Facebook Version 1.6.0.22 Launches Bringing OS 5.0 Compatibility! By Bla1ze | 22 Sep 2009 22:42 | 
129 comments
 *UPDATE*-Seems as though users who are NOT running 5.0 OS on their devices are having issues with downloading, OTA links can be found in the comments for users running anything less then 5.0. One of the major concerns with running a leaked version of OS 5.0 has been the fact most RIM designed applications were not yet compatible with OS 5.0. Facebook is of course one such application that until earlier tonight was among the non working applications, but RIM has rather quietly updated Facebook to version 1.6.0.22 which does indeed make it compatible at this time. So if you have been running any of the leaked version 5.0 operating systems and been missing Facebook you can grab the updated version and be back in business.

nice!
:) sweet, I am going to go download this now!
Come on RIM! now fix BBM so it will run! Please?
umm bbm works on 5.0
I don't have any problems with BBM working on 5.0.0.230.
is it the BBM 4.7 or 5.0 version?
I just went to the mobile site on my Tour and its prompting v1.6.0.21 still? anyone else?
Same here. What's the deal?
checked on Telus Storm and Rogers Bold, when you goto Rim's page then to the Facebook download, it shows 1.6.0.21.
This story is bogus.
Same here, I still see .21 not .22, even after clearing my cache and doing a battery pull.
Still shows as version 1.6.21, after I select it from the Social Network set of apps.
Or am I missing something?
I guess I'm not the only one.
Clear your caches, clearly u can see the download page does indeed exist, cause you know...we would always post fake news here..lol! But then again, RIM has been pulling stuff left and right.
you should pull this news posting, it's false!
Have you read the forums lately?
I just checked on three devices, and 1.6.0.21 just shows up. So yeah, I don't need to read forums to tell me that this news posting is false.
Are u even running a 5.0 device?
I think the update only shows for users with 5.0 not 4.x
Facebook app on my 5.0 OS from the Blackberry Mobile site. sorry dude. The post is true.
Through www.mobile.blackberry.com>Social Networking>Facbook, It is indeed.22, and indeed is compatiable with any possible...5.0's, so 'tis true! :D
I came across the same thing with my Storm WishinItWas
Weird, whats with all the posting, getting everyone excited, then taking down lately?
confirmed FB working on 5.0.0.191 on BB Tour. I downloaded from the shortcut to FB download that is in the applications folder. It should also work from mobile.blackberry.com
this is bullshit
how do you figure? i am running it on my device as well.
Were we not talking about 1.7 not to long ago. I thought that was going to be the next facebook upgrade??? what's this about?
FML
Last week I finally downgraded from 5 on my storm... like 2 months of waiting for facebook... Well about time I guess. Thanks
downgraded wating for 5.0.2xx and that night its posted and facebook too now. i guess ill have to use msn as a cheap excuse not to do it again this week... EFF
Worked for me. Great find!!!
I will just wait until tomorrow and after a batt pull, maybe then it will work
Is it up for 4.6 software? I've gone to facebook.com as well as the link posted up that takes us to mobile.blackberry.com and gives us the download to 1.6.0.21 not 1.6.0.22??
i got 5.0.0.230 and it works...
now only need BBM 5.0 and its all gravy
http://60b04b22.linkbucks.com/ good luck
Kevin...or anyone else....whats the latest 8900 5.0 leak?
Works for me, thanks for the update.
Could someone post the app or offer an alternative download? I just checked after clearing my cache and it is still 1.6.0.21.
http://is.gd/3Adga OTA added courtesy of bbhybrids.net May have to try a few times, till traffic to the link slows down.
Thank you!
When i write this link,it starts to download.. than i receive a Error 907 COD. I cant download it.. And i cant find .22 anywhere as everyone said.. I looked facebook main page,appworld,mobile.blackberry.com,etc. wherever i looked its .21
HELP ME TO HAVE IT PLEASE!
Downloading OTA using the given link and receive 907 error. 8330 running 4.5 hybrid with a .169 base.
Bla1ze, is this the link for below OS 5.0? Such as 4.5.0.161? Thanks!
Thanks Bla1ze!
I upgraded to the new leaked 5.0.0.230 for Tour last night and love everything it can do but seriously missed my Facebook. I *ALMOST* considered downgrading to get Facebook back but would've hated losing threaded SMS. Luckily 24 short hours later RIM answered my prayers!
PS I had no problem getting 1.6.0.22 through the Mobile BlackBerry site provided here. Don't know why the rest of you can't! Hang tight.
to everyone saying it's fales...
GO TO FACEBOOK.COM, at the very bottom, click download and it will take you to 1.6.0.22
I HAVE A TOUR AND I TRIED THIS AND IT DOESN'T WORK DUDE.
I installed this on my Storm OS 5.0.0.140 and the icon is missing. Same problem I had with AIM - it installs fine, but its nowhere to be found after. :(
mine was hidden in "setup" folder
I've checked every possible folder with no luck.
...I needed it...ironically, I purposely have my setup folder hidden.
Are you guys running 5.0? Im running 4.7 and I am wondering if that makes a difference?
