Paying for their service actually does NOT give you unlimited skips. It gives you unlimited hours per month instead of the free 40 hours. Also it removes ads as well. The scumbag record labels probably won't ever allow unlimited skips.

Yeahhhhhhhhhhhhh.... except that's NOT how it works... or has worked... ever. I pay for Pandora one and still have the limitation.

Thanks for the app. No lag between songs!
Do these allow for unlimited listening even with a free account?
Pandora is not unlimited even if u pay for it.

I pay for the service so I hate that I can only skip 7 times. This works!
Cant wait to try this out, thanks a lot.
I also seem to have significantly less lag than on the non-themed 1.59 apk. I wonder if it's just placebo effect or do I actually have less lag? Sweet!
Ya I was thinking the same thing. The funny thing I notice is that when it does "lag", if I look at the widget, it will say loading, but if I open up the app it doesn't seem to stop as much.
Seems to lag more when I'm trying to use just the widget.

Wow! Great find! How come it (SprintNav) is not automatically updated to Telenav? The new UI is great and it sees I might be using this instead of Google Maps now.

Awesome, thanks OP. I was meaning to load SN back on after ACS Frozen but hadn't gotten around to it yet, now I don't need to. The old one doesn't even have to be installed for it to "upgrade"
The new traffic avoidance in google nav still needs some work, unless I just don't know how to use it.
Sent from my ACS frozen Epic
I have no idea why it is not automatically updated, a friend of mine pointed me to the update link.
Thanks for the heads up! Like others, I would never have known about this otherwise!
Sprint nav has always been my nav of choice but this is significantly better. Great find!

It appears to run a service all the time: "ResourcePreLoaderService"?
I hate when apps do that. I don't want to waste resources on app while I'm not running it. I'll probably uninstall it for that very reason.
Awesome! Really fast! Hope it keeps satellite lock better than Sprint Nav did in. EB13.

I don't think the premium offers much in the way of a premium offering. I don't use it enough to justify the price of it.

It seems to only run that service when it is running. I shut it down in task mngr after I closed it and I can't find that service. Correct me if I am wrong.
I tried it again it took me like 5 force closes to fully stop it. Yeah, that kinda sucks.
Hmmm....in diagnostics it still shows 10% for GPS and now 0 satellites when Sprint Nav showed 1. Anyone try this on a trip yet? Does it hold GPS lock? Sprint Nav drops constantly since EB13 upgrade.

In running services "ResourcePreLoaderService" for telnav most certainly runs constant and restarts its self if force stopped

I'm going to jump on and say you could do this with WidgetLocker. Used it since day 1 on the TB, and for quite a while on my OG Droid. Works fine and is getting better with every update.

The last time I used WidgetLocker (which was on a rooted DI) it killed my battery & lagged like crazy. My TBolt is completely stock, no root, so is WL really worth it?
This has been out forever... ran the beta on my epic a year ago.

Running WidgetLocker and Phantom Music Control on my Thunderbolt and it's great. The music control on that lock screen looks 100% identical to the Phantom Music Control widget.
Not sure if this was posted already, but I managed to locate this if anyone wanted to try it out. Works fine on my Epic.

Edit 1: I went to applications > Manage Applications and deleted updates from market to see if that would do the trick first. after doing so, now the market force closes like crazy. flashing backup now, will most likely report when I wake up tomorrow

Is it just me or is the facebook app lagging really bad?
On older versions it was a little faster.

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using Tapatalk
Yep I do like the older versions the new one sucks.
I believe it has a memory leak. I've seen it climb up to 44mb of ram. I emailed the dev but never got a reply.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using xda premium
It's an absolutely terribly coded app. It's basically the web interface with terribly memory management issues. It's hit as high as 55MB of RAM usage on my phone. I recommend just making a bookmark to the mobile sit and using that through the browser. It's essentially the same experience until we can get a decent Facebook app
Also the notifications are a joke.

Yeah the Facebook App has always been extremely slow for me. Takes upwards of 30+ seconds to sometimes refresh news feeds or to change sections. I've opted to use the mobile site version instead now... and guess I'll give friend caster a try!

It rarely notifies you, which is extremely annoying.
Facebook app is one SORRY A$$ excuse for an app...i really don't understand how they have that many people working and the updates just kept getting worse and worse...now it's just a huge battery hog and doesn't even do what it's supposed to properly...all those negative comments in the reviews and they just lie complacent as if nothing's going on....i swear it's a ruse by Zuckerberg showing favoritism to Apple probably...a-holes
Thanks for the TIP on the Friendcaster. that works very fast. now adding to my tablet as well.
One other tip I'd offer is looking into Tinfoil for Facebook. It's essentially just a cached, Sandbox'd version of the mobile site, but there's a dedicated app for it, and it does run fairly fast on my phone!
Friendcaster is lightyears faster and more efficient than the Official Facebook App.
The facebook app is utter crap. Way too slow!! Better off using the browser.

Browsing around in the app I think ever since the overhaul all the pages/sections of the app are html based... Before in older versions it seemed more responsive and part of the app, now everything is less integrated and more html to my eyes...

In my opinion the Facebook app has always sucked horribly. I have had it rated one star ever since I had my HTC G1. They have a lot to do to improve it and the dev support just seems to not be there, they are more into updating the iOS version assuming everyone is happy with the half ass android version.
Sent from my I897 using XDA App
The fact that the mobile version looks just like the ios app proves your point of them being more focused on playing with apples.... Sucks

Just use the mobile version of the site. Much better.
agree, facebook does suck, but its still one of the better ways to communicate...although i dont know why the FB developers always try to "improve somethin"...because it always ends like a catastrophy
