Odd problem here. I start wifi tethering on my Nexus 4, connect my tablet, and try to browse using Chrome, but can't get anywhere. Every page I've tried to load just keeps loading and loading forever. However, I can browse using the built-in browser, every other internet-requiring app (Netflix, Twitter) works, and Chrome works just fine if I'm connected to my wifi at home.
Anyone have any thoughts on why this would be?

Not sure this is a Wifi Tether issue. I Tether alot and use Chrome with it without any issues.
That's weird that chrome doesn't work while tethering

You may have to set up proxy for chrome based on your apn

Something along these lines was correct. Changing T-mobile APNs re-enabled tethering with no issues.

apparently the stock browser works on wifi.. :O
is it my telco's issue ?
I've tried facebook, gmail, twitter, youtube, literally everything that requires mobile data .. everything works cept browser, that's why I rulled out the probability of my mobile internet having issue. It seems that I'm wrong .. D:
anyhow.. should I just wait then ?
It wouldn't hurt to call them up and see if there is a problem on their end that could be causing this. How long has this been going on? It might just be a network problem if this just started.

Are you developing wireless tether? Or just asking a question in the development section rather than in General or the Q&A section?

Is anyone else having issues with the Facebook app? It extends to every Facebook related application including Friendcaster as well as sharing to Facebook from Instagram.
The issue is one of the inability to access any Facebook information while using my data connection. If I switch to wifi it works flawlessly.
Any Ideas?
Yep having the same problem...glad to see its not just me

Also, I've noticed that if I don't kill the FB app it ends up sucking up 75MB of RAM and hogs the CPU

I'm running Aeroevan's cm9 with the v10 kernal. It happens with sense roms as well... I have got seesmic to work properly over 3g but i had to turn on wifi to get it to connect to Facebook initially.

Same here. CM9 aero v10.
Using Stream, it's very slow if it does work at all.
Seems to work ok through wifi though.
I thought it was just me also. lol
I would love to see one of our devs jump on this and fix the damn app in minutes lol

Glad it's not just me having issues, I've tried every rom I got to get the fb app to load, if I'm on 3g ill get a few kb of data to transfer, then nothing I gave up and am using friendcaster, it's running as of now

I'm having the same issue on both my DINC2 and my Nook Color. Not having the issue on my Original DINC. The Facebook app will login and I can upload photos/comment on photos/comment on statuses, but I can't update my own status or post on someone's wall. It says "Unfortunately, Facebook has stopped" anytime I try to update my status. Very frustrating.
I can't login to Spotify, Foursquare, Instagram, or any other app that is linked to my account. I can't even login on Friendcaster. It just sticks in a login loop. On my Nook I'm able to login to Draw Something but that's it. (I know this is the DINC2 forum, I just wanted to throw that in there...)
I don't know how to tell the kernel version. Here is my phone info.

It has to be the Facebook mobile site servers because if you request desktop site it's fast. Facebook app has even gone to **** on my iPod touch

It's not a matter of being slow, though. Unless I am on wifi I cannot access it at all... also, apps that require permissions from Facebook (ie. Instagram, foursquare etc) won't be able to access Facebook to get the proper permissions unless I am on wifi.

OK so I'm guessing its either the ****ty FB servers or our custom roms.....I'm thinking its the FB servers
Sent from my Incredible 2 using xda app-developers app
Its not the ROM's - definitely a Facebook issue.
I am pretty sure they are trying to figure out a way to serve mobile ads thru the server similar to the desktop. It cant be a server issue, its Facebook - lol.
They can more than afford and service high quality servers.
I dont use the app on my phone (or my tablet) anymore cause it took up a lot of space even while 'dormant'. I found three processes running at one time.

Possible solution. Go to your security settings in facebook on a computer, Remove all of your recognized devices, clear data on the facebook app. Log back in. FB on 3g is working for me right now. We'll see.

I quit using the official fb app awhile ago, but recently I installed it again and I changed the permission to user r/w, and executable in rom toolbox and It's been about 6hrs now and it seems like it's running fine, probably got figured out on fb side and what I did probably meant nothing but figure I'd share anyway

I have a Galaxy s3 for tmobile with jellybean and I dont know why but every time I try to go to facebook mobile ( using any browser ) it takes a lot of time for it to load, but if i go to google or any other pages it loads amazingly quick. So i dont know the problem but i read problems with data is because my mobile network is set to lte/gsm/wcdma ( auto mode) and obviously i know tmobile dont have lte but my question is should i change the mobile network to wcdma only or should i keept it how it is ? thank you for your time
The mobile page for Facebook is slow...is there a reason your not using the app? The wcdma is default...if you change it from what I hear it will revert back to wcdma again.

I have noticed the Facebook page loads really slow on the browser. Started happening not too long ago. Have started using the app instead. I hated using the app before but the latest update seems to be working really well

The new fb app was completely revamped and written with native components instead of a shell to render html5 like in prior version. By going native, it is way faster now. Give the app a try.
If one site is slow while other sites are quicker using the same browser, I don't know why people blame it on the mobile network instead of the slow site. Just a thought.

very true... thank you all ill give the app a try once more

I can access goo.im on my evo lte when connected to the sprint network,
As soon as I turn on wifi (keep in mind that all devices in my house are connected to the same att gateway modem) and try to reload the page I get the problem loading page blah blah blah. But when I turn wifi off and use my sprint connection it works fine.
On my nexus 7 (wifi only) it wont connect to goo.im via the google chrome browser or app, and now Im on my computer and getting the exact same issue.....and yes my interent works.
