Is it at all possible to recieve pokes on the app? or any app?
Im in a 3 year long poke war with 4 people and I NEED to have the ability to poke on my phone.
My BB used to be able to poke, but I cant figure out how to do it on the droid.
Any 3rd party apps that will work or what?
To my knowledge you cannot do that with the facebook app. You should be able to open the full facebook site via your internet browser and do it that way though.
From the Facebook app. Friends page>info tab>press menu>view profile>poke is on the top right.
Note: You must be logged into Facebook from the browser along with the Facebook app for this to work.

Hmph! I didn't know that being logged on through the browser brought any additional functionality to the app! Thanks.

Thanks.
Really all it does is open up Facebook mobile in the browser. It just so happens that the poke is one of the first thing that shows when the browser opens. Guess some things just work.

Hey all,
I don't know if any of you have encountered this problem yet but I decided to download the Facebook for Windows Mobile App from the Marketplace and I logged in and everything worked fine untill I opened the app up later on to find it will not update, I tried on WIFI and 3G etc Nothing happens it starts to refresh (eg the rotating loading icon appeared) and then stops and it doesn't actually refresh.
Is there a way to go back to the original app? or is it all around better to use the Opera web version?
Thanks very much for your time!

I'm running Dutty CDLC v15 and it's only started happening since yesterday. Maybe something wrong with Facebook? It works if you log out and log back in again though.
I uninstalled and reinstalled to see if it would work and it did, didn't think to try logging out to be honest ha-ha I think it may have something to do with the program. I will try and see what either Facebook or Microsoft says and hope they make a new update that actually works.
Thanks for the reply =]
Facebook itself is having problems. Been reading all over Twitter, people saying Facebook is down. Don't know how the site is,but the app definitely isn't working for me.
I posted about this over in general, was told the same thing, logging in and out seems to work but you have to log in and out every time you want to update.....
its a facebook side error though that's the bottom line......

HMM .. I found a different facebook APP called XDA FACEBOOK .. it doesnt do all the things the regular facebook app does and doesnt show photos yet but it DOES refresh so I wonder whats going on...
hmmm that weird.... maybe the fb app has gone the same way as the myspace app...... right down the plughole......
Same thing's happened to me. Anyone got a reason as to why? Or is it just related to the facebook crash?
I did a hard reset and installed FB first...Refresh works...after SPB backup (Restore)...didn´t Refresh...i guess it´s no FB and no Marketplace problem...
Here´s the solution...
Delete the "Facebook" and "FacebookInfo" files in the main dir of your mobile...start Facebook, login again...and it works...

only seems to work once.
then it's back to the 'no refresh' issue
Experiencing the same issue here, looking forward to a solution for this one.
Yeah I have not been able to get facebook to connect on my HD2 for a week now. I can still upload photos to facebook via the uploader, just cant update the app info... anyone know and app that works lol
....same here no updates possible since few days :-(
can anyone confirm if this advice is of any help?...
have you ever changed your facebook email address? check that the contact address in account settings matches your new email. i found that though i could login with my new email the old email address was still showing as contact address. i also reinstalled the facebook app so could also have been that which started it working again for me.
In my case I'm having problems logging in.
Regardless if I tick the "remember settings" square it keeps asking me to re-login with all of my credentials even after I hadn't shut off the phone... which didn't happen when I had the old Facebook Mobile version...

Hi, I'm the developer of the XDAFacebook app, and I can say that yes FB was down last week. The reason my app still worked was because the error that was breaking everyone had an easy work-around and I was able to release an update that worked.
I would say if you are not happy with the Microsoft app, please check mine out. It is still in early beta stages but will quickly become a full mobile client. Any feedback would be wonderful!
here is the link to the dev thread:

+1 same problem
I don't think we'll EVER see a fix. This app was developed by MS & not facebook, like on Android or Apple. So I think it's safe to say MS has abandoned it in favor of their WP7 facebook app.
I've been using joe coolish's xda facebook app. It works great, just doesn't have all the bells & whistles yet, but will.
Other than that I do use tweetdeck & the facebook app when I switch over to android, both of those are good, especially tweetdeck, you can update twitter, facebook, foursqaure & more all at once.
I just updated my Sprint Evo 3d to ICS last night and before I learned that you can't see Facebook contact images in 3rd party apps without some tinkering I deleted my gmail and Facebook accounts from the phone thinking that would help. When I put my accounts back Facebook only automatically linked half of my contacts. I selected the option to sync with existing contacts. Is there any way to get it to automatically link the rest? I don't want to manually link 100+ contacts. Is there a way to manually trigger the linking? Also, I don't know if it matters, but before the ICS update I had Facebook and Facebook for sense on the phone. Now it is only Facebook.
The other 100 might now have a phone number linked to fb or the names are,diffrent or you don't have an email for them or some kind,of linking info I'm your phone but the fb app should allow you to resync the people in settings I think

All the names are identical so that isn't a problem and they linked perfectly fine when I first got the phone with gingerbread. When I first set up the phone periodically the phone would alert me to possible contact links every so often until they were all linked. It isn't doing that now.

Sitlet I think that is for a different issue. My problem isn't that 3rd party apps can't get the pictures (well that WAS my problem originally), it is that the link is not being established in the first place. I can fix the picture issue but I need the phone to prompt me about potential links between the contacts so I don't have to do it manually. The fix in that thread won't LINK my contacts right? It will just allow 3rd party apps to get the contact photos.
In case anyone cares, it took about 48 hours and last night I received the prompt suggesting I link contacts. I have no idea why it would take so long to trigger but all is well in the world now. Thanks to those who tried to help.

I bet it's facebook's problem. They've been having a lot of issues with the mobile app. Mine, along with many other people, has been logging out and having problems with sync lately.

Yeah for a few days it forced me to login every time. It wasn't just the mobile app though it was doing it to me on the regular web version as well.
Now that I have this all figured out it leads me to my next question. I used syncmypix to grab the high quality images from FB instead of the **** low rez ones that it imports itself and it synced it to my gmail account. However, the phone is set to default to the FB picture not the Google version. I can go into each contact and tell it to use the gmail photo but once again, I would rather not have to do that. Anyone know of a batch way of doing this?
Hey, here is my problem:
Facebook and Messenger are always turned on in the background and whenever I connect to the internet I appear online on FB.
Sometimes I want to use the internet without appearing on facebook and receiving messages. I know that I can use the log out option in both FB and Messenger but than I need to re-enter password and re-login with all those questions about syncing my device with FB. I am looking for a solution. Something like 1 button widget that disables/enables facebook in no time. I tried using some firewalls but they took long to work and when I wanted to turn back FB on I had to restart my device.
Any ideas?

yes of course you can chat even without messenger. chat heads wont pop up but once you open the facebook app, you will be receiving notifications in the notification bar.
after months of annoying targeted ads I finally got tired of facebook and uninstalled it from my phone
installed separate browser specific for facebook on every PC so it cant share date with anything
I also installed firefox on my phone to use for facebook alone. it worked great until I uninstalled messenger
that's when I really saw how desperate facebook wants my info. im assuming all the goodies were loaded into messenger since it needed pretty much every permission available
and facebook is now like a tweaker trying to get access back to my phone by forcing me to use messenger.
it blocked access to my messages from mobile page and from desktop page as well
always redirecting me to app store
even when I disable app store it simply left blank screen when I click on messages.
this is really disturbing to me how much it wants to spy on me.
so now im trying to figure out if theres a way to access my messages without having facebook app and messenger app
I tried using tinfoil facebook but its also blocked from accessing my messages.
how can I get my messages to work again?

This isn't Facebook spying on you or targeting you specifically. It's been the case for a while now that you can't access your messages from the mobile Facebook website without having Messenger.
It does the exact same thing to me if I try, it opens Messenger. It's for everyone. The change was made some time ago now.
Put Facebook/Messenger Lite on your phone and use that. Or any of the Facebook website wrapper apps like Swipe for Facebook or Metal.
Hello,
I wanted to know which email App you use. Because the original one I don't like it and Gmail on quick app is very awful :/
So if you can answer to this it would be great!
I use Gmail. Yeah Gookill is just evil.
Use a cloud based only app like Gmail.
That eliminates malware completely unless you chose to download it.
Gmail is excellent with spam and I have never gotten malware through it except if not mindful of downloaded files.
My Yahoo email got locally wifi hacked once, I don't trust it's encryption now.
Outlook is malware central
Yahoo mail, with Gmail and Yahoo account.
I have no notifications, but I check it anyway, several times a day.
Aquamail, the best.
Nine -> Just get it from Petal Search. If you paid for it on playstore you can add your subscription on the Huawei without issue, you just need to paste the order or something in the app.
Blue Mail

Thanks to MicroG settings, now I have notifications too.
Hi, I've been using Spark, I tried also BlueMail but didn't like it at all, what made me convince about Spark is that it syncs also your gmail folders, so everything keeps as if you were using gmail app, also your signatures, contacts an many more features that makes me forget about gmail native app.
It's available in app gallery, good luck!
Another cool app imo -> "Re:Work". https://rework.so/
I was using "Nine" previously so this is their new app and even had promotion for "Nine" users.
It's not available in the app gallery but it can be downloaded.
