little TMobile ID word even though I could still see a 3G signal...WTH?
9700..
Guatiao Sep 16, 2010 at 4:53 pm
I click and nothing. I have to use the menu... Using a 9700.
TwistMyMind Sep 16, 2010 at 5:12 pm
It's probably a new "safety" feature so you don't click a virus link
chopperman Sep 16, 2010 at 5:11 pm
Got it on my 9000. Had to refresh App World and then it still didn't show an update available. But clicking on "Twitter" in the "My World" section did show the update.
I guess RIM is concerned about battery life since 5-min is still the lowest refresh rate. Lame.
The "Welcome" screen in the menu is just odd. Why have a separate user search on there? And why not just putting the user suggestions in the Popular Topics area on the Navigation Bar?
Come on RIM...if UberTwitter can put out an awesome Twitter app, then so can you.
stoneland Sep 16, 2010 at 5:11 pm
I use UberTwitter.
yeahboyyy Sep 16, 2010 at 7:38 pm
do you want a cookie?
Altarocks Sep 16, 2010 at 5:30 pm
On my Torch, where this is a native app, Twitter doesn't appear in My World, even after the alt r,s,t thing. Within the Twitter app, version is shown as 1.0.0.48, and pushing the check for update button returns a "no updates available" message.
tedesco Sep 16, 2010 at 6:50 pm
Not sure if this was there before but there are some symbols I dont recall seeing before... cloud, umbrella, sun maybe more!
RAUB Sep 16, 2010 at 7:12 pm
I failed to install it from AppWorld on my Torch too and I made OTA - http://forums.crackberry.com/f209/twitter-blackberry-1-0-1-4-ota-529564/
yASMiN37 Sep 16, 2010 at 8:18 pm
this didnt update anything but the Welcome in the menu and pic options .. i guess ill be going back to ubertwitter ... try Blaq also
tnhrocks Sep 16, 2010 at 8:31 pm
Blaq is a good app! The Tweet from any menu is sweet.
Lovesherbb1915 Sep 16, 2010 at 10:32 pm
I just opened the app, checked for updates and it worked. Just finished downloading it. I wish they'd add Plixi, though. I don't really use TwitPic at all anymore. :/
aubinhick990 Sep 16, 2010 at 10:43 pm
Another "feature" that was brought back was the ability to click a link on a tweet and open it...instead of having to "Menu > Open Link" on the Storm devices.
renzokuken.tan Sep 16, 2010 at 10:55 pm

I use Ubertwitter and love how if you click on a picture link, it uploads the pic right away without having to open your browser!!! On BB Twitter, you have to click on link, then another link to view the pick which opens your browser. Too slow for me. I'll stick with Uberstwitter until they can do that.
peconicgp Sep 17, 2010 at 9:49 am
Got to say i like the UI for T4BB however gettting kind of annoyed that the Open to Last Tweet feature has not been added yet. Any word on wether this addresses that or not?

"Refresh tweets every 5 minutes" is too long. I enter many contest on twitter, getting a contest announcement 5 minutes after it was posted is too late for most contests! Sticking with Übertwitter!
