[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] gerlbaum:
Keep us posted, I want to do the same thing except with Windows XP. If you do get it figured out would you mind posting how you did it? Thank you in advance :)

The only advice I can give you is: If doing via bluetooth you need to make sure the program is looking at the correct COM port otherwise it will never "see" the gps.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] linkus:
you bet on it! if you manage to get it to work please post here also :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] mr-pill:
try gpsgate. that worked for me with TP + MbP
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] linkus:
Okey guys!

it was a long time since i wrote here, but i actually solved the problem!

as mr-pill recommended i used Franson GpsGate

I installed the program with the .CAB to my memmorycard not the internal storage.

after installation i went through the wizard and i chose only internal GPS not garmin or bluetooth.

After that you got the option how you whant to sync with the other units, i choose bluetooth, make sure you have you phone paired with you macbook.

the in you program hope for that it supports bluetooth GPS.

and your done!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] BLCollier:
I had some fun with GPS2Blue yesterday, but finally got it working. As well as getting all programs to look at the right port, you need to create an incoming bluetooth serial port on the phone for it to work - you can easily create an incoming port on the PC easily (you'd expect to want your phone to access services on the PC, not the other way round, right?), but as I understand it's not quite so easy on the phone.

Managed to find these instructions and got it working perfectly: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=499896&highlight=gps2blue

EDIT: This will work for all GPS applications that uses a serial GPS receiver, not just those that explicitly support bluetooth receivers (I got hold of some very old free software and it works fine). The bluetooth linkis handled by Windows/MacOS and all the app sees is a serial port.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] zaibaker:
Hello,

i spend many hours in order to find a way to make my Kaiser work, but i didn't find a solution :(.

My phone is always looking for a network, and finally he connect to nothing...

My Kaiser is Sim unlock... and my Sim work with SFR network.

Please help me!!

Because i start to be crazy about those hollow networks.

(I live in a big city in france, there is no problem to get the network)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] zaibaker:
HELP ME please!

I can't use my phone!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ChumleyEX:
is this SFR network a GSM network? Does the Sim work in other GSM phones?

I don't know anything about cell service in france.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] zaibaker:
Yes

Yes
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] kilrah:
Did you just get your Kaiser? Bought new or used? Might be the defective radio problem...
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] zaibaker:
No, my brother gave it to me.

When i try any Sim, the phone can't find the GSM Network SFR.

I can scan the GSM Networks, the phone find SFR, but he can't log in :(.

Maybe, how can i solve this problem so?

I just tried to go on HTC and get the 6.1 rom, but it's still the same thing :(.

Please help me to find a solution.

And thank you by the way for your replys.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] kilrah:
Does it do the same with a SIM from another operator and the related network?

That's what mine was doing when my radio broke, I could scan for networks but not connect to any. The phone was getting hot during operation as well. Only way is sending back to HTC, they replaced the whole mainboard.

How old is it? zhe problem was frequent on early units. Bad news is that if it's old it's most likely not under warranty anymore by now...
[General Topics] cenarius:
why all current and future htc devices come with low color tft screens (16bit/pix) while other companies which make inferior devices,made them with 18,22, and even 24 Bit/pix screens!!!!!!!!:mad:

at least i hoped that the next generation of htc ppc will have at least 18 bit /pix screens.:mad:
[General Topics] Bulldog:
Simple explanation where those missing pixels going: PROFIT MARGIN!!!!!! HTC is the fastest growing company in this industry... looking to the market share, they have not yet a real competitor( Samsung,Sony,Tohiba maybe starting to be closer) Be Frank the closest competitor they had was Aple therefore They have given alot of attention to UI in the last years to ketch up with Apple.

So clearly as long they DONT HAVE TO they will not spend more money to produce better devices..
[General Topics] hidden_hunter:
Have you used a Touch Pro (Raphael) or Diamond? The screens pretty amazing for a mobile device, realistically it's a phone not a photoshop workstation.
[General Topics] cenarius:
well did u know that:

O2 XDA Flame

Velocity Mobile Velocity 103

Gigabyte GSmart MS820

All had 18 bit /pix screens.

and that:

SoftBank 930SC Omnia

Meizu M8 miniOne

both had 24 bit/ pix screens

so HTC is falling behind without any dought.

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ajbopp:
Be aware that this will not install to a storage card. It goes to \Windows\facebook.exe. SO far doesn't seem to have a huge affect on system resources after caching several photos.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] jug6ernaut:
i found it works great over wifi or 3G, over edge its decent once its all loaded but the first load takes a while.

By the way.. if u have another language ROM... it wont install correctly.. It installs in 'Start Menu\Programs'

I have swedish... and It should install in 'Start-meny/program' ... no big deal, easy to change :)

But isn't there a function to synchronize your Facebook friends with your phonebook?

I think I saw that in a Youtube video somewhere??

Everything works on my xv6800 except my wall and my photos. The wall just gives me the winmo loading animation non-stop and my photos says that I have no photos (yet I do).

Shows a lot of promise, though.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ajbopp:
hiccoughs

After a promising start yesterday, things went downhill.

Late in the afternoon/evening I started getting processes stopping unexpected, completely unrelated to facebook. Things like Phoneweaver and shell. This morning it got worse. I had an unnamed process stop a couple of times.

Soft resets did not solve the problem, and generally there were several processes that failed to start properly.

In the end, I restored a backup from two days ago and all was immediately better. Just for kicks I have now re-installed facebook. I've had one process stop (shell) and another fail to start (Phoneweaver) so far, but in general it's working not as badly as it was when I first woke up today.

Is anyone else seeing issues of instability on their device after running facebook for awhile?

just installed on my new o2 ignito (Diamond), and all seems good!!!

Other than this, it's spot on.

Not bugs but on Touch HD

- Finger Scroll is horribly slow compared to any other app

- Does not auto rotate, but that's probably because I am using the HTC auto rotate thing

Is the Netflix app cab posted anywhere?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] dcmidnight:
Installed flawlessly on my 700wx running NightRangers 6.1 Sprint ROM. Launched OK. Got the "invalid api" error twice but was able to advance through them.

Some observations:

- Runs slowly but not terrible.

- Updating my status seemed to work fine.

- I have the same Inbox issue as others. Forever spinning wheel - 'no messages' shown in the background. I am going to leave it running to see if it is just trying to load/cache my inbox. FIXED

- Feeds and everything seem to be 12-18 hours behind, even when hitting refresh. This is a real issue IMO.

Anyway, looks like a good start as a pre-beta release but I hope 2&3 get addressed.

================================================================

Update: Hitting refresh when looking at 'status updates' gives me the api error again. Now it will show a couple of recent status updates but then there is a large gap of 12-18 hours back - skipping over a number of updates.

================================================================

Update: after running for 30 min or so my Inbox popped up. However it does not display correctly - or at least does not display as it does in FB.

If you have a thread going and

you are the last person to have replied

- in FB it will still show the name/pic of the friend you are messaging with. In this app it shows your name and pic. So if you are the last one to have replied to all of your message threads, it appears to just show your name/pic over and over. If you click on it, it will show the messages, but just doesnt display right in the inbox.

The 'Sent' box however does nothing. Does not update, does not refresh, does not show any sent messages.

I also wish when looking at your Wall and your status(es) you could see comments that people have left.

The app will not exit when closed. Opening task manager and closing it is the only way. But, I seem to be able to close the app and re-open it without having to log back in.

I'm running WM5 on a Motorola Q and I get the same problem, well, mostly the same. The error I get is: "Can't find 'facebook' (or one of its components). Make sure the path and filename are correct and that all the required libraries are available."

The error message is the same whether I start the app from the shortcut or from the exe.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] lifeuw19:
Running on my Sprint Touch Pro. Stock Rom. Seems to run ok, but... I can't "close" this app, and then reopen. I close it. It doesn't show up in my task manager. Then I try to reopen and it won't open.

It appears the only way I can reopen this app is to soft reset. Please tell me that's not the case. Am I missing something?

THANKS!

hmm i have not experienced this, you can close through the menu to "Log out" or use a 3rd party app like xbutton or quickmenu to close it.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] steveliv:
So from what i have read, this needs to be installed to the device, not My Storage or Storage Card. And then the facebook app is located in the windows directory. Is this correct?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] jug6ernaut:
if you dont have a WWE rom it will not install to the correct programs directory, so you will have to go to windows/start menu/ programs to find hte link

I've tried logging out. I've also just closed out and then actually ran Oxios Close apps to assure it's closed. It will "close" it, it just won't "reopen it". When I click on it to start, it shows "facebook" right in the top left hand corner where you'll see "start" on the start menu, then... nothing. It won't open. I can only open it after soft resetting it.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Adam Marcus:
I have successfully tested this on my Motorola Q9C and here are the things I've noticed:

1. Display fits perfectly. No glitches whatsoever.

2. The spinning windows mobile "loading animation" seems to stay going endlessly when you move to your "Home" tab. All other tabs seem to work. This loading glitch will persist even if you log out.

3. It's a little slow. I just hope that Facebook isn't going to wait for Windows 6.5 to release this. I hope they release both a PocketPC and Smartphone version because this is probably the cleanest looking Facebook app I've ever seen.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] jug6ernaut:
hmm that definitely seems to be a bug...probable dealing with the cached files. Try deleted the cached files and then try to load.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] npuk:
Yes, Invalid API key on HSUPA/HSDPA connection only, why ?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] dcmidnight:
The status updates just dont work for me for now. It seems to randomly update recent statuses while ignoring others. I had one just update that was current - but it replaced this persons previous status from two hours ago - whereas the FB 'status updates' page will give you a continuous listing. There are also too many gaps, there is one current update, then a 3 hour gap, then a few, then a 13 hour gap, then a few.

I think this program has GREAT potential though.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] htctoucher:
yeah just realizing there is quite a large delay for updates

cant wait for a new build or fix to this problem.. as its kind of important :D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] jug6ernaut:

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] TimD123:
Works for me so far.

Worked great for me on my HTC S640 (aka Iris) with its QVGA 320x240 screen running Windows Mobile 6 Standard (non-touchscreen).

Initial launch took a little while to load and when you move to another section of the app it loads the info for that section "on the fly" so it can take a while. Manually moved the launcher from the "Programs" sub folder; up one to the main program launch folder (aka the start menu".

Other then that, totally usable so far.

Man, am I ever glad that a decent FB app came out for Windows Mobile.

Also... I just noticed something else odd. I opened it, closed it, and now I can't click on my "start menu" afterwards. And it appears others are having these exact same issues over on ppcgeeks. http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showpost.php?p=753699&postcount=15

One other odd thing here. I can't open up Facebook from programs or from my program tab after I close it... however, I CAN open it up from the windows directory if I click the "facebook.exe" under windows directory.

I think I'm going to give up on this until all the bugs are fixed. It STILL won't start up after you shut it down. I literally have to do a soft reset, just to open up this app on my TP.

Also... the status updates does not up update, the last one that shows was 4 hours ago, yet I have a ton that have happened since then. Looks promising, but still has some work to do until it's ready to "work"... at least on the TP.

I think a few other people have this problem...

Installs fine, starts up, and the message "When roaming outside your home network, you may incur additional charges for data charges. Do you wish to use a data connection?" The problem is... that message pops up every 1/2 second continuiously! Its just a pain in the a$$!

I have used both .cab versions to no success. I tried forcing my phone from "Standard" to "Home Only" network. That actually works, so I feel that the others who have this issue are always roaming like me. I can't keep it on "Home Only" since I actually am roaming, and can't make calls that way.

So I guess it comes down to, is there a work around that message, or the question about if you accept roaming charges? Any suggestions or help would be a great help to me, and others I've heard having this problem. Thanks ya'll
