I'm having some problem with the facebook app from Marketplace. For some strange reason, my friend's photo album won't load on the facebook app. I only see the red, green, yellow, and blue dots rotating. Sometime, those dots disappeared then turn into blank white screen.

same thing here...that facebook app is crap...dont use it.
I too have the same problem. I first had the problem with the Facebook app with the Stock T-Mobile ROM. I updated it to try and fix some problems. While it seemed to work better, I still had the problems with photos. They just don't update.
I now use a shortcut in Opera mobile to Facebook (using the latest Opera Mobile beta).

And when I upload pics using the Facebook app they look like crap... I had the Nexus One before this phone and I was amazed at the quality of the images uploaded right through the share function with my album.
I have the option setup so I can now email photos, I'll post again if that works better.
The only time i got it to work was when i was using wifi.

When I first began using my HD2 it told me to enter my FB info. Now whenever I have a photo I feel uploading I use the sense viewer and it is one click and they are on FB and they look awesome!

Hi Guys!
i've been searching for a long time but i didn't find anything...
i'm looking for a good facebook application which is like the one on the iPhone...because with the official MS Facebook App you can't comment anything
does anyone have a good facebook app for windows mobile 6.5?
I usually just use the full site, takes a while to load but works pretty good. Have you tried iphone.facebook.com?
hey
yes i'm using iphone.facebook.com at the moment...but i'm not very happy with it because the display of my x1 is smaller than the iphone's and i have to scroll all the time and it crashes sometimes
m.facebook.com works just great for me. Especially on the Opera browser, but it works great with all browsers, even PIE.
yes you're right with m.facebook.com but i don't like the design...it looks very confusing ...an that's the reason why i'm searching for an app which's like the iphone facebook app
have you tried the official Facebook app from Microsoft?

official facebook app does not show all comments on statud updates (only the latest) and IME, does not show as much content as the m.facebook.com site. I use the app for uploading pics only, and only on my Samsung Jack because they Fuze can do it the the HTC Album 2.5...
WM 6.5 with the official facebook app is great, it looks nice and even the inertia scrolling works.

I agree. I use m.facebook.com more (via FIM or Opera). But when I want to upload photos I use Office Facebook. I ditched iphone.facebook.com as m.facebook.com actually better
Hi all loving this new phone, a few bugs for me, nothing major like i had with my crappy n97.
1st off does anyone who has the facebook app have a problem viewing other peoples photos ( skipping from one to the next) mine just flashes the windows loading icon in the middle and does nothing else.
second the clock keeps flipping back an hour or so when i alternate between screens.
just a few niggles, i'm mostly happy
oh and if anyone has a link to a site where i can get some free apps that'd be nice.
Cheers
Phil.
The facebook app as a whole is entirely rubbish, and appears to have been written by a drunk monkey. Most people tend to prefer using touch.facebook.com (or m.facebook.com if you prefer a simpler interface). Add it to your bookmarks and add a shortcut to it on the homescreen and you'll barely notice it's not a standalone app.
touch.facebook.com does the job thankyou.
Same phot problem here, its indeed rubbish!
Also video upload doesn't work
I found the solution for X10. Use SE Sync instead of Google Sync and then open PC Companion on your PC then click SE Sync it should start your Browser log in there and you can edit your Contacts and set there your High Quality Pics for your Friends you must click the 2nd Icon there it shows a Pencil or somethign then add Pic and when your done click refresh right in the bottom and when you set all your Pics go to your Phone and sync your Contacts and now you have HQ Pics on Calls. When you never used SE Sync before you must first register on your Phone. Your Contact should be changed from Phone Contact or Google Sync Contact to a SyncML if its working.
Holy crap - sounds like a lot of work... but also sounds promising...
I'd rather have it just work in the first place, but thank you for providing another solution. My only concern is that when it syncs again, does it break your address book and corrupt all the entries again? Despite best efforts, I've seen this happen to a lot of people with myself being included. It's so irritating. I know it's something small, but I'm a stickler for quality and hate having 1996 quality JPEG-looking crap show up when loved ones call me

What other solution i tried everyone i found on Net this was the only one that worked for me if i set HQ Pic with Mediascape it is HQ everywhere but not in Call Screen but with this it is HQ on Call Screen too. When you Sync with SE Sync the Pic always stays HQ i dont know if the Pic stays HQ when you Sync with Google but you can try it.

I may tinker around with it again in the future. I have a replacement handset I really need to setup so maybe I'll just bite the bullet considering how I'll need to invest some time in updating it and doing some testing anyway (have had multiple replacements, trying to get an X10 without low in-call volume).
Bongd did the replacements come direct from Sony?
Has the incall volume improved at all?

I tried this method but all my pictures are to big any pointers

For my Pics it worked great all Faces are good to see and all HQ. But maybe some Pics it shows Body instead of Head becouse Pic is long or something but for mine it worked.

That sounds interesting to try. I had a look around on Google on how to do this but had no luck. Would you be able to spare a sec to explain how you set HQ Pic with Mediascape?
The album art in Mediascape is also similarly blurry which also sucks

I go to the Pic with Mediascape and then left in the bottom there is a + click this and you can choose set Contact Pic. In 1.6 it worked for Call Screen and Dialer but in 2.1 the HQ Pic is only in Dialer but in Call Screen its blurry becouse it saves the Pic as Thumbnail and when you on Call screen it make small Thumbnail bigger instead of the original HQ Pic, but thats a Android Problem becouse Google crops the Images to 96x96 dont know why they dont make it bigger like 300x300 ore something. But SE Sync take the original HQ Pic and dont change it so it stays HQ and dont make a Thumbnail or crop it. My Mediascape Album Art is good.

Try do deactive or delete Syncing on SE Site it should be in Settings and then set it up new
It worked
Thanks, I tried it, and it worked, but when I link it it to a facebook account, the facebook picture is prioritized.
What do I do
HEy you guys just go to the contact, click on edit and choose the pic on Timescape instead of the one that appears on your mail account... Easy as that

I tried that too but it still is a bit blurry after that but it is a improvement over the rest. The Problem is the Call Screen on the Rest most of the Solutions look good.

Hi devs
I have noticed this issue if I sync with FACEBOOK APP. But if I sync with TIMESCAPE, it's high res! So, only the crappy Facebook app gives low res fotos.
So, you need to LOG OFF from your Facebook app, and then add account in Timescape.
It will helps you for sure! Happy NY guys!
The Sony Ericsson sync thing works perfectly, like he said, go to your sony ericsson sync database on the web, assign a high res pic, preferably from VGA to 2MP, then, sync and the picture appears in the contact's details.
Then, click edit, scroll to the sony ericsson sync picture, click it, and set it as a the contact picture, dial it, and voila, it's not blurred AT ALL, it worked perfectly for me.
I am having a gallery issue where I select a picture and and different picture loads. Sometimes from the same album or different album. Shutting down sometimes resolves the issue or a soft reset and sometimes it does not. Sometimes I have to go into USB mode and add or delete a picture for ot to work properly again. One time the images in my download album al appeared blurry. I downloaded a picture from my email and then they all appeared normal again. Anyone else have this gallery bug?

Another one of those mind boggling simple bugs in Gingerbread/Nexus S.
Yes, I've seen similar, in that if I take a picture, it often won't show in the gallery unless I open it via a file explorer app from the sdcard.
I haven't tried forcing a media scan manually (there are apps for that), to see if that addresses it.
The Nexus S feels much more like a BETA product (software wise) than I recall the Nexus 1 feeling.

I had this exact same problem. You have to delete all of the thumbnails for your photos so that they reload. The only thing is, the thumbnails are no longer stored in the DCIM folder like they were pre-Gingerbread. Unfortunately, I don't remember exactly where they're stored - I used root explorer to find them and delete them.
/Android/data/
You will see a folder called 'com.cooliris.media' delete it. The gallery app will regenerate your album thumbs.

This problem has been reported to Google. Please visit the link and star the report to bring more attention to it!
http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=13419 Thanks.
I mean wth do we have to go through all that to see our pics... they took forever to fix the text issue they said they have a fix for which we haven't received. The fix for blurry mms is fixed thank god. Now this? Yeah the N1 did feel like a better product but the updates helped that one too. These are stupid things that shouldn't be an issue though.

This issue happens on and off; it's quite absurd. My pictures are once again not opening to the correct photos. As I've said before, it's stuff like this (among a slew of other issues and glitches) which make Gingerbread, and to some degree Android, feel like a second rate experience.
Has anyone also experienced that sometimes pictures aren't clear in the gallery? Often, the picture will come up unclear, but after a second, will be clear as it's meant to be. But sometimes the clarity doesn't happen.
Does it have anything to do with the internal memory or something again (similar to the random ringtone change issue)?
Is this yet another glitch of Android?
Edit: I should mention this is not the MMS issue which is often mentioned. I'm talking about regular photos that are taken with the Camera. Those sometimes don't clear up either.
Yeah, I get this too.
I wait until all the pics are done downloading from the SD card... then I pick the picture.

It happens to me randomly even long after the SD card has loaded.
Why is the gallery reader like this anyway, where it is blurry at first, then clear?
Promise you its not androids fault. You will never EVER have a phone with HTC SENSE do that.

My gallery just freezes when trying to load. Sometimes the newest downloaded or pictures just taken won't show up, its random.

The low res fade into higher res gallery quirk is more of a feature and is how the gallery always has shown photos even back on the nexus one. It allows quick flipping enough photos without having to insanely cache everything in full from the start. It only should take a second to flick over though.
I'm loving the nexus s gallery performance. I'm sorry to hear some aren't as thrilled.
One if the posters spoke about this stuff not happening in htc - that's rubbish, the 3d gallery acts the same there too, only worse, because oh the lack of hyper fast inand. And the htc gallery is rubbish, it struggles to even show thumbnails if you have too many pics. I speak from experience owning the desire hd, which is the most powerful htc phone to date.
The wrong photo issue is completely fixed by clearing the photo cache and then restarting the device. It didn't clear up until the restart, for some reason.
I have some issues with the gallery as well. But I must say that it performs 10X better then it did on my N1, it was sooo slow and laggy on that thing!!!
Get JustPictures! from the market, way better that Gallery3d imo, plus you can access your picasa, flickr, facebook, smugmug, etc pics from there as well.
Android Gallery sucks ... It just sucks. It does not display in high quality, 16 bits instead of 24 bits. You will see terrible color banding on gradient colors.
Google just lied when they told us everything is 32 bits on Android 2.3.
Nah, that's not true.
I hate that because HTC Sense gallery is much better.
Skip that 3D animation transition, it is an image gallery. Without high quality output, that's no good.
JustPictures is the same, it still display terrible color banding.

I'm very happy with the Gallery performance, and as has been said the low res image fading to high res is a feature of the Android gallery, it's always done that on every handset I've owned.
The gallery has it's share of quirks/bug in the NS version of it, but agreed with others, the fading is a design feature, not a bug.
Has anyone encountered the situation wherein even the application images are in your gallery?
Not sure if this is the right place to ask or maybe move it to the apps section if need be. Ever since I got the updated Gallery app through August update all my pictures seem to be imported automatically to it, what exactly do I mean by this? Whenever I launch the Camera app and scroll through my pictures through the app it shows all recent pictures on my phone, before the update it would only show pictures/videos taken through the camera app, I would like to keep it that way but haven't managed to revert it, any clues?
Wish I could answer, just installed the update and it's a disaster, what were they thinking, tiny thumbnails and you can't read the album names! Dark grey font on a black background... DOH

If you pinch out on the album view it will give you near enough the same view as before, only problem I have, as already stated, is the black text on dark grey background, although that's probably the themes fault.

So no one else lost the feature of scrolling through the in-app camera gallery and just having content taken with the camera? cause I really hate having to go through all my stuff there to find a picture I took.

No mine still works fine, although if I'm using the camera from the lock screen it will only let me scroll through the pictures I've just taken, not previous ones.

I wonder how I messed it all up lol. I just tried that way, running the app from the lockscreen and I still get every single picture on my phone.
Any Luck?
I am facing exactly the same issue.
All my screenshots, whatsapp, gallery pics and everything are populated in the gallery when I access through camera. This is highly annoying.
Earlier it was only camera pictures which were shown, is there anyway to fix this? Like installing the previous version or changing the access folder only to camera?

I found no solution, had to just deal with it. And I tried to somehow set the app to only access the Camera pictures when browsing through the camera app but no such luck.
Is this issue without any resolution yet? I know this have been posted a few months ago, I've searched everywhere but I didn't find any solution, did anyone else get some more luck than me?
