[Q] Arc not uploading images to Facebook? - Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Anyone having problems with their images not being able to uploaded to facebook? My phone is not rooted.
Each time I upload an image from either facebook app or from gallery, it shows the progress bar and once it gets to 80%, it gives the error message that it failed. This happens all the time recently. I uninstall the app to see if it was the problem, but its not.
If I use foursquare to take an image while checking it, it shows up on Facebook..so its quite weird.
Please let me if anyone has encounter this problem and know a fix for it!

Worked a while ago
Didn't try it with the new version yet.

i had the same issue . AND this error only occours, when you update the FB app from the default one, therefore If U delete all updates from FB app, from the application setting, it works.
AND it works with the newest updteted FB app too, if U share with your friends !!! not with any of the other groups .... that's folks !

the facebook messenger & the official XDA app

Heya
Please help me, I don't get the clue!
First Problem:
From one day to another my facebook messenger notification doesn't work anymore. A few days ago, one reflashing to cm 7.2 RC 1 between, I had the same problem. Not sure but I think i saw a hint in the forums like "just disable and enable the notification in die messenger options". At this point it worked the first time for me (AND I was running supercharger script and JuiceDefender - I really have no idea which settings or apps can conflict with the messenger as well?). Now I have the same problem. Notifications are enabled but won't show up.
I would be overjoyed if someone can help me!
Please let me know if I forgot any informations!
I don't rly like to use friendcaster (free) because of the adverts. Never tried it though. Maybe they are not annoying/everywhere? I read that the notifications work fine with this app. Are there any compareable alternatives?
Second Problem:
The official XDA app is FCing very often. Even when I try to bookmark/favourite a forum!? I think this probably no common problem isn't it?
Thanks a lot guys!!!

Facebook notifications don't work for many people apparently, me n the missus included. I don't use it anymore but she is on it 24/7, i found a separate App for her which pushes notifications and i think you can set it to open the facebook App when you touch the notification. I'll see if I can find it again.
Search the market for an App called adfree, that should stop the adverts in most free apps.
Try reinstalling the xda App again it almost works flawless for me.

adfree is installed already, so I try friendcaster!
reinstalling the xda app was the first intention i had, didnt worked.
The App my girlfriend uses with the facebook App is called Slk notifications for facebook.
You probably won't get notifications when the screen is off using juice defender as it cuts your connection, you should know that already tho so just ignore this comment.

the same problem I have on facebook messenger app..
I dont get msges as notification.. all the time, I should check the app if i got any msges.. and I really cannot understand what the problem is.. It happens to me for couple of months.. somedays works, somedays not.. I think, its not about the app, its about my phone.. but sometimes, even I dont change anything on my phone, it stop working
and 2 days ago, I installed new facebook app with facebook messenger.. first hours, it was okay.. I could get msges as notification, then it stopped also.. then I installed facebook messenger again, and that wasnt work either..
a month ago, I read a strange thing about that issue.. to solve that problem, seperate the battery from device, wait about some minutes, and put the battery to device again, and run it.. It worked for me for a while.. but now, It doesnt work either..

[Q] Did someone hack my phone?

Hello everyone,
Since the beggining of this week, I'm experiencing a weird and suspicious event.
My wifi icon shows up like if I was downloading something 24/7 (please see the attached picture)
Seems like some app keeps using my wifi to send/receive data (could be a trojan ?).
I want to know your thoughts about this knowing that I rebooted both my phone and rooter several times already.
Thanks.
Hey dude,
That's normal. Most times bloatware is running as a back process on the phone. It also depends which apps you've got. Like news apps or if your Facebook or Twitter is active. Don't worry about it, I would say.

If you are worried about Trojans do a search on Play for one of the free security software. A good one will scan and show you suspicious apps you need to evaluate and possibly remove. Good luck
Best way to find out is root and use Android Firewall. It is free and useful. You can block and just check logs to see what is sending traffic.. and where.
Thanks for the answers guys
It does look like some heavy working app because It takes ages before a normal website loads.
@Beowulf_pt : that's exactly what I'm looking for, cheers !
You really need to look at what you have runing in the background and decide if you want all of it turned on. There is a lot of things that are on by default that you may not need like auto updates for apps. They will be checking to see if there is an update and use your bandwidth even if there is no update available.

It could be google instant upload / picasa (check your Google Account sync settings) or Dropbox Camera Upload (check dropbox app settings).if you have those enabled that could be the cause. I'd guess they're the most likely culprits in this case.

**Updating Contact List** Makes SMS, Phone Log, Phone keypad Freeze

Hello everyone,
About thw past week or so I have been having this problem. I flash a new rom and for a day or two phone works fine, but then sms freezes and crashes. I open contacts app and it says that its updating contacts list but never does.
I end up re-flashing the rom for the problem to go away, but sure enough it happens again. I've had this problem with 2 different roms. I have also odin back to stock and rooted again, but same has problem occurred. Has anyone else had this problem ans found a solution?
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Could be a syncing problem? Where are you contacts getting "updated" from?

I had the same problem. So, when I updated my ROM, I didn't reload my contacts. I just let Google resync them, and the problem was gone. Hope this helps.

I had a similar issue and my phones dialer actually froze I couldn't make calls or anything. Also was getting the message android process acure had stopped. I know that message is realated to syncing and contacts I belive but my only soulation was to wipe everything and reflash my rom. It has worked so far. Just hope it won't freeze up again.

[Q] htc m8 cannot save image using facebook messenger

hi guys! glad to have found this thread.
how are your phones so far?
I have a prob with mine.. it's very weird.
idk if you're using fb messenger... but i can't save images from chat when i'm on it. when I long press on the image and press save image, the little gray popup that's supposed to come up and say "image saved" doesn't appear. tried reinstalling the messenger app, still no go, so i completely uninstalled it.
and then what I did was i also uninstalled any updates from my built-in fb app and then went back to the factory version. I could then save images from chat and they appeared in my gallery under the album named "messenger." so then, I updated the fb app (again--I could still save photos from chat at this point).. so I thought it was all good.
I went back to the play store and reinstalled fb messenger, but then I couldn't save pics again! my friend who also has an m8 could save pics using her fb messenger app (with the fb built-in app not updated since she bought it).... this is just one annoying bug!
has anyone here had this prob? or is it just me. my m8 isn't rooted, no nothing. i reset my phone to factory version and wiped out even the data on my sd card, TWICE. but still the same issue. is it the fb messenger app or is it my phone?

It's the messenger app, I have this problem too. Instead I just screenshot the pics and move them to the messenger folder via gallery.

The custom ROMS wont help you in this, the Messenger app is the problem.

PROBLEM with Stock Messenger attaching backed up google photos. Hangouts works. Help!

I'll try to explain as clearly as possible.
When I try to attach a backed up google photo using the stock messenger, all of a sudden it's not showing my back ups. It just lets me choose one of about 150 photos even when I choose the photos option like I have hundreds of times. I have over 2000 photos backed up.
When I go to Hangouts and try to attach the same exact way, ALL 2000+ OF MY BACKED UP PHOTOS ARE AVAILABLE.
This started last week, and the only thing I did since then was install Allo and I'm not sure if this caused the problem, but it is now uninstalled which would have happened anyway because it's horrible. The problem is still there regardless.
A friend of mine with the 6P just duplicated the exact problem as me.
Can any of you try this and see what's going on please?
How coincidental, I have the same issue.

same issue here. I have an unrooted 5x running nougat. All of a sudden I am no longer able to access my backed up photos in the stock messenger app. I used to be able to. I am still able to open google photos and then link the image to a text message that way.

Try hangouts and see if they're all there to attach. They are for me. This is so weird.

I switched my default messaging app to hangouts. Still no images at first. But if I click to attach the image there is another image icon on the bottom right. I click that and I can choose from where I want to pull images from. This allows me to access google photos.
This seems like the stock android messenger is just not talking to the google photo's. Wonder if there is a permission somewhere that isn't granted.
I have left feedback as well as a negative review in the store in hopes to get this issue resolved.

Yeah and like I said my friend with his 6P has the identical issue.
I also put this problem in the app review.
Very frustrating.

I find the quick reply not marking the message as read more annoying
This just got really frustrating!!
Can anyone see if they can even share a pic from your Google photos app to someone in messenger? This was my alternative to the backups not showing up anymore using the attach option in messenger.
Now all it says is ERROR DOWNLOADING ATTACHMENT.
Edit: I closed and then opened the Google photos app and now it attaches without the error.
Not sure why this feature was taken out of our stock messaging app.
