Once I installed the new Facebook (3.0) I immedietely restarted the phone then began to use it. It looks fine and all but when poking around it would crash a lot. I cannot even open my Profile (Crashes everytime) and when I open some other friends profiles,pics and what not.

Any Ideas? I tried running it in Safe Mode and get the same exact problem!

EDIT: After literally hours of tweaking and what not I finally found what was it that was causing it to crash so much.

1- qTweeter causes it to crash alot! Delete it until they update it to fix the compatability issues

2-It appears that if someone left comments or anything on your wall that have Emoji icons (Thank you jackryan57 for finding this) it will cause your Facebook to crash once you try to view your profile. Once I deleted all the Emoji's on my wall (Through the computer), they appear like little boxes with numbers, my profile was opening perfectly on my iPhone :)

Thank you everyone for posting!!!

Why is it only me then? I have reinstalled it, restarted, safe mode, everything and still crashing! OMG. Well, I just sent Saurik a email, maybe he will understand me :p
 
I have an iPhone 3G that's jailbroken and I am facebook 3.0 is crashing everytime I try to start it. I have made it as far as the login screen and then after that it starts to load and crashes. I have deleted, rebooted, and reinstalled and it's still crashing.

My wife has a 3G not jailbroken and facebook 3.0 is working fine for her.
 
Jailbroken 3G, and I managed to look one by one all screens, but now that you mentioned, the first time I opened it it kicked me out, Ithought that I Logged out and exit by mistake, but now that you all are mentioning maybe it was just a crash.

But again, it's not a rule that Jailbroken iPhones can't get new Facebook to work because I used it for at least 10 minutes.

Yes, still crashing. I have yet to make it into the app. Maybe it is one of the JB apps I'm running.

Okay, it just started working and I didn't do anything different. I spent about 20 minutes in the app with no crashes...strange. Hopefully it will continue to work.
 
Jailbroken 3Gs phone, same issue here, crashing

So I uninstalled it directly from the iphone and re-downloaded the app. I was asked to input user name and password, but once it tries to log in it crashes. I think it's a server problem

I agree about the server problem since the app just started working for me for no apparent reason at all.
