Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

I thought the latest version is 0.3

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

Yeah same problem here, got fresh 1.2 and facebrick wont start.
Hope there is fix coming.

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

Right. I know what the problem is now at least (the update to libqfacebook didn't quite go as planned), fixing it should prove fairly easy. I'll address it tomorrow, as it's quite late and I have to get up for work etc.

Sorry for the inconvenience all.

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

Excellent job for tracing the problem,,,We are eagerly waiting for the facebrik aap,,,hope to see it real quick

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

Hey woot, I just wanted to thank you for the 0.4 release... the little visual fixes make the whole app look much more polished!

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

the app when launch crashed and nothing happen

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

i was just wondering will it possible to make it like facebook for android? you have like all the menus and stuff =) this is going well so far we only have like "post" in facebrick i still love it. But was wondering about that. Thanks :]

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

is facebrik working for u now,,after pr1.2

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

Yes. It does work.

I had uninstalled facebrick (along with other apps) before updating PR1.2 - to free up space.

After the OTA update to PR1.2 I reinstalled facebrick and it works just fine. No crashes at all.

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

I installed pr1.2 already,,and after that for the first time I installed facebrik,,aap,,,,and I uninstalled and installed it again,,but still when ever I open that aap,,it directs me to the desktop..

??????/

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

Same here. The app quits after few seconds of launch.

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

Exactly,,,and do we need facebook widget on the desktop to run this facebrik successfuly,,or itself is a standalone app???????????/

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

Hmm... it's running fine for me. I installed 0.3 after flashing to PR1.2, and then 0.4 a few days ago but haven't had any trouble so far!

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

do u have to install facebook widget installed for running this face brik??????????/

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

I don't think it's a requirement, but I do have the widget installed...

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

Still no luck bro,,I uninstalled everything,,and installed back the facebook widget and facebrik,,,,when Iam clicking the icon of facebrik to open it,,,its directing me to the desktop,,????plzz help me ,,tks

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

w00t is working on it. chill

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

A fix is in the autobuilder now. Hopefully packages should be available within the next hour or so. This fixed it (for sure) on my device, so fingers crossed.

Sorry again :)

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

No, it's standalone.

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

Will you implement more feature in the future?

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

Yes, of course. As time permits. brik is also working on facebrick, under the GSOC program, and has some nice new feature additions planned - see her announcement at http://kbremeraunet.blogspot.com/2010/05/gsoc-2010.html :)

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

Hi w00t,

I've installed the latest package - it went in fine, and it starts up :D

Thanks,
Mark.

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

Great to hear!

Anyone else experiencing problems - please try reinstall or upgrade.

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

i just installed it for the first time from app manager. not working for me, the app closes after a few seconds

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

Your package information is out of date.

Open a terminal, run:
sudo gainroot
apt-get update

Alternatively, open the application manager, and hit 'Update'.

You should get prompted to install an upgrade for libqfacebook, and all should be well after that.

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

Try uninstalling it. Hitting update, (even if you don't update anything), then go and install it.

I've found that it doesn't always pick up the latest packages if you don't give it a kick.

Cheers,
Mark.

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

Or this works as well :-D

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

facebrick was installed 10 minutes ago so i assumed it was the current version. nonetheless, i clicked update and there were none. i also did the prompt in xterminal

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

Well, I'd have to guess you've been caught out by cache somewhere, because this is the problem that was just fixed. I flashed my second n900 and installed successfully there too.

Let's try confirm this. Do me a favour. Open a terminal, run:
apt-cache show libqfacebook

Copy the line: 'Version:'

It should look like: 'Version: 0.1.1-5' - if you see any number other than 5 at the end, you're running an older (unfixed) version.

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

under application details, the installed facebrick version is 0.4 and contains libqfacebook 0.1.1-4

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

Okay, that's an easier way to do it too. (I'm used to the command line, obviously :P) - this means you are indeed out of date, somehow. Be patient, and an update will hopefully show up eventually.

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

for some odd reason, putting the prompt into xterminal shows
"Version 0.1.1-5"

conflicts with what is seen if i go into application details when i try to uninstall

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

Go back to terminal, try:
sudo gainroot
apt-get upgrade

DON'T just blindly say 'yes', unless it only mentions libqfacebook. There can be instances where that does dangerous things you don't want.

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

Can you upload pics with this app? If so..to a specific album?
Thanks

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

No. But you can do this with Facebook support for the N900, from Nokia.

See also: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eC63Ywlf3I4

This requires you have the official (Nokia) desktop widget/etc installed.

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

i'm not sure if this is "only" libqfacebook, but here's what it says:

"The following packages will be upgraded:
gstreamer-tools
gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad-extra
gstreamer0.10-tools libqfacebook
4 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
Need to get 1358kB of archives.
After this operation, 201kB of additional disk space will be used.
Do you want to continue [Y/n]? "

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

Looks pretty safe. I'd say: go for it.

(But keep in mind that only you can make that decision, worst case you'll have to reflash your phone *if* something goes wrong.)

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

sounds fairly dangerous, maybe i'll just wait for the update that comes up in the near future

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

Reflashing is fairly straightforward, so it's not dangerous (except to the applications/data installed on your phone) - but this is something you *should* be keeping in mind whenever you use something in extras-devel anyway: http://wiki.maemo.org/Extras-devel

Now, bear in mind, this isn't a likely outcome in your scenario, but I never recommend something that has even a chance of backfiring without adding a disclaimer. ;)

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

@w00t Thanks - this seems to have done the trick. I have uninstalled/reinstalled Facebrick and I am please to say all is well again.
