Today when I woke up I checked facebook and the messages worked, but my news feed and notifications wouldn't refresh. I just ignored it. I checked again an hour later and it still wasn't working. I logged out and tried to log back in but it wouldn't log back in. Most of the time I get no error, it's just stuck doing nothing, but the error I do get it something stupid like "error: Cannot sign in".
I've tried restarting countless times, clearing the cache, clearing the data, uninstalling and reinstalling the Facebook app, using different Facebook accounts and nothing will work.
Using Facebook in the browser works fine.
Any ideas?

Even if you uninstalled it, it still stores some data.. You tried deleting the facebook folder in Android/Data ?
Also if you got to Settings then Apps.. clear the cache and settings from there too..
Hope this helps dude..
Just tried again and it's still not working, ill try the data thing later

Got an app called Friendspace Pro for Facebook and it's supposed to be an alternative.. It wouldn't log in either.
Going to try and log in using the wifi at work tomorrow.

have you tried a factory reset? Could help.
Are you on a stock or custom rom??
Factory reset is bit too extreme.
Try clearing cache and dalvik from recovery.
Also install and open lucky patcher.
It often deletes some stored files.
P.S. I know lucky patcher is related to piracy and I am not promoting it. Just read and observed that it does help in some cases.

I ended up fixing it by turning off my custom hosts file.. No idea why that effected Facebook. (It was to stop an app from checking the licensing server)

I have notice that in the last day or so my phone sync icon has been constantly spinning and draining battery very fast....Help, is there a fix for this???

If you're on a Sense Rom & have removed any system apps that sync, the syncing will go on forever as it's trying to sync an app that's not there. Gmail, Facebook, Peep, Friend Stream & its counterparts, Weather... you get the point. Restore those apps or reflash the ROM to solve the problem. A temporary fix would be going into Settings, Applications, Manage Applications and force stopping com.htc.bgp but you'll have to do that any time the phone syncs.
I don.t recall removing anything...I just start to notice this about two days ago..I am running the Elite Series Custom Rom and have not had any problems untol now...strange...I really hate to reflash

Does a battery pull, wipe of cache, and dalvik cache, and then reboot solve it? It sounds like something is stuck syncing. Maybe Facebook, the weather, or something. When you go to menu>settings>accounts and sync, do you see any of your accounts stuck with the spinning sync icon?

This happens to me on 4G as well. There are times I send e-mails from it and people never receive them and there are times I never get them. Then sometimes it works perfect. I switched to a 3rd party e-mail app. It never fails me. I am using Kaiten but its a paid app. Try K9 on the Market. You can make it black themed and it works well for many.

I had this prob few days back, I turned syncing off, then back on. I then reboot the phone and bam! It started working again.
P.S. Under Applications>All. I also cleared data/cache.

Settings->Accounts and Sync. On apps, select All, and choose Gmail, clear cache and data on that one.

I have lost some faith in G-Mail. I don't understand why I can get a 3rd party app like K9, add my G-Mail account to that, and people receive the e-mails faster than using G-Mail itself. If someone can explain why this is, I would appreciate it.

I think it depends on many factors, we all have different apps, different roms, kernels, and also different qualiies of reception.

Can you be a bit more clear? I'm understanding bits and pieces... what I explained over clearing the cache was your answer to your question previous to your last post.

Got my one the day after release day from Verizon. I've been noticing a couple little bugs going on with the messaging app and want to see if anyone else is having the issues. Friend of mine has the phone to and he seems to be issue free.
The first issue is when hanging up a call, I often get a " unfortunately messages has stopped". No idea what's causing it but it's happening Pretty frequently.
The second one is hard to explain but I'll do my best. A few times while messaging multiple people individually, it some how puts the full message that I just sent right back into the text field. Almost like I never sent it but I did. Ends up saving the message as a draft so I have to erase it. I haven't figured out the exact steps to make this happen but if I do, I'll post it here.
Anyone else having these weird issues?

Not sure if this will help you, but I had imported my old messages into the new phone during setup using the HTC app (I forget what it's called). Messaging was messed up when I started using the new phone. I deleted all messages and cleared the messaging app cache. All perfect since then.

I have my note 3 rooted running stock rom with just a couple of apps disabled frozen such as chat on, s voice, pen up, etc. Nothing that should interfere with the system or anything. But my email app will just force close sometimes Idk why. Has this been happening to anybody else?

Try clearing the data on the email app and the exchange app. Reboot the device and see if that fixed it

I have pinpointed it to when new mail is arriving.force closes 100% of the time.
I think I've found the culprit. I froze the 2 'my magazine' files.
Upon restoring them the email and Touchwiz stopped force closing. If I refreeze them, email FCs 100% of the time when new mail arrives.

I am on Sprint, but have had the same issue--once I defrosted the magazine apps, the issue went away.
Nice!
I rebooted the phone and after that the Facebook app just crashes on launch without any error or anything. I had greenified the app. Uninstalled and installed again. Cleared cache and data. What more do I do

Well sounds like your greenify settings are causing the issue. With Facebook installed go back into greenify and remove the settings for Facebook and reboot. Hopefully it will fix the issue.
Sent from my SPH-L900 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
I did that as well, but to no avail, it just opens and then closes all by itself,
It's the all mighty telling you to finally get off Facebook.
Seriously, is your download coming from the play store or a backup?
Sent from my SPH-L900 using Tapatalk
Lol Well I tried everything a backup and a fresh install. Still stuck on the same issue
Freeze or uninstall Greenify, uninstall/ reinstall Facebook, then see if it works.
