Android Facebook SDK 4.0 Login without Facebook App

Question

I'm having issues with the webview login for Facebook on Android.

I've followed the tutorials and login works perfectly when the user has the Facebook app installed. When the Facebook app is not installed, the webview for facebook login pops up; however, after logging in and accepting the permissions, the webview simply redirects back to the login screen. It never goes back to my app.

Has anyone else encountered this problem?

    FacebookSdk.sdkInitialize(this);
    profileTracker = new ProfileTracker() {
        @Override
        protected void onCurrentProfileChanged(Profile profile, Profile profile2) {
            if (profile2 != null) {
                loggedIn(profile2);
            } else {
                loggedOut();
            }
        }
    };
    accessTokenTracker = new AccessTokenTracker() {
        @Override
        protected void onCurrentAccessTokenChanged(AccessToken accessToken, AccessToken accessToken2) {
            Profile.fetchProfileForCurrentAccessToken();
        }
    };
    callbackManager = CallbackManager.Factory.create();
    LoginManager.getInstance().registerCallback(callbackManager,
            new FacebookCallback<LoginResult>() {
                @Override
                public void onSuccess(LoginResult loginResult) {
                    // App code
                    getProfileInfo();
                }

                @Override
                public void onCancel() {
                    // App code
                    Log.e("Facebook Login", "Login Cancelled");
                    loggedOut();
                }

                @Override
                public void onError(FacebookException exception) {
                    // App code
                    Log.e("Facebook Login", "Failed to Login " + exception.toString());
                    loggedOut();
                }
            });

Looking at the logs without filters while the login takes place, I see a couple of possibly relevant logs.

I/chromium﹕ [INFO:CONSOLE(0)] "event.returnValue is deprecated. Please use the standard event.preventDefault() instead.", source:  (0)
I/Auth.Core﹕ [TokenCache] Missing snowballing token: no granted scopes set.

Answer 1

What was causing the problem was that I was overriding the onclicklistener of the login button to call the login function of the LoginManager. Just don't.
