facebook android api getUsername returns null

Question

I am trying to get person's user name with facebook graph user object. It gives firstname, lastname and other details correctly but gives null when I call getUserName().

public void onCompleted(GraphUser user, Response response) {
              if (user != null) {

                //facebook authentication done.
                //Disable login button

                Log.d("From FB", user.getFirstName());
                Log.d("From FB", user.getLastName());
                Log.d("From FB", user.getId());
                Log.d("From FB", user.getProperty("email").toString());
                Log.d("From FB", user.getUsername());//gives null

Is there any other way to get the person's userName? Please let me know how to get person's user name.

thanks

I am bit afraid of making changes in the code now, is there any way in graph 2.x api to get profile pic — codeomnitrix, Nov 01 '14 at 13:12
You can use id to generate userpage link. `'https://www.facebook.com/' + user.getId()`. Does it works for you? — doubleui, Nov 01 '14 at 13:20

The username field is no longer available with the Graph API v2.0. Refer
