Windows Phone 8.1 Lumia Download
We reported yesterday that Facebook had killed off its Windows Phone 8.1 apps, but as per AllAboutWindowsPhone reports, the situation is much worse than that.
Microsoft’s Internet Explorer browser for Windows it turns out, cant handle Facebook’s mobile website, so while you can use the mobile website, much like Twitter, its impossible to actually get much done other than scrolling and posting status updates. You can’t check notifications or messages, nor can you alter settings as those buttons are all unresponsive to the touch.
The folks over at AAWP found a workaround for this that lets you continue using Facebook on the platform, here’s how.
Mobile device management (MDM) in Windows Phone 8.1 is based on the Synchronization Markup Language (SyncML) version 1.2, which is the Open Mobile Alliance Client Provisioning standard for device management. Windows Phone 8.1 builds on this standard to create an integrated MDM client that allows MDM system vendors to manage Windows Phone devices.
