Facebook app won't log in, or when it rarely does....crashes

hi guys,

Only got my iphone 3G a few days ago but loving it....bar Facebook.

On my first iphone the web app was brilliant so when i got the new one and saw the official app for it i really thought it'd do the job even better.

Unfortunately though, after trying to log in 30 times over the last 2 days, i've only got in twice and on those occasions it's crashed after a few minutes.

It also 'pushes' the amount of PMs i have onto the home screen, something i didn't know was coming until Sept, and then when i lock my phone and check it again they've disappeared.

Not sure if anyone else is having any problems with it, as my friends arn't....but i basically want to know...

is this a phone problem or a software problem?

Thanks for your time.

PC, Windows XP

I have 2 3G iphones and 2 edge phones. They all are having the problem of the apps failing, 3 hour plus back ups and 3 hour plus re syncs after restoring the phone. The problem seems to always occur after using any app until it crashes. The phone reboot has no effect and sometimes takes an hour or more to come back up. It makes no difference if it is a free app or a 50.00 app. The apps that are web based continue to work but the ones that are installed locally are the ones that start for a few seconds and then quit. Web based apps are not affected by this. I have recovered numerous times just to have it crap out when I go to show someone my cool phone. I'm sick of this and have hundreds of dollars invested in apps for my 3G 16 GB phone. My old 16 GB Edge was bought from me by a co-worker who hacked his and installs his apps for free somehow has not had these problems. This helps confirm an authorization issue. Apple, please acknowledge this issue and fix it. The PC weenies at my company are having a hay day over this. Also when this happens the phone has audio issues after restore. You have to turn everything off then on again to get options up again.

Painfully yours,
Jeff

iPhone 3g, latest updates for OS and Facebook and I starting getting the news feed can't be loaded message last night. It worked for a while this morning and then back down again. This is very frustrating but appears to be on the Facebook end. Let's hope they figure it out...I'm sure they are getting slammed with this interface to Facebook.
