Timescape and Facebook - XPERIA X10 General

Hey people
I was wondering if any of you have set up timescape to use your facebook accounts?
I have mine set up but it only pulls down friend's statuses. Is this what everyone else's does too or do you get other notifications as well (such as "Blah Blah has added you as a friend" messages)?
Cheers

Nah it only informs you of status updates and anyone who sends you a message (not a wall post). Thats all it does.

I got a notifcation when someone added me as a friend too - but i think that was probably the facebook app rather than timescape. You certainly dont get all of the facebook notifications though (eg. someone commenting on a thread that you liked).

hmm I don't get tiles when someone sends me a message on Facebook either though :-\
I wonder if it will be possible to put custom feeds into Timescape soon, then you could just pass it the notifications/news feeds

facebook pics intergrated to contacts gone after removing timescape!!!!
hi there.... juz though to post it on this thread instead of creating a new one...... i lost all my facebook pics which was integrated to my contact from removing the timescape usinf titanium... i would like to knw if any1 has got this problem... or hav i done something wrong???

Personally I find timescape rather useless and wiped it from my phone....I honestly feel it does more harm than good....just slows your phone down.
Anyways, just my thought on timescape

I too hav the same thought... But i wanna know will it remove the facebook pics I hav got in my contact if I remove timescape.

i get the pics and fb status when syncing them
but also using facebook sync app
no high res pics tho

As far as I can tell, the timesape pictures all disappear, and eventually the lower res ones appear from the Facebook app. It's been a couple of weeks though and many of my contacts are still blank... I could re set them if I wanted but it would take AGES lol.

I get status updates, friend requests & added photos from ts

I guess I will install the timescape again.... I need quality pics in my contact through fb

Good luck; it won't reinstall from titanium, and navigating to the apk and clicking doesn't seem to work either. I'm sure there IS a way, but so far I haven't been bothered to find out.
I'd reinstall if I could be told an easy way, tbh I have not noticed any improvement in performance from removing it and the downside is that I can't update status to Twitter and Facebook at once, which although I didn't do it very often, it is a con to no discernible pro.

Anybody got problem "Facebook cannot login" with Timescape lately?
I think there are possibility that facebook change their login method or auth, that could make Timescape not working. And we just have to wait until SE release update for Timescape.
My last facebook sync is 2 days ago, and now whenever i update, it says "Could not login"

timescape is suck. i freeze all timescape service using titanium backup donate. timescape made contacts picture stretch. its ugly. i just enable facebook & gmail in my phonebook.

facebook and mediascape

Ok so i know that there have been a few posts on the subject of timescape but i couldnt find any info on this in particular. my question is whether or not when in timescape and you open an event someone posted from facebook and then try and comment on it, instead of directing you to facebook through the facebook app it directs you through your browser. is there anyway to change this so you are taken to your facebook app?

sorry the title should say timescape. not mediascape.

I'm not sure of an answer to this, but I haven't found a way yet.
By "event" do you mean status update? Or are you getting other events on Timescape too? This is a question I have asked on another forum but got no answers.
The answer is short... "no".. you can't.. at least not in this version.
Yes I did mean an update I guess. Timescape syncs and puts up the newest "updates" from people associated with your facebook account. Anyway that is annoying. Im also p'd with Timescape not syncing gmail emails. What exactly is up with that??? I set up my gmail account on my "Email" app just so that it would show up on timescape and of course now whenever I get an email I have to delet it twice, once in gmail and once in email. I hope they get this sorted out with the update. Im going to fire off an email to SE about it. Hopefully others have too. Haven't played with mediacape much but from what im reading ill be drafting another email to SE for that too. But other than that I have to say that despite my initial concerns about the phone I am quite happy with it.
Cheers

timescape just crapped on me

so i was looking at timescape and my twitter updates didn't have a picture, just a blank head exactly like the ones from my contacts.
i thought there was just a small issue. so i delete my twitter account and now i can not sync with my twitter account. this is very weird. i have 2 twitter accounts but my main account (the one i had been using with timescape) does not sync anymore, timescape doesn't even let me set up the account! however, it lets me set up my other twitter account fine.
anyone else got this issue?
i get an "Authentication failed... Connection failed error screen"
This just happened to me now where none if the pictures are loading, and when I click on an article nothing happens. It's beginning to annoy me.

i'm thinking it's twitter's fault but then again why would 1 account work and not the other? doesn't make sense.
same situation as arctic since this afternoon.

lol status.twitter.com just stated that they are having issues. LOL i guess i'm too paranoid with this phone.

can't see them yet either
well I still can't login with Twitter. every time I setup Twitter I still get the same error message.
I'm glad its not just me.
I've been trying for about 20 minutes last night. Even reset my password and tried again. Get into Seesmic OK so I've left it a while...
Still no luck yet though
I can't see twitter pics either.
We can exclude the phone bugs now ... pretty much the problem is on twitter side.
so it still available issue. I even formatted thy phone and even repaired it with update service. timescape will not allow me to login. I just hope Twitter didn't change anything and screwed up timescape.

maybe Twitter is forcing us to use their official app? its been like 24 hrs and I still can't login and still with same error messages
twitter is back.

[Q] Facebook Friendlist and Google Contact?

Hey all,
Does anyone know a direct or indirect way to import FB friendlist to the x10 contacts, then merge them with Google contacts (Same as in HTC Sense).
I did manage to link 3 of my Google contacts to their FB account manually (Contact->Edit->Link Contact). Though, I still didn't get everything from this linkage, almost nothing other than the status. It didn't import my friends' display pics and albums, not even their special events like Birthday. I am sure there is a way somehow to do so. Does anyone know it?
Thank you
no one knows?
wait until 2.1 is out. 1.6 doesn't have this feature. my bro Moto CliQ, i also tried on LG GW620. But Nexus One can do this as its a 2.1 features.
That is good, I am looking for this feature too as I used to have it in my HD2. So now, I only use the SyncMyPix to sync the facebook profile photo and link to my contact.

Then I have nothing to do but waiting :s
I thought there would be a solution through Google's, Facebook's, SonyEricsson's pages.

Running a test on SyncMyPix right now
That was OK, thanks for the advice.. Still not quite the complete process I'm looking for.

Two Facebook apps...

Hi, it's my first post here. I've got a brand new Desire HD, unlocked, and I've noticed something strange.
I think it's strange because on my previous device (a Desire) it acted different.
I've got two Facebook apps installed (by default): Facebook (for android) and Facebook for HTC Sense. The first is version 1.3.2, the latter is version 1.0. Now, on the old Desire the version 1.3.2 was installed from the market ON TOP of the Facebook for HTC Sense, so there was only one Facebook app.
I cannot unistall both of them, so it's somehow boring.
Anyone noticed that too? Is it normal for the Desire HD? (well, I don't think it's pretty normal, because the device sometimes asks me to link 2 equals Facebook, one on normal facebook and the other on facebook htc sense, contacts together )
Thanks for any opinion and advice.
I know exactly how you mean.
I've also tried to link my contacts to Facebook, but it says I have no contacts, yet Facebook is set up on my device. Confusing.
New HTC Sense sucks really!

I always set the device to use Facebook for HTC Sense to sync my contacts, then disable the official facebook app(only disable the contact sync).
Thats always worked for me, sometimes (on my hero) the contacts didn't sync immediately but they always did eventually.
Make sure you're logged into both, in settings>accounts and sync.
@ Meesayen: you shouldn't have two facebook icons, I only have facebook and friendstream. Try either uninstalling the official facebook and reinstalling, if not then a hard reset would most likely sort it..
i've got this problem too, although one of the first things i did when i turned the DHD on was to download the facebook app, not realising it was already on there. but thats not the thing thats bugging me the most. the biggest gripe i've got right now is getting notifications to pop up whenever i get a facebook notification. i only know someone has written on my wall, for example, when i open the FB app and it refreshes.
has anyone figured out how to get facebook notifications to pop up in the taskbar?

Install Tweetdeck for free or F+ for other notifications like birthdays.

haha! i forgot about this. for some reason when i was using a blackberry my email notifications had been turned off on facebook. they come through fine now. still not ideal, but i can live with it.
another question i had - whenever i open up a notification through the facebook app, it always launches the page in a browser and not the app. is this just me? now and then i'll get to see someones wall in the app but 9 times out of 10 it launches in the browser.
Although I don't have my DHD yet I woulser if you can use bloo I currently use it and think its the best fb app but wonder if it will mess with sense fb

hi guys,
i set up both facebook apps (facebook for android and facebook for sense), same with twitter.
but my problem is, everytime my device is syncing with facebook/twitter, it updates my contact pictures with the one from facebook and if there is nothing, with the ones from twitter.
i can manually set to use the phone contact picture, but everything is gone after the next sync.
i think facebook/twitter for htc sense is causing this problem. is there anyway to stop that something is changing my contact pcitures?
is there a setting in the accounts & sync tab? couldnt find any
any ideas?
thanks a lot so far.
it looks like the problem is gone since i got my phone rooted...could it be the reason or just luck?

[Q] Facebook app sync

Hi everyone! I have a Milestone 2 and recently I became tired of motoblur social apps, so I downloaded the twitter and facebook original apps. The problem is that facebook app doesn't sync my contacts based on my friends. If I go Menu>Accounts and try to add the facebook account from the facebook app (not the fb icon from Motoblur), nothing happens (I just keep cliking the icon and nothing happens). If I go on facebook app Menu>Config>Other settings, it's empty, and there should be the sync options... Does anyone know an idea to fix it?
Another problem is my contact linking names, and I believe you are aware of this. If I link, for example "Gabriel Avignon" with "gdeavignon", the contact name will be shown "gdeavignon", which is ridiculous. Is there a way to fix that, like replacing the contacts app (BlurContacts.apk)? If there is, where can I find a right pack for that?
Thank you ppl!
I know all about the drama... As far as I know there's no fix.
The Facebook app syncs only on specific devices with the Facebook app preinstalled afaik (Milestone 1 is one of them).
The contact list bug annoyed the hell out of me ass well. For now I'm not using blur anymore but seesmic. Love it so far.
You might want to try to bug Motorola with it...
I see, thank you! But is seesmic able to contact syncing? I looked for it and found no option on the app..
Motorola is disappoint me =p. I'm still hoping it will release gingerbread update for M2. Whatever..
No seesmic can't do that. Sux indeed. You might want try to get a hold on a OG Milestone Facebook.apk. You might be able to sync contacts and the functionality remains after upgrading.
Ok, I'll try or continue with this motoblur till motorola release the new firmware WITH GINGERBREAD please -.- thank you very much
Just remove motoblur app from facebook app list, also remove facebook from motoblur account and then try to add the facebook again. It's work for me after facebook update last night.
