As we all know, Facebook for Android sucks. 1.9.12 was the last that worked for me allowing sharing, statuses, etc before the latest version broke all that.

The following link contains downloads of old versions.

Delete current Facebook for Android (if latest)
DL apk and install like normal
DO NOT UPDATE through play store when it says you have an update. You'll be back at the new crap version.

@ OP- thanks!
It would be worth mentioning, that many other older apps work in devices not supported by googlePlay service.

Here
I've just been resetting/clearing faceaches data and cache to bypass the messenger download necessity, yes you still get the soon moving to messenger warning prompt but still not using messenger ;) and on latest release again lol.

Regards as always

Thank you so much. The new version forces you to use their stupid messaging app that wants permissions to everything (even to my fridge).lol
