Hi there

Just installed Facebook 1.5 on my Curve 8900 and am trying to manually link some FB friends to BB contacts.  Every time I do this it sends a phone number request to the FaceBook friend when it connects them.  Does anyone know of a way I can turn this off?  I just want to connect, not request a phone number, otherwise I would have selected the "Request phone" option!

Thanks

Dom

Dom, many people have noticed that same issue... And I don't know (yet) of a way to turn it off.

Perhaps another here does, so let's stay tuned.

Was this addressed with the .32 release?

Yes, the 1.5.0.32 release of FB fixes that issue.

JSanders is right - I have tested and 1.5.0.32 does indeed fix this issue.  It now asks if you want to request the phone number or not rather than doing it automatically.
