Nope may want to check the latest app that you have installed or any recent updates

Yeah backtrack your apps install and see what is causing the FC's.
I have two with a third on the way(long story) but nothing wrong with any one of them. Before the update the first one had a few lockups on the browser but after the update neither one had any lockups or FC's.
I have installed all types of apps just to see what will or will not work. Very few FC's if any at all. But I kept track of which apps caused the FC's to remove them until they get updated.
Its on apps like CNN and Facebook which have been working fine before. I guess I will try to track it back.
i get a lot of force closes with the browser and the CNN app. try killing the process as well as the cached process. theres two options. you will see it under 'running applications'
Only force close for me from the Facebook app so far is when I try to load the home screen widget. Slightly annoying.

I've had more FCs than I do on my rock-stable Droid 2 with Fission, esp. in the browser, but I suspect it's because Honeycomb is new.
It'll get more stable as Google handles bug reports and as devs learn how to use the new APIs.
Also, strict mode, which I need to get on, myself.
The FCs I get are retarded. I only seem to get them when I'm exiting out of the app anyways. I did get a FC once when I was using the Facebook app going from the stream to the home page thing, but it didn't actually close the app. So it's more annoying than anything.
the facebook widget and app are not designed for honeycomb, and many have stated it FCs. i would not use it for now. I use the app and it seems to work fine (not pretty, but works).
Also, OP. I used to get a tons of FCs in the browser and CNN. I cleared caches and uninstalled, but sometimes still the same thing. Try rebooting. I know it sounds cliched and the standard windows answer, but it honestly worked for me. I haven't had a FC in a while...knock on wood.
facebook is hit and miss. Sometimes after a boot the facebook app will work. Sometimes it won't. When it isn't working it will just fc constantly and is completely useless. The add account never works. The widget never updates.
Facebook is uninstalled till they fix it.
I get FC randomly, on random apps.. I report all of them.

Iv been getting a lot of FC's also.. even before I installed apps.. just seems that this is a lot more buggy then it should be.
Only FC I get is with the xda app, but that bug has been around for a long time. I dont use the facebook app and stopped using the CNN widget due to it slowing down the home screen. The app works fine for me though. On stock 3.0.1

yes, it does take forever to open at times. after you apply the lag fix it opens instantly though. depending on your preference and risk level if you want to venture down the "lag fix" path.
it did this when i updated it this morning, but it has been fine ever since
Mine opens quickly and I do not have a lag fix.

oh, neat. i was wondering what the update actually did
still need to be able to block callers though (or is there a way to do this already?)
Since updating today its not only slow to load, but slow everywhere when using the app. It often hands for 3-5 seconds fit no apparent reason. Do I need to uninstall the app and reinstall? Is my inbox too full? It says I have just over 400 messages. Do I need to archive a bunch of them?
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
So I tried cleaning out my inbox, rebooting my phone, and uninstall/reinstall of the app...none of this helped.
Am I they only one having issues?
Any ideas on what i could do to troubleshoot? Is this just a samsung thing and I should just wait until froyo update before spending too much time troubleshooting?

The new update was unbearable. Google voice always took 2-3 seconds to open but with this update it seems to take longer. On top of that it would lag the crap out of swype, and freeze the phone for 3-5 second after sending a message.
Titanium backup saved me from this horrible update.

I don't find it annoying but I consider it a stupid choice by going with 1x3. I have Launcher Pro Plus so I just resize it to 1x4. Much better
I am surprised no one has brought it up yet here. Running great on my evo! Loads everything properly, which the free app waant for me. Loads it a little faster too so far! Hopefully they release more themes. Only negative is it doesn't seem to hide the status bar.

If you use your phone's search button within the App, you can successfully search? I get immediate FC and many have the same problem.
I'm more curious about the other FCs - that others have seen as well - when doing something random like changing a page or viewing an attached image. Seems like it happens most when the app has been open for a while. Can almost expect it at times. Might have to check this premium version out, didn't even know it WAS out! Thanks.

I fully agree with you with my HTC Vision running stock froyo.
Search is a 100% FC.
To avoid the other type I have always to get out the topic and exiting XDA App, before minimizing/doing something else.
Is this version solving?
I'll probably buy it just to support xda. However every single time I back out of a topic after I have been out if the app for a few mins or the next time I open it, I always get a force close. Every single time I can replicate it. I have to restart the app so it wont force close
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
I cant tell you... i never got these fcs... i must have a magic phone. I am flashing another rom haha. So i will tell you if search causes fc soon.
Edit: the search button does nothing at all now... lol
It's a good looking app... also Ad-free! Only available for a limited time.. so for a dollar, may as well get it while you can.

I get FC on search function and can't upload .png files? Kinda crappy. If those two are fixed i'll buy.
I know its early and I'm all for sticking it out with this thing but just wow. Apart from having to reboot it at least every day if not every day, I came home today and the thing wouldn't even turn on. It must have locked up in standby and I couldn't get it to wake up. I had to hold down volume up and power to revive it. I'm wondering if its some app I have running in the background so I uninstalled a few and will see. Is this common or am I the unlucky schmuck.
I have not had anything that bad.... just a few FC's ..Maybe an app or launcher?

The only instability I have is with the browser locking up (not force closing, just not responding to input), and that seems to have started after updating to 3.0.1 (but before installing Flash).
i haven't had many fc's at all...maybe 5 or so since I bought it wednesday.
Overall its been running really smooth
Don't get me wrong.. its smooth as butter but closing the Facebook app is almost always a fc not to mention the launcher reloads often when old apps are closed. I am rooted as well with the latest update

My advice is don't update on your phone, it's the same problems. Actually, if you still have the old version on your phone, any chance you could let me have the old apk so I can downgrade?

Try this out. Should fix the FC until facebook gets around to it
I guess I could fix the widget too, but its ugly and the next update would just break it anyway.

There is actually a Honeycomb/Tablet edition, though in beta...
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.handmark.friendstream&feature=search_result
Works well for me, and definately less crashes than the native Facebook for Android app...
I've actually gone so far as to uninstall the official Facebook on my Vibrant running CM 7. With the last update on July 18th, for some reason, even if you set it to never poll for notifications, never refresh, and not to sync, it still keeps the news feed open in the background and constantly refreshes it. I noticed huge battery drain one day when I took my phone off of the charger, barely used it all day, and later that night around 11 I had 14 percent battery warning. When I looked into the battery history, Facebook took up a whopping 81 percent of the battery drain on that particular charge.
Will stick to using the 3rd party options.

There are a lot of apps that you won't find in the market because they haven't been optimized for Honeycomb. I normally just install them on my phone, pull the apk, then transfer it to my tab. So far every app I tried worked just fine including fb and google voice.
Friendcaster for Tab seems great to me, but it loads continuously when I select the messages tab, not showing anything... if that'll be solved, and chat will be added, it will be the perfect FB app for me!

My Messages tab does that too, as does the Events tab. Very annoying. I really hope a new beta's released soon. I sent the dev a PM about it but haven't heard anything back yet.
Strangely enough, I've seen a walkthrough video of the app (on Android Central I think) which showed them using the Messages and Events tab both working fine.
EDIT: New beta just released fixes the Messages issue, but I still have problems with Events.
