Starting Facebook App

[cbanks]

The following code works to start the Facebook app, but I want to start the Facebook app AND and have it go to a certain page (LDS Scriptures Premium | Facebook). What modification to the code below would need to be done to accomplish this? Thanks.

Dim pm As PackageManager
Dim in As Intent
in = pm.GetApplicationIntent("com.facebook.katana")
StartActivity(in)

This post goes into quite a lot of depth: android - launch facebook app from other app - Stack Overflow

For your specific case:

Dim in As Intent
in.Initialize(in.ACTION_VIEW,"fb://page/280396775373599")
StartActivity(in)

Hi,

change the url from

to

https://graph.facebook.com/TheBigBangTheory

You will see this:

But none of that genius helps them interact with people, especially women. \n\nAll this begins to change when a free-spirited beauty named Penny moves in next door. Sheldon, Leonard's roommate, is quite content spending his nights playing Klingon Boggle with their socially dysfunctional friends, fellow CalTech scientists Wolowitz and Koothrappali. However, Leonard sees in Penny a whole new universe of possibilities... including love. ",
