UPDATE: If your using any of the new roms and are having a problem with the my profile page then use the file ive attached on the second page that should sort out the last part of the puzzle,..
DONT USE THESE FILES WITH ANY OF THE NEW ROMS FLOATiNG ABOUT
most new roms have most of the facebook problems sorted now, this was initially for people with the early versions of the new rhodium port,----
If you're creating your own rom you may still find some of these files useful so ill leave them here and when i finally sorted the my profile page ill upload all changes.
-----------------
Fb-RhodiumInt V01.zip
ok this is experimental and i take no responsibility for you having to hard reset your phone,
the facebook option has always been in the rhodium manila it was just left disabled so with a few edits to the manilla.xml file, it will then display the updates page in the all people tab.
there is a few missing manila files (that help with login etc) from quite alot of the rhodium roms/oems so now its just a case of finding them all,
i havent gone through all the differnt roms but im sure files needed will differ from person to person so hopefully if everyone intrested in this helps out we can find them all. i started from the rhodium oem package and added the files in the uploaded , so far i can see updates page, log in to facebook started to try and get updates but i dont think this is 100% and also the link to fb profile for your contacts isnt working.
So Basically
Working--
visible updates page in all contacts
Logs In to FB
NOT Working--
Link own Profile - not 100%
link friend profile
Don't know if you've got this working allready, but just in case
With Dutty's HD V2.2 Xtreme I think I got it all working (I think) with som reg edits! Manila even suggested to me wich friends I had in my phonebook that I also had on facebook, and linked them. I could upload birthdays and contact photos. Even status updates are displayed in my contact list.. To the people that manila didn't match between facebook and my phonebook, I could link to whatever facebook profile I liked.
well, could you please post the edits you made in the registry?
Have you had any problems with the facebook integration?
Thanks
im not sure if this works with davide's v3 im still looking into all roms, thanks for getting involved, if you can post the changes im sure it will help us get this fully done
I'm not 100% sure if this is everything I did, but I think so (I was just playing around).
In HKCU\Software\HTC\Manila I changed:
- Facebook.disable to 0
- Manila://people.page.hidden to 0
- Manila://people\browserlayer\peopleupdate.page.hidden to 0
- Manila://Peopledetail\peopleView.page.hidden to 0
I'm not sure how the facebook integration is supposed to work, so I don't know if something isn't working..
But all the things I wrote in my previous post works.
Remember I'm using Dutty's HD V2.2 XTREME
Oh, and btw, I get the link to my own profile also..
If i edit The facebookSDK in HKLM\Software\HTC to that I have a new message in my inbox, I can see this in the people update page, but that I didn't get to work if I actually had a message in my inbox.
Thanks to your tips, I managed to get the Updates page back into Dutty's Extreme 2.3, but when I try to login, the text box is 1 character shorter than my email address. All I can enter is <email>@gmail.co
Gutted! So close!
[UPDATE] Tried signing in with a shorter email address, but Manilla simply crashes and restarts
[UPDATE2] Having checked the FacebookSDK in HKLM\Software\HTC, it seems it did actually sign me in (status, birthday etc are all there), but it still crashes when I try to go to the Updates page

Same problem here.
It crashes.
I'm using V2.2, it works for me..
I'm actually on Dutty's Xtreme v2.3 and i can confirm that Facebook integration works 100% with his ROM...the only thing is that it links to the mobile version of facebook with TF3D in Opera...
Anyway, congrat's on your find and hope you get things sorted out with the integration to work 100%...
guys - only the MSVC version of Duttys 2.3 has the facebook fixes
I think the ones saying that the facebook page crashes are indeed using Dutty's 2.3. I say this because I am one of them. Logging into the facebook via TF3D crashes it, but the login data is maintained, so I can link the various contacts. The only page which consistently crashes TF3D is the main facebook one (IE the one not tied to any contact).
Considering this issue happens even after a reflash and a hard reset I am thinking it has something to do with the facebook profile itself, as the Touch HD regional settings clearly don't affect it (I tried it with my local settings, UK settings and US settings).

With or without the fix posted in this thread?
Thanks
EDIT
nvm, just read his changelog
The integration works on the mvsc verion of duttys 2.3 but still has the problem of the long email address.
I have tried using a shorter email address and it works perfectly
Any update on this

duttys 2.3 doesnt 100% work for me either, most of it works apart from the my profile link with reboots tf3d, its the same place i am now with all the work ive been doin on my own rom, the only rom i have seen the my profile page work in is davide V2 topaz rom, ill have another look at duttys rom again because you people have made me doubt myself. i kinda given up hope on 100% working but im sure ill get it done, so far tho my volume down key is no more. lol

Same here, I can link contacts to FB friends, but my on updates causes Manilla to crash.
I'm starting to get really upset. :'(
I have to say this is very good news! Since I'm on old Dutty 1.9 ROM I won't test this just yet, but it definitively looks like a step in the right direction.
Facebook integration was the only big feature missing from these new ROM's. I hope other programmers will join so we can finally get this working 100%.
if anyone is out there with the my profile issue still i used this file from the latest rhodium dump and all is now working 100%
On my Desire Z i have a HTC Widget called "HTC News" which i use a lot to get my news.
However the 17th of December at 1:48PM this widget/app decided to stop working.
I havent received any news since this time. If i tap update in the htc news app it just dosnt get anything, like there haven't been any news since that day. The Apps settings is set to update everytime the app open up and every 30 minuttes. If i do a sync it dosnt get anything either.
If i however add some new RSS it is working inside the app but not on the widget. The widget just loads forever..
I know the RSS links are correct as they work on my Google Reader which they've been importet from. They have also worked for about two weeks before this startet happening.
Anybody else experiencing something like it? Or even better - knows a solution to it?

Delete / re-add widget?
Allready tried that
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App
Yeah -- I think its just not that well-written of an app/widget.
I tried reinstalling, and likewise it still refused to update. then I tried clearing out the user data -- now when I add the widget it just goes to the Subscription window and sits on Loading.... forever.
Removed and now I'm using the android "news and weather" widget.
Mistaken post. Conversation has moved to figuring out Twitter integration in the latest mango release.
But Twitter contacts DO integrate with people. What are you talking about?
You're telling me you can link a twitter handle to a person in your people hub? And then pin that tile to the start screen and see their facebook and twitter updates?
I am not certain whether tweets show on the tile or not, but yes you can link them.
Twitter contacts only show up if you hit the search button on your contact list or on the list that shows up when you hit link>choose a contact.
Give it a try.
No luck. Maybe I missed a setting somewhere. Can you post a screenshot showing them linked?

Same here. Can't find any contacts.
Twiter integration is not in mango beta 7661.

Can't do screenshots in Mango to my knowledge, but here.
I'm not using 7661, I updated to the latest beta this morning. And that is very cool, hopefully it gets worked out on my end. To your knowledge, can you pin a contact to the start screen and see their tweets? Do mentions show on your Me tile?
A much easier way to integrate...
go to settings > applications > People > filter my contact list > check twitter.
there you go. you've got twittered. ;-) then you can go around linking like normal (in case it's needed.)
Unfortunately I've done that and still no luck =)
I wonder if it's a location- based thing. I read somewhere (on Twitter I believe) that it is against Twitter's ToS somehow to integrate the contacts with one's phone. So maybe the ToS vary by region? Worth looking into. I'm unable to see my Twitter contacts and I'm in the UK.
Another possibility: something is wrong with the integration. I have also seen people logging into live.com and managing the twitter integration from there; if I try that, my Facebook shows up but twitter is nowhere to be seen...
Sent from my HD7 using XDA Windows Phone 7 App
I'm beginning to think it has to do with the frequency of tweets and whether or not you've replied to one of their tweets from the phone..
I can see a re-tweet from last week that one of my friends did, but I can't find her twitter contact to link.. I have a co-worker I've been tweeting back and forth with and testing things and he shows up.. everyone showing up has tweeted something since I started following them.

Possibly. WithinRafael tweeted earlier today;
Curious why Twitter isn't integrated with #wp7 Contacts? Blame Twitter. (It's against their ToS/AUP)

Here in Australia, I have people's tweets showing in 'What's New', but they're not people. Twitter is selected in 'Filter my Contacts'. I'm also wondering if it's because I'm too popular
I currently have ~7,200 followers and follow ~3,000 people... maybe it's smart enough to ignore them all?
He later clarified that he was talking about it from an API perspective.
It is possible to link people you are following to your existing contacts.. I've done it.. but if I follow a new person, it doesn't seem to update automatically..
edit -
I deleted my twitter account from the phone and re-linked it to windows live by adding it to the phone again.. after it finished, I had the new person I had followed in my contact list.
Hopefully this is a glitch in this version and is fixed in RTM..
I live in the US and I have Twitter setup on my WP7, and there is no way to link anything to a contact... I just tried removing and the Twitter account and setting it up again, nothing... hmm.
same here, I have some twitter integration, but no twitter contacts; no linkedin contacts either

I can confirm that mentions show up on the Me tile. Not sure about pinned contacts, but I suspect those work too.
Yes, recent tweets show up on the live tile if you pin one to the start screen.
Hopefully Microsoft gets this sorted out before the mango update goes out to customers and new devices are sold.. it should work consistently and easily.. which it does not now.

Ok yeah just tested this. Works with both individual pinned contacts and pinned contact groups.
Hi guys, I installed a new Rom the other day which didn't have timescape.
So I went back to my stock backup and installed the following:
Timescape 1.0.2
Timescape widget 1.0.1
Timescape Feeds 1.4.2
Infinite View
Event stream engine 2.0.14
Facebook post viewer 1.0.A.0.3
Everything sorta works. Only problem is that it doesn't update so I'm stuck with statuses that happened last month, and that the twitter icon and facebook icons are now timescape icons in the app (if you know what I mean?) also it won't update twitter or facebook statuses
Can anyone be kind enough to link me to the remaining apks? Those were the only ones I could find with my titanium backup
Thanks guys
EDIT: ok managed to get it to connect to facebook and twitter. Twitter connects fine and updates properly on timescape. Whilst facebook connects and does not update.
I've also managed to get it so I can write statuses from timescape and it updates to twitter and facebook.
I just need to get the right thing so the facebook tab gets updated too.. :-S
Would also like to know. I kinda miss Timescape.
I think the social.zip found here may help you. Credits to Vokal1992 as it is an addon for his rom
does it work with CM9?
Don't know, I'll try when I install CM9 again tomorrow and I'll let you know. I'm guessing it doesn't but I'll let you know for sure when I try it

Hi all,
Since XDA changed (argh nightmare, hate the default dark mode, my password was too complex, etc) the RSS feed I was using to read the news on Feedburner has also died - how can I get the news from XDA via RSS still? Tried searching but no joy - been using XDA over 10 years now so don't want to lose out on my fix!

That is weird, my feed reader uses that and it works perfectly fine. I use Foxish live RSS feed to add feeds as live bookmarks to Chrome.
Really odd - does work at all in Flym on my phone and it's the only RSS feed I can't get working - I've got around 15 others from various sites that work perfectly. Who knows why, annoying to miss out reading xda each day.
I just registered to XDA Developers to help you. I moved back to RSS from social media and decided on Flym. I Got everything to work except xda-developers RSS feeds.
Based on the GitHub page, Flym development has stopped due to a Google Play Store policy change... but the last change in Flym version 2.5.6 was to the feed code.
I downloaded Flym 2.5.5, the previous version, from https://m.apkpure.com/. Just search for Flym and then scroll the resulting page up to locate the previous version Installers.
Here's the actual download page. I don't know the forum's rules on hyperlinks. I'm just here trying to help...
https://m.apkpure.com/flym-news-reader/net.frju.flym
I exported an OPML file from Flym 2.5.6, then uninstalled Flym 2.5.6.
I installed older Flym 2.5.5 (tap the downloaded *.apk file in whatever file explorer app you use and choose Package Installer). I launched Flym 2.5.5 and imported the OPML file to get my feeds listed again.
Finally, I added the xda-developers feed and edited the feed URL to contain the following text...
Code:
https://www.xda-developers.com/feed
After refreshing the feed, the xda-developer articles loaded!
Be careful not to let the older side-loaded app version get automatically updated to the newer version with the feed issue. I tested 20 RSS readers since last week and I find Flym to be the best.
I hope this helps you!
Cheers
I confirm version 2.5.5 (from apkpure) works.
If I find time I will download the code and see if I can fix (or suggest a fix)
I really hope someone takes over Frederic...
Thanks for the great tool Frederic!
