Thank you very much. It would be nice to see google+ make up some ground on fb.
This is the 1.0.2 version, not 1.0.7
Ya I don't see anything new. I still have 1.02 after install.

In the market it looks like there is video chat. Is this working for us or not.

From what I saw, no. I didn't see the option for video chat or anything, just send a pic. It's weird.

One of my friends told me that you can't make them but you can join video chats in progress. The I can't confirm that's its true since I'm not old enough to make a google + account -_-.
In the descriptions on the market page it says u can do hangouts using video. Guess it is only on a couple of devices at the moment. Maybe it will be updated for us soon.

Here is some videos I found that sorta explain how to join Hangouts (video chat). It kinda sucks that you need someone that has a computer but Facebook cant do mobile video chat . Im curious to see how sprints 3g could handle video chat since its been poor around my area.

Do you have "Enable Always-On Mobile Data" checked in Settings > Wireless and Networks > Mobile Networks? Google+ uses the Google Push system. When you disable that setting, the only data that syncs are ones you can set to "poll" at a specific frequency.
If that isn't it, try wiping Google+ data in manage applications then see if it works. This has cured all of my Google+ sync issues. Lastly, try uninstalling it completely and reinstalling it.

I tried doing that the first time I had the problem and it didn't fix it. I'll try again just to be sure but I doubt it'll work.

This isn't evo3d specific, but the facebook app really sucks. Is it just licensing that keeps someone from making a better one? I would pay for a FULLY FUNCTIONAL facebook app - something that lets me do everything I can do on the site. and I would like it to have total control over what I have to see in my newsfeed, because I don't care about farmville.
I just want push notifications on my EVO like my wife has on her epic

I use friendcaster Pro, it has push notifications or can use emails like Blackberry
Facebook for iOS is virtually identical and also has issues.
Good call on friendcaster. Way better!
idk if you remember the early facebook app that was out when the Evo first came out a year ago... It was HORRIBLE compared to what we have today, so if anything, we're doing alright compared to that. And that's saying something.
But I agree, I hate having to go to the site to reply to invites to events and whatnot, gets old real quick. I also wish that gawker sites wouldn't go to the mobile site in the stock browser, it won't let you watch any flash videos, and won't let you switch to desktop version of the site. /endrant
Yeah and I will also like to change my profile pic from the app, because even if you go to the site from your phone (in desktop version) it doesn't let you do it cause of the cropping of the pic which is impossible from the phone.

Stock FB app?? I have been freaking out cuz if there is a stock FB app on my 3D Evo...I cant find it!! Wtf?? Where is it?? Or why do you have it and I don't?? Anyway someone can upload the stock apk for me, please?

This time it didn't come pre installed as it was on the 4G, you have to go to the market and download it.
Yeah yeah, its a shooter and I'm not afraid to use it...

After the update, you need to log out and then log back in for changes to take full effect. I prefer to uninstall completely then install the updated version, it avoids the bugs.
Once you've done that, it will no longer ping GPS when viewing the news feed

A lot of Android apps love to keep tabs on you and are constantly gathering location, personal, or contact data info. That's why I use LBE Privacy guard app, it allows you to deny permissions that go along with downloaded apps

They are trying to make it closer to the iOS version (pull to refresh...etc). And the iOS Facebook app pings the GPS every time it refreshes the news feed. Not totally sure why.

Hopefully the ''damage'' can be corrected easily. Just to uninstall the application. But..this issue is very strange. What is the relation between the application and the widget people ... ah...HTC
Not possible to set a comment as "public".
same problem here on sense rom.. as soon as its installed contacs app crashes FC's everytime i try to open it. uninstall google+ and its fine again.. weird bug.
Same problem here contacts fc everytime I install it once its uninstalled all is back to normal

Same here

Another one for the bug list lol:
If a friend posts a picture in "Chord" (they should have just stuck with huddle lol) it says you need to update the app to see the picture
Widget?
Works fine for me. I had noticed that there is no widget for this new G+ app.

And I know why!!! Just looking, I had Version 1.8.1. After I deleted and went to reinstall, the version on the market is "Depends on Device!" So instead of investing some $$$$ in the masses, they are doing one off's as they get to it. Meaning they likely fix a bug for one device and break another!

Ditto. You have to have your Facebook contacts viewable in the people app, then it will suggest links, or you can link them manually. Once linked, contact pics are synced.
it won't even sync fb contacts with 3rd party msg apps anymore!

My phone is not rooted, so the above link will not work. Syncmypic does not work either. I am unable to manually link in people because the phone is registering that the person is on facebook already and although the paperclip is not linked, once I click on it, it takes me to OTHER people to link to and the person disappears from the list. My pics will not link to gosms at all. Please advise! Thank you.
the initial sync works fine..But facebook doesn't seem to update on its own..so im only seeing updates and contact photos from the initial sync.
Interesting
