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.
Skype finally made it to Android and Legend in particular. Haven't tested it with voice calls yet. Now, maybe GTalk will follow?
I've tested it a bit and it even works on EDGE. I couldn't believe that myself but it does.
Link
Hmm... Just seeing the list of permissions it requires confirms I'll stay away from this one as I did from the PC version.
Oh well I lived without it so far without any problem, this won't change
edit: and for a 2.1 stock legend, that's also a pretty big app to install!
Now, maybe GTalk will follow?

Gtalk is a stock app on Android. Or i'm missing your point?
Tested Skype for few mins, seems to work fine. Great sound quality, but... It's so heavyweight and there is no option to shut it down COMPLETELY. Lastly, my phone went offline (which newer happened before) so i just uninstalled it and already forgot. Bloatware.
Sent from my Legend using XDA App
It froze my phone twice, had to reboot several times... This release of Skype makes Legend unusable, at least my Legend.
skype.apk file
Can someone please post the Skype.apk file.
The Skype download for Android link doesn't work.
Thanks,

If you use Market Access, you can gain entry to it.
I did this and downloaded the app, however, i keeps crashing within seconds of me running it. Any idea why?
When I try to sign in, it instantly says try again later, seems like it doesn't even try to sign me in. Any earthlings having the same problem?
Works fine on my phone.

We are looking for "Shut that f**k off COMPLETELY" option, no just to sign out. Even when you are signed out it uses quite a lot of resources.

I am stock...anyone know how to get the upgrade...I am on version 1.6.21
Edit: never mind....even though it's a pre-installed app and doesn't show in Market as a downloaded app (and thus no upgrade notification is available), you just go into Market, search for Google Youtube and install it like a new app. The pre-installed app will be upgraded.

You would think that if you searched for YouTube which is owned by Google, on the Market, which is also owned by Google, it would be the first one listed. Nope, it is the 9th.
Does anyone have youtube 1.6 apk. The new youtube 2.0 is nice but doesn't let me use youtube ripper. Thanks
new UI is nice but it still sucks at streaming with Froyo... constantly getting "There was a problem playing the video"

I rebooted and found it. My market is weird sometimes. The market is a mess and disorganized.

Are we still not able to comment on videos or am I missing something?
Just updated now...lovely UI, I like that you can just swipe left/right to view other tabs while video plays. HQ seems more, well, HQ too.
searched "You tube" and it was the first app that it showed...
Much better!! Before I couldnt watch half of the videos. Now everything plays and I'm not waiting on buffering either. I am overclocked so that may help with it not buffering...
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.

There is currently not a Facebook app in the market. They haven't optimized it for Honeycomb yet, but you can get it here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1143913&highlight=kanged and that should work. The only issue I have with it, is that the friends list part force closes.
They must have recently taken it down, thanx for the link tho

Use Friend Me
I use Friendcaster. Lots more options and when you say No Notifications..... it stops polling and giving you notifications. I notices a lift in battery when I uninstalled it. Friendcaster just seems nicer and smoother to me.

I've had that happen with the market a few times too. I normally just back out and go back in until it finally works.

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!
PS: anyone solved the messages issue?

Mine does that with messages too, and yes, chat is a must. At least chat works on the Facebook app though. That's about the only good thing about it. While we're on the subject of honeycomb apps and notifications not working; how hard is it for Words With Friends to get notifications to work?! Is it really that difficult? I play a word and THEN it tells me it's my turn.
This Facebook app works just fine in Honeycomb.

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.
