so this started happening since i upgraded to android 10...basically it keeps saying updating and downloading feature for facebook, it goes away sometimes but comes back everytime i open the app
anyone had the same problem or any solutions?
also i need to use the official fb app as i work for a company called appen and that requires the use of the official app, otherwise would have switched to folio by now

i wonder if it has an effect on battery life cos it seems much worse on android 10 imo (although i did dirty flash)
I have similar "occurrence" with Google Chrome and after recent Chrome update i don't have this "issue" anymore.
So, do tell?!
Mysterious are Facebook's paths!

never had a problem with chrome but i froze fb with tb and only unfreeze it when i need it for work now...still so weird how no one has any idea what the issue is
1. uninstall both Facebook and Messenger
2. install them back from apk not Playstore
3. uncheck "auto update" for both on Playstore
For the workaround, uninstall the Facebook app that was installed using Play store and download an alpha or beta version of Facebook.
so downloading the fb beta version via apk seems to have sorted the problem for now...thanks to the 2 guys who suggested it ^
installing latest facebook beta version fixed for me
so issue is with facebook
same problem on xiaomi eu rom also with google Chrome and netflix

I am seeing a weird thing with the Facebook android app on my S7. Everything is working except for photos. Basically I see an exclamation triangle on top of every friend's photo and the same goes for all the pics in my albums. Has anyone of you seen this bug? Appreciate any response. Thanks.
PS: On my EVO 4G photos show up properly, so I know it's not related to a temporary glitch in Facebook servers.
Have you tryied to update the facebook application?

Yes, I have downloaded the latest FB app from the market, v1.5.2, and it has the "no photos" issue. The mobile web version of FB works fine and so I made a bookmark to it and use Facebook that way.
Still very puzzled why the app doesn't work. Do you have the S7? Does FB work on yours properly?
Yes I have an S7 and fb work great no problem with photos. Did you removed applications from system? ...because FB use the native android photo viewers.

I have it working now. All I had to do is uninstall the latest update(1.5.2) and go back to the factory installed version. The photos all show up.
Something is wrong with S7 and some app updates. The latest market FCs whereas the factory installed version works without any issues.
Everything seems to be working fine now on my phone. Finally figured out how to update my firmware. A couple of things that I noticed are:
1 - When touching a Facebook link on Blinkfeed, its does not take you to the post on your Facebook app anymore.
2 - The gallery app does not show pictures and videos for any online services. It only displays what is actually in your gallery. Before the update you would be able to see pictures from Facebook and other services. I have fixed this issue on my phone by just swapping the gallery app back to the version in Android 4.1.2. You can still select a track from your music library to use with a Zoe.

1. I get the same thing.
2. Not sure about that.
I haven't updated to 4.3 yet and I'm not able to go to a facebook link from blinkfeed. I think it may be something with facebook itself because it's been freezing up a lot for me lately as well.

I'm not sure if its an issue that came with the update or if they are just a couple of bugs from being rooted.

I am also on Facebook beta and the last update seemed to break this. I was not working before or after the update.
I guess one way to test this is by getting a non beta version of the Facebook app.
I was on Facebook beta and this broke before I even updated the phone to 4.3 It's a Facebook issue. I ended up leaving the beta, and I also did a factory reset of my phone because some FM radio service kept crashing when I was in the music player and it got irritating. Facebook works fine for me now.
Currently running unofficial CM13, but this issue has occurred on CM12.1 as well.
Every time I try to download the app, the actual download completes but the notification "Installing Facebook" just sits there forever. When I go back into the Play Store, the notification goes away, but the app isn't installed. It also causes any other downloads to lock up until a couple minutes have passed.
On CM12.1, it would download and install, but the installation process would take ~5 minutes.
I'm figuring it's probably an issue with the app itself, but I was just curious to see if anyone else is having this problem.
I face this problem quite often. Even updating the app is a hard task for me now. It either would take ages or doesn't install at all.
I don't know what could be the reason behind it but try keeping the play store window just as it is after touching the install button. It works for me at times. While the window is changed, it never installs.
Have the same. Installed FB lite.
same problem i have rooted stock rom. i thought that problem is due to download manager, my thread is also there at xda http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g-2014/help/change-stock-download-manager-t3252514
have the same problem, doesn't have an answer, but for me it became worse with CM13. on CM12(.1) it was just as you described, but now it slows down the whole phone, rendering it useless. I suspect it runs out ot memory.
Please post here, if someone has a solution

I think it's the app itself. Facebook probably hasn't optimized it for 6.0 yet.

It's not available in my country. Go USA, haha. Not really though.
Had the same problem. Downloaded the APK from APKMANIA and installed. It's working fine now.
Hope it helps!
I've had a similar problem, the issue was that I installed FB Messenger app before the Facebook app itself. Uninstalling both and then installing Facebook first, Messenger second fixed it for me.

They both seem to take a while to install. Probably because Facebook installs 300+ MB worth of data.
Hey, guys. While using Facebook and Facebook Messenger apk, when I try to share externally and select the Messenger apk, I receive "Messenger failed to load attachment." I'm currently on Lite 7.0, and I've tried another stock 7.0 ROM. Same issue. I've tried to uninstall the apk, cleared the data within Messenger apk, and have even tried to clear all device cache. Anyone else have this issue and know how to fix it? Thanks!
fix it???
solution.. remove anything facebook from the device
(just kidding, i just hate facebook on any of my devices, or anything related to)
Yeah, I know a lot of people are anti FB. I like it. Use it daily. And don't mind the cons. Just want it to function properly, lol.

dont mind me, i was just reflecting on my opinion of the app from a few years ago. have you checked if that function works for others btw?
It's borked in the latest beta also so..........
Sharing to Messenger using other apk works. Photos, G+. So, it does appear to be the FB apk on 7.0 then. I didn't have this happen on NP5.

maybe they just have to fix it for 7.0, but that would be on facebooks side.

It's with the fb app updates it was doing it with dp5 also
Click the three line menu button scroll all the way down and select report a problem. List what device fb app version number and what Android version you are currently running
And tell them what is happening. I just reported it also
Anyone have any idea why this would be happening?
This notification n shows 24/7 and I think it is killing my battery because Google play services is always using at least 20% of my battery
I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling Facebook to no avail

Thanks i will try it
I guess that's because miui has pre-installed facebook apps (system apps). I had this problem too, but gone with debloater tool (remove/freeze facebook apps).
PS: apologise for my English.
