I've had the same problem on my HTC Rezound for a week. I tried everything and this finally worked. I put it in airplane mode then only turned on the WiFi. It finished the download within a few seconds and hasn't come back. I read on another droid forum that the download needs a WiFi only connection and I keep my phone on LTE so that was my problem.
Facebook (build 141046) randomly downloading to my phone...anyone else?
- Thread starter cpolism
- Start date
Hadn't tried the WiFi option and realized when I saw this that mine was off but this did the trick... Thanks!! This was on my Google Nexus and for some reason the update has not happened on my tablet yet... Nexus 7....strange.
Yea, my husband has gS2. When he opened fb it said a new fb build has to download and replace the old fb build..

Made this account just to let you know what I did to solve this problem. I took the battery out, without turning off my phone. Then I took out the sim card. Turned the phone back on. Go into your download history, it will show things you download all month and things that are processing. It will show Facebook build paused. I clicked the box next to it, gave me the option to cancel/clear selection hit cancel download. Good luck
I spent all day trying to find out what this was. Kept deleting the download and searching online for any info. Once I got home and my wi-fi was on it downloaded without me noticing. ARGH!!!! I deleted all of Facebook just for that and now I found this article on Engadget: Facebook allegedly skirts Google Play store with latest update, adds auto-download of newest versions
This is not acceptable for me. No more FB on my phone!

Well, I was also facing the same problem for last 20+ hrs.
I did following things to stop it..
I use Samsung Galaxy phone.
I went to Downloads>> Other Downloads
There I found the Facebook Build 141046 downloading. I selected it and clicked on CANCEL.
It worked out.
Hope, this will help you.

I did the same as you, delete facebook and manually delete the download, but now the store play does not work and I can not download facebook again.
It never finishes downloading to actually see what it is. It just keeps "downloading". It's been doing it for 3 days now and I've tried everything. Just "force stopped" my download manager per above. Hopefully it doesn't kick back in or I'll have to factory reset.

Forget the official Facebook app... Friendcaster puts it to shame. The link is for the free version. I'm using the paid.

I like friendcaster... but I didn't like how it didn't send me notifications right away... and it didn't show the latest posts in my newsfeed.
