I have in my app a FB AuthButton that is doing the connection to FB process
I have a device that is running an old version of the FB app (version 1.8.3 - 1.8.4).
when I click on the login button, the process doesn't start the native app, but calls the browser to finish the process.
In the logs, I see those logs:
06-16 12:26:00.709: E/ActivityThread(21597): Failed to find provider info for com.facebook.katana.provider.AttributionIdProvider
06-16 12:26:03.321: E/Tab(21678): onReceivedError -10 fbconnect://success#access_token=MY_TOKEN&expires_in=5170432 The protocol is not supported.
and on the screen, the browser shows this screenshot:
any thoughts on how to fix this or ridirect back to my app?
We've found that Facebook version 1.9.8+ works, which is version code version code 40477+.
As we are using the deprecated Facebook.java class, we modified validateAppSignatureForPackage(). It seems to work for all versions of the facebook app now.
private boolean validateAppSignatureForPackage(Context context, String packageName)
{
PackageInfo packageInfo;
try
{
packageInfo = context.getPackageManager().getPackageInfo(packageName,
PackageManager.GET_SIGNATURES);
if(packageInfo.versionCode<40477)
{
Log.i("validateAppSignatureForPackage",
"Your facebook app version is prior to 1.9.8. Update your facebook app");
return false;
}
}
catch (NameNotFoundException e)
{
Log.i("validateAppSignatureForPackage", e.getMessage());
return false;
}
catch(Exception e)
{
Log.i("validateAppSignatureForPackage", e.getMessage());
return false;
}
for (Signature signature : packageInfo.signatures) {
if (signature.toCharsString().equals(FB_APP_SIGNATURE)) {
return true;
}
}
return false;
}
If you want to test this yourself, you can find previous versions of the facebook app here: http://www.androiddrawer.com/2274/download-facebook-for-android-1-9-7-app-apk/#.Uctn6Zwaux4
