[APP] FBMetro, a Mini Facebook App - Windows 8 Development and Hacking

Currently I am building and shortly will be done with my Facebook Metro App for Windows 8 and the idea is to have 2 UI's.
1). Full Screen w/Most Features.
2). Half-Sized w/Basic features so you can use your favorite App's while still accessing your Facebook features, feed and etc.
Question is, what would YOU want added to either UI?

Well u should post some pictures of the program so we can see what it has and hasnt so we can give you opinions When its really upload it and i will test it for sure

After or on Tuesday, I can share the design as I am scheduled with a MS Engineer to help my App have the final touches and tested as well and hopefully first Facebook App in the Store.
Also thanks for responding.

Feature request
Please implement off line messages because the Messaging app won't let you send them

Looking forward to FBMetro! (Suggestion to call it MetroBook instead! )
Do half-sized mean Snapped mode?

Offline messages? As in check for personal messages and grab them and save them for no-connection viewing and respond while offline and when/if connection available automatically send?

Well FBMetro is really just the project name, Facebook already has an App registered as Facebook Metro.
The half-sized mode is in fact the snapped mode... I have included old-SS of which the actual App does not represent anymore as of my meeting with my Microsoft sponsor who wouldn't permit me to go any further with the design, even though I was nowhere near done lol.
Note: Job Discovery is my other App for Win8 and is actually currently a free WP7 App. In the photo you can see that my Facebook App can be used by other Developers to post information from their App using my pre-established Auth to the end-users Facebook Account. Yes, they can actually implement my App to be used by theirs.

nice, where can I get it?

It's coming, very soon!

and here is my idea....
as you may know in our country (iran) we can't access FACE.BOOK...we have to use v.p.n and other pro.xy apps...
it'll be gr8 if you add setting to your app so that we can add pro.xy and these kind of things...(especially pro.xy...)
thanks...

Legally? Probably not... How he/she or anyone obtains it? Well, as long as they obtain it is all I care about :].

By default, it is installed with Windows 8. There ARE bypasses that will be released though... :fingers-crossed:

Indeed true, I keep figuring out hacks for Windows 8, just released a how to video... World of opportunities lol.

question
hy. I just want to know, when it will be available? could we download it from windows store? I'm a really big METRO UI fan, and I would be happy if I can use facebook in this way.
and of course sorry for my bed english

Cool App!!

I am actually working with someone from Microsoft to get the App Certified, I had to really redo A LOT of the UI as they have made the standards really rough.
Right when it's ready, I will immediately provide the link.
Thanks for your interest!

If I wrote a program and wanted to know about the take up I'd probably have a subscription page, also there maybe a backend-database their end used by the app in which case you subsription would be used to log in to it
just my thoughts

Workout software for windows mobile?

Hi there,
I had a discussion with my brother on his new iphone and he showed me a software to keep track of his sit up, push up, .... and what ever sessions. It would use the gsensor to count and also check the angle of the situps and correct if necessary.
Now it annoyed me I don't have anything like that on my HD2. Is there anything similar somewhere?
Thanks
Michael
What is the name of that specific app with the gsensor count?
I wish there were some decent work out loggers for us winmo gym guys.

had seen this already, however if I understand it correctly this is just a tracker where I can enter manually. I would like an app where I can "wear" my mobile and the app tracks push ups and situps automatically.
that app would great... i honestly envy iphone users for this kind of practical apps. on the other hand, there is a nice app (not exactly what you want) that you might to take a look at: MyPersonalDiet from VidaOne. Hope it helps.

File Explorer Demoed For Windows Phone 7, Coming Soon

this is interesting, so does this mean we will be able to download mp3s and such through the web browser and access them using this like we can on windows mobile?
i doubt. it appears to just be an app, so unless it's homebrewed to use interop to do it in which case i don't see it getting into the market place.

if you read his web site you will see that it is only for homebrew , and that is the best that can happen for a file explorer

I really hope that schaps either releases the source code, or doesn't obfuscate it so other developers can make use of this.
yea likewise. though based on readings, i believe he's just calling HTC's interop service to pull the file listings that way.

[APP] packet sniffing

ive removed this thread, xda did not ask me to do this, i am doing it on my own, because i no longer wish to make this app public, thank you for your understanding
so this app will connect me to a secured wifi point without entering a password ?
no, lets say youre at school, and you along with everyone else at your school is connected to the schools wifi, you turn on this app, and it will tell you all of the facebook users, amazon users, youtube users ect.. for example it will say facebook: John Dow, Will Smith, Papa Smurf, and so on, with a list of users. just click one of those users, and youre now logged in to their facebook, you can change their status, account info, upload a picture, or snoop through pictures. if youre on youtube, upload a video, change favorites, anything youd do on youtube normally.. if youre on amazon, buy them a flat screen, or some pokemon cards (what ever people use amazon for anyways..) whatever.. get it?

Always connect to those sites using SSL. (use HTTPS in front). Most big websites such as twitter or facebook have an option in your account settings to force use HTTPS and stop storing non-SSL cookies. (but you need to delete current one)
This tool kind of made such attacks slightly more mainstream, although they've been there since ip. http://codebutler.github.com/firesheep/
This is legit. It's been posted over at Engadget.
It is probably completly illegal though

Well sorry guys...
This is just a small app for fun...
When you start the app you see little cats walking around the screen and when you whistle to the cats they turn around and look at you for a moment...
That's all!
I've tried a lot to accomplish the whistle detection through the microphone...
For those who tried to download the app, you will have to tell me the email that is connected to your Zune account so i can add you to the beta testers list and then you will be able to download the app. Else you get an error or something....
PM me your email or reply with it here and i will add you immediately!
Thank you all in advance

Nice little application. My cat must think I'm crazy since I'm whistling at my phone. Both live cat and app cats respond.
There's a clicking noise on the sound and I think the sound is a bit scary, if you had kids entertainment in mind. I expected to see a ghost after hearing the sound, to be honest. Hehe. Nice work though. ;-)
