fbook application? How do I get it on my g1 phone?

[Harb]

it sucks that I am coming across as such a moron, but I'm wondering if there is another solution to this problem. I have done that a number of times, and now it reads: There are no matches in Android Market for the search: fbook

go to:
market>applications>social

It should be in the top 5
There is:
Fbook
Facebook sync
Facebook lite

You probably want Fbook.

As I said before you can just use the browser and go to facebook.com mobile and it is pretty much the same.


I wonder if maybe it was removed for the UK...

Side note: cyrket is really really slow right now.

this is maddening, the things you are offering aren't working. When I follow market-apps-social I get myspace and the next thing that even looks like facebook is facebook synch, not even close to the same thing.

I'm wondering if the newer versions of the G! have made it impossible to access fbook from the market. or could it be because I am using a MAC?

Don't use your mac.
Pick up your phone
go to your home screen.
see that little grey bar with the triangle on it?
pull it up to see that giant list of every app on your phone.
You are looking for a white bag with a green android on it labelled "market"
This is the official android market, it's not a website, it's an app on your phone. THAT is where you need to look. If it's not there, in the app, on your phone, then there's something up with your phone.

Maybe he is running firmware v. 1.0? I just got my G1 today, and fbook is not showing up in the market because my firmware version is 1.0

 

[marshallladd]

I am having the same problem. I can't find fBook or locale in the marketplace at all. I am looking in the marketplace. Searched the marketplace using the search function and manually going through it till I just got fed up. My G1 is unlocked on and is on Tigo for service(hondran phone company, I am stationed here for now).

Any ideas? Are they T-mobile exclusive apps?

 

[shakkahop]

Thank you X, it really isn't there for some of us.

I do have T-MObile.

Are all of you guys in the UK or the States?

Your Region may not be named by program as one that can load program .. or the region is not yet recognized

ahhhhh that explains it

 

[punkzanyj]

that's bizarre, I have the same build and firmware version, all that, and just a few days ago (5/14) when I posted to this thread, I did a search and found fbook. Now, it's not on the market anymore. Good thing I have it installed already, but weird, in 6 days something happened that took it off the market for the non-cupcaked.

I just checked on my 1.5 version and it is not showing there now either ... so it has been pulled from the market .... not on Cyrket either ...

ah, well there we go. They're probably retooling it.

 

[wills1980]

after my problems in the topic below this i went to re-download it as it wasone of my apps and it had been removed from the market

 

[Senorkabob]

I hate to break it to all of you guys...

Just got my replacement phone from T-Mobile...

rc29 = no fbook
JF RC33 = no fbook
JF ADP1.5 = no fbook

Its gone. Not in the market anywhere.

No matter what framework.

 

[Harb]
