Re: Facebook Places on TP2?
Iris didn't work for me.
The only thing that worked was using the Foursquare application as a daisy-chain. Basically, you have to sign up for the Foursquare app WinMoSquare, then make sure you are signed out of everything else (Facebook or whatever even on your phone) then, using the settings page on the Desktop interface of Foursquare, you link the two accounts. After that, you make sure it is okay for Foursquare to send your "check-ins" or whatever you want. The fine print DOES say that Facebook only lets 10 messages to FB from a third party app like Foursquare per day. So, I only opted for the "check-ins"
Incidentally, I tried just linking without signing out and all that nonsense, and it didn't work. It might also be that it took a little while for the two accounts to link (due to propagating across networks or whatever).
I thought that maybe Iris would work if we soft reset first, just in case the GPS (which I have been told only works with the first app that accesses the information) had to be reset. But no dice. It just kept saying "Your location not found" or some such.
I tried using all the different ways to access FB through my phone, and nothing else worked, but this Foursquare/WinMoSquare (downloaded and installed through Windows Marketplace FOR FREE) to Facebook fix.
Hope this helps...
