    Anyone else getting the "There was a problem connecting to Facebook. Please check your connection and try again" warning?

    Browser, texting, email, and BeWeather all working with no connection issue.
    FB works via the phones browser though.

    Anyone else?

    Thanks,

    Updated. Just noticed it's only the News Feed and Messages that are not connecting, all other function of the FB app seem to be working. I did delete the account and readded it. But no change yet.

    Not that it helps, but, I read that the issue has to do with news feed sorting and it was suggested that if you log on to the mobile site and switch sorting to most recent it should fix it...did not work for me tho...

    Deleted the app and account. Rebooted. Reinstalled app and account.

    No affect. Newsfeed still not working.

    How many more nice little things will this phone toss at me before it goes flying through Verizons window!

    This is a BlackBerry server side problem that occurs randomly with random accounts. I believe the app was built by BlackBerry and the information from the app is pulled through the BlackBerry servers so until we get a "Facebook" made native app or BlackBerry gets the issue permanently resolved this will probably happen intermittently...

    Check out the explanation and workaround I posted in this thread http://forums.crackberry.com/blackbe...7/#post8423595 Nothing to do with connections, just a poorly written app, but you can work around it
