[Q] Apps not connecting to FB - Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am connecting to internet via wifi. One more problem though, I tried using applications like contapps and Phonebook 2.0, but when i try to authorize the app with facebook, it cannot connect to facebook.
I get the error as page not available.
Facebook app for android and web access for FB works fine, but from inside other apps I cant connect to FB to fetch Data.
Please help, not able to use any apps that fatch fb data.
-------------------------------
Update: other apps like egreetings are also not able to connect with Facebook.

Connecting to Facebook via Contapps
Hi Prakash,
I just saw your message about not being able to connect to Facebook via Contapps, can you specify some more details about your problem, when you go to Settings->Tapps->Facebook Tapp and click connect there should be a window opened with the Facebook login page, are you getting a "Page not available" error inside that window?
What type of phone do you have? and what version of Android (2.1? 2.2? with HTC Sense?)
I hope I'll be able to help you and we can solve this issue quickly and you will be able to enjoy your contacts
You can also contact me directly at support at contapps dot com
Thanks
Shay

Think this may be a Steak problem, can't connect to Zynga poker myself, it appears to open up a browser window and receive a browser error before dying.
Using official 2.2

Yes, this is the exact problem happening when connecting by tapp.
Also the same thing happens with other apps which try to connect to FB.
Using Official dell 2.2.

Thank you guys for the information, we will look into the Dell Streak problem, and I'll post an update as soon as we have more information.
It looks like it's Facebook SDK problem (the window and what's inside it is not part of Contapps, but part of the Facebook authentication problem), which can explain why other applications can't connect as well, and I'm hoping it'll be fixed soon
Enjoy your contacts!

Any update on this??
Not being able to connect to FB is so annoying !!
FB data fetching is one of the basic facility required in a smartphone these days..
Missing out on so many great apps because of this, feels I am not using Android, but some crappy OS..

Which version of 2.2 are you using? Earlier official ones had the redirect problem and I found that to affect facebook apps.

Galaxy Tab Email Client Beta 2

ok folks just finished playing with this for the moment, hows about a galaxy tab email client for the streak
few issues in here though at min , they are listed below,
What is working?
Gmail Setup(also through "Other" setup as IMAP")
Gmail mail loaded
Gmail can send mail
Logging working so it keeps track of what has been sent/received
Rotating to portrait works
Notifications
Yahoo and Hotmail(possibly as well as gmail)
Conversation mode
Deleting messages
Switching between folders within mailbox(click on INBOX)
Exchange Email Fixed
Refresh Button Added
Issues
pop email accounts will add but never show emails, use imap instead as this should work.
ill probly play further with this also, and thanks to celljunkie for helping out this little port
link to the update zip: http://downloads.streakdroid.com/djsteve/tabmail.zip
Had this on my Samsung Captivate earlier and it was very bad. After about 3 days it would just crap out totally.
The only good email.apk i found on the samsung hardware was the lastest email.apk in the JPY roms that are 2.2.1
I think you maybe disappointed putting all this work in and the tab email sucks.
Steve you are a one man wrecking crew! Keep up the great work!

yeah - did it via clockwork - super easy. I tried the beta 1 version last night which was a manual install, but that shouldn't matter... beta 2 installs via clockwork.
ok ive installed the new email client, however i am slightly confused, i just wish to confirm that this just replaces the defult email app, and so there would be no additional email application other then this?
yup just found out for myself.lol
one additional question does anybody know the correct settings to set up a hotmail email account?
seems to keep force closing on me
fixed it, yes you must have them all as imap or it will force close, but wow- this is a much better email client than the standard streak email- and better than gmail app too- would be nice to have a widget that can work with it tho

Solution stolen from modaco forums Tab email client thread(johnston in particular):
"
try setting up your hotmail as exchange using m.hotmail.com and then just use your full email address and password.
you should be able to do this for hotmail.com and .co.uk accounts just make sure m.hotmail.com is your server setting.".
I was struggling with hotmail until used these settings. now it just works.

also from modaco, lol.
Per steve for FC:
"clear data in manage apps"
thanks just done it, with active sync, that messed me up a lil b4 too as because i kept removing the "/" when writing the username or domain section which was silly of me. but yes works brilliantly now

I tried but it says unable to connect to server. Do I use the same (mail.comcast.net) in the imap area and same for (smtp.comcast.net)? It seems when I do a manual setup I get unable to connect. When I do a auto setup it works but unable to receive but could send mail.

Anyone get gmail to work with exchange?
I just installed this and set up my work exchange account as it had been with the stock email program. All I get is a "connection error" message. I know the settings are correct. Is there something I need to do to enable exchange that is not readily obvious in the settings menu, or is this just a bug that needs to be fixed?
Thanks
I keep getting fc,s with it. Ill wait till it is more stable but hatsoff to dj steve

Facebook pic on your contact list

Hello guys,
I was wondering if you can help me out. I got my Dell Streak for about a month now and I came from using an HTC EVO. There are couple features in the EVO (HTC Sense) that I wish it came with the streak.
1) T9 dialer, I love this feature on HTC but I found an alternative for our phone called the thaidial plus. So I am very happy about that.
2) Pictures from facebook is linked to your contacts. I tried synchmypix app but its not working the way I want to.
My phone is currently running the stock Dell 2.2 and I have set-up facebook to connect with my contact.
Am I missing something??
Thanks guys in advance.
Nim
SyncMyPix works for me...
I use Asurion Addressbook. They offer a Facebook Mixin that will do what you want.
syncmypix works..but sometimes you have to link them manually when you have double or multiple entry of the same contact
Upgrade to StreakDroid 1.7.0 Facebook sync now works.
really? my 1.7 cant sync with facebook, everytime there is an error????
1) search for dialer one on the market and use that for t9 dialer.
2) facebook sync is a known issue and is busted in the dell roms but it is working in dj_steve's 1.7.0 If your not comfortable, or just don't want to flash another rom, then you have several third party options with syncmypix being the most popular.

Unable to Browse More than 500 App on android Mkt ?? is it a bug or what

Hello.
When I enter Android Market app, no matter what I chose I can scroll down only to 500 items in all sections. When I reach 500 items and wanna scroll down for more I get a message that an authentication is required and that I must log on to google account.
I can browse, download and install any application I see but can not go further than 500 position.
I have set my google account on my phone, I have turned all options in account synchronisation but nothing happens. even am on the latest Marker Version

I've also tried emptying the cache, but nothing has changed.
Also today I downloaded and updated the facebook application
Did any of you guys try to upload it through the website using the browser ? Try uploading on a browser ( go to desktop version of site ) , using 3G , then using WiFi then report back here.
I just tried it and I can load both through mobile and web site!

Well it's obvious then , the Facebook application has a bug... There's nothing you can do about it, rather than wait for an update that might fix it. It's not a big deal anyway, I guess.
You could go to the market and leave a review of the app and tell about your problem so other users can check it and get it to update fast.

I think swiftkey, myalbum and also most apps use the mobile website to login and share content and the mobile site has problems :S the login screen never appears on screen
Even if I try to upload a picture in m.facebook.com it fails :S
update: also try to use google public DNS and a lot of settings on router and the same.
Can not login from android browser or any app or widget which use browser based login form (facebook app can login and all but can NOT upload pics) tested on my 3 android devices :S
Social hub can log in but can not upload pics aswell.
All apps are stuck on loading login page.
Also try with older facebook app (1.7.2) and the same, this looks like an issue with facebook page or with my router i guess :S
You boys are lucky.
I can't upload photos either, but in the latest Facebook release I can't update my status, or checkin!
That's with stock rom, cyanogen, wicked, checkrom the lot.
Tried flashing numerous roms to get around it.
This is the first place I've seen or heard of where anyone else is having a similar problem (at first I figured it wasn't the app, and something I'd done on my phone).
Older releases of the facebook app work. Guess I'll just wait and see if a new release comes out to address the issues.
OK today my cousin comes to home and I try to upload a pic from his S2 and the same sht
I think is a problem with this fckin router :S
This only affect to my mobile devices, on PC works well :S
Update, today I try it with 3G and all works pretty good so is a something about my router :S
Damn this sht is brand new 2wire from telmex.
I think I will call the support.
Hello everyone, I have given some checks to try to understand where is the problem with uploading. I have 2 with Gs2, but not rooted, and they haven't this problem!
Inviato dal mio GT-I9100 usando Tapatalk
I also have this problem with ics. Downgraded to gb and it works fine.
The problem seems more widespread than just facebook. I cant upload to any app on 3g. Tried dropbox, google+, facebook, google drive and even email attachments. just gets stuck starting to upload then fails.
Would really appreciate some help this is really annoying me!

Hey, I just figured out something about the go chat login interface. the problem you guys are having can be resolved easily.
At the login screen, untiick remember Login at first app usage..... Then login, but you can later tick it when next you're using the app. I think it's a bug from the app itself..................
If I helped, hit my thanks button.
