[Q] Facebook drains my battery?! - Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey,
my facebookapp uses more battery than all other apps together, the screenshots are from today, and shows the batterydrain during the night --> no use
does anyone else has the same problem??

How often do you have Facebook set to sync? Make it less often and battery use will go down.

Go to recovery and fix permissions.
Or u can uninstall it. Go to recovery, clear chace and dalvick. And try install the oldest version or downgrade. Currently on v1.5.4.
U can install fb ver 1.5.2 or 1.5.3
Hope u find something and fix ur problem. Don't bother due to facebook still buggy.

[Q] No YouTube

My Nexus S is on 2.3.3 and I wiped everything on it so I can start fresh again. For some odd reason my YouTube doesn't work anymore. I see the app under manage apps & "all" but does not have an icon in my app drawer. Anyone have any idea how to resolve this?
Uninstall it and then re-download it from the market.

It doesn't even give me an option to. Under market and YouTube, I see the "Open" icon but its not highlighted. It won't let me open through there. You think downloading the same version of it and trying to install it would work?
Go to manage apps and then go to YouTube and uninstall from there.

Doesn't give me an option in there either. Nothing is lite up for me to do anything except for clear cache.

Please post compatible appls that work on g2x
Currently installed weather/clock widget and confirm working
Also lg memo widget apk,and lg calendar widget also working
I'm using the LG Weather/Clock Widget that I used on my Nexus One. Works well. '
Of all the stuff that was available, that was the only thing that tickled my fancy.
havent tried any yet, but merely a suggestion for this thread... how about providing links to lg apps that are confirmed working, turn this into a one stop shop for people
Where can I get that lg weather widget. And can I use it even if I'm not rooted? Thanks

You should definitely put all of your links/attachments in the OP so people don't have to go looking around for them

No. Extract the .pak files from the zips. Transfer them over to your phone via USB and use a file explorer program to install the apks.
or
use http://www.androidcentral.com/sideload-android-apps-all-you-want-sideload-wonder-machine to sideload the apps
Downloaded some of the .apk files straight to my phone... the only one that doesn't work correctly would be the calendar widget... when I click on the day it goes to the first of the month *__*

would the keyboard work, or would it need some lib files added and such??? I hate trying to get the right spot on the text field with just my fingers, would like the "bump the side of the phone" option.

try going to the phones main settings, applications, manage applications, all, browser.. now press clear data and clear cache. try opening the browser again.
You can try going to the home screen -> click menu button -> Manage apps -> Click the All tab -> scroll to Browser (or whatever browser she uses) -> click that, then clear data.
That may cause her to lose bookmarks, etc.

You have to disable notifications on the one you don't want to see notifications from. This is not the best explanation, but it's as if your messages get sent to one location where any message app can read them. Essentially, both apps are still looking for notifications, therefore, notifying you twice.
I have look

He's not talking about double notifications. He's talking about incoming messages showing up twice INSIDE of the app.
Here's an example

Yeah thats what I mean ... I was going to post an attachment but it had my phone number showing
I can confirm this problem as well. It seems I cannot uninstall the default messaging app either.

Wow, i see what you mean. That does suck. I was responding to this but decided to test for myself.
I've been using Go SMS since I got the phone last tuesday and I never had the issue. I installed Handcent and tested (now I have stock, go SMS and handcent). The very first message I sent to myself from my wife's phone I got double messages as you experienced. I sent myself five more and I did not received any more doubles. Not sure what it is, but this was the first and hopefully last time I'll see this.
Did you uninstall all the third party messaging apps and test to see if the issue goes away?

Yeah I have unistalled all the message apps and stock and other message apps work fine just the ics message app its not working for me. Even the one that are in the market do the same thing
You can use Titanium Backup to freeze the default message apk. That seemed to fix the problem for me. Always backup the apk first!

Myfitnesspal crash on camera

Whenever I try to use the barcode scanner in the myfitnesspal app, the scanner crashes. The scanner crashes when it tries to auto focus, then goes back to the fitness app.
I'm using cm9 RC2
Anyone know of a way to fix this or report the bug?

No luck. Oh well, I'll just hope for the fix in a newer release. Some people with Transformers have the same issue. This never happened with stock sense 3.6

Now I have a logcat!
Fixed with the CM10 beta, must be something having to do with the way Jelly Bean handles the camera.
