thank you so much for posting this. i deleted facebook app and my phone wouldnt turn on past apple screen.
thanks for an easy recovery 🙂
You are a king sir. That FB app can eat my hairy white behind. Nothing but trouble. Then on deletion sabotages your phone! HOW DARE THEY!
I had the same problem too. I have a 3GS with the latest software installed.
The facebook app screwed up the phone. I deleted the FB app... then reinstalled about one hour later. My phone kept on hanging and wouldnn't open other apps, so I did the forced shut down. After turning on the phone it only shows the apple logo and my laptop / iTunes will not recognize the phone. I can't even do a restore.
What can i do?
I just downloaded the new version of the Facebook app today (10/10/2011), and when it wouldn't finish downloading I just reset my phone, and the same problem came about. I hate having to restore my phone THIS close to the iOS 5 release, but it can't stay in "logo mode" forever....I need my iPhone!! Anyway, thanks so much for the help!! 😀
well i have the same problem.. updated the facebook application when it was done updating i wanted to use but app didnt work so i deleted it. now my phone doesnt turn on, it only shows the white apple logo and thats pretty much it. i tried resetting it using the home & sleep/wake button and connecting it to my laptop!
Thanks. I had the same issue today. I was able to restore my phone. I also noticed I didn't lose the data from some of my apps. Thanks again! My Facebook app now works too.
I just had this happen as well, after the latest Facebook app update. I had to plug it in to my computer while holding the home & power buttons for ~ 30 seconds before it would restore. Thanks for the tips, now I just wish I could restore my contacts (never synced with this computer). Bummer!
thanks this realy result the problem. But now what with the FB app?, should work??
The EXACT same thing happened to me today! Tried to dl the newest FB app, it wouldnt run so I followed FB's instructions and tried uninstalling it to then reinstall it. The phone froze so I forced it to shut of (holding home and power button down) then when I went to restart it wouldnt get past the Apple screen. I must admit that I paniced a bit but thankfully I found this thread! The phone is being restored as we speak! Plus I always have my iTunes do a backup every time I plug in so my restored data will only be about a day old! THANKS!!!
