Facebook uploads - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is anybody else having trouble uploading pics to Facebook from their nexus 5? I thought it was APN settings and it wasn't...not even able to do it on WiFi....any ideas?

I had the same problem a few minutes ago. Had to reinstall.

Are you using ART or Dalvik Runtime. The newest update doesn't allow you to upload pics if you are using ART runtime. I switched back to Dalvik and it worked again, however I like ART a lot better so hopefully Facebook gets their $hit together and fixes it.

Unable to use Facebook on TB with latest app release

Now I am having this issue with my Thunderbolt with the latest FB update. On WIFI no issue, but no go on 4G, wifes HTC Rezound has no issues with the updated version either. This is very frustrating for sure. I have uninstalled the app, cleared cache, pulled battery, etc. I have reported to FB too, but wanted to see if others here are having same issues.
Here's what works for me, I NEVER use the facebook app, I delete it from my phone completely and log on to facebook mobile with my brower and then add it to my bookmarks.
Interestingly enough mine is actually working better than it has been in a while. The only issue I have is when my 4G flutters up and down. I am currently unrooted and stock as if my 4G keeps having this issue I am going to be doing some yelling down at Verizon.
Have you tried using another app like Friendcaster?
Remove, install older version from backup, disable auto update.
Backup often! Airdroid is the bom for that.

Are you rooted and using a ROM? Might be ROM related. I know this is the first time Facebook has worked for me this flawlessly.

Thanks for the replies, not rooted - i didn't have the back up so I'm SOL and will try friendcaster.
Is it legit for me to dropbox it and share?

Don't see why not as its not a paid app. So not like fb is losing money.

Chrome keeps auto sharing to Pocket with giving me choice?

If I set a default share app in another app, like twitter, Chrome will also use that as a default share app, not giving me a choice in the matter. Why this change?
Same issue here, but I haven't even chosen a default share app. I chose to share to gmail in my twitter app and now most apps are sharing automatically to gmail.

I don't have that issue...both of you mentioned twitter, that's probably to blame

It's still doing it even though I cleared defaults. I don't get it.

I'm having this problem too. Seems to be a bug with Android: https://code.google.com/p/android/i...nd&colspec=ID Type Status Owner Summary Stars
Yes, I have to keep clearing app defaults in settings, because chrome is remembering share settings from other apps for some reason and using it for itself, with no choice.
Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
Same here. Each time I try to share a page with chrome it opens "import to Google drive". The only way I found to get the share choices back is to deactivate Google drive

I'm having the same problem its just copying to clip board not giving me the share via menu at all. Same with the XDA app BTW.

Alright I fixed it. You need to go to Apps I. Settings and go to the 3 dot menu on top right and reset apps preferences like so. Yay!

No offence but you didn't fix anything..you just reset app prefs like most people know. There's still a bug, it just happens again...

That sucks I'm sorry it didn't work for you. Google needs to seed a fix soon too many pot holes in this build for the N5.

Had this problem too but clearing app defaults worked for me. For now anyhow..

Is there a way to set an app as the default option for sharing? I only want to share to Pocket in Chrome and Twitter etc. Is that possible?

Xda premium and nexus 5 compatability issue?

Seem to be having problems with the xda app whenever i try to start it up. Just get the spinning circle. End up having to come out if app and restart it before it ever loads. I've been flicking on android central app every now and then and it loads instantly with no issues.
Could this have anything to do with me being on the art runtime? Handset is stock unrooted other than art .
Thanks

No problem with XDA premium app.
Do not use ART...

I have problems with the XDA Premium app as well. Sometimes it won't load, sometimes certain threads won't load. Not sure what's causing it, I had similar problems on my Nexus 4.
I think the xda has been having intermittent issues with the tapatalk plug-in over the last week or so.
good day.
ART is experimental so that's why it's only a developer option right now. It's only natural for it to have issues so if you want a stable rom don't use it because all app devs just got onto developing for it. Tapatalk has been having a lot of issues for the past about 2 weeks. This is probably what you are referring to so just stand by while tapatalk and xda resolve the issue. It's become even more annoying these past few days.
im lucky to be able to connect to xda with tapatalk anymore. disabling art has improved that, thanks

slow loading for me at times, somethings up
The XDA app is Tapatalk. And it does occasionally have issues. Wiping the data for it seems to help.

I have this problem with the xda app with all my devices. It has nothing to do with ART, as the issues were present on 4.3.
The app just needs to be fixed. Plain and simple.

My issue is that it will jump a couple threads up when it loads more. Really annoying. Randomly crashes as well. I have it on my Nexus 5 and Nexus 7, both using art. The nexus 7 has none of these problems.

I'm on a replacement device (not using art ) and still same problem.
However as said before android central for me seems almost instant in comparison.

Anyone having Facebook photo upload problems?

Can't seem to upload photos to Facebook. Anyone else having issues?
Sent from my Nexus 5 using xda app-developers app
Are you using ART ? I couldn't upload photos then turned off ART and they upload fine now.
Sent from my Nexus 5 using xda app-developers app
When I first got the Nexus 5, the FB app would FC uploading a picture. It would start itself again, try to upload the picture again and FC. The cycle would go on until I cleared the app data. This was on the beta version of the FB app and I haven't tried again since. Is that the problem you're having?

I haven't been able to either since the app update before this one... I'll try turning off ART but it worked fine until the previous app version. Glad I found someone else having this problem.

From what I found out is the newest Facebook Update 4.0.0.3.3 broke the ability to upload pictures if you are using ART runtime. I have switched back to dalvik and it works fine, but I am back on ART now and I hope Facebook fixes this issue.

Wake lock detector problem

Just a few days ago the program wakes lock detector stopped showing the time correctly (see attached picture to understand)
Does anyone know what the problem is?

In all seriousness, I'm not sure what time we're supposed to looking at to help. I see some wake locks happening for a few seconds.
I guess I didn't explain myself well... It's a picture of my phone off charging for a few hours.... But if you look at the line above it says statistics 0s (even though the statistics themselves have some seconds) and the detailed statistics are totally off - Google calendar had 24 wake locks for 2 sec while Tasker is over 1000 but under 1 second... All my setting are constantly skewed and totally off...
Sent from my Nexus 5 using xda app-developers app
Is it a one time event or did this ashtrays happen. I use betterbatterystats and I have seen something similar, but it's always a time event and goes away next time i boot or plug the charger in.
It's been like this for almost a week. I've rebooted multiple times and deleted cache.

Sorry about the spell correction, lol. Damn ashtrays. I guess the only thing I would suggest would be to uninstall and then reinstall the app. I would have suggested clearing the cache but you're already done that.
Here's a screenshot of betterbatterystats with a few minutes of usage... It's totally empty and it definitely shouldn't be...

Hmm, both are for 4.4 KitKat? 4.4 made it more difficult to get the statistics and bbs wasn't working for awhile. The new version does work. Maybe Rom related?
It's neither... I've had this ROM for 2 weeks now without any real changes and it just stopped randomly...
Sent from my Nexus 5 using xda app-developers app
There must be something wrong with the phone or corrupt on the ROM... better battery stats is only showing one wake lock (nlpwakelock)... Grrr
Sent from my Nexus 5 using xda app-developers app
Thanks for all the help... In the end it's a ROM problem that a module in xposed can fix (except I'm on ART so I'm screwed).
Thanks for the help guys!
