HowTo use Facebook.app 3.2.1 with BiteSMS

Many people are having problems with the latest update of the Facebook App for their iPhone.

I didn’t get down to the “why this works” as of now, however, here’s the fix:

1. Go to Cydia and uninstall the package iphonedelivery. This package comes with biteSMS and allows you to receive a report (in form of a green check mark) whenever a SMS text message you sent away is really being sent.

2. Go to SBsettings -> More -> Mobile Substrate Addons and disable biteSMSsb.

Reboot(!) the iPhone. Everything should work again. Have fun.

UPDATE:

I just found out that I’m not the first person to figure this out.
Well… just take this as my part of a double-blind-test.

In the beginning of 2009 I started to use Eventbox. A nifty little tool, that promised to allow me access to my social life (lives).
I could use Twitter and Google Reader with it. Later Facebook and others were added.
Towards the end of 2009, Eventbox was bought(?) by RealMacSoftware and hence is named Socialite.
The guys at RealMacSoftware managed to improve the app greatly: it started eating up less and less memory and to use less and less CPU cycles. The best thing in my not so humble opinion was the integration of Twitter Lists.
As far as I know, Socialite, as of today, is the only Twitter client for Macs that implemented Twitter Lists in an intelligent and really usable way. I for one, cannot think of any better way to make use of this Twitter feature.
However, from that point on the whole project went south.
