Twitter for BlackBerry smartphones updated to version 3.1.0.13 in the BlackBerry Beta Zone
3.1.0.13
Fixed. Thanks!
Can you edit retweets and go over 140 characters yet? If not, wake me when you can
Honestly RIM is a couple of years over due for twitlonger or tmi integration.
well number one you CAN edit retweets since version 2, and number two u don't need to go over 140 characters if you learn how to fit what you need to say IN 140 characters. if u can't then get a blog. :) the point IS 140 characters. that's the art behind it. and i guess in ur case the challenge. ;)
I never go over 140 for a solo tweet. I go over 140 if I'm retweeting and trying to respond in the same tweet or if I have a link etc.
You would never have a problem RT'ing. Only if you're trying to add some sort of quatation marks or something that you'll have problems.
3.1.0.13 people.
If RIM gave us the option to fully customize twitter for bb it would be the best core twitter app available. Currently using twittdom.
"Twittdom"? And where would one find this "Twittdom"?
This app is so annoying we have none of the new twitterdotcom features like ios and android
Why does RIM have to include the Promoted Tweets? I use Ubersocial sometimes, Blaq on my PlayBook and Tweetbot on my ipod touch, and none of them include those annoying promoted tweets. ...
And displaying the user name instead of the display name first is dumb. For example, RIM shows up as Research In Motion first, and then @BlackBerry in much smaller gray font beside it in my timeline. It should be the other way around.
you can "dismiss" them via the menu. once you dismiss one, the only time another will pop up is if you use the web to post tweets from. if you strictly tweet only form ur bb, you won't see them AFTER you dismiss the one that pops up. :)
and the reason(s) the latter is done like that are both professional and clarity reasons. often someone can't find the handle they're looking for because it's already taken, so they have to create some stupid sounding one if they happen to not be uber creative. This way, u can see right way who it is as opposed to some silly ass twitter name where u can't understand who it is, u know? :)
I think that image correction was a big thing. I was getting annoyed when trying to zoom in and out.
As far as I have noticed, the duplicate reply bug is still there..:(

I didn't like the new features added and the old features omitted from 3.1 so I went back to 3.0.
T4bb is the best client out for bb smartphones.
I really really REALLY want them to include seeing a persons picture gallery and for the app to open up at the tweet on your TL you last closed on!
Other than that, I LOVE the app!!! It's so much nicer and cleaner than the other one I was using. But those two features are the only reason I haven't switched over completely. =\
