[Q] Facebook Update 1.6.1 - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I know many people hate this app, but I am running the new Market and it says there is an update to Facebook but when I click on it I only have the options to open or uninstall the app. Anyone else having this issue?

I think you should try going back to the old market, wait for Google to put out the update automatically over the air.

Thanks for the Advice, but this was the only app that I have seen it do that on. All other aps have updated just fine. Also I bypassed it going to the Market via my web broswer and installing it that way.

That's a good idea... I prefer watiting for updates... That's just me though.

Its saying the same thing for me. But in the what's new area of the app it says version 1.6.0. Twitter is saying same thing about an Update

Market cannot see all my downloads

After doing numerous back ups and restores, my market will no longer recognize all the apps I download. Since it does not recognize them I cannot see when updates are available.

I am also having this issue. I backed up all my apps using titanium back then updated to damage control 3.5 froyo build. I was able to restore them all but for some reason they are not linked to the market and thus, won't let me update. Anyone know how to fix this?

Any help on this?

This isnt a fix but it my be of help till one is found. If you download AppBrain you can use it to tell you when there are updates. (jsut download then run and sync apps should list all apps with updates and you can then let appbrain update them through market.)
I have the same problem on the download portion seems even doing updates doesnt fix but that is what i do as a work around for now

okay, i figured this out long ago so ill share. just go into you applications settings and go to market then hit the clear data button. once you load the market up and accept the license agreement, it will show up.

It's not a ROM issue, it's an app issue. Every major update FB does breaks all sorts of **** (so much for internal testing); I always read user comments first before updating their app and wait until they clear up the issues.

If you've got 1.5.2 backed up by Titanium Backup then go back to that and it works fine until Facebook fix it.

Having the same issues running CM 6.1. Every time I have updated, I always end up removing updates and going back to Version 1.4.1. It has been the least buggy version for me...
Lol, damn, i wish I would have read the reviews!
Exactly what I wanted to know. Thanks
Does facebook release a beta before sending out updates?

the Market actually has an option to remove the most recent update, so you can just run that

Can anyone please upload the 1.5.2 version? My TB already backed up the 1.5.3 and I only see "uninstall" on the market, no 'uninstall updates' option.
Swtiched to Seesmic
I also couldn't go back, and got tired (very quickly) so I am now trying Seesmic for facebook config only. It seems to work okay if you get tried of waiting.

Google "facebook 1.5.2 .apk" and find yourself a download link for the old version... Helped for me.

The latest update fixed the FC bugs.

I'm getting a "package file was not signed correctly" when I try to update to 1.5.4 from 1.5.2. Any ideas?
*edit* : fixed it, had to uninstall, reboot and reinstall. Weird.
update fixed the fc's for me, too.

New market sucks!!!

I have tried renaming the marketupdate.apk in system/app but it still updates itself. I have tried freezing said apk with titanium backup and yet it still updates itself. I have a version of the market that I like but installing it everyday is getting old. How can I successfully keep it from updating on its own?? I'm on CM7.1 btw. Thanks.
Did you freeze the market or market updater?
Sent from my ADR6300 using xda premium
I froze the Market Updater using Titanium Backup.
A quick search found me this

Hope this helps...
Froze that marketupdater and the damn thing still updates. I then deleted marketupdater and it still updated to the new crap market! What the hell?

I hate it. I can search for an app and then try to install it and it just sits there forever. But as soon as I install the older version and search for the same app and install it, the app downloads and installs right away. Sigh.

Did you try clearing data and cache from the market app?

Yep, multiple times. I have installed the old version a few times now. I must have jacked with the wrong file or something cuz now the new version FCs when I try to download somthing and the old version closes as soon as I click the Market icon. LOL. I need to reinstall my ROM anyway. Fresh start.
It definitely decreased the visibility for my app. In that way I don't like it, but as a user, I got used to it.

Wrappio???

I received a notification in the status bar to upgrade to the newest market. I clicked on it and was taken to a site I had never heard of before - wrappio.com. After looking at the site and reading some stuff online it looks like borderline spyware / spam to me. Needless to say I am not too happy about it. I have not installed any suspect .apk files and only downloaded apps from the market. I am running Juggs 4.1 along with the ICS theme / Darkside theme.
Can anyone tell me where this might have come from?
Thanks, in advance.
I see that type of issue alot with my customers that stop into the store. Download lookout or avg. One of your apps is causing that issue it happened to me with mp3 download pro. All kinds of odd notifications were popping up.

The app didn't find anything for me. I am having the same issue. The wrappio thing wanted my phone number and I stupidly provided it.

Same thing with me but I was able to use Addon Detectors app from the market and that was able to detect the app, it was bloat freezer for me that had the air push ads... Uninstalled it, problem solved.

Thanks. It was Bloat freezer-free. I will just stick with Titanium to freeze my apps.

Facebook Update?

I've never seen a Facebook Update like this before and it says I need to unblock unknown sources so I'm pretty sure it's not legit. But how would this happen? I downloaded Facebook right off of Google Play

The same thing happened to me, I installed it. Hope i did the right choice.
In the info it says version 2.3
Just got the update notification this morning.

bypass play store. um. nah. not going to do that for an already slimy company. and auto update doesn't sound too good. I know it can't install without permission but still. nah. bubye fb.
good thing i dont use the app anymore. i use flipboard for my feed and imo.im app for messaging. no need for the app here
All in app updates need unknown sources checked since they don't come from the plsystore
I like to break stuff!
I'm just making a wild guess but maybe Facebook 2.3 is a Jelly Bean thing?
That would explain why the Play Store isn't being updated.
