Root Fritzed Facebook after LeeDrOid 2.2f flash

I reinstalled all my apps from Titanium after flashing Leedroid last night, but Facebook stopped working - the programme opened up ok but wouldn't update (I suspect I may have messed this up when I reinstalled everything) so I tried to uninstall Facebook via Titanium in the hope that I could reinstall from the market. But that hasn't worked as Facebook has disappeared from Titanium but remains on my phone, recognised in Market as "Installed" and still not working.

I have found the Facebook app in the LeeDrOiD .zip file on my SD card via Astro (/mnt/sdcard/LeeDrOiD_v.2.2f_A2SD.zip/system/app/Facebook). When I select the Facebook file I get the "Application File" window up, showing "Browse File" and "Open App Manager" options. When I select "Open App Manager" I get two options: Uninstall or launch. If I uninstall from here, can I then reinstall from Market, or is it more complex than that?
 
Just uninstall it from Settings>Applications>Manage applications and then reinstall it from the Market

Can try it that way or can go into Settings> Applications> Manage applications and find facebook in there. Uninstall it and then reinstall from the market.

Let me know how you get on.
 
Try; Uninstall Facebook app. Go to the Facebook mini site, sign in, at the bottom of the page you'll find an install app feature as it will have already detected your phone. Good luck.
 
Ok, I've reinstalled from the LeeDrOiD zip (basically ran the app from the zip and it automatically reinstalled), but it still doesn't seem to want to work. When I start the app it refreshes, then gives the message "An error had occurred while fetching data [500/Internal Server Error]". I'm getting the impression this is more to do with me than with Facebook. Looks like a wipe and reflash is inevitable...
 
Do a titanium back up then wipe. See if it works then. If it does, it was your data / settings.

Once you know a wipe (factory reset), you can start to restore bits from titanium and by a process of elimination, work out what setting it is that causes it.
 
Well, I factory reset but for reasons best known to God that left some of the apps still on the phone so I ended up wiping anyway. I'm still getting the same message in Facebood when I try to retrieve / update the messages but I still have access to my wall, etc. I'm starting to think this isn't directly to do with flashing the ROM...

when you reflashed the rom does it say in the market that there is a facebook update required?

its not the rom itself as i use leedroid 2.2f and facebook works (ive not updated facebook as ive black skinned mine)

btw when you did a wipe, did you do it from recovery? you might want to wipe dalvic cache aswell
