Hey guys!

I'm wondering how to get FB integration like one of Jolla's demo video demostrated.
Something like displaying and replying FB feeds in Event view without entering browser.
I have set my FB account on the phone, but it doesn't show my FB feeds.
The only thing on my event view is this.

Thanks.

It hasnīt been implemented yet. Probably one of the features they cut before the launch to get the phone more stable The phone had the same features at launch as it had three monts before it, the rest are waiting for more testing.
This is one of the features Iīm really looking forward to, I liked the feed screen on my N9.

Well, this is really sad. It was one of the reason I bought Jolla.

According to Twitter from jolla there may be another bug fix this year with new features coming in quarter one next year.

Well feature was implemented and working nicely, but currently its commented out in the qml files.. but please don't ask why :)

Hopefully we will be able to re-enable the feature at some point.

Are QML files accessible or in QRC?

Well, that is truly sad. Maybe, you should go for BB10 handset instead?

Is the situation with Twitter client/plugin the same? It would be nice if one can get from notification screen to a native integrated application in one touch/swpie :)

I hope it's not Facebook's fault! :eek:
This feature was one of the reasons why I bought Jolla too, and I would very much like to see it enabled when my device arrives :)

No, the twitter client is native. Nicely done too.

@beylow, @243kof
So, you, guys, bought the Jolla phone with the hope of having a fucbook feed in it? :(
Personally, I had not completed my pre-order before 2nd December because I wanted to see the efforts spent towards some seriously must have stuff, instead of a ridiculously pumped up social crap. I know, a random Joe will most probably use the jPhone as he uses his current "smartphone", eg. watsapp, fucbook, twiter, yutube, very rare browsing, some map search and NOTHING more. So, from this point of view, Jolla might primarily need to fulfil those "smart" requests from "smartphone" users, but it is NOT a device for the masses. There wouldn't be a single thread dedicated to this phone on TMO, if it was for the masses. Thus, Jolla and sailfish devs must draw their attention to things that really matter (I won't start a list, because it's gonna be quite long).
I ask myself, why would anyone stay on 24/7 fucbook/twiter/watsap alert?

Actually I am not big on Facebook and social neteorking in general, but I thought this would be nice to have as it seemed well done. And I thought that maybe other services would be supported too, like diaspora or pump.io, which for me mean giving social networks a second chance :)
Terminal is another reason why I bought Jolla;) A friend of mine had N900 and I envied him! But I'm afraid I have to disagre"e with you - jolla IS meant to be (also) for the masses - it needs to be and I think they (Jolla) want it to be. That's why they need to have this kind of integration, if they want to succeed commercially. Personally I like the 'best of both worlds' approach they seem to have taken.

This is a related TJC question (https://together.jolla.com/question/590/show-facebook-feed-in-notifications-instead-of-opening-a-browser/).

It was closed after a summer update when facebook notifications were implemented in events view but was reopened, because we want the facebook feed! :D

What the ...? BB10 doesn't even have a social feed so I don't see how that would help the OP? It has a native FB app but so has SailfishOS (it's called 'Friends' in Jolla Store/Warehouse).
