Facebook

So I was thinking that the contacts picture feature is really under used in most phones. I was wondering if there was a possibility of having an app that would sync contact photos with their profile pictures on facebook. You could sync by name or phone # if your friends have put their cell #s on their profile.
Also as a side note to that it would be nice to have a better facebook application something similar to the Iphone's app where you are able to use facebook chat aswell as see notification popups and such.

/me looks to see if he's on candid camera.
1) Open Market.
2) Search for "facebook"
3) Install app named "Facebook Contact Sync" (Syncs facebook photos to contacts)
4) Install app named "fbook" (general facebook app, no chat)
5) Install app Named "Meebo" (Supports facebook chat)

why cant there just be an all in one facebook app with chat. Why do i have to use 2 programs to do the job of one app that was already developed for the iphone and which im sure can be developed for the g1.

Sorry sir I'll get right on that.

Well from what i have read on this forum as well as off site, Developing a app for facebook with the abilities of the one for the iphone is virtually impossible at this time.
See, google and myspace are together and microsoft and facebook are together. and with apple, that app has access to the API's within facebook to easily sync and access facebooks information. Google doesnt have that ability since them and microsoft are "enemies". Full functionality with a facebook app for the G1 or android in general is probably not going to happen for a little while unless someone finds a way to access all the information on facebook.
i kinda of have an idea but i am not exactly sure if it would work

Are you the creator of the facebook app?
Bhogan123 I dont really think that that is entirely true though. There are many other programs that have integrated features with facebook. I dont think they are exclusively contracted with any company.

Fbook.
Does anyone of you have the last version of Fbook? Or any older one that is not current. I hate the new one, it won't let me upload photos!
Thanks in advance.

Have you tried emailing the dev and informing him of this issue?

I was being stupid. My album was full, it wasn't the application.

I just use iphone.facebook.com as a bookmark... the app just links you to the page anyways and I find it more stable than the app at times.

fBook application not in Market?
A friend just got the G1 this week. He is looking for the fBook application but cannot find it on the market. If he searches for "fBook" it does not come up. When he looks at the applications by popularity list, it is not there. I sent him the cyrtek barcode link and the market cannot find it: "There are no matches in Android Market for the searchname:com.nextmobileweb.fbook"
I can see it just fine on the market, I can search for it and find it, and the Cyrtek Barcode URL works as well. I do have the apk and I am waiting for him to get home to install it by "hand".
My question is, what could be the reason he does not see it? I do not yet know his firmware version and he is not the "rooting" kind. I assume (shame on me) that if he got the phone this week it should be at least on the RC 33 version, yes?
wergeld

Search typing facebook, i downloaded today...

Depending on when his supplier got the phone, it may still be on RC30. You should ensure that he's on RC33 at least, if for no other reason than he'll be ready for the OTA update push that's now occuring.
Because the market also works on SDK, if he is on the Android 1.0 SDK, he will not see any 1.1 or 1.5 applications, just as users on the 1.5 SDK will not see any 1.1 or older applications on the market either.

FBook?
EDIT: Apparently its still in the market...
Can someone confirm?
Im runnin ADP 1.5, and Im not really believing that it runs off SDK thing because I just re-rooted my new phone coming from another phone with 1.5 on it. I was able to download it on that phone fine.

I just did a fresh install of jf 1.5 adp, and can no longer find fbook in the market. I had this exact same rom installed previously, and was able to locate it with no difficulties. Seems strange...

I can't find it either and I'm on the new 1.5 official update.

Cyrket.com doesnt even have it listed under the "Social" section for any of the SDK numbers.
Maybe they're fixing it??
This is strange....

I can confirm its been pulled from the market. I just reflashed this morning and could not find the app. So I check my store demos just in case it was blocked. None of my G1s can find it in the market. I miss this app, if someone could upload the apk please, that would be awesome.

Should be 2.1.1

Why was it pulled?

Market "fix" for my SGT Wifi version

i recently bought a Samsung Galaxy Tab wifi version and I tried doing a search for Yahoo Messenger in the Market but it doesn't give any result, says that 'no application found'.
but on my mini pro, Yahoo messenger shows up so i end up downloading it in my mini pro and transfer it via BT on my SGT.
any idea why it's not showing in SGT's Market? is there a way for me to be able to fix it?

I'm running Overcome 1.4.2 with Globe as my carrier and it shows up fine in the Market. Didn't see it on stock though.

i've heard of Overcome but i'm not sure if i can use that on my SGT since mine is the Wifi version.

here's what's going on with the Market that I have on my SGT Wifi version.
At first i thought that Yahoo Messenger is the only app that I can't find but unfortunately, I can't locate GO Launcher as well. It shows the Go Launcher themes but not the app itself.
So I'm assuming that there might also be other known apps that might not show. Is there a way to fix or patch the Market so that it would show the apps?

i've tried MarketEnabler, MoreLocale2 but it's a no go .. i've seen someone post a copy of Market here. if i overwrite the existing Market app, won't that cause a problem or will that fix the problem?
anyone?

found a temporary solution .. i've installed Amazon's AppStore, AppBrain and Applanet.
Appbrain relies on Market so that's really a no-go. Applanet works since it shows the files that I need, like, Yahoo Messenger for instance. It even shows the plug-in.

non-market apps are enabled but the apps that i've mentioned above are still missing.

[Q] Google+ on Milestone

So, I got me a Google+ account.
However, I can't seem to find the app on the market or download it directly from Google's website via a link set to my phone.
Any idea why, or where we can get the .apk?

What did you search for on the Market? I searched for google+ and got it right away.

Tried "Google+", "Google Plus", tried to use the link directly from the m.google.com/plus site, and all I get is "Not Found" on the market.

Perhaps the app is blocked in your country? Try using Market Enabler?

I think the easest way to find it is searching any app from google on the downloaded list and go to "More apps from this developer" (or whatever you see in your language)
I've founded it by this way (on Argentina), but i don't have an invitation...
Sent from my Milestone using XDA App

Can't think of a reason why it should be blocked, there's a Hebrew translation for Google+ and I'm using it.
In addition, on the google+ page there's a link to send the app to my mobile, and for some reason I'm not getting the SMS with the link.
Strange stuff

Please, could someone upload the apk file? I can't download it from the market because it is country restricted. Thanks!

Market Enabler is the way to go, find it in the market, install and fake as something [US].
I use T-Mobile...

Yep, Market enabler did the job. Thanks!
Does auto-upload feature work for everyone? It seems kind of buggy for me

This application works perfectly on my milestone. I have no problem finding it in the market Maybe try download it via https://market.android.com/

[Q] Facebook Viewer by CambO

Hi there!
I had to do a hard reset to my LG Quantum and all my applications were gone.
Now I found out that Facebook Viewer by CambO is not available at Windows Phone store anymore
IMO that was such a cool application and I still have it in my Lumia 710.
Well, how to get it back to my LG Quantum?
1) does anyone have an XAP file of it?
2) can I copy the application from my Lumia 710?
3) are there any other similar & cool Facebook apps for Windows Phone 7? The original Facebook app sucks
Thanks in advance!

This app has been Pulled out from the Store
Use JDB for Facebook

If you had it before, you should find this app in purchase history.

Yep, I found it: "the application is not published anymore"
I contacted the developer via Twitter but he hasn't answered me yet.

I succeeded to get extrated installation files from my Lumia, zipped them onced again and changed the file type to XAP.
Now when I try to deploy that file from computer, it gives me an error message.
When I try to install it to directly to my phone, the phone recognizes the application but says it's a signed application and therefore it can only be installed from Windows Marketplace.
Is it possible to install that XAP file if I put it in a specific folder of my phone or similar?

It won't install.
And believe me that App is now worthless and FB has updated their layout which makes the top taskbar cut in the app.
If u need this which is a Pro Version let me know by PM. I'll provide u the XAP of the below app
http://www.windowsphone.com/en-us/s...book-ᴾᴿᴼ/068ede9a-5648-40fa-8e28-044d047e8571

Anyway to deploy application that was removed from store?

The application I want is Live Lockscreen BETA that was published my Microsoft. It was removed, but I still have XAP, but of course it knows that it's from store and it won't let me install it. Is there anyway to get around that?

no with your xap...
but app is still in Store... i installed it without problem (in 8.1)... try install it with SysApp Pusher...

I tryed that but I get error (even store page for it won't load). I'm using Windows 10 on Hong Kong 920. Region is set to US. Any ideas?

app not supported in Win 10...
btw. you tried Awesome Lock?

No, but it's not what I want. I want application that changes time and date layout and I find that application very cool. Thx for suggestion anyway.
