https://graph.facebook.com/userID/links?access_token=access_token

I only got links I shared it, not my friends or pages, while I need my friends and pages videos

You can use FQL to get the list of all videos as explained in this post. 

SELECT actor_id, created_time, likes, post_id, attachment 
FROM stream 
WHERE filter_key IN ( 
    SELECT filter_key 
    FROM stream_filter 
    WHERE uid = me() AND (name = "Video")
)

stream_filter contains the filters for filtering the stream of posts. This contains several filters that include the lists that the user has built and some default filters like the ones for photos and videos.

if you need the friends videos and above of your quires are not working, then this query you can give a try

https://graph.facebook.com/USER_ID?fields=friends.fields(videos.fields(source,embed_html))

this will return the user's all friends with their videos. Hope it helps if I got your question right.
