This application is looking pretty good however I have found one slight issue... no information actually appears on the some of the tabs.. for instance the "news" and "friends" tabs both are currently showing no info at all. Not getting any errors at all and it lets me navigate round the tabs without any problems.

I have checked in FB itself and it is showing as an allowed application.

I am using a Kaiser if this makes any difference and have tried installing both the V6 from the first post and also the cab file posted a few pages back.

I am on a wifi connection and have waited a good few minutes in case it was taking a long time to load but still nothing.

The one tab that seems to be working at the mo is the one next to the "home" tab at the bottom, which is showing my current status and my current picture.

I realise this is currently still just a beta and should expect issue so not moaning just letting you know what I am getting! Keep up the good work as this looks like it could be miles better than anything else available at the mo.

I forgot to say, I've been banned from facebook today, I can only assume it's due to excessive refreshing :) be careful...
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] itwasntme187:
most of us are getting this... only a few here have friends showing on the friends tab, but soon... very soon v7 will be out with some more features...

*waiting... still waiting*
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] itwasntme187:
back up through the thread and read the discovered issues my friend...

this has come up loads of times...
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] anoyceperson:
ah right... I did have a read through the last 10-15 pages or so of posts but didn't see anything (must be getting blind in my old age). I will shut up and wait for the next update then! :)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] jhw549:
be patient my friend, I'm sure it will come ^_^
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] itwasntme187:
:D

i have my mug of tea and am just refreshing like crazy... but yes patience is a virtue

:cool:

Cornelha I got your message, dunno if you can see my reply though...
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] cornelha:
beta 0007 is up. Stop refreshing and start testing :P Folks with VGA devices please let me know if I am getting it right. Landscape partly works. Some buttons need reshuffling but I am just way too tired to do it tonight

I'm getting an error while extracting the V7 file that says the file XDAPPCFB.Controls.dll is corrupted, anyone else?

Edit: Appears it was only with one extraction program, winrar worked just fine.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] dom_mitchell1:
Has anyone tried this on an HD yet? If t's running ok on VGA do people reckon it's worth a bash on WVGA? I've been waiting until renders properly on a Diamond before giving it a crack on the gorgeous screen that my shiny new HD has....
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] jhw549:
cornelha, everything seems to be status-quo after the upgrade from v6 to v7... I can flip through the pages, no crashes now, but the only page that is populated is the one with my information on it, just as before...

EDIT: Correction, it crashed after I tried to click on my profile picture, Error log attached...
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] scotchua:
Same here, in case nobody has shown it i attached an image of the dual images i'm getting too. I'm gonna try this out on my kaiser after i grab it from home at lunch, so i can see the difference in how it runs between the two.

Also, it still sets my chat as offline when i sign in, and i have to go back into facebook and make myself be online again.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] ptyindian:
same here nothing is getting populated other than the profile picture and status. Also the tabs still are really not working on the fuze.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] vigin:

What is the fix for "Unable to Connect" error?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] kosmos5457:
Version 7 seems to be much the same as version 6. I prefered the Facebook topbar in there to be honest.

VGA is a little better with this one as tapping on the icons as they appear on the vga screen seem to work, only problem being that the selected tab shows up in it the resolution it would appear on a lower resolution screen.

I managed to get my facebook status to update through this program before using version 6 I would like to point out.

No other tabs work for me and I am still not able to view my friends list.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] itwasntme187:
i found thats a username and password error, check your errors.txt to see whats happening

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] diomark:
Sprint touch pro - beta7 -

Got it to login after reading the error log and allowing the app through the link (got the invalid api error from facebook, but it worked fine..)

but cant' really seem to do anything.. The only real information I've seen was my own profile page and status message.. (the other tabs are empty)

(Worth noting that i have ~450 friends - screams loading on the ipod touch tho..)

In the error log, I see lots of "Code 4, Message: Application request limit reached"

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] kosmos5457:
That's a shame but at the moment your not missing much. Just keep following the thread as some progress is being made and meanwhile, I'd have a think about perhaps changing that ROM that your using. I'm not too familiar with getting new ROMS either. I've only ever upgraded the ROM on my XDA Orbit and that was with a ROM that got released by O2.

It might even be that a later release of this application will work for you. Not too sure on why your having this problem with your Diamond though. I can only think it's the Vodafone ROM. I've not liked them since the Sharp GX-30, the only time I had ever been on Vodafone where it had its bluetooth functionality blocked and they later released the GX-30i which I believe was the same phone except with a software upgrade that enabled full bluetooth functionality. Felt cheated by that so don't think I could ever go back to them.

I know that many networks try to lock phones as much as possible too. Not sure on how much this can be done with a windows mobile though. At least with O2, its a pretty safe bet that their customisation of the phone will be minimal and ROMS are usually not that much different from the manufacturers ROM. Sorry for going a bit off topic.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] sparhawk6:
Sprint Mogul, v.7 - only 3 of my friends show up, and no info is shown for those friends other than their names.

I see no information on any other tab except for my status page, which does have my picture and current status, with buttons for update status, and from phone or file.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Prof. Yaffle:
I've just tried it on my Touch HD. As expected, the icons are squished because of the resolution. I can see my picture and status and also launch the camera app from that screen. My friends list crashes on the 1st friend (I have 72).
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] deedee:
Completely off topic but to remove the O2 customisation try the following:

Hard reset and then when it says "customisation in 3 secs" or words to that effect do a soft reset. Certainly works on my Alpine and on the Himalaya I had briefly.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Antboy:
Experience with beta 7:

Both beta6 and beta7 allowed me to log in, but would 'hang' on the log in screen for over a minute. For example, start XDAFBPPC, hit the sign in button (it remembered username & password no problem), and the wait icon came up.

Immediately went back to my Today screen, and re-tapped XDAFBPPC, and was given the main page, with no need to log in.

I have just shy of 100 friends on FB, and the list only presented me with 4 of them. Reload didn't help. Trying to switch to "Online Friends" only presented the same four (and they weren't online).

The status update worked though.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] kosmos5457:
I've not got a problem with the O2 ROM and not fussed about the O2 customisation but was trying to advise another forum member that their Vodafone ROM might be an issue in stopping the facebook application working for them.

I reckon that Vodafone would block any decent functionality possible, like they did with an old phone of mine. That's why I suggest he changes the ROM.

Thanks for your advice anyway.

Kaiser - beta 7

deleted all files from beta 6, copied beta 7 to a different location, changed connection type from 3g to wifi, (was thinking it could have been an issue with the T-Mobile UK 3g connection i was using but same error on home wifi) and logged in using a different username...

Still no friends on the list, still not able to see any writing in landscape mode although all icons are fine.

errors varied as i was trying different things but ended up where i started:

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Travis997:
please please please please please double triple quadruple please include an option for either having the WM taskbar or the old taskbar from version 6. because I freakin hate having to see that ugly thing above the mostly pretty app, and im sure many people agree.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] kosmos5457:
totally agree with that, the app does not look the same without the facebook top bar.

Error

I've installed this on my Touch HD to a folder on my storage card and get the following

An unexpected error has occured in XDAPPCFB.exe

Select Quit and then restart this program, or select details for more information.

This application requires a newer version of the Microsoft .NET compact Framework than the version installed on this device.

Anyone else had this as I thought the HD comes with the latest version?

Cheers
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] trikydiky:
thanks for your advise. can you point me in the riight direction for changing rom. i'v done a search but so far just found original roms. is that what im looking for? thanks in advance.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Djay64:
any reason why the application isn't accessible on facebook? i've looked but can find it to add
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] cruzzmz:
u have to install .NET 3.5 .... if not it wont work :(

dunno why but i think most of the stock rom only come wz .NET 2
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] jhw549:
previously I had NO top bar, it was impossible to close without hitting the hardware ok button then killing the task...
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] mahd-leb:
all the graphical stuff will be figured out at the end first whats important are functioning the features....i give you alot of credit man it sure is confusing to work on an app that making everything work at the same time it shud be a confusing lol
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] roxorz:
this app looks like a worse version of snap2face or skybook with the top bar. pls add the topbar back, it defines the app.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] jhw549:
once again I never even saw a top bar besides blank blue, is that what you guys are talking about?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Djay64:
how do i get the application on my facebook??????????????????????????????????????????????
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] varunb007:
new beta crashes when i switch tabs. still can't see friends. in fact, can't see anything other than my profile pic. i'm on sprint touch.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] dy2592:
Can someone just make a cab when and updated beta comes out. I think it would be much easier
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] kosmos5457:
About changing your ROM, I don't have much idea on where to start with changing the ROM you have. I think that the phone has to have something unlocked on it before you can start changing anything with it or the phone will result in being a paperweight. I think that Original ROM's should be fine. I guess that looking at those ROM's will be most similar to what you have now. There are other ones kicking about on here that remove certain programs, disable certain features and people can cook programs into a ROM to save you from having to install them later.

However, this is not the best thread to ask for advice on changing your ROM and I would be careful while considering changing the ROM and be sure of what your doing before rushing into anything.

Sorry I cannot be of any more help with this issue. Like I said earlier, who knows, another later release of this application might work for you.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] kosmos5457:
the topbar I am talking about is the little blue bar that stretches across my screen. The application as it was in beta version 6 had the blue bar across the top that had the word facebook in the same font as it is on the facebook site. The application would load full screen. I would not have access to the start menu until either pressing the home button on the phone or closing the application.

Now, with version 7, the little blue bar across the top is removed and instead of the application taking the whole screen up, I now see a start menu and the usual x button you see in many windows application to close the program. I preferred it the top bar in version 6, that's what I am writing about.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] ptyindian:
umm i think if you cant get it work then just chill out because it is not of any use of getting it work because there is almost nothing in the app and its not worth going through all the stuff to get it to work. There are already a lot of beta testers. I am not trying to be mean or anything but i am just saying its not worth getting this app yet as it is in the very primitive stages.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Djay64:
Nope thats cool, my problem isn't whether it works, as i haven't got to that stage yet, the problem is that i need to add the application on facebook, but the application can't be found on it, and the main problem is that usually these applications have something wrong when it comes to my pda, so if i can see what the issues are, i can sort them out prier to completion..... thats all
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] scotchua:
At this point, if you need it cabbed up for you, then it's probably best that you wait until there is workable beta. Right now i don't see a lot of benefit in having a bunch of different cabs of the beta's floating around.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] ptyindian:
here is how to see if you already have the application on facebook.

put ur mouse over the settings tab way at the top and then u see a drop down that says application settings click that and then in the application settings you will see another drop down that contains authorized apps click that and then in that list there you should see XDAFBPPC.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] ptyindian:
yeah i totally agree with you! for those who can not get the app to work or those who need a cab file just wait for a couple of days till we have a more stable and functional app it is not worth your time and our time trying to get the app working for you because the app is not at all useful at this moment. The opportunity cost is just not worth it.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] spac3m0nk3y:
Maybe this should have been a closed beta... there are too many newbish questions on how to do things. The focus should be developing the app and squashing bugs.

I created an account on Facebook, just to try this app and help with bug reports. I think it is coming along nicely.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] ptyindian:
yeah i agree also too many people reporting the same bug and for cornhela to read through all of these posts will take for ever so cornhela if you are reading this. Do you by any means want to make this a closed beta?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] knownboyofno:
I need to test this app!!! but if it would become a closed beta I am willilng to test I know enough to do so.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Djay64:
ah right... strange ..... how the heck did that happen? don't remember selecting it????

cheers.....
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] StyL3-Ivan:
i'm still been kicked out after the login page.. =(. anyone help?.. using HTC Diamond
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] daniel.bigred:
in my first post I was using the cab file that was created by mbarvian and it seemed to work fine but slow, with the 0007 beta, I have better response to the tab icon on the bottom but as mentioned by another user the "selected" icon looks like two QVGA icons instead. Not a major problem.

My friend status started to show (instead of random numbers in the previous version) after trying to open a contact from the Friends tab the app crashed. I tried running again but every time I open friends now the app crashes.

here's some more screen shots for resolution issues, I tried using the app in landscape but I get an unable to connect error.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] WizardN00b:
Yes sir, on a Wizard.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] :
i love it!!!

but do you think over time you can kind of blend it with the manila syle....

kinda like the htc diamond youtube application???

anyways keep up the good work...
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] cornelha:
Landscape did not cause the unable to connect error, in the errors.txt note the time and paste me the output. Thanks for the screens this helps me alot, seems my vga detection routine not working correctly
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] StyL3-Ivan:
anyone help???
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] cornelha:
You do understand that this is a community beta project, this means it "might" work or "might" not untill you give proper feedback. Details on giving feedback is littered all over this thread. Currently I am the only person who can help you here. So either you post your errors.txt or stop shouting
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] StyL3-Ivan:
Oh..i'm not shouting. :p

I'm juz asking if anyone met such prob and have ways to solve it.

Anyway, my error.txt is empty. hahaha.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] cornelha:
The app has been authorised to access your account ?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] StyL3-Ivan:
Yup. i follow the 3 post of this thread. It is added as desktop application in my facebook.

But i use my desktop computer to add the appz instead of using my Diamond.

Is tis the correct way?
