ronniethebear Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 Has anyone experienced horrible lag recently when using AIM on your Sidekick? For the past week or so, it seems like it takes literally over a minute for my messages to go through to other people, and it's severely annoying.

eddieruckus Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 ive had messages lag for almost 20 minutes within the last few weeks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ronniethebear Posted December 11, 2007 Author Share Posted December 11, 2007 ive had messages lag for almost 20 minutes within the last few weeks Goddamn, that's ridiculous. I wonder if it's Tmobile, the AIM app for the Sidekick, or a combination. Whatever it is, it's irritating. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
momentumlost Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 yeah ive had this problem...i called and their response was to disconnect from aim and reconnect... i added myself to my buddylist and i test message myself before i have a convo and see how bad the lag is....

forgeagain Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 I heard the best way to avoid this is to not use instant messenger on your phone. AIM can wait until you get home, dude! I think the best time for instant messaging is when you're in class. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest abravemorning Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 I've had the same problems. Also AIM showing people "Away" when they're not and "Available" when they're not. It's some sort of problem with the AIM application. Not just T-Mobile or AOL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ronniethebear Posted December 11, 2007 Author Share Posted December 11, 2007 LX=waste of money. Yeah, I'm not upgrading because I'm going to let my contract run out and then get an iPhone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest abravemorning Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 The LX has nothing new that the 3 doesn't have with the exception of new look and microSD. Same with the Slide. The Sidekick ID is a good value, though. My Sidekick 3 is falling to pieces on me and I'm due an upgrade next month, but I'm not sure if I want to stick with T-Mobile. I might just go back to a Sidekick 2. And the iPhone looks like a ripoff. It has nothing new aside from a touchscreen. It doesn't even have an AIM application.

Dude, the Sidekick 3 does have a microSD slot. Also, you obviously haven't done your homework on the iPhone. Nothing new? Take a look at a video demo of the Google maps function. You'll want one for that alone, not to mention all the other functionality it has. AND you can get all kinds of third-party apps, INCLUDING AIM. ronniethebear = PWN'ing n00bz since 1980 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
