so i updated Facebook to 1.7, downloaded fine, said it was successful but when I went to look for the icon it's not there and it's not hidden or in any of my folders yet shows up on my app list. did a reboot and still nothing. what am I missing here? surely this is not the first time i've done anything like this in the years i've owned a blackberry. is this something to do with this version or my device? any help would be appreciated.

battery pull again. (incase)
then delete and reinstall FB

thanks but should have mentioned been there, done that and once again after the 2nd pull it says "Reload Softwares: 552". I spent a few hours getting everything almost back to normal a few days ago and this is the 2nd time with this FB upgrade that has caused my phone to be a brick. Also removed and reinstalled FB before which is how it got to where it is again.

update: after removing FB, the error was gone. Can't understand why it doesn't like FB.

me neither, mine works fine, and id have imagined alot more threads if FB was an issue.
Unless people just dont know about 1.7 yet.
I only stumbled across it in the aftermarket section, which i almost never look at.
