Howdy! I'm new to this forum as I just got an N7 for Christmas (got one for my kids too) but I've been lurking on XDA for a while with my Nexus One and HOX.
Facebook is crashing on my N7 when I try to share a pic from the Gallery that the N7 sees as an Instant Upload from my HOX via Google+. I'm not sure if this is known issue or not - I tried the search and did not see anything similar. Sharing a pic that is local on the N7 works just fine. I'm guessing it's not really an "issue", just more like the way it is as the Instant Upload image is not locally stored on the device. But one would think that if the option is there it should work. I've not rooted or anything (yet - not sure if there's a need right now).
Just wondering if anyone else has noticed this? If it should be considered an issue, is it an issue for Facebook or an issue for Google?
Just to test, I was able to upload an Instant Upload pic to Instagram just fine. Must be a Facebook issue.

So when I was playing with my nexus s I decided to replace google books with kindle and when I deleted google books it completely screwed up my homescreen. I could not put down a new shortcut to an app (from the app drawer) or move an app without it deleting itself. I was able to solve this by turning the device off and on but it still happens in some spots on the home screen. Anyone else have these issues?
Seems from another thread other people are also having this issue.

I've reported this issue to Google. Please visit the link and star the report so more attention is brought to it in the hopes of a future fix. http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=13563
For the last few months I've Ben unable to update/install Facebook on a500. App does not show in marketplace app, does show on web android market but shows as not compatible with Acer. I've got factory install (of honeycomb) and received latest updates---though I had the problem prior to 3.1. Note I already have older version of Facebook when I was able to install (when I first got a500...just after release). I'm not interested in rooting if possible and believe issue must be related to configs on marketplace in my profile?
I'm sure the issue isn't very widespread or else this forum would filled with posts...anythoughts?
you are correct that it is currently not compatible. That is why on your Acer there is a Facebook link. It has nothing to do with your user settings on the marketplace. What you can do is look up on xda or on Google for the facwbook apk.

Download Friend Me from the market, it's the next best thing to an actual app from Facebook.
As far as Netflix, the only way right now is to root, download the app from the forum, download a patch and it'll work. Only downside is it causes problems with the camcorder function.
Maybe this can lead you in the right direction:

The Netflix fix does not cause me video can issues.
Don't know about net flix but i use the same black transparent Facebook app that I use on my mosaic powered captivate with no problems

I use the dolphine browser HD for fb. Use a gesture for quick access. Set it to use https instead of http. Netflix won't work unless u root it. Look around for rooting options and apk for Netflix.
the Facebook link Acer provides sucks. I can't use it myself. Dolphine has webzine feature but if u like regular full fb, dolphin in desktop mode is perfect.

Hi All,
Just got my Nexus 7 and all I can say is I am loving it.
I have an HTC DHD phone and I wish to store my camera shots online and then view them on my Nexus 7.
What are you guys using to do this. I have a Dropbox account and have just got google drive.
I would rather not use my Dropbox as I try to keep this for work only.
I have set up a google drive and copied some photos on to is but on the android app I can see file names and would see thumbnails.
My overall vision......
Use my phone camera for taking piccies.
Back these up to a cloud (only with Wifi (setting is important for me))
View thumbnails of photos on Nexus - download if required.
Any thoughts for best option?
Google+ with Instant Upload. That's how I do it. It's automatic.
You can send photos back and forth using bluetooth

I can't figure out why the Facebook App on the N10 acts differently than on my N7 and N4.
For example I can't access my timeline by clicking on my profile as usual, instead it only shows a protocol of my last actions/activities.
It doesn't seem normal to me, is it a bug on the N10 out is it a crappy feature?

Same issue here. Pictures are missing too.
I've tried to force it to a different layout or size with Paranoid Android, but no joy
Try Friendcaster instead?
Friendcaster FTW :good:. It works perfectly, loads fast, runs great, and looks beautiful on the Nexus 10. I enjoyed it so much more over the official Facebook app that I decided to buy the ad free version .
Never even installed it, just got used to using the web version on my X2 cause the app sucks
What is facebook? Isn't every one on G+? Buahaha!!!!
I reported it two days ago. Been fixed today...
Problem with Friendcaster and other third party apps is that if any of your friends have set their privacy settings to not allow use of their timeline by third party apps, you won't see their posts.
Updated Facebook app today is way faster sometimes, but I'm also getting long hangs I never got before when tapping on notifications.
I generally on the N10 just look at FB in Chrome. Wish they'd get a tablet app out!

The latest update 121312 is really good... best version of FB app ever for Android.
Am I also supposed to get huge images in the timeline???
I have searched the web, no one seems to have this problem?
So since the new gallery app, I think it came with Android 5. Whenever I download an image, from web or from Google drive it is blurred in the gallery, it is also blurred when I load it up full screen.
I have disabled 'Auto Enhance' I am not sure what this does but thought it could be the problem, this has made no difference. I have to edit every picture I download from my google drive, and enhance the 'deatil' option and 'sharpening' to fix each one. I don't want to be doing this as this is no doubt a drop in quality.
I also experience this problem on my Nexus 7 same android version. However my Nexus 10 does not seem to be doing the same, or if it is it is a lot less apparent. maybe just due to the higher resolution and screen size.
Any help would be appreciated....
Has no one got any ideas on this? I could post it in nexus 10 and 7 threads to, but don't really want to spam the forum.

Did you try to do wipe data and cache of this new gallery as well as the hidden folder /sdcard/DCIM/.thumbnails?
If that didn't work for you, you could try KitKat's gallery app or a completely different one ( see Play Store)
Happy new year, by the way
Yup, having this same problem with my Nexus 4 running Android 5.0.1
Screen captures are also blurry and pictures transferred from computer to phone are same.
Any solution would be helpful
same problem
I used to have the same problem in 5.0 . I even confirmed with quick pic and some other gallery. Ever since i updated to 5.0.1 problem seems to be resolved. Still searching for a good gallery app. The apps i for from play store are way too slow.
