Facebook APP & Facebook IM v2.16 [IM] (IM updated 4/23/09)

FACEBOOK APP

New Facebook APP Released March 5th

XDA - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=489379

First credit to Da_G from the raphael forms for extracting and ripping this app from the new windows mobile 6.5 21169 rom, with out him non of this would be possible.

Also thanks to
dsi76 for making original cab
Ather for making the Updated Cab
ajbopp for testing on qvga
djtosh for testing on wqvga
fb401 for testing on a Windows Mobile Standard Phone

Ok this is the Facebook Application made by Microsoft and stripped from the newest wm6.5 rom (Build 21169). I did NOT make this, or do really anything at all beside bring this information to you. Thank the people above and Microsoft for this app.

It is known that his is ONLY V0.14 so while this app does offer a good facebook experience it is safe to assume that this is definitely a "Pre-Release" version of the software with many known bugs. The final release candidate will most likely fix most if not all of the current issues. It will probable offer more features and a much better over all experience. So better things are yet to come


*Overview*
This Is a new Facebook aplication for windows mobile! As stated above it was ripped rom the newest windows 6.5 Rom, but this WILL run on windows 6.1, 6.0 and even Windows Mobile Standard from preliminary testing. Tho our WM5 uses have stated that they have been unable to get this App to load. Currently it is at V0.14 so im guessing this is still an early beta program mayb even alpha version. But with that said it still looks and works great! Though it does have some issues. Currently this app has the following features.

5 Differnt Tabs,
Home - Where you can view your News Feed, Status Updates, and Updated Photos
Profile - Where you can view yours and others Wall, Info, & Photos
Friend - Graphical/Text list of all your friends & what they are doing
Inbox - Here you can view your Inbox, Outbox, Notifications, and Requests
Phonebook - This is a really cool feature where you can call any of your friends that have htere phone numbers linked to there FB Profile.

This App also as some other cool features, such as the ability to "Poke" friends as well as leave comments(a must) view picture albums, upload pictures/videos as well as the ability to update your own status. This app shows real promise considering it is only currently V.14, i personally cant wait for the updated versions that will hopefully come in updated roms being released every few days - a week.

Here is the original OEM packages to all the cooks out there
linky

Tested and works on both VGA,QVGA, WQVGA & WVGA, but appears to work on all resolutions.
Tested and also works on Window Mobile Standard Phones


Current Know Issues
1. Can not be installed to Storage Card*Fixed by new cab*
2. If not WWE Rom, install may be not be perfect
3. Login Info will NOT be saved even if "save info" is checked
4. Will not show friends ID if they are not one of your friends
5. First launch takes a while to cache all info(Not really a problem just fyi
6. Other small random odd & ins

Fixes/Workarounds
1. New cab by Ather
2. Also fixed by new cab by Ather
3. Work Around, if you close with the X button(or other apps) instead of the "log out" your login info will be saved Thanks siemi1!
4. Seems to be on purpose by the app..gotta deal with it.
5. Not a problem to fix
6. to be continued..

*WORK AROUND FOR NON WWE ROMS*
If you do NOT have a WWE Rom this will NOT install to the right folder, if you anything other than WWE look to Windows/Start Menu/Programs for the links and move them to you programs folder. Thanks NisseDILLIGAF for info on this.

*FIX FOR TEXT NOT APPEARING*
Just changed facebook.exe.0409.mui(WWE English) to facebook.exe.040C.mui(French). *Change according for your language*
from Neutron90, Thanks!
