This is the official Facebook Java app. Facebook claims it’s incompatible with all Boost feature phones and won’t let you download it. However, BoostApps Forum member WyldeChilde tried it on his Incognito and reports that it:
” Works great. Connects quickly. Keys are mapped correctly.
The Bad: Upgrading to new version impossible thru Facebook as they blackball my phone. QWERTY symbols are wrong. You have to press SYM and use the Symbol list.
Overall, great replacement for launching the web browser all the time.”
According to Facebook, the app lets you update your Status, view your News Feed, Inbox, and Photos, upload photos and find friends from your phone’s contacts. Not all features work on all phones
I’m not sure what, if any, other phones it works on. It doesn’t work on my Rambler or i776, it runs but none of the keys work. If you try it on any other phones leave a comment letting us all know if it works. Update: reported to work on the Mirro, Seek and Rant. Photo uploading reported to work on Seek and Incognito

thanks dennis (for facebook softwares)
Why does it always load new seisons?? It get so annoying everytime when i tried to go to my neww feeds…..and soo on.. Im using .y sanyo…
This is an old version of the Facebook app. Have you tried the newer ones?
2.8.1: http://boostapps.com/apps/social-networks/facebook-2-8-1/
2.7.1: http://boostapps.com/apps/facebook-2-7-1/
2.5.1: http://boostapps.com/apps/facebook251/
All versions of the Facebook app are pretty buggy. You might find it less frustrating to use the Facebook mobile web site in Opera Mini or the UC Browser.
What do you mean by loading new sessions? Does it make you log on every page? Or something else.
I have an innuendo and i am trying to download this app but o dont know hoow to do it i already red the instructions but my phone doesnt wanna response in the downloads.. If anybody can help me i will thanks..
You’re clicking the JAD link in the phone’s browser, right? What happens after that, error message? What’s it say?
does not work with sanyo innuendo just flases starting new session config starting new session over and over is there a way for this junk phone to send pics directly to face book if not im switching carriers and telling my friends to do the same. why keep up with a service with stoneage phones the phone came out last year and facebook has been around for awhile _get with the program boost or you are going to loose customers
Uploading photos to Facebook using Opera Mini reportedly works with the Innuendo. Instructions here: Updated: How To Upload Photos To Facebook From (Some) Boost Phones
I use blackberry 8100, used fackbook but I don’t connect in the first times. Help me!
This is a generic Java app for non-smartphones I’m not surprised it doesn’t work on a BlackBerry.
You need to use the Facebook BlackBerry app from App World http://appworld.blackberry.com/webstore/content/680/
