[Q] XDAFacebook 4.5.1 --> Places problem - General Questions and Answers

Hey guys,
I have the problem, that Facebook-Places is not working. Maybe someone can help me to solve it:
I loaded the XDAFacebook 4.5 and updatet it to 4.5.1, because it's said that it's the only app which works with Facebook-Places. And it's a quite nice App for Facebook.
Like Deu5Vult wrote I installed the Bing-App again, and reinstalled XDAFacebook. (I have to say that I like the Bing-App very much, cause it's much faster than GoogleMaps - it locates me, an eg finds Cafes nearby).
But when I now go back to XDAFacebook --> Places --> Checkin it tries to locate my GPS data for about 5 seconds and then the windows is still empty.
I'm using the HTC HD2 with Windows Mobile 6.5 professional (5.2.21913), ROM 3.14.407.2 GER.
Has anybody some suggestions what I could do, to get Facebook-Places working?

Moved to Q&A section

Same Problem here, with WM 6.5 (Build 21916). Build 28244 is not working either.

I think you can get more help if you post this on the official XDAFacebook thread (link in my signature)
The issue can be resolved by updating to 4.6

WLM connection problem
I also tested this WLM version.
Seems to be working good, login is quick, merging of WLM and Outlook-contacts is a good thing.
My problem: After some hours running, it seems to lose connection with GPRS.
I have to soft-reset my wizard to get a connection to WLM
After the reset i can connect / sync again with WLM..
So far no luck. Running Faria's WM6 and it installed okay (though very slow) and rebooted. After that I run it and it only says Sign in to Windows Live. I click it but it never connects. I've tried it through both wifi and edge. Gonna reboot my phone and see if that helps, otherwise I'm going to hope the server is down or something. Although, come to think of it, I had similar problems with previous versions too. Maybe I'm doing something wrong, who knows. I really hope I can get this working. The inability to merge WLM and Outlook contact lists is what has kept me from using it so far. If this has that fixed and I can get it to work consistently, I'm in happyville.
Edit: Rebooting fixed the connection issue. Still doesn't do what I want though. It won't take my outlook contacts and add them to Live Messenger, for instance. You would think it wouldn't be that hard to have it read the IM field in the contacts to do so. Also while it did successfully merge one of my contacts, others had duplicates. For instance, my wife has her name entered one way in WLM and I had it another. It created a duplicate for her. Both had the IM address listed as ****@hotmail.com. So, it is a slight improvement, but not there yet. I want full synchronization between Outlook and WLM. I also want to be able to add a Windows Live mail acct to my existing passport but I'm not holding my breath for that one.
Worked perfectly for me, except the fact I dont like having all my MSN contacts in my phonebook forced upon me.
is it possible to install this version on top of the WLM that already existed on cooked rom? (xplore 1.1) Or is there any way to uninstall previous version?
thanks!
WLM - how do I get rid of it?
I made the mistake of installing (ahem, "running" the thing from the Programs folder) WLM (from the RUU_mUn_aRTM_10_2_0_8_WWE-Fixed.exe ROM), and it has seriously messed up a previously good setup...
1) I can't uninstall it - this is a _bug_! It seems to insinuate itself through Windows and I can't make it stop connecting my EDGE connection..
2) Because it seems to do something to connect the EDGE connection, it also seems to prevent me from receiving incoming calls.
3) It seriously slows down my 8125.
This is not specific to this beta version but i get the defbrowser errors when trying to open links from emails also pushmail does not work reliably it often says sign in failed / sync failed. The only way to get it & messenger working again is to clear the password in account options any ideas how to fix this?
WIll not install
Guys can you help me install this please?
Whenever i run the installer on my XP SP1 machine, it does not detect that i am connected to Activesync. I am however, connected to it via USB. The installer just keeps giving the message "Connection error. Make sure ActiveSync is running"
I have tried it on 2 machines now and both have the same result.

Anyway of getting a CAB of this?

The exe above has the cab in it. Just start the install from your PC, but when it comes up on your phone, don't click on anything. Now with your PC (or with TotalCommander) do a search for *.cab and you'll find the cab. Make a copy of it, and you have your cab file that you can put on your storage card or where ever.
Tks for the info mfrazzz! Always learning
I tried getting the cab, but it didnt work. It installed right away without asking any confirmation.
Can anyone post the cab file?
Thanks
... Never mind.. I found it on my PC.
Thanks alot.

You must not be running a custom rom then, as most all of them stop to ask you where to install the cab, and don't delete the cabs after install.
thanks, works ok for me. glad the contacts issue has been sorted, its much nicer than Pocket MSN. i couldnt find the .cab but the .exe installed fine via my pc.
is this a beta? the install said it was a beta.

Newbie Needs Help

Hi Guys!
I am new to this forum but already amazed by the sheer amount of content on here!
As per the title of the thread, I am a newbie to XDA's and I was wondering if any of you learned gents would be kind enough to point me in the right direction with a few questions I have about my recently acquired O2 XDA Serra. I have done searches and read the WIKI but there are a few points I could not find an answer to so was counting on your help.
The specs of the machine listed in settings -> system -> device information are:
ROM Version: 1.90.206.4 WWE
ROM Date: 09/01/08
Radio Version: 1.02.25.19
Protocol Version: 52.33.25.17H
Model No: Xda_Serra
I have noticed that unlike my girlfriends XDA Ignito (Diamond) my phone did not come with any map software preloaded in spite of the spec sheet saying a GPS chip is built in to the phone. Also unlike with the Diamond there is no separate YouTube application.
So I would be very greatful if any of you fellows can direct me to where I can get some:
1) Good free map software that will work with the XDA Serra and some advice on how to install it (as I read a lot of GPS problems so want to avoid any issues)
2) Tell me how to get the YouTube application on my XDA Serra and again some advice on how to install it
Also I have read MrSkips very useful guide on how to flash a ROM to the raphael and I was wondering what the overall concensus is on which ROM version is the best? Are all released ROMs on here suitable for my XDA Serra?
Also, I have not unlocked my phone and I understand that there is no need to if I want to flash a new ROM on it unless I want to change the radio version or use other SIMs.
Is there any compelling reason why I would want to change the radio version from the one installed presently on the device? Will it serve to boost GSM/3G/GPS Signal?
If so what radio version is considered to be the best and most stable?
I just got the phone today so a bit hesitant to load ROMs on it straight away in case I brick it but I guess you live and learn so all advice to help me get the most out of the device is much appreciated.
Many thanks - you guys ROCK!!!

First let me remind you that the search feature is there and is quite useful. Second to start answering your questions.
As for GPS I use Google Maps. Which can be found here http://www.google.com/mobile/default/maps.html
As far as configuring the software to connect I update the satellites with "QuickGPS" which should be included on your phone. Then I open Google Maps and tell it to use the GPS, I usually have to be outside for it to connect.
For more GPS Stuff check this thread. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=427888
As for the Youtube app it may be included on your phone. Check this thread. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=448824
And finally as far as the radio is concerned there are a few out there but since the device is so new it will take some time before we know the benefits/downfalls of the different versions. Keep in mind that they may have different results in different areas of the world.
And as for flashing new roms if you have read the sticky located here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=448008 then you should have all of the info needed to be successful. As for which rom it boils down to personal preference just read the threads and make an educated decision from there.
And remember the search feature is your friend.
Im a Fuze/Wm newb too!
When I search my contacts, it has every name doubled. I believe its also showing my SIM contacts. Is there a way to hide it or should I just delete the SIM contacts?
Thanks! (sorry for jumping in your thread OP!)

You can delete the sim contacts by going to the sim manager, selecting all, then delete (make sure not to select delete CONTACTS).
You could also disable viewing the sim contacts by searching for advanced config and look through the 'phone' options. They will then only show up in the sim manager and not the contacts menu.
Lost_Reaver,
Thanks for your reply. Unfortunately some of your suggestions do not seem to apply to me.
In particular the GPS and YouTube app.
Please note that the ROM I have on my Raphael is specific to O2 UK and for some reason O2 UK has chosen not to include any of the following applications:
YouTube App
QuickGPS
Google Maps
As far as YouTube app is concerned, I used the search feature prior to posting and checked for the application in the following location: windows->youtube.exe. I did not find anything in the windows folder related to YouTube and as such was wondering if someone could tell me where I can get the YouTube app .cab file to install on my XDA Serra.
The same goes for QuickGPS / GoogleMaps. My XDA Serra does not have either of these applications pre-installed. They are not visible anywhere in the file structure of the device. I have since installed GoogleMaps by getting the .cab and am now having the problem that no matter how long I wait the XDA Serra does not achieve satelite lock.
You say that you are able to get lock using QuickGPS as a reciever prep app? If so where can I get QuickGPS from? Will it work on the XDA Serra? I ask because reviews of the device state that an equivalent to QuickGPS is embedded in the O2 ROM by the operator and for this reason QuickGPS was removed. If so, will installing QuickGPS cause more issues?
Anyone with a UK O2 XDA Serra care to comment?
Many thanks!

Could someone point me in the direction of the "advanced config"?
You can download Google maps for free. Use the link above within your devices browser.
Anyone with an UK XDA Serra who can help????

I have attached the latest version of Advanced config below.
@NCU1980
I have attached QuickGPS, Google Maps, and the Youtube app ripped straight from my phone.
QuickGPS and Google Maps are CABs and the Youtube app needs to go in the "Windows" directory.

Lost_Reaver,
Your YouTube app .zip file did not work but I eventually managed to find both a streaming video .cab file and a youtube app .cab file for VGA resolution and it works great.
QuickGPS for some reason also did not work no matter what location I downloaded the file from your upload or others. However I installed GPS Tweaks and GPS Test and was able to get a signal on googlemaps with a couple up to 5 satelites. All be it a pretty weak one so going to try to do the GPS lag fix and maybe change radio to try to upgrade this issue.
The advance config utitlity works great and I did not know this existed so thanks for that!
Best,

WM6.5 and Avaya as dialler

Hi,
I am new on this portal but I read a lot in the last days and was very surprised of the solutions you find and also the apps you made working. Great
I know its not looking very good to ask as newbie for help but I hope you can help me... I am searching for more than a week for a solution and tried even to edit the registry but unfortunately I am not good enough to find the solution
So what do I want do to?
I have a HD2 (branding free) and I want to install Avaya One-X mobile.
Well the installation was succesfull and I also get it running inside my company and also the private modus. But since I have it installed I hear no ringtone. It always plays an "ding" and thats all.
So right now I always have to keep my eyes on my mobile to see if someone calls me or not.
And the second problem is that I also get no caller picture displayed..
But as soon as I deinstall the one-x everything is working (phone rings and caller picture is displayed)????
So you are my last hope to find a solution. Please can you help me?
If you need any further infos please let me know
Thanks
Frank
oh... the one-x mobile software is free for download on the avaya webiste
I can post you the link later (I am not allowed to post it right now...)
i'm getting mad with it...
Now I am a step further.. I now that the software deactivates the onboard call handler. I think it is only a registry setting to reenable it. after done the caller name+picture should be displayed and even the call-slider should be back.
Does someone have an idea where I can find the entry?
well now I know exactly the differents between the registry with one-x installed vs without. But I have no experiences in reading/interpreting my results.
Is a Dword something which can be used as name? or is it only a value?
Does someone has a guide for beginners please?
Did you contact Avaya support for assistance?
I have recently taken over all our telecoms at the office (avaya system)
Saw your post on One-x and been reading a little on it. Where did you get the install files from and did you get it working in the end?
I have a support contact with a company called central so I can contact them for free advice if needed
is this the version you are using?
http://support.avaya.com/css/appman...loads/P0438/5.2.x/C201012083328498084#summary
I'll take a look at what the installer does as I've not heard of it before but it's not letting me register to download it .
yep that's the software I am trying to download
Could not create an account either
I have emailed my support company and they will be sending the software to me on a disc.
thanks for your responses.
I installed the version for pocketpc WM6 (not the UC version) and yes it is working fine
But:
The problem I have is that since I have it installed it
- my mobile does not play a ringtone any more
- "slide to answer" and "show caller name+picture" is away
When I get the disc tomorrow ill post up the results.
This app will be very helpful if i get it working
As for the no ringtone issue I am not sure.
I would attach it... but i have no permissions...
@ fards: there are two versions. one for "Windows mobile 5"and the other one for "Windows mobile pocket pc" (here you can find it for WM6). the first is a UC versions. For this you need an internet connection and a uc-server running in your company. the other one is for normal mobile use. it calls via the phone connection the server and then your call is managed by the server.
support.avaya.com/css/appmanager/public/support/Downloads/P0483/C20090710162819340875658#files
you can find it here for free and you need no login
I do not see the HD2 listed as compatible device.
Did you get it working or still having problems?
How does the Avaya interface on the mobile phone look like?
Is it replacing the WM dialer completly or only while Avaya software is running in the background?
I have just installed it onto my HD2. The install hung at the end for about 20 mins. Reset device and the software has replaced my dialer. Appears to be working but im reading on how to configure the ini file now.
Tested on personal mode and call connected fine.
it replaces the dialer completly...
for the ini file you need the settings of your ACM. here you have to enter different extensions for each function...
you also has to to enter your mobile number in the ACM. Because your are identified via your number.
But can you test if you get a ringtone for incoming calls? thats my problem. I get no
Just to draw a conclusion to this This topic. This solution does not work correctly on HD2. Unless someone has managed to do this and has not shared?
sry... I was offline for a while... Does somesone find the solution?
No i gave up in the end..... bloody crap
