Unable to update Facebook app? - HTC First

I may have run into a weird bug. I cannot access Facebook in the playstore, and when I look at the version that came preinstalled on the First, it's version 3.0, whereas on my HTC, it's running 3.2.
Anyone else running into this?
It isn't a huge concern, as I'm giving this phone to my grandmother who doesn't even use facebook, but, I just find this endlessly odd.

That shouldn't happen. Have you tried visiting the "my apps" section of the play store and try the Facebook app that (should) show up there?

It doesn't show up anywhere. Not in the my apps section, and not when I search for it in the play store. Even on the desktop, the web version of the play store says its incompatible. It's a bit weird.

I'm getting the same thing. I just took a screenshot.

Hmm, Maybe this SKU of the first has mistakenly been blackballed from receiving facebook updates in the play store? If anyone has any other colors, I'd like to know if they are experiencing the same problem.

Same issue. Blue version.

same issue here white color ... even though it has nothing to do with color lol its something stupid with framework and the way facebook integrated everything

I have a black HTC First and was able to update Facebook to 3.2.1. However, this update was supposed to add the much need Favorites Bar (Dock) to the Home launcher. It is not working for me.
Anyone else seeing this?

Can Google make it so when my apps are updating, it only does it one at a time? The phone becomes practically unusable when 10 apps are trying to download at the same time. Super annoying.

just don't use your phone for a minute while they update
Maybe there's a possibility, like the netflix mod, to bypass the root check by someone that has the knowledge to do that sort of thing
If I install this, can I receive another Market update in the future? Or I should again install via APK?

Alright I think I have figured out that you cannot review content that was downloaded using the other market I think? Yeah it is pretty confusing if anyone could clarify this a bit more?

I manually updated this, works fine. I do have a problem though, maybe it's me ;o)
How do you manually update an App after installing this latest Market app.
Example:
I've installed the new market place and notice that the Amazon UK app had an update this morning. I have set this app to manual update, but when I open the app through the new market, the only 2 buttons are 'open' and 'uninstall', there's no update button.
Confused? I am... any ideas guys?

Why would market be difficult to use? You just browse categories or search for app you wanna download

Well, that's true! It looks really nice, and it is simple to use. There is just one problem that I found. Sometimes when there is an update for an app (don't know if it is random or some particular apps) there is no Update button, only Open button that will run that application. You can update that app only when you have two or more updates and update them all at the same time. Anyone experienced this?

Yes this is a known issue for the market update...as far as i know everyone has the same issue...

Agree on the updates and the fact it is sometimes slow. Wonder how much data it is downloading when you open it.
I think the new market is hideous!
looks like WP7 with all those tiles.

BBC News not compatible ?

Anyone managed to get the apk for BBC news as showing incompatible with the one ?
Weird as it works on other 4.1.2 handsets
Sent from my HTC One using xda premium
This might be something to do with the screen resolution that the handset? I remember seeing some thread on Modaco that mentioned that some apps in the play store couldnt be used because of that reason. Will try to did up a link.
I'm sure that it will be sorted out soon anyway.
Cheers
Here is the latest apk. It will install and update itself - https://dl.dropbox.com/u/16051659/bbc.mobile.news.uk-2.apk

HTC are aware of the issue with this app and several others and are looking at a fix.

check your build.prop file, it says anything other than M7WLS that would be why its showing up as incompatable

Oddly enough I made sure it did last night and its still not working :\
Ok I did it, go and setup the newest MaDoCo Toolkit, it give the option to fix the name in the build prop.. just fix it instantly and then it will show up in the playstore, I just did it and I love the app.. takes some time to setup but it's well worth it

No, because ps3 has no IR built in. You'll need a usb dongle compatible with the ps3. I use the nyko blu-wave receiver with my Harmony remote, I'm sure this will work with that too.

Error 403 driving me nuts.

I've tried everything I can, from removing accounts to clearing cache and data. I've removed the account and re added.
I bought dogcatcher with account 1.
If I remove account 1 and add account 2, it still thinks I've purchased it. I've removed both and added number 2 back. Same issue and so far only with this app.

Did I got it right? Purchased an app with Acc 1, get an error when trying to update it with acc 2? Or is it just showing as "purchased" with Acc 2?
Showing as purchased which is odd. I don't mind buying again. It just won't let me.

Also note the phone refuses to connect to anything Google related. Google.com times out, there is no option to add a Google account anymore, Gmail fails to sync, play store fails to connect. Is there a gapps for the one i can flash?

After much investigation, it turns out it was my network, three.
However, the problem with 403 is still present. It's got so bad, I've had to buy another podcast app to tide me over. Looks like Doggcatcher is off the menu. Shame, but I'm tired of pissing about with this.
I surrender. Voice recorder pro is doing it now. Any ideas?
Sent from my HTC One using xda app-developers app
Same. Even after wiping and only adding one account, it still does it with the same apps. There must be a more serious issue. I can't use apps I've paid for and have to buy alternatives.
Sent from my HTC One using xda app-developers app
I thought I would try again today, still the same thing. I've had to BUY 3 alternative apps because the ones I bought will no longer download. Sick of it.
If any of you guys are still there, I made this thread with a solution to help solve this error. http://androidforums.com/internatio...ror-24-insufficient-storage-space-solved.html
It turns out that there is some residue data from installing the app before which leads the app to not install. It's tested and worked for me. Please gimme a thanks if it worked.

Thanks man, but didn't work for me.
I did a search for anything doggcatcher related on my phone, not a single file.
The only option I can fathom is to find an apk of it. I've paid for it, I can't use it unless I pirate it. Makes sense.
