So on both the regular and paid version, when I open Friendcaster, it brings me to the internet mobile version and tells me to log in...
Any ideas? Facebook also says when I log in from it, it says I am logging in from Washington when I am in California... Help?!
You have to sign in and allow friendcaster to post on your wall and all that stuff. Once you log in it will bring up the Friendcaster application. Idk about the location thing though, sorry.

All that happens after I log in is that it brings me to the mobile site. Nothing telling me to except connections from FriendCaster...

I see it (I'm using new market).
I'm confused as to why its not integrated into the main app. :/
Silly Facebook, developers... Just fix the notifications/instant updates.
I gotta remind myself to get to a damn blackberry.
So I can only get it from the new market? BRB, installing new market...

Nevermind. I found it on market.android.com and just pushed the installation to my phone that way. Not sure how this is any good at all, though.
I have it difference idk they released for the iPhone as well and you can sent pics so I'm guessing is like a blackberry messenger lol

WHY DO WE LIKE IT? It's weird to think that this can be a standalone app apart from the clusterzuck that Facebook can be but, well, it really can. It's as good as GroupMe or Kik or WhatsApp in the sense that you're chatting with friends without racking up SMS charges but it's better than those services because most people have Facebook accounts and don't need to sign up for a new service. It's easy to add buddies to chat (through their Facebook account or phone number), almost scary easy to attach your location to each message and less complicated than GroupMe to start a group chat.
Even if you hate Facebook, you don't hate your friends right? The Facebook-ness of the app is invisible enough that even the most anti-Facebook guy will have to admit this is actually decent. Seriously, strip the Facebook away and what you get is a messaging app that your friends have already signed up for. Why not try?

There's built in chat in the Facebook app, been that way for a while now guys...granted their notifications aren't working right for most people but the chat works just fine.
side note: are they gonna fix multi-quote on these boards soon? some problem with ad-block?
Could one of you share the apk, it's telling me a dumb error like my phone is not compatible and does the same for the official facebook app ....
[edit]Found it here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1210604
I tried this but the notifications arnt working. I've enabled all alerts, light sound vibrate but when I receive a message there's nothing. I have to go to the app to know i got one
Just got this phone today and was wondering if there is some special way of getting the widget to work? I have added my accounts but it just sits there and tells me to add an account.

It worked for me, but I felt it wasn't necessary. The UI was too basic to really use compared to the full version of the same apps.
Thanks for the input but do you have a suggestion for me?
Sent from my MB855 using xda premium
I had to return here for suggestions (so I get notifications), I get Linked and Facebook. When I go to add an account, I see them (checked because I have them) and I see Twitter (Not checked because I don't use it).
I want to add Google+ and Yahoo. Even when I am up and chatting on both of them, Social will not show them to add. I am clueless!

This is EXACTLY why I use this Widget. I work in IT and have done so for MANY years. I had Yahoo IM @ 12 years ago, @ 4 years ago I started with FB, This June, I got Google+. The last 3 years I have traveled the world with job, some friends are on Facebook, some on +, some still on Yahoo.
I have 760+ contacts, everyone keeps asking "Whats up, what have you been up to?" I cannot possibility answer them all, except with Social Networking, weather they want to read it or not. One post, everyone is happy.
Now, Like you stated, If I want a more personalized experience, I go to the app it's self.
Thanks everyone but the problem I'm having is I don't get anything on the widget and all it says is add an account.

I don't know what happen. Some photos I can view, but for 99% of them, I get "Cannot retrive the photo at this time. Please try again later?" I can open them fine on home computer so I do not think its an access issue?
Any thoughts or clue?

My Wife (LG Optimus) and Me (Photon) both have this issue, gotta be facebook at this point. They have had ****ty Android support from the start.
But-----------------> Google Plus FTW.
I reinstalled with no success. I thought it was me, then I reached out to some friends and this seems to be a common issue, no matter what phone you have. It just took me as odd one day it worked, next it did not and i did not download anything..........Oh well.
It's the app, not the phone

And I know why!!! Just looking, I had Version 1.8.1. After I deleted and went to reinstall, the version on the market is "Depends on Device!" So instead of investing some $$$$ in the masses, they are doing one off's as they get to it. Meaning they likely fix a bug for one device and break another!

I'm getting a notification that says "Permission requested for account ***@gmail.com" about once a day since I changed my gmail password a week or so ago. When I tap on it, it just clears and doesn't open up anything... I can't figure out which app is requesting it since all the accounts in settings are properly signed in. Any ideas of how to track this down?

Yes, it's signed in and I'm just using it for voice mail... But I noticed I've been getting my voice mails through the stock Sprint app lately. That's probably the same issue. I'll see what I can do. Thanks
Sent from my EVO using xda app-developers app
Yep it was definitely google voice. I signed out and signed back in, my voice mails are now being handled properly and I haven't seen the notification again. It would've been helpful if the notification was labeled more clearly or actually did something though...

Ok turns out it's something else besides google voice.. I still am getting the permission requested notifications. Any ideas?

Google Wallet. It's doing it to me. It happens every time I try to sign into wallet.
I did the recent OTA, then did a factory reset. Now I can't get Google Wallet to work.
I just got a request to enter my account information for my gmail account on my galaxy note 5. Upon doing that, I was directed to grant or allow the app "EMAIL" to view and manage my email and to know who I am. I clicked on the name of the app called Email and it displayed the developer information as email: [email protected] Clicking Allow will redirect you to a native application.
How is this NORMAL for a SAMSUNG Native Application developer email address go to a gmail account WTF?
I don't post often because I usually do some searching and find my answer. Not the case this time.
When I had an iPhone I was annoyed that it was not possible to choose defaults to override certain functions. For instance, you can't change the default browser. That's just one example, but there are many more.
After switching to android I thought I'd be all set. And for the most part I am. However, I still have not figured out how to modify one behavior that's bothering me: control of what happens when hyperlinks are clicked. The particular example I am thinking of right now is eBay.
I have the eBay app installed. So, whenever I click an eBay link - whether it's in a browser, an email, or another app - I want it to open the eBay app. I don't ever want it to open the eBay web page in the browser. Same goes for all the other apps I have installed. Another example - using the xda app. If I have the xda app installed and I get an email that includes a link to a thread here on xda, I want to view it in the xda app, not in a browser. Ever.
How do I make sure this behavior always works the way it should? It appears that some apps will ask what behavior you want to use as default. But that doesn't seem to work 100%. Our the setting isn't sticking. I don't know.
its not androids fault, its the app/web developers... tumblr makes great use of defaults but no other app seems to...

Is it a limitation caused by the "from" app or the "to" app?
For instance, I just got an email that there was a reply to this thread. When I click on the link in the Gmail app, there is no option to use the xda forum app to open the link. Is that a fault of the Gmail app, or the xda app?
I'd say the "to" app. I use tapatalk and any xda link gives me the option to open the forum in the app
Sent from my SCH-I545 using Xparent BlueTapatalk 2
I say its both both sides can be programmed to do it. the app can intercept links and webpages can add app specific buttons
tumblr has app specific buttons (open in app) and YouTube intercepts most links (thus when you click a YouTube link the app opens)
