E71 Latest OVI Facebook app no good!!!

Having downloaded the latest facebook app from the Ovi store specifically for the E71/E72 phones I honestly thought
it would have been thouroughly tested with all the bugs ironed out before release.....................how wrong was I ????
After the initial instal the program seems to work fine once logged in..................great :-)
However once I log out then try to log in again all I get is the screen showing "Loading" after its connected.
Tried this twice now with uninstall/ re-install same problem :-(
Poor show if you ask me & I wish they wouldn't offer apps that dont work as they should or have not been properly Beta tested as even "free" apps cost some people money :-(

lucky you, that you can even try it..
i download it through ovi, install.... and i cannot find the program anywhere on the phone... the rest of the stuff installs fine, but facebook is nowhere to be seen....

  • N97 - Reinstall Facebook App without wiping phone ...

    There are more and more bad reviews everyday coming from N97 users regarding the OVI facebook app (besides the fact that it is really outdated).  I have read about users wiping there phone to reinstall it, but there is an easier way.
    When I tried to go into OVI to download the facebook app the download button was a dark gray.  It's isn't OVI....this time......  It is actually because it's still on your phone.  I don't know if this will help everyone, but I got my widget back. 
    Someone please post this in the review section of the Facebook app on the OVI store.  I can't because I wasted my one and only review on bad mouthing OVI.  I know a lot of people are looking for this fix and had the same problem as I did. 
    1. Go to Settings
    2. Application Manager
    3. Installed Apps
    4. Scroll down to 'Facebook Installer' and hit 'Options' and then 'Uninstall'
    5. Once it's cleared from the phone you can go back to the OVI store and finally be able download and install once again.
    Facebook app hasn't changed at all, but it's back for anyone that has complained about it not being there.  There are still no wall posts for this app and no chat which a lot of people are looking for.  Hopefully a software update for the app is being worked on and being released soon.

    I am a huge Nokia fan - and have even defended the N97 when it comes to iPhone users bashing it... but you would not believe on how disappointed I am Nokia have done this.
    I too did a soft reset (after serious issues like contacts folder locking up and not allowing me to even access it and various other bugs) and now have lost Facebook, Accuweather etc.  The phone is being majorly sold on the facebook application - being dubbed 'The Facebook Phone' - and the truth is it obviously cannot be anymore further than that...
    After all... Facebook isn't even available in the Ovi Store for it... so how can it be a Facebook Phone?
    Wish someone from Nokia would explain PROPERLY what the hell is going on!?
    I cannot believe I'm about to say this (after owning several N-Series phones... 73, 93, 95, 95-2)... but maybe I should of got an iPhone?

  • Default E71 Facebook App

    Hey Everyone,
    I just installed the Facebook app for the E71 from the Ovi store......what a mistake!!!!  This app is terrible.
    Does anyone know where I can get the old default Facebook app that comes on the E71?  I know it is just an app that goes to m.facebook.com.  I currently have a bookmark on my home screen but I'd like to have a proper icon.
    Thanks

  • Iphone 4 with latest OS keeps crashing when I open facebook app can someone advise?

    My iphone 4 with latest OS keeps crashing when I open facebook app can someone advise? This is only happeining in the last few days I cannot use facebook on my iphone it crashes and slows down our network/wifi, is this a problem with facebook (latest version downloaded) or OS which is 6.1.3 - anyone any solutions? Thanks

    First thing to try is to reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider should one appear until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.
    If that doesn't work quit the Facebook app. Go to the Home screen and double click the Home button. That will reveal the row of recently used apps at the bottom of the screen. Tap and hold on the app in question until it jiggles and displays a minus sign. Tap the minus sign to actually quit the app. Then tap anywhere on the screen above that bottom row to return the screen to normal. Then delete the Facebook app and download it again.

  • Facebook app from OVI

    Please can someone advise
    I have a Nokia E5 and when I start the Facebook application it asks for username and password - and then immediately goes back to the Nokia home screen before any information can be entered (The login screen flashes on for about 1 second)
     I want to reinstall the facebook application, but when I go to the OVI site it states that the facebook application is not available for the E5 - only Facebook Chat. But I see most people use Facebook on the E5 and there is even a Youtube video of facebook running on the E5.
    How do I get Facebook app on the E5 ? (Currently I am going into the internet and using the Facebook webpage - but would like to use the app)
    (PS - I previously posted this request under the wrong section - my apologies)

    Do u know how others got theirs into their phone?I mean ur fellow E5 users?

    I just did the update to iOS 7.1 and now cannot use my Facebook app on my ipad. It won't open, it just crashes. I can access it via the internet and can still use the app on my iPhone (which also has the update) but not on my ipad. Anyone else have this problem or have any suggestions?

  • Problem scrolling with facebook app comments

    I just upgraded to the latest facebook app and i thank u for being able to like comments. However now I have a problem. When the comment is very long, I cannot scroll down and it goes to the next comment so i cannot see the bottom half of the comment outside the screen below. I tried to scroll but it keeps jumping to next comment so i cannot see. Can u pls help to rectify this bug or how do I solve it pls? Pls reply asap. Tks.

    Hi chawsi,
    Try adjusting your Trackpad sensitivity, reduce it to 50 or 60 and give a Battery pull Restart i;e. while device is Powered On remove the Battery wait for a min. then reinsert it back wait till the device Reboots. Perform this two Tricks then I don't think you will have problem in this matter.
    Good Luck

  • N97 Facebook App Problem

    Hello, i just purchased a Nokia N97 and the Facebook Application on the front screen does not work. It keeps saying "incorrect signature".
    I can log into Facebook through the web, but would much prefer to use the phone app.
    Does anyone know how to fix this?

    You can get Facebook app from Ovi Store , would also suggest visiting Nokia Beta Labs and trying Nokia Social messaging Beta. Works well and gives you the option to use Twitter as well, it has a good widget, and more functionality than the original FB widget.
    Good Luck
    If I have helped at all, a click on the White Star is always appreciated :

  • Facebook app stuck at loading

    I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the Facebook app from OVI store (the S60) version for my N97.  After punching in the Email and Password, it is perpetually stuck at the "loading" screen.  Can't quit the application.  Nothing seems to happen.  Tried restarting the phone etc.  Still not working.
    Anyone has similar experience? 
    Visit http://www.WilfridWong.com - where all good things are meant to be shared!

    I have a Dave Alpha B device.
    So the Facebook account does show up under the Blackberry Hub and the Facebook items propagate through the devices calendar.
    The problem is that I can't seem to get the Facebook App to launch on the device as it is asking me to "add an account".
    When I click on the "add an account" button it takes me to my accounts loaded on the device. I then select the Facebook account and I re enter my password and it verifies. I hit the back button and then I am at the Facebook "add an account" screen again.
    thx

  • N97 Facebook App

    I am on the currently latest firmware available, I have all my applications on my F: drive to ensure I have memory available for the phone to use, but increasingly I am finding more and more faults and errors with the facebook application to the point where it has become unusable.
    I have repeatedly uninstalled and reinstalled, removed from home screen etc, nothing has worked. The application was working perfectly to begin with, now I get nothing but parse errors and cannot do anything on the application.
    Does anyone know of a work around (see troubleshooting already attempted) or an update to this app that will be released to deal with these issues, or are we wasting our time attempting to use something so full of bugs?

    Google it. There are various Facebook Apps for the N97/5800 out there. The Widget itself and the DCF file, including the one from the OVI Store somehow does not work. There was one post somewhere which offered the SIS version. Basically, it is an installer version that installs (rather re-installs) after you uninstall the current one... the Facebook Widget.
    This widget worked for me. All the others including the one direct from OVI did not work.  

  • "Incorrect Signature" for Facebook App

    Hi all
    Just bought a Nokia E71 and downloaded the Facebook application through OVI. However, having tried to run it (and after having found where the damn thing even installed to), I've hit a wall. When I put in my sign-in, it comes back "Incorrect Signature". I think it's got something to do with the connection protocol. Does anyone else have this application working on a Nokia? Is there a way I can tell this particular program to use a different connection? 'Chat' asks what connection type I want to make (MMS, Internet, WAP, etc.), but the Facebook App has no option for this that I can find.

    I think that's a great idea. Make sure you also post it on http://www.hpwebos.com/feedback as well to get more exposure to it!

  • Just got the iPad mini. Why can't I view my Facebook profile? (I'm using the Facebook app) I can open my News Feed but when I go to my page, it comes out with a notice "page doesn't exist, or you don't have permission to view this page" HELP!

    It's frustrating to not be able to view my own Facebook page using the iPad mini. I have the iPad 1 and the Facebook app works fine there, I can see my personal FB page with 1. Is this characteristic of the iPad mini only?

    Try this:
    Make sure IOS is updated to latest version
    Reboot device by pressing both the home button and sleep/wake (power) buttons at the same time for 10-15 seconds until the apple logo appears on the screen, then let go.
    If that doesn't work then reset the device by going to settings/general/reset/reset all settings
    (no media or data will be deleted from the device, this will only take a minute).
    If none of those work, delete the app and install it again.

  • Help with new facebook app idea

    I created a drawing facebook app that allows users to draw on Graffiti Walls. If anyone wants to see the app LIVE right now, it's at, [link removed by moderator]. I made this app using Flash, Actionscript 3 and MySQL for the database. PHP for the serverside stuff.
    Currently each user is allowed his or her own two favorite colors, a message of the day text and also a signature text. I would like to add the ability for a user to store a URL to a mp3 file.(I am not stupid and i'm not allowing users to host mp3 files). Just a link to an mp3 file. Then when you visit that persons wall, the mp3 file loads up.
    I guess what I'm looking for is a good mp3 file host to use? One that offers an upload API would be ideal. Anyone help me with this?

    The storage used in that display is only an estimate. What do you see, when you select your Macintosh HD in the Finder and look at the sizes in the "Finder > File > Get Info" panel for your harddisk? The free storage is shown in the General brick of the Info panel:
    The migration may be needing more free storage, if your iPhoto Library has a corruuption and needs repairing.
    Try the iPhoto Library First Aid Tools before you try to migrate the library again to Photos:
    Make a backup copy on an external drive.
    Then try the iPhoto Library First Aid Tools on your iPhoto Library  to repair the permissions and to repair the database.
    To repair hold down the  alt/option and the command key simultaneously while double clicking the iPhoto application in the Applications folder  to launch the iPhotos Library First aid tools. Hold down both keys firmly and long enough, until the First Aid panel will appear.
    The select "Repair database".  Repeat with "repair Permissions".
    If it still does not suffice, repeat with "Rebuild Library".
    Then try to migrate the library again to Photos by dragging it onto the Photos icon in the Dock.

  • Is this a possible bug on the Facebook app for iPhone?

    I tend to suffer from slight paranoia regarding security online and on my phone. I'll try to explain the worry I'm having as best I can.
    Basically, I had a personal video on my phone, (nothing horrible don't worry), but it's of a nature that would be embarrassing to be seen by other people.
    So this video was the latest thing I had recorded/taken with my phone. I went onto the Facebook app on my iPhone to post an older picture I had to my page.
    When I saw that this video was still on my phone, I panicked and worried that it could somehow get posted to my page without me actually posting it e.g. a bug whereby the last picture or video taken would go onto your Facebook without you actually selecting it or posting it. So I deleted it while still on the grid page where you choose your photos/videos and so it disappeared when I went back to the app.
    Can anyone with 100% honesty tell me one way or another if this is possible? If I haven't explained it enough let me know and I'll explain it further. Again, please be honest cos it's the best thing for me. Thanks.

    It may be in Facebook, but Facebook doesn't consider it a bug; it's the way Facebook works. If you gave the app permission to view your photos it gives Facebook access to ALL of your photos. To put your mind at ease go to your Facebook page on your computer and see if it's there.
    If you are concerned about privacy online you probably shouldn't have a Facebook page
