Facebook for Android not working - HTC Wildfire S

Just my luck.. I decided to try out .sense's alpha ROM. So I backed up with Titanium Backup and installed the ROM, then restored my data. Now every time I open the Facebook app I get the little spinning circle and a toast comes up at the bottom saying "An error occurred while loading this page.". I've tried what seems to be everything - I've cleared the cache, I've wiped the data for the app and reinstalled it, I've cleared the dalvik cache through recovery and reinstalled the it, I've logged out and in, I've tried using wifi and mobile data 2G and 2G and it just doesn't want to work. What's also weird is that push notifications come through perfectly fine when I receive them, but when I tap on it to open the app, the error message just comes up again.
I saw on a SGSII thread that restoring the app+data when switching ROMs can cause problems, but I've wiped the data and cache...
Can anyone please help me? I don't want to have to get used to another app, I quite like the official one.

We all have that problem, I guess it's just because the app itself is crap.

If you get that error use Facebook 1.5.2 app.. it is working, but it is crap.

Thanks for this post I thought I was the only one but I guess not

If you're having issues like that I would clear your android.secure folder on your sdcard.
Should resolve the issue.

[Q] Problems after flashing rooted Gingerbread.

I rooted my EVO and flashed radio 'EVO_Radio_2.15.00.05.02_WiMAX_27243_PRI_2.15_003.zip'
Then I flashed a rooted stock gingerbread/sense ROM 'supersonic_4.22.651.2_deodexed-signed.zip'
Problem 1: I reinstalled a bunch of my apps using Titanium Backup, but none of these apps are showing up in the Market.
Problem 2: I cannot sync Facebook for HTC Sense. Whenever I try to sign in, I keep getting the error "The service is currently unavailable. Do you want to try again?"
I have tried all sorts of things like uninstalling all Facebook for Android updates and even a supposed fix I found in other forums in which you edit your work information on your facebook profile. Nothing seems to work.
Can anyone help?

For the apps not showing up in your market it takes time and a reboot or two. The facebook thing I'm not sure about though, it wouldn't work right for me from day one so I haven't tried to use it in awhile.
Why do people need their apps to show up in the market if they already have them reinstalled with TB??

I just find it helpful to see which apps need updating. It's definitely not essential.
For the apps download a free app from the market and they should show up they did for me.

Normal when flashing a rom. Give it a few reboots and wait a day or so.

Thanks a lot guys. Today was my first experience with flashing. I can see why it's addicting.
I have a different problem after I flashed to the latest Gingerbread ROM, (on my eVO 4G btw). I flashed the latest ROM "gingerbread evo 1.2v", when that finished i flashed "EVO_Radio_2.15.00.05.02_WiMAX_27243_PRI_2.15_003" (was told it should fix any radio issues). then flashed "gapps 5-21-2011 with Voicemail.apk and Gtalk 1.3 with Voice and Video". My EVO restarted fine but now i cant make any calls or recieve any. In fact the status bar at the top isn't even there. When i press the phone icon i get a message saying "Application not installed on your phone". I must be missing a step or something. Any help would be great, thanks.

I read in another forum you sometimes need to re-flash the kernel after flashing new radios. You could try re-flashing the ROM now that you have the updated radios.
just tried flashing the rom after everything else and still same results. Any other suggestions?

I'm new to flashing ROMs personally, but I've also read people recommending to do a clean wipe 2 or 3 times and wipe the dalvik cache as many times before flashing again. I don't know what sort of issues they feel they are preventing by doing that so I don't know how plausible of a solution it is, but if you've got the time it wouldn't hurt to try.
Hopefully someone with more experience will chime in and you won't have to get your advice from a noob. Best of luck.

My Backup Pro is force closing After update to FD24and i need my data!!

Hey guys i backed up all my data with my backup pro before upgrading my e4gt to fd24 and now i cant get it to run. it keeps force closing on opening and i need my data!
Can anyone please help me?
Did you clear cache/data in app management?
(and I assume make sure the app is up to date, try reinstalling from the market...)

No, I mean go in app management, where you see the details of each application, clear cache/data there. (of this app specifically)
Also, like mentioned previously, TB works well for some kinds of data recovery. What is it specifically that you need? (ps, take a deep breath. remember, with Android, nothing is truly lost on a clean install, except sms/mms, and app passwords that need them.)

Sorry, at work, typing on my phone, can't do a walk through. I'm sure one of our better members will step up to the plate. (did you uninstall, reinstall?)
But no, TB will no recognize MBP archives.

Mine works fine, except that when the restore process is finished, it locks up the phone and I get a blue LED. However, once I uninstalled and redownloaded from the Market, I had no problems.
Make sure you are restoring the same way you backed up... APP, Data, or App + Data.

[Q] Messenger Has Stopped Responding

Anyone else been having this like... CONSTANTLY lately?
I'm pretty sure it refers to Facebook Messenger (it's messenger not messaging, which is how Facebook's Messenger app is spelled). I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the app. I contacted support. I cleared data/cache. I cleared the whole systems cache in recovery. Nothing helps. This thing "stops responding" like 10 times a day. It's unbearable.

I think he was being rhetorical and saying to stop using it.
I'm going to say Uninstall it, reboot, then reboot into Recovery and wipe dalivk/cache and Fix Perms, then reboot System, let the phone boot completely (10mins+), then reinstall said app from Play Store. This is what I had to do with G+ to get it working again.

Fix Perms would be on a custom Recovery, such as TWRP or CWM. If you aren't running one of those (or another custom Recovery), then ignore that part or install one (this is XDA after all).

haha yea i don't root anymore since getting a phone that's actually powerful enough on its own to run the software that comes with it. but xda is still my forum of choice just because it's xda.
well thanks for the advice though, i'll try doing things in the order you mentioned anyway and see if that helps. unless i succumb to buying a note 3 tomorrow haha.

Any luck? I rooted my S2, did a GS2ROMWIPE and installed [WizzedKAT Rom][V2.9 Final !!]. I then restored my backed-up apps using Super Backup.
I had to uninstall and reinstall Facebook as it kept crashing. I decided to also install FB Messenger. At regular intervals now even just when driving and using Google Maps navigation, I get the error "unfortunately, messenger has stopped" and I must click "OK". (screenshot attached).
I've uninstalled Messenger and am yet to receive another error, but I would like to install it again if there is a solution to this error.
EDIT: I followed the steps :

I got to wiping the Dalvik Cache but in Philz Kernel there is no Fix Pemissions. I left that out and rebooted. Then I started getting new errors that "Unfortunately, contacts has stopped". Have since rebooted and Contacts is working again. Will now try reinstalling FB messenger
Fix permissions is starting to be left out of recoveries because it very rarely does anything anyone needs. As for your app im not sure. Its possible the dev needs to update it for use on kk. If you do a clean flash, and only install that app, does it still behave the same? If so its probably a compatibility issue.

Touch wood, but Facebook Messenger seems to have behaved itself in the half-day since reinstalling it after wiping the Dalvik Cache. I can't say why the cache wipe temporarily affected Contacts, but that's fine too after a reboot.
Should the "Messenger Has Stopped" message reappear, I'll look into doing a clean flash to determine compatibility issues of the app, but I never used FB Messenger on my i9100 Stock Rom so I do not have that as a comparison. That said, the OP had issues on an unrooted S3, so the app could be suspect or perhaps me and Polarbearmc had another software issue in common that affected FB Messenger .
Anyhow, if it worked for me, perhaps the OP had to consider temporarily rooting their phone to do this Davlik Cache wipe too. If the OP feeds back that will be nice, for me I'll continue to explore my new WizzedKat 2.9 Rom.

I did, it didn't work. It might something like Adaway that prevents it from working. Will do some further tests. Thanks for your comfirmation.
EDIT: After uninstalling Adaway and Xposed Framework, it still doesn't work. I will have to stick to the previous version. Please note, I'm on cm 10.2.1.3.
Unless you have other suggestions?
Regards,
I have the same problem with this version, I can't update because the app doesn't work, I've cleared the data, reboot and still it doesn't work, I have a stock nexus 5 with xposed but no modules have anything to do with youtube, if anyone knows what we can try please comment

First post. Hi I have xperia z1 havin same problem with this update seems if u go back to stock app (think thats what it's called) works fine but my phone keeps downloading the update on the fly.../ when they gonna fix it cuz im sick of uninstalling the app only to lose my history on youtube in the process, couple of good tunez dissipated in the mist of my mind
This update works just fine with cm11. I'll keep the old version for now and try again with the next.
I managed to fix it, what I did is turn google play services into a user app using titanium backup, then clear the data of youtube in the application section in settings that made the new update work after that I moved play services back to system app and everything is working ok now, you can try this and see if it works for you too
