Facebook update on N2 stinks

**hopefulfarm** · 12-15-2012, 05:16 PM

Am I the only one having a horrible time with the fb update? Is it the note2, is it JB, or is ot that facebook cant write a decent app ?

It worked well briefly but I get "network error" so often it is just a joke now.

Frustrated!!

Working great on mine. I would try stopping the app, then deleting the cache and reinstalling. See if that works?

Wow any idea why mine is so awful? Was fine until the update. Even on wifi it's horrid. I completely uninstalled the app.

I'm not sure why you would be having the difficulty with it on your phone. For me, this has been the best release of the app yet. Up until this release, I considered the FB app on Android to be one of the worst in the system.

Do you have a virus scanner on your device that might be interfering with the latest app?

No virus scanners.

It seems like there is something going on with another app or something maybe interfering with it. If it were me, I think I might try and do a factory reset.

Ive been slowly uninstalling apps. I also tried loading FB via my browser and it is equally slow and un responsive. Any thoughts on what is causing that?? I have good signal. Other info loads fast. ( for instance this forum loads super fast)

Hmm. Right now it looks like the firefox browser may have been the culprit.

I thought I should post what I found. It started with firefox. Looks like when I tried to log in to fb using the firefox browser it set off an issue in Facebook.

I dumped firefox and reinstalled the fb app. I went in to my browser settings and deleted the cache, cookies, the history, etc.

Then I signed in to fb and went to my settings and security.

I deleted all sessions of fb that were listed except the current session I had initiated.

Then I went in to recognized devices and deleted them all but home and the messenger app. It had multiple versions for my phone.

This seems to have fixed the issue. Maybe if someone has this issue in the future this post will help.

My issue is with replying to comments on any of my status...whenever I open a status from the notifications it will show "error posting comment" and deleting whatever I had written...but if I go into my profile, search for said status and open it from there then the comment goes through just fine... anyone else experiencing this?

**boudizz** · 01-05-2013, 02:15 PM

I've started to experience the exact same thing today, error posting comment, and it's only when open the thread from the notification section. I still can post comments but I have to do that from the profile page !!

Lol. It's FB.... The FB app is awful. Every update causes a new problem with certain phones

I'm finding that it often shows old posts from days ago while not showing the newer stuff that shows on my news feed when I go to my computer. Not always but often - very inconsistent. However, I'm not having any of the functional issues that others seem to be having.
