My bookmarks stopped working after I updated to Kitkat and turned Google+ off and then on, clearing history and cache. Not sure if one of these actions caused the problem. My husband has the same tablet and his work after Kitkat so could be Google+. Clicking on the bookmarks in the stock browser just opens to google.com. Any ideas?
Could the lock be causing this?

I also noticed that in the address bar there is a star which I would expect and a lock. My husband's does not have a lock. Anyone know how to unlock?

since updating to 2.10.405.2 stock firmware the friend stream widget hangs showing updating on the bottom bar. some times it show new posts other time it does not , seems only to be when manually updating / refreshing.
resting the phone / force closing the widget or removing it and re adding, when it reloads it show all posts and time when updated.
I have tried stopping the services and clearing the data/cash without success.
does anyone has any suggestions?
when this happened to me it was actually a problem with facebook/twitter
if you have the actual apps you might want to check if you've entered the right usernames/passwords etc
if it was working when you first installed the system then a hard reset would fix the problem, meaning either your information is incorrect or even when you reset you re-created the problem.
thanks. i can log in to facebook and twitter no problems and go in to the friend stream app, its only a problem with the widget.
Since i've started my adventure with Desire I have problem with Friendstream widget. It updates itself when it wants and never when I want it. Sometimes it is stuck for 2 days.
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
random fix, i installed the Facebook app from the market place and now its working, i was using the stock app that was installed by default
hey guys, am having serious problem from last 4-5 days. Apps on my galaxy n7100 are not working properly/completely when i use home wifi, i get below mentioned problems for specific apps:
playstore: check your connection and try again
facebook: error loading news feed, tap to retry
gmail: not syncing and even not updating , in other words not working
whatsapp: sometimes i get notifications for new messages/calls but sometimes not, and when i open the app itself i get the notifications
facebook messenger: unable to login, but once i login using any other wifi, now i get messages
similar things are with many other apps like pages manager, snapchat etc.
Hike is working fine! (indian messenger app)
i got this problem first time from facebook messenger, it wasn't loading new messages, then suddenly facebook stopped loading and finally play store and everything else.
i tried updating all apps, uninstalling and reintsalling these apps, uninstall and reinstall play store app completely [removed even factory version and used an olde backup i had on my pc to install it again] , but nothing worked!!!
is there any serious issue with android going on these days or what?
am using no proxy server nothing on my router, my PC and laptop are working fine over my home wifi, even many other apps are working on phone and internet is working, but the problem is with some of these apps. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks

Start with restarting modem, then turn off sync and see if something changes.
There is also option to turn off wifi power saving in service menu (it was somewhere in forum).
Go as close to modem as possible.

i already did modem resetting, restarting and even allocated dedicated IP for the android device. but nothing happens, though i found a small thing, when i restart modem, things work and i get push messages/notifications for a very small amount time say 4-5 seconds thats it!
Suddenly today my facebook camera icon to attachnimages to comments is missing when viewing via Chrome browser, but it's still there in Firefox and request for desktop version.
Anyone got any ideas what's up? They trying to force us to use Thier apps or something screwy?
Do you realize that you speak gibberish in your post? I'd love to help you, but your language is not comprehensible!
I'm also having trouble figuring out what has happened. It seems the camera icon for comments is missing from Facebook when I'm using chrome. Unless I switch to desktop. I've tried reinstalling chrome, clearing data and resetting settings.
Seems it just took a few days not exactly sure I did anything but the icon has reappeared.
Anyone else having issue with Facebook notifications?
Every other app works fine - Google+, Twitter, LinkedIn..etc.
I checked my app settings and notification settings within Android and everything seems to be in order. Even re-installed the Facebook app and still no dice.
When I open the app I see I have notifications, however my phone isn't notifying me of anything related to Facebook. I have open the app to see the notifications within the app.
Anyone else having the same problem?
I am on Pixel 2 XL 8.1 stock.
Did you disable background activity for the app?

No, it is active.
Having the same issue. Also there are times the app doesn't recognize that the phone is connected to WiFi. The app continues to update the feed, but the videos won't auto play until I turn off WiFi then back on.
Have you ever cleared the cache and data under the Google Framework Services trying to push the OTA update? It is said that would break GCM things.

I have the same issue. I just tried Desktop Mode for the first time a few days ago and noticed it was missing. Were you able to use Chrome in the past? You mean it just disappeared after a recent update? In that case we could roll back to a previous Chrome version...
Anyone know how to add apps to the desktop mode start menu?
All G apps except Chrome are missing.
