[Q] network error with facebook apps - General Questions and Answers

Hi,
I'm using a JasJar (HTC Universal) running Tomal's 8.5 WM6.1 ROM.
All is good, except that Facebook Instant Messenger, Snap2face and Skybook all complain about a 'failed internet connection'.
My internet connection is ok - I'm able to browse websites, stream music etc.
Has Facebook changed its web API recently and broken a bunch of 3rd party apps?

Me to have this problem since this Thursday!
The only facebook app that works is this new one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=630992 but this is just an early not finished version.
Anyone who got news on this?

What do you use your PPC for?

Hola,
I'm still a little new to this forum and I have done a lot of reading and searching. I would like to ask what you use your PPC for and with what tools. Example; for me I use my PPC as:
Telephone - built in
PDA - built in
Camera - built in used seldom because poor in quality
MP3 Player - built in
others would have something like GPS, etc. I'm trying to get a feel as to what else I can do with my PPC.
Thanks
Piet
not exactly sure what you're after but here goes:
Telephone - built in
BT Headset - via Bluetooth
PDA - built in
Camera - built in used seldom because poor in quality
MP3 Player - built in
GPS - via Bluetooth
Laptop mouse pad/control - via Bluetooth, Activesync and 3rd party app called Pocket Tablet (though it's not as accurate). Good for flipping charts/PPT materials when in a meeting
Browsing - built in
Car Stereo - 2.5mm to 3.5mm plug converter, car charger and a sh*tload of mp3s in the storage card
FM radio via 3rd party app using GPRS
Traffic video watch via 3rd party app using GPRS
Flashlight - Pocket Lamp...helpful when I drop something in the movie theatre
and 3rd party apps for doing all sorts of things like currency/unit converter
I use mine simply for phoneing, a basic track of pims and all my texts from my beloved wifey.
What else oh yes gps, games, browsing web and work sending me loads of emails.
mostly navigating and phone usage play a few games and keep appointments

What app is this?
If you use GPRS, then surely it's internet radio and not FM radio.
PDA: Contacts and Appointment
Phone
WAP Browser
Bible reader
Music Player
I use my Wallaby to navigate around London on foot and public transport with train, underground and street maps. Also alarm clock, address book, scheduling, phone calls, taking notes whilst in meetings (might be getting the keyboard for it soon), a game or two when I'm bored, MSN messenger, IRC and email when I'm out and about on the bus/train etc and as a guitar tuner.
Great, handy little device that can do so much!

96% Games, 1% Reading, 1% listening to Music, 1% Browsing the Net, and 1% other (much is mixed in with that 1%)....
use them for a little bit everything they are designed to do...
but, mostly for the internet & as a world phone when traveling...
I do tons with my phone.. gps, internet, phonebook, addressbook, calculator, tip calc, book, pretty much everything.. the only 2 things I can't figure out yet is a functional semi accurate sound DB/SPL meter, and something for monitoring/modifying my car engine, for on the fly tuning.
Basicaly is my main device for working and personal
So with my great Universal I do:
80% calling, 10% net surfing with Opera mobile and live messenger and
10% installing, tweaking, flashing ROMĀ“s etc
Never use camera, never play games...
similar to orb3000, dont use my device for games and camera.... i use it for everything else they are designed to do. mostly phone calls, agenda, reminder, business contacts - its like a mini yellow pages here , internet, dictionary, calculator, and some other useful apps like forex, dictionary, investment tools, etc etc..
cant live without it
Another here who doesn't use the camera, games, or even as an MP3 player. If i want the first i have a nice Fuji A370, the middle a DS, and the latter a 120Gb iPod. Saves the battery on my Trinity for the day to day stuff of messaging in all its forms, SMS, IM, twitter, email, voice.
one more thing. i have a u1000 and with that the screen's 5 inches. for long drives and i don't need the gps, i mount it in the back passenger window. my kid loves movies like finding nemo (disney - pixar - dreamworks), etc. so instead of buying a portable dvd and a screen, the u1000 does this perfectly.
The two biggest uses for my Kaiser are browsing the web with Opera or Skyfire and finding businesses and directions and such with Live Search and GMM. The calendar (synced through Exchange with my Google calendar) is also very useful to me.
I never use the media functions, because there's no dedicated 3.5mm jack out and I already have a Zune.
I use the camera occasionally, but rarely for taking actual "photos." I use it as a "scanner" to take pictures of text or stuff I want to remember with Evernote.
to view naked chiks .. lol
50%calling
20%gps

AVE...
I have Rose.
For music and audiobooks I use PocketPlayer.
for reading ebooks - Mobipocket Reader.
Navigation - Garmin Mobile XT.
Movies - TCPMP.
Internet and online communication - Iris browser + Palringo.
Audio recording and Dictaphone - Audionotes.
QR barcodes - I-nigma.
Standard phone functions - rarely.
Camera - almost never.
I never use RSS Hub, Messenger, e-mail, PIE, Audio Manager or FM Radio.
I have also some games and 3rd party tweaking and modding software like SKTools and SmartToolkit(this is used rarely because it's unstable and uses too much resources). I'm waiting for some ROM updates to make my phone more stable and to increase performance...

[Q] Video call from yahoo messenger on windows mobile

Is there any application (something like slick for example) where i can make a video call over the internet (using 3g or wireless network) from my yahoo messenger account on my HTC Diamond? I don't seem to find any that works.

[Q] Video IM/ Instant Messenger

Hi - Can't find any results for this one...
.
Are there any apps out there which allow you to access the webcam features on either Windows Live Messenger (MSN), or Skype?
.
I hear that fring used to but no longer does??
Thanks.
Bump...
Anyone?
Ok.. spent a while googling and found a great app for video calling..
it's called Tango - it's free and it's on the market... It works brilliantly.
It's not for Instant Messaging, and there's no PC client.. but mobile to mobile works brilliantly.

[Q] Internet Explorer Mobile Problem

Dear all,
I have an HTC HD2 (a.k.a. HTC Leo), running Windows Mobile 6.5 Professional, and it may have a problem.
I tried to install Flash Player on my mobile device in order to watch online videos in Internet Explorer Mobile. I found, however, that this only stopped the one website that I could play videos in, YouTube, from playing. I uninstalled the player and found that I still could not play even YouTube videos.
What can I do? As I understand it, a mobile browser needs to include Flash in order to play online videos. I have heard conflicting accounts as to whether Internet Explorer Mobile is or is not a Flash browser. I only knew of the one site that I could play videos on and now I cannot even use that one. Any suggestions would really be appreciated.
Many thanks,
Karim434
P.S. My reason for doing this is that the famous substitute for the absence of a flash browser on Windows phones, Skyfire, has recently decided to abandon Windows Mobile users. If anyone knows of any decent alternatives then that would be good too. Thanks!
