Hi does anyone have Facebook app crashes consistently after the new update that T-Mobile pushed? ? It's getting annoying. Also the Automatic brightness control is out of sync! ?
No crashes here, but Facebook app is a power hogging app, I use my browser for facebook.

Don't use facebook app(except messenger), so can't comment on that, but auto-brightness seems to be fine.
Crashes quite often and videos stop playing for no reason. Also have issue with zoom in the app. Sometimes font is small and other times it feels like I'm viewing the landscape mode but holding my phone upright on portrait mode.
My Facebook all has never worked for longer than about a month for me, on any of my last 5 or so Samsung devices. It always crashes whenever I try to open comments or notifications, but it lets me scroll down my news feed for a few minutes.
Weird thing is that my spouse has never had any of these issues and he has the same phone.
Sometimes uninstalling/downgrading and reinstalling or clearing cache and app data will bring the app back to a usable state for a few days, but I just use Facebook mobile on my browser.
I encountered the issue during the beta phase of that Facebook version, prompting me to revert back to non-beta. Try uninstalling and re-installing it back. It may work

Has anyone noticed this bug with JPY?:
When you first boot and open Gallery it is super fast with all the thumbnails preloaded. After a couple of hours when you open it again it says "Loading images" and re caches the thumbnails again taking some time. This is especially evident in folders with a lot of images. It would be ok for an hour and then bam! Loading images slowly when i open it again.
Clicking on a folder opens it with the first four pics showing and then scrolling you have to wait a few seconds for the thumbnails to appear whereas when it initially booted all the thumbnails were already there. Its like it deletes the thumbnails after a while and has to generate them again which takes some time especially if you have a lot of folders and pics.
Is this normal, I don't remember this in my old firmware? Its the only thing that is bugging me. Maybe they force close Gallery after a certain time avoid the sensor draining bug that was there with the previous firmware?
Can you please check a see if yours is the same so i dont have to do a factory reset
you can download SGS tools from the markup and upgrade your gallary app.. that's what i did and i don't have any problems with the gallery anymore..
goodluck
The gallery app in SGS tool is not compatible with JPY because of the new feature of selecting wall paper for lock screen. I gave it a try but it would force close everytime i wanted to select a wallpaper.

Absolutely the same and even more.... I have my picasa account connected to the gallery too, after an hour mainly picassa the gallery crashes - black screen, but no force close. Actually this one, the battery (not 100% after disconnecting) and the contacts app not closing, made me go back to JPP.

The contacts bug can be solved by uninstalling the task manager's update.

Yes, go to manage applications, find it and click uninstall updates to go to the previous version, and the contacts app will be ok.

This morning I noticed that my NS suffered a heavy slowdown in web page rendering, got laggy keyboard and the whole system was draining battery like hell! So I opened the "show CPU usage" tool that figured out that the "Facebook.katana" process was using a HUGE part of the CPU. I FC'd it and everything went right as usual... anyone else suffering from this kind of bug?
Yes, It Happened to me too. FC seems to fix it. I'm now not getting any push notifications from the app. Are you?
I have this installed
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.zomut.watchdoglite
And Facebook kept popping up from time to time for overcpu utilization.
I found it best just to use another application, Facebook s app has always been the suck

I use the browser as it doesn't suck like the apps.
That watchdog app is a lifesaver!
i will install watchdog and see what happens... thanks
tho, the fb app worsens day by day...
lately I realise one thing, if I use the back button on the FB app, seems like it will not trigger the watchdog, however it will if I use the home button to "quit" the facebook app.
Hi,
As you know that the Facebook App in Xperia V is having a bug whereby you upload a photo in Portrait mode but it appear to be in Landscape mode after uploading to Facebook.
Do you all use any other Replacement Facebook App like FriendCaster etc or just stick with the default Facebook app?
I like to hear your recommendation, thanks.
That's not really a facebook issue. It's an android issue i think. Try copying the pictures on your computer and looking and the thumbnails. You'll see what I mean.

Sony support knows about this issue already, hope they fix it with next update.
FriendCaster is buggy on my V, even if I hide games from people they show up in the widget, otherwise very good.
So, I got used to take pictures in landscape mode now and its nice or just rotate them with the desktop Facebook.

Thanks for your reply. You are right that FriendsCaster is buggy as I encounter a few times that it actually crash when I open the app.

When I load an app, say for example, Google Keep, either from 'Start' or by voice. The app will launch and then my watch face will immediately pop back into view over the app. The watch then becomes unresponsive until I do the 'cover with palm' action. I'f I then go back and launch the app again it works fine.
Every time I need to use an app I am having to go through this procedure to get the app to work correctly.
Either I am the only one or I didn't explain the problem very well.
Having the same problem. I've decided that apps aren't going to work on this watch. Maybe that will change after the update.
Having the same issue with my G watch R.
Try blocking Google Fit notifications on the watch. I had the same problem with unresponsiveness and when I blocked Google Fit, everything is smooth again. You can still access Fit functions, but you just won't get the notification cards periodically anymore.

EDIT: I can confirm that has fixed the issue! Thanks very much dude!
i guys, I`d like to ask if any of you had issues with the spotify app on the s10...precisely my downloads keep getting deleted...talked with spotify, told me registration got corrupted....but this happened only on the s10..and it is a regular thing....to solve it had to hard reset, delete registration on spotify site, reinstall and redownload all...thought this would solve it, and it did...for a few weeks...but after a week of not restarting the s10, when i did, it deleted the spotify downloads...again.....and also, although it did work, no spotify player no longer goes to landscape....and in landscape i cant use the fb messenger bubles...you can? and I also feel like the whole system is somewhat unstable regarding app functionality...is it just me? I mean Oneui seems ok, and apps seem to work ok, but they make the weirdest crashes, like they`re crashing with the system....would like some points of view, experiences...
I don't use spotify and messenger in landscape but i haven't experienced any app crash. It's really stable here.
