My Xoom has a awesome browser on it. But it is forcing me to go to the mobile site view. I realize it is based on a phone's OS but how to stop this behavior.
To turn off the mobile sites in the Xoom browser, touch Apps > Settings > Debug. You will see the debug option, select UAString, and then check the "Desktop" option.

Can not add facebook account on Xoom tablet
I have added my twitter, google and skype in Account's async under settings on my Xoom. But when I click the Facebook option under Add Account and have it do nothing. All the other options, such as corporate, email and google, take me to a sign in page, clicking on FaceBook does nothing.
I can't figure out how to fix the Facebook account issue. I am wondering if Google is going to end up leaving Facebook contact sync out of Honeycomb.
My friend have no trouble using Facebook in either the browser or the android Facebook application on her Xoom. Right now there are two ways to access Facebook. You can use the app, which works fine but does not seem to be optimized for Xoomtablets. Or you can get the full Facebook experience by using the browser.
