apparently the stock browser works on wifi.. :O
is it my telco's issue ?
I've tried facebook, gmail, twitter, youtube, literally everything that requires mobile data .. everything works cept browser, that's why I rulled out the probability of my mobile internet having issue. It seems that I'm wrong .. D:
anyhow.. should I just wait then ?

It wouldn't hurt to call them up and see if there is a problem on their end that could be causing this. How long has this been going on? It might just be a network problem if this just started.

called em up, the customer care consultant said there was nothing wrong with their service at the moment :/

htc facebook no longer working

Anyone having a problem getting your facebook to sync? It was working at first but I removed it from the sync menu and re-added it and now all I get is connection errors. Searched on google for it but everybody that is having the problem can't get it back working.
Edit: I've tried reflashing, going back to stock, but I think it has something to do with the app and the facebook server?
Yeah its a problem with HTC they say that they are working on it as we speak but its been a few days now.

ahhhh ok cool, thanks.
Glad I found this thread. I switched back to an espresso rom specifically to get facebook for mytouch back.
Mine connects fine, and mine shows my friend's albums in the gallery, but it shows that I have no friends when I try to link them up in the contacts.
**EDIT: Seems to be working again.
Mine is working again too.

SMS Not working while data on.

This is my problem for almost a week. I can only send sms if i turn off my data package or if im conected to wifi. When im using my phone's data package (4G) i cant send sms. MMS works fine always. Problem is i cant be conected to wifi all the time or turnining off/on my data to use sms.
It happens on GB or ICS. I also returned to stock via odin and the problem is still there. I tested my sim on my other phone and everything works perfect. I can send sms no matter if my 4G shows on. But not in this phone. So it seems is not SIM related. I called tmobile and after endless steps and instructions i reboot my phone. It sent only 1 sms and second try failed...until now. I checked my Message Center number and its correct. When sms fails and i look into status it shows error code 1. Can somebody please help me???? I been using SEARCH...for a week....tried everythig i found Now...i need to ask for ur expertise.....thanks a lot in advance.

Hmmmmm i have no idea why this is lol. Have you tried using other sms apps like gosms and handcent?
For go sms you need to check the box that says your stock sms is uninstalled. Handcent uses their own service instead of stock's. Try those two out

Right now companies cant send sms while is connected to 4g ,
It is by nature that the modem to turn the 4g radio off , send the sms and turn it back up, u dont see it cuz it happends in a seconds. Or something like that

[Q] Facebook Toubles...

Is anyone else having issues with the Facebook app? It extends to every Facebook related application including Friendcaster as well as sharing to Facebook from Instagram.
The issue is one of the inability to access any Facebook information while using my data connection. If I switch to wifi it works flawlessly.
Any Ideas?
Yep having the same problem...glad to see its not just me

Same here. CM9 aero v10.
Using Stream, it's very slow if it does work at all.
Seems to work ok through wifi though.
I thought it was just me also. lol
I would love to see one of our devs jump on this and fix the damn app in minutes lol

Glad it's not just me having issues, I've tried every rom I got to get the fb app to load, if I'm on 3g ill get a few kb of data to transfer, then nothing I gave up and am using friendcaster, it's running as of now

I'm having the same issue on both my DINC2 and my Nook Color. Not having the issue on my Original DINC. The Facebook app will login and I can upload photos/comment on photos/comment on statuses, but I can't update my own status or post on someone's wall. It says "Unfortunately, Facebook has stopped" anytime I try to update my status. Very frustrating.
I can't login to Spotify, Foursquare, Instagram, or any other app that is linked to my account. I can't even login on Friendcaster. It just sticks in a login loop. On my Nook I'm able to login to Draw Something but that's it. (I know this is the DINC2 forum, I just wanted to throw that in there...)
I don't know how to tell the kernel version. Here is my phone info.

It has to be the Facebook mobile site servers because if you request desktop site it's fast. Facebook app has even gone to **** on my iPod touch

It's not a matter of being slow, though. Unless I am on wifi I cannot access it at all... also, apps that require permissions from Facebook (ie. Instagram, foursquare etc) won't be able to access Facebook to get the proper permissions unless I am on wifi.

OK so I'm guessing its either the ****ty FB servers or our custom roms.....I'm thinking its the FB servers
Sent from my Incredible 2 using xda app-developers app
Its not the ROM's - definitely a Facebook issue.
I am pretty sure they are trying to figure out a way to serve mobile ads thru the server similar to the desktop. It cant be a server issue, its Facebook - lol.
They can more than afford and service high quality servers.
I dont use the app on my phone (or my tablet) anymore cause it took up a lot of space even while 'dormant'. I found three processes running at one time.

Possible solution. Go to your security settings in facebook on a computer, Remove all of your recognized devices, clear data on the facebook app. Log back in. FB on 3g is working for me right now. We'll see.

I quit using the official fb app awhile ago, but recently I installed it again and I changed the permission to user r/w, and executable in rom toolbox and It's been about 6hrs now and it seems like it's running fine, probably got figured out on fb side and what I did probably meant nothing but figure I'd share anyway

[Q] wcdma or LTE

I have a Galaxy s3 for tmobile with jellybean and I dont know why but every time I try to go to facebook mobile ( using any browser ) it takes a lot of time for it to load, but if i go to google or any other pages it loads amazingly quick. So i dont know the problem but i read problems with data is because my mobile network is set to lte/gsm/wcdma ( auto mode) and obviously i know tmobile dont have lte but my question is should i change the mobile network to wcdma only or should i keept it how it is ? thank you for your time
The mobile page for Facebook is slow...is there a reason your not using the app? The wcdma is default...if you change it from what I hear it will revert back to wcdma again.

Before the Facebook Mobile page used to load very quickly for me... But About a week ago it started loading very slowly.. And I hate using the fb app. It loads slow over data.

I have noticed the Facebook page loads really slow on the browser. Started happening not too long ago. Have started using the app instead. I hated using the app before but the latest update seems to be working really well

The new fb app was completely revamped and written with native components instead of a shell to render html5 like in prior version. By going native, it is way faster now. Give the app a try.
If one site is slow while other sites are quicker using the same browser, I don't know why people blame it on the mobile network instead of the slow site. Just a thought.

very true... thank you all ill give the app a try once more
