Facebook for BlackBerry updated to version 3.0.0.17

Facebook for BlackBerry has received another small update today and the new version sits at 3.0.0.17. The update brings some bug fixes but unfortunately nothing new feature-wise. The app got a large update a few weeks back that brought added options, BBM connectivity and more. If you haven't upgraded since the last official release, you should definitely do so. Thanks quicksilv3r!

Since these apps like Twitter and Facebook have "upgraded" to include BBM connectivity, my Torch seems to be freezing over and over. I never had issues until I upgraded the last Twitter and Facebook.

Same issue on my 9900

It says right on the picture "fixed a freezing issue...". The full thing says fixed a freezing issue that some users encountered when becoming BBM connected... I didn't have this issue but I hope this fixes it for you!

Now to just add the ability to view by groups and this app will be perfect :)

I agree. That's a much needed feature.

You're welcome Adam :) I'm at work and haven't had much of a chance to see if the freezing issue has stopped for me

I downloaded the update and now I don't have a FB icon on my 9650. I rebooted, and still no icon.

You have a duplicate cod file. You'll need to use bbsak to remove it.

Blackberry App World is showing me that I have 3.0.0.15 installed, and that there is no upgrade available. When I go to the facebook app and check for newer versions, it says there is one available then takes me back to the App World, still no upgrades available. Weird.

View your installed appps in appworld. Press your menu button and look for refreshlist in the drop down menu.it will then give you the ability to upgrade the app when you select it. It happened to me too when I had to upgrade BBM

Adam's screenshot (assuming it's his) indicates a 3MB update. Mine shows it as a 2MB update...hmmm? Both are v.3.0.0.17

The quality of photos uploaded through FB for BB is bad. Photos uploaded through my wife's iPhone are of much better quality. :(

well, BB = data compression. data compression = image resizing. during the upload, all images uploaded through FB for BB are resized to a data-friendly size for faster uploads, no wonder why the picture quality degrades. if you wanna upload your REAL picture, use the FB mobile instead, nothing will be lost at all.

I have researched most reviews which all basically say the same...don't upgrade. The prob is most don't say which model BB they have. I have a 9810 nd use FB a lot. Should I download nd will it work fine or will I b part of the mass that have issues?
