I have a problem with the facebook app on my phone. When I launch the app, it says "an error ocurred wile loading the page". Has anyone experienced this problem? My phone is has s-off , rooted and i'm still on the stock rom. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the app, but the problem keeps ocurring. What could it be?

the facebook app is trash, you need to just delete it lol.. non sarcasm
I would rather use the fb app than have to go through a browser though.

try using seismic or even the friendstream app.. i heard alot of people are using friendcaster.. but any of thoes are better then the official app. personally i love seismic
if ur really wanting to stay wtih the official app, then i'd say look for the apk of facebook 1.5.4. alot better then the newest facebook but alot more bland, which makes it more powerful lol
Any help? I already did a hard reset and I still get same result

Is everyone getting the force close?
I'm not sure if there is a particular issue you are talking about. I haven't had any force closes with facebook recently. What exactly are you doing when it happens?
Try clearing the app data/cache for Facebook in Manage Applications under settings.
Working fine here on gtg's Rom.
Ever since the update on the market it has been on my evo and inspire.

which Facebook are you using first of all (?)
Facebook for HTC sense doesnt seem to work right for me. (issues loading refreshed views... i get 3 mo old status updates)
facebook ap in the marketplace version 1.5.0 works fine for me but has no video upload capabilities.
facebook for touch does not work properly for me, not sure where i found this one but i cant get it to work right.
Hope that helps, goodluck.
I've been experienceing force closes with facebook version 1.5.3 on cm7 latest nightly. I had also experneiced them with the Inspired Saga ROM aswell. They are pretty random as i can't seem to reproduce them. So i was also thinking its app related.
I use flow and go chat

So much for XDA's auto search before creating a thread. :/
Anyone having issues today where the Facebook app takes you to the mobile page? I've even rebooted the phone and same problem..the app simply takes you to the browser and the mobile page.
I have the same problem, it's irritating as hell! I can't even get to the main menu, it goes right to the mobile site.
oh god i was about to slam my phone on the floor. i thought it was mine.
I've uninstalled the last updates...but that basically puts the "stock" Facebook app back in place that the Infuse came with...it works though...
i cleared the data and it worked for a while then went back to the same thing... OPTIMUS PRIME DISAPPROVES
I'm sure this has to do with facebook and their shenanigans with changing the API so much...
I uninstalled the app, then reinstalled it. It's been working as it should for about an hour now.
Edit: Scratch that. I spoke too soon. Going right to the mobile web version once again. Even that is acting weird.

I had been having some serious lag issues on my phone, mainly in the launcher(s)...since I removed the Facebook updates and went back to the stock one, lag seems to be gone..not 100% sure that was the cause but I like it right now!
FriendCaster Pro is much better than the Facebook app.
Sent from my Infuse 4G
same issue with fb
I wonder if this is related to the rampant app autoblocking that Facebook started yesterday? More collateral damage?
It might resolve itself later today - I know my photos uploaded by KDE KIPI (another victim of the rampant autoblocking) are back.

Friend Caster Pro. Doesnt do that. Works better then the official app.

Hi all of you ! just go to settings, applications, manage applications, go to facebook app and push clear data. Works on my captivate.

This worked perfect Thanks!
Does anyone else share in my frustration?
Often, I am notified to link contacts between my People list and my Facebook (official app) contacts as well as my Whatsapp contacts. This happens at least once a week, and at times, every other day.
I'll go into the Facebook app and all of the sudden will need to enter my password again. Within the hour, I'm notified of Facebook contacts that could potentially be linked with my people list. I link them all then save. You'd think that would be it, right? A couple days later, same password prompt, same contact link suggestions. The same thing occurs for Whatsapp, too. Both occur update app from the Play market or not and on stock and MikTouch 0.7.
It's a minor inconvenience but so annoying, as it seems like it's never really saving the link. Anyone else seeing this?

I remember months ago the facebook app threw phones into a constant sync, they would never stop syncing and never actually do so.
I don't use facebook, but had to troubleshoot for a user of my rom.
Facebook app is the most worthlessly coded POS app I've ever crawled through the code of, it makes little sense and has less coherency.
Using the app means subjecting yourself to it's problems, sorry for your troubles.

Hi looking for any suggestions on what to do to fix the facebook app on an LG Viper (I know, not a common phone for these forums, its for my girlfriend). The app opens half the time to a blank white screen. When it does work, it's fine at first but as soon as you start scrolling, photos flicker and the app stops loading pictures. Phone is not rooted.
I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling several times, cleared the cache, not sure what else to try. Any advice would be helpful, thanks!
I suggest you search the web for diffrent versions of the app. (1.0/2...)

Yeah, as silly and as unhelpful as it may sound, just get a third party facebook app. The official one is a pile of crap, no matter what your device.

I usually use "Tinfoil for Facebook", basically just a wrapper around the mobile site. Tried friendcaster but didn't like how it worked. Sorry I can't help more.

If you don't like the facebook app, why won't you try Tweetdeck it's a very good app with the abillity to add a Twitter account too.
It's fast and I use it most of the time. Although I still have the official facebook app on my phone too, but since i have a Samsung Galaxy it's running
smooth.
For those other devices (like my Tab) I use Tweetdeck.
Hope this is usefull for you!
