Hi,
I have always hated the official app from facebook as it is slow and buggy at times.
Came to know about Atrium app created by a XDA member, installed it and have been using it for few hours now, must say it is a great app for FB users.
U can try the same from here : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.radiantbits.atrium

Have you tried the dark themed version of FB app? Its called Black Facebook.. Its themed pretty well and works good too.. I got it from justunbean's inverted apps package.. Theres one for instagram and dropbox too.

UPDATE 10/24 -
members posting here on XDA have turned me to an even better Facebook app..
Friendcaster

All the features of stock Facebook app and then some.. theming and easier navigation, better notifications.. definitely worth checking out!

Stumbled upon this searching the forums. I tried it out and so far so good.
"Fast for Facebook" is an app started by an XDA member and it has a couple different themes. It has most of the features the official Facebook app has but the major benefit is battery saving with background processes not running constantly.

I downloaded this app many months ago but at that time many features were missing. It seems like there's been a lot of progress so I'll give it another shot. I didn't know someone from XDA made it.

Yeah I ended uninstalling after a day of use. It has made a lot of progress but still not worth replacing the original FB app.

There has been a ton of progress to the app. I thoroughly hated it months ago but now it stands as a decent competitor to the official app. The only real thing I don't like is no push notifications, but I check FB often enough for that not to matter.

try flipster..i ve been using it for a while and its quite good. no frills approach to fb
I recently tried Fast and Flipster, and quickly started getting a bunch of spam email from random Yahoo email addresses, spoofed with the names of my Facebook friends.
Maybe just a coincidence, but seemed pretty fishy to me.

Nice! I just uninstall the Official FB app for Flipster. Works great reminds me of Plume for Twitter.
I've been using Friendcaster for about a month and its been solid, I like built in theme chooser.

I've been running it for about 6 months, I guess from Gingerbread to Jellybean, and it's worked fine. I like how it shows the posts more than my computer browser.
Every once in a while it'll do something weird...but so do I

Wow, any chance this will work on tablets?
Answering my own question, clearly, this is for phones only. It isn't anywhere near optimised for tablets. Just tried on my SGT 7.7. Phones only.

I think most picture resizer apps will integrate via the share button and thus will let you save the image, even without resizing. That's what I used to do.

I am using Atrium. What is your favorite? It's a lot less laggy than the official facebook.
I was looking for an alternative app to facebook last week, and now I am using Klyph. Great design, so far it works, no bugs so far.
I just started using it. What's a better twitter app?

The official app is too heavy.
Now i try Fast and Atrium

Tweedle is great
Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
stock facebook app is fine
falcon or robird for twitter
What's wrong with the stock one? I use Tweedle for Twitter, love it.
Personally, I use the official apps for both FB and Twitter. They both do exactly what I need them to do
My vote is for Friendcaster, even though I haven't used the official app for years now.
I like the layout and features. Especially like the built in high resolution contact pictures sync so I don't have to use another third party app to replicate this.
Is there a blacked out Facebook like carbon for twitter?

Team Black Out has a blacked out official Facebook.
Facebook through Dolphin browser works fine for me. No app! Loads fast and auto wraps.

Fast for Facebook has a few colors one is black. Its a great app.
Stock for both Facebook and Twitter. Stock Facebook could look better, but stock twitter is perfect for me.
