I just updated to the 5.0 version for my Blackberry 8520. First time I've ever done such a thing and it seems to be great other than the facebook/email issue.
Whenever I get updates on facebook it sends my email (just the one on the phone, not when I log in from the computer) a notice as well. I prefer that they were separate like before.
I've tried to trouble shoot by going to facebook on my blackberry and turning off all facebook email notifications however i get an error message regarding notifications and to try again later. Its been doing that all day. I went on facebook and I don't even have anything checked on my SMS for notifications. My phone isn't even registered (it says with texts to register, I don't want any more redundant notices if I can help it) with facebook.
Any suggestions?
Thank you to all those who contribute, I felt severely overwhelmed when I first got this phone and it's becoming much better!
Let me see if I got I right. You get a FB app notification and a FB EMAIL notification, but you've been looking at SMS settings to make it stop?
I'd go to the facebook site on a PC and see if I could prevent FB from sending emails. If that's not possible, set a filter (either on the email or in BIS) to make FB email skip the inbox.
I have exactly the same problem and it's infuriating. You should be able to set the behavior on the PC, but it doesn't seem to affect the BB. And I get the error message too to "try again later". What's worse is that I don't get any notifications in my regular (PC-based) email account.
