Get it while it's hot! Looks like they're finally stepping it up.
Edit: Also improved Facebook API so hopefully Facebook-integrated apps won't be so bad now!
so far it seems to be a good upgrade
downloading now... lets see how these god d*** notifications work...
still doesnt integrate fb chat, so sad.

if we actually use a sense rom this app is the most useless thing we can have on our phone if there is no chat feature on it... i mean really... even the iphone facebook app have chat... how lazy are they to not implement it to android... i dont get it.

How does having a Sense ROM make this useless? Other than contact integration and image uploading, what the hell does Facebook for HTC Sense do?
The notifications don't work for comments. That sucks. There is a app called f-plus that will give you notifications and Go Chat will take care of the fb chat.
I am sick of having 3 apps on my phone for the job that one app should be able to do.
On top of all that my post through the "official app" are not posting on the news feed. If anyone can chime in on that it would be very helpful.
still no chat and still can't poke! Among other things..The bottom line is If I have to open my browser to do anything then its a FAIL! Why have an app if I just need to open my browser at some point..
I just can't believe how they keep dropping the ball on this!
i can view comments from notification in the app so i am confused to as what is not working besides chat
Yes but it does not notify me on the notification bar if some one post on my wall

I tried downloading from the app store. It downloads completely and while installing it fails. It gives me an error saying it was unable to perform the install. I tried to uninstall the present version but the uninstall option is grayed out.
And also sometimes , the appstore takes a while to download. Sometimes I have to restart my fone in order for the phone to start downloading the apps.
Any help is appreciated.
I get notifications on cm6.

I just wish you could tag photos with the app, my gf's iPhone can ... they just need to make the app on par to what the iPhone has already been able to do...

im ok with no chat since i dont use it, love that i dont have to use browser to reply to notifications, now if i could only edit uploaded photos(rotate) i would be satisfied.
Hmmm I don't like the single-sign-on feature because now all apps will have access to my account by just using FB API? not so good...
Still needs small improvement but they're stepping it up.

It will be listed in the app's permissions. Don't go downloading apps that you don't want to access your Facebook account.

If you're rooted, use Titanium Backup to uninstall the system copy of Facebook, reboot, then download the Market version.

Why, exactly? The only thing that happens when you remove it is that you can't access Drive Smart settings.

I think someone in another thread mentioned that it caused problems with another app or got force closes.
I removed DriveSmart and the only issue is that under Android settings, the tile for DriveSmart is still there and if you press it, you get a FC. That's the only problem I've noticed in the past 2 months.

I went back to try using SlideScreen again but now I cannot view any facebook updates. It tries to display them (I assume a summary / single item) but then crashes. The full normal Facebook app is working fine.
Wouldn't mind going back to SlideScreen but this puts me off.
There's a bunch of stuff with this launcher that just doesn't work. Even if it works how it's supposed to, it's just not very intuitive. The concept is good, but the execution is horrible.
That's strange...it worked a year and a half ago. Maybe it needs an update?
Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda app-developers app
Of course it doesn't work...
First: It's a DEAD APP. Shut down by the developers. So no, there won't be any updates.
Second, stuff is not working because other apps (such as Facebook) and your OS (Slidescreen was built for 2.2 Froyo) don't work the same and don't have the correct access points for SS to talk to.
Third: Google also changed and closed off access to key parts of some apps (Gmail, calendar, etc), which complicates or closes off information. This is what ultimately shut down the project...the app couldn't get info from the stock apps to do its thing.
Was an amazing concept before it's time, and would make the Android phone a serious WIN for many people I know and work with (which it IS NOT now). Until Google and Android re-open access and permissions, or a development team can handle trying to rebuild it with other apps in mind (Maildroid, K-9, Kaiten for example), then I'm afraid it's a dream.
Way to necropost a six month old thread.

Yes, and I for one am glad the previous poster added the clarification details, regardless of how old the thread is, since I was looking for SlideScreen TODAY (having been a couple years since the last time I used it).
Not sure where people get the idea that just because a thread hasn't seen activity in a while means something useful/helpful can't be added to it.
And that is your opinion

Just switched from victory to lithium and there is no media gallery. Is there a way to fix this or do I have to download one from the market. Or if someone could post a link for a good gallery I could download! Thanks!
more bugs
Another thing, it won't allow a Facebook sync...is anyone else experiencing these problems?

I don't use Facebook but I was having issues syncing Google music. Wifi wasn't working for me and the pattern lock was all messed up too.

You could extract a ROM and grab a gallery apk from that and copy it to /system/app folder. Just make sure and change to the correct permissions after you move it there.

I've no gallery either, and also the camera is giving me glitches. It seems like I can take pictures just fine, but am unable to record video. It force closes after every attempt. Pattern unlock is glitched for me as well.

I dont know how you guys feel, but no facebook sync or stock gallery means no good. I tried fixing it and after hours of work I decided to try out the Sonya v2
Sorry this was my fault, dont know how I missed the gallery, will have that fixed by tonight after work. Facebook has synced with me everytime and I'm not having any issues with google music as well. I use these everyday and are a must as well. Patternlock on the other hand is a different story. I will look into it.
A note on Facebook, if you are trying to add the account like you do your Google account you can't. Just use the app from the market. It works well and I have found it more reliable this way
Had the same problems setting up yahoo, fb and twit from add accounts.I ended up getting apps from market worked out fine.
This will b a great rom when u get the gallery work out.Been running it for about 24 hours now with pretty heavy use and battery is at 27 not bad at all.installed at 95

JRW, are you experiencing the camcorder issues or is that just me? Also I just wanna say great ROM otherwise.
Edit: Also is there a way that you could get Contacts sync from the Facebook app to work? I've seen other Android phones do that with a non-modified Facebook app; I think there's something involved with blur that tells the app not to give us that option.

Yes I am and I'm hoping it is due to me forgetting to install the gallery in the Rom as everything was working fine on my test version. I will have an update out tonight after work.
I removed a lot of the blur accounts have you tried using just the app from the market? It has been working for me

Right, I'm a PowerAMP pro user, but with a pretty old phone. The latest app is working but it's slow and sometimes lags. The poweramp site also offers the old 1.4 version which works right for me. Now, all is fine and dandy but I;m a bit annoyed by the app always showing up there to be updated. So I searched for a method to detach the app from the market and learnt that the bug has been solved long ago and apps can't be detached. So I tried changing the app's signature, of course with no luck, my android dev skills being close to absolute zero.
So I ask you, is there any way to do this? I am not pirating the app, so don't worry
I'm also trying to convince the developer to make an unsigned version of the app specifically for old timers like me, but with no success until now..
Just use LBE Privacy guard and freeze internet connection permission for this particular app..
So it will not connect to net and not telling you that new version is available..
we all should be polite enough to press thanks for anyone who helped US.

If it doesnt need to connect to the internet for anything else you could use droidwall to block it from accessing the playstore
If your rooted you could use blackmart to download the app and never have to update it
Or see the updates notifications saying there's an update

I know Titanium Backup can detach apps, though I am not sure if it is available in the free version. However, I do recommend the paid version of Titanium Backup anyway.

On a related note, is there a way to remove apps from the "My Apps"list? It is really annoying to have to scroll through a list of apps containing tons of apps that you may have tried for a while and then uninstalled when you need to reinstall something. And why is the "My Apps" list in random order and not alphabetical?

As far as I know (and after some quick Googling), there is no way to remove any apps from the giant "My Apps" list. However, I use the Appbrain android market replacement, and it lets you customize your lists and sort them better. You can remove devices from view though.
