Nope - just sent a tweet, received a tweet and received a reply to my tweet - v. strange!

I managed to fix this (it was occuring for me as described) by going to Manage Applications under Settings > Applications, and clearing Peep and Twitter Widget data

Or use a decent client like Twidroid

Works for me too - both sending and receiving tweets on Modaco 2.2

Dave

Just tried your suggestion but it didn't help. Everything comes up OK if you log out and log back in, but trying to update (automatically or manually) causes either com.htc.provider or peep itself to crash.

Peep is still working for me too.

Semi official statement from HTC

Same here.
Peep is just working fine.

Having issues with Peep. Installed I Tweet (now free) and this is incredible.

i would suggest SWIFT its very fast and has great usability. I like it much more then Twidroid or i tweet.
But this is a matter of taste.
Anybody who is searching for a peep replacement until it works again should check out:
- twidroid
- i tweet
- swift
- twitterride
and more and choosne what suits him the best.
i chose swift because the list is scrolling REALLY fluid and the updates are very fast. Also like the UI colors (whereas the bright blue on twidroid is not good for my eyes). Functionality wise i think most good twitter apps are up to par, so the UI will make the difference.

Why is Twitter slow on update?

Hi!
Is it just me or why is my Twitter not upated as soon as a new twitt is written.
I have made a small test and when i write something on my PC's twitter it takes a while before i can see it on my HD2. How come?

Get the TouchTwit app. It's like $2, and I've found it to be way more useful and prompt than the included Peep program. Not perfect, but better.

I've the same problem, in the settings I've set the update to every 15 minutes, but I have always update it manually. When I wake up in the morning I always see that the last update was around midnight and that update was done by myself.

Then we have a new problem/bug for them to fix....
My guess is that we're never going to see any fix for our problems now when there's new models out on the market that needs fixing as well But i read a thread about the U.S model have had a new ROM that fixed every problem the old one had... I'm glad for them and are hoping that the rest of the world can expect the same treatment.

Not any fix atm?

have no idea, think its something wrong with the program.... hope they update it someday

Facebook doesn't work

Hey guys, I've recently updated to the leaked Froyo update and occured some problems. My phone worked fine the first couple days, but now for the last two my facebook app doesn't work. Ive tried whiping, reinstalling the update, clearing cache for the app, and re logging back into it. The error message I keep getting is:
"An error has occuried while fetching data. [null]"
I've never seen this kind of error before, and can't figure out how to fix it. Any ideas or suggestions? I had CM5.0.6 on before this if that info helps. If you need anything else from lemme know, caz I'm out of ideas

Same problem here. Noticed it today. Even at home with wifi connected, I get that same message on Facebook. Anyone have an idea why. Facebood worked for a couple of days after updating to froyo, then now nothng

i have stock nexus one. started happening to me yesterday

It's not your ROM or phone people having same problem on the hero

btw - tested facebook app on my xperia x10a. gets the SAME error. facebook app problem, probably.

It's definitely a problem with Facebook itself. Most likely due to the changes in privacy settings (again).

ya, wifes cliq has the same issue all day

Yea doesn't work on mine either as of later night...same. " null" error. Strangely, I loaded 'Blue' and it works fine

Its a Facebook issue

Wife says her iPhone won't even work, so Facebook screwed something in the API.. Probably making changes so random people have even more access to your information.

Not androids fault. Blame it on facebook. Its on their end.

lol couldnt have been said better ..i started having this too. it just started today..i can get notifications to load correctly and comment and what not,but when i go to neww posts people have put or try to write something on my wall then i get that notification..

Facebook just changed the users privacy settings once again, so that's why.
It's working again today.
Hopefully, with the Android Facebook SDK released yesterday, it won't be too long before we get a really good facebook app like the one on the iPhone (as opposed to the crap we have now).

Ever seen the Windows Mobile Facebook? The current Android one is awesome compared to it.. Never looked at it on the iPhone.
And gee, I was right.. They were adding more "Privacy" settings. Funny how they use the word "Privacy".

Not sure if any of you saw this or not but I trust in Eric Tseng. He's been at Facebook about two weeks and he's already getting stuff done. http://developers.facebook.com/blog/post/385
Btw the error fetching data happens to me too. It happens all the time and they have to end up updating again. Have faith in Tseng!! He just needs more time.

I had that error too, it went away early this morning...
also, I cannot wait to see what the next facebook app has in store with the SDK being released...does this mean our facebook client will equal or even surpase the iPhone one?

even on a stock rom, i still have issues with fb

Facebook app seems to work just fine here (N1 running Froyo). I've tested using both both 3G and WiFi.

It's working now, the app was broken for a while. Pretty much all of yesterday.

Facebook app update

Just downloaded update and seems lot closer now to look like the iPhone one. I don't use Facebook app much so anybody notice any major differences since last one?

yep.. it auto updated this morning for me.. and its much nicer feel to it.. also like the little photo slider at the bottom.

wish they would implement facebook chat though

Much better, only thing I miss is to see who liked smth, option to slide to next picture when viewing pictures(it is so stupid to me to touch next and previous button) and chat

FB chat through the AIM client seems to work fine for me. But yes, it would be nice if we didn't have to run another app alongside the proper FB one.

Has anyone tried syncing contacts through Facebook rather than Facebook for HTC Sense? Since this update I have two Facebook accounts in the Accounts and Sync settings. If I try to use the new one it doesn't seem to work. It offers a new contact link but doesn't have pictures or anything attached to it.
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App

while we wait for them to put chat on the app in the mean time download go chat the ui is good it looks like google talk

I can't believe items in the notification menu still take you to the mobile version of the site in your browser and don't stay within the app.
Apart from that, I like it.

Partial Wake usage withe the new 1.3 client
Check the "Partial Wake Usage" (*#*#4636#*#*): with Facebook client 1.3, no contact sync and autoupdate on "never" i have 100% usage (on facebook app)

A definite improvement... wish they'd change the horrible icon though.

Yep, I've just uninstalled the update.
Would this be because of the 'new notification implementation'? I did, for the first time ever, actually receive a notification whilst I had it installed!

It's using way to much of the cpu, too bad since I really liked the update but I need to uninstall it aswell Battery is more important!

Do people think a fix will come out for this? Surely this is an error, it uses way too much battery!

It has to be some sort of unforeseen thing. I would hope to see an update to fix this soon.
Mind you, I'm not overly impressed with the new features- was expected something far bigger and better.

I just wished, they can have a widget like the one on iphone where it displays the notifications on a corner.

Thank god I now know why my phone as gone from 100% to 0% in the space of 6 hrs.
Thought it was the Froyo update but can see now it looks like it's this new update.
Has anybody emailed them yet to inform them of the excessive battery increase?

Yes I have already mailed the developer
Sent from my HTC Desire

I installed it when I first saw that the 1.3 was released and I haven't noticed any difference what so ever on my battery usage. I don't use any taskkiller so I haven't killed it of.

is there any fix for the battery-usage-of-death issue ?

Facebook>?

Has anyone been able to find a way to make Facebook update properly on the HD2 these days?
I cannot see any of my recent wall posts, photos etc.
Thanks.

I've also been having this same problem. I had to log out and re-log back in to refresh the updates. I don't know why it's been doing this.

log out log in again every time you want it to update or you can use the client build into the browser. Been fudged up for a few weeks now

Logging in and out does not seem to work for me oddly enough.
Seems like such a simple program.
I know they are working on new security, interfaces, certificates and the like, but...really...this is as rudimentary a facebook experience as one can get and I find it very strange that it has not been addressed with an update in the marketplace.
Glad to see that some others here have had their troubles start with this around the same time I did.
No, not happy for your woes...just nice to know I am not alone!

Install the version NOT from the Marketplace or the one that came preinstalled on the HD2. Its the same version according to about, but for some reason, this version for me has been working fine for around a week where as the others won't update and haven
t updated for me for almost a month.

I appreciate the heads-up, but where is this version "not from the marketplace" to be found?

You can get it directly from Facebook, or from Windowsmobile.com.

can you post the facebook cab you are using?

Yeah why not? Get it while its hot!

this is an older version of the app.. the current version is 1.1.0.17

Well that is the latest version that I could find. Its the same as the one here..but the functionality is basically the same despite the version number.
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/en-us/downloads/facebook.mspx

the version off of the market place is 1.1.0.17 the one on the phone was older than that by a long shot as it was 1.0.0.0.7 or something like that

Which is very true, but they both offer the same features and functionality so the version differenece seems prettty trivial to me.

while the features are similar the PQ is loads better on the new app....no more low res crap pix.......

does installing this version fix the refreshing issue or no??

Nothing seems to fix it. The ONLY way I can get on Facebook on my HD2 now, is to use XDA-Facebook...which is a better application anyway in my opinion. I think the problem is with Facebook itself, not the app but I cannot confirm this.

From what I've read it's a Microsoft issue. FB changed some **** and Microsoft has yet to develop an update to make their facebook app work with facebook. I guess FB let Android, Iphone, etc know the changes were coming and Microsoft just doesn't care about our Winmo 6.5 software enough to work on it. There are some threads on the internet about this where people are wigging the hell out over it. Saying they will never buy another winmo phone because of it. It's kinda funny.
The FB app on my phone hasn't worked for over a month. Do I care? Not that much. The FB app on my iphone 2G works just fine.

Ditto. The Facebook app has never worked for me. As soon as I enter my user information the app will update my news feed, photos, and status ONCE. Ever since, I have found that the mobile version of FB is excellent for what I need. I it doubt that the app will ever be updated.
