So I'm using the Mimicry 1.5.0 ICS ROM, and when I downloaded Facebook, it looks all zoomed in. Its hard to explain so I guess you'll have to see for yourself. I've tried multiple times uninstalling and reinstalling the app. I've erased and re installed the ROM and it always comes out this way. Hopefully someone can find a fix for me. And i've tried using FriendCaster, but I would much rather prefer the Facebook app instead, so please don't suggest apps. Thanks in advance!
Please!

I am suffering from the same issue. This weird zoom-in thing happens also on my current rom "cm10 testbuild-120". It was same on Mimicry 1.5 as mentioned above. Pics through the news feed doesn't look properly and overflow my screen. On my friend's nexus and desire c with stock sense, there seems to be no problem with app layout or another issue. Any help appreciated, please

You are right that Friendcaster is not a complete alternative to FB. BTW, i do not have much hope for help because probably we are the only insist on using that damn FB thing

Since I've installed Froyo based Modaco ROM on my Desire, YouTube doesn't work any more. I just get sound and no picture, and no way to stop the sound playing. Any ideas of how to fix it would be much appreciated.
Thanks!
Seems like a good question for the modaco forums, doesn't it?

Rooted Incredible running CMW 3.0.0.8 and CM7 rom and I am having a problem with the facebook app.
This is after a factory reset & clearing of the caches and installed this app from the market...didn't restore it.
Opening up facebook works fine & navigation is good. I've tested everything else, but when i try to go to messages, the app crashes. I get the message "Sorry! The application Facebook (process com.facebook.katana) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again." & gives me the option to Force Close or Report.
Any advice would be helpful.
Might be just an issue with the app as mine has started doing something similar after I got the latest version.

Same issue and I believe the new FB update is causing it, I dont recall the error before.
The question I have now is where can I download 1.5.1 and use that until FB fixes the issue? Thanks for all the info. Makes me feel better its not something I borked. Man do I love cm7

The best part? Facebook hasn't even addressed the issue publicly. The SECOND best part is Facebook hired Erick Tseng, a lead Android exec, to work on their mobile front. Fist full of phail.

Using Skyraider 3.5. The Facebook v1.5.3 works perfectly.
I was having issues with the latest update of the Facebook app. The worst part was that it seemed to bring down a bunch of other services with it, like Google Maps, Skyfire, Beautiful Widgets, and sometimes even LuancherPro.
I uninstalled the app and now FB through a Skyfire bookmark. No issues.
Hey everyone. My first post and I'm excited to have changed from CM7 to CM10! Thanks to the devs btw for making this possible. Anywho, I've searched for this already on here an Google to no avail. I've installed the Facebook app on my IC2 and for some reason, it looks like entirely different than the original. Doesn't look the same. I've provided a snapshot of it so hope it helps. And it's not just the layout that's changed but even my cover photo isn't visible. Anyone know what's going on?

I thought this was the normal look for mobile? I haven't seen any other versions.
Sent from my Incredible 2 using xda premium
I think it has to do with what the Facebook servers are giving you on cm10. I think its because jelly bean devices are all higher resolution than ours. It does it on the mobile website too, but if you change the user agent to iPhone on your browser it will look normal.
Phantom, parts of it look the same. But with the current version of Facebook for Android, I guess you could say that my layout for my wall looks entirely different. If you check it out on the Play store, mines doesn't look like that. Only the top portion seems to be okay. I don't even have a cover photo! But it's more of an annoyance than anything.

Yeah, I'm actually glad people know what I mean. I'm starting to agree with that. Probably explains why when I go to the Facebook site on the browser it sends me to the Facebook full site instead of the mobile. Hope they fix it soon!

Sooooo.. one LAST update, I promise. Switched back to CM9 Psycho because CM10 right now was just too buggy for my phone. Everything with Psycho has been awesome, including camera. Anyways, that also brought me back to the original Facebook that I had when I started this post and it basically reverted but I rather have a stable phone than a distorted Facebook look. But I guess the problem just comes with CM9 altogether. Anyways, cheers! :silly:
i just use friendcaster its better all around anyways. may not be pretty but its hella functional. im sticking with that till we get a native fb app like we were promised.

Hello guys,
my phone's dialer and phonebook has become very slow.
Sometimes it even takes 10 seconds to load.
I have already turned off all the synchronizations.
There are no facebook or gmail contacts in my phonebook.
I have 400 contacts stored in my phone.
What could be the problem ?
from app drawer, hold the dialer icon. then go into app info and from there 'clear data'. do this for people also...(contacts will not be deleted)
Thanks for your reply.
I've tried your suggestion, but it's still not working.
It's because you have 400 contacts

Hello,
I've got the same problem with stock Sense, also there was a lag sometimes with medium-heavy load when I've been trying to call. The weird is my friend with ONE X got the same problem, so we thought it was our country's network, but since I changed to maxwen-Lloir's CM10 it is running like charm.
I think it maybe HTC sense's problem.......
Sent from my HTC One V using xda premium
Yes it's that yucky Stock Sense problem..
All the HTC One Series have the same problem..... It lags!
Root and flash some other ROM.... and if you want Sense, flash myONEv RC 7.0fx+! I'm amazed to see it's speed... Phonebook/Dialer app is exactly same but it's really fast!
Thanks for your replies guys.
No, I am not using any custom ROMs, just the default HTC Sense.
And I don't want to void my phone's warranty.

I had this same issue with AOKP but not to that extreme extent. There was a slight lag just noticeable enough to be irritating. I tried flashing different versions of gapps but ultimately just gave up. I don't believe it's a contact issue because I don't have the least bit of a problem with the stock dialer.
So, here is my issue:
Since the last 3 updates I can't log in to the app. No matter what I do i just CAN'T. I have an HTC One X (Tegra 3) woth the SkyDragon ROM (the first time that I got the error I was on stock JB). No matter if I use WiFi or Data, I just can't. I've tried differente roms and all of them had the same issue (i'm starting to think that the issue is inside my phone)
So... If anyone out there is able to help I'll apreciate it.
I'm sure you\ve already tried this but gotta put it in, have you gone to apps,and cleared data/cache
download the latest version of facebook from play store
confirmed your username/password by logging off on a computer, and logging back in

Could be something with the registry or something like that?

I have the same versions! Well, I found some comments in spanish but they were from a month or two ago... Could be something with my FB config? I mean, I've never touched it before so I guess that it's not. The 2.3.2 version brought me to this point t.t Now if I install an older one it wont sing in that's why I think that it must be something with my phone or the internal storage i dont know!
I'd be shocked if it was your phone/hardware related. storage maybe, but more likely some cached data somewhere. Have you got more than one apk version in storage?

At the moment i have a little fix to the isue (i like getting notifications whem people write), so i removed all facebook software from my phone and only installed the facebook app (not messenger) and then you will start to get notifications agian.
I would ask you to try and instal the facebook pages app and se if you are able to login there, because I think the same error is in both the messenger and and the pages app.
