Opening facebook app on specified profile page

Question

I\'m trying to use some code from SO but it fails:

Those are uri\'s supposed to open the right section of the app.

facebook://facebook.com/info?user=         


        

Answer 1

Is this not easier? For example within an onClickListener?

try { 
    Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse("fb://profile/426253597411506"));
    startActivity(intent);
} catch(Exception e) {
    startActivity(new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse("http://www.facebook.com/appetizerandroid")));    
}   

PS. Get your id (the large number) from http://graph.facebook.com/[userName]
