As in the iphone facebook they have LOCATION SERVICE. Android doesn't have it. Does any one know about the development or the availability of a good software for it?
Thanks
Umm the latest version of the Facebook client has Facebook Places built in.. Update your client..

I find it frustrating that the facebook panel doesn't provide chat, opera doesn't support facebook chat via the website. I'm just curious to know what facebook chat programs you guys are using.
Palringo has support for Facebook chat.
Facebook doesn't provide a public API for Facebook chat quite yet. What people have done is reverse engineer something and are using it to enable Facebook chat functionality. I'm sure Sony Ericsson wasn't interested in all that work.
there is an app here to do so: FacebookIM
Thanks guys

I looked into it initially I didn't want to instal NET CF 3.5 but i went ahead and made the jump.
Facebook Chat for Xperia X1
i know this one is old, but just to keep it updated for searching users..
the software is now called FIM (Facebook Instant Messenger) and no longer requires updates to the .net framework that comes with the xperia (2.0)
free download of fim available at http://www.mosko.mobi
Palringo with Facebook support really is the best to me because you don't have to rely on a single app just for FB chat - it's built into a multi-protocol IM client which you would have a good reason to already have running in the background. Why run another program?
Just asking but if anyone has the Mytouch 3G from T-Mobile how would we set up Exchange Email?
lololololololol
Alright so I figured some info out the box the current mytouch only has POP3 and IMAP emails at the moment hopefully we'll receive an OTA with a redesigned Email app that will support exchange. Maybe if we were to get the Email apk from those who have the Magic? If anyone has it I would be more than happy to put it on my phone to test it out.
a couple of apps to sync with MS exchange
there's currently a couple of applications that sync with MS exchange.
- Roadsync: Sync mail and contacts. Free app. It works ok, but is a free beta, and taking a look to their website, is easy to guess that in the future won't be free.
- Touchdown: Nice design. Syncs Calendar,contacts & mail but this one is not free. Just 5 days to try.
Both apps work with push mail.
Let's hope in future updates, Google changes his mind and include Exchange mail in the native mail app.
In my opinion, this is the weakest point of this device for a kind of enterprise user like i am.
For now, i think thats all we got

The thing is, with the myTouch, it specifically states on the box that it supports "work" email, assuming it will, on release, support Exchange.
Well it doesnt say it on the box, but online it does say it on the website. Im using touchdown but not wanting to pay $25 to get my work email. But I heard maybe if someone has the Magic email.apk It would work, ill try it if anyone has the apk please post and ill try it so we can see if the same email app will work on the Mytouch 3G.

HTC coded their own version of the exchange sync and included it on the HTC Magic's released in Asia. From what I hear, it is completely functional and should be on the ones released in the US as well. When someone identifies that they have it available, please post a small review of its use in the US. This is the only thing preventing me from going to the Android platform permanently.
the yahoo settings are not included in android for one reason or another.
i know theres an app for yahoo mail but its not the greatest one, and its not embedded in the system messages.
i found a setup instructions somewhere on the internetz but this is the 5th time i change the android build and im sure many people has as well.
is it possible to include the working settings for yahoo mail in the future builds or update the current ones with yahoo settings.
needs to be posted in the general forum
this is a request for android builds, its related to android development...

Yahoo mail works fine...the only snag is the free account (that I'm guessing you've got) doesn't support POP3...you need to upgrade to a Yahoo plus account ($19.99 yr) to enable it to work properly...
well there are settings online that i have to enter from pop 3 to IMAP.
but it would be cool to have them already built in
Hi,
Upgraded to the new version of Froyo 'Android 2.2 (FroYo) On HTC [03 Sep 2010] (V1.6) ' and when I go to add account, I choose Facebook, and after a slight pause, returns to the General synch settings page, but no Facebook.
Worked fine on previous release of 2.1.
I downloaded Facebook from Market.
Any advice would be appreciated, possibly I have the wrong version for the phone??
Same here,
Could this be because of a 'non-existing' link between the sync settings and the facebook app?
(Maybe because of some recent facebook app update?)
The facebook app itself works by the way, (notifications, widget, app etc) But it would be nice to sync contacts etc as well (A)
It doesn't work in mine either. (UK O2 Streak with official 2.1 update.)
Hopefully it'll be fixed soon as I liked how it automatically downloaded a profile picture for every contact in my phone.
A little reading may have a clue...
Althought I cannot confirm, it appears there's 2 versions fo facebook available for us.
Facebook for Android or HTC Facebook for Sense. I recon I must have had HTC Facebook before which does synch the contacts..
Anyone confirm this??? Anywhere to download and test HTC Facebook for Sense??
Facebook Contact Sync
Hi Guys,
I'm now in XDANDROID FRX04 with the latest facebook from the market and have the same problem, facebook does not sync the contacts.
Does someone make it work?
Does someone have a working apk of HTCFacebook?
Does not work for me either with XDAndroid FRX04 or Froyo X Red.
Right now i am using: SyncMyPix to sync Facebook contacts on my phone until this problem is resolved.
If the problem is between facebook app and phone contacts, perhaps it's because google blocked that feature. If it's between the app and facebook, no idea, it works for me.
Edit: NVM, I see what's the problem and dunno why
Keep it in the related thread
Excess threads muck up the forum.
Hi,does anyone have an issue with adding Facebook account to the list of accounts under the "Account&Sync" setting? Each time I select the Facebook icon,it doesn't do anything which makes it impossible to create the FB account. I'm trying to make my Facebook contacts available/visible in the stock android contact app just like the HTC phones
Same problem here.
Sent from my LG-P500 using XDA App
same here...
i think the facebook app is not compatible fully to honeycomb
cheers guys,i thought as much i.e. the fb app not being compatible
will the facebook will be compatible, because it's suppose to be SOCIAL NETWORK Friendly, (social jogger...)
so should be 100% facebook compatible, but the problem come from facebook as well so far the latest version is not stable.
both of part have to works on it.
I ll wait.
Google has specifically mentioned that Facebook account sync (contact sync) has been disabled in 3.0 and upwards due to privacy issues which facebook has not addressed.
