So I just set up a twitter account because theres a couple of companies I would like to follow. So I add these companies through twitter on my computer, but I cant ever get them to update or show any of their tweets on the native tweet app on the hd2? Am i missing something? I have tried doing the update now and still nothing. How do I get them to show up on the hd2 app?
Oh, and I have also tried logging out and logging back in numerous times. XDA showed up right away, but others dont? Is it just because XDA is that awesome!?!?!?
Try following them on your PC first and see if it starts showing their tweets, if not I have no idea then.
Yea. Works fine on the pc.
Just checked my settings via PC and it says I have allowed HTC Peep access to my account to read and write. I also tried unfollowing XDA. updated it, but its still all showing up.

Hi all,
I'm new here so please be gentle if I'm posting in the wrong place.
I have an HD2 that came bundled with the Facebook app. All was fine but I refreshed my friends list and now they all appear twice. I've tried uninstalling the app and then redownloading and installing etc but the problem remains.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Many thanks,
Tom.
Did you use some other software to import your facebook contacts at some point?
Hi
Nope, I'll I have done is logged in to the Facebook app and my friends appeared in there as per the full Facebook website. I hit 'refresh' on them a few days ago to see their updated status / profile pics and ever since then they've been listed twice.
Tom.
tried logging out and back in? Its also worth remembering that being logged in through the facebook program isn;t quite the same as being logged in through the 'me' contact card in your contact list.
I've tried logging out etc. It's so strange! Even the un / reinstall didn't fix it.
i take it when you log in via the pc all is fine? it isn't a facebook problem?
All fine via standard 'web based' Facebook.
In fact, it appears that the friends simply aren't getting updated. The profile pics change (sometimes) but I've added new friends via facebook on the web, and they just aren't appearing on the mobile app.
P.S. Perhaps I should be working and not playing on Facebook!!!
go too people all people, bottom tabs scroll to updates and events, (4th tab) menu update. stay on that screen (it says updating in the banner just down from top right) don't exit that screen till it has finished.
Hi
Sorry still no joy. Just to clarify, I am referring to friends listed under the Facebook app itself (middle icon on blue bar at top of facebook app).
Many thanks for your efforts so far.
Tom.
ahh well in that case I'd put it down to the vast number of issues since the made changes recently. my missus always gets a blank wall untill she has refreshed the page and flivked through all her tabs and she gets the "there has been an error" popup every few minutes.
Code:
I am trying to sync contacts but nothing shows up?? No friends or info I need help!!
Get out more and meet more people.
If you are trying to get your facebook friends to show up in your contacts, go to contacts and hit menu view and make sure that facebook is checked.
Posting this in multiple threads to see if you get an answer will just get you flamed. Just an FYI.
I am to, I emailed HTC and this was their response:
Hello Greg, Thank you for contacting HTC. I understand how important it is for you to have your phone function the way it should. Right now there is an issue going on with facebook across all mobile devices, it is not specific to you or your device, we believe it is an issue with Facebook itself and hope that it is resolved as soon as possible. I hope that answered your questions, if you have any other issues or questions please feel free to contact us. HTC Technical Support.. [websites that I couldn't post]

facebook sync is working again as of 12:30 est
I am still getting the "service currently unavailable" message. maybe it is better to just sleep on it and try tomorrow.
It syncs my pic but no others doesn't even display any contacts to chose from...
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
Have to say, I removed my Facebook account from sync and tried adding it back. I can log in, but all my friends no longer show up and sync properly. So something still must be going on with Facebook.
Hopefully an update that will give us notification when a message is sent Something so simple and yet they can't implement it. How about facebook chat while we are at it. I heard rumors that Froyo should allow for push notification like it does with IPHONE. The IPHONE app is a more polished APP. Why can't they replicate that one for Android?
I am not a big facebook fan but I have friends( Yes I pay them monthly ) that likes to chat on it.
I never could get the facebook app that came with my phone to work, I ended up trying to delete it and downloading the android app from facebook.com. Works great so far except I can't (or don't know how to) accept friend requests with it.
It's not the Facebook app that isn't working. It's the Facebook for Sense that doesn't work. I've tried the suggestions above already.

synmypix.....
If you are trying to get your facebook friends to show up in your contacts, go to contacts and hit menu view and make sure that facebook is checked.[/QUOTE]
This didnt work for me but there is an app called syncmypix in the market that works excellent.......
sycmypix
for all having issues syncing facebook contacts go to the market and download syncmypix and it does the job....
I don't think you guys seem to understand the problem. This isn't just sync'ing pics. If you wiped your Evo (or any mobile device) and try to load your friends from facebook, they won't sync.
IT'S A PROBLEM WITH FACEBOOK SERVERS!
Try it. Delete your facebook app and links, re-add them and try to sync again.
... Just installed Syncmypix and all it does is add photos. Nothing more. I don't know about others but this does not "do the job" of syncing facebook contacts. Just the pic.
Yes, this just started and you can search other web sites, many people are now reporting it. It's a problem on the server side at face book, they've changed something.

That is what I figured when I tried to view my "facebook phonebook" in my people directory.
First it said that I didn't have any friends, so I decided to do a refresh. During the refresh, I noticed that it just hanged (with the little circle spinning in the top-right corner). Then it exited out of the program saying "unable to connect"
ok i thought it was just me but hopefully they get this fixed cause i like being able to link my contacts
hello everyone
i've been using peep for a long time, and i always had problems but i could find the solution on the internet especially on xda.
but this time i couldnt.
i updated twitter lastnight everything was okay, but today when i updated, the home screen popped up saying "Launching HTC Sense..." and of course when i looked back at peep there were still last nights tweets and no new ones!
i tried everything, i restarted. i restarted sense. soft reset.
and i dont wanna hard reset!! now tell me is there anything else i can do?
i really like Peep despite of its problems, and i wanna keep using it!!!
yup i'm having the same issue - just tried it on mine to test what you said about it
as soon as i update my twitter it reboots sense.
i'm disabling twitter for now to see if it has any effect, also contacting htc support as htc peep is their app
same trouble here - when i disable twitter sense works fine.. anyone else seeing this ?
my symptoms were very different though.. sense doesnt re-load - it just freezes me out about 10 minutes after every soft reset.. once i disabled auto-retrive on peep, it worked smooth enough, but the moment i tried retrieving tweets after last night - it froze up again.. now i've tried deleting the twitter cache in my temp file - but i dont think thats helped..
any ideas ?
I've had my UK o2 HD2 since Nov last year and have had no problems with Peep until today, but now it just relaunches Sense everytime it tries to update (which I've set to every 15mins) - I presume many others are having the same problem, so hope a fix or solution is provided soon!
:-(
Same problem here, when I want to update Peep, it crashes manila.exe.
So far I know it's because Twitter made a change in their security system.
It makes a lot of users and developers confusing right now.
I hope this will be fixed soon!
I am having the same issue. I've had my phone since start of year. No issues (like this). Running latest offical O2 rom from HTC site.
Whenever I try to update twitter HTC Sense crashes and restarts. I originally was worried that it was caused by the update to fix the calaender (which I had just installed before checking my twitter at around 5pm GMT). But seeing that you are all having issues I digged a little deeper.
This is what seems to be true
The problem only appears to be when checking "All Tweets" (Which is the main screen) and not when checking "Mentions", "Direct Messages" or "Favorites". I can even update Twitter but it crashes when trying to retrieve the messages again.
So the problem is that a server (either Peeps or Twitter) is not working right. Our Peep clients can access the server but are causing a failed responce. This is causing Peep to crash and take Sense with it (As the apps are closely linked). I guess we need to sit tight and wait for either an update for HTC (If the way PEEP works is chanigng) or for the server to be fixed.
Dear Adam Turvey,
It may be just a temporary glitch, can you try a soft reset, by removing the battery while the device is on. Leave the battery out for 30 seconds then try again.

any ideas anyone HTC dont seem to know
i've copied them a link to this thread too
on a side note i'm also getting "Windows Live Hotmail is temporarily unavailable. Please try again." since this has been happening with peep
Well the issues seems to have gone away now. Just checked again and it's all working.
Guessing the above post about Twitter security update/issues may have been true and the people who run Peep needed to make changes.
Still same problem here!...
Someone discovered any solution...?
still have this issue - am trying few diff things
have just
logged out of my account on peep
disabled twitter tab in home tabs options
then delete the device/temp/twiteng folder and
rebooted phone
revoked access for htc peep from twitter connections via web
re enabled twitter in the home tabs
and logged in to twitter again
Code:
HTC Peep by HTC Corp.

Dowloading tweets......
CRASH sense.....
anyone else got any ideas ?
MoTweets & PocketTwit is working.. seems like a silent update from HTC Peep/HTC Manilla/Twitter which is wrong..
Looks like the connection to Twitter is working well.. at least, from my GF her Desire Peep is working..
Well mine is still working. What you might want to do is try the following
1) Sroll to Settings then pick Data Services.
2) Turn off twitter.
3) Go back to the Settings HTC Sense tab and click Menu at the bottom and All Settings.
4) Click the Today icon and then go to items. Turning off HTC Sense.
5) Load file explorer click "Menu" and turn on "Show All Files". If you haven't already.
6) Delete the TwittEng folder from c:\Temp.
7) Delete the Twitter folder from c:\Application Data\HTC.
8) Reboot device.
9) Turn HTC Sense back on via Start > Settings > Today etc.
10) Reconnect to Twitter using the log on via the Twitter HTC Sense tab (I did this via a wi-fi connection instead of the mobile network shouldn't make any difference but hey)
11) Then rechecked via mobile connection.
After this I've rebooted the phone and Peep is still working over Wi-Fi and GSM/HSDPA

Sadly that didn't worked, but thanks for giving us this option to try
To be honest I think what I did was just at the point an issue somewhere else was being resolved may on the server my account is on.
I'm guessing that the issue has been solved but the fix is having to work it's way through the servers/accounts. All I can say is hold on and wait it should be good by tomorrow.

I'm able to sign in, no problems, but I just cannot download my tweets.
I even can post tweets just as normal! but it crashes after posting is done.
Same issue here, Manila.exe instantly crashes when you update twitter.... Hope this gets resolved soon

Reading your post you didn't delete the Twitter folder in Application Data/HTC*
I found that when I first deleted it before clearing out the rest of the stuff when I was downloading the tweets that it would download just one of the user images again. There was also in the folder /Application Data/HTC/Twitter/TempPhoto was some sort of crap/corrupted image.
It might be worth just checking those. Like I said before I dod those steps and it works again. However is the problem is server based then it won't mean crap.
* Sorry got you mixed up with SilverRook. But again just check to make sure.
Solution for me: Log in to Twitter with Opera Mobile (twitter.com), and log out again. then Peep worked fine again.

yup just tried removing the htc/twitter folder and it still does the same.... must be a server side bug then oh well i'm sure i can do without twitter until its fixed lmfao.
Anyone else having this problem with the facebook app on their HD2?
All status updates in the news feed appear to be wall posts to the same user (see pic attached).
Also Status Updates are just blank.
I've tried full reset, removing my memory card, and literally just installing the facebook app (from marketplace) and I still get the same issue.
oh, the same on my Facebook Client...
same here, this was reported in the energy rom thread too.
seems to be an error at facebooks end and theres not much we can do....
I would recommend using touch.facebook.com in the meantime....
LOL, yeah got the same here, glad it's not just me,
Also using the energy rom here,
I've got the same... It's such a mess now
Same here.,really messes it up.,hopefully they will fix soon
seems to be working again!
I have this problem, but it hasn't started working again for me! If I log out and back in, it will gather updates once, but then it will stop working again!
Arghhhhhh!
I have the same problem with updates, my app won't update at all even if I hit refresh.
log out of facebook and log back in every time you want it to update. or use your browser.
Hi, I used to use the HTC twitter app in Sense. But from one day to another I cannot access anymore. I get the message "You entered an incorrect username or password". I tried with different twitter accounts but I get always the same error. I also tried to access with email and username.
Any idea what could be the problem?
Thx.
Little information that I bookmarked myself but not conclusive, just know we're done with Twitter apparently. Some help for you maybe is here (won't fix it but explains why you can't access like the rest of us).
Read CFB's explaination on this (Cudos to him again), concise explaination that is apparent throughout the web and Google search:

This is just a site I saved (I read here often):

Have you tried out moTweet, many have gone this way and it is ok comparitively.
Thanks for this information. I was fearing something like this.
Actually I am using motweet since Peep is not working anymore.

Not sure how deep your interest is in this but heres CFB's full write up, if you look at his last tweet at the bottom you get good news on recent developments.

Peep is working again. Log out via Settings Tab > Data Services > Log out of Twitter. Then log in the same way. Keep in mind (if you read my posts about it) that this does not resolve the security issues with the application. It still leaves your session open to hijacking, but it does work again.
If HTC does not fix the problem, it will only go out again in the future.
