1) Doesn't happen to me. Not a universal issue.
2) Chill out.
oh, and no one is forcing you to use the Facebook app.
Here's some cheese to go with that whine:
Fast for Facebook: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=app.fastfacebook.com
Friendcaster: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=uk.co.senab.blueNotifyFree
1. Change your kernel governor to Interactive or Conservative.
2. Use Friendcaster. Its way better anyway.

or you can just use the facebook mobile site thru the browser.
I used friend caster way before and I didn't like it but I been hearing a lot good things about it so I ma try it out. It looks neat will see how notifications behave. Facebook app sucks on Android or iPhone idk why can't they make it right

This is a known bug. It happens on my phone every time.
- Install facebook app
- login
- exit the app
- run the app again
If you install eg. "OSMonitor" you'll see the facebook process is consuming a lot of CPU in the background.
Given their track record, they'll probably fix it in a few years.
I have another issue with Facebook. For some reason every time I try to share something it comes in some foreign language. Coincidentally started after installing flip board. I have uninstalled flipboard and also reinstalled Facebook but no resolution. Please help.

Turn off Facebook sync? works for me. My battery life is beyond awesome.
m.facebook.com bro
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
the only function I'm really interested in (contacts sync) doesn't even work with the official facebook app.
Facebook sucks up battery and network for me, in crazy ways.
If I login to facebook and leave it running, I get zero notifications, loading anything (even over 4G or wifi) takes forever, and it somehow managed to suck up 2 gigs of data in a 72 hour period (as well as using 38% of my battery?!?). Anyone have any idea why/how THAT happened?
It's an easy fix though: uninstall app, use m.facebook.com

Hello all,
As the title says really, tweetdeck was alrite but hadn't been updated in years and tweekdeck started to go odd and fail liking posts for example and currently Seesmic seems to force me to open pics in the browser rather than showing a preview. Can anyone name some of their favourites especially when being able to update both Facebook and Twitter at same time? Feel free to review it briefly saying why you like the app.
Best

I only know of 50/50 solutions unfortunately. Friendcaster allows you to update facebook statuses and share them to twitter. Flipboard can sync twitter and facebook feeds. I don't use twitter so I have no idea how well it works but viewing facebook pictures opens up inside flipboard rather than sending you to a website.

I've tried a variety of different facebook and twitter apps but i still prefered stock apps for both i recently tried tweetcaster (twitter client) but there just seems to be alot goin on in that app for my liking.

Depends what you desire from your client. Personally, I like http://boidapp.com/. It's not as fully featured as some others but look beautiful.
Well ideally would like the app to do both fb and Twitter,be able to view peoples pictures direct in the app without it using the browser and lastly to be able to update both at once. So i would like smoking similar to tweet deck and tweak deck but not so...well buggy. The reason for this thread was because it got to the point where everytime i tried to like a post it would fail. Even after reconfig and even a wipe of the app data. I got fed up with it and removed both afore mentioned apps.
Have you tryed tweakdeck?

Friend caster is a good app but it has a lot of stuff that are missing from the original Facebook app like search doesn't work well with it

Yeah tried friend caster but it didn't get on well with me :-(
Facebook - Friendcaster
Facebook & Twitter - TweetDeck & Flipboard
Try em' out & review it for yourself ^^
Friendcaster & Boid
Facebook native app is good enough. Just make sure u do a fresh install on every update.
For twitter I suggest TWEAKdeck, paulobrien version of tweetdeck. Lots of improvements compare to original tweetdeck
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
I recommend twicca for twitter. It has a built in viewer for pictures and tweetlonger. It also has color themes.
As for facebook, I can't recommend anything because I don't have a FB account.

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

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

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

Hi guys
Just switched back to android from iOS after two years.. Am looking for an app or widget to post status update simultaneously to multiple social networks... Couldn't find it through search. I found multi post that uses ping.fm but that is now closed. Suggestions?

If This Then That - IFTTT
Not an app, but a web service - you can make basic 'recipes' such as "If I post a status on facebook, post a tweet". There are a bunch of triggers and actions you can use, plenty of services to hook into, and a bunch or recipes made by other people to browse.
Perhaps a bit more encompassing than an app; I thoroughly recommend it
Thanks for the suggestions friends. I am primarily looking to update fb, twitter, g+ and linkedin directly from one place without having to copy paste or retype. IFT TT is an option but I'd rather do it from one dedicated app or widget. Quite a few software for the same on iOS, one of my favorites being sociable. Anything that comes to mind for this?

I recently backed up my contacts through the Samsung online service as well as the sd card option.But the problem I am facing is that when I restore them the contact pictures tend to degrade in quality exponentially ! Is there any way to back it up without losing the quality?
NOte : Rooting is my last resort and my device is the International Note 2
Well i have set some of my contacts with picture thru gmail and some from the phone.
The ones fron gmail always appear clear and perfect but the one from phones are not so much

I am facing problem with Gmail backup also
When pictures of most of the contacts are big the sync shows syncing continues and cancel sync also don't work
Sent from my GT-N7100 using Tapatalk 2
Is there any app that saves them offline with the original picture quality?
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda app-developers app
it has to do if they are favorites(starred in android) or not!
all the favorite contacts have high quality pics and all that arent "starred in android" have small pictures
a small walkthrough i have found is to have internet connected, sync on and the contacts that you want to edit you press the star at each contact one by one
and you wait for about 3-4 seconds and then you press again the star so to be removed from favorites contacts
plz try and let me know!
If synced through Gmail, open the contact on your phone and wait a few seconds, it'll sync the picture to the one stored (high res).
People is there and offline app that backs up contact with the HQ photos?
