[Q] Can't log in to the Facebook Messenger App. - HTC One X

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

YES! I did that and nothing happened. I don't get what's wrong! It just stopped working since 2.3.2 version!

I must add that I found another people with the same problem in the reviews of the app at the play store! And they where all users of HOXs!

Ok, I must add: I've tried installing the last working APK for me (2.3.1 version) and it didn't worked!!I got the same error message.
PS: Even I've tried the ROM that you are using now and it did not worked.
Could be something with the registry or something like that?

I've just been trying different things to try and replicate the problem but it doesn't matter what I do, facebook and messenger sign in every time without problem. What versions do you have? I Have Facebook 3.1 and messenger 2.4.3. Also I looked at reviews of the new version of messenger and couldn't see any users having sign in problems

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?

I mean, I believe its something with the storage! Not the hardware!! Must be some sort of cached data like you said! And yes, its the only APK file of the app that I have!

I've googled for almost 2 hours now and can't find anyone with the same problem, l will look again later today. its 4 am here now and time for bed

I can tell you, that your not alone. When i look at the danish reviews of the app i can go back to around november last year when people started having problems with not being able to log in.
I myself and a friend both have the HOX and niether of us is able to log in.
I have tried several times finding a way to repport to bug to facebook, but it seems like all their help sections are just loops refering to each others and never ending in something useful.

I knew I was not alone... Did you tried to format your internal storage? What have you done?

Yea, i have tried that and it did not help.
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.

Nope, I was not able to log in to the facebook pages app too! Could be something with our CID's and our locatons? Have you tried a ROM without "sense" like cyanogen or something?

Can you log in from the browser?

[Q] Facebook app crashing in CM7

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.

I used Titanium to roll back to 1.5.1, latest 1.5.3.
I'm using CM7 Final. It appears to be an issue with the new update.
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

Well the feedback in the market tells me that everybody is having FC problems with it since the new update, not just us dinc/CM7 users.

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.

The 1.53 is a headache :X I am running CM7 and whenever I want to view a profile through contact it crashes, I open it, it crashes, I sync calenders, it crashes.
Thanks wolf ...it works like charm
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.

[Q] Facebook app not working properly @ Gio

Hi,,
This problem is related to my gf's Gio, and she's driving me crazy to solve this
Well, a few days ago I flashed a CM ROM on her Gio, everything ok, Gio is great and so on, but her facebook app stopped updating the feed and she can't comment or send messages to anyone, she can only put "Likes" on the first feed page.
I thought it could be a problem related to the rom, flashed the adrenaline ROM and the problem remains, I unistaled, cleared data and unistaled, nothing happens.
Can anyone give me an idea?
Thx in advance

That person was pretty much trying to help you. A little respect is always welcome..
Anyway..
"unistal try and continue to update his facebook"
Uninstall the facebook application. Reinstall, try if it works.
If that was the case, my apologies to him. No disrispect was intended.
Anyway, on my first post I mentioned that I already did that: "I unistaled, cleared data and unistaled, nothing happens."
use an alternative facebook app, the normal one is slow, buggy.

+1 - Facebook apps sucks big time. Look at the comments on market, most of them are negative. I'm using FriendCaster, it's pretty fast...
Well, I tried the older version of facebook app and it is working.
If you wanna try it: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/kyf6f8rm18uuss6/ZqPktHHXmO/Facebook_1.7.2.apk
It's lighter than the newer version, and it is working properly
None of them works for me in cyanogen Rom.
But all of them work fine in stock.

Damn, the problem returned even on the older facebook app. Suddenly its impossible to coment and doesnt update...

Is there any facebook app with chat? (without the official) I know that there's a facebook chat app, but she would have to use 2 apps intead of one.

Facebook App Zoomed In?

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

That's why it's always recommended to take a backup of your data every now and then!
If your rooted, then use Titanium backup.. if not, then use Helium...

Actually, I have experienced this strange behaviour before. Unfortunately, I don't know the cause. The solution for me was to remove the app and re-install it.
