Hi guys,
Last week, Facebook rolled out a new gif button for comments however I don't seem to have it. I'm running the latest beta version of the app but I suspect it was a server side switch anyhow. Everyone seems to have it on iOS but no luck for me on Android. I'm using a S8 with Batman ROM (7.0). Anyone else got it?
Not bragging but I've had Gif support in comments for at least the last month and a half give or take. Maybe the beta version you're on excluded it.
Hmm I've reverted to the regular version but still no good. Just gonna have to sit and wait then I guess. Cheers
Try formatting the data and cache and re install it
Missing it
Critical, we've all had support for gifs. (We can upload them via a normal upload or a link). They've been displaying, we're just missing the gif button. I have the same problem on my S7 edge. Its quite annoying. I've deleted my Facebook app, I've disabled an re-enable my account, I've tried everything. And unfortunately the lovely people at Facebook have no way to be reached.
Got it
So I got in touch with Facebook about a week ago, and today the button seems to be there. Might have been there a couple of days, but I just noticed it. I linked this post and several other with the same thing, so they may have seen the issue seems to be spread out.

It is fantastic.
Wouldn't consider this as warez as its not a paid app, just the (soon to be) public beta.
Enjoy!

I would personally wait for the public beta as that's going to happen in a few days.
Yup on the internet are "old" version.
I prefer to wait for the official beta launch. Probably even tomorrow...
I accidentally deleted a column, how do I re-add it? D:
Weird, I can't get it to work.. get java error..
Edited: Its working :O!
thanks.... i'll try it out
the official beta for this launches today.

I'm on the current pre-beta and there are a lot of things missing that will hopefully be included in the proper beta release. Little things like no settings menu.
FroYo, xda, beer, repeat.
Official beta is out now. It looks good but is very very buggy. Foursquare gives FC , cant add columns, no notifications...

Have it loaded on my Vibrant using FB & Twitter only. Very stable for me and I'm really diggin it so far.
Loaded Tweetdeck yesterday I was very disappointed compared to the iPhone version. Why is it missing so many features, sad Im still waiting for a Twitter cliet as good as Twittelator Pro for Android. The closest I have found is Touiteur, I like Hootsuite but like Seesmic there is no @ ID address support.

Which features are missing? Must say that I'm only familiar with the desktop client, not the Iphone client.
I have tried the Tweetdeck for android as well and I must say I like the look and feel of the app. Sometimes the app crashes when changing views, but hey... it's still beta so I can live with that. What I am missing is a settings menu. ATM there is no way to set the update interval, which is a big mis imho...
Looking forward to see the end result of the app.
I'm liking the Tweetdeck for Android beta and it looks like they are pushing fixes and updates out really quickly. Hopefully this will be fully featured and out of beta soon.
beta 2 is out. check their tweeter
Beta 3 is now available, you can now customize the refresh intervals (individually for each column, too!).

Edit: Full changelog: http://support.tweetdeck.com/entries/240663-new-android-tweetdeck-beta-v0-9-3-available
installed this after Paul Obrien tweeted about it... I'm really impressed and whilst it's a bit lite on features I have a feeling they will iterate quickly. I use the OSX desktop client so am figuring it will include a lot of the features from that before long, but with a mobile slant of course...
Okay, so as I understand it, tweetdeck should combine Twitter, Facebook, Buzz, whatever.... into the "Home" column, right?
It seemed to last night, but since then it's seen 2 tweets and zero facebook posts, even refreshed it a few times.
I know it's beta, but not sure why it seemed to work last night but not today.
Nope, by far not just me.. http://support.tweetdeck.com/entries/237561-facebook-syncing-stopped

I had it earlier this afternoon too...
Later today, when I tried to fix it, I pressed in the account screen on my facebook account. Somehow it "locked" i think, because i couldn't press it afterwards anymore.
Since then it updates & refresh again. Maybe that works?

I poked at that too and all it did was pop up a similar window to the first time it authenticated, but immediately went away.. No updates.
I think I'll uninstall it for now, maybe look again later. Overall I like the idea, but if it won't work, it's useless. Someone replied to my tweet about it not updating Facebook with "Restart your phone". Wut? Uninstall is my answer.
Has the battery drainage been solved by adding the update interval setting? Couldn't see anything specific in the changelog for 0.9.3.
I posted it in the market a couple of days ago and still looking to squash all the bugs as well as get any suggestions and so on. It's called extensive notes. Thanks!
Download and try'd out, my only real complaint is the small font.
I'm working on an option to address that in the pro version of the app.
i posted this on the official google help forum last week when the update first rolled out, but haven't gotten any replies (which doesn't surprise me i guess, but i can't believe nobody else has seen this problem)...
i get occasional text messages from certain people who i don't want to talk to for the most part, but i like to be able to see what they're sending me if i so choose. so, i mark those people as spam...their messages still come through but are filtered into my spam folder, which i can then go onto my computer and open the web interface and read.
however, with the newest update of the android app, i'm now getting notifications for all messages, even if they're spam. this is insanity...if i have them marked as spam, why would i want a notification when i get a message from them?
the app used to do it the right way, and just filter them into my spam folder and not notify me that i had a new message...i tried uninstalling and reinstalling the google voice app, and that seemed to get rid of them for about an hour...then they started coming through again.
this is extremely frustrating and i haven't gotten any help (like i said) on the official google voice forum...has anyone else seen this and if so is there any way to fix it?
bump? anyone?
That stinks.
The only thing I can say is that version before this one broke notifications for me (and many others according to market comments), so I was using an older version and this new version fixed my notifications.
So, at least there is a history of fixing regressions. Unfortunately, it did take a good couple of months between updates.
No one from google responds on the google groups, but you can try posting here though:
http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/voice?hl=en
You can probably find the previous version and use that.

the page you linked to is where i posted it...no response from anyone (google or otherwise), which i find strange (unless nobody is using the SPAM filter, which i'd also find strange).
First world problem !!!!!
Hi guys!
So today I opened up my Facebook application and was graced with a beautiful new, fluid UI. I am a member of the Alpha Team, however I have rigorously tested this new interface and I cannot find any bugs with it what so ever.
Gone is the horrible sidebar that once was, the layout is extremely similar to that of the latest Twitter application, apart from the Settings are not on a three button menu.
I've uploaded some screenshots to my Dropbox, take a look here!

It's so nice update but I don't know why the FB application is still using so much from the battery
Anyway the FB application keep syncing the things everytime you connect to internet so... I don't have it

I have heard a few people moan about this in the past, but I have genuinely never had any issues with Facebook and battery. In the settings there is an option to the reduce the refresh rate to just once every four hours, I think you can even disable it completely to be honest. I have Facebook on my Note 3 though and with or without Facebook installed I pretty much get the exact same battery life.

Agreed. Ugly, and bored.
The UI work is fine. As mentioned, the wakelocks and battery use are terrible. Even when I turn off sync and notifications, Facebook causes more wakelocks than most other apps and uses a lot of data. They should address that but it seems they never will so I use the web sites.

Hmm, your version is listed as 6.0.0.27 but I seem to have 7.0.0.1 with the 'old' interface.
yeah, I'm not liking the new UI
I am also on 7.0.0.1 and have the old UI...

It seems I'm in the same boat with you. It's 7.0.0.0.1, not 6.0.0.0.27 at all. Same UI as well.

7.0.0.1 and have the old UI as well. At least I am not the only one.
It seems to be account related because I signed into my brothers account and I have the new ui then I log into mine again and I have the old ui once again

I find it unfair how random people are getting the new UI and yet I haven't gotten it yet even though I've been in the alpha program since it first started.
Do we still get the new UI for facebook app? I mean for everyone!! ??

totally agree!
It's server decided. Any issues with not seeing the new UI have nothing to do with the application. users who get the new newsfeed SHOULD get the new UI. Not definite in all cases though.
I "think" I got it
People are asking about this new UI all over the internet, and when my friend came asking why he still has the old UI on his Note 3, while I have the flat UI on my Note 2, I had to dig into it...
First of all, we both have exactly the same version of the apk from the Play store (6.0.0.28.28), I even sent him the apk from my device to be 100% sure. He logs into his account on his Note 3, gets old UI. I log into my account on his Note 3 after clearing data, I get the old UI as well (so it is not server/account related issues as mentioned before, we even have been sharing the same router at the time).
He logs into his account on my Note 2, he gets new UI. I log him out, force stop, clear all data, and log into my account, I get the OLD UI !! Weird right ?!
I looked everywhere in the settings, maybe I made a toggle or something before ... then I remembered I don't see the "Home" settings under the FB app settings. I had "Home" installed previously and then removed. So I installed "Home" and activated it. Logged into Facebook and voila, the new UI !
I logged off again, force stopped, cleared data, and removed "Home" entirely. Logged in again, same old UI. Installed "Home" one more time, activated it, logged into FB, and the new UI came up. I uninstalled "Home", logged out (didn't clear data), and logged in again, and I still got the new UI. So I am guessing it has to be related to the Facebook "Home" app, somehow it leaves a setting in FB app data to enable the new UI !
Tried doing the same on my friend's N3, but "Home" is for funny reasons isn't compatible with his device as of now. Sent him the apk and installed it, it nagged that it isn't compatible with this device, so we couldn't truly "activate" it. He still has the old UI.
I hope this casts a light on the problem of not having the new UI and helps others. I only tried it on a couple of "similar" devices, so your feedback is also appreciated
What was your exact process for setting up the home launcher? I have a sgs4 and tried this, no dice.

I have found a method to use Facebook without the messenger app. It works with all versions I've tried however because it's a glitch, the newer the version the more glitches occur. The version I use is from May 28th 2015 so you will not be losing any features really and you can still FACEBOOK CALL!!!
Ok so the method is uninstall Facebook and messenger, when you uninstall Facebook you need to clear cache/data.
Now you need to go to https://developers.facebook.com/docs/android/downloads this is the official developers Facebook page so you know there wont be any viruses or anything.
Download ''Facebook APK 29.0'' this is the last version that allows messages without the messenger app. You need to extract the .apk using winzip and move it to your phone. When you install V29.0 run it and make sure you can access your messages without the messenger app, sometimes left over files from the newer version force you to install messenger even though this version doesn't require it. If it doesn't let you access your messages you need to clear data/cache/force stop and try loading it again, this is a pain sometimes as it takes awhile for the app to set up each time but it will work. It worked for me first time which is how I came across this glitch but after playing around with different versions I found V29.0 started asking me to install messenger and took around 3 times clearing data/cache before it worked.
Next step, once you have messages working on V29.0 is to download V34.0 and install it over the top of V29.0. Don't clear data, if you do this it won't work. Once installed it should have the left over files from V29.0 and it will let you view your messages, reply to them and even make calls!!
This glitch can be a little tricky to get to work or it can be very easy, it all depends.
One thing I have noticed is when you install V29.0 the screen freezes and you have to exit and reload the app, this seems to happen every time for me, but backing out fixes it and it doesn't happen again. The other thing is if you install V35.0 the Facebook calls don't work, I seem to remember getting V35.0 to work with calls but it's not working now for me, you may want to try it, if you do let me know if you get it working. You can update to the latest version of Facebook but I wouldn't recommend as it is buggy.
I know this is long and a bit of a pain but it works beautifully once you get it working, V34.0 has all the features I need, the only it seems to be missing is the built in browser for viewing websites. Everything else I have tested works, tagging friends in comments/photos/statuses, playing videos, stickers, smiley's ect... plus you get the old interface which I prefer to the new one.
Any questions feel free to ask and let me know if it works for you, if it does hit the 'thanks' button
Thanks alot sir. This is very cool.
I used final facebook right now (55), if i update the app will impact on chat or not sir?
Hello all, I know Facebook still offered a sort off backroom code for messenger still deeply embedded within the app however even with this method which by the way, works, once you install last build (v58) it doesn't direct you to install messenger, but to the web version of Facebook since the embedded messenger code no longer exists there. Maybe if you find which was the last build that had messenger still somewhere in there, we could update to it

Version 55 does have it. I'm not sure if it is the latest, but it seems to work so far for me.
updated to V34 as per above instructions, works perfectly. Thanks
