I think this is related to issue 128 (see also dupe issue 152).

Sorry i no longer have the phone to try, but i think it has something to do 
with the password textfield. Try to go in a password textfield with an android 
device, type something, deselect the textfield and select it again. Then try to 
delete something you typed earlier. This doesn't really work.

This issue still exists.  I just tested FBDemo now on ICS 4.0.1, using Eclipse 
plugin 1.0.0.201207301849.  I'll document complete behaviour findings here 
although probably a couple separate issues.

1) When entering login id field for example, the user input is not shown at all 
until focus changes.  To the user, it feels like the app is not receiving your 
input until you touch somewhere else on screen.

2) When the Authorization screen appears, it seems to be showing a desktop 
version of the screen, so you have to pan to the right to see the accept/cancel 
buttons, as well as the permissions info.  I suspect this might have something 
to do with the User-Agent value being sent to Facebook.

I clicked Cancel button to deny access, and an odd-looking dialog appeared 
reflecting this choice, but then it proceeded to show me my wall anyways once I 
clicked OK and touched somewhere else on screen.  From the desktop, I checked 
my authorized apps, and the FBDemo was not listed.

See attached screenshots from device.

3) There is much other odd behavior, in that the pages are not very responsive, 
seems you have to touch the links and buttons a few times for them to register 
the input, and there appears to be long delays when displaying pages.  I 
suspect this is related to bugs in the WebView widget as described in issue 128 
and issue 152.

It also doesn't work on android 2.3.5. Same odd behaviour!

The first impression of the facebook login page is OK, but when you click on 
the username field, you cannot see the input and the fields seem to be 
overlaying each other.
