[nkj]

Hi, the black theme is looking great, especially for Amoled screens.

There is a bug, If I am in the chat mode with a person and have an yellow "1" notification in the right upper corner and when I press on the notification marker I can't switch to another person (who was wrote to me). The problem appears only with one chat notification.

Suggested Addition: it would be nice to be able to change the group of a contact inside contact's details
Suggested Addition: it would be nice to have a per-account status message, not one for all

Thank you!
We have forwarded these suggestions to our development team for consideration.

Possible Bug: it happended that cleaning the avatar caches I've lost the source avatar on the server for ICQ anche Skype

This behavior is very strange indeed.
When you wipe avatar cache, only avatars received to your device memory are deleted.
How did you check that your initial ICQ avatar is deleted from your ICQ account?

Possible Bug: not every contact avatar are recovered. Few from ICQ, MSN and Skype aren't retrived from server.

Please note that IM+ can not receive avatars for offline contacts.
Normally receiving avatars for online contacts should take some time, especially if you have a prolonged contact list.

Possible Bug: sometimes IM+ is online with all the configured accounts but the contacts list remain empty

Suggested Addition: logging off reset the online status. It would be nice to keep the selected last one

These cases do look like bugs.
In case you notice such behavior again, please press Volume up or Volume down button, and then submit a support request from IM+ selecting Menu / About.
We will investigate the log files.

Thank you!

regarding the issue with the status it is slightly more complicated.
It seems to be limited to Gtalk. If i set the message once to online on android with im+ and then set it back to online then the status the contacts see is different.

Thank you!
We have reproduced the situation on our side.
Our development team will investigate it and resolve this issue.

regarding the issue with idle, its on AIM and Gtalk . Basically the user is not at the computer so the AIM there sets it to IDLE (usually after 15 mins of being IDLE , AIM turns this status to AWAY). on IM+ the idle state is still shown as green.

Possibility to see for how long a contact has been online, This feature is present in Beejive and Trillian.

We have forwarded your suggestions about idle status support and the online period to our development team for consideration.

JoJo: I did more tests and it's not a IM+ so please forget it. It's an issue of my desktop Multi-IM software (Miranda) that mess with avatars. Sorry.

Possible Bug: not every contact avatar are recovered. Few from ICQ, MSN and Skype aren't retrived from server.

Please note that IM+ can not receive avatars for offline contacts.

JoJo: Yes I know. But after days I have some online contact's avatars that aren't still retrived, on ICQ and MSN. It is possible that the process can take days? Especially on MSN, contacts from my work list are online at least 8 hours each day.

Thank you!
Is your own number added to your address book?
Then this situation is normal.

2. Settings - Wi-Fi sleep policy didn't translated to Russian.
3. Settings - System notifications didn't translated to Russian.

Yes, sorry, we are working on new options translation currently.
All the options will be translated in release version.

This process should not take days, of course.
Please check whether these avatars are shown correctly in your desktop messengers.
If so, please send us a support request from IM+ and specify IDs of the contacts, whose avatars you do not receive to IM+.

Just a small request to correct a wrong Italian translation:

In the menu list in Account folder it is shown an "Aggiungi conto" label (Add Account). The word "conto" means something different than "Account" that in Italian language is not translated. So the right translation is "Aggiungi Account".

Thank you!
