What port does iPhone native Facebook app use?
First, this is a really good question. Wow. I've been trying for days to figure out how to attack this one.
I set up "Charles Web Debugging Proxy" on my Mac and set up my iPhone to hit it.
First, it hits http://api.facebook.com/restserver.php, which spits this back:
<chat_connect_response xmlns="http://api.facebook.com/1.0/" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://api.facebook.com/1.0/ http://api.facebook.com/1.0/facebook.xsd">
<host>9.channel</host>
<port>80</port>
<channel>p_123456789</channel>
<seq>0</seq>
Meanwhile, it also connects to iphone.facebook.com which gives some XML. Then it connects to 0.9_channel.facebook.com:80 and sends some requests which return JSON.
It looks like everything is done over port 80. Are you sure theres no other problem on your end?
Issue is with Apple not support proxy setting in ios5 for HTTPs traffic.
