Hello all,
My girlfriend is having issues with her Galaxy Ace regarding Facebook uploading and Sharing. whenever she tries to share anything to facebook, it stays on 0% for around 10 minutes and gives error that it can't be uploaded, the same goes for any app that tries to upload to facebook. I have installed various roms and kernels and the problem still exists. Her account is working as I tried it on my phone and it uploads without any problems so it's not facebook that's causing it. Also I have logged into my account on her Ace and it still has the same error though so i'm quite confused
I have installed and removed various apps and it all gives pretty much the same upload problem, wonder if anyone had the same problem before and can help me with this?
her current rom is Xperiatized V7 and her kernel is [CF-Root-S5830 3.7] B84
many thanks in advanced
Mostly an app problem

Well not sure, but the previous kernel installed with Xperiatized given the same problem? was experimenting to see if it was the kernel that was giving the problem with uploading but the problem still exists lol any help on choosing the best rom or kernel even to fix this weird problem?
This is not an kernel or rom problem. Mostly seems an app or data packet size problem.

really? is there a way to solve it as I don't seem to see anyone with the same issue as my girlfriend? it's a combiniation of apps like the official facebook for android, friendcaster, Instagram is experiencing this and it's been a full wipe and clear before Rom updates even when removing the app to redownload, clear cache, clear data and uninstall before reinstalling a fresh download from Play Store/Market and still the same thing, thanks for you help in this as i've been losing my whits trying to figure this out lol
also, this has been only tested uploading over wifi at the moment as 3g has been giving the same problems as this at the moment
Anyone can help me with this weird problem? i've checked everything on the phone, factory resets everything and still gives that error =[
-Try on wifi, use another ace as wifi router.
-try on different telco ?
-Do you use firewall app like droidwall ?
-maybe tweak script installed, remove it bcause some of them alter tcp/ip parameter.
-Try upload using, whatever browser on your phones. If succes then app problem, if same then rom problem.
-reflash stock rom, if your problem still there, then its time to reconsider to sent to samsung service or buy the new ones whatever brands.
Hi,
I've tried on my wifi router and few others, on my HTC incredible, I can upload no problem using my wifi connection but on my girlfriend's Ace, it either sits at 0% or jumps to 20% and doesn't move till it times out, these are small images only like 450k that i've tried uploading even tried bigger and still the same thing, tried to upload using the the default browser but facebook times out or redirects me to the android app page on google play.
there's no firewall, antivirus or anything like that on it and I haven't installed any tweak apps nor alter any settings other than ringtones and accounts and that's it really
i'm going to flash another rom at the moment to see if it improves the problem or remains the same, a stock rom you say? which one shall I use or where to get it?
many thanks for your help diditdr! =D
update. flash back to a stock ROM and it's working well but the upload problem exists by the gallery share, facebook app and even through the internet browser as well, it's like the phone is unable to upload anything at all? maybe blocked by facebook? not sure! wonder if anyone has input on this at all?
I have the same issue with facebook photos uploading. using Cm fat
you have the same problem as me wiceqq, you can't upload to facebook at all and in your notification area the facebook bit is in bold font and doesn't shift? no matter what app you use to upload it's the same thing?
wonder if anyone there can help us with this problem? it's not very common as I can't find anything about it on the web, anyone an help us?
I do have the same problem... Im just getting that error on 1.8.x version, it works fine on 1.7.x.

really? can't upload through the internet browser either as it times out? would the app be causing that too by any chance?
Bump, does anyone know how to fix this problem at all? I've installed an older facebook app to see if that was the problem but it wasn't. It's still doing the same thing as I've described above in my earlier posts. can anyone help?
Just got my Samsung Galaxy S3 from AT&T. Still have the stock android from AT&T running it (ICS. Version 4.0.4). I choose to use the mobile browser version of facebook as the app itself is very slow and buggy in my previous experience. But whenever I click on likes and comments on a post in facebook to see the details, the browser freezes in android. It says "Internet is not responding. Would you like to close it?". I have cleared all cache, rebooted, cleared all cookies, history etc. But it keeps doing this. Interestingly no other website has given me issues ranging from flash rich sites to simple yahoo mail mobile website. Also I never had this problem with the Galaxy S1, my last phone. To reclarify, there is no problem with facebook on main pages like news feeds or my page. But the freezing occurs when you click on comments or likes icon to see the details.
Can anyone help with above or is anyone else experiencing the same issue?
thanks,
K

Thanks for the response. No I haven't. But I am still puzzled. Why it would just not work fine in my stock android browser?
By the way how did you manage to get the desktop version of facebook running. Everytime I try that, it automatically goes to mobile version.
I will try the Chrome. I suppose I have to install it. Would it create a conflict with the stock android?

I have the exact same problem. I thought it was because I rooted it. I guess an update will fix it eventually. Also, it seems to only be Facebook, so maybe the site is doing it.
Solution
So I finally resolved the problem. I have stopped using the android stock browser and installed the Chrome app. It is working like a charm and no more error messages. I don't miss the stock browser at all and in some ways, Chrome is giving a much better experience.
been trying to get this to work for quit awhile know but failing i just starting using sun_dreams ics 4.0.4 sense 4.1 based one xl hk-run ive used all times of roms and never ran into this. Anybody seen this?
I have this issue also
At the moment another friend and myself are having the same problem, we live in China but we use a VPN that let us use Twitter, youtube and so on.
But during the last 2 weeks we have been getting this problem (I use a Motorola Razr and he has a SIII):
"Sorry, login Failed to reach Facebook servers. Please check your network connection or try again later"
Probably on Facebooks end. That site is plagued with problems on a daily basis. :/
Hey guys, I need some help with the facebook app on my S4.
I'm trying to record some videos and post them on facebook but the app
just sits and hangs half way through the upload process.
If I record in the smallest size then it will upload fine but anything else
just gets stuck.
I've tried waiting for a couple hours but it never moves further.
Anyone else having this issue and found a resolution for it?
Looked through existing threads with no success.
I am having issues posting videos to Instagram. It uploads halfway through and then gives me an error message that it failed to upload. See attached screenshots. I had this same issue on my Nexus 5 Kit Kat. Because my friends with Samsung phones at the time had no issues I decided to switch. I now have a Galaxy S6 but I have the same issue again. Running Lollipop 5.0.2 and rooted with Ping Pong but kept stock ROM.
I tried with stock IG, both the latest version and some older versions. I also tried with modded IG apps such as Instagram+ and OGInsta. I tried uploading video from within the app itself and by uploading from Gallery. Same results. I know the file type is correct because some of the videos I'm trying to upload I downloaded straight from Instagram. File types are MPEG4 and H264. In addition the issues occur on both wifi and data. Rebooting, uninstalling, re-installing nothing helps.
Can anyone assist? Any ideas on what I could try? I'm about to switch to an IPhone if I can't solve it because it's driving me nuts. I still have a week to exchange the phone.
