I'm having the most random issue no matter the ROM. On LTE I usually hit 40mbp/s down and 15mbp/s up and every single app uses this just fine...except for Facebook. I have to use WiFi for Facebook otherwise only about %25 of whatever page I'm on loads. The WiFi in the house is 3/1.5 so nowhere near as fast as LTE. I've installed a few different ROMs, tried uninstalling and reinstalling Facebook to no avail. Any ideas?

I think it's Facebook I have had the same problem also with you tube but it's alittle better now
stripped apart rebuilt with Clean Rom&XdaTechnology!!!
I am having this exact same issue. Facebook only works on WiFi. If I am on 4G I get tons of authentication issues. Only half of my news feed and profile will load on 4G. I have used Odin and went back to stock, uninstalled/reinstalled Facebook, and tried different radios. I called Verizon about this and they have no idea what is wrong. They are supposed to send the issue to the network team and then call me back.
I did notice that Facebook thinks I am in Cheyenne, WY instead of Pittsburgh, Pa. If you log into Facebook on a computer you can look at your active sessions. It shows devices and locations. If I log in while on WiFi it reports that I am in Pittsburgh.
This is a very bizarre issue. Does anyone have any ideas as to what could be causing the issue? It seems like a network issue to me.

Tinfoil for Facebook works fine, give it a shot.

I've got no issue with Facebook working over LTE/ mobile data. Maybe its an issue with the service in your area? If you haven't maybe try clearing the apps cache/data and relog back in
** well I reread and it seems like uninstalling reinstall should do the same thing so no idea other than it being your area mine works fine (version 2.1)

Unfortunately that did not work. I am leaning towards a network issue on the vzw side of things since it works fine on WiFi. Thanks though!

Honestly, the FB app is utter garbage and drains battery like no other. It's gotten a tad better recently, but your best bet is likely just going to http://m.facebook.com

Anyone else noticing the data symbol (h+) staying on even when connected to wifi?
Just curious... I'm running infused 1.4

I'm able to hide it again by putting it in airplane mode and then back, but it's not ideal
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using XDA App
itll sometimes reconnect to data. not sure whats making it do that but its not actually transmitting. dunno.
Probably because it is still connected to the network, att needs to keep tabs on you. Plus your calls/text are never coming over wifi (going into airplane mode means you don't get those)
Mine will pop up here and there but I'm guessing it's just checking syncs in the background. I do use the att address book. My data symbol doesn't stay on though when on wifi.

Mine does go back to hiding. Not sure why yours isn't unless you have some odd app that's keeping it open.
Mine does this as well. While I'm on wifi the h+ will come on and sometimes go away, but sometimes it stays on the screen. It doesn't seem to affect anything so I don't worry about it.
Just curious, are you sending or receiving any MMS msgs when this is going on?

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.

FriendCaster Pro is much better than the Facebook app.

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.

This worked perfect Thanks!
When I use the search button on my phone lately(past week or so) it's asking me to full out one of those capta things where you just type a word in a box. It's getting very annoying. From the same page it says this:
" Our systems have detected unusual traffic from your computer network. This page checks to see if it's really you sending the requests, and not a robot."
Anyone else getting this? I dont use this feature enough to cause this, maybe I'm being hacked?

Same here. Google shows that it thinks I am a bot. Says that they have detected bot-like activity from my IP addrss. Happens anytime I'm not on WIFI.
Same with me, nobody knows what's up???
What browser is everyone using, and what is the user agent set to?
For me it happens only if the stock browser searches, for example if I hit search button, our search via address bar in stock browser. Doesn't happen when I go to google.com and search from the page.
Btw, I'm on fusionV rom, what about you guys? It wasnt doing it till recently, and I've been on the rom for some time, I don't think it's rom related.

On KI2 and have been getting it for a few days now, but only when using the quick search options. If I open the browser and hit google.com, it works fine. Really a PITA when I'm trying to use the voice search...
I am on Fasty 2.5 (2.2 kb1) and this started for me a couple days ago too. Only when not on WiFi and I use the search widget. I am glad I am not the only one.
Geeve
I had that happen this past weekend on stock AT&T 2.2, so I doubt it matters what ROM you're on.

I can't check this right now, since at work I get no data anyway, but I already installed Fast for FB as an alternate, and ready to test this out. If it works that would be great, the data dropping in killing me.
I did the same thing. I noticed my data crashed repeatedly while in the Facebook app. Uninstalled, created a homescreen shortcut to the website. Works beautifully.
Just did it, and it seems to be much better, thanks. Installed Fast for FB as my FB app.
I don't even have FB installed and had data drops.

The Facebook App, or the Facebook website through the browser? In my case, I've had an issue with both. I have since given up on the Facebook app all together and just use a bookmark to the Facebook page. Anytime I would get the browser blank-white page, I would force-close the browser app and log back in. Typically would do the trick.

I have simple needs, and one of them is Facebook. Call it an addiction but I would like to be able to access my account whenever I please.
Lately I cannot load Facebook (pic very much related). It won't work on Chrome or the default browser. Friendcaster loads partially but is flakey on most.
Anyone else ever had this problem, or know how to fix it.
It works fine on computers in my house. But not on my phone with wifi or 3G
I'm starting to get the shakes guys

You just answered your own question. Depending on your signal (or internet speed), facebook does or doesn't work. Facebook works fine for me on both WiFi and 4G.
Check your internet provider and see what's going on with your WiFi. Either that or just reset your router and try again.
As for 3G, unless you're rocking past 800kbps, then it won't work well.
Last choice, go wipe data in the Facebook app.
