Facebook. What solution are you dealing with? - Asus Eee Pad Transformer Prime

I think we can all agree, for the most part, that using facebook on an Android tablet leaves a lot to be desired. I started off with FriendMe because it didn't pester me with ads, but then switched to FaceDroid after FriendMe got too buggy. I found FaceDroid's UI to be far too busy and it started getting a little buggy as well, so I switched to FriendCaster, which does as many things wrong as it does right. Further, I haven't found a browser that handles Facebook's desktop website well enough for me to use it full time.
So I'm curious to find other peoples' opinions. What is everyone using to access facebook?

I don't even bother with Facebook on my Prime anymore. It's irritating. I just fall back to my laptop or Nexus.
Hopefully they develop an HD Facebook app for tablets soon.

Friendcaster
I'm using FriendCaster. I think it's the best... It really fast.
Facebook official App for android is really bad...

I tried Friendcaster but it's widget never updates automatically.

plua one. And the photo functions are great.

I just use touch.facebook.com. It's simple, albiet a bit plain, but it works. Except for when the site is down which happens weirdly often...

Don't do Facebook, thats how.

I use the facebook app, but very, very begrudgingly. It's a horrible app. Awful layout, doesn't take advantage of real estate, and there are a multitude of basic functions it can't perform.
I don't have a solution, I just came in to lament the fact that one of my most-visited websites has such a terrible native option =P

+1 I have to agree

Stock browser for full desktop site works wonders for me.
For messaging however, I use the messaging app.

I use "tinfoil for Facebook". It doesn't have those invasive permissions that the other applications have. It just loads the website in a sandbox environment. No tracking cookies, reading history, looking at my contacts or getting my GPS location.

I just use m.facebook.com in Dolphin. If you want a decent rendering of the Desktop facebook.com then use Chrome.

Just go to Facebook on your browser.
I don't get why there are all these apps for websites. You can replace all of them with a decent browser.

Scroll through theverge.com and then scroll through it via Google Currents. It's a matter of usability, not capability. Anywho, I get some weird artifacting and hotlinking when I use the desktop facebook through the browser. I'm just curious as to what everyone else uses.

I have tried a lot of options, so far the best option for me is the stock browser, Shame on you facebook

I want to like FriendCaster but when I compare newsfeed with the Facebook app, it is always missing posts

I use Google+ and Blogger. When I post something on Blogger, it automatically gets syndicated to RSS, Twitter, and Facebook by way of external services, and I hope someday to Google+ without having to share posts out of the browser. Contacts have been beaten with a club enough that they know better than to Facebook me in reply.
When I used to use Facebook regularly I took to using the mobile site in Opera Mobile, much better than the app was back then.

Try out the official Facebook app for iPad and then try comparing it to the browser.. you will quickly understand. The webpage is not optimized for touch.. and chat is not working at all on the prime's browser. You have to use the messenger app.

SugarSync 5GB Cloud Storage (dropbox killer)

SugarSync is the best syncronization solution i've tested so far
some of the features that attracted me mostly
- 5GB of free space (+ 500MB)
- sync the files between all the computers and devices
- music streaming
- photo sharing
- etc. (Also, as long as you keep getting referrals, you keep getting 500mb+)!
If you register through my referral link you'll get an additional 500MB (I also get)
https://www.sugarsync.com/referral?rf=ehxb6c0ogsep7
The switch is worth it. It is much more user friendly and has extra features compared to dropbox.

I understand, but if you emailed them, they should be quick in your response, i just emailed them about Symbian and they responded in less than 2 hours. Got to give them props to that. I'm sure however, that they are working on Linux, several other people have emailed them about this situation in the past.
I joined for your sake but will prbably wait until they fix the issues with Android. From what I have read it appears it is a battery hog and files don't sync 100% of the time. But hey, I got you another 500mb....
also signed up. Thanks!
Might sign up ;(

I have used Sugar Sync for awhile now and find it rather nice. I have not noticed any battery or sync issues on my end. Also, with the Cloud Save extension for Google Chrome it's really easy to get files on your phone if Chrome to Phone is giving you problems. I am somewhat surprised that Google has not jumped on the cloud storage train yet (other than Music Beta).
I like it! I already got another 750mb free by doing their little "getting started" tasks.

Seems nice, I really like being able to sync/download a single folder at once, unlike Dropbox, which is 1 file at a time. The "getting started" stuff never worked for me kept telling me to do it again so I just left it alone

[FIX] Stock Browser Speed Increase w/videos [12/27/11]

Basically after some research and trial and error it seems that when the ASUS engineers were finalizing the HC build for our Primes they left some settings on which conflict with each other. I have discovered the proper settings needed to achive fluidity and speed in the stock browser which does not impact FLASH or youtube or any site that uses embedded content for that matter. Basically all you have to do is open the stock browser and in the address bar type about:debug and then tap go. Nothing will appear however click on menu then settings and you will see a debug section added to the list. Make sure that your settings mirror the image below. I have tested this with the correct settings on and off and there is a huge difference. Videos coming soon. Again if you encounter any issues let me know.

Stock Browsing
The instructions below are deprecated DO NOT FOLLOW
Hello everyone after reading all the mixed reviews here on XDA and being a personal owner in the community I wanted to shed some light on the browser lag issue. Initially when I got the prime I noticed the UI even with a Live wallpaper did not lag however the browser lagged a bit. I promptly remembered that stock browser has debug options. So I enabled debug and turned off "Enable OpenGL rendering " which is GPU hardware rendering of the web and I immediately noticed an increased response from the stock browser only down side is sunspider results dropped. However real world rendering and scrolling improved. Screenshots comming soon, please let me know what ur feedback is. Can't wait til ICS.

Opera is the best so far. Much better then stock or delphin.
stock browser sucks no matter device or OS. Opera mobile is the best on Prime right now.
Opera mobile is smooth, but accessing the bookmarks is so annoying. In Dolphin the bookmark access is so easy.
IMO this is why Apple still reigns. Try getting a housewife or someone not so technical, to understand they need a new browser, let alone how to do it.
Dont get me wrong, I dont have an Apple bone in my body. But cant deny there stuff is rock solid for the most part.
I've seen quite a bit of complaints about the stock browser. The ICS browser is greatly improved. I've used it on the Galaxy Nexus and it's much better than previous Android browsers. Let's just hope that Asus does actually get ICS out the door in January.
Ill try it out. I also enabled webGL. Not sure why that is not enabled, but I doubt many sites use it.

I have an Ipad also. safari is no better or faster. it sux also. I never use it. on Ipad I either use Icab or Atomic browser. they don't have opera mobile for it. only opera mini.
Seriously, folks, the one area where ICS will make marked and virtually guaranteed performance improvements is the stock browser. If the Galaxy Nexus browser performs decently with its meh processor and 1280X720 resolution, then we should see excellent performance on the Prime with Tegra 3.
I'm willing to be a little bit patient...

I dont agree with that. In my personal experience with my wifes iPad 1, and now her iPad 2 ... Safari is lightning fast in most cases.
In fact she brags about how much faster it is than her netbook.

I dont agree 100%. My Acer a100 7inch stock browser running HC 3.2 is smoother. Same with Lenovo ideapad k1(which I returned tovget the prime). But there's no need to use other browser. Here's a video of my a100

How to force mobile websites?

I'm using Dolphin Browser HD and with the User Agent set to "Android", many websites still default to using the desktop browser.
One of these is ING Direct (banking website), of which the desktop website is frustrating to use on a tablet.
Is there any way to force it to mobile view? There seems to be no mobile URL, which is why I'm asking. This also happens with several other websites, but ING Direct is the main one that frustrates me.
The ironic part is that switching the user agent to iPhone seems to force mobile websites fine. But then other websites break, like YouTube links go to the iPhone mobile website, instead of launching the Android app etc...
Why does the User Agent Android not work properly? Is there a way to force it to act like an Android phone?
There is an option under setting in HTC default browser to set to Mobile View. Check that and you are good to go.

How will a setting in HTC's default browser transfer over to Dolphin?
(And the reason I know it is an Evo View-specific issue rather than a Dolphin browser issue, is because these issues don't occur on my phone when using the same Dolphin app.)

Unfortunately it does not work.
After marking Mobile View in the "Internet" app, Dolphin still brings up desktop web sites, even though Dolphin is set to "Android" user agent.
How is no one else having issues with this?
Tried it on my flyer... Android user agent didn't load it, but iPhone did. It seems that dolphin HD has a slightly different user agent than Mini, which does redirect when using android as the user agent.
HD: 4.0 Safari
Mini: 4.0 Mobile Safari
Adding Mobile to the default user agent string for Android causes ING to redirect.
The problem in this case is on ING's side. Their server is looking for the word mobile in the user agent to force the redirect.
Try this as a custom user agent and see if it works with your other problem sites:
Code:
Mozilla/5.0 (Linux; U; Android 3.2.1; en-us; HTC Flyer P510e Build/HTK75C) AppleWebKit/534.13 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/4.0 Mobile Safari/534.13
On edit: using a custom user agent with just the word mobile also redirected to the ING mobile site on HD

Wow thanks for following up with them. I never would have thought about contacting them directly about this.
You actually inspired me to email them about one of my pet peeves / feature requests: the option to keep tabs up all the time, even when scrolling down the page! For a tablet, this would be amazing, for fast tab switching, rather than having to hit menu to bring up all the tabs every time.
Good to see that Dolphin support is so responsive!

I'm not sure what you mean by sending notes through bluetooth. Would you elaborate?
Adding more colour schemes is unlikely. The app currently includes two versions of the interface, one for high-resolution displays and one for the low. With more variants of each, it could quickly become unmaintainable. I can't change the background colour programmatically either, because it is baked into the graphics. They are all dithered for 16-bit colour, and dithering is incompatible with transparency.

It's simply you can send the notes you have to another device, say to another phone or pc, using bluetooth.

The thing I wonder about is what to do with the note on the receiving end. Official Evernote clients cannot properly transfer notes outside of synchronization. Exporting to HTML is possible, but would raise the question of what to do with file attachments.
Of course, if you can connect to internet through Bluetooth, then you can simply sync.

Perfect timing: I just started trying out Evernote this week and wasn't really keen on Evernote's own application because it's useless offline. And here comes your app and looks great.
I got one problem, though: It refuses to connect via wifi. No problem at all via 3G, but on WiFi it steadily shows "connecting".
Oh, and being able to create new tags would be a good addition.

Thanks for complimenting the app. I have not used WiFi in a while, but will try to reproduce your problem.
Started a new work item for tag creation: http://peoplesnote.codeplex.com/workitem/1005.
Voting on feature requests gets them implemented sooner.
Since restarting my phone a few times, the app doesn't hang up while trying to connect via WiFi anymore - it just takes way longer than via 3G for some reason, but it's usable.
Edit: Forget about the described problem. I'm sure it was a generally lagging WiFi connectivity that day. It works like a charm in other WiFi networks and now at the same one, too.
I apologize for taking so long to release a new version — just did not have much time to spare. Version 0.38 implements one of the most-requested features, letting you choose "All Notebooks" to browse, search, and sync all your notebooks together.

Great App!
Great App! Working on my old Axim X51V!
I see on your website that you have Notes popping up with a timed alarm reminder as low priority. Let me put in a vote for higher priority.
I would use it as a timed "sticky note" to myself to do something.
Keep up the good work!
Just released version 0.39, making it possible to delete notes from the main note list screen via a tap-and-hold menu.
http://peoplesnote.codeplex.com/releases/view/84127
Version 0.40 adds an option to compact the database from the profile screen. Compacting a database can make it smaller and faster by removing empty spaces left over by editing, moving, and deleting notes.

It must be just me; since nobody else has mentionned it; but I cannot log in to evernote at all on my HD2.

It sounds like the WiFi connection is slow and times out. With 3G, try to establish a data connection first, such as by opening a web browser. I just created a work item for this: workitem:1055.

This program is making all the right steps in all the right directions, it has great prospects.
There are some features that Evernote has that I hope would arrive in this software in the not-too-distant future. I make more handwritten notes that any other form of note taking, and what I find with 'PeoplesNote' is that the 'Ink Note' feature is just a one page scribble pad without any option to scroll or add a page. It would be fantastic if the Ink Note feature of PeoplesNote could automatically scroll as the old Windows Note does as you approach the bottom of the page. Evernote's Ink Note recognises that you are reaching the bottom of the page and facilitates extra space to scroll into. Additionally, it would be very helpful to have an erase feature with Ink Note.
Please don't take this as criticism, I can see this app being extremely useful for as long as Evernote allow you to develop it.

it won't be a web wrapper but it will however use IE's engine (trident?)

Why do you think so, any proof link? Opera has own engine; C++ is available for programming WP8 so it may be a WP8 port...
Yeah, there's no reason somebody couldn't implement a different rendering engine in a WP8 app. This isn't iOS, where things like JS interpreters are forbidden.
With that said, We Shall See. Thanks for the link!
EDIT: Their beta filled up in a few hours, LOL.

i'll look up a source asap, afaik web browsers aren't allowed to have other other engines than IE's.
which is also why the chromium developers didn't make a WP port (which they wanted to do)
edit: I swear I have read that you couldn't make browser that didn't use the trident engine, but it seems like @GoodDayToDie was right

Web browser is just a regular application which makes HTTP/HTTPS requests and renders HTML responses on the screen, nothing more. There are no any prohibitions at all for this job.
I remember Chrome/Firefox devs being annoyed that you can't change the default browser (the OS doesn't allow apps to specify themselves as handling the HTTP/HTTPS URIs, or to otherwise change the default away from IE). There are also certain things that might make such a port difficult/expensive in general, such as the need to re-write the JS JIT emitter to produce Win32/THUMB-2. The rendering engine itself isn't that hard to port, though.
Has anyone received a download link from opera yet?
Last night i was contacted them, they replied.
"Thank you for joining the Opera Mini beta testers group. As soon as the build is ready, we'll email you a link to the build "

I have a lumia 920 and it crashes upon start up. a little frustrating lol
Working fine on 512 RAM Nokia Lumia 520.
It's first beta build, we should have to report bugs to them.

Lumia 920 too...works but can crash during some site loading.
Edit: After today's update it now crashes on every page load.
Todays update (.903) now loads and functions well on my 920. Pretty fluid, actually. Hopefully more features are added like swipe gestures etc.
The poor standards support is disappointing, try for example to load www.telerik.com .
The sunspider JavaScript test isn't even starting, well, they got a lot of work on this if they want this to be a viable alternative to IE.

Knowing Opera Team dedication for their browser (desktop, tablets and phones), they can pull this out and make it awesome browser. Great thing about them is that they are listening their users and heavily counting on users feedback.
Altho, since first version, Opera Mini on my phone (Samsung ATIV S i8750, WP8 GDR3), was working fine, no crashing, no whatsoever, just that youtube bug that can't play videos. But they will do that, look how many updates they have in few days of releasing a beta. That means, they are working hard. kudos for them.
Let's face it, we all LOVED the Opera Mini and Opera Mobile on our Windows Mobile devices, so by that we all want Opera Mini to succeed on WP platforms, right?
