i had that same problem but solved it by uninstalling google maps then installing it from the market

I installed it without any problems. If you have issues installing the 4.4.0 update, first uninstall Google Maps and then install it from the Market application.

Installed just fine for me on my Desire using the update option from the market.

yeah same here no issues but in order for places to showup in programs u need to restart.

I noticed lattitude has also made an appearance on the menu too.
I think they need to update the Places app though. By clicking on "Gas Stations", i am given results for companies that sell bottled gas, not petrol or diesel. By clicking on ATMs, i am given a recovery company 20 miles from me, not cash machines.

I had no problems installing on Froyo/Sense MCR6.

Turn the phone off and on again then check the menu and "Places" will be listed in with the rest of your apps.

It's such an awesome update, but it causes this weird lag problem on my phone that pretty much freezes it. Having to do a battery pull after every 1 or 2 videos isn't fun

I read through nearly all of the comments and of those mentioning they had a G2 all but 2 or 3 said they were having this problem. I'm gonna wait for them to fix it for the G2.

Same here.

The new youtube app isn't the only one that was updated. Most of the gapps also have new versions on the market. For example, the shopper app or the street view app had new versions on the market that I wasn't aware of until I searched pub:"Google Inc." You guys should probably download those as well.

Yeah probably, but the apps weren't linked to the market so I had no idea that some of the other apps were updated too. For example, maps always updates itself so I assumed the rest of the gapps would do the same.

Try avoiding the use of the "back" button while you're in the YouTube app. It hasn't crashed for me since I stopped. I'm sure an update will come pretty soon. This is an entirely new version of the app, it may take awhile to get all the bugs worked out. Looks promising, though. I like the UI.

anybody else having problems with the android xda app

is anyone else using the xda app here I can't get it to do much of anything once I log in.

Since updating to 2.0.71 from 1.0.84 the xda app has been pretty much useless.
It force closes often while trying to view threads and ALWAYS force closes on exit if I'm logged in so it loses the login data. Start up time is also excessive.
Had no problems on the 2.1 firmware whatsoever.
Market problem? Firmware problem? App problem?

Confirmed... alas, it didn't work from the start, even with 2.1.

Same problems here.

It never worked for me, either. I remember with my Eris that when we got Froyo we had to use an older version of XDA for a while. My first Archos died before i could investigate, and i just got my replacement yesterday. I will try to find an older version.
If anyone has an older one they could post...Im too scared to search the XDA forums with any of these keywords "xda, apk, developer, application"...

Xda app is never work once I logged in, failed.
I use tapatalk, working perfectly on my A70IT. Xda app is based on tapatalk, it looks identical.

doesnt work for me too

Works GREAT for me every time

Thanks, that certainly works better! Although, with this version theres no favourite forum feature? So you have to navigate to the required forum each time - unless I'm missing something?

It works fine as long as you don't sign in.

No good for me either. Constat force close

I have two Android tablets, an Archos 101 and a Zenithink ZT-180. Neither one works with the newer XDA application - FC after a few clicks. This older version does run, though devoid of most features that makes it useful. Is anyone embarassed?
Bye.

It's a shame,the new version is so much better,the old version works but lacks off all the practical features ,is this apply even in further development or is it frozen.

New on here .
Xda app works perfect on my desire, but the app fails every time on my archos 70 as soon as i sign in .

[Q] Facebook wont install

Like title says, facebook as an update from market would not install. I removed existing fb and install clean, no dice. A copy of the olderversion also would not install. SOmething about not signed came up. Any ideas?
Love the Overclocked "nonsense" CM7

I wiped dalvik fixed permissions now all is good.... except. Now it just force closes as soon as i try to open it

The latest facebook version doesn't work for me either. I have learned to back-up my facebook app before updating it.

I tried the backup and wouldn't install. I'm running the newest one finally. After a bunch of cache wipes and fix permissions I got it working. Even the backup did not want to cooperate.

New FB app FC's all the time... its a POS.
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App

Yep the latest FB update has issues. It installed fine for me on my G2 with CM7 nightly 41, but it force closes when tapping Profile, Friends, or Messages from the main screen. I didn't back up the previous version so I'm stuck with it until they release an update. Unless someone is so kind as to post an apk of the previous version.
It runs fine on my GF's Fascinate (running 2.1) though.
I've always found that the quality of the Android FB app mirrors the relationship between FB and Google.

I think it looks quite smart. Bring it on

Mine was choppy and didn't display images till i rebooted. then it worked just fine.
also if you're rooted you can try to wipe market data in titanium backup and reboot. or wipe cache and reboot and try that.

Works pretty dam good on non-rooted stock.
Video is nice and smooth. Couldn't really tell I was streaming on mobile data. (Which was probably 4g)

dang! Im running the pyro rom but cant get this to install. it just says "Application not installed" anyone has any ideas how to fix this?

Anyone having issues updating apps? I've had 2 apps now show up in the 'update' heading, but when u click thru to the app the top dialogue boxes are 'open' and 'uninstall', as if that page doesn't recognize that there's an update.
Once 2 apps were available for updating, the "update 2" button comes up and it allows me to hit it. 1 of the 2 updated. the other still won't. Tried wiping Market data and rebooting, no luck. bleh.
UPDATE: Well after doing several reboots and etc. etc., I just simply went back to the file (From this thread) and re-installed the market again. Now the 'update' button shows up! Not sure what I did but it works now.
