Where have you been? Myspace died. Well here in the US anyway. Facebook and Twitter took over.

ok i just made a facebook account.....
and it dumb...........
myspace all the way

Look for beejive I believe it has myspace messenger built in and is a really nice free app.

NimBuzz does MySpace as well and is also free. Best bit is it also has a PC version and any settings on one are transferred to the other. You just login with the email addy you supplied NimBuz and all your settings follow you around.

Facebook, no 'Like' in News/Update pages, and cant see comments!!

Where is the 'Like' button and why on earth can you only see the original status posted by a friend and not any comments made about that status???
I Commented on a friends status only to find out (logged on from my PC) that 4 other people had already commented and so my comment made no sense! lol

Yeah I must say coming from the iPhone the facebook app on win mob is terrible! Ok I know its pretty sad saying that but tbh before having my iPhone I didn't use facebook much but because the facebook app on the iPhone was such a pleasure to use I really got in to it... I'm having to use facebook on opera now.

Dump the FB app, it's utterly useless.
Use http://touch.facebook.com instead. Better, faster, and works awesome in Opera.

Thats what I have been using shame there isnt a facebook app that works though..

I'm not hugely into FB but it would of been nice to at least be able to use it as it's a preinstalled app!!

Considering the guy who developed the iphone version of facebook app fell out with apple due to its ridiculous app store approval process, they should get him to make a WM version!

Been using the touch.facebook.com for a few days now and you guys are right so much better then the app for WM... but just wondering if anyone else is having an issue with it being slow to update news feeds? Seems to be way behind at times!

ive had that problemw ith the touch site, but the main diffeerence for me between the iPhone app, is the lack of facebook chat, thats a nice feature!

Thanks for the heads-up regarding touch.facebook - didn't know about that! The winmo facebook ap is not very fully featured at all, which is a shame, because it wouldn't be a difficult application to write. That said, browsing being as good as it is on the HD2, i usually just visit the full facebook site. With pinch zooming i find it a breeze to navigate. Touch is probably a more sensible option though i guess. Just replaced my facebook ap quicklink with the facebook touch bookmark

Yeah, at the bottom is a link to "Mobile Site" which is m.facebook.com I think - that has the news feed issue fixed, but isn't as finger-friendly (it's not bad tho).
Neither of them allow you to view or tag photos very well IMO, a decent FB WinMo app would be very welcome.

facebook apps

what is the best facebook app, if there is multilabels apps for it??

They all suck, try, touch.facebook.com

using the ms facebook app from the windows marketplace, it's limited and a bit buggy but it does work for the basic stuff

Hi,
Try lite.facebook.com on your browser. It's just a lite version of the main site. I tend to use it the most. It has alot more options than the facebook app from the marketplace.
Hope this helps.

I agree. That was a good one. Had a g1 before the hd2 and babbler was one of the best facebook apps. Wish they would make the windows one the same as the iphone app tho.

Best "usefull" Facebook App

This might have been a thread in the past, but i'm not sure... feel free to direct me to the thread lol.
So anyway, i just wanna know what all of you have as a facebook app.. what facebook app has the most to offer that you choose over the others?
I personally use the facebook for android and bloo 1.5
The reasons: facebook for android- I just like the widget because I can publish my status right on my home screen and see the news feed real fast..
bloo 1.5- I use this because of the real good notification updates and of course, the facebook chat..
I know "to my knowledge" that there really isn't alot of "complete" facebook apps out there, i just wanna know what all of your insights are about using facebook.. thanks guys

I'm happy with the Facebook app. I use Nimbuzz for FB chat.

lets not start a flame war. If you don't like facebook, don't use it. If you do like facebook, use it. Some people like iPhones over Android. To each their own.
That being said, back to the topic...
I was wondering this too. The stock facebook app sucks at getting notifications. I was thinking about trying bloo. I don't necessarily need chat (ebuddy for that), just notifications.

Removed due to my stupidity...

HUH? My wife says the Android Facebook app is MUCH better and a lot faster than Facebook on her previous phone, ipony 3G.

Facebook app on android is trash.
The good news is that apparently zuckenberg has recently begun using and android phone. Maybe he'll be offended enough to get a proper app built.

I'm sorry, everyone. I guess I kinda did start flames with my comment... I just loathe Facebook a.k.a. MySpace 2.0
It's not that I don't enjoy interacting with friends, but I do that with text messages, phone calls, and real life. I mostly don't like Facebook because of:
1. Bloated, ugly interface
2. Constantly changing (not for the better)
3. Completely bullsh** privacy settings
Anyhoo...

Yes, it is complete trash. Not all posts show sometimes, your own posts don't show sometimes, posts you've commented on would disappear sometimes, the links to videos and sites don't open most of the time, you can't do a lot of the things you could do on the site, and... I don't feel like going on because I don't use Facebook at all anymore, anyway.
I say that having never owned an iAnything, too. Well, I had an iPod Nano once, but I can't stand iTunes, so I sold it.
Hopefully Zuckerberg will improve the Android app for those that use it.

as the previous posts above mine state, android fb app is trash. the iphone fb app allows you to tag photos, ability to view profile photo properly, swipe through fb photo albums (as opposed to the ****ty arrow buttons for android), event viewing, favorites tab, cant think of the other stuff off the top of my head.
they chose to develop the fb app for iphone more thoroughly than the one for android

i use a combo of android FB for widget, Bloo 1.5 for notifications and Go facebook chat pro.

The best Facebook widget I have used so far is Friendstream which is contained in the Desire Rom port. I have yet to find anything as complete in the market for stock Android. I had high hopes for the app Pure Messenger but it still has a ways to go as it currently does not indicate important info within the title of each post. For instance, a post like "thank you, blah blah blah" will lack the beginning tag Susan>Lisa giving no indication who the post is talking about. The other cool thing about Friendstream is that if you open a post with images, they open directly without going to the web site.
It's really hard to believe that there is nothing decent in the entire market for stock android.

I just use a short cut to the touch site, and fachat for chatting. Haven't cared much for the apps, but don't use facebook as much as others either.

Just downloaded the new update for the facebook android app and its a little better. I still hate that when you click on notifications it sends you to the browser

Yeah that it does, but at least now it tells you if you have any notifications. That's one thing fixed
I think in order for it to be usable though, it needs to stop sending users to the browser. If I wanted to use the browser, I would (and actually do have it bookmarked for when the app gets too annoying).
I would like to have integrated chat and a better picture uploading interface now. Baby steps haha.

i hate that photo bar down the bottom!!!

Facebook contacts sync only available with friendcaster for AOSP roms

So I recently flashed a new AOSP rom and to my surprise I could no longer add a facebook account under the accounts option. After doing some more research I found that Google has "switched" it off so it will no longer let you add a facebook account.
http://m.techcrunch.com/2011/02/22/google-android-facebook-contacts/
Friendcaster app:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=uk.co.senab.blueNotifyFree&hl=en

Only reason i liked it was cause there picture would pop up without me having to do anything but nothing i can live without

Think it has anything to do with them trying to integrate G+ more and have people use that to sync contacts ? I don't personally use G+ but do like Facebook pics in my contacts..

Well this certainly does explain why I haven't been able to fix the contact sync; I thought it was just me, lol.

I tried that once and it kept giving me the notifications over and over again for messages I received even after I read them..kind of annoying. Other then that it worked ok I guess.

Did you turn off notifications.
Sent from my PG06100 using XDA

No why would I do that? I like to know when I have a message but not over and over again for the same message I already read...

FriendStream

Sparksco is an AOSP user majorly so you bring up FriendStream to him and he'll probably just give you the middle finger

FriendStream works too, without the messages.....

There's two types of Friendstreams. There's one on Sense roms that I like and works flawlessly without the annoying notifications. Then there's another one from the market that does have annoying messages. On aosp roms you have to use the one from the market. The notifications don't always start doing that right away but after awhile they do. It's a bug in the app itself. Stop acting like I don't know WTF I'm talking about!

Yeah when I do run sense it works great. Edited OP for AOSP roms!

Facebook contact integration hasn't worked for me properly for a long time on AOSP. But this integration works fine on Sense.
Side note: One thing I learned when I worked at Facebook is that Google HATES Facebook.
Unrelated: I also noticed that Waze isn't as good at getting a GPS lock on AOSP as it is on Sense. I think that's a bug in Waze though.
