Hey all,
I don't know if any of you have encountered this problem yet but I decided to download the Facebook for Windows Mobile App from the Marketplace and I logged in and everything worked fine untill I opened the app up later on to find it will not update, I tried on WIFI and 3G etc Nothing happens it starts to refresh (eg the rotating loading icon appeared) and then stops and it doesn't actually refresh.
Is there a way to go back to the original app? or is it all around better to use the Opera web version?
Thanks very much for your time!

I'm running Dutty CDLC v15 and it's only started happening since yesterday. Maybe something wrong with Facebook? It works if you log out and log back in again though.
I uninstalled and reinstalled to see if it would work and it did, didn't think to try logging out to be honest ha-ha I think it may have something to do with the program. I will try and see what either Facebook or Microsoft says and hope they make a new update that actually works.
Thanks for the reply =]
Facebook itself is having problems. Been reading all over Twitter, people saying Facebook is down. Don't know how the site is,but the app definitely isn't working for me.
I posted about this over in general, was told the same thing, logging in and out seems to work but you have to log in and out every time you want to update.....
its a facebook side error though that's the bottom line......

HMM .. I found a different facebook APP called XDA FACEBOOK .. it doesnt do all the things the regular facebook app does and doesnt show photos yet but it DOES refresh so I wonder whats going on...
hmmm that weird.... maybe the fb app has gone the same way as the myspace app...... right down the plughole......
Same thing's happened to me. Anyone got a reason as to why? Or is it just related to the facebook crash?
I did a hard reset and installed FB first...Refresh works...after SPB backup (Restore)...didn´t Refresh...i guess it´s no FB and no Marketplace problem...
Here´s the solution...
Delete the "Facebook" and "FacebookInfo" files in the main dir of your mobile...start Facebook, login again...and it works...

only seems to work once.
then it's back to the 'no refresh' issue
Experiencing the same issue here, looking forward to a solution for this one.
Yeah I have not been able to get facebook to connect on my HD2 for a week now. I can still upload photos to facebook via the uploader, just cant update the app info... anyone know and app that works lol
....same here no updates possible since few days :-(
can anyone confirm if this advice is of any help?...
have you ever changed your facebook email address? check that the contact address in account settings matches your new email. i found that though i could login with my new email the old email address was still showing as contact address. i also reinstalled the facebook app so could also have been that which started it working again for me.
In my case I'm having problems logging in.
Regardless if I tick the "remember settings" square it keeps asking me to re-login with all of my credentials even after I hadn't shut off the phone... which didn't happen when I had the old Facebook Mobile version...

Hi, I'm the developer of the XDAFacebook app, and I can say that yes FB was down last week. The reason my app still worked was because the error that was breaking everyone had an easy work-around and I was able to release an update that worked.
I would say if you are not happy with the Microsoft app, please check mine out. It is still in early beta stages but will quickly become a full mobile client. Any feedback would be wonderful!
here is the link to the dev thread:

+1 same problem
I don't think we'll EVER see a fix. This app was developed by MS & not facebook, like on Android or Apple. So I think it's safe to say MS has abandoned it in favor of their WP7 facebook app.
I've been using joe coolish's xda facebook app. It works great, just doesn't have all the bells & whistles yet, but will.
Other than that I do use tweetdeck & the facebook app when I switch over to android, both of those are good, especially tweetdeck, you can update twitter, facebook, foursqaure & more all at once.
I can't for the life of me figure out how to get the chrome widget to show thumbnails. I only have maybe 1 or two out of 30 or so. I've tried visiting all the sites, putting them under mobile bookmarks, logging in all the websites, visiting the websites on the stock browser, restarting my launcher/phone.....nothing.
Can anyone help.

its a google chrome bug google has to update chrome for android and fix that themselves. if you try firefox the bookmark thumbnails show. Or you can try this only view pages in mobile browser instead of full version websites if applicable. For some reason thumbnails show up if view via mobile version of websites in chrome.
When I take a scrolling screenshot inside facebook messenger the youtube app opens for no reason and the scrolling screenshot wants to take youtube s.shot instead of the messenger's.
This however only happens with messenger. Taking s.shots with chrome, or viber works fine.
Apart from restarting the phone I also tried to turn chat heads on/off, and I tried disabling youtube app to only get an error upon drawing the "S" in the messenger, that yt app is not there. Kinda frustrating as I at times take s.shots in messenger.
This is on mate 10 pro.. .129
Hello All,
This is a most recent phenomenon. I used to send LinkedIn Articles and links to photos to friends the following way, that worked perfectly until a couple of days ago.
So I open the article or post on LinkedIn. Right Click on the three vertical dots in the top right corner. Select "Share via", which brings up Huawei Share. Now I used to be able to select Messenger, where the list of my contacts showed up, clicked on the send button beside their name, and the link was sent through Messenger. Not anymore! I can send the links through Gmail, Mail, etc, except Messenger. I have tried the same thing on two Mate 20 Pros, on two different continents, same issue for about a week now.
EMUI 10.0.0.191, LinkedIn version 4.1.425, Messenger version 255.0.0.14.126.
Since one of the above mentioned two phones don't have LinkedIn app installed, but the same issue happens with attempting forwarding photos, etc, to Messenger, I suspect the issue is with either the Messenger App, or the Huawei Share.
Any idea how can I fix it? Thanks in advance!
UPDATE:
It turned out the issue was widespread on all Androids, so it was not Huawei specific. It has been resolved by Messenger update to 256.2.0.23.117

Hello everybody,
For a long time I'm looking for an alternative for my Dolphin browser as it is whether safe nor up to date...
I would like to have a browser with bookmarks which are organized by folders and subfolders which in turn also can be alphabetically sorted (latter point is not a must but nice to have).
I do not like Firefox, because bookmarks can only be imported by syncing via account and third party.
Anyone knows a good browser meeting these criteria? Please let me know....would be fine to kick Dolphin off my device...
Thx in advance!
No one there who had the same experience so far - and found a pleasing solution?
