Update: Got it working!
Here is how to connect your Messaging Hub to Facebook Chat:
On your phone, remove the Facebook account setup
On your PC (or in IE9 on the phone), go to home.live.com.
Under "Messenger social" click "Connect Facebook"
Go through the steps to connect Facebook to your Live account
On your phone, add the Facebook account under 'Settings' / 'Email and Accounts'
When it asks if you want to connect to Facebook Chat, tap 'Not now'.
Let it sync
Facebook Chat should automatically be activated as long as it has finished its initial syncing
If you want to check if it's activated:
Go to the Messaging Hub
Tap 'Settings'
Facebook Chat is the first option and should be activated. If not, you can activate it now.
Initial post: I have been attempting to setup Facebook Chat through the Messaging Hub in Mango, but after it says "We're connecting to Facebook" it just puts me on the Mobile version of my Facebook homepage but doesn't ask me to do anything and is not setup on the Messaging Hub when I hit the back arrow.
Has anyone had success connecting the Messaging Hub to Facebook Chat? If so, how did you go about doing it? Changing settings in IE9 doesn't seem to do anything about it.
Ahh same here, fb chat worked in mango b2 but once I updated to 7712 it stopped working

Mine wasn't working in the first Beta 2 either. I suppose this is a Beta limitation so hopefully it'll be fixed in the final version.
You can try linking your Facebook and Windows Live on your computer. I had this setup initially and never had a single issue with fb chat on any mango beta.

You can try the menthod i am trying.
1. Link your Live ID with Facebook (Piece of Cake), make sure you can chat with someone on Facebook through Windows Live Messenger (On the PC)
2. Add Facebook to your phone
3. Choose "not now" when it asks you if you want Facebook chat on yourphone
4. Let it sync
5. You are done.
If you don't understand that much, just shoot me a reply, i will guide you step by step.
Mine didn't work until I performed these steps....
1) Go to Home.Live.com and choose to sync Facebook with my Live account
2) Remove the Facebook account from my phone
3) Re-add the Facebook account to my phone
4) Re-attempt to enable Facebook Chat on my phone, which then worked properly
It's been great ever since!
Got it working! I deleted the Facebook account setup on my phone, associated my Live ID with Facebook through live.com, re-added the Facebook account on my phone, and it worked. Thank you guys!
Hi!
I'm trying to get this app running, but without success.
When I start it I will be asked "you don't appear to be logged in Facebook. Do you want to sign in?"
When I click OK, I see "Add an account" in the top line, but nothing more happens and I can't add an account.
I also tried to add the account in Friendstream there I can choose between Facebook, Twitter and Flcikr. Facebook has no logo and when selection the Facebook text nothing happens.
What am I missing?
You need to download facebook app from Market.
thx very much! fixed my problem
Anyone getting a notification to login to Facebook when starting the phone? I get it every time. It's not the Facebook app, it's the sync apps with Facebook account. You can see it under accounts in settings. Maybe it only turned on when I clicked that but didn't log in. Wth does Samsung want to sync with my Facebook!
Just sign in. It's to sync fb pics and calendar. You can just sign in and not sync it.
