[Q] Updating Google+ - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Shortly after I first got my NG, I installed Google+ app on top of the system app because there was an update to the Google+ app. This caused Google+ to not work correctly. It took ages to open streams and my local stream never updated. So I removed the app and all was fine with the version that came with it.
I now see that there are updates to the G+ app. So can I just download or should I wait for a system update? It seems a bit odd as the app isn't listed in My Apps so I can't just update it.
Any ideas?

Just got the GN and updated the Google+ app with no problems.

Strange
Strange that no-one else has noticed this.

After updating again could not detect any slowdown issues between the streams with Google+. Sadly notifications still aren't working for me

[Q] Facebook Toubles...

Is anyone else having issues with the Facebook app? It extends to every Facebook related application including Friendcaster as well as sharing to Facebook from Instagram.
The issue is one of the inability to access any Facebook information while using my data connection. If I switch to wifi it works flawlessly.
Any Ideas?
Yep having the same problem...glad to see its not just me

I'm running AOKP build 40. Aerovans 10.5 kernel. Confirmed not working on the FB app and BARELY working on mobile web.

Also, I've noticed that if I don't kill the FB app it ends up sucking up 75MB of RAM and hogs the CPU

Same here. CM9 aero v10.
Using Stream, it's very slow if it does work at all.
Seems to work ok through wifi though.
I thought it was just me also. lol
I would love to see one of our devs jump on this and fix the damn app in minutes lol

Glad it's not just me having issues, I've tried every rom I got to get the fb app to load, if I'm on 3g ill get a few kb of data to transfer, then nothing I gave up and am using friendcaster, it's running as of now

I'm having the same issue on both my DINC2 and my Nook Color. Not having the issue on my Original DINC. The Facebook app will login and I can upload photos/comment on photos/comment on statuses, but I can't update my own status or post on someone's wall. It says "Unfortunately, Facebook has stopped" anytime I try to update my status. Very frustrating.
I can't login to Spotify, Foursquare, Instagram, or any other app that is linked to my account. I can't even login on Friendcaster. It just sticks in a login loop. On my Nook I'm able to login to Draw Something but that's it. (I know this is the DINC2 forum, I just wanted to throw that in there...)
I don't know how to tell the kernel version. Here is my phone info.

It has to be the Facebook mobile site servers because if you request desktop site it's fast. Facebook app has even gone to **** on my iPod touch

It's not a matter of being slow, though. Unless I am on wifi I cannot access it at all... also, apps that require permissions from Facebook (ie. Instagram, foursquare etc) won't be able to access Facebook to get the proper permissions unless I am on wifi.

OK so I'm guessing its either the ****ty FB servers or our custom roms.....I'm thinking its the FB servers

Its not the ROM's - definitely a Facebook issue.
I am pretty sure they are trying to figure out a way to serve mobile ads thru the server similar to the desktop. It cant be a server issue, its Facebook - lol.
They can more than afford and service high quality servers.
I dont use the app on my phone (or my tablet) anymore cause it took up a lot of space even while 'dormant'. I found three processes running at one time.

Possible solution. Go to your security settings in facebook on a computer, Remove all of your recognized devices, clear data on the facebook app. Log back in. FB on 3g is working for me right now. We'll see.

I quit using the official fb app awhile ago, but recently I installed it again and I changed the permission to user r/w, and executable in rom toolbox and It's been about 6hrs now and it seems like it's running fine, probably got figured out on fb side and what I did probably meant nothing but figure I'd share anyway

Problem with Media Hub.

Ok.. So I'm having a weird issue with Media Hub. I was eager to test the app out since we're getting The Avengers movie tomorrow but to my surprise, Media Hub goes on a never-ending loading loophole. When I first start the app it loads and takes me to ToS agreement but it goes right back to loading immediately after displaying ToS. My phone has never been rooted nor flashed or anything. How can I resolve this issue? Thanks in advance.

I seem to fixed the issue. For anyone going through this problem, this is what I did. I turned on sync and checked all for Samsung under Accounts in Settings. Then I went to Developer Options and unchecked Apps: Do not keep activities. Lastly, I went to Samsung Apps app and updated. Hope this helps anyone that are experiencing this issue ^^

Facebook not updating

Facebook won't seem to update when I'm on the network. Loads fine at home on WiFi. Data is good. Ping is low, speed is high. There's been 2 Facebook updates since this problem began and I'm starting to think its the phone.... Appreciate your input. Stock ROM and kernel.

I have a similar issue, but in my case the app use a lot of data when I'm on 3G, even when is idle... Not sure what is, but this is happening to me from 2 updates before, not sure if it's still, I'll try today at night. CM 10.1 RC1 and sotck kernel from CM 10.1
I think it's the Facebook app itself. The Play Store ratings speak for itself at a very low 3.6.
My issue is that my messages or news feed never loads, and I rarely get notifications when on home Wi-Fi or on strong signal outside.
Facebook app is useless for anything but the notifications. Anything else just load the mobile site.
Guess I got my answer. Thanks everyone.

Same here, I'm not too happy with the new version of this app... I rise a ticket for Facebook, but they haven't contact me, so I guess is probably a genneral issue

new twitter update make scrolling flickr for me

i installed the update manually from the play store , and noticed when scrolling up or down some annoying flicker or stuttering effect
so i went back to original version of twitter , and the problem is gone
installed again and there is no problem , at least for 5 minutes , then the problem is back
i don;t know if it just me
Noticed this today , twitter is not performing well on this device for some reason.

I've not seen the issue specifically but I did stop using the Twitter client once they took away the Home button.
I installed Plume which is working very well and has a great widget that you can tap to update from the home screen without actually opening the widget itself.
