Google Edition phones seem to be a popular topic lately. We saw Google announced the Samsung GALAXY S 4 Google Edition during I/O. That of course was followed by an announcement of the Google Edition HTC One. These devices feature the same hardware specs, but they will be running a vanilla Android installation and therefor be eligible for quicker updates. More recently though, it looks like the folks at OPPO have begun teasing a Google Edition handset of their own.

After the authentication token issues earlier this week, third-party Twitter app Falcon Pro has been pulled from Google’s Play Store. On Monday, Falcon Pro reached its limit of 100,000 users, who were each given an access token. Once that 100,000 limit was reached, new users could no longer get tokens to access the app, thanks to official Twitter third-party app rules. As a workaround, developer Joaquim Verges released a new version of the app that revoked all previous tokens so users would have to log in again, which would free up unused tokens and pirated apps. A few months ago, this solution worked to get around the token limit, but according to Verges, the limit was reached within 24 hours. To keep anymore people from buying the app, the developer has pulled the app from the Play Store.

As a courtesy to those who bought the app, Verges has uploaded the last available version as a Google Drive link until he can figure out another workaround for that token limit. Hopefully this won’t be the end of this fantastic Twitter application.
