Facebook for BlackBerry updated to v3.0.0.9 in BlackBerry Beta Zone

We all look forward to our favorite apps getting an update. While we recently saw an update to Facebook for BlackBerry, we're seeing that there is another update (now taking it to v3.0.0.9) and it is available to download from the BlackBerry Beta Zone. The update comes with a handful of bug fixes:
- BBM Profile Update doesn't include tagged friends from Check In
- Navigation Grid Does Not Open
- If user initially canceled BBM connection then changed the option to Connect from BBM, Facebook connecting to BBM process did not appear automatically after reopen Facebook
- Replies to Events or Friend requests through the device's today view is not working
- "What's on your mind?" is cutoff with large font on publisher
- Status Publisher - Friends picker screen is unusable in landscape mode
- Skip button in BBM upgrade dialog needs to be translated
- Posts being loaded twice
- "Connecting to BBM" dialog appears every time the user opens the newsfeed or reopen Facebook on BIS SN device
- BBM connected Profile Issue: The text in the dialog that opens when clicking on the application link in the personal message should not say the app is not installed or that the app is not available in AppWorld
If you have been encountering any of these issues then get the update now. If you are not yet a member of BlackBerry Beta Zone, why not sign up today? It's free and you can get access to downloads not yet available in App World.

I’m still wondering if they’ll ever get around to actually adding an “Events” page to the BB app. (Right now you can just response to invites, and poorly be notified of event page updates.) Seriously, this is a glaring omission and the most annoying deficiency about the app.
Quite surprisingly, the PlayBook app actually does have an “Events” page.
shebmiller Mar 13, 2012 at 11:53 am
this is true. Would be nice to access Events straight from the application (including event location, event wall, invited guests, etc...)

Kind of like how a "like" button is a glaring omission from the Crackberry comments section?
andino Mar 13, 2012 at 5:01 pm
And in app access to groups
Smartie020 Mar 13, 2012 at 11:38 am
Actually it´d be nice to be able to get access to my groups and friend lists right through the app itself rather than get pushed to the website...
Apart from that FB app works fine for me

Been up and running for about an hour, seems good so far.
Smartie020 Mar 13, 2012 at 11:40 am
same thought at the same time :D
yeah, event page would be also nice^^
swiedom Mar 13, 2012 at 11:44 am
Nice! I hated the bug where I couldn't reply from Messages
tnhrocks Mar 13, 2012 at 12:10 pm
But we still can't "like" a comment, events page, groups page. These should be basic functions of the app. RIM, what's stopping you from giving us what other platforms have had for over a year?
sk8er_tor Mar 13, 2012 at 1:18 pm
That's really the only thing I'd like to see added.
nickbettschen Mar 13, 2012 at 1:16 pm
is it working with 7.1?
mavricxx Mar 13, 2012 at 1:54 pm
Yes
mavricxx Mar 13, 2012 at 1:54 pm
I want them to add the ability to save your frined's pics to your phone. They used to have this feature long time ago and they took it away. I loved it cause I could save my family's pics on my phone when they posted new ones.
brkiko201 Mar 13, 2012 at 1:57 pm
U can capture the pic or go the the browser n u csn still save them
andino Mar 13, 2012 at 5:04 pm
That's a bit inconvenient though. Its doable but other platforms are able to do it without relying on the browser version. It would be more fluid if we didn't get pushed to the mobile site for groups, events, and some pics.
brkiko201 Mar 13, 2012 at 1:57 pm
U can capture the pic or go the the browser n u csn still save them

Just installed and re-started. All seems to be running smooth.
yvpan1 Mar 13, 2012 at 7:45 pm
seems it's good to have those bugs addressed & fixed. HOWEVER, with this build, is there any problem with sending comments or replies? with the previous v 3.0.0.6 any comment or reply i sent from the app was just.. stuck in sending mode..
SC457 Mar 13, 2012 at 9:49 pm
Seems like the sending comments and replies bug has been fixed. Seems to be working good so far.
PostMortem Mar 13, 2012 at 10:41 pm
Is it strange that i didn't run into any of the bugs that this new beta version fixes? Im running a leaked 7.1 on my 9810.
Glad to hear that those issues were fixed for those experiencing the issues.
