Help Google Talk Client is Rather Buggy

[Xenon]

I'm on H8, but I don't think it matters as this is about Google Talk
application which is by Google, not Samsung.

It's buggy! Did anyone else notice? I'm not counting the occasional
disconnects or other stuff that can be attributed to network issues.

One particularly common problem is that messages that are received
while the client is not in the foreground don't get posted to the conversation
even though they do get shown in the taskbar/notification area.

At other times messages mysteriously don't get delivered even though
no error message is shown.

Yeah, its not very good. You're better off using something like ebuddy or parlingo

I use Meebo and quite like it; I dismissed eBuddy and Palringo as they both needed you to sign up to their respective websites and, whilst I was out and about, I couldn't be bothered. I might have another go when I'm at a PC. Maybe.

This is a known bug. See Issue 2023 - android - Google Talk doesn't show new messages in chat window - Project Hosting on Google Code

One thing that anyone who has this problem can do is log in to that page and vote for this issue to be fixed.
