[Q] Facebook wont install

Like title says, facebook as an update from market would not install. I removed existing fb and install clean, no dice. A copy of the olderversion also would not install. SOmething about not signed came up. Any ideas?

I wiped dalvik fixed permissions now all is good.... except. Now it just force closes as soon as i try to open it

The latest facebook version doesn't work for me either. I have learned to back-up my facebook app before updating it.

I tried the backup and wouldn't install. I'm running the newest one finally. After a bunch of cache wipes and fix permissions I got it working. Even the backup did not want to cooperate.

Yep the latest FB update has issues. It installed fine for me on my G2 with CM7 nightly 41, but it force closes when tapping Profile, Friends, or Messages from the main screen. I didn't back up the previous version so I'm stuck with it until they release an update. Unless someone is so kind as to post an apk of the previous version.
It runs fine on my GF's Fascinate (running 2.1) though.
I've always found that the quality of the Android FB app mirrors the relationship between FB and Google.

Yea same here, wouldn't install for me.
I gave up on the official Facebook app and went with Flow for Facebook. Way better than the official app.

I found the same thing and quickly reverted to the old one.

I find this one to be faster!

I got the automatic update yesterday when I opened the old market. New one is nice, but the old one was less complicated. This one though has no server problems so far.
Regards.

Market App itself not updated.

Hi all,
I have a problem w my phone as the market app is not updated( the one w new layout).
I have friends who SGS2 who did nth about it and receive the update. So what do i do abt it??
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium

Yea, me too. I'm also puzzled as well since we both have the same version i9100M from Canada but his got updated to the new market but mine hasn't. Hopefully someone here has a trick to make it autoupdate.

I deleted market data and cache and after a few minutes it got updated by itself, but the latest version is laggy and buggy, prompts you for updates when there are no updates and updates your apps couple of times to the same version. I got back to the older version, faster and more stable.

I have a SGS2 whereas my wife has SGS1. I didn't receive the market update so far, but she did. I have no idea the reason for that, but I liked the new layout (although I think that improvements can, and should, be made), and at least on her phone it seems that it doesn't lag at all.
Lets wait, or wipe the cache, as said above.

Or search xda and there's a download for the new 3.1.x build.

Is it possible to update market if not rooted & on the stock rom? I have 2.3.6 market & on stock 2.3.3. I tried to clear the data & cache but that doesn't update the market, still on 2.3.6.
Pls utilize the below link for installing the market update custom.
http://lts.cr/sgH
you have to enable the "unknown sources" to install.
Also, if someone knows how to revert back to the old market pls inform.

I am in the UK and my Market hasn't updated.. and I guess I am better that way as lot of people seem to be complaining about the new layout and stuff ( on unofficial 2.3.4 not rooted)

This...
After being on the new market for a long time I went back to 2.3.6 because that actually works! The new one was so extremely laggy and unresponsive.
Did like the looks but the speed of the original/old one makes up for it.

Been on 3.1.3 for a while, just deleted data today for the Market App and it changed to 3.1.5

New market is really slow on my Dlink router until I changed to a Linksys. Both with same settings. New market has bugs where it won't load nor install apps.

Yup, 3.1.5 here too after deleting data. But no improvements or changes, still laggy when using phone data, pretty decent on wi-fi though.

no matter how often I delete my data, the market won't update

Google Chrome on Android

No one posted this yet?
It's available on the Android Marché for ICS devices
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.android.chrome
APK also available here:
http://min.us/mv2d7nyM6#5o

I assume this doesnt work on any HTC Desire yet right?

I can't get it to work. It does download the page I want to browse, but it doesn't render it. The screen only gets the color of the background of the webpage.
Anyone else got this problem?
I'm using Sandvold's ICS for Desire.

Seems it requires HWA

im downloading it through the mirror. Just tab the grey file symbol and it starts downloading.. to be continued

Ok, didn't work. Just got a popup message on danish: "Der er et problem med at parse pakken."
Quick translation: "There is a problem parsing the package." Just gonna live with the browser that comes with ICS.

woops - thanks - fixed it in OP

Doesn't work here either (dk_zero-cools's CM9 ROM). Loads pages, but doesn't render the contents. Obviously due to lack of HWA

Yeah it is for ICS so untill someone makes a version that will work with other systems it's not worth trying IMO.

No more chrome to phone eventually... I guess.

All the links here seems to link to a corrupt file
here is a working one

Didnt see this post but posted the same in the Themes and app section. It doesnt work for me either. I would love it too, but like everyone is saying its probably due to HWA support.

doesn't work "package file is invalid".
BUT more worrying is that Google just released a new version of the Google+ app and that is giving me the same error "package file is invaid" (no probs with other apps, just those coming from Google)

nice update thanks.

Sorry stupid question, what is the difference between Chrome Beta and Chrome?

It's like any other beta software. Newer features yet considered stable. I personally get the beta off the play store.
Another thing is I'll make sure I turn on to submit crash reports and usage stats since the whole purpose of a beta is to bug fix.
And while I'm at it type chrome://flags in it to open up the advanced settings to see if there's anything new they're tinkering with that sounds interesting to enable

alternatively, you can just go to the web version of the playstore and search for Chrome Beta and push install from there.. then you will always be prompted for update if there is any.. :laugh:
