S4GRU BBM Group

Recommended Posts

I was thinking about starting up a BBM Group since it is multi-platform now between BlackBerry, Android and IOS phones with WP8 coming out in not so distant future. Good Idea or Bad? Just want to get everyone's opinion especially from the Guru known as Robert, the man himself.

 

My pin is in my sig for those that want to tell me personally that I'm nuts but who isn't?

 

Just wanted some honest opinions, nothing more.

I liked BBM when BlackBerry gave me a developers phone, but I think I still prefer GroupMe and WhatsApp for large cross-platform groups.

Thing is, have to give out your phone number for those 2 apps. Don't want anyone having to do that.

I can just show the barcode for people to join instead of having to get phone numbers. For example.

Sometimes people can have discussions about something where we don't have to tie up a thread. Back and forth with out starting arguments in the forum threads. Also get help directly, possible one to one interaction.

Wow, That was easy to join just by scanning the bar-code. I think it's a good idea.

 

Has anyone scanned your barcode, Josh?

I had my barcode removed years ago. What are you talking about? :P

 

How do you know?  You cannot see the back of your head.

Just realized that this thread is titled "S4GRU BM group". Come join a group where we talk about poop!   :lol:

 

Oops, I guess IPee.Board must have flushed the second B.

 

:P

I think AJ should join, I triple dare him to show up. Be a man, instead of a little girl hiding behind mom's skirt. Look at it this way, if I'm brave enough to start this on my own, then AJ can man up.

Okay, but which one of us is playing the role of Richie Incognito, and which one of us is playing the role of Jonathan Martin?

    • Okay.  I just pulled the Location permission with the app running, and I think it may have closed and immediately reopened.  But I got a notification telling me that "Permission required" while the app itself just said "Waiting for update.." with a spinning circle.  Once I tapped on the "Permission required" notification, it popped up asking for location permission which I then granted. - Trip
    • Thanks! There have been some recent changes to Android permissions requirements that were not documented very well and caused a tremendous amount of problems, especially for users who recently updated to Android 14. Thankfully I have some decent monitoring and diagnostics in place so I was eventually able to figure out what was going on. I'm basically looking for testers to mess around with revoking/denying/granting permissions to make sure the app doesn't crash and the workflow/warnings are reasonably clear. I do know that if you revoke/grant permissions while the app is in use, the app sometimes requires a restart (or at least as swipe out and back in) to get the proper prompting, but it's difficult to control 100% of the scenarios with the amount of background work SCP does with methods that require special permission.
    • So I revoked the permissions before doing the update on my S21FE (Android 12) and when I reopened, it asked me for the permissions, which I granted.  No crashes, all went smoothly.  Is that what you wanted?  If so, I can repeat on a few of my other post-10 devices.  If not, let me know what to do differently. - Trip
    • A new SignalCheck beta release is rolling out now.. this includes several bugfixes, notably issues on Android 10+ devices when Location permission was not granted, and on Android 14 devices when "Allow all the time" Location permission was not granted but the app was configured to launch at device boot. Please test this version by temporarily revoking permissions for SCP and ensure the app does not crash -- it will not work very well due to Android security requirements, but that's the point..
