1. Which Twitter account should I follow to receive updates on new versions, etc.?
Follow @, yes there is only one ‘t’ in that name. Unfortunately the Twitter interface wouldn’t let us select a name with the string ‘twitter’ in it, can’t really blame them.

2. I changed my font size in UberTwitter options, but it didn’t do anything, whats up?
This is a bug!! We’re on it, but to get around it, go to the ‘You and Your Friends’ timeline and select ‘exit’ from the menu (towards the bottom). When you restart ÜberTwitter it will grab the new font settings.

3. The timeline screen text overwrites itself, is this a bug? Oh yes it is!
To get around it, go to the ‘You and Your Friends’ timeline and select ‘exit’ from the menu (towards the bottom). When you restart ÜberTwitter it will grab the new font settings.

4. The location function is about a mile off! Why is it inaccurate?
The current location mechanism is solely based off of the cell tower that your phone is connected to. The lat/long and address are for the cell tower with the accuracy component based off of your signal strength. We have seen this get as accurate as around 700 meters, but not much closer. In a future version we will support the built-in GPS if you are interested in higher accuracy, but you will still be able to select the cell tower method if that is more comfortable for you.

5. I installed, entered my Twitter credentials, and get the cryptic message ‘Could not authenticate you.’, what does this mean?
This means that either your Twitter username or Twitter password are incorrect, this response comes directly from the Twitter service.

6. Do you support BIS-B as a connection method?
No, not yet. We are working on this and hope to have a version shortly that supports this connection method. In the meantime, there are some options for configuring your BlackBerry that works for some carriers, see the next item for this information.

7. Since you don’t support BIS-B connectivity, what settings can I try for my carrier?
For all of the below settings, on your BlackBerry device, go to Options–> Advanced Options–> TCP set the APN, user, and password fields according to your carrier. Note, check with your carrier to verify that you will not incur additional charges. We only recommend making these changes if your APN field is already blank. Also, anyone that has other settings that they have tried and work, please send us a note via the Contact form.

8. How do I upload pictures already on my BlackBerry ?
If you are using a Storm, there will be a ‘Send To ÜberTwitter’ option on all of the camera and video menus. If you are on older versions of the BlackBerry, the only way to send a picture is to take the picture using the ‘Take Picture’ menu option from the Tweet screen. We have a picture browser but it was not ready for prime-time when we released this first Beta version.
