Help Launcher Pro/ Facebook Widget

[snoprosledneck]

So I switched from Sense to launcher pro for a few days and started taking a liking to it. Did a few custom things like changed my dock bar, few custom icons, blah blah blah. I did like friend stream on Sense and realized i couldnt get it on launcher pro unless you paid for the full version "launcher pro plus" or something like that. Any Who i talked myself into it for the calender Widget they offer and for the facebook "friend stream look alike" widget. I made the purchase and had a successful unlock. I went to my open page and put my calender into use and slid on over to my other open screen where i wanted to put my facebook widget. I open the widget and it shows up with a blank screen. It says "go to prefferances go to lp widgets, select facebook, go to facebook log in, enter correct info, and tada" (in a nutshell not word for word) so i put in my informantion it shows a loading screen, and once the loading screen goes away it shows a empty log in screen again.... so i put in the info again and the samething happens! I have tried this alot and cant figure it out so if someone could help i would appreciate it. BTW i sent a email to the DEV and havent gotten a reply. Thanks for your help!

thinking back, i'm sure i had this issue too. try this:

remove the widget
sign in again
add the widget

not sure exactly what i did, but i was just messing around adding, re-adding and it eventually worked.

Hmmm ok i tried that and it didnt work either. I even uninstalled it and re installed it and unlocked it again (had the code obviously) and it still didnt work. I messed with it for quite sometime and still havent been able to get it to work and didnt know if i was missing something or if someone knew a trick to make it work the first time every time. IDK

This is going to sound like a stupid suggestion, but have you tried clicking on the 3 buttons on the top left corner of the widget? I've found that the widgets tend to load with something other than the main "friend stream" window showing. Since I am more of a lurker on twitter and facebook that active participant, these other windows are often blank. Good luck with this - these widgets are really cool, so I hope they work for you!

 

[snoprosledneck]

yeah i have. Still doesnt work. Idk what to do with it cuz now im out of the money too

Ok i figured it out. For some reason i had to enter my information and log in using wifi! lol wtf. anyways i got it working and that makes me a happy camper. its about time! Hope this helps anyone else that was having this problem.

Thank you so much for the tip! It has been driving me crazy but the wifi trick worked like a charm. Thanks again!
