App suggestions

Saying the app is good, I think now doesn't really mean too much :) (it's really the best for wm), but I'd like to add some more suggestions.

1. You told me in the earlier versions to remind you later to put an option to where the app carries you when you touch a profile (info=default, or wall ,..) that would be nice

2. I really like the new feeds filter :P

3. The ability to delete posts would be nice

4. The kinetic scroll is smooth now but I think it could be better if you tunned it a little bit how it behaves ( it seems sometimes it scrolls a little bit fast and some times a little slow)

5. I support earlier replyes about showing old notifications.

6. The text when you write longer status' goes out of the textbox.

I'm attaching the new Albanian translation with the new buttons, and a screenshot for the textbox problem.

keep up the good work ;)

Edit: P.S. You meaby forgot to update the link for the app thread in About menu, and I don't know how the app handles the image cache but I changed my profile picture in my pc and the app shows the old one (doesn't update) until I clear the cache.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] henryblake:
Sometimes ist seems to take longer for loading ..... the 3.X versions were faster ...... it is only a feeling, i have not used a stop-watch ...... but your work is still really great!!

Thanks, Henry
[Windows Mobile Software Development] joe_coolish:
I will look into what's up with this. Could you send me the error txt? thanks :)

there should be a thumbnail once you select an image and before you upload the image. Is there not? As for making a thumbnail in the list view, this would be a pretty hard thing to do AND keep the scrolling smooth. What desktops do is create a file called thumbs.db or thumbs.dll in the folder and so when Explorer enters a folder, it looks for the thumbs file and loads those.

Unfortunately Windows Mobile does not implement this, so I would have to build the whole system from scratch (which is kinda beyond the scope of this project)

But who knows! Maybe if I get bored? :)

Yeah, it's the same with the web client. I'll make a way to view your last requests if that is something that people want.

lol, Facebook follows this thread and watches the project. If I make a way to send messages, they'll patch the hole or some how make it so we can't send messages. I've thought of a few tricks thou, so we'll see how they work. I say this because that's what happened with the internal login. I've had to change it 3 or 4 times because of breaking changes FB did on their end. I might do something like open up touch.facebook.com in the browser on a compose page. But idk if that's really the best solution.

A good app for getting notifications is Meltwater's FBTabs. I'm going to be integrating with FBTabs in upcoming versions, but the best experience with push notifications will come from his app.

Yes, I'm planning on uploading and playing videos (eventually)

Thank you very much for the complements! :)

I will work on implementing that in the settings menu. Thank you for reminding me :)

You can delete posts, but there is a pretty big caveat. I updated the new features post about how to delete posts and what the restrictions are.

As for the textbox, I totally thought I got that fixed! I'll look into it and fix it :)

Thank you for the reports!
[Windows Mobile Software Development] joe_coolish:
Hmmm, I'll look into it. If you want, the 3.x versions can still be downloaded and installed. Just click no on if you want to upgrade. If you do notice a big difference then I'll have to look into what's up.

I think what the difference between the 3.x and the newer 4.x releases that is making the big difference is that in the 3.x releases, I was storing all of the cached images in memory. This caused ALOT of problems, so I stopped. I have some ideas about how to make things go faster, I just want to get all of the functionality built before I work on speed.

I have only recently updated this and GPS Mod Driver and it seems one of these is causing a battery drain. I am posting this in both threads to see if anyone else has noticed battery drain to help me figure which.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] Phhere:
But what is with people, who can't use Meltwater's FBTab, like me? It would be great if you could integrate it into your app :)

app closes when trying to upload photo

hi joecoolish

so i select on upload photos, browse for the photo (in storage card), once i locate the photo i'd like to upload and click (touch) on it the app closes, no error message, just closes. tried this twice and both times, app just closes automatically...

i went into the xdafacebook folder, and found this error log, it was dated today so must be the generated error log...

Maybe you could take a look at the images of "Deus Ex Human Revolution" page on FB and see if it's maybe their images that crash the app. I have a feeling the problems started when I "liked" that page 2 or 3 weeks ago, not sure though... :confused:
[Windows Mobile Software Development] joe_coolish:
Thank you for the reports :)

I've been super busy with Finals, so I haven't had time to work on xdafb too much lately.

I will go through the logs that were submitted and try and generate some solutions.

I would also like to ask that when people report bugs, they also include a little more detail in how they got to that bug. E.g., steps to reproduce. Also, for some bugs (like visuals) describing what is expected and what actually happens is information that is very helpful in tracking down the bugs.

With those pieces of information, it will be easier for me to find the problems.

Thanks you!

Sorry for upload the concept art late. I am just having an public examination

Here are the screenshots, I personally think it must be great if you can make the app like this. What do you think about my concept art for xda facebook?

Wishlist:

1. Auto refresh with push notification

2. Smoother scroll

3. Ability to view who liked the post

4. Ability to view friends' notes (from their profile)

5. Add/remove friend
[Windows Mobile Software Development] Simon_WM:

Loving it!

Ok, I just got my new HD2, my old one had some touch screen problems so it's been out of commission for the past week or so.

Anyways, I'm working on a whole new Async HTTP connection thingy. It should make data transmition much better!

I've also started work on the chat interface. I'm going to probably be releasing a new version with an "Echo Chat" that will kind of demo what things are going to look like.

I'm also going to incorporate the new UI that was posted. I think it looks clean and professional. So, it should be a pretty good update!

Ehem, i've BEEN using the images like in the concept (artwork that is) for a while now that i hand made from the android version, being i'm a graphic designer and what i do.

It's nice to see ya back again Joe!! I've 'been' waiting for some more skinning stuff for us creative designer's who are pro's at making theme's. :) Or at least a type of 'skin' or 'theme' folder system we can use, so each time we get a new version, we don't have to copy over all our personalized graphic's into the folder that get's overwritten each time. Please? Just a request.

And lately, another cool idea for the future versions, if you have control, using the shock sensor, have it refresh with a few flicks? (IE- semi-shake)

The refresh image is a little TOO small, you can't barely make out what it is to most. I thought it would be a little bit bigger which is why i put more detail in the image, but so tiny, it's hard to see what it is. Unless everyone else knows, then cool. Maybe i'm being TOO picky, i do have a history of this. Just a hard professional at what i do. Or position is where it can be sized a little. We can have a different image to resize like most programs, but i figured it defeats the purpose of the slide down function if anything else. I'm not the craziest for that idea, but it IS different. :)

Feedback for XDAFacebook-Beta-4.6.1-skin

Hi Joe,

the new internal test looks great. :cool:

What about the Chat function, If i start the Chat there is a textfield and a mail button, but nothing happen... :-(

The new Build works really fine.

The only bug is, when i want to see older posts in the news feed.

If i press the button, it shows "loading" but nothing happen.

Requests:

- Is it possible to rotate the pictures in the detail view?

- add Friends in the search function.

- to see groups in the xdaFacebook.

Thanks for your great job and have nice day!

Good Version. But i need to test Checkins via mobile connection

Edit:

I have read through the source and i found some things, which could be optimized i think. (i am just a web developer)

string authKeyCode = FBParseUtilities.authKey.Split('=').Last();

This line is used very often, when something is fetched or posted to facebook. You could cache the key itself, i think it should be a very bit faster.

Edit 2: After testing with mobile connection:

The app does not fetch any data from facebook. No friends feed, no pictures, no locations. I only get the red notification bar, thats all.
