UberSocial formerly known as UberTwitter launched last night and they have released a new update to fix a sound issue. Version 1.175 is available for download.
The upgrade went smooth and does require a reboot after installation.
As we said a few days ago the UberTwitter BlackBerry App was suspended until some violations were cleared up. It seems PostUp / UberMedia has been working hard to get this resolved and the wait is finally over.
Please welcome UberSocial and give it a try, this new install should overwrite the older UberTwitter install.
UberTwitter has released a new version and it includes several new features. One of the features are new themes. Below is a screen shot of the new Midnight Theme.
Below is a list of the features and capabilities that are new to this release.
Bug Fix – Fixed a bug where the menu key would become unresponsive and occasionally the device would lock up. This same bug likely was causing excessive battery usage over time.
New Themes – You asked and we delivered two new themes! The Midnight theme which we think many of you will find extremely appealing, and the Über Classic theme which brings back many of the color choices of version 0.971 including the same solid colors for @replies and DMs
