Just started using this app, it looks very promising and a big upgrade over the MS App! One question - I have installe the very latest from a couple of posts up (#789), I notice in my News Feed that certain messages that I see on my computer are not displayed -

Joe and 2 other friends like Something

Fred is now friends with Jack and Jill

Some statuses seem not to show up

I am also getting friends statuses that are playing all these facebook games, that I do not see on my desktop web access to FB (and I don't want to see them).

Are these known issues or do I need to set a setting somewhere? I checked the issues on the google site and did not see them, sorry if this is known but I am not an expert on facebook!

Keep up the good work!

Does anyone know why certain posts do not show up in the news feed? Is this a known problem? Just trying to verify the stability level of this app, looks very good otherwise but I would sure prefer to have a complete list in my news feed...thanks!
[Windows Mobile Software Development] joe_coolish:
I'm glad you like the application :)

As for the news feeds that show different things than the web version, this is known and is an issue with Facebook's Graph API. The Graph will display everything, even if you have hidden specific types of comments on the web version. Also, the web version's news feeds is defaulted to "What's Hot" sorting, and not purely chronological. Graph is chronological only.

The items that show up in the News Feeds tab are direct data from Facebook, so if something is missing, the issue needs to be brought to the attention of Facebook devs.

As for your error message that you posted, that looks like a threading issue. Some devices handle more threads than others. This is why WinMo programming is very hard. These kinds of crashes are really hard to handle. The best way to prevent these kinds of crashes is make sure you hit the Home button every once in a while and start from the beginning. It's a PITA but until I get that part solid, that's a good work around.

Let me know about any other issues that you have!
[Windows Mobile Software Development] awalt:
Thanks for the reply. In case I was not clear, I was comparing the Chronological sort on my desktop to the XDA Facebook app. That's where the entries seem to be missing.

I did some Googling on this issue, and a number of developers have noted the issue. If I understand what is going on, this link seems to indicate that if a user has all platform apps switched off in Privacy settings -> Apps -> Apps you use, on

their page

, then Graph API will not download their entries. Is that how you read this? If that is the case, then Graph API will become less and less worthwhile unless there is another way around this.

This doesn't seem very worthwhile, does it? A partial list of feeds ?
[Windows Mobile Software Development] joe_coolish:
Interesting! I've only read a little bit about the issue, and that is basically what I've come up with too. It's very frustrating to deal with FB's Graph. It is SOOOO inconsistent compared to actual FB data. There are lots of different areas where things like this have turned up.

Anyways, I feel that FB on a mobile should be about 4 things:

Quick status updates

upload candid shots from mobile

checkin to places on the net

get basic feed information while on the go

I don't think XDAFacebook is a replacement for the facebook webpage. I think it is an extension. There are a few areas that I'm working hard to incorporate into XDAFB, but there are several areas that are beyond the scope of this project. Surprisingly, I don't use facebook all that much. So, I rely heavily on the input from users as to what that scope should be. That is one of the reasons I feel this application has so much potential. The direction of the app is dictated by the users.

I'll continue to look into getting more information about the Graph and I'll see if there is anyway to get a bigger picture.

Thank you for your comments!

New version not working.....

hi

I've been using version 4.7 on mi T-mobile HD2 from that update the OS version (Dutty's v26 WM6.5.x) for about two weeks until yesterday, and was running smoothly, I received a notification that there was a new version and upgrade to 4.7.1 after that is not updating pictures, delete and reinstall the application and now I can not see friends or photos.

thanks in advance and sorry for my English (most google translator).

EDIT: After reset the application few times, is running fine.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] cajunflavoredbob:
Joe, I'm inclined to agree with him here. I got the update notification for it when I used it this morning. I've never seen more than the occasional error message while using the app, but now, I get them every time I'm using it after a few minutes. Viewing photos, comments, and wall posts will all give the error messages. I'm not nearby to upload the logs yet, though. Loading comments, even one of them, takes a very long time now. It's as if it just gets stuck on the loading screen. Going back to Home and then trying again, usually allows me to see the comment, but that's only if it doesn't crash before then. I'm going to manually roll back to the previous version for a bit.

Update Greek language for v4.7.1
[Windows Mobile Software Development] joe_coolish:
Hmmm... I'll have to take a look and see why there are so many errors. I don't think I touched the HTTP handling code, so that is very strange.

I went through the change logs and nothing was changed between 4.7 and 4.7.1 that would cause the increase in time-out errors...

Well, stay tuned, I'll work it out and have an update hopefully by the end of the day tomorrow!
[Windows Mobile Software Development] djdafreund:
Yeah, finally got my new Touch pro back in mail (other one h/w keyboard stopped working 2 weeks in.) and can play around and test the new version out!!! ;)

I would not agree with ya Joe about XDAFacebook not replacing facebook page. Only cause for ME personally, the facebook page is just horrible. Bad layout, can't do much with it, and XDAFacebook works fine, very customizable, and does SO MUCH. Give yourself a pat on the back!! Your too humble a man. LOL. It's really great for real. Thank you so much Joe!!!!
[Windows Mobile Software Development] m0nkeyman:
Have to say very pleased with new version have not had one real error. Apart from a problem when deleting stuff. Error pops up on the screen saying you can only delete xda Facebook stuff which is what I'm doing and program crashes. There is no error log and the post does get deleted. But I have to exit the program cos it just freezes.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] daisychick:
Been using this since 3.something and I've never gotten an error. I love it and think you should sell this to Microsoft for 10 million dollars and go buy an island.

The only problem I have ever had is that if I x out of the top instead of choosing exit from the menu, I can't restart the app. It tells me there's an instance already running. TP2 with stock 6.5 rom.

Also, a stupid question but, I have never been able to figure out how to add friends. I've googled the topic to death but still come up blank. Can someone point me in the right direction?
[Windows Mobile Software Development] mi.lli:
I also installed the new update when the app asked me to. but since then, nothing seems to work. i only see the app loading and loading and loading.... can't do anything since then! i have a htc touch pro 2

[Windows Mobile Software Development] Teej53214:
Hi,...

First off.. Thank you to the developers, authors, and everyone involved.. this is by FAR The best WM Facebook app I have found... I love that it has all the features and is very finger friendly on my Touch Pro 2 CDMA (but use as a GSM)... Thank you....

I have 2 things to mention to help improve functionality... One this is very minor.. but sometimes when I quit the program and then enter it again, it says there is another one running and I should close that one and restart it.. but there is not another one running... at least no visible to me.. I check the running programs to be sure... a restart of the phone always corrects this problem..

The other problem is this.. I LOVE the check-in feature... It locks on fast with the built in GPS and works well for the most part.. but I do run into a problem when I attempt to tag any friends that are with me... while it lets me see my friends and tag them.. there is never an option to be "done".. if I click the back arrow bt the name of my location once I am in the friend tagging part, it is an endless loop of choosing different friends and then showing the friends I am trying to tag... It does not give an option to post or let me go back to the main locations screen..... I can get there by going back to the app's home screen.. but then it never updates me status or updates the location.. if it is just me, and I do not tag anyone else.. this function works fine... My current work-around is to just tag myself and then log onto the website and add the others that way... But it would be awesome if I could somehow get past this problem while in the program... Anyways, again, thanks for all the hard work...
[Windows Mobile Software Development] Phhere:
Try to swipe left over the screen, this should bring you back to the checkin button ;)
[Windows Mobile Software Development] joe_coolish:
Ok, I'm going to be computer-less for the next couple of weeks. I just sent an update and I need to confirm that everything is working great. If there are any problems, post them in the next few hours or they won't get fixed till I get a new computer.

As for the App spam.... I know that it is annoying. That is something that Facebook needs to fix. I wish there was a filter for that, but as of now, there is no such thing. I'll look into things to see if there are any work arounds because I too find it super annoying.

Thanks and Enjoy!!

4.7.3 Beta Feedback

Hi Joe,

Great app!

Donation Confirmation number: 3YN62142HV165084F

Some feedback for you on 4.7.3 beta which I have been using for several days now on my HTC HD2

No stability problems

If I set a HOME page link and then delete it without replacing it with a new link, next time I load XDA Facebook, the deleted link has re-appeared

Swiping RIGHT brings up the SEARCH page, but swiping LEFT doesn't return to the HOME page. Should it?

If I select a FILTER on the NEWS FEED page and then REFRESH, the filter setting is discarded. I would prefer the filter selection to stay set.

I think this one may have been mentioned previously, but please can you check again to see if you can implement a filter to not show friends games updates?

Again, may have been mentioned before, but a Force GPS selection on PLACES-Checkin would be beneficial to overcome defaulting to CELL ID for slow GPS position acquisition.

Hope the feedback will be useful on your return.

More 4.7.3 Beta Feedback

On WiFi and fast (EDGE/3G/HSDPA) cell/mobile connections, 'News Feed' loads quickly, Places/Mine are displayed quickly, Places/Friends are displayed quickly. Places/Checkin finds location, displays 'Loading' and then list places found. Checkin to any of the listed 'Places' works as expected.

On slow (GPRS) cell/mobile connections, 'News Feed' loads slowly but OK, Places/Mine displays 'Loading', but never displays any data no matter how long I wait, Places/Friends displays 'Loading', then displays correct data, Places/Checkin finds location, displays 'Loading' and then list places. Attempts to Checkin to a displayed 'place' leads to an error message in a popup window, When OK clicked in the error message window, it crashes out of XDAFacebook.
