Here is my code for Facebook like button

LikeView likeView = (LikeView) findViewById(R.id.likeView);
likeView.setLikeViewStyle(LikeView.Style.STANDARD);      
likeView.setAuxiliaryViewPosition(LikeView.AuxiliaryViewPosition.INLINE);
likeView.setObjectIdAndType(
    "http://inthecheesefactory.com/blog/understand-android-activity-
     launchmode/en",
      LikeView.ObjectType.OPEN_GRAPH)

This is code for like button in xml file.

<com.facebook.share.widget.LikeView
                android:id="@+id/likeView"
                android:layout_width="wrap_content"
                android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                android:layout_marginTop="10dp"/>

How can I solve it

Answer 1

Try this:

btnLike = (LikeView) findViewById(R.id.btnLike);
btnLike.setObjectIdAndType("https://www.facebook.com/androidlift", LikeView.ObjectType.PAGE);

Answer 2

Try to change

likeView.setObjectIdAndType(
"http://inthecheesefactory.com/blog/understand-android-activity-
 launchmode/en",
  LikeView.ObjectType.OPEN_GRAPH)

with

likeView.setObjectIdAndType(
"http://inthecheesefactory.com/blog/understand-android-activity-
 launchmode/en",
  LikeView.ObjectType.PAGE

)
