Social networking is one of the things that a huge number of web users enjoy when they are on their computer. If you are like me you probably find yourself sitting somewhere with nothing much to do and end up firing up Facebook or another social network to see if your pals are as bored as you are. If you are a big fan of the Facebook app for your Android smartphone there is an update for the app now available.
The new update brings the app to version 1.5.3 and adds some cool new things that you can do on your mobile. You can now tag specific friends in a status update. That would mean if you and a pal are at the same event you could tag them too like you do with pics. You can now also find a friend from the Android app.
Another new feature that the update brings is the ability to add a phone number to your profile. Apparently, the update adds a force close feature as well and that might not be something that a lot of people use. The update addresses and fixes various bugs too.

What’s with all the Android sites posting news about a three-day-old Facebook update as new?
The news I posted (on Android Police, the source) joked about the “force close feature.” Since the update, the app constantly FCs on users. It’s not a feature when an app crashes all the time. This author just doesn’t get it.
The AP post concentrates on the “force close” feature rather than the rest of them.
1.5.3 broke a bunch of things more than fixed. FC’s happen left and right. Luckily I had 1.5.2 on another device and pulled it off to roll back my phone.

can you send me the 1.5.2?
I just found it someone online.
Oh yeah! I really like the ‘new’ forced option of it force closing on me. It make me feel all fuzzy inside when I tap on Messages and the app shuts down with a force close message. Wow, what a great update.
I have not been able to use the FB app all day and trying to reset my phone and I’m getting android.setupwizard has stopped! Not even able to reset my phone now! What is up with android? Not a happy camper!
