  • Hi I implemented FacebookFriendPicker but for some reason it gives me only my friends that have the same app installed (app I implemented FB SDK in). Is it possible to make it a list with all my friends? The thing is I need to choose which friends to invite to join my app – rosu alin Jul 04 '14 at 15:29

Try this :

Bundle params = new Bundle();
    params.putString("fields", "name, picture");
    JSONObject jsonFrends = Util.parseJson(facebook.request("me/friends", params));

I could not find a way to do it in Friend Picker sample program. Simply I used graph api to get friends list and listed in list view with a checkbox next to friend's name.

And I added a button that checks all the friends. When I press the button it will iterate over all the friends and checks them.

The idea is pretty simple.

I can't post my code.

I hope you can get some sample programs to get it done.

Ask me if you need more help.

Try out this way : 

  Intent m_fb=getOpenFacebookIntent(m_context);             
    startActivity(m_fb);

Method getOpenFacebookIntent() is as below: 

 public static Intent getOpenFacebookIntent(Context context) {
       try {
        context.getPackageManager().getPackageInfo("com.facebook.katana", 0);
    return new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse("fb://profile/<userid>/fans"));
          } catch (Exception e) {
       return new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse("https://www.facebook.com/abc.xyz"));
       }
    }

You can use Official Facebook App with Intent listed HERE.

  • Have you ever run the FriendPicker sample program in Facebook sdk. – Gugan Jan 11 '13 at 05:22
  • Yes i have also tried to FriendsPicker using facebook sdk also. – GrIsHu Jan 11 '13 at 05:23
  • I want to 'select all the friends' (check all the friends) in a single click in that FriendPicker project. – Gugan Jan 11 '13 at 06:56

    You need to create your custom listview layout and in that you need to inflate the list of friends which you get and manage the selection on the checkbox click. You can achieve it using Facebook SDK effectively. – GrIsHu Jan 11 '13 at 06:58
