Facebook updated to version 3.2.0.12 for BlackBerry smartphones
It's that time again for a Facebook update for BlackBerry smartphones. We don't see a huge amount of new stuff in this version but any improvement is a good thing as far as I'm concerned. Facebook has had a good run in the Beta Zone lately so you can expect this to be a solid build. Updates include:
New to version 3.2.0.12 are the following features:
- Enhanced Birthday Feature: Customize how your BlackBerry smartphone will integrate birthdays into your calendar. Receive a friendly daily reminder, with the ability to directly write on a friend's wall to wish them Happy Birthday.
- Improved Event Management: View Facebook event information and RSVP to events, as well as post comments to an event wall, view profiles of invited guests and receive event notifications.
- Updated Navigation Grid: Quickly and easily access key features such as your News Feed and Profile with updated icons. The Profile icon is now your current profile picture for a personalized touch.
You can grab the update free in BlackBerry App World from the link below. Thanks to @dwdsquared2!

Using the beta 3.2.0.9. In App World, it tells me there is an upgrade, but when I go to the FB download, it lists the 3.1 version. Tried uninstalling FB, but App World only had 3.1 available. Weird...

No upgrade in App World as of yet here in Atlanta, Ga

Just press the BB-Menu button in the "My World" and scroll to "Refresh List"

Here's hoping it's better than the last beta version. Doubt it, but still hoping.

Make sure you refresh App World. Open it up and type and hold ALT+R+S+T.

is this a joke? (bc theres no shortage of snarkiness here) How in the world on a C2!
alpinechem Sep 13, 2012 at 11:20 am
App may take up to 24 hours to appear in BlackBerry App World
dustanh Sep 13, 2012 at 3:02 pm
No joke.
Left alt+R+S+T.
You may have to do it twice in a row.

They finally added an events page! Its about damn time. That's been the #1 missing feature for almost as long as this app has existed. (and the PlayBook version has had it for quite a long time now) All I ask is what took them so damn long?

All 3 enhancements are so attractive! I am upgrading now! That's going to make my BlackBerry life even better.

Dude the updated navigation grid is bad ass!
the improved event management is awesome!
how can we forget the annoying birthday feature when you have over 2000 friends another great reason you can't forgot your friends birthdays.

I'm still not happy with the “search” it hardly brings results...
Rootbrian Sep 14, 2012 at 3:30 am
Well, that is Facebook api failing to properly channel search results data to the app.

Finally, I can see peoples' birthdays instead of looking on my computer.
