Facebook notifications problem

For a few days now every time i try to do a refresh on the notifications page in the facebook app. I get an error, something about a parse error.
I don't know why, since i haven't done anything different or added any new apps.
Any help?
Thanks

I have the same problem too. May be the problem is at Facebook server.

Same here, it fails to update since a few days back. This has happened before and that time it was due to changes of how FB works, not related to SE or android failure. Hope it gets resolved soon.

Facebook is fine here, connecting through the official (crappy) app.

:-(... read something on a swedish news app that Facebook has had some problems these last days, and that the fb team had not found the source of it yet. Hopefully all shall be able to update soon.

Perhaps they should remove the horrible Facebook app that's on the market and release one that actually works. Take a page from iPhone app.

Can you give a description of what's "horrible" about the app?
Aside from built in Chat and Places support, it's pretty close to the iPhone version in terms of features, and it works perfectly fine.

The facebook app on iPhone is better.

Same here, got the newer one from the market and it works great.
My friend was whining about his FB app too and I asked him if he updated it.
*He replied "but I have the latest version".
*I asked "did you manually DL the one from teh market and replace teh one on your phone?"
*He said "um, no... it did not say it needed an update so I never changed it"
*I explained the pre installed app bug and showed him the difference in the two apps. Problem solved!

oh okay good to know. Cuz I have the facebook app that came on the phone. I assumed (never ASS-u-me) it would be the same one in the market.

so i downloaded the new facebook app, and it looks very similar to the iPhone one, which is good. So I tried logging in and I keep getting a "login in error". And I checked the e-mail address and password 3 times.
Never mind it works now. Sorry.

Genie widget

I love the genie widget but I can't get it to with on any of the vibrant 2.2 roms. Does anyone here have a working apk for 2.2 vibrant?? I've searched all over but all I can find is the same one I've been using since my g1.
Thanks

Ya the one I was using on eclair FC on froyo. So, I found one that works last night. No problems all day today...even auto finding my location.

Thx. I'll check it out

How did you install it. At 1st I got cannot install so I used root explorer to put it in system apps. That let me install, but all I get is fc when I try to use it
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App

I used Root exp. Try rebooting your phone and see if that works. What way did you try installing the first time before root exp?

Thanks for your help but I can't seem to get it to work. I usually install directly from the download file in astro. I then tried using root explorer.
Thanks for the help though

Good job Demo

Is this the version of the program that brings up news stories in the program itself or does this version just display the headlines and opens the stories in the browser?

I posted a link to smoked glass geneiwidget in apps if interested. Looks better. It has about 70% transparency

[Q] XDA App FC

Anyone else having constant force closes with the free XDA App. Not sure if its a HC issue, app issue or Acer issue. Hope its fixed soon its much easier to use than the full site.

I have had this issue with a few apps. Seems most are not quite honeycomb compatible yet.

XDA Pro crashes a lot on my A500 as well.

Works fine here, initially opens in portrait but then switches to landscape.

I'm in this state as well; I'm on a Nook Color running CM7, and the XDA app FCs if I look at any article after logging in. If I don't log in, I can view articles all I want.
The FC log entry shows that it's in xda-specific code, not in tapatalk itself.

The xda app seems to crash on a lot of tablet based devices... it did on my Archos and gtab.
Got fed up and paid for tapatalk pro and it works perfectly.

I went and bought the XDA premium app and have not had one FC on my tab nor my D1. Well worth the $1. The free app would not work at all with the favorites section on the tab.

Its not a tab issue, its a HC issue. For whatever reason, the free app isn't compatable with HC, but the paid app seems to be.

Across four different android devices, the XDA app has never, ever been stable enough for me to use for longer than 2 minutes.

No, it's an Android problem. It has the same issue on 2.2 with the Viewsonic GTab and on my Samsung Galaxy S with 2.1. It's been known about for months, but XDA doesn't seem inclined to fix the free app. Go figure.

I only have FCs when I sign in. If I don't sign in no issues at all.

Usually FCs on me when I try to view a thread.
If they have known about this problem and done nothing about it it doesn't exactly inspire confidence in paying for the app.
In addition... This is a developers site and they cannot develop a stable app? That doesn't reflect well either.

I agree. I had this FC issue with my elocity A7, besides my A500. I purchased the premium and have not had this problem. I can even send reply, could not do that before with the free apk.

Good news everyone! Netflix finally has an app for android!
The lovely xda gurus even modified it to stop the device check.

Thanks! This works great for me. I tried out a few different programs and everything seems to be working.
What kind of bandwidth does Netflix use on a mobile device? When I stream music I use about 60-70 MB/hour. I am wondering if this is something I can use outside my home or just when I have access to wifi.
Thanks.

installs fine, stream starts, but has the "chipmunk" audio issue (playback twice fast), as well as the green bar at the top issue. (P509, rom void#echo, with hwacc.)

Yeah.. some people have had this issue across different models of phone.
Personally, on CM7 from mik, it works fine for me. I wonder if it 2x on froyo and not gingerbread.
So far as bandwidth taken, I don't know yet. I have only done it on wifi so I haven't been paying much attention.

I'm also having problems with Instacrap, specifically the hipster talent results. Every time I try to edit a photo it turns out looking like a polaroid or a hemorrhoid. I keep hearing iprone users say they deleted photoshop and turned their real cameras into lamps and ashtrays, but I must be missing something. Is the android version different? I've noticed better results when I ran out of toilet paper and had to use people magazine to wipe! Maybe I could write an app that smears poop on photos...

Anybody have trouble posting pics? Mines keep saying its too small and I know that's not the case because I have my resolution up to the highest.

I feel the same way...personally I can't see why everyone is getting all frothy over an app that makes pictures that look like they came from cameras that need to be thrown away.
Not only that but it's a 12MB install!

it isn't about the filters, there are several Android apps with much better filters and more variety. Instagram is about the built-in community.
