Dear Joe, I have tried with my HD2 which installed ROM ELEGANCIA ROM Series|27 Sep.|V5 New|23138|21916|. The Facebook XDA program has an error when access Feeds or Profile. The error says "An unexpected erro has occurred in XDAFacebok.exe...... Please install NETCFv35.Messages.EN.wm.cab.........."

I'm sure that this ROM has already installed the NETCFv35 in it. Do you have an idea to solve this problem?
[Windows Mobile Software Development] zinconnu:
Works on WinMo 6.1, on a QVGA device?
[Windows Mobile Software Development] joe_coolish:
Hi everyone!

Ok, I have a pretty good list of stuff to work on. I'll try to get as much requested done as possible!

As for the Unknow Error when trying to log in, use the Web Login in the supplied hotfix. Also should fix the ChangeType error.

Let me know!
[Windows Mobile Software Development] zinconnu:
No answer for me? :D
[Windows Mobile Software Development] joe_coolish:
oh, sorry :)

idk, i havent tested it but i dont see why it wouldnt
[Windows Mobile Software Development] mikeinashed:
Uninstall, soft reset, reinstall. Worked for me!
[Windows Mobile Software Development] joe_coolish:
was that with the new install?
[Windows Mobile Software Development] mikeinashed:
With B3.5.1 - it installed automatically to upgrade beta 3 and then gave the error listed about about netcf 3.5. Worked fine after a reset and reinstall.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] ToddeSwe:
That fixed my problem :) Thanks!
[Windows Mobile Software Development] joe_coolish:
Sweet! Now on to the suggestions! Oh, and if you haven't already, follow on twitter :) I'm posting goodies there more frequently since I can do it from my phone.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] ToddeSwe:
i would've like to be able to answer my notifications, and to see the whole message first of all. Then i would like to be able to click on url's to open them eg YouTube links with YouTube player and so on.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] lantern20:
thanks for the great app. i would really like photos.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] billennium:
Thank u soooo much

im wondering y fb them selfs cant make a working app for wm. nice work an i cant wait to see this app completed. thank u once again. i wish i knew how to make these apps i would make tons of things. hopefully once i switch to hd7 from hd2 next month i dont have any more fb problems.:D
[Windows Mobile Software Development] jaysonic91:
Another confirmation that the ChangeType error has been fixed. Great job joe.

Just a query, how exactly do you refresh the News Feed?

Also, when you view your Inbox, is there any way to open a message or group of messages to read through them all?

Looks really good, much better then the official app. I think once you get it all running smoothly, fix up a few of the graphical things and it'll be one of the best apps on WM. Well done, big thanks to you.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] f3lixc:
actually didnt fix for me "/

im using core cell series WWE.

iv tried installing app + soft reset + installing hotfix = same error

anyone else have this app working with CORE CELL ROM?

EDIT: ima noob dont judge me lol works fine was apparently putting in the incorrect email address :D
[Windows Mobile Software Development] bratboo:
Hi!

Just wondering if others have this kind of problem, I'm using my stock keyboard every time I backspace this thing happened on my post though in FB App the special character didn't show. I'm using Omnia 2 btw!

Thanks!

Crash

Hello.

I want to try this,but I cannot get it worked.

It crashes all the time while attempting to login.

'.',hexadecimal value 0x00,is an invalid character

Maybe it is somehow solved here,but for reading so many pages here is in my time managemant impossible and searching doesn't work from some reason.

Thanks.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] joe_coolish:
Thank you for all the requests! I've compiled a list and will work with those for beta 4!

Still let me know if there are any problems with the new login :)

FB is... Well not run how I'd like it to be run. And Windows Mobile is a "dying" platform. There is no reason for them to support us. I know, it sucks... But that's why I'm here!

Refresh News Feeds by going home then reclick on it. It queries FB every time you load it. There was a 1 min refresh but that had problems. It will be re-added soon

lol, don't worry. Same thing happens to me all the time :)

:confused: That's.... Ummm, and interesting feature :D I've never seen that before. I would assume no, but does that happen in any other program? I'll look into it :)

Can you send me a screen shot of the error message? Or could you copy the whole message to my computer?

Thanks :)

Error skin

Hello, first good job, finally a facebook to WMO that looks like something.

I get an error from the start by putting mrhayami_skin.zip.

The application opens but the bar even when alpha is not displayed, the header remains on the base.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] JRM.joaquin:
Thanks for the FB...seriously that default fb for winmo is an absolute epic fail.

It works great on mine.

For people who are experiencing any errors please reupdate your NET.CF maybe that's where the source of the problem.

I am looking forward for more updates. I would really like to see UPLOAD PHOTOS. Please enable that feature as well as View Photos.

Keep up the great work!
[Windows Mobile Software Development] joe_coolish:
Did you unzip the pictures? also (good thing you brought this to my attention) is the zip file still in the resources folder? I think that might be the problem. it is an oversight on my part. I will fix that for the next release. until then dont keep the zip in the resources folder :)

yes, me too! and thank you for the feedback :) Pictures shouldnt be too difficult so hopefully it works out!
[Windows Mobile Software Development] jaysonic91:
joe, how about with the refresh you do a similar approach to what iPhone is using, with the scroll upwards when at the top to refresh. Or add another button on the top right to refresh. Auto-refresh is a good idea too, but make it optional as some people may not want to continue incurring data charges automatically.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] bratboo:
Hi I found the bug about the special character posted in FB when I backspace, It was actually my ROM who messed it up. Sorry to bother anyway! :D

More Power to XDA FB app. btw are you also going to put an image icon to be shown on FB it self when you post using XDA FB app? Like when you posted via Mobile there is a Mobile Phone Icon on FB same as iPhone :D
[Windows Mobile Software Development] joe_coolish:
I think we have a good idea in the works that is something similar to the iPhone. We'll see how it goes, but I'm thinking auto-update is out. Too much of a hastle!

Phew! Good to hear! And yes, that will happen once I stop being lazy and add the icon to fb :D So... adding now!

p.s. if you haven't liked the XDAFacebook, here's the link!

skin error

I put the unzipped folder on my SD card and I just copy the image files in the resources folder. Is this the right method? :confused:
[Windows Mobile Software Development] TomasNM:
Here is the problem...

The text is standart errormessage,but in slovak language,so it will be no problem hope(the important is english).

Details:

XDAFacebook.exe

XmlException

There is an unclosed literal string. Line 3, position 45.

v: System.Xml.XmlTextReaderImpl.Throw(Exception e)

v: System.Xml.XmlTextReaderImpl.Throw(Int32 res, String arg)

After restart appears the first error in this post again.

I have reinstalled NCF3.5,also NCF3.5.messages etc.no success.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] raja'i:
very nice application

plz accept my feedback

- the home button at the top is not finger friendly at all, especially when u r not using HD2, my mobile is xperia x1 with 3 inch screen

- there should be a back button when u view any story from ur feed

u shouldnt press the home button then go back to feed, then trying to locate where u were again

- the feeds stop downloading at certain degree, it cant show any more feeds after certain number

- i dont know if its complete or not, but messages are broken, the program downloads the messeges, but u cant press at any of them "u cant open any one"

and its a little bit lagy there

- photo download should be faster

- i have abt 220 friend

when i opened the friend tab,the tab opened normally at the first time, then it gave me out of memory exception error and exited the program

afterwards , i couldnt open anything, dont know if it will go when restarting the device, ps i have abt 60 mb of free ram, it should do fine

hope that i've helped
[Windows Mobile Software Development] darkowler:
Refresh Fixed?

the biggest problem i have with the face book app built it wm 6.5x built in to the hd2 is refreshing, ofter u must log out to get any updates, is that fixed in this beta, also will it affect the hd2s contacts facebook update ability?
[Windows Mobile Software Development] sddurand:
+1 on the poor Home button placement. Could you possibly use fo the soft keys in the menu bar. When on the home screen the softkey says "exit", as it should. After opening any of the other screens that could change to "home". That would leave room for a top right "back" arrow.

By the way I'm really looking forward to a finished product. Outside of my comments above I really like what I see. Great work!!
[Windows Mobile Software Development] joe_coolish:
Hmmm... What version are you using? I'm assuming Beta 3.5.1. It probably has something to do with different language contants aren't working well. Have you tried the alternate login in Hotfix 1?

Ok :)

- the home button at the top is not finger friendly at all, especially when u r not using HD2, my mobile is xperia x1 with 3 inch screen

Very true. I'm going to redesign how to navigate the pages. This will be fixed! I appologize for not making it as finger friendly to begin with :o

- there should be a back button when u view any story from ur feed

u shouldnt press the home button then go back to feed, then trying to locate where u were again

Sometimes there is a backbutton, and if there is, it will be at the top of the list. However, this also will be fixed with the new navigation ideas I'm going to implement.

- the feeds stop downloading at certain degree, it cant show any more feeds after certain number

Yes, that is the latest 25 items. I will implement the loading of past events, but I first need to figure out how that will affect memory management. Then I will implement it.

- i dont know if its complete or not, but messages are broken, the program downloads the messeges, but u cant press at any of them "u cant open any one"

and its a little bit lagy there

It is not implemented yet. It's actually a problem with Facebook not giving ALL of the data via the Facebook Graph. I can get all the data via REST, but I don't want to support 2 things, so I'm waiting on the completion from their end. Sorry :(

- photo download should be faster

That all depends on your connection speed and FB's server. I'm using raw HTTP calls (no WebBrowser or any other object). The only thing faster would be using raw socket calls, but the speed increase would be in milliseconds. But I will look into how things are downloaded and see if I can improve anything.

- i have abt 220 friend

when i opened the friend tab,the tab opened normally at the first time, then it gave me out of memory exception error and exited the program

afterwards , i couldnt open anything, dont know if it will go when restarting the device, ps i have abt 60 mb of free ram, it should do fine

Hmmmm.... I have ~600 friends and I've downloaded all of their pictures. One thing that TOTALLY erks me about WinMo is that even though you have the extra RAM, one application can't use more than 32 mb. So, independent of what phone you have, the RAM usage will be limited to the same thing. I'll look into more efficient RAM usage, but it's the whole trade-off, caching images for speed. I'll figure this out :)

hope that i've helped

Thanks! You have :)

You can refresh the data by leaving the Feeds and clicking on it from the home screen. This will be fixed/changed in the next release!

Thank you for your comments. Sorry if I missed anyone. Busy day... Long story. Family drama. The whole shabang!
[Windows Mobile Software Development] bratboo:
Hi!

Just want to ask if there is another work around your XDA as when I tried using other peoples theme your app suddenly gotten darker unlike the Microsoft FB still have the same looks. If none, its fine :p

Thanks
[Windows Mobile Software Development] joe_coolish:
ok that's not normal. what version of win mo are you using? have you had the same effect when you tried other versions?
[Windows Mobile Software Development] bratboo:
It was Kenchan's Android Theme, http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=630671. No big deal though I can revert back to original theme, just currently using this theme on my omnia 2.

On other theme with dark themes yes, but on normal theme the app is fine.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] TomasNM:
What do you think,alternate login and Hotfix?

I didn't found anything about.

I am using v3.5.1 actually,but same errors appears also on older versions.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] osbrial:
Hi. I install in my Omnia2 the Beta 3.5.1 cab and 3.5.1 AD cab, and thw two versions have error when I run the Program.

Yeah sorry, I needed to have posted the hotfix on google. But anyways, here is the link to the hotfix

Question!

Hi, does this app also work on full-qwerty phones (non-touch, WinMo 6.5 Standard)?

I tried installing version 3.5.1 on a Samsung Omnia B7330. The installation went smoothly but when I run the app, there are errors. "An unexpected error has occurred in XDAFacebook.exe"

Thanks.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] ToddeSwe:
PLEASE don't appologize... we should be thanking you for making this for us.

You make it and we test it and report back to you so you can improve and fix problems. I for sure is thanksful for this, and as long as someone does not pay for something You should never appologize for some faults or problems.

Just my humble thoghts!
[Windows Mobile Software Development] After_Forever:
I totally agree.

And thank you for your time and effort! Looking forward to the new features.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] osbrial:
Also for me. It´s the same error.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] pvdven:
Keep up the good work

Thanks for al work you already put into this program. Keep up the good work and I hope version 1.0 will be ready soon.

I'm waiting for an option to upload photo's.

Just made a $ 5.00 donation as a token of appreciation.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] osbrial:
Its the same error for me in Omnia2
[Windows Mobile Software Development] jaysonic91:
Have you installed the HOTFIX. See if that fixes your unexpected error. :)
[Windows Mobile Software Development] joe_coolish:
Thank you for your kind words :) Yeah, I get caught up in the project and beat myself up sometimes when I don't see obvious things.

BUT! I did get swipe working :) So now instead of clicking the back item, you can swipe right and you'll go back :) It works pretty good too! Can't wait to release it to masses, see what everyone thinks!

Thank you for your feedback!

Thank you very much! :D

I'm finishing up a Sense UI themed set of controls to handle menus and configurations and whatnot. I got a lot of it done today, so now I can start making the custom upload forms and then photo uploading should be a GO! This seems to be the number one feature that everyone wants, so it's at the top of the list!

like jaysonic91 said, try the hotfix. It should fix the error of this.

As for Non-touch devices, this app currently doesn't work. I will work on a non-touch version once i'm done with the touch version.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] raja'i:
I agree

we are very thankful for ur efforts

this program has a great potential

we are here to help

waiting for ur next version

thanx alot
[Windows Mobile Software Development] osbrial:
Ok many Thanks for info. The hotfix don´t work also in Omnia2 . Waiting for your other version. Many thanks for your work.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] fwt:
+1 for that statement
[Windows Mobile Software Development] bratboo:
What ROM are you using? I also have omnia 2 and its working perfectly with Official JH1 and Energy ROM.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] Neo84:
great program!

the only thing I don't like so far is the startup time of ~15secs on my hd2.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] TomasNM:
What should the hotfix actualy do? It cannot remember password,WebLogin starts only in some(perhaps PIE) window,where I cannot see whole page(perhaps due to my VGA res.). Using arrowkeys(God bless you,D-pad) and killing some brain cells I successfully login to the facebook(perhaps I hit some correct link below visible area).

When i hit Ok(close) it puts me back to login area of FB app.

What should I do now in order to use this FB app?

Is there something more hidden for me?

Hi all, first of all thanks to the author for making an alternative Facebook app.

I just installed the app (the hotfix too) but I receive an error when trying to start it

My device is a Samsung i637, Windows mobile 6.1, .net CF 3.5

Thanks in advance for your help.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] da robat:
yeaahhhh i just got it to work dude..and i love it

its already far superior to any other facebook app out there, but if this gets even better and you get the things that dont work yet to function, then your the god!! :DD
[Windows Mobile Software Development] joe_coolish:
thanks :) yes the startup does take a while. this will be fixed before 1.0. but while in beta, there are diagnostics that happen :(

oh my! yes the login images didn't compile into the hotfix. the login button is invisible but can still be pressed. its right below the input box on the right side. the check box also lost its images. press over it once and it should save your login info. I reincluded them so that won't happen in the next release. thank you for the heads up!

thanks! that's the goal!

thank you! if I can get facebook to accept my images the I'll release the next version
[Windows Mobile Software Development] mettare:
Thank you for your reply. I'd be looking forward to use your great app. God bless! :)
