Version 1.0.2:

File Transfer support for MSN/Windows Live Messenger. Same user interface as AIM file transfers in build 1.0.1.
Auto away setting for in-holster and when idle. There are 2 preference settings for this under the "Auto Away" section.
Updated preferences screen. Preferences are now categorized into sections.
Better reconnects after phone calls.
Better battery conversation. Updated battery saver algorithm for when the application is idle.
Jabber resource name setting. For Jabber and GTalk, you can specify a desired resource name when you configure the account (or later when you edit
the account).
Optional alert profile for sent messages. This is a new option under preferences, if checked, will enable a new alert profile that can be used to
play a sound when a message has been sent. You can use this feature to mimick the experience on many desktop IM programs.
MSN buddy list load error fixed. This was a high priority bug related to MSN/Yahoo interoperability. Quite a few user experienced problems recently
with loading their MSN buddy lists, which should be fixed with this build.

Nice, thanks.

I'm most interested in the battery conservation improvement. I stopped leaving it logged in since it would drain my battery by 5 or 6pm (at least with my old 7130e). Now that I have the 8830 will see how it does.

Thanks for the heads up! I didn't get anything in email (release announcement), perhaps they're still working on the mailing...

When you log on it tells you.

*nod* I forgot about that -- my use is really sporadic, since most of the time when I need IM I'm in front of a computer.

(that and I'm waiting on T-Mo to release that darn 8320 so I can have a real keyboard, IM isn't so fun on the 8100 :( )

I agree on the battery. I just made the move from 1.01 to 1.02

We shall see.

Yeah, gotta love the upgrade notificaton upon login. Great feature!

fkjr2 · 07-29-2007, 04:05 PM

yes nice - logged in this am -

Dawg · 07-30-2007, 09:10 AM

Downloaded this this AM and ever since I have had the hardest time getting it to log in. My device has locked up ywice since the new instal as well and I have never had that problem before.

it just continues to time out on me.

plchan · 07-30-2007, 07:06 PM

After I upgraded to 1.02, I can't log into any of my IM services. I got timed-out and java lang exception.

I really wish I did not upgrade it today :( (I would need to use it after work when I am away from my PC).

Jaime · 07-30-2007, 07:07 PM

I´m having popup java lang exception with this version.

Not having any problems here, works like a charm on my 8800.

juwaack68 · 07-30-2007, 07:42 PM

JiveTalk locked up on my Sprint 8830 after leaving it on most of the day. I could toggle away from it to the main screen, but anytime I clicked on the JiveTalk icon, I would get a small dialog with 'Time Out' on it.

I was finally able to get into it and do a Force Logout.

Battery seems to be doing ok, too, with having it on all day (and I didn't charge the device last night). I use the Idle settings in JiveTalk, and also changed some screen settings, too.

Nice to not have a dead battery at 6pm.

i noticed the timed out issue, which i had it earlier, was caused by TMO EDGE service unavailable in S. CA for a short (or a long) while.

don.new · 07-30-2007, 10:54 PM

Froze my 8700 twice today.

Klotar · 07-30-2007, 10:54 PM

I had my very first lockup with my 8800 since getting the device, while on JT 1.0.2 today.

rivviepop · 07-30-2007, 10:57 PM

Did any of y'all having freezeups/etc. write to [email address]

and report? They say anything back?

sabrewulf · 07-31-2007, 11:13 AM

I've slightly used the new software release. I haven't had any issues on my 8703e so far.

solariansix · 07-31-2007, 10:28 PM

I've been having problems with GoogleTalk. The status of my buddies at times will not update properly. I can log off then on again and their status is then corrected.

Currently, however, I cannot even log into GoogleTalk through JiveTalk 1.0.2. A message says it cannot connect to host talk.google.com on port 5222, yet I can telnet to this port and log into GoogleTalk through my Gmail account. It's possible BeeJive is working on their server.

Right now, I am wondering if anyone has a copy of JT 1.0, because it is no longer available for download on BJ's website. I think I'd like to revert to JT 1.0 until some of these issues are addressed.

Cheers,
