What the heck is wrong with Facebook app?

Using cyanogen rom and Facebook keeps loading and never opens unless I reboot. This phone is fast why can't it open Facebook?

Pretty much.

After two attempts at theming it, I have declared it the worst written app on android.

It seems the only way to make it work, potentially, is to build a ROM around it

just use m.facebook.com

it seriously is the worst refutable, if you can call it that, app

The app is so freaking slow, you are probably better off with out it opening.
Maybe after the IPO Facebook will have enough money to afford to have someone fix it.

The annoying part is that the iOS app works flawlessly. No love for Android :-(

Agree with the above. Does anybody use slacker radio I think it works alot better on ios also but my GN is definitely faster in the same area's as my iphone 4 was.

Its probably the WORST app EVER. Someone should go take a **** on Zuckerbergs chest tonight.

For reals, and there is so much more functionality in the iOS app, I mean I would like to be able to tag people in pictures on upload too. #failZuckerburg

+1 for m.facebook.com. terrible terrible app. Of course, just like Spotify, Android takes a back seat with the devs. Anyone know why this is? I would assume with Android being more widely used they would at least try to make the android apps functioning.

I have an iPad and use the Facebook app,; trust me, its crap on that, too. It loads a little better than the Android app, but it kicks me out the application constantly. The teams in charge of the mobile apps are doing a poor job.

Just a heads up this app does NOT like JRO03S at all.. consistent crashes and a horrible experience.

The game does not like my GNex, constant crashes usually always 20 mins into the game.

I beat normal lol focus on transmission and do t worry about lethality till it spreads everywhere then crank it up and watch em go lol

O.k this is kinda cool, fun to play when you're in a destructive mood! Only played 3 times lost twice on normal but wiped out the world in 540 days on casual
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda premium

Have it on iOS but on the iPod it was just too hard to play. Nexus is perfect size.
The trick on the first level is devolve symptoms immediately when they mutate until the entire planet is infected. Store up as much DNA as you can so you can become lethal as soon as you decide to pull the trigger. I had 124 DNA points when I decided to start killing everyone.
Game is superb fun. Great music too.

I've bought a few in-game purchased to help me along, the best one is to auto-pop the bubbles. I've been able to decimate the globe on casual after only playing it about 5 times, I just can't beat it on normal. Its either that I make it too lethal before it spreads everywhere or I make it spread everywhere and kill half to 3/4 of the population but then they cure it.
The game also annihilates my battery, I'm running Clemson's elite kernel and when I have the game fast-forwarded it takes up so much power that even when I have it plugged in it won't charge the battery but just sustain the current level and maybe decrease it by one or two percent!

What happened to Amazons app store? All kids stuff now

The free app of the day used to vary between games and useful apps, now its always kids games and all the things on the main screen are little kid games, is there a new setting im unaware of or do they just suck holy hell now, im ready to un install the pos!

I count on 1 "good" app per month from Amazon... and even at that hate getting it since they are always 1-3 updates behind. Actually got Xscope free, but bought on Play store to get newer version.

It makes sense for them to feature those apps right now. Given the proximity to a kid-centric holiday and that their target demographic is Kindle Fire toting soccer moms, they're going to put apps like that front and center right now. Same can be expected for Christmas.

I dunno if the free apps differ by region, but here in the UK Jamie's 20 minute meals was free yesterday, Jelly defense before that (currently in play store for £2.45) and thumb keyboard was also free recently. It's still worthwhile checking everyday.

Yup, it's mostly rubbish, but still worth checking; I find a few a month I want, here in the UK.

I think it needs to get slower and more non responsive when trying to install apps from your library! Then it won't matter what apps are free .

I was trying to be sarcastic. The app is terrible on my devices (Galaxy nexus and nexus 7). I have a hundred or so apps on the 'cloud' from Amazon. Browsing the list and trying to install them is like pulling teeth. It's slow and not responsive. Button presses offer no feedback and seem nonfunctional most of the time. Is it not like that for everyone else?

+1 laggiest apply in a long while.

Amazon free apps have been crappy. I still take a minute out of the day to check it just in case. Every once in a while, something good comes around. Audubon birds was a big score for me a few months ago.
I do wish you could "purchase" without having to download, even though install is optional, still uses space.
It's been laggy for me too, especially when trying to delete apps off the list. Accidentally discovered that feature a couple nights ago.

I can't believe Google has evolved so much in a relatively short time and taken up such a huge portion of my life! They have always been one of my favorite companies, and now they may be at the top. I've used their search engine as long as I can remember, of course it's my fave. They give me a free minimalist browser that even my ****ty old HP laptop can run. I bought a Google phone and fell in love with Google's mobile OS, that's free too. Then Google thinks, hey, lets automate search.. And they give me Google Now! Baked in is the best damn mobile voice recognition system I've ever used. I cant believe Google was able to pretty much master the art of talking to a phone, I seriously ask my phone several questions a day, and do it around people with confidence that my phone will understand me and speak back relevant information. It does. Throw in all the different "cloud" storage options they have for free: gmail, contacts, voice, g+ instant upload, drive, etc.. I love Google. I'll never have to enter my contact numbers in a phone again. I have to pause, smile and reflect on that for a second. Or how about freaking satellite pictures of the earth wherever you want, or 360 views from the street. All free again.
Google isn't perfect, sometimes they make me throw my hands up wondering wtf they are thinking, he'll sometimes I complain about it to other XDA members thinking the same things. I know Google makes good money off us (and businesses) through its services.. But from the consumers standpoint, Google offers an almost infinite plethora of options for FREE DOLLARS. And since Google is moving towards all those services being much more tightly integrated, I can't wait to see what they have in store for the future!

What does it say when you visit

alternatively, you can install it by downloading the APK (search for it on xda)

It's not officially available in the UK yet.
