[APP] Facebook 1.6.3

---

This version includes features such as Facebook chat, allows you to tag friends in statuses, and home screen in landscape.

Please read directions as I am not responsible for anything the happens to your A7

Requirements:
Uninstaller for Root(Found in Market)
Root Explorer(Found in Market) or a Alternate File Explore App
Facebook 1.6.3 (Found here: www.apktop.com/facebook-for-android-1-6-3.html )

Open Uninstaller for Root, scroll down to the Facebook App and then click backup App, after click Uninstall

Next open Root Explore and navigate to /sdcard, once in /sdcard navigate to download folder will you will find and copy the file: com.facebook.katana.apk

Once copied you will need to paste apk file in /system/app (may need to toggle MOUNT R/O), after apk has been pasted, click on apk to install and you are all finished

facebook should be installable as a normal application. while the root related instructions are necessary for removal, i would just suggest tapping on the new facebook apk in the file manager to install ( w unknown sources enabled in settings/apps).

your facebook will be updatable via market after install that way, w out need for system app removal in the future.

Thanks,I just did it your way but the only thing i don't understand is how is it updatable if it doesn't appear in "My Apps" in the market?

mmm, manually installed apps might not show up in the old patched market, but i think they do in the new market (havent patched or ported that for a7 yet). i know i see manually added apps on my x10.

if you were to look up the facebook app in market, you may see it listed as updatable still, tho it may not show in your downloaded apps.

if youre not seeing facebook or the other apps youre posting in market at all (search), then youre not using my patched market.
