Is facebook connect and flurry analytics working for Android?

Solar2D Daily Builds and Public Releases
#21

Hi, Tom

I got daily build 511 but still not solving my problem.

I did try the facebook sample, and “Show Dialog” works once in a while, but the other function can not work.

The strange thing is how the “Show Dialog” works, I had to try the button twice. The first it goes to loading, but nothing happened. The second time I pressed the button, then the login windows shows.

Most of the time the facebook sample does not work.

I was a bit disappointed.

Tom,

Btw. I do think that facebook.request() does support parallell asynch requests (I just did some quick testing), but the problem is that the responses can come back in any order (just like network.download), so one would need a separate listener for each request since right now there is no way of knowing what request is being responded to.

Would it be possible to change the API of facebook.request() to include a listener parameter? Not a terribly important improvement, but it would make multiple requests faster and also be a cleaner api I think.

Cheers,

To all who are having problems running the Facebook sample on Android, please check to see if you are running an updated Facebook app on your device.

A user reported that installing the “Facebook for Android” app from the Android Market, breaks the Corona Facebook app. I confirmed the problem on my Nexus One (v2.2) that works well with our Facebook sample. When I downloaded and started the updated FB app, I can no longer log in to Facebook from our sample. It calls the normal FB logon screen showing an activity indicator and then the screen goes black. If I check the history of running apps (press and hold the Home button), it shows the FB app was last running.

It looks like the updated FB app takes over the FB callback function and gets called when the Corona FB logon is called. This even occurs when I “force quit” the FB app. This may indicate a bug outside of Corona (just my guess).

We also have a ATT HTC Sense that shows the same problem. When I check the list of Apps (under Manage applications), it shows “Facebook” and “Facebook for HTC Sense”, so the carrier has preloaded an updated FB app.

I’ll file this as a bug for Engineering to see if there is a resolution.

Just as another data point:-
I’m running into the same issue here with failure to post to FaceBook. Device tested:-

  • Dell Streak7 (Android 2.2.3)
  • Has the built-in Dell FaceBook app. I have not updated it from Android Marketplace.
  • Corona SDK version : 2011.484 (2011.4.12)

The same code worked fine with IOS. [import]uid: 65052 topic_id: 9977 reply_id: 42552[/import]

@mda7,

If you go into Manage Applications, do you see two entries for Facebook? On the ATT HTC Sense I see the original Facebook app and one for the HTC Sense installed by ATT (which can’t be removed). This causes the Corona Facebook interface to fail. [import]uid: 7559 topic_id: 9977 reply_id: 42679[/import]

@Tom \ Ansca Staff

Under Manage Applications, there is only one Facebook entry (1.97 MB) version 1.5.1.

To be clear this is a brand new Dell Slate7 (I bought it 06/26/2011). The only two apps I installed on it are DropBox and my test game developed using MAC OS X - Corona SDK version : 2011.484 (2011.4.12).

Since getting to market is a priority to me now, I’m going to disabled the Facebook functionality in my app now, and then re-enabled it via an update once this posting to Facebook issue is addressed.

As an aside, it would be great to add FaceBook connection functionality testing as part of your regression pass before a release, if this is not done already. [import]uid: 65052 topic_id: 9977 reply_id: 42710[/import]

@ansca

Just wondering about the priority of this issue, since our app requires Facebook connect, so this is pretty much a showstopper for an android release.

Thanks,
