I've been using this tutorial to help me add facebook integration to one of my games http://blog.doityourselfandroid.com/2011/02/28/30-minute-guide-integrating-facebook-android-application/ so it basically gives the user the option to upload their new score to facebook when they are done a game by pressing a button. It works fine on the emulator, but it does not work on an actual phone. Any ideas???
When you run the app on your phone are you using the default debug signature or are you using your own signature saved in a keystore file?
just the default sig.
I'll try signing it to see if that works, thanks
that didn't work... any other ideas?
What exactly about it is working on the emulator but not on your phone?
its just simply posts a message on the users wall when they press a button, which works perfectly on the emulator, but it never sends from a phone
It keeps showing the facebook loading screen and then exits into my main program view but it never sends a message to my wall on the phone
So I know where its going wrong now... It keeps loading up the screen that asks the users permission, BUT it disappears before anything can happen. How can I fix this? (i.e., bring that screen to the top of my view and keep it from automatically closing?)

hello. I have downloaded the program slick messenger to use for aim and yahoo. what I liked about it is the file transfer feature. now the problem I am having with my phone is that it does not allow me to select the keyboard to write or reply to messages. everything else works though. I was able to setup my accounts using the on screen keyboard it only happens at the point of sending. I receive the IM without a problem and I can receivable files. I can also send files and smiley as long as I don't have to send text it works. I did notice that when I click the button on the screen to pull up the keyboard it does not highlight like the others. any ideas?
For the last 2-3 days my twitter tab has stopped working. It displays the ‘Tap to Log In’ screen. I tap, enter my username and password and press log-in. The Windows loading coloured circle spins on the screen for a few seconds then it returns to the ‘Tap to Log In’ screen. I know I’m entering the correct username and password as I tested out entering deliberately the wrong password and a message pops up saying ‘incorrect username/password’.
Any ideas?
The latest app I’ve installed is Swype – although I think I’ve had that longer than 2-3 days. Has anyone else had this problem or any ideas on how to fix?
you should go to settings>>connections>>acount manager and clear your twitter account and after thats done you should try to log in again..
my problem is that the twitter gives no sound notification.. anyone else??

Same here + ( and they might be correlated) even though i've set it to download tweets automatically ( every 5 minutes) it only updates when i open the tab. This happens on all official ROMs so far.
Clear account?
Hi,
I'm having this problem too (amoung many others with this phone!). I hear what you are saying about clearing the twitter account, but how do I do this? I don't seem to have that option, either on the twitter tab or on the settings, connections or account manager. Can you help please?
Here is an application to make specific programs(like ebook reader,SatNav etc) prevent standby when they are running. It will watch them even when they are in background, so be careful, if you just forget them running in the background, your phone will not go into standby. (v1.1 change: now you can disable background watch by checking "monitor active window only")
Installation:
1- Just install the latest cab file onto Device Memory and NOT Storage Memory.
2- You need .NETCF 3.5, if you don't have it, install it.
Usage:
1- If you will use background watching, find the executable name from Task Manager/Processes, drop .exe part, type it into textbox and click add. (AdobeReaderLE.exe -> AdobeReaderLE)
1a- If you want to watch only the active window (so that your battery doesn't drain if you minimize the whitelist app) Find the window title of the application (Either task manager/applications or just look at the title if it is not hidden) and insert it as above. (Adobe Reader LE this time) you can have both versions live together. There is one limitation to active application watching though, if the application doesn't report a window title in task manager, you can only background watch it. (e.g. htcreader)
2- if you want to remove a certain app, select its name and click remove button.
3- if you want to have KeepAwake open but still not active (to force into standby) click stop.
4- this app autostarts with each boot, if you don't like it, delete the shortcut under \Windows\Startup\KeepAwake.lnk
5- this app starts minimized. if you want to configure settings, select the icon one more time or switch to it using a task manager.
6- if you click quit, obviously the software quits and no more monitoring is done, so click X after configuring if you want it to monitor your apps.
7- if you want to turn off screen and lock keys (for listening to music maybe) you can click the lock button. If your app is running, the phone will still stay awake.
Tips:
1- You can map KeepAwake to a hardware button for easy access and screen locking.

Thanks goes to Frank T. van de Ven for ProcessCE library.
Thanks a lot to DaveShaw for letting me use xdaShutdown application.
I'm pretty excited about this... I've been looking for something exactly like this to prevent specific standby times.
I hope it works with most of the applications I have in mind.
Any bugs? Would you guys find it useful to have a lock button so that it turns off the screen and locks keys but still keeps the device awake? I have implemented this for the latest version I'm using (to have my GPS logger going but preventing accidental touch on screen and keys.) Or is it better to keep it simple?
Will this also prevent Windows MSN not to idle which will cause lost connection too?
Sorry, I'm new to the WinMo scene, just saw this on Pocketnews. Let me get this straight, will this work for apps that run in the bg that don't close out IE:
Facebook
Google Maps
Email
Albums
etc.?
because they slow down my phone, I want to close them out completely, not run them in the background so they can take up valuable resources.

I haven't specifically tried MSN app, but I see no reason it shouldn't work.

I think you need a task manager so that you can close apps. This one is for making certain apps prevent the phone go standby.

I haven't given this a try yet, but any more additions are welcomed! This is something I've been looking for. I think it might be nice to give a way to put settings per application for standby perhaps (like some applications don't let the device go to stand by for 3 minutes, others are like 30 miuntes, etc). I think having't the screen off is a good addition, but keeping the device working is good, so things like voice recorder can work without having the screen on.
Seems to work well for IM services.
I haven't tested it completely for Opera and internet-browsing programs.
Nevertheless, this is a great idea.
new version is up..
What about on option... KEEP IT ON ? (Like LOCK)
This option would simply keep the phone ON, if the application is running in background even if we haven't listed anything
Is it possible? Maybe it's already included?
Thank you
Great app !
It doesn't work on my HD2. Youtube is running and my device locks and stops YT...
Any ideas??

I thought about that but later decided that not many people would find it useful. if enough request comes, I will add it. In the meantime, you might just add an always running app like device or cprog into list manually when you want to keep it on always. or just minimize an app in the whitelist

that's odd. I just tried and Youtube keeps itself open while playing a video for me even without this app. (Locks on the search screen) But still, KeepAwake seems to detect it when it is running. After installing have you clicked on the icon to run KeepAwake? Then minimized it by clicking on X? Have you tried another app, like Adobe Reader for instance? Is youtube minimized or active?
Hi,
Will this application disable lock option on device while using some application - eg. iGO Navigation?
Thanks

as long as you don't lock it yourself, yes, it won't be locked.
Very nice app...much thanks!
The app works for eReader on my Omni II running 6.3 One word of caution I have the x= app closed option turned on so the x shuts down keepAwake. It took me some time to figure out I was closing the app not minimizing it.
How would I go about disabling the standby while in a call? What's the name of the application I need to put in there? I'd like to use it so the sleep during call doesn't stop the call recording utility from working, but I still would like the screen turning off when keeping the phone at the ear.
Doesn't work on touch pro2
The software breaks error when we try to add software to the list, only with the program in background it goes to sleep anyways. It's a good idea, but not there yet...
Now available in the Android market. It needs a manual update, won't update automatically.
yeah, do you see settings for push notifications as mentioned in the changelog?

Does anyone have the apk please?
All i can say about current 1.5 update is CRAP..total crap.
I am using Samsung Galaxy S running Froyo 2.2. Here is the bug list.
1. Login to FB from PC and open chat. Now click on "Go Offline". Now open FB app on phone and open CHAT section. Your friend list will not load even after waiting for 30 min on a 1 mbps wifi connection.
2. CHAT UI is simply crap. Now we have 3 groupings , "Active Conversations" , "Available" and "Idle". We don't need grouping at all simply show a single list with GREEN color on right for Active(not idle) and Orange for Inactive like we have in Gtalk for Android.
Also , if we are chatting with any friend , Just make same UI change in the Single Main list to indicate it ass Active chat.
In-short, just mimic what Gtalk for Andorid app does. Keep It Simple Guys.
3. CHAT is not working and need proper testing. try this.
Login to FB from PC , start Chat. Now hit "Go Offline". next, open FB app in mobile and enter chat section, Your Chat friend list will never ever load friends. it will simply show "Loading......"
4. Sound notification for Chat is not working. I am 200% sure that i have set a tone to notify me of incoming chat.
5. When i enter FB app on Phone , give is option to auto-login to chat or not. and notify us about same.
6. if we enter chat and return to home screen, i get logged out. WTF is this ? I am supposed to be logged in chat.
7. PUSH notifications : All i can say is "WTF" !!!!!
Reason: PUSH on iPhone and BB is REAL INSTANT. And if its TRUE Push , why do we see "Refresh Interval" option in Settings section ? If its PURE PUSH , we don't need this at all. If its for those running OS < 2.2 then fine.. However , if i choose ""Refresh Interval" at xx hours and set "Notifications to Active" and ticked all below options , I am still not receiving any PUSH notifications when i am on home screen. However when i enter the app , i get it. Is this you call PUSH ?
Dear Facebook, Go and test your app before you release it to the masses.
I turned off refresh interval to none, and turned off all notifications ticks, but left "notification" ticked, and it seems to push almost instantly.
as far as checking on battery drain. that is to be determined since i tinker with roms, apps and other stuff a lot!
but so far the push part works on 2.2..
but the app is still millions of years behind the iFail. come on FB dont you know that more people are useing Android then then IOS.

a friend using HTC DESIRE and all is working at his end..which phone you use ?
I guess its problem with all Samsung users
I am useing a Samsung Captivate with a 2.2 rom installed
[ROM]Perception Build 8 (CogKernel2, Voodoo5, 1280Mhz OC/UV, tons of tweaks)
but , i do not think it worked too well last night, so it might have been a bug when it came out.
No push here (T-Mobile G2, stock with BaconBits kernel). Googling was no help, seems like a crapshoot if you get push correctly or not.
Actually push works fine on the Galaxy S, last night push wasn't working properly for me but i'm guessing that was Facebook's fault, as it wasn't working properly on my PC either. Works instantly now, but i took the advice someone said earlier about unticking etc and i'll see how that works out.
Push notifications not working on Evo running CM6.1. So frustrating!

Take a breather, man. There are some kinks but it's a step in the right direction. Just a few months ago the FB app was almost completely useless.
I don't have any problems on my DZ thankfully. Haven't used the chat extensively but everything works fine including push.
Update :
1. I get PUSH notification instantly when i am IN App else not.
2. If I am on homescreen ,and if a frnd of mine ping me for chat on FB, chat msg is received but no Sound at all

I got the same thing for the IN APP push, and not just anywhere in the app, but I had to be on the app's homescreen where the notifications bar sits. Even weirder was that the notification tone was <i>max</i> volume when it happened, like Facebook overrode the regular notification volume that everything else uses. I'm not really sure that it even qualifies as push, either, since the only way I could see if I had notifications before was to check that same screen. This was the only time I just happened to be on the screen when a notification came through.

I don't think thats right.
I "was" getting push for notifications, but then it just stopped.
still kind of buggy this app is.
talktoanil & igtheactt1,
Stop acting like kids plz.
I deleted your post, and I don't want any new insults, you did already enough for the whole next year
Any new insult will result in a ban... or if you want to talk, you have MP for that.
Thank you.

Well new firmware updated the asus my cloud splash top.
It now allows connection using google from outside your own network.
However, for me it force closes if i try to edit my connection settings and when i connect all i get is a black screen.
Anyone else with this issue?
ya i have the same issue with a FC when i hit the "+" button
look for splashtop in menu> applications > all apps
and clear its data
Still no dice.

I cleared my data and still cannot edit my settings for the way the app displays the desktop of my laptop . When I hit the edit button the app force closes. I can still connect to my laptop but because the default resolution setting on the asus is lower than my laptop it instantly screws up my shortcuts. Too bad. I really enjoyed the convenience of working on my computer from my couch using my transformer. FYI. I went to the market and what used to be free(splashtop) now is $2.99. Could be related.
I had the same problem. Right after the update, I was able to connect with gmail, but had FC when trying to edit connection. I also noticed the password would not save no matter if you had the box checked to remember password. So each time you disconnect, you would have to enter the PW again.
After going to SETTINGS, APPLICATIONS, MANAGE APPLICATIONS --> Splashtop Remote, I clicked on Clear data and force stop. When I reopened the my cloud icon it had me agree to the EULA. Then I set up the connections again. It found them automatically with the gmail and also on the local netowork. I was also able to edit settings. My password automatically saved this time also.
One stupid thing that I noticed was that the hints gestures changed. In order to move the screen around you have to use three finger drag. This was different than before. One finger drag moves the mouse now. Took a while to figure it out, as I assumed the gestures were the same and dismissed the hints box. Now this app runs in the native resolution of the computer I connect to. Other than this little hiccup, I'm liking this app more and more each time it updates. Better than log me in for this device for sure.
Thanks reaperzero!
