[Q] Engadget / Yahoo Mail problem in CM7 final - Nook Color General

Just flashed CM7 final without any issues.
But Yahoo Mail only loads 10 newest emails. Engadget app won't launch. Anybody had similar problems?

I concur on the Engadget app...not sure about Yahoo since I don't use it. It's a bummer, the Engadget app is one of my most used on my phone.

I don't use yahoo, but the Engadget app works fine for me... it used to show up too small but there is a fix in Spare Parts - uncheck compatibility mode. This fixed it to show up properly. Maybe try that? What error are you getting, just a FC?

I tried to disable the compatibility mode, rebooted, still Engadget came up with a white screen.

So far I like the Android mail app better than Yahoo's for Yahoo mail. It is working fine for me with CM7 release

I have the same issue with Engadget app. Blank page after uncheck compatibility mode and reboot.

Feel lucky that you can get Yahoo Mail to work at all on this device. Every time I try to set it up, it tells me that the password is incorrect, even though it isn't. I've tried this on 2.1-2.3.
Somewhat off topic, but I find it ironic that I can't sign into the XDA app and view a thread I've participated in without a FC.

While I'm not on CM7, yahoo mail will no longer download e-mails for me on my autonooted NC. Worked just after I installed it and then, no new e-mails (accoridng ot the app) since April 10. Of course, my inbox online would beg to differ.

The Engadget app just takes a real longtime to load the EULA on CM7. Leave it at the white screen for 10-30 secs, then click Accept, and then you'll be rockin'.

Yahoo Go! 2.0 on Tilt

The Yahoo Go! site does not list the ATT Tilt as a supported device. I was able to find the PPC 2.0 Beta cab floating around and it installed. However the app displays an error message during initial run. Has anyone gotten it to work on the Tilt?
Thanks!
I just installed it on my tilt and it works without any issues.

go to the link above and put your phone number in, click on the link when you get the txt message and make sure you save it anywhere you like (that is either phone memory or sd card) but install it into the phone memory.
Just took this pic with my camera and uploaded it using the mobile flickr! on Yahoo Go!

It is the same 2.0 beta...
Yahoo! Go, No Go
I am having the same issue.
App telling me to restart Yahoo! Go and try again with no luck.
Mine doesn't work either.
I'm using the AT&T rom. Never prompts me to allow the data connection. Just errors out. This really sucks, I was looking forward to trying it out.
I noticed this yesterday as well. Oh well. I was looking forward to trying it too.

I solved my problem by selecting Canada rather than United States. Seems like a strange problem (and workaround).
I flashed to the HTC ROM and reinstalled Yahoo Go and still same issue but the workaround seems to work fine.
What I really wanted to use it for was small business and IM e-mail but Yahoo doesn't support IM and it only allows you to check your default yahoo mail (which is the free account). So it was a waste of time since the other apps on it aren't all that useful. Oh well.
Yahoo Go 2.0 works on my Tilt. But Yahoo Go 3.0 Beta is out now...has anyone tried to get it to work on their WM6 device?
I've been trying too, has anyone figured this out yet!?

Facebook

So I was thinking that the contacts picture feature is really under used in most phones. I was wondering if there was a possibility of having an app that would sync contact photos with their profile pictures on facebook. You could sync by name or phone # if your friends have put their cell #s on their profile.
Also as a side note to that it would be nice to have a better facebook application something similar to the Iphone's app where you are able to use facebook chat aswell as see notification popups and such.

/me looks to see if he's on candid camera.
1) Open Market.
2) Search for "facebook"
3) Install app named "Facebook Contact Sync" (Syncs facebook photos to contacts)
4) Install app named "fbook" (general facebook app, no chat)
5) Install app Named "Meebo" (Supports facebook chat)
why cant there just be an all in one facebook app with chat. Why do i have to use 2 programs to do the job of one app that was already developed for the iphone and which im sure can be developed for the g1.
Sorry sir I'll get right on that.

Well from what i have read on this forum as well as off site, Developing a app for facebook with the abilities of the one for the iphone is virtually impossible at this time.
See, google and myspace are together and microsoft and facebook are together. and with apple, that app has access to the API's within facebook to easily sync and access facebooks information. Google doesnt have that ability since them and microsoft are "enemies". Full functionality with a facebook app for the G1 or android in general is probably not going to happen for a little while unless someone finds a way to access all the information on facebook.
i kinda of have an idea but i am not exactly sure if it would work

Are you the creator of the facebook app?
Bhogan123 I dont really think that that is entirely true though. There are many other programs that have integrated features with facebook. I dont think they are exclusively contracted with any company.
Fbook.
Does anyone of you have the last version of Fbook? Or any older one that is not current. I hate the new one, it won't let me upload photos!
Thanks in advance.
Have you tried emailing the dev and informing him of this issue?
I was being stupid. My album was full, it wasn't the application.
I just use iphone.facebook.com as a bookmark... the app just links you to the page anyways and I find it more stable than the app at times.
fBook application not in Market?
A friend just got the G1 this week. He is looking for the fBook application but cannot find it on the market. If he searches for "fBook" it does not come up. When he looks at the applications by popularity list, it is not there. I sent him the cyrtek barcode link and the market cannot find it: "There are no matches in Android Market for the searchname:com.nextmobileweb.fbook"
I can see it just fine on the market, I can search for it and find it, and the Cyrtek Barcode URL works as well. I do have the apk and I am waiting for him to get home to install it by "hand".
My question is, what could be the reason he does not see it? I do not yet know his firmware version and he is not the "rooting" kind. I assume (shame on me) that if he got the phone this week it should be at least on the RC 33 version, yes?
wergeld
Search typing facebook, i downloaded today...
Depending on when his supplier got the phone, it may still be on RC30. You should ensure that he's on RC33 at least, if for no other reason than he'll be ready for the OTA update push that's now occuring.
Because the market also works on SDK, if he is on the Android 1.0 SDK, he will not see any 1.1 or 1.5 applications, just as users on the 1.5 SDK will not see any 1.1 or older applications on the market either.
FBook?
EDIT: Apparently its still in the market...
Can someone confirm?
Im runnin ADP 1.5, and Im not really believing that it runs off SDK thing because I just re-rooted my new phone coming from another phone with 1.5 on it. I was able to download it on that phone fine.
I just did a fresh install of jf 1.5 adp, and can no longer find fbook in the market. I had this exact same rom installed previously, and was able to locate it with no difficulties. Seems strange...
I can't find it either and I'm on the new 1.5 official update.
Cyrket.com doesnt even have it listed under the "Social" section for any of the SDK numbers.
Maybe they're fixing it??
This is strange....
I can confirm its been pulled from the market. I just reflashed this morning and could not find the app. So I check my store demos just in case it was blocked. None of my G1s can find it in the market. I miss this app, if someone could upload the apk please, that would be awesome.

Should be 2.1.1
Why was it pulled?

"Currently unable

"Currently unable to download. Please try again later."
anybody else getting this incredibly annoying message?
Is there any way this could be more vague?

no different then many of the newb posts
ok, geez sorry.
fisrt is there a way to screen shot of my phone? maybe that would help.
anyway, it's like a notification window that covers the bottom row if icons on the home screen. can't get rid of it till i reboot the phone. there is an androidcentral.com thread "currently unable to download please try again later " that discussed it but didn't get to the bottom of the issue. i can't post the link cuz i'm a newb. i figued XDA could figure it out
Have you rooted your phone or done anything else to it? If you're rooted, you can take screenshots with ShootMe (you can download it from the market).
I believe the OP was referring to This post.
Is that right, OP?
i'm not rooted. right out of the box.
yes, veive. that's the post i was talking about.
so anybody here have any ideas?
It sounds like a 3rd party app that is messing up.
What apps do you have installed?
Edit to add: Have you tried a reset? also, what firmware are you using?

Likely either weatherbug or one of your news apps failing to connect.
Try uninstalling them one at a time and see if the issue goes away.

XDA App on NC

Wondering if any of you are experiencing this. I set the three NC forums (general, development, themes) as my favorites in my XDA app on my NC. Seems like most of the time I go into my favorites from the XDA app, it says "Connecting to server" and then just spins and spins and never gets anywhere. The only way I can get it to actually refresh is to back out of it and then hit refresh.
Any way to stop this? It's just annoying.
I'm always having to log in every time I open the app. Anyone know why?

I also find the XDA app to be a bit quirky. At times it makes me log in and other times it doesn't. When it doesn't is when I tend to have the same problems you've mentioned. The only way I get around it is to hit the back arrow, then menu-refresh. No solutions - but glad it's not just me having issues.
Crashes for me every time I do a search. Aria with FR008 final

the login issue is so annoying. If you back out of the app completely you have to login and it throws up the admin doesnt allow this error. What i do is hit my nook button to get out of the app so the login stays active.
All the other issues described i was unable to recreate sorry :/

Same here.
In fact, the login issue happens on all devices when using the back button...

Yea, I'm glad you mentioned that. I checked with my husband last night and the app behaves the same way on his Samsung Galaxy.

HC: Can't register with Google?

I'm seeing people getting the Market and installing gmail, apps, etc. However, when I try to launch the Market and sign into Google, all I get is that it cannot communicate with Google's servers.
What's the deal here? What am I doing wrong?
It literally sits there trying to authenticate with google for about 5 minutes and then just fails. I can open the browser and go to websites, so it's not the wifi connection. Any ideas?
I am not sure why it is not working for you, but a few things to try that might help:
*browse to Google and sign into Gmail first, then go to the Market
*browse to the new android market where all your previous downloads are and try to push and App through from there (set up your NC as a device if you haven't already or do so from your PC)
Basically.....try to go anywhere where you can log into your google account and then maybe when you can get to the Market.
have you actually installed the Market, pushed it via adb, or what?

I am getting the same issue. Did you resolve this yet?
I was in the middle of posting how I had the same issue, but then it got fixed....I went into the GMail app, tried to sign in, typed in the wrong PW, it said I put in the wrong PW, tryed to sign in again, and it actually signed in. Market works now too.
Maybe it was just a fluke, but try putting in the wrong login info first. :\
I have the same problem as well have installed gmail and market with adb but cant sign into either of them google tells me it cant establish a reliable data connection running HC version 4
try signing in with youtube like we always had to?
I'm in the same boat. I'm not sure if this thread is even live anymore, but maybe. So , any word on what to do here?
