Blinkfeed and Facebook - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

When I clicked on a facebook post on my blinkfeed, it would open up facebook to that specific post. Ever since the last facebook update, when I click on a facebook post on my blinkfeed it just opens facebook, doesn't take me to that post. I reset my facebook app and same thing. Just wanted to know if other people are having the same issue?

Yup same problem here, it just takes me to the beginning of newsfeed, doesn't actually take me to the article I clicked on and want to read about, going to look into it.

Let me know if you come up with something please. I'll do some looking on my end too.

Same problem here.
Best solution at this problem so far:
Keep facebook app open (working on background/tasked) and blinkfeed links should work.

Beautiful Widgets Won't Download.

Alright. Let me lead off by saying I searched google and this forum and I couldn't find the answer to my problem. I have found the "answer" to my problem that has worked for other people but not for me. So let me explain my problem and the solutions I tried. Any help would be appreciated.
I bought Beautiful Widgets from the market place. When i go to download it, it says "download unsuccessful". Let me make clear that i'm not rooted (or ever want to be) and I'm running 2.1-update1.
Solutions that I've tried..
1. settings > apps > manage apps > I cleared data in the "Download Manager" and cleared cache in the "Market" section.
Basically i took this advice, http://androidforums.com/samsung-moment/38687-problem-beautiful-widgets.html, it worked for that dude, Didn't work for me.
2. I've restarted the phone a few times and that didn't work.
3. I refunded my money, and bought the app again, didn't work that time either.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
Edit: I gave this a new title because paid apps do download, just not beautiful widgets.
Can you install any app at all or does this affect all apps?

thanks for the reply
this only happens to paid apps. After all of this happened, I successfully downloaded beautiful silent widgets (or w/e) in the market and it was free.

I tried both.. also i set up a google voice account (like that one post suggested) .. i signed in and out of it and back in.. and still that app didn't download.
extremely frusterating
update: ok i bought doodle jump lol.. and that worked.. so i guess it must be something wrong with beautiful widgets?

Do they take apps down when they update them? Just curious, after you answer that i'll give an update after I find out what the problem is.
A dude on #android on Efnet IRC has the same problem.
He tried to buy it, said it went successful, then it was authorizing purchase for a long time.
Then got stuck, then Google issued him a refund because of some server error.
Now, when he goes to his downloads, it says Beautiful Widgets still says "purchased".
The BW author is on twitter all the time. I talk to him time to time. I think it was yesterday he mentioned that there are problems with his server and discussing with the powers that be to get a new one. If you have a twitter account, you may try him there if you havent sent him an email already.
hum - having exactly the same problem.. says purchased, click install, says download unsuccessful.. Followed the cache clear and made no difference..

bumping this:
I have emailed dev - but no reply..
Anyone have any thoughts?
Sorry I don't have an answer for you, but Beautiful Widgets caused problems for me anyway. Constant freezes and crashes. Overall slowdown of everything. I'm back to normal after uninstalling.

They will appear as three little dot's somewhere on your screen when you have the application open

Did you read my post? Launch the app, once it is launched three little dots will appear at the top or bottom of the screen, these are where you enter any applications settings.

Try a long-press on the screen? Most apps will follow the android guidelines of using the 3 dots to indicate the menu, but others (especially homescreens) will rely on long-presses to declutter the UI.

whatsapp for pc

Hello
I read the news here: http://www.independent.co.uk/life-s...pp-now-available-on-web-browsers-9993675.html that whatsapp is now available on the web for pc. The news said to use only Chrome. But my chrome window only shows rotating timer, no qrcode comes up. Has anybody else tried this and succeeded? The same thing on Opera, though on Firefox the error message said to use chrome.
thanks

Is it true? Have you installed and use it?
WhatsApp for pc is very useless. We went back to the times of MSN? WhatsApp is very helpful only on MOBILE!

It would be nice to have it, without needing any Android/iOS Device/Émulator
But nearly EVERYBODY has a PDA.
If so, please without this bug: http://forum.xda-developers.com/general/general/hot-whatsapp-killer-message-t2985248

I dont know whether it will be useful or not, but I am willing to try.

This is not an addon. This works in Chrome and Opera. Not in Firefox. Go to https://web.whatsapp.com, there will be a barcode, which you have to read with your device. Instructions for different devices like IOS, Android, Windows etc are on the webpage.
I use the web version when I'm at work because I don't want to get out my phone all the time or awkwardly press it when it's in it's stand. So yeah, I like it.

I cannot update VIE-L29C363B190 to Nougat
Hi,
Go to Google app>Settings>Voice>OK Google> Disable OK Google recognition on any screen. This happens after the latest Google app update and it should be addressed in future updates.

Blokada breaks FB Messenger calls, but only on this device. Any solutions?

FB Messenger works fine with Blokada on other devices.
On my Pixel 4 XL, during FB Messenger calls it causes cell data to constantly toggle off and on every 5-10 seconds.
Has anyone found a solution for this? (Other than the dELetE fAcEbOoK meme.)

Sorry to revive this, but I also have this issue on my Galaxy S10e. Were you able to resolve this?

Don’t apologize, internet threads stay around for exactly this reason. I hate people who are bothered by “reviving” “old” threads.
But no, there is no resolution. FB wants to track you so the best thing I’ve come up with is finding your preferred way to toggle blokada off during and then back on after FB calls.

I see, thanks for the response! Still hoping this get fixed eventually
I remember this happening one of the rare times I used messenger calling, but I only use AdAway, so I would think it's due to a blocked DNS/address request. Bout to go to work but when I have time I'll look and see what DNS/address is causing the issue. Idk if you can whitelist in Blockadia tho?
