Yes. Uninstall and try again.
I am also getting an install error.
I have tried to uninstall the existing 1.1.1 version using the Expsetup but still won't install.
I'm thinking that clearing all associated data for facebook would help but don't know the directories etc that I would need to delete.

That did it, thanks!

Where to get Facebook 1.1.2?
I unistalled V1.1.1 but still cant install new version 1.1.2!!! went to aplication manager and found a file that says com.facebook.katana but doesnt let me do anything with it.
Any ideas?
If you're having problems uninstalling, that's because you used an update.zip and it is installed in the system/app folder. You have to use terminal or adb to mount the folder as rw to remove it.
My question, though, is it better than the one from droid? Cuz if not then I don't want to waste my time updating...

Anyone mind upping the APK? Removed all traces of FB from my phone and packages.xml and it still refuses to install.

Most importantly would be to ask how do you get your system back to normal so you can install updates later.
I know at one time I messed with my prop file to install the Nav at one time. I wonder if that could be a problem. I removed the Facebook app, but it told me it wasn't compatable so I wonder if it that prop file is affecting anything.
Put the original build.trout.prop file back in the /system folder. Deleted the old Sholes/droid version via the market and it installed without a hitch.
It doesn't seem to like a modified prop file.
To me personally it looks just like the droids version except the white bar at the top is fixed.
Heres the line you want to change back.
ro.build.fingerprint=tmobile/kila/dream/trout:1.6/DRC83/14721:user/ota-rel-keys,release-keys
or upload this buid.trout.prop file to your /system folder. Just drop the .txt from the end.
EDIT.
After fighting a bit with the prop file I ended up just reflashing the rom that I originally installed which over wrote the modded prop file. Now I'm back to the orginal file and then I used the APK provided here.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=5147596&postcount=16
After that I uninstalled it via the market and reinstalled it now I'm back to where I should be.
So you could use that stock prop file, but after 5 or so tries it was sorta mixed results.
Anyone got the apk? I tried the site posted above but nothing happened.

Greatly appreciated.. This will help out many.
what commands in terminal to mount the folder as rw to remove it?
i used a script to switch my build.trout, but i used the script to switch back to the old one and i can't get FB to install. i never did anything to mod these for the nav and FB a few weeks ago.

I've searched around a bit (maybe not as long as I should've), but I don't see how to remove the stock bloatware apps that come with this phone.
Can someone point me to a guide, or give me a quick run down?

Just download Titanium Backup form Android Market and you can delete apks easily. HTH.

Maybe I'll try that. Do you have to actually do a backup/restore process before you can remove them? Or can you just remove them from the app itself?

You could do that but then ur left with a /data/data folder for ur app and its name under packages.xml.
The other thing that kills me is that a lot of these apps keep popping up for now reason. I run "Advanced Task Killer" on a frequent basis, but I'll find apps like "Slacker" sitting there, taking up memory.
I know a lot of these apps are set to run on startup.... but why are they just starting up at random times?
I feel like I have so little control over this phone... it actually scares me. I knew everything my WinMo phone was doing at all times.

I went to Samsung Firmwares and got the UGJG8 firmware and flashed that using Odin and 512.pit. You will get a 100% bone stock i9000m with no bloatware.
Just remember to write down your current APN settings as you will have to readd them.

Its like uninstall a windows software. Your deleting its c:\program files directory whereas im going to "uninstall software" and following procedure.

Got it.
Now, is that a script I need to write for each app? I haven't even gone so far as to explore the file system, let alone write scripts. Is there a good (recommended) app for putting scripts together? ...or are you just using a notepad type editor in Windows, then copying them over via SD card?

Sure u can write a quick .bat script that does this or manually enter them in command-prompt up 2 u. Btw, what exactly is ur issue with the bloat-software ? is it the space its taking up ? or being shown in app drawer ? Cuz if ur using launcher-pro u can hide those apps from the drawer. Honestly they don't take up tht much space.

Well, the biggest thing is that they're actually running without me opening them (eg: Slacker). That is really starting to piss me off. Secondly, they are very clutter-some. I don't have Launcher Pro, though I've heard good things about it. Is this something I get from the Marketplace? It runs instead of the Samsung interface, right?
**EDIT**
Just found "LauncherPro" on the Market. Looks good, but many are complaining the latest version is laggy/buggy and has obnoxious ad placement.
Does anyone have the next most recent version?

So would this be ok to install right now, or wait until I possibly flash the bone-stock firmware (which ironically would eliminate the included apps)?

Some elementary googling has led me to either 'AndroZip' or 'Download All Files' however I can't dissuade myself from believing that a lower-level solution, such as a flashable zip or something along those lines, exists somewhere. Does it? If not, what's the best way for dealing with this?

It is because the browser doesnt know what to do with the files. That is the reason I never use the stock browser. Like I said grab Astro from the market and you will be good to go.

There is nothing that you can do about it with the default browser. It is one of the probs with the basic browser, there are ways around it and they all come from diff browsers or getting a different file manager like astro or Root explorer. There is no update zip that will fix this without rewritting the browser apk.

I thought the issue was with file associations and not the browser; and that would make sense, considering I have nothing for handling .zips or .docs and I guess .apks were not meant to be installed this way. Astro automatically creates assocations for a lot of filetypes--did I understand wrong?
However, it doesn't seem as easy as I thought--no wonder since it hasn't been done already--as Android seems to have a funny way of handling associations...

Its is as easy as installing a file manager that will work. It has been a known issue for as long as I have had an android device. One of the reasons I paid for Root explorer.

Here's a Google engineer's take which says that Android doesn't know what extensions are. However, the linux kernel has a feature-set for this. I do seem to have the /proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc directory, although it is empty; which of course means I fail this test for the support of this feature.
I'm in over my head technically so I think I'll stop right here.
When I run Netflix, it asks me if I want to update. If I answer OK, it cannot find the updated version. Netflix does not show up at all in the Market. I wonder if the edited build.prop causes this.
I just set up a NC for the wife, found the previous Netflix apk and loaded it, but did not modify the prop file...it works, but still gave the same "update" message (but no update apk). Anyone hear from Netflix on this?
I have a HTC Dinc today there was a update for netflix. So maybe just need to sideload the apk. I will try and find the the apk on my Dinc and try it if it works I will post it. I just tried the one from the one from Dinc it worked and took away the update crap. Now if someone can tell me how to add the apk to here I will post it.
I would appreciate the apk if you can post it.

When you create a post, scroll down to Additional Options and there is a place to attach files.
I tried editing build.prop to change from Vision to Dinc, but the Market still couldn't find the Netscape app.
Duh, it's not Dinc but Droid Incredible (neither that nor Incredible worked either).

I installed that and Netscape said that the service is not available on my device.
I looked at the file and it changed the manufacturer line to HTC, but left the model as NookColor. Editing this line fixed it again, so it appears that the Nook Fixer app needs some more tweaking.
Too bad, as it requires many fewer steps than editing build.prop (I use Root Explorer, which allows me to mount the partition as rw).
I tried your fix and I still have the problem anymore suggestions anyone.
I figured that it was because CM7 updated to a newer gingerbread version in the nightlies and netflix isn't compatible, therefore not showing up for an incompatible device in the market

You're whipping my ass with this Netscape stuff.
So I often watch TV show episodes on the websites for CBS, ABC, and NBC and just today for the first time I tried doing so while tethering to my phone using the Mobile AP. When I clicked on an episode, however, I received an error telling me, "This video is either unavailable or is being blocked by an ad blocker installed in your browser." The thing is, I definitely don't have an ad blocker installed in my browser; and, when I disconnected from my phone and instead connected directly to my ethernet, the video worked fine right away. I tried it for shows on NBC.com as well as ABC.com and received similar errors all pointing towards Ad Blocking software. Has anyone else ever experienced this or does anyone know the relation between tethering to Mobile AP and an Ad Blocker detection? Any help would be greatly appreciated as I have two laptops and only one ethernet hookup, so I would like to be able to have good internet connected to both at once.
No one huh???

Ohhh wow I didn't even realize that ad-blocking came built into ROMs. I just quickly checked in /system/etc and did see the hosts file, opened it up and checked out the text. I tried renaming it but it was read-only, and root explorer wouldn't let me remount as r/w. I guess I'll look into it more tomorrow. But I would imagine I wouldn't want to just straight delete it right, as whatever ads it was blocking would no longer be blocked? I could just rename it any time I encountered errors while tethering to my laptop?
Does reverting through Adfree simply delete that hosts file?

I don't think I did. I just updated the su binary and when I reopened root explorer, superuser asked me if I wanted to allow root access to root explorer. I've read that before somewhere of people having trouble remounting within the /system folder. It let's me remount on folders outside /system, just not inside it. I still haven't figured it out. I suppose I could use terminal emulator right?

you were exactly right TR. i renamed the hosts file and re-tethered and i no longer received any errors about ad-blocking software. not to say the video is actually working too well tho - just keeps freezing. i guess streaming tv episodes while tethered to your phone isn't the best idea. anyway, thanks man!
