Facebook Lite was launched a while ago to allow faster surfing of Facebook on slow internet connection. Some users have reported problems using this lite version of Facebook. Most common being automatic login into lite version of Facebook instead of normal version. Following are few ways to disable automatic login into Facebook Lite:
UPDATE – Official way to switch between Facebook Lite & Regular
1. Manual Change of Facebook URL
After login, if URL is http://lite.facebook.com/ – remove word lite and try to access http://facebook.com for the normal version of Facebook.
2. Change Privacy Settings
While in Facebook Lite version: Click Settings, then click on Profile or Friendship link. You will get new screen to click on link that will redirect you to normal Facebook version.
3. Change Facebook Language
While in Facebook Lite version: Click Settings, and then click Language option. Chose language other than English and you will be automatically re-directed to normal version of Facebook with different language. Note: Facebook Lite only works in English language.
4. Clear Internet & browser history
You can manually clear internet and browsing history. Alternatively, you can use free software like Wipe to clean all the temporary data on the computer.
5 Flush DNS on the computer
Lastly, you can try flushing DNS cache on the computer and attempt to load normal Facebook. Click Start > Run and then type cmd in run box & click OK. In the black window, type ipconfig /flushdns and press enter. Then type ipconfig /registerdns and press enter.
Either of above way should fix Facebook Lite issue. If you know any other way to check on this issue, feel free to share with us by adding a comment.

A very simple way to switch back to your Regular Facebook
Go to Settings >> Default tab >> Regular Facebook
Well, this is how you got about it. While being the ” FACEBOOK LITE ” version, First click on settings tab. Then, search and click on Default Tab then, you will find two radio buttons select REGULAR FACEBOOK and click on SAVE.
Thats all Folks!

i hav tried a research and got this.this is really easy.
1)goto settings in your facebook(fb)lite.
2)click on ‘default site’ [ lite.facebook.com/settings/defaultsite/ ]
3)click on the ‘normal facebook site’ below.
None of the options work. It seems to be possessed. Would stop using facebook. I hate when websites force you do stuff..Hate Lite.
Click settings->default site-> regular facebook.
TADA. It’s the official way to remove lite

it really worked..thanku so much..was so frustrated with facebook lite..
thanx dude….i just had a nytmarish tym with facebook lite,…!
Yes really Face book lite is not at all good.
the easiest solution is:
go to settings.then click on the default site option which u can find under the account option.
d following q will then appear:
when i go to facebook.com,show me:
option 1:regular facebook option 2:facebook lite
select option 1
and click on save…thts it!!!..:)
Yew can do it very easily…just go to your setting on ur facebook lite an there u ill have an option to switch for Facebook normal..!!!!!!!!!!
guys,forget all these HI-TECH solutions
d best solution for dumb people like me is when in facebook lite,click on settings
den click on default site
highlight the option regular facebook
save it
restart u r browser
done,dats it
worked wid my account
trust me dis is d simplest way
and for d URL solution and all d 5 solutions,none of dem work
try my solution
its d best of all
Best thing just use another browser temp. till they fix all the damn issues on FB “light” – its so light that nothing works the way it used to!!!
Just use another browser!
GO TO THE BOTTOM OF YOUR PAGE WHERE IT SAYS “FEEDBACK”
then it asks if you’d like to give feedback for Facebook Lite, it also gives you an option to change back to Regular Facebook

Hey guy u can deactivate ur account and reactivate tru ur email
didnt work man, is it wrking 4 u??
after how long did u re activated?
I just dunno who the son of ditch created this fking idea of lite, If there was a lite edition, there should have been a option given to switch back, i Guess that this son of a ditches are running out of bandwidth, or some geek has hack into there setup. Anyways ive already lost interest on this fuckbook social networking site, i feel fuckbook moderators look into comments here. Give out an answer.
Well, I also tried all the tips and they didn’t help. Nor did the one on clicking on my name!! Everything brings me back to the sickening Lite. I’ve sent a couple of complaints to Facebook — why aren’t they reverting those who’re complaining to the regular interface?
i did try the laguage change option..but after dat i am nt able 2 log in into my accnct….
