Facebook.apk

I accidentally deleted the official Facebook app that came preloaded with my Iconia...now every time I attempt to download it from the Android Market it says not compatible with my device. What gives? Where can I get a copy? Did a google search for facebook.apk for some of those links look shady! Thanks.

The facebook app 1.6 isn't compatible with HC 3.1, so even if you get it it won't work, unless yoour not on HC 3.1 in which case no idea.

the original facebook app on the iconia was just a link to facebook.com. no app from facebook currently works on honeycomb. Download friend me from the market. It links into face book and gives a nice interface into facebook, honeycomb optimized.

This is absolutely not true i have facebook on my acer it is version 1.5.4 so, although 1.6 may not work, facebook does in fact work. You just need the right version.
that being said friend me is better on HC for sure.

i've always had the market facebook market app. The only problems are that widget and friend button doesnt work
edit
Las Facebook update works really well. Even the widget.
Try rooting your tablet and user market enabler

seems having a problem with the market and facebook, can't from the tablet get it
said : not available, retry... hu
on my second tablet I got the 1.6 I will extract it, and install on second tablet.. but it's weird

Just checked again and I can't even find the FB app on the market. The only day I can find it is if I got to GoChat and look under related apps. If I try to download it, I get the "the request you have made cannot be found.
I'm kind of just sticking to using FB in Dolphin HD. The desktop version on there works well enough.
I tried using Friend Me and although I love the interface, its missing much functionality and can't even get basics correct. Notifications are out of wack, can't refresh 'em and the app just doesn't seem to want to update the FB content. I have to logout and log back in in order to update my notifications.
Like I said, browser FB works well enough and GoChat for chat works perfectly.

It appeared on my Iconia last night and I downloaded it without any problems. I've also had problems downloading it in the past - I could find it on Market, but it couldn't be downloaded.

Friend Me app will do the job but you get ads on the bottom of the screen which I hate as much as not having FB on my tablet lol

i use social jogger for news feed and friendcaster for detailed interaction

[Q] Updating Facebook app that came with the ASUS Transformer

I have an ASUS Transformer that shipped with Android 3.0, one of my Bosses has just had an Android 3.1 Transformer arrive.
3.0 Provided Facebook and Twitter apps and widgets
3.1 does not
Has anyone else with a 3.0 version tablet(updated via OTA or flashing to 3.1) had problems getting the facebook app to update?
Should I uninstall the app and try to get it from the Market?

the facebook app was updated and the transformer was added to incompatible for the facebook app.

That sucks. You can use Launcher Pro with their sweet widgets.
As big as Facebook is, I'm sure it will get updated quickly. They've been updating it pretty frequently.
That or some awesome dev here will get it working. Maybe just something with the build.prop.

Well that answers it then.
Damn you Facebook, roll on Google+

My transformer shipped without Facebook so I went ahead and download Friend Me which is actually better in my opinion.
I had to download the APK from the forums since the market was stating incompatibility with the tablet however it works fine.

Why a facebook app?
Facebook in the browser works flawlessly! Add in the keyboard dock and you are no different than using it as if it was a windows PC.

FriendMe works even more flawlessly. Give it a try.
Only annoyance with Facebook in browser is that the full site goes back to the mobile website after pressing the top left "Facebook"

FRIEND ME isn't perfect but very nice and intuitive...

Weird. I haven't had that issue. Is your user agent set permanently? I use the
stock browser.
Friendme looks nice, but I don't like third party programs taking my facebook info and to my knoweldge, Friendme doesn't have chat?

It's set to Android. It'd probably fix it as setting it to Desktop but I prefer having it set to Android. Just tried it, top left is now fixed. Now when I hit Home it goes to the mobile page of Facebook.

[Q] New Market and FC

Hello!
New Market on motorola Xoom Wi-fi every time I want to upgrade giving me FC. I don't know how to fix it. Tried to delete upgrade install on the Application but it is upgrading by itself. Tried to clear the cash, clear data.
Nothing helps.
Please, who know how to fix this problem? Looks like new Market doesn't work on Honeycomb.
Guys, help me, please? I really need your advice?
Thank you!

What market version do you have?
Sent from my Xoom using xda premium

If you have Documents to Go installed, remove it. It has a problem with the manifest and Dataviz needs to update it, you can use the version from their website in the interim.
Or grab today's free Amazon Apps, Quick Office and Quick Office HD.

Tried everything. Market. 3.1.6, market 3.3.1.1 or something like that, all of them giving me fc.
Guys, please, I need a solution. Can somebody give some advice, please? Or maybe somebody have old mafket app flashable trough cwm? Because google doing nothing for honeycomb.
Sent from my Xoom using xda premium

The problem is almost certainly related to an installed app, if you don't have Documents to Go installed, started removing apps one at a time until the market begins working properly and report back when you identify the offending app.

I had a thread for the same thing a page or so back.
documents to go didnt seem to cause me much grief (but i removed it anyway), but i did have a problem with Enhanced Email FCing the market (which i also ended up removing on the xoom, working fine on the desire).
noticed my market updated itself to 3.3.1.1 (or similar) the other night too - same problems as the last version.
just waiting for ICS update now and will see if that fixes stuff - I imagine it will and/or devs will update their apps to ICS

Do you have apps that you side loaded that the market reported as not compatible? I get the market FC any time one of my side loaded apps tries to update.

I found that it was a certain alternative market that caused me to "loose" all of my apps... I thought that it was the new market and even went back to the moray 2.2.1 to have the old market.
I figured out it was that other market because I uninstalled it and bingo, I had my apps...
I was pretty stupid and used titanium backup to "force" the market links and ended up with one heck of a messed up android market.... Now I am working through that..

Uninstalled the app called "Download all files" and sims like everything working for now.
Thank you very much!

actually i think i had getjar on there... that's missing from the supermarché now - I wonder if that was the issue
i was also guessing that by the time ICS hits the xoom - and all the devs update their apps for that most of this issue should go away

FWIW, I had the exact same problem I uninstalled Enhanced Email and the problem went away. Too bad, I really like Enhanced Email!

Twitter issues w/ CM7

Is anyone else having issues with twitter apps on CM7 on their Fires? Every app ive downloaded from the market (including the official app) will not authenticate my login. It works in the browser but that doesnt help for wigets. Any fixes?

I run the official app with no issues. I am running the latest CM7.

Maybe theres something wrong with my install...but that wouldnt affect just one app...so i guess it might be something with my twitter account

Tweeter fine here using tweetcaster

I had this problem when I first installed the official twitter app in CM7. The issue corrected itself though so i assume it was server related

Official app worls perfectly for me.

I can't login to Twitter using any apps either, and I've tried the official one, Tweet Caster, and Twicca. I'll check my settings later and see if there's something blocking the apps.

Do you also havr CM7 flashed?

Not sure if related but my friend from the UK told me he was having the same problem trying to log in to the regular site from his PC for the past few days. But if he sends a ping request it goes through just fine.

I was having issues as well, so I just uninstalled it. Haven't tried it again since then, but maybe I will try to official app, as the last one was the gowidget twitter app.

Yes I do.
I've looked through Twitter's settings on the PC and I can't find anything that may be blocking it from allowing my Kindle Fire. All apps are listed as granted access. Also my Nexus S 4G connects to Twitter using any app just fine.
But funny enough, I now remember that when I installed Swiftkey Tablet X on my Kindle Fire, it couldn't connect to Twitter to "learn" from my Tweets. Weird...

No problems using plume but my fire is stock.

My twitter id is Rickywilson, I noticed instead of my pic and twitter info my phone shows the lead singer of the Kaiser Chiefs stuff. He is Ricky Wilson as well but his id is rickontour.
Apparently whatever cm7 uses for twitter will not use my account only his. its driving me nuts because my contact info shows his pic and tweets.
its mainly on my texts and other apps, whatever he puts up it changes my phone stuff. its all very confusing.

STILL can't use the Twitter app on CM7. What gives?

When I was using Twitter on CM7, I didn't have any problems.

I haven't been able to use the app since i flashed cm7.

First few days after flashing cm7 I was not able to sign in but one day out of the blue it worked. Still cant get other apps that use Twitter like channel caster to authenticate with Twitter, tells me either my user name or password does not match their records.

I've had CM7 for almost a month. I've uninstlled and reinstalled the app multiple times. I still get the msg "there was a error druing sign in, please try again later" or something to that effect

Has someone found a way to solve the problem with the Twitter app not working in CM7?
I haven't been able to use it, since I flashed CM7, but by looking at this thread, it seems to be a random issue; but has anyone solved this problem?

A Strange App appeared in my installed apps

Hi guys,
i have a strange app in my google play installed app list.
I attached a screenshot so you can see.
It seems in some way connected to the Polaris Office, when I launch it Polaris lauch, when I disable Polaris via applications panel the Open Button in the Google Play panel disappears. (It is "Apri" in italian in this screenshot)
Some of you guys is experiencing this ?
I am not rooted and I have not sideloaded any app, always used Android Market...
Any clues ?

Happened to me as well, I think this should be reported to Google and Infraware ASAP.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1565900

I'm un-rooted running totally stock and I had the app show up also. Not sure what it is, but I know I haven't installed anything I do not recognize.

Can confirm this as well on ARHD 3.1.0

I'm running US stock rooted and don't see anything like that on mine. It looks Korean though.
Maybe it's something the Polaris Office app or another stock app fetched recently. My Polaris Office app is not allowed access to the Internet.

I have this too. How do we investigate this further? I've reported it on the market but not comfortable having some unknown app which can not be uninstalled...

I also have this app and when I open it it runs the fille explorer in polaris office

This scenario sounds plausible, but it makes me wonder now why I don't have it. I am on stock and have uninstalled none of the prepackaged apps.

It's an app that is installed somehow onto the tablet. It is not uninstallable (using normal methods). It is somehow linked to Polaris Office.
If you root your phone, install Titanium Backup and then uninstall Polaris Office, then the app will disappear.
Strangely, I got this appear today for first time on my WW TF101 B60. I went back to stock ICS 403 using NVFlash and it said immediately after login that there was an update (from ASUS), which i installed. Upon login, I opened Google Play and saw this app for first time. I then install Titanium Backup (After rooting) and uninstalled Polaris office and the app went away.
I do not know where this app comes from, because I have reset it again with nvflash, checked market and it wasnt there, then applied ASUS update and checked market and still not there, even though Polaris office is still installed.
Weird

Hmm.. I'm stock and unrooted as well (always have been) with all updates, just checked my apps and I do NOT have this app in my list.
I wonder where you guys are getting it from..

Stock, unrooted B40 (is and always has been) and I have this app on my list in Google Play.

I'm pretty sure it's a bug with the new renamed Market failing to identify apps correctly.

I suppose it is a bug yes!
It just disappeared from my installed Apps.

yea i think its similar to this
