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.
Heya, for some reason my galaxy adds 2 hours to the events from Facebook. Is this something I can fix on my own, or report to Facebook or Samsung?

Hi all,
I also faced the same issues but no problem when reached the normal web site. I don't know what its belongs to, i just send a bug report to fb dev team and hope they can have a look. Is someone here not using SGS but Froyo installed device and have a try?

Facebook, Yahoo Messenger and Skype suck balls compared to the iphone/ipod versions
sad but, its just better to use touch.facebook.com this time, other than uploading pics/vids
Somebody posed this question around 6 months ago and I am curious what most people like these days. I know some changes have been made to some of the apps out there. some for the better, some for the worse. I personally am partial to Tweetdeck. I find it user friendly and also like how I can exceed 160 characters.
anyone else?
I enjoy Twitter for Android, but I have used Twicca and it is quite nice.

I use Plume. The ads on the free version don't really get in the way. I've tried them all, keep coming back to Plume!
Twitter seems to be slowly kicking out the third party apps that coincidentally help make them famous on Android. I went from Twidroid to Plume and finally just made the move to the official Twitter app.
I use tweetcaster

I did the same thing. The official twitter app is actually quite nice! Twidroyd is garbage now. But plume is still an excellent app.

I don't know about most of you but my Friend stream does not work with Twitter, and hasn't for awhile now.
Did use Twidroyd, using Seesmic now.

My Facebook has been stuck on old news feeds starting from about 6 hours ago. Meaning, that everytime I open up the app, feeds from 6 hours ago are noted as the most recent. When I manually hit refresh, then it corrects itself and all the real recent feeds come up. Any ideas?

try cleaning the apps cache, and restoring to defaults. see if that helps. ironic, and now that i'm thinking about it since Google Plus came out i don't think i used Facebook but more that about 6 times since i went live on G+.
Thanks, that fixed it. Don't know why I didn't think of that. Google+ is great but after the initial excitement, everyone in my circles started getting over it and the activity has died out. Kind of a shame because I really did like what it brought to the table.

All of my "in real life friends" use facebook. But i tell you what, i'm just waiting for everyone to migrate over. It'll happen.
Trying to figure out which one you guys feel is the best for our tf101. What do you think?

I use friendcaster. It might not be perfect but this is much better than the official Facebook application. The official is very slow and is pretty useless in low network connectivity condition.

Since all of the browsers and apps are terribly glitchy for me, the best solution is using Splashtop HD to remote desktop my computer and view from there... Rather roundabout but it's fast and Doesn't Glitch!
I think there are three real tablet Facebook apps:
FaceDroid (paid app)
Friend Me
Friendcaster.
I'd say Friendcaster is the best one, gives you a very nice Facebook experience with all needed features and a nice UI, plus good widgets.
Definitely not the Facebook app! Too clunky

how is that facedroid app? I heard its pretty good as well. Anyone have any experience with it?
Sent from my Transformer TF101 using xda premium
I like facedroid,but I think that fbm is better . But with facedroid if you have a problem or find a bug and report it to the developer, he will E-mail you back within a couple of hours on how to fix your problem or within a week or so you will see an update that fixes that bug.So the great support is worth the money alone.But it does show those pesky game updates in the feed like anyone needs to see that jeff married his cousin on farm ville.Without the games in the feed it would be the best fb app in my opinion.

hmmm interesting. What is fbm btw? Anyone else give a +1 to facedroid? Gideo how is the UI compared to friendcaster?
Sent from my Transformer TF101 using xda premium
I've never tried friendcaster,but the UI is pretty clean,and fbm has a nearly identical look to the official fb app with the ability to upload pics and post YouTube links and has notification,but it does not crash,and when you open it it just works....best part is when you turn it off it is off and does not use 30 to 50mb of ram all the time like official fb app.

Use the default facebook app or facebook website if you want to see all your friend's posts.
Use third-party apps if you don't mind missing posts, but like the customization.
Remember, third party apps can be blocked by your friends so they not only see your posts, but you don't see theirs either.
Unfortunately, the stock Facebook app is a memory hog, but it works.

Not only is it a memory hog but it kills sleep eating up your battery. So get your friends to allow 3rd party apps to see their posts.

I've been looking for one too that works 100%, I love the look of Friendcaster Pro and have been using it for 6+ months but it screws up a lot and either doesn't post my comments/status updates or when I try and load something it will be like "Friendcaster received an invalid response from Facebook". The notification Window annoys me on the official app because it's so tiny and only shows about three or four things, not to mention I still can't figure out how to share things from it. Is it even possible to do so?
I'll give Facedroid a try and see how it is.

Friendcaster is good.
Using Firefox beta (v14) with agent set as Desktop/ipad is also good enough. (Desktop-like interface)
