Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

I read the whole thread and I must say really good job w00t!! i am waiting till it hits the repositories too.

cheerz!

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

Now in extras-devel non-free (till the issues get sorted with autobuilding).

Thanks for all your hard work w00t :)

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

downloaded it, took while to get correct user and password. Its looking good, hope more features are added.

good work!

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

Manually installed it... Works... Flawlessly! Great work w00t!! :)

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

Downloaded it from the repositories. Working flawlessly... keep up the good work!

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

Good job w00t

Here's my thoughts to date;
- Would like ability to auto-refresh, after a user chosen set period of time
- Be nice to have the ability to reply/like to friends posts (wihin the app, without being re-directed to Facebook)
- Be nice to have the ability to upload pics and video
- Also ability to view friends pics and video...maybe when selected, opens the default N900 video player/photo viewer?

It would be nice to use just one app, to read all friend updates from Facebook and Twitter, and be able to post to both in one simple update...or select to send a post to just one of them...

Would love to see an app that takes TweeGo's beauty/animations, witter's features/functions and Facebricks Facebook functions, and merge them all into one.

Otherwise, great job to date, keep it up!

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

Will a future update automatically install all the necessary files?
(for us non linux literate people)
Can't wait to try it!

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

When the program will be in the maemo.org repositories app manager will install all the dependencies of the program and when PR 1.2 appears (if it appears some day) the dependencies on the program will be installed in the core of OS.

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

if possible on facebook 'posted by N900' with a small image of the n900 like the blackburys and other devices have although i guess this is integration on facebooks part.....

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

installed it on my N900 but it can connect and i dont know how to reset parameters ... where are config files ?

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

Just installed it from extras-devel and it's all working nicely here! Nice work :)

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

cool app I look forward to some new features in the future :-)

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

where are stored the login info ? because even after logout and re login, it doesn't re-ask for permissions and i dont see in facebook.com where i could fix it ....

help !

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

I'm currently using the facebook plugin for conversations, it works a treat.
whenever someone send you a facebook IM it just pops up in conversations. you can then do a "merge contact" and add their facebook details to their contact card.

:)

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

Almost great app. :)
Is there a way to get "special characters" to go through too?
In Finland we use å,ä and ö. Those doesn't go through when doing status updates.

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

Haven't installed it yet but does Facebrick have IM functionality? If so, I am currently using Jabber for Facebook IM functionality - will i need to disable this in order to use the Facebrick IM (if it has this function)

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

you can use the facebook plugin for Conversation & Contacts with Hermes

it works fine

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

As mentioned earlier in the thread, a lot of the problems with entering user/password are related to Qt, and will be fixed by PR1.2 as a result. :)

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

This is a planned feature.

This is a planned feature, and I have *started* some very early work towards doing exactly this. It's still a fair way off though. :)

I don't think I'll be duplicating this functionality as it's already available via the n900 itself. If you install the Facebook plugin, you can 'share via service' and choose Facebook. If you need more help doing this I'm sure someone can help you out?

A nice idea. I'll look into how practical it is. :)

I don't want to commit to that at this early a stage, but perhaps. I usually think that it is nicer to have multiple applications than to have to try dumb them down to the common denominator, though.

(What I'd really like to see is a Twitter application that allowed use of an identi.ca account at the same time, but that's another note)

Thanks for your feedback!

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

If you look at your wall, there is a "via NokiaN900". I don't know why Facebook aren't showing this on the newsfeed too. I swear they were for a while the other day. :(

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

Hi there,

What's the problem you're trying to solve?

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

This is a bug, already fixed in the next update. I hope to release it this week.

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

Brilliant app w00t
Thanks for sharing with us.

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

@w00t: my problem is that FaceBrick doesn't retrieve my newsfeed but it can post on facebook however.

and it shows me an error banner : "error loading newsfeed 94 (uid in the where clause must be the session user)"

so i want to reinitialize the settings because just login out doesn't seems to do it.

or maybe i could set privilieges for FaceBrick directly on my facebook.com profile ?

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

If you can post, then all the permissions are correct, so I'm just doing something wrong.

I'll try release a build to try track down these problems today or tomorrow.

If you'd like to test that for me, that would be a big help.

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

ok i can test, i can even debug and help you : i'm c++/qt4 developper and linux confirmed user so i could help you. And i could help you for the UI too because ergonomics and design are my hobbies ....

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

Same problem here.

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

I think I've found the problem with newsfeed not loading for some people.

I've fixed what I *think* is the problem, and will deliver an update (0.1.1 if you want) with the fixes I've made so far, since this is affecting a few people now.

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

v0.1.1 released!

Also known as the 'not a paper bag no not me' release.

Now available via extras-devel (non-free for facebrick binary still, since I haven't sorted out packaging there properly - libqfacebook is in free.)

As it's in the repos, you shouldn't need to go to the website mentioned in the original release post, but I will push updated packages there anyway shortly.

Fixes
- FIXED: some users are unable to view their newsfeed. I wasn't able to test this myself, but I'm confident I found and fixed the problem.
(affects: lexi1987 @ tmo, Jimmy Conway @ tmo, xav @ tmo, TheBootroo @ tmo)
- FIXED: Newsfeed contains duplicate items after every update
- FIXED: Non-english characters (øæ etc) don't work when updating status
(via @fluffis)

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

you know what would be nice, portrait mode (auto rotate) :D

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

Will come when PR1.2 is released.

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

i done the update, logged out, re-logged in and ...... it DOESN'T work :-(

i think it have old params stored somewhere....

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

This is actually most likely my bad. I screwed up the packaging. I'm reuploading it now.

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

ok, i'm waiting...

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

It's properly in the repositories now.

Make sure you get libqfacebook-0.1.1-2 installed when you run updates.

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

HAM tell me that libqfacebook package doesn't exist

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

Open xterm:
sudo gainroot
apt-get update
apt-get install facebrick libqfacebook

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

thanks for that got it downloaded but when i try logging in it comes up with error

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

i've updated through app-manager and now it works fine. nice app!

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

What error?
