Two tab 3 tablets both with 4.4.2 with the facebook issue. Definitely beyond the simple cache, uninstall reinstall, reboot solutions. This is a bug that will have to be fixed by either Samsung or Facebook.

I hate that they don't check to see if it works on tablets now we are stuck with it till they fix it. They don't care cause they want us to buy new devices...

Maybe I did something wrong , I dont see my message . Anyway same problem with samsung galaxy 3 tablet 10. 1 . What I found ( read ) was that there is a way to revert back to past , previous upgrade ( firmware ) . I posted the site , maybe that's why I don't see my post ? Has anyone looked into this ? It is possible from what I read

My Samsung Galaxy tab 3 keeps crashing when I use the facebook app. I tried uninstalling and reinstall the facebook app. I have cleared cache I did everything but bring it back to factory settings, which I don't want to do everything else works fine. This seemed to happen after a major android update maybe? Anybody else experiencing this problem?

I'm in the crash club too. The Facebook App crashes when I try to do anything, including scrolling through the news feed, looking at pictures, trying to comment, trying to update my status, trying to like anything. I've tried uninstalling & reinstall, clearing caches, and resetting factory settings. Nothing has worked. This is very frustrating!

Does anybody know if this issue is being looked at or worked on? It has now gotten to the point where I bein forced to either go back to the laptop/pc, not bother with FB or god help me get an ipad.

Has anyone tried to revert back to the last upgrade before this 4.4.2 ? Or has anyone read on how this is done . Please, there must be a tech savvy person out there that knows more about this than I do . Please read up on this topic and share your opinion . Using samsung galaxy 3 tablet 10. 1

Also in the crash club. Contacted Samsung they stated it's Facebook not up to date on the OS update. Contacted Facebook no response. I won't hold my breath. Don't bother clearing cache or reinstalling, have done multiple times, with no resolution.

Okay , maybe looking at the wrong path to take . Talking with the women , she claims that it was not after samsung galaxy 3 tablet was upgraded to latest 4.4.2 but when Facebook was upgraded , so she claims . So looking now into going back to an older version . Some reading there is a way to do this . One posted to go back to 3.5 without messenger . I'm sure we are all looking for whatever it take to stop Facebook from crashing . Note: The woman said keep one finger on the screen while scrolling with other help Facebook from crashing . Has anyone tried to revert back to previous version of Facebook ? ?

So if you are using chrome for Facebook in lieu of the app not working....how do you watch videos without flash player? Makes me mad when I have to go to my PC in order to get the full functions of facebook! Makes getting the Tab a dumb choice I probably shouldnt have wasted the money and bought an iPad instead??

Welcome to Android Central! When you say you cleared cache, do you mean the system cache partition, or the Facebook app cache?

 

[marianne0101]

I cleared the Facebook cache.
