Yeah man I'll try FB support, I mean this App is also designed to cut costs for us, and it's going the other way around, even on Idle (when it's open but not sending any messages), it keeps pumping my Data Bundles. The thing is if U on a contract phone or using Wifi, U won't notice anything.... But with Pre-Paid U will

As U can see my Internet & 3G are turned off, no Background Apps, no FB, no Twitter, Ebuddy is off too, but look at the consumtion :confused: , before I installed Ebuddy, my Idle played around 0% to 15% with 3G and Twitter and Email on, now they all off but the battery is draining! :confused:
I noticed on my phone that sometimes my idle consumption starts increasing from "normal" 10-20 to 70 mA and it has something to do with eBuddy. When I turn off the push notifications form settings the idle consumption goes down now even to 7mA. I usually reinstall XMS and the problem goes away for a while, But I don't know if it is XMS related or it has something to do with the push system - internet connection.

Unfortunately my experience went for the worst and I sadly deleted mine, funny part, the phone is back to normal. I'll wait for the final version.

How do I completely remove all files related to it so that when reinstall it, it doesn't get affect the new one?

you probably can find eBuddy files here:

/home/user/.local/share/data/eBuddy

Re: Ebuddy XMS is out now
 
I am also noticing high battery drain while using eBuddy xms. I can run my phone all day chatting away on various IM's as well as sending and receiving emails but as soon as I load eBuddy up battery life just tanks.

Sorry for a dumb question but how do I get to that destimation? Do I need to plug in PC or through Developer mode?

This is before & after I uninstalled Ebuddy!

Before: Almost 1 hours 48 after Fully Charging the Battery

Attachment 24747

After: Almost 4 hours after Fully Charging the Battery

Attachment 24748

My data bundles seem stable too now! By the way check the other difference, my 3G is off on first screen, my 3G is On on the 2nd screen

In the future you can also use a file manager (search the nokia store). Don't forget to select show hidden files.

If everything's completely back to normal w/idle consumption once XMS is gone.
Then perhaps consumption's due a run-away process pulling more data than necessary.

So from my experiment do U agree there's a problem? Guess what, my data buddles are still the same as I left them yesterday, it seems there's no need to recharge today, If had Ebuddy, using it or not, my money would be gone :mad:

I wanted to keep it but switch it off until there's Fix for this, but i couldn't even find a way disable it aswell, once U install it's on like it or not, even if U close it push remains on so there's not difference. The Push button is blocked out so U can't turn it off!

Re: Ebuddy XMS is out now
 
You should be able to turn push of. It allways works for me when I have data and battery drain problems form eBuddy. I just turn off push and things go back to normal.

Re: Ebuddy XMS is out now
 
XMS push doesn't seem to really work for me. eBuddy (1.0.102105-31)

I have the mobile operator internet on automatic and also the WiFi at home and work. Push is ON. What did i notice:

1. Someone sends me an XMS. I see my phone after some seconts connecting to Wifi but the XMS doesn't arrive. I wait another 10 min, nothing. Then I access eBuddy and the XMS is received.

2. Someone sends me an XMS. No XMS received in 10 minutes. I turn off the phone and on again. After the phone loads, the message with XMS received appears without entering eBuddy. Could this be an indication that there is a problem with the push (Nokia account).

3. I have eBuddy on, someone sends an XMS. I receive it without a problem. I close XMS but the interent connection is still active. The person sends me another XMS. I receive it without eBuddy on. I wait a while and the interent disconects as there is nothing using in anymore. The person sends me again an XMS. The phone
connects to the interent but no XMS received. It seems that I can receive push only in the interent connection session that I had eBuddy ON.

4. Sometimes eBuddy goes crazy and it keeps my phone constantly connected making a lot of data transfer nad battary drainage (lik other users reported above). This problem is gone if I turn the push OFF and also if I reinstall eBuddy. When eBuddy works normal my idel consumption goes up from 15 to 25-30 mAh.

One important thing. I don't receive any message notification on the black lock screen. So often I would miss if someone sends me a message.

Yeah this Ebuddy needs some work for sure!

I had exactly the same problem as you have. Then i deleted ebuddy XMS and downloaded the version which is on Nokia Store since a few days. Since then it works perfectly for me! I receive every message, even when the app is fully closed.

I don't. Why all the sudden it works, since the Nokia Store version doesn't seem to be (at least officially) diffferent to the last beta version we could download the .deb file of.

So give it a try and I hope it works the same as it did for me.

Re: Ebuddy XMS is out now
 
I've just deleted previous files completely, now I'm downloading it from the store again! If I get problems I'm taking U out Almamo :)

Muzimak 2012-01-28 10:38
Re: Ebuddy XMS is out now
 
@Almamo I know it's a bit too soon for feedback but so far things seem tobe stable, data budles seem stable too, not sure about the battery as it's on a charger right now.

It seems my mistake was to install the version without completely deleting files for the previous version, so somehow it was mulfunctioning!

TMavica 2012-01-29 07:49
Dont know any mention before, when playing music, then open ebuddy, the music player will pause itself

Re: Ebuddy XMS is out now
 
It's been a couple of days now and everything seems to be running smooth! I love it, a coupe of additions will help though (Photo postin, Fuctioning Settings etc)

Yeah same here.. Photo would be nice and the most wanted feature after symbol on standby screen!

Re: Ebuddy XMS is out now
 
My experience with it so far

On the usability side
- Push notification works well so far
- If the app is in the background, it will always show "Searching for data connection" , however, it connects once a message is received
- Battery consumption is an issue if the app is kept running in background (could be related to the constant "searching for data connection")
- A bit slow to start up and lags occasionally

needed features
- Group chat
- Data sharing (image, sound, location...etc)
- Message indicator for LPM

So since I'm the only one among my friends that has N9, others use Iphones, E72, Blackberrys etc, if I install Ebuddy XMS, and they also do the same, can we still reach each other using different models? Off-course not for E72 as U previously mentioned, but when?

If this is possible then I'll advice all my friends to install it!
Hi!

Sorry for the late reply, I was on holidays :)

Yes, it is possible, XMS is a cross-platform application, so you can message on all platforms with your friends.

Best regards,
Aleksandra

Hi Aleksandra,

So glad that you are back! I was beginning to think that XMS is going to stop improving! Hope to see new functionalities coming soon!

was the sound problem mentioned? the one that stops music if i get msgs?

tanwg 2012-02-09 06:25
Re: Ebuddy XMS is out now
 
today i have gotten a weird bug. I believe XMS uses the media volume as the volume of the notification. Whenever i am in office, i will turn the volume down.

One day, my wife was sending me a series of messages. The volume was low initially. Then all of a sudden, the notifications became loud. Then i unlocked my phone to check and realise that the media volume has went up on its own. So i turn the volume down again. Then my wife start sending me a series of messages again. Initially the volume was low but suddenly, the volume went up again.

This do not happen all the time but comes every now and then.

Anyway i think that the volume of the notification should be based on the profile instead and not based on the media volume.

Do you still have the data consumption issue?

Just to make sure: do you have an app from Nokia Store or our beta?

Re: Ebuddy XMS is out now
 
I have noticed that there is a very loud audible alert tone when you receive a message while the phone is in "Beep" mode. Not Silent Mode, but Beep Mode. (This occurs when app is open and running, not pushed) Can this be changed so it does a quiet beep such as when you receive an SMS in beep mode?
I look forward to using the app more once it is polished. Any information on when the next update will arrive?

Yeah me too, where's Alex to explain this.....
What happens is, if the App is not used for a while, it kinda switches off even if Push is on! Looks like it requires constant checking to make sure messages get refreshed! :confused:

We'll look into it and I get back to you with solutions as soon as I have it.

How does Nokia's push actually work, does it involve Nokia server? Because many of the push services seem to be offline or not functioning at the moment. RSS feeds, emails from "ovi" etc.
