New Facebook App V 2.5.1
Here’s the latest version of the Facebook app. The version number is 2.5.1. According to Facebook, the new features in this release are:
- Support for more languages including Thai, Arabic, Vietnamese, Devanagari and Hebrew.
- Photo tags are now displayed
- Added ability to “Like” comments and photos
- Photo uploading supported on more phones including the Samsung Seek
I’m not sure which Boost phones it works on. On my Rambler and i776 it installs and runs but most of the keys don’t work and as a result there’s no way to get past the login screen. The previous 2.3 version didn’t work on my phones either but BoostApps readers reported that it worked on the Incognito, Juno, Factor, Rant and Seek, so I’m hoping this one works on at least those phones.

HOPE this one is somthing else…….lol
This App is still VERY limited on the Incognito! The photos I tested for viewing for instance I used my friend Pamela Mager… Her profile pic does not fill the screen in Opera Mini 6.5 or with this App… Now the UC Browser blows that up to full screen!
You can upload/download pics with the UC Browser… To upload merely click the photo uption and it will bring up your menu of where you wish to upload from: Phone or Memory Card! You can upload and download with UC Browser!!!! Its VERY POSSIBLE… Ive done it plenty of tiimes…:)
This App also does not show the complete profile of someone or even their bio! It lacks alot and speed!!! I will keep it but its a no frills basic Facebook App… Nothing to significant here…
You get much more even if you use Opera Mini for browsing Facebook….But if you want the BEST App for viewing Facebook is the UC Browser 8.0… It has speed an elegance with an Opera Mini style to it.. 🙂
Thats my report on this App…:)
Erm , you have to have your own photos and upload them .
You may need a phone with a memory card to be able to upload photos .
I could never get past the loading screen on my Innuendo . I tried adjusting the settings a bit , but after waiting five minutes I gave up . 🙁
how do i download photos i cant even find a place where it says download photo or browse photos
You can’t download photos (save a copy of a Facebook photo on you phone) with this app. You can do that with Opera Mini on any of the Boost phones with a memory card
If you mean upload (send a photo from the phone to Facebook) I think that only works on the Seek with this app.
