Facebook Integration, what is it, and how to get it back..

Hello everybody,
Recently I went on a hunt to find the missing link in the Facebook integration of our Topaz and Touchflo. As it turns out HTC decided to not enable it in the Topaz versions.
So what is it? What does it do? Well it takes the contacts stored on your phone, and links it to the contacts in your Facebook Profile. And what it does from there is give you their profile photos for your contacts, their birthdays, events, and a link to your own Facebook profile, with icons for new messages, pokes, notifications, etc.
Heres a few screenshots.

Now as far as how to get it running,
Personally I used XBMOD fix first and then used Bbonzz fix and it works. But I reccomend to try bbonzz's fix first as it should be the only one needed to make it work, otherwise I re-uploaded both here.
Credits go to XBMod for the VGA ports, and fixes (which sometimes work for us too. )
and to bbonzz who managed to get a fully working, installable fix for it.
Let us know what your experiences are, what works, and what doesn't. Enjoy!

Yup works, cheers

Tried the 2nd CAB first and seemed to work, get the tab but I'm not seeing any updates. Profile pics work ok tho, just don't get any updates.

Also got the tab. Seems like I could log in, but no updates or events. I tries to update the data, but no go. Any one else got this working?

Genius!! works a treat . We were working on this in the Apps thread in Topaz . Please orig poster post on there so its for all on that thread.

just seen one status update for one contact! wondering if only new updates appear after install? To be honest, wish I hadn't installed it.... it's a bit of fluff really! Not of any real use! Can I uninstall?
[EDIT]You can uninstall.... just use the normal method.[Edit]

Wow, I've been wanting this since I found out it didn't come with the phone.
If they enable the social features on the TP2 and not the TD2 that's odd. I gigure TD2 is the social phone and TP2 the business one.
Thanks!

THanks for this. I'm pretty impressed with it. It maybe a gimmick but i'm pretty happy with it.
It good to be able to link your facebook friends with your contacts and get the profile pictures...
Seems to get a little confused sometimes though...

Nice find

I've installed this but when I try to login it says login failed? Does the thing not automatically connect to the net? (I do have data connection turned off in comm manager maybe thats the reason)
EDIT: Ok got it working after turning on my data connections... it's found pictures for 2 or 3 of my contacts but for the rest it can't seem to download the pics... anyone else getting this?

Yes, I believe that you need the data connection on for it to work. I don't know why.
Status updates? really? it does those too? which screen? I have been using it to just link to profiles and get the photos.
Off subject, I can't wait for 6.5 on our TD2's with marketplace.
Edit:, oddly enough i do see statuses on contacts... but ONLY if i use the (insert real name here) letter scrolling on the contacts. And it seems very very buggy.
I hope that a DEV or even the release of the rhodium can fix this.

Yes, I have the same experience. Bizarre. I got updates on another page somewhere once. Buggy, but nice to extract the pictures. But I do wonder if it uses data everytime you open up All Contacts. Not so good for those with a limited data plan...

Tried both cab files but the facebook tab doesn't come up for me, any help?

I'd be interested to know if it connects everytime you access contacts too. I only have a limited data plan and only really want it to update from facebook when I'm connected to WiFi

It shouldn't do it only does that when you hit update afaik.

Okay so I got all the statuses and whatnot working on a Rhodium rom on the Raphael, but I can't get any of the pictures to link up. Anyone else have the same problem, and possibly found a fix for it?
Edit: Scratch that, spoke too soon, just took a while to link I guess, but I'm only getting it for one contact?

A specific Facebook application for Windows Mobile was launched todayish. OK, so it's not integrated to TouchFlo3D, but it is pretty good and offers a lot of functionality.
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/en-us/downloads/facebook.mspx

I'm trying out this new WM Facebook one you linked but seems to be really slow and hangs on me any idea why?? doesn't require a soft reset after install does it?

Having similar issues. I think the Facebook integration is fantastic and for the most part works pretty well...it's just that about 2/3'rds of my contacts don't have photos being imported. Wonder if there are any logs...? It seems to say "updating" for a contact and then time-out? Could be connection issues or maybe a friends photo is too large/not the correct format?

The WM Facebook app works fine for me, but then I'm not a 'friend junkie', so I only have about 20 friends. Maybe it struggles if you have hundreds of friends. Maybe it's time to cull all those friends that aren't really your friends, just people you once knew 20 years ago!

Hi!
I installed it yesterday afternoon, tried to log-in for a couple of hours but it only worked this morning. I have already chatted with a friend using whatsapp on iphone! Cgorki, thx for sharing.
I've been running and using it for almost 6 hours now with mobile internet always on and listening to music but when I go into battery usage this doesn't show up. Does this mean that it doesn't use battery or is there something else? It doesn't seem to drain a lot of battery because I still have about 85% left.
Thank you..

...well they obviously developed an app which charges your battery instead of draining it
I also have no problems communicating with iPhone users, also able to attach maps links, voice messages, pictures and videos

Uh, is this supposed to be distributed? I thought it's still a close beta.

When the owner provides a direct Link to the apk on his own servers, it doesn't really look like a closed beta.

Loving it. Thanks so much

Still random disconnects when sleeping. It only works after app and service are restarted.
Had it on the iphone, works great. I have been waiting for this for months and months now, but they still don't want to make it final. Either they are slow, it is just too hard to work with without the push thingy á la iphone.

well if you develop for android, you develop for more than only one device like for iphone, thats why it takes longer... btw. I can not confirm disconnects while phone is in sleep mode...
Update was released today, you can update the app via the built-in updater

Yes I noticed the update. I am using wifi only for this week. From next week on, I have a new contract with mobile data. Maybe there is a problem connecting after a while of disconnecting.

That's weird, I receive messages without ever opening it first, straight after booting and completely leaving the phone alone.
Under settings it always says service has started right on the minute that I booted my phone
*edit* Sorry I think I misread you, last night it gave me the option to install the latest version, and the change log said it fixed many random crashes, so far running great. But I'm sure you've upgraded

so far i can NOT use it, says auth failed.. any tips?

if you want the auth to run, email the support (even if the app says do not!) I did that and I got my access about 2-3 days.

mailing them will do nothing, I'm pretty sure they didn't put you on any "beta list"
you get your access just by trying to contact their servers, after hours/days your phone is successfully registered, thats what me and many other users have experienced.

I must have sent 14 messages untill I got through. Dont try it more than once, keep trying every couple of hours. Or even the next day. Once you get the auth, all reinstalls will be good to go.

Has anybody read the EULA?
It's talking about a "free trial period", and then a subscription fee per year.
Is that the same with the iPhone-app?

[How-To] Remove Verizon's trojan horse and other carriers **Spyware**

I called Verizon about an issue I was having with their service today and the rep started troubleshooting. He began to tell me about stuff in my phone stuff like RAM usage, battery %, battery health, apps running, apps that can keep your phone awake, last time charged, last time booted up, wifi connection/signal, cell signal/4G, IF YOU WERE ROOTED(void warranty even if you go back to stock before you return it), AND KERNEL VERSION.
So I got to looking at apps I disabled(with debloat tool) and some even though were disabled were still running. They were even listed in disabled in application manager. When I clicked the apps in disabled it showed that force stop was selectable which meant it was running. I want to emphasize that I used both the debloat tool floating around here and manually disabled them in application manger and they were still running.
People have mentioned that this spyware was well known, fair enough. This is how you stop some of it. Keep in mind that this is Verizons trojan and the Verizon agent assured me LG has one as I'm sure the other carriers also have.. If someone has a reason to call LG install no root firewall and see what apk they query. I think LG's app will be more hidden than MyVerizon.apk.
**EDIT 08/28/2015** I got it!!!! it's the my verizon mobile apk! I called verizon and asked for my battery health and RAM usage. I watched him query MyVerizon.apk. The first one my firewall let through and he knew everything about my phone, after that I blocked it and poof he couldn't do it. I watched him try several times after I blocked it and each failed. After he was confused because it worked the first time but none of the other times I told him the actual reason for my call. He admitted it's just like a trojan, he said it was probably is a disclosure that no one reads(including him) for MyVerizon.apk. He told me that I was very clever due to how I found it. I said I asked another agent previously before where the apk was that allowed them to see it and they all said they had no clue. The guy I just spoke to knew exactly which apk it was and said all tier 2 tech support knows it. They all knew to lie to the end user because I bet many would block it.
You can use No Root Firewall to see what app they are using. Ask your carrier about your battery health and see what app gets called on, after they tell you the battery health block the app with the firewall then ask them to check again. If they say it isn't working you found the right one, please PM me which apk it is and I'll add it to this post.
MyVerizon.apk I confirmed it is positively this one.
VZMobileSecurity.apk I think this is spyware also

I thought I debloated it pretty good....what app sends that data? Is there an app I can install that monitors data to and from and which app is doing it?
Edit: CarrierIQ didn't tell verizon if you were rooted though. Flash a custom kernel and call them and see what they say when you need to warranty it cause something non related broke.

They've been able to do this for a couple of years. They can even remotely take over your phone. When I was a tech for Verizon, we saw XXX stuff all the time on peoples phones.

This is a little concerning and borderline illegal. I would definitely like to see more work on this to find a solution that will also boot on a reboot.

Mine throws a security error at boot if I uninstall certain system apps, but I can disable/freeze them no problem. Also I have LIAinformant but I'm not on Verizon. I think it's part of LG's "smart actions" app (LG Intelligent Agent), probably tells it what to suggest. I don't use that app anyway so I disabled LIAinformant and haven't seen any problems.

**Edit** This was about my old method that I'm not using anymore! The new method causes no problem.
**old method** even disabled some of them are running. I thought disabling was stopping them too. Go into your application manager and go over to disabled and click on each one, see if any of them have force stop selectable. If any of them do it's still running. Verizon has a giant trojan horse installed that even runs while disabled. I think it's VZMobileSecurity.apk. Like I said I did other apks but I think VZMobileSecurity.apk is the trojan horse.

I got it!!!! it's the my verizon mobile apk! I called verizon and asked for my battery health and RAM usage. I watched him query MyVerizon.apk.

I record all my calls so I thought about posting my call but I don't wanna get the guy in trouble but he thought it was pretty slick how I went about it.

Nice app. Downloading now. Very interested in seeing what crap my phone is sending out

Verizon assured me LG has a similar tool and I bet all carriers do. if your not on verizon I bet you still have the same trojans. I forgot to mention earlier that when the verizon agent was querying my phone that the APK in question was asking for root(via superuser)! lol. I thought the app would look for the su binary in /system and report that the phone is rooted but it doesn't. it tries to acquire root privileges and if you hit deny they don't know your rooted. how stupid of verizon.
you know what sucks is there are a million apps that you NEED to let through your firewall like iheartradio. Iheartradio streams music from the internet so allow that. But iheartradio is constantly sending and recieving **** to facebook and amazon. why? I'm not using it it shouldn't be using my data connection right? it does. They are the hardest apps to deal with because if you block them their primary function doesn't work. apps like es file explore are constantly trying to use data for who knows what, I'm assuming advertising. They are easy because there is nothing it needs online, block it and be done. secure settings? block it and be done. You'll hate the ones actually need to be allowed through your firewall though because you can't block apps like that because it needs the internet to do it's job you downloaded it for. look below how many times iheartradio is trying to talk to facebook and amazon. I am not logged in with facebook nor am I using amazon, yet it's trying to send them data.

Kinda off-topic, but have you ever heard of MyAndroidTools? It's an app that lets you control the activities your apps are allowed use. If you experiment with it a little, you could probably block most of that stuff.

I think this firewall app needs its own thread. Using it now and blocked a bunch of stuff. Screw that. I have Amazon Store and everything DISABLED yet it is still trying to call home. Not cool.

I get the error "VPN unavailable on this version of OS" when I try to start the firewall.
I tried setting IPV4/6 in the APN as suggested in the reviews, but that didn't fix it.
I was able to use AdGuard in VPN mode before I rooted and switched to AdAway so I know VPN did work at one time.
Anyone got any ideas? It's too nice outside for me to troubleshoot my phone today!
IHeartRadio is probably just using Amazon Web Services to stream, so no big worry there. It is reporting your every move to Facebook though, but who isn't these days.

Never mind!
Something I blocked with Debloater was preventing VPNs from being created. I did a batch unblock so I don't know what it was exactly, but I would guess it was one of the Qualcomm files related to networking.

just root and freeze with titanium backup. problem solved...

I hope you make a thread about it and I'll contribute. People got butthurt over callerIQ but this they don't care about?!?! CallerIQ pretty much got advertising type stuff the trojans our phones are infected with do so much worth. I caught Verizons, LG has one that is much more in depth obviously. Sprint, ATT, and Tmobile I'm sure has one just as bad but no one cares. They can void your warranty when you call about anything! They can decide tomorrow that they will query the phone once a day to find out if people are rooted so they can void warranties! I'm sure police don't need warrants to get your phone data if in paragraph 10 article 9 number 7 of the disclosure says they can share your data with whoever they want and I'm sure it does!.
Is everyone OK with their phone using their own data plan they pay for sending off personal data to everyone!
Buddy you start a thread about the firewall I'll be there with you.

Possible Quality Control issues with ZTE Axon 7

Pros:
beautiful screen and overall a nice phone, got headphones with pre order. and am excited about the prospects of a new flagship phone.
Cons:
Camera stopped functioning today, it was delivered at 4:10pm July 27th, it is now 5:05am July 28th as i write this. Customer service is closed and i've already gone through wiping the cache, formatting and factory resetting the phone. removing my sim card and SD card.
formatting again, clearing the cache on the camera app
then resetting the phone and clearing the cache and reinstalling.
i even went so far as to stop google from recovering my downloads from the playstore to be on the safe side and insure that the phone was completely stock out of the box.
and i got "Unable to connect to camera,Camera has been disabled because of security policies or is being used by other apps" the phone and the flashlight are not functioning. and installing 3rd party camera apps doesn't fix the issue.
Will follow up if ZTE is able to give repair steps that don't result in mailing my phone back to newegg.
Other Thoughts:
Would not recommend to anyone at this current time, as this same issue plagued another phone of ZTE's called the ZTE max and seems to have followed to their newest flagship
if anyone has a fix for this sort of issue please let me know otherwise ill do a write up based on what ZTE provides to me later on today

Do you think it's possible that you revoked its permission to use the camera? I would check the app manager.
Other possible solutions I found:
* Turn off OK Google detection from any app
* If you can boot into a recovery mode, wipe the cache partition
* Turn off face detection smart lock
* Make sure camera shortcut on the lock screen is enabled
* Remove any Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync account you might have setup

I haven't revoked permissions although i did check again. i formatted the phone a total of 6 times and had it bare bones. however when the camera doesn't work neither does the flashlight. so a tail tail sign in the past has been if both dont work. an RMA is needed. hopefully ZTE will be able to help sort this out so i can amend the post content to reflect their customer service.

One last thing to try: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.lrodlor.camless
I looked up the error message and it seems to have something to do with device policy. This app should be able to change the camera policy.

Let me know how that goes.

It didn't work but.
I hope its resolved relatively soon as well.. i wanted to post pictures so people knew i wasn't just slandering the phone or anything. i have tried different camera apps. but they dont work. nor does the Flashlight feature in the quick launch. i looked up old threads on similar issues and saw people doing things from disabling security certificates (all of them manually because the clear option was greyed out.) and i spent about 20 minutes doing that while on hold with newegg since ZTE was closed. hopefully this issue will be a fluke and it wont be the same with the second and third phone i have coming.... one tomorrow and one tuesday because that would be disheartening.

Gee, read the ZTE USA forum and it seems there are several random issues plaguing some users, and not small issues, hopefully software based and will be remedied with updates. I will do a wait and see approach before I order, I'm in Australia and will have to use a post shipping house, as not being released here, so quick if any warranty maybe problematic. Will want to make sure everything is honky Dory before committing to a purchase. Maybe back to opo3 if not resolved.

It didn't work but.
I hope its resolved relatively soon as well.. i wanted to post pictures so people knew i wasn't just slandering the phone or anything. i have tried different camera apps. but they dont work. nor does the Flashlight feature in the quick launch. i looked up old threads on similar issues and saw people doing things from disabling security certificates (all of them manually because the clear option was greyed out.) and i spent about 20 minutes doing that while on hold with newegg since ZTE was closed. hopefully this issue will be a fluke and it wont be the same with the second and third phone i have coming.... one tomorrow and one tuesday because that would be disheartening.

Did you get the problem camera/flashlight resolved?
Thank you

The only issue with this phone I've read about is the dust inside the camera lens. I have some particles there but I don't think it affects the picture quality yet.

And the broken OIS (incredibly common) and the lack of an antibricking measure in place and the screen dying because it didn't like your hand's humidity... ZTE replaces the phone with all of these problems luckily. But when they have stock.

Samsung Galaxy A9-6 Help Needed

As'slamu Allekum (Peace to all of you)
I've recently bought Samsung Galaxy A9-6, it's totally genuine nothing have been altered, and after using a month or like so I've started getting that annoying screen, every time i receive a call or missed call it shows up saying caller ID, I've formated my cell once and it had gone now its back again and its hell of annoying,
things I've done
1-I never install apps out of play store
2- I never install any caller ID App (as it doesn't work in Pakistan yet)
3- I've formatted my cell and installed all apps (which i always had on all my Android devices but this problem never occurred)
4- There is no such Caller ID app in bloatwears or apps (in settings section)
5- when i click the links on that screen it takes me to a website page which is whosthat dot com
6- I've Googled it and it says DU caller ID (although I've never installed it)
Info about my cell
Samsung Galaxy A9-6
Model: SM-A9000
Software version: 6.0.1
Baseband Version: A9000ZHU1BQE1

Same issue
I've been having the same issue with my Samsung galaxy s8. I have also not downloaded any Caller app or so, but this screen keeps popping up. Been trying to find a solution with no luck so far

I've also sent an email to that address today. I hope they reply and someone has a solution, because it is really irritating.
Edit: I will be sure to inform you if I get any response

I've already formatted my cell once, but it was only a waste of data, the app was gone for few hours, but shortly it was back ?
Isn't there any Dev? Who can help us.

I really hope there is someone who can help. It is annoying me so much. I also made a thread and there is someone else who is having the same issue too

Hey buddy I think I have solved it, it's a theory which is working till now, I had once visited TrueCaller online portal from my Chrome browser on my cell, although I had given consent for my Microsoft ID i think i had enabled some sort of notification thing or so, previously I had removed true caller web site in settings from my chrome, now again last night I formatted my cell and installed fewer apps but I haven't synchronized my chrome bookmarks and till now the cell is working fine, just a theory might be wrong but it has been 12 hours my cell is doing fine. test it and then let me know, please. I'll let you know if this theory fails.
thanks

I do not have this problem but I've experienced similar things in the past when you get very annoying adverts that prevent phone from sleeping whilst it's connected to a charger.
It usually come with an application. UC browser is very notorious for this. Turning off notifications from such apps could help.

Hi!
My mom met same problem at xiaomi redmi 3.
Solved it today, but have no garanties that it solved forever, but i hope.
I'm sure that it's connected with Caller DU, because if you press "private policy" in window after call, it opens page from DU caller's site.
Then i just install that f**in DU Caller, turn off all of it's features and then delet it and now i have no annoying popup messages.
just in case, sorry for my english

I had never installed any caller app on my phone still I started receiving those popups and in privacy policy, I read the email address, emailed them and luckily within few weeks they replied but was not sufficient as they didn't tell me the root cause neither the solution was helpful, so i checked all apps one by one and bingo, it was chrome, just didn't restore chrome bookmarks after factory reset and everything came okay
