[Android Apps and Games] ++chris++:
Today I had the update to 28.0.0.20.16 on a I9515 which I bought one week ago.

I don't know the number of the version I had before, but the chat worked well without Facebook Chat Re-Enabler.

On my last S4 it was the same including regular update.

First start of Facebook Chat the same screen as now in 28.0.0.20.16 popped up, but with a small difference. The left button next to "install" was named "ignore".

Later there was only a small hint at the button that they recommend the messenger.

In 28.0.0.20.16 instead of "ignore" the button is "know more" ("erfahre mehr" in german) and I even cannot see the chat list. Clicking on "know more" shows an info page.

So now I tried your Chat Re-Enabler. It changes one thing.Clicking on "know more" shows the chat list. But if I click on one of the chats only a popup to install messenger turns up.

I then tried several older versions with and without Chat Re-Enabler.

No matter what version, everything is 100% identical to the newest version.

It seems, that the newest update leaves something on the phone, even after uninstall.

Or maybe I only found the wrong old versions.

Why don't you just install v27 and use that for another week til the update comes out. Theres small difference between v27 and v28 and I'm sure it won't hurt to use an old app for a few more days. The developer isn't responding to any posts so.. :crying:

I Don't know what to share, bro. I just installed Facebook then this apk and it just worked. lol

Try to uninstall Facebook through your settings so you'd clear its cache and data before you uninstall it. Then reinstall it from the play store and sign in. After that install this apk.

[Android Apps and Games] ++chris++:
in case somebody else has the same problem as I had with returning to old versions and chat enabler not working.

I found a solution for me.

Before uninstalling version 28 not only clear the cage and the data, but empty the RAM after that as well.

after installing 27. 0. 0. 25. 15 from APK MIRROR it worked again.
[Android Apps and Games] AntaresOne:
Remember that there are 3 Facebook versions:

1 for Android 2.3+ (API 9-13)

1 for Android 4.0+ (API 14-19)

1 for Android 5.0+ (API 21)

Even if same version code (example: 27.0.0.25.15) is not the same apk...

Trying to install minAPI21 on an Android version less than 5.0 will give bad package, trying to install minAPI14 on an Android version less than 4.0 will give the same.

I'll add today all versions of Facebook v27

Another way to chat with Facebook 28.0.0.20.16:

Install Facebook Messenger, disable it in Androids App Settings => Facebook Chat is working again.

This is indeed not a very good one...

Maybe Facebook now checks the size of the package com.facebook.orca :confused:
[Android Apps and Games] Segnale007:
Also another way to mock this shame around is to install Facebook messenger, login in with your Facebook account and frozen it with Titanium backup. Now you can use messages from Facebook app and can forget about it

You need the Facebook apk for Android 5.0+. I added in my AndroidFileHost account the 27.0.0.0.12 version (I'll add 27.0.0.25.15 as soon as I find its multiple apks)

Rollback to Facebook v27 how-to:

Uninstall currently installed Facebook

Download v27 according to your Android version (check in Settings->About device->Android version):

Here from Android 2.3 to 3.2

Here from Android 4.0 to 4.4.4

Here from Android 5.0 to 5.1

Install downloaded APK file

Install Facebook Chat Re-Enabler if it's not installed

Chat again without Messenger :)
