Cannot log in to Facebook if the Facebook application is installed

Question

I am using the latest version of Facebook SDK 4.0.1 and the following code to login to facebook:

private class FacebookLoginCallback implements FacebookCallback<LoginResult> { @Override public void onSuccess(LoginResult loginResult) { AccessToken facebookToken = loginResult.getAccessToken(); loginOnServerWithFacebookToken(facebookToken); } @Override public void onCancel() { Log.d("facebook", "login canceled"); } @Override public void onError(FacebookException exception) { Log.d("facebook", exception.toString()); } } @Override public void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) { super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data); // facebook action result facebookLoginCallbackManager.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data); } private void loginToFacebook() { // initializing facebook facebookLoginCallbackManager = CallbackManager.Factory.create(); LoginManager.getInstance().registerCallback(facebookLoginCallbackManager, new FacebookLoginCallback()); ArrayList<String> permissions = new ArrayList<>(); permissions.add("public_profile"); permissions.add("email"); LoginManager.getInstance().logInWithReadPermissions(this, permissions); } 

When the facebook app is not installed on the device, everything works as expected. But if I install the login process to the facebook application, this will not work. All that happens is a circular progress bar in the center of the screen, than the facebook application blinks for a moment and nothing happens - I see my application in the same state as before pressing the login button. In logcat, I found one interesting post:

I am using multi-dex.

The Facebook SDK is included in gradle:

 compile 'com.facebook.android:facebook-android-sdk:4.0.1' // facebook 

How to log in through the native facebook app?

Edit: This question is NOT a duplicate of the Android class not found . None of the given answers solves the problem.
