Thread: Social Beat Pushed to All Verizon BlackBerry Users

Yes it is just a link. Just hide it if you don't want it.

-sweet! That's what I figured. I hate that verizon pushes these things on the 9530, knowing how limited and precious our device memory is. Lol! GO BIG RED!

this app is still a little buggy with the 9550...i like the layout. i wish it was a few more options on twitter...maybe with a future update...this app is still missing a lot. someone just commented on my FB wall and social beat didnt show an update but FB for blackberry shows and update with a link...so now i have to pull up in blackberry's slow browser to see comments...ugh

*Verizon App. I don't think RIM had much to do with this one. Then again, I can't really think of a GOOD verizon app lol. Maybe Song ID but the touch screen is horrible.

Yeah, their apps always remind me of how resourceful their website is for their BlackBerry users...

Imo, it is quite slow - at least too slow for my needs!

I agree with the rest of the gang. I installed it on my storm great layout but the hang time really suck. Guess I'll keep waiting for an app that does my twitter facebook and has the speed that my thumbs have mastered.lol

Sounds like the opinions are 50/50. I guess I'll just have to try it myself. Easy enough to delete.

is there any way to delete these pushed apps from my fone

I downloaded this app on my tour and I keep getting an "Out of Memory" error message. Is there something I need to change in my settings?

If you haven't installed the app, then no. It's merely an icon that takes you to the install for the app. The best thing to do would be to just hide it.

That's what you get when trying to open the app?

My battery usage went to 5.3 from 2.2 since installing this app. Only use Facebook so I don't need all the extra stuff so I deleted it.

Tried it for a couple of day, was not impressed. When I downgraded to 484 from 530 I did not reload it. I miss the notifications and the ability to upload pictures like the actual FaceBook app. I'll stick with FaceBook and UberTwitter. Besides having the F & U side by side on my home screen always makes me smile during a long day at work!
