Is that not the way it is already if you long press an image? The view in the feed is from Facebook's website, so I can't change that.

You can send me an email with the screenshot, but since I can't replicate it, it is unlikely that I will be able to fix it. For now you can long press images in the newsfeed, since viewing the full sized photo on Facebook often doesn't improve the quality, as they compress all their images.

I will consider adding a language option. The majority of the app's language should come from your Facebook language preference as well.

Translations come and go as the app updates. If you'd like to contribute, you may do so here:

https://github.com/AllanWang/Frost-for-Facebook#translations

See above post. Use long press in the newsfeed for now.

Can you confirm this works in your browser at m.facebook.com? I don't see a reason why it won't work in the app, as I have done nothing to modify the interaction with the overflow menu.
[Android Apps and Games] arturo0891:
about full view image... the point is not to press and view in full view but see no margin images in news feed. it is possible. plesase see screenshots from Frost and another FB client. Huge difference: news feed fills all the display, no nav bars, no margins

Thank you for your hardwork, love your application ?

Keep it up. ?

Only one thing please do something that when using transparent mode, we could change the accent colour.. Plz..

Thank you ?

I would like to install this on my wifes Galaxy Tab 2 but I can't get to d/l to install using The Labs app on it. Can the apk just be downloaded and I xfer it to the tab?
[Android Apps and Games] asdfasdfvful:
If you have the play store version installed, uninstall it first. If it's a clean install, there isn't really a reason why the xda labs one won't work. You can choose to install apks manually through the github stream, though you will have to manage updating yourself.

Is the issue with the content in the notification or that if you click it it shows a blank screen? I've noticed the latter does happen, though I'm not sure why. A refresh (drag down) will fix it though.

What's the "accent colour"? Is it not already a part of the theme engine?

Which app is that? I do see a way of forcing images to be full screen, but it will make small ones really blurry.
[Android Apps and Games] Sagar_zac:
I said while using transparent mode I can't use any accent colour along with it..

Thank you ?
[Android Apps and Games] Sagar_zac:
I am saying this.. Plz make it work I don't like the default blue with it

Neither. I don't get any notifications at all. If I get a message or a comment on a post, the only way to find out is to open the app. I don't get a sound or a 'badge' at the top of the screen.
[Android Apps and Games] D4ND310:
Same. Running RR 6.0.0 Build date 11-4-18 - serranoltexx
[Android Apps and Games] asdfasdfvful:
You want a custom theme, so you need to select custom instead of glass. When setting colors, you can click custom in the dialog to select your own color. The background selector supports transparency.

If you go to the notification settings and click fetch notifications now, do you get notifications? If yes, then something is wrong with the scheduler. You can try re-installing this. If an error occurred, then you can email me with more info.
[Android Apps and Games] D4ND310:
Yes, I get notifications when I fetch them manually.

Thanks, I'll try to reinstall again but it has been this way since I had the old G-Play donation version installed. I uninstalled that and reinstalled the Labs version on the first day it was live. Had the problem for a while, with various RR-6.0.0 versions throughout March/April.

Occasionally, there are some sporadic, intermittent notifications appear but, generally, I have to open the app to the foreground and perform a refresh.

Thanks.

Howdy! Thank you for the beautiful app, appreciate the hard work! I got one question though, if I open a picture and I want to download it/save it on my phone, what should I click?
[Android Apps and Games] BillGoss:
Tap on the picture, tap on View full size, tap the download button.

I'm currently not getting any notifications. The only way to check it is to open the app and check which tabs have a number on them. The notification symbol comes up when I open the app.
[Android Apps and Games] Odenwälder:
Me too, I also don't get any notifications, but I can fetch them manually in the app. But I don't receive them automatically. No root, no greenify, no battery saving app. Stock V20 nougat software.

But I love this app, nice work dev. Only thing which could be improved is getting rid of this Instagram advertisements in the news feed. But apart from these two things perfect app. Thanks.

Edit: Sorry i'm on 2.0.0, i'll try 2.0.1 an check if it's fixed.

loving the opensource and account switching. the rest is nice icing on top.

in terms of privacy, its great that you are opensource - is there anything in the app to protect users from FB's privacy abuses?

i'm using basic.facbook.com atm. it's not perfect, but it is better than their massively intrusive app
[Android Apps and Games] marko89marko:
Is this application safe?

How can I be sure that the creator of this application has no privilege to keep my facebook passwords, email, messages or anything else?

I know this is an open source application, but I'm not a programmer and I do not get into the code.

Can someone explain to me, I just do not want to use an official facebook application because it has permissions for everything, so far I've only used facebook on a web browser.

Thank you

If you can't understand the code then you'll have to trust people feedback ahah. It's safe to use don't worry

[Android Apps and Games] Sobek5150:
I've noticed this happen before in Frost. Typically it's because Facebook has updated something on their site which this app is using (through APIs or whatever- not sure) and since the app hasn't been updated since April we get this weird header.

At least until the app dev implements a fix and updates here on XDA.
[Android Apps and Games] BillGoss:
I've just noticed that I'm getting a sound when I like a post. This hasn't happened previously to my knowledge.

Anybody else getting this?
[Android Apps and Games] Sobek5150:
Yep. Again like the issue some are experiencing with the washed out header (where you type a new post) the sound is new to Facebook too.

Facebook must have updated their mobile website coding to include a sound. My wife has used Chrome for Facebook forever since she doesn't like push notifications and likes the "Most Recent" option that's easily accessible through the web version. Last night she started complaining about the little noise when she clicks something.

After all that I switched her to Facebook Lite where you can still mute those sounds. Until dev for Frost implements changes in his code to account for the website changes we'll all experience this.
[Android Apps and Games] D4ND310:
I have a similar thing but not in the header, only in the Status Update section of Newsfeed. Build v2.0.0.2.

I assume it is a FB official mobile website style update, rather than a Frost issue.

* Edit: Excuse me, I didn't see the reply from [MENTION=7311352]Sobek5150[/MENTION] before posting. Agreed.
[Android Apps and Games] emacsomancer:
Thanks, Facebook. I'm sure there must be lots of people out there wanting annoying noises to add to their Facebook experience.
[Android Apps and Games] ianmacd:
Possibly their assumption is that anyone still using their service in June 2018 has demonstrated their willingness put up with absolutely anything from the company.
[Android Apps and Games] Eggstones:
Odd I don't see that. Mine is all black including the header.
[Android Apps and Games] emacsomancer:
Be that as it may. But it does not seem to be a feature that's going to draw new people to use Facebook or current users to use it more, and it's going to cause me to avoid using Facebook on mobile until it's 'fixed'. I'm not going to use any official apps from Facebook (e.g. Facebook Lite). I may be crazy, but I'm not *insane*.
[Android Apps and Games] TonkaToy87:

Resolution is really low, but I want it to play automatically in the highest resolution available.

EDIT: Actually it's not a new thing lol
[Android Apps and Games] asdfasdfvful:
Glad to see that there's still activity going on here. It seems like I stopped getting email notifications, which is why I haven't been as responsive.

I'm still working on this project, though it will take a bit of time before I get to fixing bugs and updating logic. Android has changed a lot in the past few months, and I will be updating some components as I go.

Here's my general list of tasks:

* Priority 1 is to fix visible bugs, namely the css and js. This is very volatile as it breaks whenever Facebook updates. I have already fixed the css for the newsfeed (see below for link)

* I want to optimize parts of the UI to hopefully make things load faster

* I want to add a lot more tests to make the app more stable. It's a bit hard to test given that everything is dependent on my actually logging in, so most of the tests are manual. I will see how I plan on addressing this in the future.

* I want to add a way to back up and restore settings

There are many other internal changes I want to fix, but I think the points above are going to have a direct impact to you, the user.

To get the latest working build, you may fetch the test apk here. It just fixes the white that appears in the newsfeed. Note that you will need to uninstall your test app if previously installed, as I have updated all the signing keys. Once I release to xda labs, you will have to reinstall there as well.

I will try to get my notifications back up, so if you have questions I will happily answer them. A better way to reach me may also be through github issues, as I check those pretty often.

[Android Apps and Games] asdfasdfvful:
Another micro test update: v1995

It fixes more of the newsfeed, as well as the white you see when it first loads.

The compose button should also work now, though the compose box is not themed.

[Android Apps and Games] lazostat:
Multiple accounts most time don't work. I have to put passwords again.

Also the white background on my wall, to write what I am thinking, is very annoying if you have amoled/dark theme.

Sometimes also I can't view some comments and I have to reload the page.

Also when I open some links externally, doesn't always work as expected..

Can you fix all these problems?

Is there a better alternative?
[Android Apps and Games] dhannyell:
I just wanted to say that 'it's an amazing app
[Android Apps and Games] kuduku:
No issues on 2 accounts in the latest test & old stable app
[Android Apps and Games] lazostat:
So am I the only one I have these problems?
[Android Apps and Games] asdfasdfvful:
I haven't tested multiple accounts in a while, but it wouldn't be something that breaks with a Facebook update. It could be that for some reason, the app is not allowed to store cookies in files. In that case your login will not be saved. Another possibility is that you are perhaps logging out or invalidating your sessions elsewhere.

If notifications work fine for you, then the file access is probably good. If not, then that may be the problem, and a lot of other bugs may arise.

Theming breaks whenever Facebook updates, so I will have quite a lot of work ahead of me. You can feel free to list down exactly where you see problematic spots, but if it's quite obvious I'll probably see it as I scan around. Another problem is that Facebook sometimes releases different sites to different locations, so what I see may be different. That will be a bit more tough to debug.

For loading problems, I'd have to take a look. If you are getting a blank page, I'm not too sure what the problem is. If it's an error message, let me know the link or the type of link it is. Not all links can be opened independently (ie in a new window)
[Android Apps and Games] lazostat:
TYou mean the notifications when i open the app ( the bell icon), or the notifications on notification screen? The first doesn't always work and i dont know why. The second works fine.

Not a black page, neither a error message, i just get a half loaded page, i see only the first reply of the comment and i need to refresh to see all the replies.
[Android Apps and Games] asdfasdfvful:
It may be a case that I filtered something that prevents it to load, but it's unlikely given that it appears again with a refresh. I'm not too sure how to debug that.
[Android Apps and Games] cajun8282:
hello , anyone here is using the automated version?? and its working?i would like to try a newer version than the stable one to see if the voice messages are working now

btw. thank you for the nice client asdfasdfvful
[Android Apps and Games] asdfasdfvful:
Please try v2022

If all is working there then I'll push it to xda labs.

The main difference between test builds and release builds is that test builds are done automatically with every change I make. Not all changes lead to suitable builds. Any test build I link here should be good, as I have at least tried it myself to make sure there were no obvious errors. Test builds that come from the dev branch or a tag are also usually good, as I make partial/breaking changes in other branches before merging
[Android Apps and Games] BillGoss:
Looks good.

The only problem I have, and it's the same with the stable version, is that I have to press the back button twice to exit. The first time it takes me back to my news feed, then the second back press exits the app.

Do you need a log or some more info?
[Android Apps and Games] asdfasdfvful:
That is expected behaviour. The back button will go back through the webview (like how back behaves in a browser). Once there's no more to go back to, it will allow you to exit.

I have noticed that if you open a notification and press back, it will show the feed in the overlay. That is unexpected, but it may be due to Facebook.

You also don't have to exit the app every time. I already freeze the webview from loading anything when you exit it, and the app should reload everything if you come back from an extended period so you don't get stale information.
[Android Apps and Games] BillGoss:
That makes sense, if I had visited another page (like in a browser). But if I open the app and do nothing, then to exit I have to press back twice. That doesn't sound right to me.
[Android Apps and Games] asdfasdfvful:
Issue Tracker

Facebook changed the way they load their content. Even if you type "touch.facebook.com" in your browser, it will add another home feed to its history. Who knows why they thought that was a good idea.
[Android Apps and Games] BillGoss:
Ah, that explains it - thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] cajun8282:
v2022 seems good so far.but still not able to send voice message right? but the rest is looking nice

eit: ok that is weired ...mynotification panel shows some false pictures in some cases.. hmm
[Android Apps and Games] asdfasdfvful:
If you can't do it on the mobile site (touch.facebook.com), you won't be able to do it here. Facebook is trying to move away from mobile sites as well, so things are going to be more restricted. Not sure about the false pictures, but check the mobile site in your browser. It could be a problem on my end too
