UberSocial for BlackBerry got an update earlier this morning to version 1.250.  This update includes some nice features including OS 7 support.  Many of you have been locked down to Twitter for BlackBerry, but now you can get your third party Twitter app on.  Here’s the full change log:

• Direct support for the latest OS 7 BlackBerry devices
• For BlackBerry OS 6.0 and 7.0 devices we now support the home screen message notification bar so DMs, @replies/mentions and inner circle tweets will show up there for quick access from the device home screen. When you see the mini UberSocial icon, click the bar and the tweets/DMs that caused the notification will be displayed along with a snippet of the tweet. Clicking the tweet snippet will take you directly to it.
• Fixed bug where tweets would not open on some touch screen devices when you touched them
• Fixed bug where trending topics descriptions would sometimes overlap in the list.

It’s been quiet with UberSocial for BlackBerry lately.  For a little while we saw a chain of updates, more or so due to Twitter shutting them down, then a relaunch with some bugs.  We even saw 50 Cent get his own version of UberSocial,  open to the public to download.  Now a new update has surfaced, bringing it to version 1.20.  Included in this update is bug fixes and a new “inner circle” feature that lets you create separate timelines for users you’d like on their own specific list.  We have the same function already on SocialScope, so it’s nice seeing other BlackBerry Twitter clients expand to that.

UberSocial, formerly known as UberTwitter got an update earlier this morning to v1.175.  This update includes a ringtone fix for those who were having sound alert issues before.  So it’s not a huge update, but I’m seeing people are actually happy this update came out so I guess everyone had the issue before.

UberTwitter is back! Only it’s not called UberTwitter anymore.  Now it’s UberSocial, since Twitter asked them to remove the word “Twitter out of their name,” which resulted to be one of the reasons for UberTwitter’s suspensions.  So if you felt lonely without it for the last few days and couldn’t stand other apps, feel free to download UberSocial today.  Servers seem to be a bit busy now so have some patience.

After UberTwitter got suspended by and from Twitter yesterday, the company started working rapidly to work on changes in their application to get back into the game.  We had mentioned two reasons why UberTwitter was banned, one was because of direct messages being longer than 140 characters, and the other is the modifications of tweets to monetize.  What we found out today is that Twitter is demanding a name change as well, so now UberTwitter will be known as UberSocial.  Hit the jump for the full official statement from UberMedia.
