Just upgraded and can’t see any recent tweets, at all. Newest is 3hrs ago, been many since. I pressed # to reload, it didn’t help.
My screen IS full of old direct messages and @zuffle messages though. Do I need to clean them out?
We just uploaded twibble mobile version 0.8.1. You can now update your twitter profile location directly from the phone. If you have a GPS phone you can submit your GPS data which can be translated into a address by the twibble server (“reverse geocoded”). It works like this:
If everything works well you should see your location in your twitter profile settings. Of course you can submit your position without using GPS as well.
In addition, twibble now displays locations sent by twitteriffic on the iPhone (those weird looking Strings in an users twitter profile: “iPhone: 53.584930,10.000259″). And finally it should run properly on the Nokia N78 (thanks again @nicksak!).
To update or download point your phone browser to m.twibble.de and follow the instructions.

Probably you run into the ‘broken’ JSON problem: It seems that sometimes the twitter API returns invalid JSON data which screws up the clients. This might happen if somebody of your friends deletes a tweet which still exists at the twitter caches. You will end up with your @replies and direct messages but no tweets. There are bug reports at twitter but I’m not sure what the status is. If you are interested check the twitter dev group . The problem should cure itself automatically after some time (i.e. after the broken tweet in question is no longer in your feed)

I deleted some old direct messages…fixed.
btw – on the client we have different background could for direct messages, I like it. The (d) on the mobile client isn’t so clear. Is there a way you could highlight better on mobile?
