[Q] Facebook Widget not updating

Hi Guys,
I may not be the only one in this situation so maybe someone found an answer to this.
I've recently upgraded to an HTC One X (Super amazing phone) from an Android converted HD2(brilliant phone).
The only problem I've noticed is that the Facebook widget does not update on my new One X as when i turn on my HD2 works perfectly and updates as it should. I can still see updates from days ago but when i go into the actual app i can clearly see status updates etc.
Anyone having the same problem? Is there any way to resolve it?
I apologize if this issue has been raised somewhere else on the forum.
Thanks

Am I the only one with this problem???

apparently so..is facebook the only widget that does not updates itself?

Looks that way...

Mine's not working either on my Sensation - worked for a day or so and now just shows the same update - app itself works fine

Dunno about Facebook, but the Twitter widget only updates when told to. Also, I'm trying to find out why Facebook and FB Messenger don't send me notifications.

I have the same problem with mine, but when using any non-HTC widget. For example, I use a couple Beautiful Widgets (the clock and the battery status) and both of them just get stuck after a while. A reset resolves it for a while, sometimes a day or more and sometimes only for a few hours but eventually the clock and the battery indicator just get stuck. I have tried other clocks and battery indicator widgets and they too get stuck, so does the stock google calendar widget. It seems like it might be a problem with sense.

I tried to use my friendstream widget to update my FB and Twitter profiles twice yesterday, it just didn't do anything at all... I had to go into each App and update from there, then later in the afternoon it worked fine...
Buggy I guess?

I'm not sure if this helps the facebook widget, but I have tried clearing the data and re-setting the widget up. Seems to keep things going for a good while.

Same problem. No issues on Nexus and had similar problem on Sensation so pretty sure it has something to do with Sense

mine is not working either. facebook, friends widget, etc. slow and must be done manually

I think it's something to do with processes in the background, whilst Twitter seems to actively update for me, Facebook doesn't. I always close Facebook because it eats battery like a fat kid in a donut shop. Facebook for HTC Sense doesn't exist anymore, what updates in the Facebook app's news feed is what you see in Friend Stream and they update at the same frequency.

I'm the same on my HOX . My Fb widget hasn't updated for a week. The app itself is fine. This behaviour is no different from when i had my Desire! I've tried many widgets but it's the functionality of the official widget I want.

Solved for me
Was having this problem with any non-HTC widget, including a battery widget, the google calendar widget, the beautiful clock/weather widget among them. What seems to work is unchcking the "Fast boot" option in the power settings. I did this yesterday and my widgets haven't stopped now for almost 24 hours.

That's the first thing I turn off and yet the Facebook widget will not update unless I reboot the phone

Has anyone found a solution to this? Can it be that Sense is acting up as usual and because of sense our widgets are not updating as they should?

chrome blank screen

Anyone noticed with chrome that occasionally the tab becomes 'stuck' and stays blank regardless of what site (or even bookmarks) you bring up.
Workaround is easy, open a new tab, presto.
But annoying, wondering if anyone seen this and/or come up with a fix.
This happened on stock 1.28, 1.29, now ARHD 7.1 (2.05 base) so I'm pretty sure its not caused by custom ROM.

i have it too

Yea happened to me too but it only started when I started to use viper. The problem wasn't present during the Pokemon days

Yep happens to me on stock, really annoying when viewing content heavy pages, keeping me on Firefox and the stock browser currently
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium

yeah thinking of going back to stock browser until this is fixed!

Same happened to me on my one x as well. Just random blank pages... super annoying but just need to reload a new tab...
Doesn't happen on stock.

Im on the stock browser. This used to happen to me but since the chrome update, its gotten better.

It's got better since the update but this never use to happen when I was using my galaxy s 1.
On stock rom

Yes! Had enough and just reported bug today then coincidentally I see this.
One X to rule them all

Noticed it first time 2 updates ago, getting stuck at blank screen, especially on heavy pages with lot of pictures. Firefox better?

I get this with chrome on my galaxy tab too... Not sure it's anything to do with the One X. Don't think it used to happen with chrome beta so think it's due to some dodgy update.

I get this problem on my one x. It doesn't seem to do it with web pages but occasionally it'll stay blank when I try and open my bookmarks. The only way round it is to close that tab and open a new one. Hope they fix this soon

I'm getting this issue also. Using ICS Browser+ until it's fixed!

It's an issue which is addressed in the Known Issues list of Chrome for Android:
Pages are blank, distorted, or flickering on my HTC One V, HTC One X, HTC Amaze 4G, HTC Sensation XL, and Huawei MediaPad.
This is a known issue with the graphics driver on specific devices. We have reported this issue to hardware manufacturers and software vendors and are working to fix it. As a workaround, try rotating your device or refreshing the page to resolve temporary rendering issues.

So... I guess it's up to HTC to resolve this, hopefully in their next update.
Source (I can't post the full url because of my post count, delete the space after http: when copying please):

(Select "Site Display Issues" and then "Pages are blank, distorted, or flickering on my HTC One V, HTC One X, HTC Amaze 4G, HTC Sensation XL, and Huawei MediaPad.")

Yet another reason my next phone will be a Nexus

Same here. They have implemented many good features and I love Crome user experience, but the blank pages are so anoying.
I have had it so bad that even a new tab does not resovle the issue and I am forced to use stock browse. I got all stock.

happens on my nexus 7 as well it's not just confined to the one X.

Chrome-dome
Yeah I get this issue too... It's a bugger!
Hopefully it'll get resolved one day as I use Chrome as my main browser, I like the stock browser as it's pretty nippy but can't seem to swing moving over to FF.

To fix this, you can also: Press home button, press (or hold recent apps button, bring up the recent apps screen, swipe away chrome to close it, reopen Chrome and all your pages will reload and work again.
Happens on the TF101 Asus Transformer too. Used to be all the time 1 month ago, now its only occasionally on both devices.

I can just open up a 2nd tab and move along. I don't have the issue every time but when I do get the blank tab I just open up another tab and then I can go.

[Q] Little Bit Of Help With My One X

Hi,
I got my One X last week and have been playing with it this week and one thing that annoys me is that when your on the internet and then open another tab and then go back to the first one it refshes and is very annoying when filling in a form or something.
Also it keeps coming up with Authorise HTC Sense - to authorisr faceboon and when I click it, it says turn on background sync but doesnt do anything as far as I know everything is logged in and ready but not sure.
Hope one if you guys can help
Thanks

Stock sense browser is rubbish, use third party browser like 'Dolphin Browser'

[APP] Watchify for SmartWatch 2

Just released my first SmartWatch 2 extension. Watchify let's you push all your notifications from your phone to your watch. Just check it out and let me know what you think - suggestions for improvement and bug reports are welcome!

Thanks! Since my stock Gmail extension does not work on my 4.3 phone I will test this just on Gmail notifications. It will be interesting to see how well it works versus my current approach of gmail to k9 to k9 extension.

It is also not compatible with my phone (Alcatel one touch scribe HD),but the screenshots lool very good. Could you add more devices to the compatibility list?

Thanks! Great application!
One question... in whatsapp notifications, can I activate only message notifications and disable group notifications?

Good app. I like the possibility to delete the notification from smartwatch. I noticed that this app use a Lot of ram than other smartwatch notification app. Can you Fix it?

Great to have more variety! I'm currently using 'Augmented Smartwatch Pro' and 'Watchit' but both have things I don't like so I'm happy to see another rival
I'd like to see Extended notifications for more apps, especially for 'Notify My Android' since this is one of my main uses for the SW2. Currently WatchIt and Watchify trim the text from 'Notify My Android' notifications.
I'll be happy to pay a reasonable price for this app if it turns out to be the best of the three!

Gmail extended notification is not working for Note 2 with android 4.3... No notification was pushed to SW2.

If whatsapp emoticon can be displayed on SW2 instead of '???', then it's perfect! :good:

it seem nice but google telling me it's not compatible with my phone ;(
and can't downloading with apk-downloader either.
is it possibly to download it with out using of the play store?

nice app, for this to replace the stock notifications apps i would need at least whatsapp, facebook, gmail and twitte
but both facebook and twitter would require a filter so i can select what people i get updates/messages from

Doesn't seem to work on Note 3 either, although I didn't give it longer than about a minute to arrive as I only needed to know if it was slower than the normal gmail notifier. If it was as quick I would have given it a chance for the ability to dismiss things from the watch.
After installing this addon I suddenly realised that the ONLY notifications I ever use are SMS and GMail, so its not essential for me right now. I will keep an eye on it though as no doubt my expectation will change as I get used to having the watch.
Incidentally, how hard is it to write extensions, bearing in mind I know nothing about Android programming at this point?

This app is incompatible with all of your devices.

There is a problem with multiple whatsapp messages. If i receive 2 whatsapp messages in the same time i Can See only the first.
Another question. Possibility to add the possibility to reply?

issues since update to Android 7

Just seeing if anybody else has been experiencing any issues since the update to Android 7
Some of the issues I've seen.
1. When trying to update apps and I load another app, the play store will freeze (notification screen will say play store is not responding)
2. When I have multiple apps open, the recent apps button seems to hit or miss if it actually wants too display anything
3. When using the facebook app and I press the recent apps button, I get the split screen, but the face book news feed goes blank

1) tried a few times, no freeze
2) works like a charm here, 30+ open apps, task switcher is instantly there & double tap to quick switch between apps is working flawlessly..
3) cant test, no facebook account
Cheers

No issues here. Thing has been smooth.
Facebook even works fine in split screen

No issues noted on my end, Facebook shows up normally, although it does give the warning that it may not work properly in split screen.

For point 1, try sideloading the latest Play Store and Google Play Services APKs.
For points 2 and 3, these seem like they might be Nougat issues, and not HTC 10 issues. Try a google search and see if you find anything.

No issues at all either. Ran perfect the few days I had it in my phone.

I've been having a few issues since the update too. The stock weather clock doesn't seem to work on apex launcher. Haven't tried it on any other launcher yet, but it works fine on the sense launcher. I also haven't been getting notifications right away for gmail and some other apps. It might be some overly aggressive power saving. I noticed those particular apps are completely closed and gone from the recent apps drawer after a while and I get the notifications when I open them manually. Going to try turn off power saver for a day and see if it does anything

Did you dirty flash? If so then full wipe and avoid restoring apps until you can verify that the rom works as expected..
Let us know how you get on

My concern is signal ,is very bad after update and the download speed is Lower than any other phone ,even Lower than axon 7, I did a speed test in the same spot and axon 7 got double the speed than HTC 10

I too love the m8. A beast. The 10 is a worthy successor. And i personally prefer it more to the other flagships as well. The only ups are that it has a fingerprint scanner, way better camera and the high res audio. You won't feel much difference in the perfomance if running normal apps. So if you want these things, go for it else flash CM 14.1 in your M8. I too have flashed cm14.1 and everything has improved.
I hope you have got the answer to your question.

I think so, thanks. I mainly love the smoothness, the sound volume of the speakers and the sound quality of the headphones (my last smartphones were Samsung and they sucked on those departments) on my m8 but I've read that the speakers sound better on a quite ambient (more bassy) and the headphone quality is even better, is that true?

The audio coming from the 10 is absolutely terrific. One can also create certain audio profiles and once you get the hang of it, you will be amazed to see the power of this device in the music section.

The m8 is the only phone I didn't own and the one x in the htc flagship line up.. I've had the rest and I've use the two I didn't own.. The 10 at this moment in time is the best phone thet is.. There isn't anything to argue with it.. A change in OS maybe but a better phone, for me there is none.

I had the same exact devices as you and the International One X, and Sprint Evo 4G LTE before those and I am loving everything about the HTC 10! The Nougat update allows you to disable the standing notifications in your notification drawer and a couple of status bar icons. You can also add a few quick toggles and that is Nougat stock...I am going to clean up my SD card and flash ViperROM because I have run it on all of the HTC devices I have owned and it always works great for me!

It's a Sense based ROM but has the BEST and most customization options like status bar brightness slider, horizontal tenable quick toggles, also vertical quick toggles, custom theming, a whole Venom Hub full of add ons and more but it absolutely stays true to Sense...unless it still has the "De-Sense" option in the Aroma installer options
