Facebook and Verizon

I have 100% 3G signal, can surf the web fine, good connection, but Facebook 3 won't stay logged in. It'll connect for a few minutes, and then randomly disconnect, and can't seem to re-connect. Just now, I got a push alert from a news app I have installed, but can't connect to FB (yes, login/password are correct).

I'm just wondering if anyone else on Verizon is having issues with Facebook specifically. I'll contact Verizon too, but just curious if FB is maybe buggy on the iPhone4.

No connections issues on my laptop to FB.

MacBook Pro 2.2 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo 4 GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM, Mac OS X (10.6.6), Final Cut Studio 3, Aperture 3, Verizon iPhone4

Yes I have my verizon iphone and i was having the same problem with facebook. It hasnt logged me out in awhile, but im not getting my push notifaction and my number indicator does not show when I have a new message,comment,etc.. When I first installed the Facebook 3.3.3 it kept logging me out and I couldnt log back in. I had to reinstall the app several times before it stop kicking me off, but again its still not working properly because im not getting my messages until I actually go into the facebook app, then everything will show. And I have searched the net and there are alot of people having this same issue.Facebook needs to step it up and make a stable app.

Hi All,

I recently upgraded through ATT to my 1st I Phone and ran into the same issue. The facebook app is really buggy from what ive seen so far, However i was able to get mine working. I deleated and redownloaded the app a total of 4 times and the forth time it will leave me logged in and has remained logged in for about 5 days so far! I am just not always recieving my push alearts. Sometimes i will sometimes i wont. At least the app stays logged in now!!

Same problem here. Sometimes logs in, most of the time logs in and then logs right out. I think this app needs the location service to run properly cause I know in order to post a picture you have to enable the location service. When the app does load it never asks to use location which is probably the problem. It doesn't even show up under location services in settings. Has anyone received a response from apple or facebook?

I am having the same problem....got my iphone through verizon...it is extremely annoying. Facebook keeps logging me off and then won't let me log back in. If it does let me back in it takes a very long time and only lasts about a minute b4 logging me back out. I have uninstalled and reinstalled about 10 times now and nothing changes...I sure hope they can fix this problem

I have the AT&T iPhone and Facebook does show up under location services in settings for me. However I have Facebook set to off there and I am still able to upload pictures and use the app normally without any problems staying logged in.
