you cant share link with text on FB using Share Intent, You must try to do this the FB graph API for wall post .

The problem you have here is probably that Facebook doesn't look at the extra information provided in the Intent. Because it works for Gmail and Twitter.

Have a look at Android and Facebook share intent by the way..
