Facebook 1.4: A non-crap update!

Get it while it's hot! Looks like they're finally stepping it up.
Edit: Also improved Facebook API so hopefully Facebook-integrated apps won't be so bad now!

so far it seems to be a good upgrade

downloading now... lets see how these god d*** notifications work...

still doesnt integrate fb chat, so sad.

if we actually use a sense rom this app is the most useless thing we can have on our phone if there is no chat feature on it... i mean really... even the iphone facebook app have chat... how lazy are they to not implement it to android... i dont get it.

How does having a Sense ROM make this useless? Other than contact integration and image uploading, what the hell does Facebook for HTC Sense do?

The notifications don't work for comments. That sucks. There is a app called f-plus that will give you notifications and Go Chat will take care of the fb chat.
I am sick of having 3 apps on my phone for the job that one app should be able to do.
On top of all that my post through the "official app" are not posting on the news feed. If anyone can chime in on that it would be very helpful.

still no chat and still can't poke! Among other things..The bottom line is If I have to open my browser to do anything then its a FAIL! Why have an app if I just need to open my browser at some point..
I just can't believe how they keep dropping the ball on this!

i can view comments from notification in the app so i am confused to as what is not working besides chat

Yes but it does not notify me on the notification bar if some one post on my wall

This to me is so stupid it's unfathomable. I would think this would be the absolute first thing this app would do...

you guys are trippin, the fact that I can reply to notifications within the app is all I need. facebook chat is a joke to me. B app for me for now. for an A app they will need instant notifications.

I tried downloading from the app store. It downloads completely and while installing it fails. It gives me an error saying it was unable to perform the install. I tried to uninstall the present version but the uninstall option is grayed out.
And also sometimes , the appstore takes a while to download. Sometimes I have to restart my fone in order for the phone to start downloading the apps.
Any help is appreciated.

I get notifications on cm6.
Sent from my supersonic yea....

I just wish you could tag photos with the app, my gf's iPhone can ... they just need to make the app on par to what the iPhone has already been able to do...

im ok with no chat since i dont use it, love that i dont have to use browser to reply to notifications, now if i could only edit uploaded photos(rotate) i would be satisfied.

Hmmm I don't like the single-sign-on feature because now all apps will have access to my account by just using FB API? not so good...

Still needs small improvement but they're stepping it up.

It will be listed in the app's permissions. Don't go downloading apps that you don't want to access your Facebook account.

If you're rooted, use Titanium Backup to uninstall the system copy of Facebook, reboot, then download the Market version.

how do I remove all of the annoying ads on Android

Hi all,
this is probably a very dumb question
but anyway, how do I remove all of the annoying ads from the free downloaded applications on my Android device
your answer are highly appreciated.
thanks

If you're phone is rooted you can try AdFree: https://play.google.com/store/apps/...DEsImNvbS5iaWd0aW5jYW4uYW5kcm9pZC5hZGZyZWUiXQ..
This is by far the most effective adblocking app.

I use AdAway from the Play Store, does the job for me. Any ad blocker will do though, as long as you're rooted.
Also, if the app doesn't require the Internet then you can turn the data connection off when using it. I used to do that with Angry Birds before I rooted my phone.
Press 'Thanks' if I helped!

use adaway.. it's simple and very user friendly.. Ads also annoy me, we share the same prob.. so glad if it could help you out..

Are these apps for free? I want to remove the annoying ads as well.

The ads are there to support developer.
If you really want to remove them, the easiest way is to use your phone offline whenever you are using the add supported app

yes, I know those ads are there to support the developers.
but, if I use my tablet offline, there's not much that I can do with it since a lot of apps require data plan to run

re:
The best ad blocker is ''AD Blocker Trial'' try it all, it's free on play store and doesn't require root acsses, that's simple ya...

Use a firewall (e.g. Droidwall), set filtering to "whitelist" and only allow those applications that really must have internet access. That will not only block ads but also prevent apps from phoning home other sensitive data. Of course, you need a rooted device for this.

Try Adfree friend.. you can download in play store!
i have try it

Some roms have it built in
Find a rom that has ad blocker already in the list of extras.

play store has removed ad removing apps?
Hmm, it looks like the ad removing apps are gone from the play store (which I guess I understand from googles point of view - they probably get a few pennies for these ads also).. Is there another place to get these? Amazon app store has "ad-blocker pro", but the 3 reviews all say it doesn't work..
Is there non-store place for some of these.. We can load a rom yet with ads removed for the LG Motion 4G, but removing the ads would be good enough for me

Ah indeed.. Apparently I'm too much of a newbie to allowed to post links, but google "pcmag" and "ad-block" and I guess you'll see the article.. I do see that the apps are available on f-droid (which is an open source apps store that I can't post a link to either - google is usually your friend here)...

You can try to download and use Lucky Patcher, very usefull app. It can help you.

You can download Adblock plus from their official website because google has pulled these adblocking apps from play store or you can use the lucky patcher if you have a rooted device. Hope it helps!

For AdAway, check F-Droid. AdFree can be found at the Adfree Android Homepage.
As both work using a modified /etc/hosts file, one could also manipulate that manually. But that would be quite a hazzle :silly:
I remember there was one app that worked by disabling the ad modules themselves -- which would be much more interesting to me. I just cannot figure out which app that was. Any hints?

You try to install the original whatsapp first and sign up for an account and than go into settings and before you uninstall, wipe data first before uninstalling than install whatsapp plus and it should work fine.

How is this related to WhatsApp?
Sent from my OmniROM-powered LG Optimus 4X HD

Thread closed as posting WhatsApp+ is considered warez on XDA.

Thread re-opened. As you are all aware, WhatsApp+ is no longer allowed on xda-developers due to a C&D letter sent by the developer. Because of this, we had to temporarily close down theme threads related to the app until a consensus and a way forward was reached with the rest of the administrative group.
I am glad to inform you that such consensus was reached earlier today and it was decided that as long as the WA+ app is not being distributed, that there is no reason for theme threads to be shut down. With this in mind, I ask you that you do not share or discuss ways of getting WhatsApp+ in any, way, shape, or form within our forums. Failure to do this will result in thread closures and administrative actions against the one(s) doing it (this includes sharing via pm as well).
Thank you for your cooperation.

I guess, that's how it works. Same thing here, but i don't care.
Also, you can still see blue ticks from others even if you have your ticks turned off.
Anyone else is having some problems with v6.47?
The "writing" or "recording voice message" status should be fixed and hidden if you have online status hidden, but it doesn't work.

I can see how it can come across as spam as I have 0 post history but it isn't - it actually works. Give it ago, nothing to lose.

This is the best tool of its kind and it really works. Thanks OP for this wonderful thing. Even there is a binary for windows on the website.

This looks rather interesting.
However, as you point out in your own website "you shouldn’t trust random binaries on the Internet and thus the C# source code is available if you wish to build it your self", it would be great to know how this works.

The C# app is just a wrapper for your web app. It doesn't show how it's done, so it doesn't allay any fears other than running the windows app. You still don't know anything about the apk that's downloaded.
Great idea though.

Exactly.
However I've downloaded a few small files and they match with the ones I already had.

I won't share how it's done but the APK is directly downloaded from the Play Store as if you were browsing it your self. Feel free to do MD5/SHA1 checksum comparisons of the apk from the play store and of the apk downloaded via this tool.

If it could then the thread would have been deleted and the OP would be receiving a stern message about distributing warez on a developers' forum. So, no - it doesn't download paid apps for free, as it says in the 1st post.
