I have the latest 9320 3g bb, i don't have the BB Addon, and im using wifi, when i try to check in it just says aquiring location and my location is never found. In my options GPS services are all on and in my fb settings places is also on but it's still not working? do i need to edit a privacy setting on fb?
Just got my blackberry curve 8520 today and want to let my facebook friends know i was at home but the places icon, wasnt giving me a check in option, only showing where my friends where. can anyone help and let me know how i check in on the facebok app?
I cannot check in to places on facebook. I have re installed facebook and checked my gps with location on.. I have a curve 8300 and it tells me my location is unavailable.
for the past 2 days FB places hasnt worked on my torch. When i go into options the check box is greyed out so I cant select it. Ive searched through like a million support forums who all seem to say the same thing...the GPS or maps is disabled. I have checked all these and they are all enabled. GPS location is on, I confirmed this is by switching on the Geo tagging on my camera, all working fine...
For the past week or so when i try and check in on facebook places on my blackberry bold 9780 its not been working, its always worked perfect until i tried about a week or so ago, and since then ive tried nearly everyday just to see if its working but no nothing, keeps coming up with facebook error 2002 try again later. It works fine, finds my location, asks me if i want to check in, i click on check in and thats when the error message comes up, so doesnt let me finally check in. I dont know if its since ive updated to the new facebook app, i dont always use places, just now and again ,but always has worked great, until when i tried a week ago, it wouldnt let me and hasnt since. Ive got my location settings ON on options and ive refreshed GPS ,tried it with wireless on and wireless off, in many different locations, reboot phone etc but nope still the same.
i have read through everything on here regarding this and am confused slightlY. can i use facebook places on my curve 8520 or not i have installed all the latest upgrades etc
I have a BlackBerry curve 8520 and i'm with T-Mobile. I have version 5.0 updated on my device and I have recently upgraded my Facebook application, my friends have the exact same phone as me and their Facebook places are now working... but when I try to "Check in" on my device it says No GPS Support, Your device does not support location servives. To use Facebook Places, a device with buillt-in location services is required. How come my friends have it and I don't?
does anyone know how to really sort out places in facebook? i know the 8250 doesnt have gps but it should still work using cell site location..i can get my location using google maps using cell site so i know my phones cell site works, but dont understant why it wont work in Facebook.
Facebook places was working fine on my device, but now it wont show my proper location on the facebook places map when i'm at home....when im out at other places it works fine, but i've never had this problem before as i used to be able to check in where i live...Blackberry maps show the right location but the facebook one dosn't....My facebook is up to date so i know thats not the problem.
I just bought my Blackberry Curve 8520 3 weeks ago. I'm just wondering why I can't use Facebook Places. My cousin has also the same unit but she can use it. I go to Settings then Options then Advance Options and I can only find Location Settings. I have paired my phone to same Blackberry 8520. Location Services is ON. Location Data is ENABLED. And one thing more, I cannot received files through bluetooth.
iv been accessing my facebook the my BB 8520 as i want to maximize all the functions it offers. just some things i want to make clear about... first, whenver i would use Facebook places, the location pin just would not point at the exact place where i am even if i have added it by myself.. theres no funcition on ho to edit the mp so that itll point exactly ro where it is supposed to be.. nother thng, whenver i would upload pics from BB to facebook.. theres just no feature wherre i can tag pics to my friends.
I've tried to use places on fb but it doesn't give me the option. On share my location with facebook the writings grey and its not available. I've tried upgrading the fb but it says my device isn't compatible or something like that. I have a 8520 curve, everyone else i know who has the same phone and network 02 can use theirs and its frustrating that I cant use something simple on it.
My Facebook application was working perfectly on my Curve 9300, but then my Blackberry got wiped while I was trying to get it unlocked, and although I've gotten everything else back to nornal, I have't been able to check-in on Facebook.When I try to check in, it takes a long time saying 'aquiring location', and then eventually tells me 'Unable to retrieve your location. Your location is temporarily unavailable. Please try again.I've downloaded the recent update for the Facebook app, restarted the phone, Google maps works just fine, I've checked that the GPS is turned on, everything seems to be ok, except the check in feature is stil not working.
I downloaded the new version facebook the other day and ever since then I haven't been able to use my places feature. It keeps saying "unable to retrieve your location, please try again later." I've re-downloaded facebook hoping that would help and it didn't. Does any have any idea on how I can fix this?
connecting to the Places App via Facebook, keeps saying Location temporarily unavailable, I have contacted my Wi Fi supplier who assures me everything is connected and fine, even refreshed it, checked all settings on fone and the only thing I've noticed is that it won't allow me to tick the Share My Location With Facebook option, it's a grey colour and I can't tick it!
My facebook places does not work!!!! I have already changed my location to ON and my map app does work and is able to get my current location. The Facebook option to share my location is grayed out and its still not working! I have a BB 9780..
My Wife has a BB Torch and we can't find the 'Places' icon on the ribbon/banner of the Facebook app. I pressed the menu button and check options but there was nothing in there. I tried to check for Face updates but it was check off to check automatically. GPS location is enabled in system properties.
checking in on Facebook with a photo? I've done 3 check-ins with a photo, 2 of which were two separate stories on my feed. Has anyone else encountered this, and is there a workaround or something I should do different?
Can't get places & Check in to work on Facebook. Error : Every time I go into places to check in I get " The application Facebook ( process com.facebook.katana) has stopped unexpectedly. Pleas try again. Don't think I have it set up right.
When I updated Facebook the Facebook Icon stopped working. I tried to delete it but a messege came up say Facebook already scheduled for deletion. Deletion will occur when handheld is restarted. How do I restart the handheld device? I have an 8520 v5
With device 'on' and connected to my PC by USB, I have repeatedly tried the website update button over the last week. Nine times out of ten, the instant I click produces 'Error on page' at screen bottom and repeat clicking gets me nowhere. Once in ten tries, a progress bar opens at screen bottom. It usually takes 30 minutes to reach 50% and by 45 minutes, there has been no further progress and 'Error on page' is displayed. I have the BB Desktop Manager software installed on the PC.
Smart Lock for Trusted devices (that is, bluetooth) works fine. however, Trusted places does NOT work EVER.
i can add Trusted places such as Home, my office, etc.... but it does nothing. no matter what, it won't allow me two swipe up to access the phone- it requires my PIN 100% of the time.
Location Mode is High accuracy (GPS and networks).
I've rebooted many times. I've added, removed, and added places... no place ever works for this feature.
