[Details]

Version: 1.2

Phone: HTC 7 Mozart (Telstra, Australia)

[/Details]

[Bugs]

#1 Messages don't refresh. I have to press windows button then go into application again in order to view new messages.

#2 Messages don't refresh even if I'm the one sending them

#3 Since messages don't refresh, I don't know whether vibrate function works at all.

[/Bugs]

[Comments]

So, overall i preferred the previous version which was working, while this one isn't really.... maybe i need to re-install? Anyone else with similar issues? But auto-sign in features on screen unlock is good otherwises

Or maybe it has something to do with the fact that my computer is on facebook and my windows live messenger on my computer is on facebook too? Is that possible? The version before that didnt seem to have any problems with those...

hey dudes, i just can't download FIM on my WP7 Mozart phone. There's just no download button, neither in ZUNE nor on the phone. Is it 'cause of the German marketplace? Any ideas?

thx
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] ameel:
it's not "download", it's "install". Also, i've had similar problems generally with the market place when trying to download apps to my phone. You need to get out of it and come back, maybe wait a few seconds without scrolling. it's just buggy. try a few times, it should work. or use the direct link.

Or try the direct link on your phone: http://social.zune.net/redirect?type=phoneApp&id=35bb6274-9df1-df11-9264-00237de2db9e.

You could use the same link on your desktop with your pc hooked up to your pc
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] cornholio1990:
Oh I did try several times, their is no install button either. I can only use the link to find FIM in Marketplace, if I try to use the search I cannot find it. I can neither download/install it at the Zune Desktop, nor at the Phone. I didnot have any problems like this with other Apps in the marketplace...
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] nok_fusion:
me either :/
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] stillbrad:
same here...I dont think it really exists. This is fake.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] blutz:
I have removed the app from the marketplace untill its fixed
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] blutz:
Fim v1.3 xap

removed, fim is now on the marketplace
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] Mobiplayer:
IDK if you're just joking, but Fim indeed exists. I have it loaded and running right now (the problem that I had with the black screen was just because I had Facebook Chat off in the Facebook web :o )

Regards
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] blutz:
this issue is also solved from 1.3, Fim will put you online if you forgot to do so on the web
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] lekki:
So what changes are we to expect in the new FIM?

Will I need to go back to the marketplace and download the all new FIM or will it just be an update?
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] voodooutt:
So far, this 1.3.1 version is working fine. No more black screen and chat is snappy. If I find more issues, I'll post them :)
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] nok_fusion:
when fim will be re-available on the market place ?
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] blutz:
depends on Microsoft testers, probably couple of days
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] nok_fusion:
ok thankx for the answer :)
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] Reziukas:
Excellent update, all functions work flawlessly. Observation: timestamp is positioned rather annoyingly, especially in landscape mode. Could it be moved, or maybe an option to turn it on/off?
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] blutz:
i might add on/off option in the future. meanwhile, will putting it on the right will be better?
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] lekki:
So is FIM back online now?
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] blutz:
yes, might take couple of hours till you see it world wide
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] blutz:
Fim v1.4 is now available on the marketplace

recent changes:

* fixed messages not arriving problem

* fixed black screen issue caused by being offline on desktop

* enter key to send message (replaces the none working send button)

* run under lock screen is now optional

* tap and hold (aka context menu) to clear chat windows or to close permanently

* group chat support

* input Scope keyboard (auto complete/correct etc)

[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] pencilcase:
great news :) still waiting for it to appear in Germany though .. still showing 1.2
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] blutz:
check the market place under Apps -> Social -> New, its under the name "Fim Facebook Chat"
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] pencilcase:
thanks, found it on http://wp7applist.com/app/3538/Fim+Facebook+Chat
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] nok_fusion:

[System]

HTC 7 Mozart (Telstra)

FIM 1.4

[/System]

[Issues]

1. Don't know if it's me or my contact, but he claims he was online, but FIM kept telling me he was offline, then online then offline then online every now and then. At some point response became slow.

2. Dunno what happened. At some point I tried getting on FIM and just blank screen without contacts. I checked my desktop, there's a lot of people on..

[/Issues]

[Attempted Solution]

1.Tried uninstalling and redownloading FIM, this did not fix issue no 2. I can't use FIM anymore

2.Restarting after re-installing seems to have fixed the issue. Don't know if it's actually related to any of these or it was something else...

[/Attempted Solution]

[Reflections]

I installed Fim 1.3 yesterday or the day before I think. I was very happy about it. When I saw Fim 1.4 today I was a bit hesitant, but thought "what the heck" and now kinda regret that :( hope there's a fix soon

[/Reflections]
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] Mclovin1001:
Just installed it on my HTC 7 Trophy and works fine. Thanks
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] ameel:
what's in 1.5? Any update log?
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] goldenpipes:
Yeah I second the changelog!?
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] blutz:
v1.5 added new status bar to show glimpse of notifications, typing and more in the future
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] ameel:
Any chance that vibration only occurs when:

(1) receive message under locked screen

(2) receive a message from someone on whom the application is NOT focusing

as opposed to phone vibrating every time someone messages me even while i'm chatting with them - which is a bit redundant from my pov (maybe some people might disagree)

cheers
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] elgorbo:
Works great on my HTC Surround.

Would be nice for text to reflow on landscape. My chats stay at portrait width when I rotate the screen.

Any plans to write a GTalk client? I would figure most of the work is done since its using the same protocol... ;-)
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] zuifon:
Very good application.

Found a little bug : in the contact list letters like é or ô are supported for my contacts but not for my own name

Hope it will be push notifications and multi Facebook accounts in the future.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] Marvin_S:
Wow this is great! Very usefull, do you plan to add in sending messages as well? Because this is not possible within the os right? Only writing on somebody wall i believe. Would be great if somebody is not online and you want to say something without writing on the persons wall.

Or maybe scrolling to the left to have a browserscreen. (fake multitasking, in app multitask)

Thanks for your effort, cant wait till my phone comes ill install this straight away!
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] aaronhak:
shalom

acchhhhhiiiiii kol hacavod zeh nerah meuleeehh
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] blutz:
it is possible within the os, so for now the answer is no :)
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] blutz:
toda gever :)
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] ameel:
Hey blutz any chance for push notifications? Love 1.5 so far :D would rather not have to open the app every time so see whether i got a message. I know we're all getting demanding on the forum, but that's only because you're doing a great job :D

I'm sure everyone appreciates your work!

Thanks
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] eric2k:
hmm

what did 1.6 change?
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] blutz:
Fim v1.7 is out there

* added sound for new messages

* added friend lists support

* improved landscape support

* previous conversations view is now optional

* other bug fixes
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] sketchy9:
Blutz, great job as always. I and everyone here really appreciate your hard work. I suggested it earlier, but do you think you could add the changelog to the first post of this thread? We're already on page 11 of the thread and it will become more and more difficult fo find the changelogs buried somewhere. If it were in a standard location, I'm sure everyone would be able to find it more easily. Just a thought. Thanks again for the app!

-R
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] blutz:
As bots, bloggers and other forums tend to copy & paste the first post, I'm keeping it clean with general info about the app, the change log is just redundant endless software evolution for that matter. Maybe I should have reserved the second post for that, but it is hopeless now

beside, most of the changes are in-your-face, so just use the latest version and enjoy :)
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] Dizmatic:
Nice. I have to grab this. Thanks.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] dov74:
Thanks for the update!
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] chizzwhizz:
This has probably been mentioned before but it would be nice to have toast notifications for this app. Also would be nice if it didnt have to sign in each time screen unlocks.

I do love this app and people are always amazed when i tell them i'm chatting with them from my phone. Keep up the good work!
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] blutz:
there is a run under a locked screen option that keeps you logged in
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] dcsmaniatico:
Problems with text

sometimes I have to close the chat with the person and then open it up again in order to see what they wrote to me or what i wrote to them because it is not displayed. Usualy happends when I am chatting with another person and I get a messege when i got to see the messege it is not displayed....love the app have it for years in my WM.........would what this to run as awsome as that one
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] Tim.Smith:
How do you find that option?
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] blutz:
scroll the login screen
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] wwfc:
Even with run under lock screen checked I still have to login every time :conf: Samsung Omnia 7 using WiFi. The app is great, its just annoying having to log in everytime I lock and unlock the phone.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] blutz:
the feature is 100% working. are you using latest fim version?

are you aware that wifi might not stay on under a locked screen? (so sometimes need to sign in again)
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] GlamSlam:
Hello my friend. I speak for all French people or European people with very bad English but this app doesn't work since the start in 3g because many operator don't accept connection of you use.

Its very sad because your app is very simple and cool.

Its possible to you to resolve this problem?

I know that wonder reader since update of last week create this same problem and resolve that after an other update. Maybe tell there where is the problem?

Thank you again and good luck!
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] blutz:
do you get any error messages from FIM?

can you side load apps? i want you to test something...
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] GlamSlam:
Your app said: "No Internet Access, Please Try Again"

If i continue to connect i see my conversation, but in the top your app said "INTERNET CONNECTION LOST. RETRYING..."

And it's not possible to talk...
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] blutz:
can you (or any one else had connection issues with fim) side load the XAP inside the attached zip, let me know if its any better
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] GlamSlam:
I don't have jailbreak my phone, but i try that!

EDIT: Sorry but i have problem with ChevronWP7 he think i'm not connect my photo to my computer or Zune don't launch and i don't have WindowsPhone folder in my registry...
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] blutz:
did you follow all this steps? (emailing/running the cert and changing the reg key?)
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] GlamSlam:
Yes i Do that, i give this Xap to french community to try if it's good or not...
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] blutz:
xap for sideload replaced to version 1.7.3
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] blutz:
Push Notifications Anyone?

* Coming Soon *

Please read carefully:

* To enable push notifications check "Push Notifications" in settings (scroll down to see this option), upon exit via back button you will be prompt to start it or not. upon tomb stoning (exit via windows button) push notifications will start automatically.

* Push notifications will stop next time you start the app. (no need to sign in)

* Notifications that will be received: Chat messages, Facebook notifications and new inbox message indicator.

* FYI, Push notifications are being sent from a back-end server and not by Facebook, this might cause some suspicion from Facebook side, that will ask you to approve the log-in from the server's location (Arizona, USA). Please approve it in order to make push notifications work.

* Max time for push notifications is 3 hours and sometimes even less, then you have to restart it.

* Don't count on push notifications that much, too many factors have to work at once (Facebook server, Microsoft push server, Fim back-end server, your network, your device) sometimes they just don't.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] daleski75:
Is 1.8.1 going to be put onto the market or is this a side load only version?
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] xchuiix:
Me ---> Zune to get it...!
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] mark andrew:
Wow. Thats amazing. I can't wait anymore. :D

Thanks for sharing. . .
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] nok_fusion:
it Will be available in the market place soon:confused:
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] blutz:
yes, it is now included in the pay version of Fim that is in the marketplace

http://social.zune.net/redirect?type=phoneApp&id=2369ffdc-b30a-e011-9264-00237de2db9e
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] daleski75:
Just brought the app and facebook push notifications do not work and it also locked my account out as well. Done some digging around and think I might have found the cause.

1. Normal sign in works fine

2. Push notifications sign you in to a server in arizona

3. Facebook see this as a security breach (my account is in the UK)

4. Facebook then locks you out and you have to go through security checks to unlock your account
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] blutz:
as written in the post above, if you approve the Arizona log-in and then try to start push notifications, they will work
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] daleski75:
I have approved the arizona login from facebook but it is still not working.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] blutz:
will have a look, try again in couple of hours
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] pencilcase:
Hi,

just got it, working fine for me after having approved the arizona server.

However I noticed one or 2 things..

1. ü / ä / ö do not seem to be recognized in the push notifications (probably others too)

2. If you start push notifications multiple times (was testing) the notifications will also come multiple times for the same message.

can someone reproduce this?
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] blutz:
1. will be fixed

2. are you using the sideload version?
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] tsjDEV:
Hello,

I want to use FIM, but if I want to login with my facebook-account, I only recieve the message, that my combination of email/password is incorrect, but everything is correct with the data...

Can anyone help me?
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] daleski75:
Can the developer also confirm if we need to tap on the push notification each time we want to use it and then quit the app or we just press the windows key and it does it for us right away?
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] pencilcase:
hi, no the marketplace pay-version
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] blutz:
ok, thanks for reporting
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] blutz:
its going to be a bit different in the next version but for now push notifications is started a. manually, if you click the "start push notifications", wait for confirmation and then exit the app b. if you checked "start push notifications on exit", push notifications will be started if you sign-in then exit (windows button, back button, doesn't matter)

push notifications is stopped, when you re-launch the app.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] daleski75:
Thanks for that :)
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] blutz:
should be ok now
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] FiyaFleye:
Just bought the paid version for two reasons

1. You deserve contribution for your dedicated work, not only to WinPhone, but also your WinMo work... This community is lucky to have members like you

and 2. because I'm eager to test these push notifications... I'll be keeping a closer eye here as well...
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] blutz:
thanks :)

btw, updated to push version is on the way to the market..
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] xThe Enforcer:
I'm surprised they don't have FB Chat on the FB app like the iPhone has...
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] blutz:
don't be.. windows mobile facebook app from Microsoft never got it.. even android only got it few weeks ago
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] FiyaFleye:
Also, I would just like to request the ability to auto sign in and access the settings from within the contact list

Sent from my HD7 using Board Express
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] xThe Enforcer:
I wonder why. Couldn't be that hard to ad... Maybe you can work out a deal with them! Lol

@blutz

i have the same problem. I can´t login with my account. My PW don´t have any Umlaute like ä,ö,ü or something like that.

Run under Locked Screen doesn't work

Hi,

I am using the Paid version 1.10 with notifications. How many times I try with the Run under locked screen option checked. After I get to the friends list and then if I press the Windows key and go back to home screen and come back to FIM, it is is login screen again. What should I do to work this properly. I tried with WIFI, Cellular Data and all methods. Please help me on this.

Regards,

Francis.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] FiyaFleye:
running under a locked screen doesn't mean multitask... That simply means that if the lockscreen comes up, the program won't suspend... If you exit out of it, whether its via the back button or windows key, it's going to restart from the login screen...
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] vagabond1:
I'm dumb guys. Everything works now. Must have been MSFT's servers being down. Sorry :)

Amazing app! (Paid version btw)
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] FiyaFleye:
This has been quiet lately, any news of progress? Really looking forward to permanent push notifications...
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] daniel_lfc:
I can't even log in. It says my email and password combination is wrong and I should try again later, but it's been a month now. It works or my friend on my HD7, just not me.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] stylopath:
@daniel_lfc: Log into Facebook on their Website - you will probably have to reactivate your account because facebook sometimes recognizes the fim client (and especially the fim-server that is used for push notifications) as an unauthorized login.

After reactivating your account, you are asked if these login attempts are yours - if you select "yes" you can login via fim afterwards. If you select "no" fims login attempts will be blocked by facebook.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] daniel_lfc:
What do you mean 'reactive my account'? How do I do that?
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] stylopath:
Facebook should ask you to do so - if you can log into facebook without being asked for unauthorized login attempts/ reactivation then this is most probably not the cause of your problem.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] FiyaFleye:
I had to hard reset my phone, and now I can't find the Fim I paid for with push notifications on the market... What happened to it?
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] nok_fusion:
the app doesnt't work fine anymore for 3/4 days,when i send a message to a contact on fim,i don't see it send it,i have to close the window of the contact & re-open it to see my message posted,can u fix it ?
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] V1ViD:
This is also happening to me.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] nat45928:
same here. but messages you send are still going through. you just cant see them.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] blutz:
working to fix this..
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] nat45928:
any idea on a time frame?
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] cris_rowlands:
So, just to check, whilst you are finding a fix have you removed it from the marketplace or something?

I can find it in the marketplace, your download link still works, except there is no download button in the zune software, it wont let me download FIM & I cant find it when I search :'(
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] irispen:
i think he just remove it from the market
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] blutz:
whats the point leaving a non working app in the marketplace?

Fim 1.11.1 for sideloaders

Unfortunately Facebook have tighten up their security, which caused problems for Fim.

Trying to get things back on track, here is the new Fim version for you sideloaders..

since WP7 is a very limited system for 3rd party developers, to keep up with the new security enforces Fim now uses back-end server for connections. The back-end server is located at Texas, USA, so if facebook asks you to, you will have to approve this location in order to use Fim.

I will probably get Fim back to the marketplace in few days, meanwhile will love some feedback from the sideloaders.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] stylopath:
My Feedback: It's even worse now. I Installed your version, sideloaded it. Environment: Unlocked Samsung Omnia 7, 3g+ and Wifi

Result:

Login works - but after login I get a "Internet Connection Lost. Retrying"-Message

Sending Messages doesn't work - It's not just that i don't get my sent messages displayed (like it was before), but the Messages don't even arrive at the recipents computer (tested it with 2 different recipents)

Receiving Messages - My Handy rings when Messages are received, the Conversation between me and the sender is opened, but i can't read any text.

Hope that helps as feedback...

[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] blutz:
I replaced the file to 1.11.1 coz i had a little glitch, not sure it solves your problem, but give it a try
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] FiyaFleye:
Any way to resolve my question...?
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] stylopath:
@blutz: Version 1.11.1 didn't bring any changes here - still the same behaviour.

@FiyaFleye: AFAIC the Application has been taken from marketplace because it's broken ATM (why should anyone want an application that doesn't work?).

When the App is working again you will surely be able to install the (bought) version via the marketplace as you're used to - so don't panic :)
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] blutz:
Older version of Fim is not working, so it was removed from the marketplace.. you will be able to redownload once i find a way to make it work.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] blutz:
except the no-go from Germany, over 20 downloads and no feedback? does it work for you guys? should i post to the marketplace?
