Hey guys, sorry if this has been covered already:
Ever since my HTC One (Sprint) received the OTA update to 4.3 it's had issues showing the Facebook photos for my contacts when I go to my messaging app. Sometimes they'll display, sometimes they won't. It seems to be a problem more on wifi than on 3g or 4g. They still display fine in People (though my own account at the top has a default photo always now).
Anyone else experiencing this?
My phone is stock everything, never rooted.
I'm also experiencing this. Bugs the crap out of me. I have yet to find a fix, so if anyone else can chime in, that'd be great.

Yeah, it's bugging me as well
Bugging me as well! Went into messaging app and cleared cache, which brought em back, but we'll see how long that lasts!
I am having the same issue with my att version and have yet to update to 4.3. I can't remember if Facebook was updated before the issue started

Yeah, that didn't last long!
I've tried this and so far it works, 30 step volume is according to the op http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=46042037&postcount=6993
Hi i have an s3 mini with stock firmware and facebook or whatsapp crash regular, then the phone starts to reboot and the phones battery is drained to almost zero. I did a reset and installed everything back again. But the same problem appears with Facebook or whatsapp. Is this because of a firmware update or a facebook app update. For the rest it works normal.

I don't know if this is related to the app itself or the phone so I don't know if this is the correct place to ask. I'm using Sony's Lifelog app on my Z1 and it works as a total s**t. It measures everything but when I enter the app to see results, I have to press Refresh lots of times before it gets refreshed. Sometimes I even have to close the app and reopen it or just wait. There were several updates but the problem isn't fixed. Sometimes it starts working normally and after some time, same problems again. Now I'm trying to see my results but it won't refresh again. I keep pressing refresh, I get the "Refreshing" message which disappears after few seconds and that's it. I tried reinstalling the app, it sometimes fixes the problem for a short time and later it appears again.
It should be refreshed instantly. Is there a problem with my phone or this app is done by the worst programmers ever? I just can't understand how something like this can happen.
PS. Yes, my 3G/4G is on and fast enough. The same is with WI Fi.

So I have had three ROMs now - resurrection, cm 12.1, and computerfreek - and all thee have the issue where the top left part of screen becomes disabled to touch. A restart fixes for a few. I got a message to disable chat heads in FB messenger but it didn't help. Any ideas?
I also have this issue. I'm inclined to think it's a hardware problem, since although it didn't start happening until after I unlocked the bootloader, it's persisted through many different ROM installations.
I too am having this problem restarting the phone fixes it for a wile running CF rom as well any ideas on what it might be would be much appreciated

We can't be the only ones with the issue
Same problem
I'm having the same issue with CM 12.1 on my T-Mobile Note 3 (Sm-N900T) and rebooting also temporarily fixes it.
I'm trying to narrow it down, does anyone else use PocketCast?

Facebook Messenger
Same problem here... I saw somewhere that Facebook Messenger is the culprit. I uninstalled it, and no problems since... But I really need the app for work and personal use. Seems crazy that an app can cause this problem!
It's the Facebook messenger app that causes this. It happens to other phones as well.
My Xperia Z1 c6902 some apps. , mx player, messenger, facebook app, messenger lite, are autometicaly crushing & when I launched the apps the device got hangs & auto force restart the device.
I tryed factory data reset and also system repair from PC companeion. But it does not worked. When I reset the device it work well 2/3 hrs & then starts the problem.
What to do now.
I think i have the same problem now. As soon as device starts it freezes, gets unresponsive and then restarts itself. Problem started today. Dont know what to do.
Latest facebook app made the same problems on my device. As soon as any app that usess facebook login would start(instagram, tapatalk etc..), phone would crash. After uninstalling facebook and installing older signed version of facebook every thing works ok.
I've read that every Xperia Z1 user have the same problems.
For now I uninstalled facebook app and installed Facebook Lite and everything seems to be good.
However I cannot understand how could facebook hang the phone and restart it. Shouldn't Android kill fb app instead?
same with my z1
22th night was ok 23th morning was ok. after 10am i had the same issues. dont know if an update rolled through though.
also tried to repair through pc companion but still same issues. device crashed even in mid of backup session so i was not able to full backup. advice for those who are going through it now is to backup piece by piece at a time. dont try full backup at a time because it will freeze at some point anyway and restart, backup will freeze.

Same here, 23th afternoon instagram, facebook & Clash Royale can't be accessed.
Got freeze then force to restart.
I've done the factory reset twice and flash it using flashtool seems work as a brand new phone, but after running 3-4 the problem cameback.:crying:
As i said apps that use facebook login will crash with facebook installed. Use older version of Facebook(pre june), signed version or facebook lite.
all problems above is on my Z1 now , crashing and heating and facebook app cannot opening !

Hi all,
I have a similar problem with my Z1. But I don't have any issue with the Facebook app in my other phone (OnePlus 3T).
So, it may not be Facebook app in general. My Accuweather app also getting crashed quite frequently. Are there any updates for Xperia Apps recently?
Thanks

I'm facing the same issue... My device was working fine until 4 days ago, but then I went and updated the SU Binary Files.
After that, my device went into a boot loop.
I restored using "Sony My Companion", the device turned on (with factory settings) but it was presenting this issue...
I tried formating again with the same build, nothing changed.
Now I'm using the Kryptonian Custom Rom, but the same issue is still present...
Almost any app can cause the freeze>reboot. Alarm Clock Extreme, WhatsApp, some bank apps weren't working at all... I don't see how they are related to Facebook.
Just tried unninstalling Facebook and let's see what happens now...
EDIT:
Actually, believe it or not, but it seems that after unninstalling FB the issue went away.
At least I can create a new alarm now... I wasn't being able to do that before, app would crash 100%.
Same Problem Here
I had same problem my phone get crazy. Guys can someone made a download list for latest working version of apps. It can help us very well
You can found old version of apps here instagram.tr.uptodown.com/android/old
Hi
I had a same problem and the last stable version of FB is the 128.00.26.68.
Install it and there is no problem with Z1.
Hi y'all.
I have the same problem.
I've tried resetting my phone twice but the problem is still here.
Now I'm about to wipe my phone out of data than I'll tell you if it works or not.
Same problem with z1 compact users. Sony ****ed up something. Reinstalling system doesnt help either. I think problem is in crash monitor since it keeps crashing. Irony
same here, I'll try uninstall FB
I have this problem with Z1 and couple of Z Ultras, 2 out of 3 tested and fixed with uninstalling fb.
talk about planned obsolesence... imagine someone out there still using Z1 and not knowing about this, they might as well just think their phone broke and they need a new one... such a crazy bug
same thing happened to me after the 14.6.A.1.236 update
