g2 d802, the button does give feedback (sound on/off) but doesn't toggle anything at all. first time reported? will you need a logcat of toggling sound?

Thx, yes it's the first time. I am checking it right now, no logcat required! Thank you so much!

Notification sound button now does work. I think it didn't vibrate on new message though. And multiple pictures in one post work great :good:
[Android Apps and Games] taomorpheus:
Nice! :)

Requote in order to have it in this page.
[Android Apps and Games] biert87:
Uh oh, seems like it does not work with the notification sound..

First I should say I discovered that it does not respect system sound settings. So if I turn my phone to silent mode/only vibrate it will still play the notification sound (not the one I set in settings but a normal beep).

Then again I can control the volume level with vol up/down buttons while in a chat window and now it is silent and only vibrates. Weird

Edit: another thing: multiple picture posts can not be maximized?

Edit 2: in news feed you can't click to maximize, but when in single post view you are able to.. :)

Edir 3: when someone sends you a picture it shows nothing inside fast chat
[Android Apps and Games] taomorpheus:
Well that's a thing that I didn't considered. I will add controls if the phone is on silent or mute.

2) I will add the listener to open directly an image if it doesn't create conflicts (this is my only worry about it)

3)facebook APIs don't permit the access to the URL of the picture that has been sent. That's sad and without logic!

Thank you for the feedback!
[Android Apps and Games] mutantlx:
I've been watching and testing the last few updates as and like the work you've done.

It's nice to see pictures grouped at last as when a friend adds 67 pictures it turns into a night mare.

The only thing I would change now is-

1)slightly larger images in the timeline as it looks messy

2)a way to hide shared link s and pictures or even better automatically add them to a sperate page to keep the main feed free.

I'd then buy it in a heart beat if one of these 2 changed. Official app is too clunky for my taste.

[MENTION=4323714]taomorpheus[/MENTION] I did some changes in existing Turkish translation on getlocalization. Please update on next release.
[Android Apps and Games] cm2003:
Another suggestion of me has found it's way into fast ;)

It looks really cool. But it would be nice to have a small marker, arrow or something like that, which implicates that there are more images when you swipe to the left or right.

On the feed it's quite obvious due to the different style, but in details it's not noticeable at all.

Regarding your point 3 - even if it doesn't really bother me to first open the news, there should be workarounds possible?! Those urls are being provided for the details few, so it should be possible to fetch the information from there and link it into the preview on the newsfeed. At least I would assume that this is possible.

What would also be a cool feature is to swipe through the pictures of your newsfeed once you opened one picture.

[Android Apps and Games] taomorpheus:
Thank you, I have tried to follow your tip for the point 1, now the picture is bigger!

I have to think about 2, it should be possible! Thank you again!

Done! Thank you so much!

Well, I have tried many ways to get the pictures in a private conversation, but it's not possible. Facebook APIs don't return this field, maybe they will add this in future releases.

Swipe through pictures can be done, I will think about it. Thank you so much!

I'm curious to what happen for the update for pro users?
[Android Apps and Games] taomorpheus:
I am trying to reproduce the issue. If I find a bug I will solve it!

I have found some bugs and rare crashes in Fast, so I am solving them before the Fast Pro release. I am also adding few graphics improvements to begin the switch to the new Android Design!!!

I may be missing something, but where do I see comments on an event? On the events tab I see the description whether I'm going or not, but not the comments.
[Android Apps and Games] JC1988AD:
The only thing I'm not entirely sure about from first impressions is the arrow button to go back to the top - you have to scroll an awfully long way down for it to decide to appear... Also, shouldn't that floating bubble be something that: 1) Appears as soon as you start scrolling down (like in G+) 2) Has a more useful function, such as moving status update from the sidebar to the floating bubble.

Also, in making the status update animate out when tapping the bubble, you can also add buttons in that UI for check in, post a photo, private message a friend... (all the things you do in the sidebar).

Then, you could move the account switcher to the left sidebar, maybe with a nice downward facing button on the cover photo, which produces a drop down box with accounts, similar to on G apps. Also a nice big button for the settings or something.

Basically declutter it a bit?

That's something that I didn't consider. My fault, thank you for noticing! :good:

I missed your feedbacks! :D

I have to reduce the number of posts, now it's 15, but it's too much. The account switch is a good idea, the design guidelines already have this feature. In the second Material update I will add it for sure. Thank you!

I added a control to show pictures even if an high definition url is not provided. The strange thing is that sometimes the fallback for low res activates even if the url is provided. I have to investigate a bit, I will keep you updated! Thank you for the feedback :good:

I love the new design

[Android Apps and Games] mgolder:
Excellent app. Do have the blurry looking images issue mind, but no big deal for now. Love how fast it is and light compared to the stock Facebook app. Deleted the Facebook app a few days ago, as always running no matter what was annoying me. Opening AppOps and seeing Fast only have access to 2 permissions as opposed to Facebook needing more like 20 is quite amazing. :good:

Think I'll probably be going pro soon.

One 'request' or issue, is that I use xposed and have bleed immersive mode set in G2Xposed, and also have the nav bar change colour to match the status bar. For instance G+ is red nav/status bars to match the colour of the app. When in Fast, using white for instance, the status bar doesn't bleed to match the colour of the app, obviously the nav bar doesn't follow. I love the look of the orange theme in the app pics, so getting a full bleed like that would be amazing if possible.

Don't think I explained that well :rolleyes:

Bug? Number of likes and comments aren't matching with Facebook app, even with PC version of it..
[Android Apps and Games] pro.aggro:
This is because some of your friends block 3rd party apps. All their likes, comments etc are not visible with FAST
[Android Apps and Games] cm2003:
I have a really really really bad picture quality on the timeline, as well as on the status details. Also when opening the picture the quality is just total ****...

When I'm opening pictures from the profile page it's fine.

I'm not using the high performance feature.

Any idea?

[Android Apps and Games] Freak07:
Read back one page, the dev is aware of it and will investigate.
[Android Apps and Games] crnkoj:
Have to investigate really quick as almost all pics are of something like 120x120 pixels if not less and honestly it is very annoying.
[Android Apps and Games] taomorpheus:
With the new design I will improve the like and commenting experience! Thank you for the feedback :)

Can you send a screenshot? Thank you!

All the results are cached, so maybe it's an old version or friends have blocked third party apps!

Facebook has changed the API. The old hacks that I used are not working anymore, so I have to figure out a way to show hd pics. In the meanwhile are blurry because it's the only correct url that I have. It's a temp fix,I think that it's better to see something instead of showing no image. Have some patience, I will find a solution :)

Thank you for the support ;)
[Android Apps and Games] Freak07:
I think i found another little bug. The new circle profile pictures are looking fine in the timeline. However when you open a post from the timeline to the detailed view the profile picture looks somehow stretched in height.

And another little thing that stands in correlation is that the circle profile pictures do look a little blurried on the timeline and in comments. The same with pictures on the message view.

However the stretched ones in the detailed view appear to be sharper.
[Android Apps and Games] mgolder:
First one is my G+ with bleed immersive and matching nav bar. Second one is Fast with orange theme, as you can see the bleed to the status bar doesn't work, and as a result it doesn't change the nav bar for me either.
[Android Apps and Games] //.dax:
I assume that coloring thing you use is similar to tinted status bar xposed module, isn't it?

If yes, color isn't properly settled because app doesn't have normal action bar, which is needed for proper tinting..
[Android Apps and Games] mgolder:
It is the bleed immersive mode in G2Xposed. I had issues with the tinted status bar module so went back to this.

It's ahrdly a big issue, I use facebook pretty rarely now, just nice to have it work quickly and without a million permissions when I need it :good:
[Android Apps and Games] //.dax:
I don't know if you can set color manually with G2Xposed, but if not, there's nothing that you can do about..

App doesn't have traditional action bar, so TSB or G2X can't detect proper color.. Same with normal Facebook app
[Android Apps and Games] mgolder:
No it isn't manual colour tweaking in the bleed immersive mode, if it were all manual I'd prob not use it ha ha. It matches the colour of the app below the status bar automatically, then matches the nav bar to that automatically too.
[Android Apps and Games] crnkoj:
No need to write in bold... I just reported it even though others already did, because it really makes it most useless. Actually those low red pictures are more bad than good since at least I, can't make out anything from those. Anyhow some pictures are high quality, whilst most are just as described before, weird api that is... And yes I read your first post about the issue as well.
[Android Apps and Games] taomorpheus:
The icons are a bit blurried because I need a perfect square to create the circle and Facebook avatar in large definition are not always square, depends on the users! Square avatars are only 100x100 and that's a real limitation made by Facebook. There is no direct solution for now. I will try using a different approach.

Is the immersive matching the color in profile view? The main view is using a custom bar, that's why the immersive mode can't detect this.

It's bold because it's an important message and in the multi quote can be not found. :good:
[Android Apps and Games] taomorpheus:
Hey Guys!

I have released an update for Fast Notification with a new feature: fixed time intervals!

You can choose between 5,10, 20 and 60 minutes.

Let me know how it works, I think that using a fixed interval will use less battery! :victory:
[Android Apps and Games] mgolder:
If I go to my profile stream, immersive works top and bottom. Then if I go to my main stream after that it works on the whole feed. Just seems to not like doing it when first opening the app to main feed weirdly.

Fast 2.5.2 update

[Android Apps and Games] taomorpheus:

[Android Apps and Games] belyava:
Hi! Thanks for the update! It's much better now, but some pics still are blurred
[Android Apps and Games] taomorpheus:
Thank you! Yeah some pics are blurred because facebook creates the urls with a strange logic. 90% of cases it's clear how to "hack" the url to get the real image, the other cases are totally crazy and illogical! :eek:

I show you some examples:

This is a pic with extremely low res https://scontent-a.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-xpf1/t1.0-9/s130x130/1977183_757929894252304_571770556_n.jpg

Facebook apis told me that the original pic is:

"photo": {

"aid": "581462285232400_1073741846",

"pid": "581462285232400_1073742067",

"fbid": "757929894252304",

"owner": "581462285232400",

"index": 1,

"width": 720,

"height": 1114

}

So I can simply remove the resizer s130x130 and tada!

High res photo! https://scontent-a.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-xpf1/t1.0-9/1977183_757929894252304_571770556_n.jpg

But this is not working everytime, for example:

https://scontent-a.xx.fbcdn.net/hph...=5000d05a1125af45f69cc95b8a1ffeeb&oe=541095FD

I remove the resizer -> https://scontent-a.xx.fbcdn.net/hph...=5000d05a1125af45f69cc95b8a1ffeeb&oe=541095FD

And it doesn't work!!!

So i get the real size of the pic from the feed:

"width": 1593, "height": 945,

https://scontent-a.xx.fbcdn.net/hph...=5000d05a1125af45f69cc95b8a1ffeeb&oe=541095FD

And it doesn't work neither.

In this case I just hope that the feed replies with a high res url, otherwise it's impossible to guess the right hd link.
[Android Apps and Games] belyava:
Now I see! Thanks for the fast and clear reply. It's really weird. :) Is there any chance they fix this behavior?
[Android Apps and Games] taomorpheus:
Maybe with the latest update to the Graph APIs, but it's new stuff and I don't know if it actually fixes this. The bad thing is that even if this new api fixes this issue it's not guaranteed that the other features that I need to show the feed are still working, so for now I will try to improve the algorithm to predict the high res picture.
[Android Apps and Games] Setting.Out:
With xposed you can get ?tinted translucent? Module and it has manual controls..
[Android Apps and Games] mgolder:
I know, I don't want to have to do it manually though as I tried Tinted Statusbar and didn't like it compared to bleed immersive in G2xposed.
[Android Apps and Games] taomorpheus:
Pro version uploaded! Few hours and it will be available for update! :)

Hey [MENTION=4323714]taomorpheus[/MENTION] :)

How is development going?

I think I found a bug on the pro version.

When I'm on the news feed as soon as I try to scroll up or down starting on a multiple picture post (where I can slide sideways through pictures) the scrolling will not initiate.

Also sometimes the blurry pictures are back :(
[Android Apps and Games] belyava:
