多年来,Facebook不断改变您通过手机更新个人资料的方式。过去,您可以将手机连接到您的帐户并通过发送电子邮件至 [email protected] 来上传图片。(Back)
在某些时候,这种情况发生了变化,他们创建了一个邮寄(post-by email)地址,该地址对于每个帐户都是唯一的。使用此电子邮件,您可以更新您的状态,从您的手机发布图片等。然而,随着越来越多的用户转移到Android、iOS、Windows Phone等上的Facebook 应用程序(Facebook app),需要有这种缓慢发布的替代模式减弱。
现在Facebook有一个叫做Facebook Texts的东西,它可以让你更新你的状态并通过短信做一些其他的事情。他们已经完全删除了邮寄地址,这意味着您不能再通过(email address)电子邮件或短信(email or text)从您的手机发送照片。
在我看来,这不是必要的举动。在美国,大多数人可能会使用带有数据计划的智能手机,但在其他国家/地区仍有数百万人仍在使用哑机。截至目前,除了通过短信(SMS)更新状态外,您还可以添加朋友、戳某人、点赞页面、在朋友发布内容时获取文本以及获取一次性密码。这是下面的完整列表。
如何设置 Facebook 文本
要设置Facebook 文本(Facebook Texts),请登录您的Facebook 帐户(Facebook account),单击右上角的小向下箭头,然后单击设置(Settings)。
在左侧,单击移动(Mobile),如果您添加了一个,您应该会看到列出的当前电话号码。(phone number)
如果您没有启用短信,您应该会在您的号码下方看到一个很大的“激活短信(Activate Text Messaging)”按钮。单击(Click)它,将弹出一个窗口,您必须首先选择您的国家和移动运营商。
请注意,Facebook 文本(Facebook Texts)仅适用于受支持运营商的某些国家和地区。但是,它们支持世界上大多数地方,所以除非你住在偏僻的地方,否则你应该可以使用Facebook 文本(Facebook Texts)。单击(Click) 下一步(Next),系统会要求您将字母 F 发送到特定号码。然后,您将输入通过SMS发送到您手机的确认码(confirmation code)。
您还可以选择与朋友分享您的电话号码(phone number),并允许朋友从Facebook给您发短信。在这一点上,你应该很高兴。
现在,您会在号码旁边看到已激活文本,并且您会在底部看到几个新选项,例如(Text Activated)Facebook 消息(Facebook Messages)、每日文本限制(Daily Text Limit)和一天中的时间(Time of Day)。
默认情况下,每当有人在(someone send)Facebook 上(Facebook)向您发送消息时,您都会收到一条短信。您只会在上午 8 点到晚上 11 点收到短信,但您可以根据需要编辑任何设置。
要通过短信发布状态更新,只需正常输入您的消息,然后将其发送到您在上面激活Facebook 文本时由(Facebook Texts)Facebook提供的相同号码。
您将不会收到任何类型的确认消息(confirmation message),因此您只需检查您的Facebook 个人资料(Facebook profile)即可查看您的状态是否已更新。
不错(Nice),成功了!您可能会在网上阅读其他一些关于能够通过启用主题行、将单词照片(photos)作为主题并将图片添加到正文中来通过文本发布图片的帖子,但这不再适用了。我自己尝试过,但没有运气。
我喜欢Facebook Texts(Facebook Texts)而不是在我的 iPhone 上实际使用该应用程序的一个原因是能够通过数字快速添加朋友。通常当我遇到一个新人时,我得到的第一件事就是他或她的 电话号码(phone number)。您所要做的就是在他们的号码前发送一条带有“ ADD ”字样的文字,将他们添加为朋友。
ADD 123-456-7890
这超级简单,实际上比去应用程序和搜索人要快得多。由于Facebook 上(Facebook)有这么多人,搜索通常会返回数百个结果,这很烦人。当您有电话号码(phone number)时,您就知道无论如何您都在添加正确的人。
此外,如果您是Facebook 跟踪者(Facebook stalker),那么Facebook 文本(Facebook Texts)将让您实时跟踪某人。您可以通过发送SUB后跟电话号码(phone number)、电子邮件或人名来通过文本订阅。每当该人更新其状态时,您都会收到即时文本通知(text notification)。
尽管Facebook已经取消了通过文本和电子邮件(text and email)发布照片的功能,但如果有足够多的人抱怨,他们可能会在以后将其添加回来。如果他们这样做,我会确保更新这篇文章并告诉你如何去做。如果您还有其他问题,请随时发表评论。享受!
Update Facebook Status From a Dumbphone using Facebook Texts
Оver thе years, Facebook has constantly changed the way you сan update your profile from your phone. Baсk in the days, yоu could connect your mobile phone to your account and upload pictures by sending an email to [email protected].
At some point, this changed and they created a post-by email address, which was unique for each account. Using this email, you could update your status, post pictures from your phone, etc. However, as more and more users moved to the Facebook app on Android, iOS, Windows Phone, etc, the need to have this alternate mode of posting slowly waned.
Now Facebook has something called Facebook Texts, which lets you update your status and do a couple of other things over text message. They have completely removed the post-by email address, which means you can’t send photos from your mobile phone anymore via email or text.
In my opinion, this was not a necessary move. In the U.S., most people might be using smartphones with data plans, but there are millions of people in other countries that still use dumbphones. As of now, other than updating your status via SMS, you can add a friend, poke someone, like a page, get a text when a friend posts something, and get a one-time password. Here is the full list below.
How to Setup Facebook Texts
To setup Facebook Texts, log into your Facebook account, click on the little down arrow at the top right and then click on Settings.
On the left hand side, click on Mobile and you should see your current phone number listed if you have added one.
If you don’t have text messaging enabled, you should see a big Activate Text Messaging button below your number. Click on that and a window will popup where you have to first select your country and mobile carrier.
Note that Facebook Texts will only work in certain countries and regions on supported carriers. However, they support most places in the world, so unless you live in the middle of nowhere, you should be able to use Facebook Texts. Click Next and you’ll be asked to send the letter F to a specific number. You will then enter the confirmation code sent to your phone via SMS.
You’ll also have the option to share your phone number with friends and allow friends to text you from Facebook. At this point, you should be good to go.
Now you’ll see Text Activated next to your number and you’ll see a couple of new options down at the bottom like Facebook Messages, Daily Text Limit and Time of Day.
By default, you’ll get a text whenever someone send you a message on Facebook. You’ll only get texts from 8 AM to 11 PM, but you can edit any of the settings to your desire.
To post a status update via text message, just type your message normally and send it to the same number given by Facebook when you activated Facebook Texts above.
You won’t get any kind of confirmation message back, so you’ll simply have to check your Facebook profile to see if your status got updated.
Nice, it worked! You may read some other posts online about being able to post pictures via text by enabling the subject line, putting the word photos as the subject and adding the picture in the body, but this doesn’t work anymore. I tried it myself with no luck.
The one reason why I like Facebook Texts over actually using the app on my iPhone is having the ability to add a friend quickly by number. Usually when I meet someone new, the first thing I get is his or her phone number. All you have to do is send a text with the word ADD in front of their number to add them as a friend.
ADD 123-456-7890
That’s super easy and actually a lot faster than going to the app and searching for the person. Since there are so many people on Facebook, the search will normally return hundreds of results, which is annoying. When you have a phone number, you know you are adding the right person no matter what.
Also, if you are a Facebook stalker, then Facebook Texts will let you stalk someone in real-time. You can subscribe via text by sending SUB followed by the phone number, email, or name of the person. Whenever that person updates their status, you will get an instant text notification.
Even though Facebook has removed the ability to post photos via text and email, they may add it back at a later point if enough people complain. If they do, I’ll make sure to update this post and tell you how to do it. If you have any other questions, feel free to post a comment. Enjoy!
