when i go to x.facebook.com (or what directs to touch.) when i tap in the text box that says what's on your mind.. it turns into a grey box and i am unable to type anything.. i have restarted my phone and everything.. anyone else experience this?

Not just you - been having the same problems for a few days on my Pre. It's probably something going wrong on Facebook's side - imagine that, huh?

Can't wait for a native Fbook app.

As much as I like facebook, it sucks. They have too many problems like this, and they do stupid crap and make things too difficult for users... you'd think as big as they are they could get this crap straightened out... whatever, I'll still use the site, its too addictive.

cant update my status, there's a box and then i touch and it disappears

use lite.facebook.com -- I think facebook broke something with the x.facebook.com status update box.

flamdrag · 11/05/2009, 02:44 PM

Yep, I have the same problem. Not much use for FB when you can't update your status eh?

oh ok.. sounds like you guys are having the exact same problem i'm having.. i almost thought i was the only one.. gosh facebook. i've been using pixelpipe and yahoo social to update my status

morelloX · 11/05/2009, 06:51 PM

go to facebook.com/home.php and it will take you to the full site, someone suggested to me m.facebook.com as well

I'm seeing the same symptom. Out of curiosity...did you guys/gals run the recent pandora update? It seems like thats about when I lost the ability to
update status. Although I've been home with the flu all week so my sense of time is a bit off.
