Hi All
I have installed the new Facebook application from the Microsoft Website and when I run the app, it allows me to place my username and password, but then crashes and make my phone slow. (To resolve the issue I have to switch off and switch the phone back on)
I did have the Facebook-Ather version and this work fine, but the new full version (Facebook_v1.0.0.7p) doesn't
Has anyone else had this issue and is there any known fix’s?
Thanks
I didnt have this problem, but after i installed mine, i didnt really like it.
So i uninstalled it, and im now using the Fim programme now, which allows
you to use the instant messenger and look at your web page at the same time. Its so much better. Hope this helps.
Id say try this app.

Just yesterday I found that you can not add new friends using the facebook application by searching their name or email address.
the 1.007 microsoft facebook suck biiiiiig time.
Mostly with me it just says "fetching" for every tab and never gets the job done. And it doesn't update the stuff.
So I use opera on my HD for that stuff, fast - but many things are missing on the mobile version, like foto upload.
When you go to All contacts on your phone and check there the updates - once you have given your userid and pwd - it seems to find the known contacts quite well.
abe
i have one answer: use Iris browser. not only i am enjoying the full functionality of facebook but i can even play mafia wars ...
i don't understand the obsession with Opera. yes, our HTC devices come with Opera built in but after 5 minutes with Iris...i forget Opera.
with Iris you can enjoy facebook even in iphone style. just try on Iris:http://iphone.facebook.com
Thanks, I have traid this and it seem to work well.
Please report any bugs here. Mention what browser, browser version, and OS you are using, and also provide steps to recreate the problem.
Also, tell us how to improve the Portal. What new features do you want to see?
Thanks in advance.
I am using Google Chrome 16.0.912.63 beta-m (the latest beta version) on Windows 7. Even after logging off and logging back on, the portal sidebar still asks me to log in to access the widget. I have even tried this in an incognito browser (so that all the cookies are cleared), but it still won't show content after logging in.
At the top right, the Google +1 text isn't a hyperlink, whereas all the other links next to it (FB, twitter, YT) have clickable text. Seems inconsistent.

Yea, same here. it's not even clickable.
EDIT: log out and back in, as it says in the article.
EDIT 2: Nope, still doesn't work.
I think an improvement would be to remove the featured/popular posts thing. This may be me, but it looks a little too much like engadget now.

Links are fixed.
Regarding the widget...try logging out, clearing browser cache, logging in. Once it works, it works. Or so it has been for me.

Google text still not hyperlinked for me.
Tried logging out, wiping cache and logging back in. Widget still doesn't work. This is in Chrome / W7 x64.
Also tried on IE, which I have never used for xda, so it's a fresh start. Logged in, widget still doesn't work.
On IE9, I also get this gap on the right above the ad:
http://i.imgur.com/LypIE.jpg (a little too big to display here)
Another one (sorry )...
The Twitter, Facebook and Google+ links at the bottom of each post on the main portal page are just images. They're not linked to anything.
And when viewing an individual article, Google+ is missing completely from the bottom of the post.
Chrome 16 / Win7 x64 and verified on IE9.
Want more?
On the main Portal page, clicking on "xx comments" for any of the articles only takes you to the article itself, and doesn't take you directly to the comments section of the article, as it should.

1. same here, and the "log in" on the widget looks like it is supposed to be hyperlink but isnt.
2. and when loading site, when NOT logged in, there used to be a nice message to "non members" to check out and join the "world famous forums" and make sure to check out the "XDA New User Guide" that was written by some A-hole xda member.... oh wait that was me....

this WORKS fine for me on the ones i tried, make sure the link has /#comments BROKEN LINKS (top 2 posts) are /#respond
but tweet/+1/fb arent hyperlinked as posted above,
I get the feeling there are some very inconsistant rendering results.
The first time i logged on all i saw was adverts, there maybe the same number but they where much more in your face and apeared larger, it really did look terrible which might explain some of the comments you've had
I then reset my IE9 settings an i now cant comment on any portal posts, just doesnt let me type any more screen is there, all the buttons etc but it wont physically let me type, very odd. but on the plus side the adverts seem to have shrunk a bit. However there are some large gaps, namely below the widget that also doesnt work
There are 5 adverts on the portal, and although they appear larger and more in your face its not as bad as it was the first time i loaded the website and before i reset my browser, which to be fair, i shouldnt need to do. However when you click on the comments button for the article it brings up the list of comments and comments box (which i cant use) but also a couple of adverts right next to each other, that looks terrible, ill see if i can get a pic
oh, you might want to change the first article in the portal, the one with the pic of the new portal, your looking at the new portal, so you see what the pic is showing, except its like picture in picture, which might be a reason some folk think it looks messy, sounds silly, but youd be surprised how our minds work
oh an finally, will the new buttons frame be consistant through XDA, looks better if the buttons stay the same on all pages.

Yes, they do not work.
I've tried clicking the hyperlinks using Chrome, IE, and Firefox.
Those links are just images.

The widget doesn't work here, either.
Also, I clicked on the "Galaxy S and Galaxy Tab Will Probably Get ICS" article at the top of the page but it is taking me to the HTC unlocked bootloaders article.
EDIT: Could you also space out the links to Forums, XDA TV, WIKI, Device DB, etc? They look a little too cramped.
Google Chrome 16 (with Adblocker installed) and Windows 7 (64 bit).
I think it's too much white, where is the yellow-brown XDA theme.
Same pb widget login/ social button
BTW Maybe the Donation page need a refresh too : http://forum.xda-developers.com/donations.php
Am logged in on the forums, but i cant use the widget ? say i need to login ??

same problem here ... i suppose since the latest chrome v 23 update ... but some threads are working, some not ...
I have an other problem with Chrome and XDA (Windows).
Whenever I close Chrome and restart it, I'm logged out at XDA, although I check "Remember Me".
This is pretty annoying.
Maybe someone has an idea what I can do, I have this problem only on XDA.

No problems here, using Chrome Version 23.0.1271.64 m
I face the issues described here when I use Firefox 16.0.2 on Windows 7 (32 or 64 bit doesn't matter, same problem on two different PC's). The forum will reload the page over and over and over again until I deny to run scripts using NoSript for xda-developers.com. Using Google Chrome (23.0.1271.64m) there is not a problem.
Edit: Now Chrome starts to reload the forum pages over and over again, too.
The others are talking about desktop, not mobile. There is no App for those.

Same issue with Firefox and No Script on windows. I'd be interested in what is causing it if you find out. Likewise, I am enabling and disabling the MANY ad and tracker scripts running on this site.
A fresh profile of Chrome sorted this.No idea how.Same add-ons.

Whenever I hit the back key on my mouse on XDA in Chrome I go back two pages instead of one. Very frustrating. Does not seem to happen in Firefox.
My default browser is Firefox and I have none of the mentioned problems. On Chrome however the pages reload over and over again, just like described here.
Same problem here... Attachment loaded but UI messed up... And I couldn't add smilies... -_-
Happen on mozilla firefox too...
I have issues while using. Xda in browsers too,
But only in my home,
I cant even use the 2013 theme it gets garbled up
In my gf's place everythings fine,
I think it's your ISP, DNS, or browser extentions that is causing the problem

i've chrome and the page has automatic reload
i use ghostery, adblock and wot
Every time I come to XDA I have to sign in. This is the only page it happens to. (except the secure pages like banks and credit cards and such) But facebook, android forums and other chat sites work fine. How can I stop this. And yes, the box is checked to keep me signed in.
make sure ur browser has no setting to autoclear cookies (i dun know it has something to do wid cookies or not )
also try a different xda theme before u log in (i use xda 2013 1024)
also try a different browser
if they dun work.. jst dun blame me i tried

I think it has to do something with cookies. I set my browser (Firefox) to delete cookies after each session. If I close the browser and get to the site, I have to login again.
If I quit the firefox process using the task manager on Linux, I am signed in.

I use Chrome, I don't remember making changes, but that might have happened over the last upgrade. So I made a few changes myself, and I will see if that helps. But thanks for the idea's.
Am using chrome here too and it also happens with me
Will try the suggestions though

Funny, I got here fine. But if I use my bookmark, I will have to logon again. I think it has to do with Chrome.

ha same here
i bookmarked it as well
Same on aosp browser using bookmark.
What's weird is if I open a link in a new window once I'm on xda, that page will be signed in, or after a few pages.
I created new bookmarks but it's the same.
Well, the problem has seem to go away. At least for the last couple days.
Not for me, problem is still here, tried deleting cookies etc.

Hello. Newbie here. Sometimes I'm signed in when I load the forum page, but many times I'm not. It seems to me that it occurs when some time passes, but I'm not quite sure yet.
I have the same problem. It would reguide me to http://forum.xda-developers.com/index.php?nocache=1 after I logged in.
Same problem here. On chrome too.
Have XDA in my bookmarks bar and every time I click it, I will be logged out although I checked remember me on my previous login. Only happens with XDA, not with any other site. However, I dont have to always log back in again, if I flick through the website, on most threads it will show me as logged in but sometimes on some pages it will show me as logged out.
Strange
I am having this same exact problem. I can replicate it on multiple computers. Very annoying!
I have some tab groups that I had to recreate as none came over with the 4XL transfer. Now when I click the + to add a group or if I am in a group and click the + to add a tab it just jumps to the main Chrome page with no tabs and a link in the upper right to go to the tab groups. Is there a setting I'm missing?
Damn! Why doesn't Chrome for Android have a search field in the Settings like Chrome for the PC does? I know it's a more limited version of Chrome, technically, and therefore fewer settings, but still! I'm not finding anything, although I haven't checked Chrome flags.
I just tested and I was able to add a new tab to an existing group I have.
I was able to create a new group and add new random tabs to the group as well.
I know I could before as I had recreate the ones I have now but it will no longer let me. I did reboot the phone but maybe I need to reboot or reset the Chrome app?
New tabs work, but I'm on Chrome Beta...
I did manually check for app updates earlier - no idea if Chrome updated at that time or not but I don't think so. I'm on regular Chrome. Settings / About says 95.0.4638.74.

I have the same version.
Nevermind, it goes to the generic Chrome page and then when you click a link or enter a site it takes you back to the group with a new tab. Was it always this way? I don't add tabs often.

Ah. Not sure, I only rarely use tab groups, and it's impossible for me to stay on top of the latest Google changes. I think they enjoy Gaslighting us. Glad it works for you!
They are always messing with me. Like at one point in the text app it removed the add a pic icon after start typing or something and I spent like an hour trying to find out why I could not add a pic.
