I am using the Cordova official Facebook plugin and run into a weird issue...
The login process, which previously worked just fine for me, is now open in some native Android "black-screen" view without any styling.
The functionality works just fine - the authentication process succeeds, so there is a consistent connection with Facebook. The thing is, I am expecting a Facebook view instead of only the text content without any styling. Here is an example with Facebook native Hackbook app:
Tried running on two different devices - the issue remains.
Tried with cordova 2.2.0, then started a fresh project with 2.5.0 - the issue remains.
Please advice.
UPDATE:
Well, I have spent too much time on this issue, and it seems like this is the new Facebook SDK for Android.
I really wish I am wrong here, but here are examples from Facebook's flow for Android:
https://developers.facebook.com/docs/howtos/androidsdk/3.0/login-with-facebook/
Also - when checking the other sample apps in the SDK, all of them behave the same. The only one that shows a Facebook page is the Hackbook, and by it might be because this app is implemented with the old API (version 2):
https://developers.facebook.com/docs/getting-started/facebook-sdk-for-android/3.0/
Hackbook: another sample app demonstrating a selection of Graph API calls. Note that this sample is untouched from v2.0 of the SDK, and demonsrates the SDK's backward-compatibility.
UPDATE 2:
Ok, digging a bit more into it, it seems that there is no iframe involved here, the screen can be changed as you wish with a regular android activity theme added to the activity.
Here is an example of adding one of Androids default themes to the androidMenifest.xml (you can of course create your own Faceboke like theme ):
<activity android:name="com.facebook.LoginActivity"
android:theme="#android:style/Theme.Black.NoTitleBar"
android:label="#string/facebook_login" />

How to implement AdSense or any other to show ads on the flutter website (flutter web app).
Which are the ad provider options like Adsense for a flutter web app.
Currently if you try, your application will be submitted for review, and then you will inaccurately obtain a "Valuable Inventory: No content" flag/violation. The problem is noticed though, but unfortunately it will be a good amount of time before it gets prioritized over the mobile ad framework.
https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/40376
I don't think flutter is in a mood to encourage adds on flutter web. Google uses crawlers to search the content on websites which will not work in case of flutter that well event though you try to inject adds through js code using plugin and this made me scrape my whole UI project and start it over again on angular or react.
Take a look at this new package I just saw has been released. Still in the infancy stages as it says but it's a start at least.
https://pub.dev/packages/admanager_web
Example of implementation:
AdBlock(
size: AdBlockSize.largeRectangle,
adUnitId: "/6355419/Travel/Europe",
)
"Gameroom(windows)"
I'm trying to integrate our game with Facebook Gameroom. The first step is Login integration.
Seems, the official SDK does not support "Gameroom(windows)" Login.
Where can I find the unity SDK that supported "Gameroom(windows)" Login?
Has anyone integrated with Gameroom before?
Thanks.
I had the same question up until yesterday. I would direct you to this link: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/games/gameroom
You want to use at least Unity 5.6.2 and use the Facebook Gameroom (Windows Native) build included in Unity. Use the 7.10 SDK (choose it from the dropdown it'll say 'Facebook SDK 7.10.1') on the Build Settings screen.
The link that I gave is needed as once you have the build set up there's a lot of things that you need to do to make it work, and the link will help you through that. (On the page in the documentation, there's a link that will take you to the build and testing page - it's the second set of instructions).
I'm currently in the process of porting over a Mobile game to FB Gameroom, so I am going through it myself. Oh! and you'll want to have the 7.10.0 Facebook SDK (available from Facebook) as a .unitypackage file.
The reason for the unity package version is that you will seriously want the examples directory and scripts so that you can implement facebook's api. Do NOT install the entire package as that will blow everything up, just need the scripts and the scenes.
That should get you started. Also, a tech-tip... if you are using UNITY IAP, it will log into facebook on its own (to set up the codeless IAP stuff). I found that out AFTER I modified the examples to handle the login and initialization of the Facebook API.
Good Luck!!!
I am currently developing a mobile application using the ionic framework. We recently decided to begin integrating social logins into the application. Soon after adding google oauth, a notification indicating a deprecation of oauth requested through webviews in 2016/17 began appearing. After researching the error I found the following article. From my understanding cordova is run entirely using web views.
Does this mean authentication via oauth in an Ionic / Cordova app will now be impossible for both Android and iOS? I have been researching for an entire day trying to find a work around ( Getting a call back from the system browser to my ionic application ) to no avail.
Does anyone have any experience or similar concerns who could share their experience with this news?
Thanks all
Some explanations from the Ionic team :
http://blog.ionic.io/google-oauth-changes/
Looks like the ionic team has pulled down this article: http://blog.ionic.io/google-oauth-changes/
Hopefully it will be back up soon.
For now, refer to this plugin, which I am almost positive was the recommendation:
https://github.com/EddyVerbruggen/cordova-plugin-googleplus
I'm looking to build a mobile application using Meteor+Cordova. Looking to get the Facebook login to work first. Apparently the default accounts-facebook package doesn't work so I looked around atmosphere and only found "particle4dev:cordova-fb", so I tried using that.
I'm a bit confused about the app developer stuff. Normally I just use it for my website so its quite straight forward. In terms of setting up the login details (such as ID and token), do I register as if it's an IOS app? Or do I still register as if its web?? It asks me to download XCode SDK for FB, is that what I'm supposed to be doing? is the package mentioned above what I should be using, or are there more mainstream options available?
I was also facing problem with accounts-facebook package. It was using in-app cordova browser and failing at the time of oauth handshake.
I added cordova:com.phonegap.plugins.facebookconnect#0.11.0 to app and enabled it for single sign on from developer account on facebook.
If you face any problem then please look at my blog here. I have written a simple tutorial.
If there are still some people to fix this thing, this may help them.
I've just used the latest version on github.
removing the plugin and adding it again like this:
meteor add cordova:com.phonegap.plugins.facebookconnect#https://github.com/Wizcorp/phonegap-facebook-plugin/tarball/d8b0f6935a7c6e586188bf85f9da88a1c160790b
This above code with particle4dev:cordova-fb worked like a charm on android and it should work on ios devices also. It seems they fixed the issue in their updates.
accounts-facebook package works fine. I just created a new project and tried, you can refer to this screencast http://recordit.co/7JNpDSzJ9m
if you are using accounts-facebook, you need to register the app as web on fb
So I've been trying to use particle4dev:cordova-fb for awhile now. For those who are confused about how to implement it. First you add it as a package to your existing app. Then you add the facebookconnect cordova plugin. Then you add the android platform. Then try and run the android platform (meteor run android --settings settings.json). This should fail. Now go through the steps on implementing facebookconnect on Android. This should make sure it works on android now. However even after doing all of this and getting it to work, it still simply opens up the in app browser on android for some reason.
I have been recently begin working with phonegap and I notice that there is no tutorial for phonegap 2.2, the most recent version. What's more, since phonegap 2.0 there has apparently been drastic changes. I am having lots of trouble with using phonegap since I am new to web-iphone apps.
I am trying to make an application with phonegap to use facebook log in to get your data (pics, friends, etc) and then post on your facebook page, update status, etc. Basically a social App.
It seems that no tutorial is clear on any facebook-phonegap integration and social web based app.
I have seen a video with phonegap 1.8 tutorial and have followed it very close, only to get many errors.
I followed the one on:
https://github.com/davejohnson/phonegap-plugin-facebook-connect
and have had protocol.
I have tried many different things, but it seems that xcode simply is not able to recognize some functions or protocols. I am looking to see if I missed anything, but Ive added everything according to steps followed.
Ive tried adding the facebook.Framework, the extra headers, heck, Ive even added all of the files from the facebook SDK in the src file of the package:
https://github.com/facebook/facebook-ios-sdk
I cant seem to put together a simple facebook log in app...
anyone got it to work? what are the exact steps to follow? Im good with a new 2.2 cordova project and up until I put the files: FacebookCOnnectPlugin.h and .m that is where everything gets messed up.
I DO have the libsqlite3.0.dylib and HAVE followed the steps, added all the stuff in various .plist and all these weird long and annoying procedures many times...
Ive tried adding various libraries and just can't come up with anything else so why can't I just start a simple cordova project and get the option to log-in connect fb. like a simple hackbook sample.... I get it working in Objective-c demo (new single view application project)... Why does everything have to be so difficult and not working. I just want to get a page to start coding at. Just to get to this point, not even starting is so difficult.
very frustrating....
any help is much appreciated.
-- Im new to web apps and iphone...
I got it working but there are lots of issues and tweaks you need to do in order for it to fully work.
In my experience PhoneGap Plugins do work but you have to play around a lot. E.g. I know for sure the new Facebook SDK is not supported by the PhoneGap plugin. Even if you import the Deprecated Headers. I had to use the older version of the SDK. And also with version 2.7 not all plugins are supported so I had to stick to an older version 2.5 so I could get my project to work.
Even tough I got this plugin to work on iOS, it doesn't work on Android. It's a really good platform to develop on if you're looking for fast productivity but i'm still a bit spectacle on being heavily dependant on the plugins which are not being maintained continuously.
Hope this helps.
