[Q] Facebook App? - Vibrant Themes and Apps

Alright...so I just downloaded the Facebook App for my phone, and when I attempt to upload a new status message, the app just force closes itself. I want to know if anyone else is experiencing this and if there is a fix for this?
I am not sure if this makes a difference, but I am currently running on Slim ICS.

Facebook has been...and probably will be the single most hated app ever created that everyone has.
Every single version made never works right.
I've actually sat my phone on to of my router...with all other processes off......and still took 4min to even open the app

Yeah, I am starting to hate it myself now, however, mines does not load that slow. My only problem is I cannot post status updates..and I don't feel like using a web browser to log on and do it.

Friend of mine using samsung 7plus on stock rom also having the same problem..still cannot resolve...if u dont mind..u can use other facebook apps..such as friendcaster..

i strongly suggest this. its not perfect, but i would say its the best facebook app out there. def better than the default. one major feature that makes it stand out is PUSH notifications for EVERYTHING...not just messages, friend requests, etc.

I'll try it out and see if it would work for me. If not, then I guess I am stuck using the web browser method.

Haha, but mines does not work at all ever since all the updates. Has been really annoying having to log on to FB using a web browser (I use Chrome Beta or Dolphin. Either works for me) and having to update my status like that. Mines does not FC, but only when trying to update my status. Otherwise, I can basically do everything else, just cannot write a new status update.

It seems to work perfect in diferent roms. I been using euphoria for a few days and it works like a charm

Mine makes my battery its biznitch. I'm talking like losing 8% in about 2 minutes. I just don't use it. Twitter on the other hand...

Yeah, I know what you mean about the battery thing. That's why I just stopped using it, and from one of the suggestions on top, used Friendcaster up until when I deactivated my account about 5 days ago. I agree with that person that it is not perfect, but at least it gets the job done.

CM7 Emails issues.

Just flashed CM7, previously using Alien. Seems like the email.apk in CM7 is the old version or something, not the same released in OTA or Alien, i have downloaded some apks with no luck.
Can someone point me to the apk that was included in the last OTA update? Forced to go back to touchdown... man i hate entering the ping to access my corporate emails.
Thanks,
Use Enhanced Email (in market) much better, no problems for any of my accounts, including exchange.
Second this. Using it now and it works great. Even circumvents exchange security if you want (optional)

Yeah, the only thing that quirks me, and I can't figure out, or understand why, is after you open the app, or receive a message... it cause like 10 -15 of my other apps to open (pre-load) in the background. I know this b/c I will kill everything before hand with a task/app killer, open Enhanced Email, close it, and then hit the killer again, and it says like 15 app were killed... not a big deal, but takes a chuck out of the ram if you don't kill the background apps.
Thanks for the options but it is not free.

Nope it is not... but you get what you pay for most of the time
Dev updates regularly too.
What's the issue with the CM7 email App? It works fine with exchange. Push is fully supported.
I like that you can have multiple accounts and color code them. I it isn't quite as asthetically pleasing as the blur one where you had a folder with all your accounts but it is just as functional.

Nah serial number should be phone not Rom dependant? It is stored by HTC for each individual phone. Also it is not specified in build. Prop as far as I know.
On topic. I bought mine right after release back in march and I have ht03 so seams consistent

Those apps probally auto restart. This is the reason you should not use a task killer. It actually causes more battery usage if you auto kill since auto kill, auto restart cycle uses battery/CPU time.

Facebook app bugg for ICS

So is any one using the ICS ROMs having issues with facebook? I am having this weird issue every time I try and post a status I get a FC. It happens to me on every ICS ROM (I also do 5x wipe every time I install the ROMS)
clear the app's cache and data. can also do the same with a reinstall. last resort would be to ditch the official app for something else
Works fine for me on CleanRom 4.1.

I switch roms frequently while also doing a a full wipe so I have to reinstall FB, and I still have the same FC
FB works fine for me.

Log into Facebook on your computer. Click in the update your status area. The button next to Post where you select who your are sending your list too. Select anything besides custom. I had a custom list with 2 groups in it and Facbook would force close everytime. Try changing it to friends. Enjoy!

That was actually my problem lol, too bad I can't use my custom list

Agreed kryptik06:
I was trying to use Facebook more like Google+ with Customs lists. Looks like Facebook doesn't like that. Glad it fixed your issue. Took me awhile to find that answer too.
What was weird in my case is the issue kept following me to different phones. Then I logged in as my wife and had no issues. That told me it was a facebook setting. So I changed that and bam!
Good times!

Instagram on ics

Can anyone modify the ics apk to work on any of our leaks? Some dev said the reason it freezes is because the EGL's get too high or something... Please don't flame, just asking

Instagram works fine for me on ICS also, but the problem lies in uploading a picture and applying a filter. It locks up the phone and causes a reboot.

Once again, browsing on Instagram works perfectly fine. Try posting a picture. Even DesignGears said that the new leak doesn't fix the freezing problem so I doubt you're right.
Well just browsing is no good, i browse, comment, and like from the PC program. Easier viewing in a grid instead of one by one phone scroll up
I only use my phone to upload pics, since that's not possible from a PC yet
Right so can anyone mod the app to work with out freezing the phone?

Not working for me either but I can easily overlook that one of very few issues with ics. Instagram is overrated anyway. I certainly wouldn't let it hold me back from the latest and greatest OS on the planet.

They just released an update and the filters work fine now.
They addressed it in the "What's new" section too
Edit:
still has some issues.
Posting from gallery results in a black picture. It seems a little laggy, but at least it hasn't crashed on me yet.

1+ posting from the gallery results in you uploading a black pic, haven't taken a pic with the instagram camera yet, but according to your screenshot that works fine....
hopefully another minor update will solve the remaining issues.
I downloaded the new update and tried to upload a picture to see if it works but it rebooted my phone

Yes, it seems to work whenever it wants. I still didn't get a crash yet, but I do get some flickering and lag.
Iphony, yes, atleast it seems to be going in the right direction.

Alarm clock issue after JB Update?

Hey guys, I am wondering if any of you have experience issues with the built in alarm. Mine sometimes does not tend to ring anymore
after updating to jellybean from att over the air update. It will show up in my notification bar asking to snooze it. When I click on this, the screen sort of freezes for a second and does not open the app. Even when I quit the app and try to open it, it just freezes unless I restart the phone.
Have you try clear data?

I will try that for tonight. It happens very randomly don't know why. I have not had any phone issues or updating issue or any of that sort. Except
for occasional lag but could be due to a lot of music on the phone

I had a few problems with my alarm before the update, but it seems to be working fine now. Just go download another alarm clock app from the market. I know it won't look as good, or feel as good as stock, but it's worth a try If your waking up late for work every morning.

Hey, seems that clearing the data has worked so far. I don't know whether its working because of that or not so still waiting till it hangs again. As for downloading a new alarm clock, that was the first thing I had done. But it seems that didnt ring eiher. So i think this was a problem with the phone having to ring,
Ahh, yeah sounds like a phone problem. I hope you got it fixed: )

Any clue on whats causing these system errors

Everytime I use Facebook messenger ill receive these errors one right after the other. They appear after I send a message or shutdown the app. I uninstalled and re-installed and the same thing keeps happening. Thanks in advance.

I have problems with messenger when I have the chat heads active. I will receive the system ui crash lots of times and then when I disable it I never see the error again. Might be worth a try?
I've had the chat heads disabled since they first came out, not a fan.
Well I narrowed it down at least. It was my launcher (GO Launcher) I set sense as my default and used FB messenger and didn't receive the messages. No to figure out why. I'm gonna contact GO as they have EXCELLENT customer service, partly the reason I use their products.

Huh that's strange that you all of a sudden started getting errors with that launcher even though you've used it for a long time. Glad that you were able to get it narrowed down though and hopefully they will have an idea of what's wrong and how to fix it
