facebook app force closes - Nook Color Themes and Apps

I updated the app a couple nights ago and now it wont open and load anything, it hangs and then force closes everytime. I've uninstallled and reinstalled and it will allow me to login and it will work fine right up until I close the app and reopen it.
Any thoughts?

Had the same problem. I ended up reverting to the previous version with a backup.

Crashes for me too. I also went to a backup. Not sure what is that last version to work. My backup was from a month ago.

Mine too on CM7 Nightly 177 booting off an SD card. Hopefully they can get it fixed.

Have you fixed permissions? It runs fine for me,not a fan of it but it works.

Seems like the app is crashing when it tries to find your location using the (non-existant) GPS. Is there some way to inject a fake GPS position?

Install tetherGPS lite and start the client, it spoofs the app into thinking there is a GPS signal. Recent check ins load fine with this fix.

Are we sure it's not the app its self? the reason I ask is there are a lot of reviews of it not running for many.

Friend caster is more tab optimized than the normal app but still not a real tab app.

Why would you post this?
As of nightly 212, there is no built-in ability to fake GPS. This was never any mention of that ability on any changelog, and it certainly wasn't sneaked in or anything.
Facebook still attempts to access GPS and force-closes as of nightly 212 / October 6th (I'm guessing it is an incorrect or simply unhandled exception. Facebook for both Android and iOS are famous for having terrible programmers).
A fake GPS program is still required to use Facebook.

The Facebook app goes from bad to worse. Uninstalled.

Is there any other fix that doesn't require me to start the gps client every time before wanting to use facebook? What is the latest version of facebook I can get that will function fine without a silly work around? 1.6.?

[Q] XDA premium causes FC on Nook Color HC

I was so excited to be able to use a sponsored version of the XDA app on my honeycombed NC! Login works fine but as soon as I try to open a topic it causes a force close. Does anyone have a similar experience?
Thanks!
I am also getting a FC but when attempting to log in.

How are you using regular XDA on CM7? FC's on me everytime unless I use my framework patch. I'm on CM7v8. Thanks for any info you can give.
Sent from my "NookDroid" CM7v7 using XDA App
Well, I must say the same, the only reason I bought this app was to contribute to xda. I hardly buy any apis . Too many goods free apps on the market. but like you guys stated mine fcs when logged in cm7. If any of you find a solution please post.
It's not just HC. I'm on NF 0.6.8 customized.
XDApremium FC's on me when logged in and attempting to open a thread. When not logged in...no problems.
Just to add, I get the same thing. Something with authentication.
Ditto here, on a modified Froyo ROM. With both premium and free app versions.
Hopefully the app developers will see this and help us fix it!
Edit: seems tapatalk works fine though.
I can log in ( free version, froyo) and before I log in, soft keys works fine. After I log in, Soft keys makes the app FC.
Same issue. FC when exiting app or viewing topics, but only after logging in. I'm using the non-pro version.
I'm having the same problem on Phiremod 5.3 with the non-premium app.

Working MLB At Bat streaming

I got the MLB At Bat 2011 to pike up as a supported device.

Also works without having to change build/prop if you just install the 1.1.1 .apk...(you won't find it on the market thru a nook)........, but you shouldn't pay mlb anymore than you've already paid mlb....watching baseball games is one of our American rights. The price for the subscription is already retarded.

hmmm. I am running CM7 and Dalingri's 3/31 kernel. I guess I'll try to flash the latest nightly and kernel and try again. Thanks.
I got nightly 37 i believe, OC kernal 4/4, and latest gapps.
If someone could help, what about this app does and doesn't work? Is it just the streaming or is it everything? I would like to download this app to get radio streaming and live stats. I don't need streaming tv. If these functions are working, I will invest in the app...
So I got my cm7 and kernel up-to-date. It didn't help me. Same error. So I spoofed my location (to my actual location) and then it works fine. Not sure why this is necessary, but it is not a big deal. I'm just happy it works!
@mfdoomesq - the audio and gameday live stats work fine out of the box.

Are you still running a nightly instead of Stable? I'm getting the white screen problem on the stable build.
I bought the app from the Market(no TV package, just Gameday Audio), however my problem is the Gameday Audio part only works once after install.
It will play any feed, but if I exit, the feeds no longer play.
I get "uanble to connect" very frustrating.

Pink here as well. It seemed to be pretty fast from what I could tell.
App started up and I was able to log in fine. Then the onlive video started and i got to the main menu. (Everything was pink hued) scrolled through a couple menu's and then the app froze. Not seeing any free games form logging in with my phone either. Will be cool if they fix it!

[Q] CM7 A3.5 GTalk offline status

I just performed an install of cm7 a3.5 on a brand new touchpad and have run into a problem with gtalk. Gtalk shows everyone as offline after a short period of time and logging out and back in doesnt always solve the issue.
I wasnt able to find much searching on this topic. Does anyone else have similar problems or ideas for a fix?
Thanks!

I have the time set correctly. If this isnt a cm7 problem in general should I wipe and reload it? If so, what steps would be necessary to do so?
i hate using gtalk on the touchpad. the gtalk apps are just really buggy, imo. even on other phones i've had they've always had issues. if you really want the chatting ability just download any other messenger that supports gtalk.

I like the app and I dont like the extra junk in other messengers. I may just have to live with that though since noone else seems to have this problem.
i have that issue. also there's an issue when i log out where it doesn't really log me out or close the app.
i keep holding out hope that the ICS version will fix my complaints.
