    Same thing happened to me. I had to reinstall the OS. And all my apps. And all my contacts. Funny thing is, when I installed Facebook again the available version was 1.7. I installed it and it works fine. So maybe the upgrade trick is to first uninstall earlier version of FB before installing 1.7.

    Like the first poster, it was too fast to read before my Tour would re-re-reboot again. There is a thread in this forum called Facebook Crash that has a link as to how to unbrick and it worked for me though I had to reinstall eveyrthing.

    This happened to me as well. It wasn't even recognized by the Desk Manager at first, so in order to reinstall the OS I needed to have the Application Loader screen open waiting for me to connect the BB, then quickly plug the device into my computer and his the next button on the application loading screen. This was able to bypass the boot sequence and make the phone usable (at least secure it's connection to the Desk Manager) while I put on a new OS.

    I was able to uninstall fb app reboot and then install again. I would recommend this over the install over top of method. Thanks for the idea.
