I thought the mobile icon is for those not logged in at all and only reachable via SMS.

You probably have FB Messenger installed, in which case a green dot will be displayed next to your name as the chat functionality in the app has been removed. Only when you messaged via the FB app did a mobile icon appear.

If you press the face with the lines next to it on the top right hand side of the app it brings up your friends using chat?

Tap the gear icon and "turn chat off" appears; try that and turn it back on again? See what happens?
