Hi everyone,
When I try to login on htc peep with my twitter credentials, I get an error telling me that I'm entering the wrong username or password. The problem is that these credentials are correct, as I can login using them on my desktop.
Anyone have a solution to my problem?
Tried:
- Removing twitter tab and re-adding it.
- Cleared peep cache
- Soft reset
Solution:
1) Go to the twitter website, change your password.
2) Try to login using peep, it should fail.
3) Go to the twitter website, change your password back to the original.
4) Try to login using peep, it should work now.

Try this, disable Tweeter tab in Manila Settings, restart Manila, then enable again Tweeter tab and try to login. I don't know why, but it does the same thing to me randomly.

Have you tried cleaning temp files, caché, etc.. with SKTools or similar?

I cleared peep cache and my temp folder, still receiving the error
It is likely that your speling correction is active, changing the first letter of the password to CAPITAL one.
do short try:
input the password as always, then delete the first letter and re-input it.
Or, change your pass to have the first letter as capital
Have you any "strange" character on your nickname and/or password?; like an ñ; ç, etc.. Perhaps HTC Peed don't recognize that character...
I'm starting to be out of ideas.

Problem solved now.
I went to twitter.com, changed my password.
Then tried to login with peep, login failed as usual.
Went back to twitter.com, changed it back to original.
Then tried to login with peep again and now it works again.
Really weird if you ask me ...
Hello,
I got the same issue and no way to solve it. I tried your process but with no luck...
Still searching!
Check your TIME, DATE and TIMEZONE!
After a flash, this usually goes haywire. The timestamp between the Twitter server and your HTC device doesn't match up which is usually why this happens.
Try this out. This is the only thing that kept me from logging into Twitter with HTC Peep.
try logging out of your twitter account on your computer first then trying on the phone.
Hi Guys,
After a fresh flashing (including the last twitter security update) I'm not able to login into twitter and I get the same error message:
Login Error. You have entered an incorrect username or password.
I used this ROM before without problems, so I guess it is not ROM related.
Is HTC Peep starting to have problems again?
Brgds
It's not Peep or ROM related. Twitter itself messed up something and NO ONE can use twitter anymore ;/.
I'm unable to login with tweet 'till today. Wrong username or password. Nothing listed helped.
See this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=14506286 (and my message a few days ago). Still a bug in HTC peep.
I switched to Motweets today. Looks ok,
MoTweets is the way
I also had the same problem. I even contacted HTC. They asked me to send my phone to service as if they can solve it. They were not able to solve it. Finally I am using an application called MoTweets. I downloaded it from windows market place. After using it for a while I should say it is a lot better than HTC Peep. Try it
Yeah, I know MoTweets. Thats what I'm using right now anyway. But still missing Peep for its integration on homescreen (I'm kinda person "I have 4 seconds of free time, lets check twitter").

I have set up my gmail to check for email every 2 hours. I get a pop up showing my user Id and password and connect. When I click on OK, I get an error not able to connect to the server. This problem does not persist for more than few hours. For no good reason, I will have updated email after several hours.
I am unable to send any email from my HTC Tilt2 for the above reasons. Any help?
Thank you
Have you configured smtp etc in wm and configured your account at gmail?
There is a good guide if you login at gmails website..
i started a thread about this in the general forum and at ppcgeeks not getting a lot of help though
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=572157
the ppcgeeks link is on that thread. if you add to it maybe people will see that its possibly an issue and not just one phone that has a bug
did you follow these steps:

Thank you for the link. But, the problem persists. It keeps asking me to verify the Id and password till I hot cancel button. But, after few hours, I see new mail. unfortunately, I can not use the account for sending the email from my phone.

yeah i did, if you check my thread i say that it worked initially but it slowly stops working and takes longer and longer between automatic updates until it bascially stops even manually updating
Gmail not working
Mine was doing something like that where it would constantly ask me to verify the password saying it was wrong. I changed the password 4 times on my computer with no luck. I gave up and created a new gmail account and it worked the first time.
I created new gmail account as well, but no luck. it will update whenever it wants to. No manual updating possible most of the times.

This work for me. Use PHM RegEdit (or another registry editor) make a back-up of your registry. And then restore the backup file and do a softreset. I have no idea why this works but it does and I've done it twice. *I know this is late but I just saw this.
i read somewhere it had to do when trying to update using WIFI. I havent tested it or checked but i was having this problem also. so annoying!
Hello,
When I use the facebook app come with HD2, I found that the app cannot remember my email and password even though I checked "Save Login" already. I need to enter them everytime when I run the apps.
Anyone faced similar problem? Any solution?
Thanks.
Edward
Close the app by hitting the X in the top right corner and never select log out/sign out.

Thanks a lot for your reply. However, actually I used X to close the program (although I use task manager to close the application instead of minimising it) instead of log out. I also noted that in the registry there is a key called "login" under facebook. However, everytime when I run the app, the program still asks me to enter username and password.
I am getting this problem also.
It all started after the phone cocked up opening an email from the sense viewer - I had to soft reset and after that the HD2 had lost all passwords, email acounts and Wi-Fi keys etc. Every thing is fine now I have re-entered the details apart from the facebook app?
I have tried re-installing facebook but that doesn't help.
I know most people recommend using the web version, but I quite like the app and this is a real pain in the ass to input password each time I use it
Any ideas anyone?
Thanks
Same problem over here. It happened to me yesterday while installing and de-installing some custom manilla cab's ( sorry, I can't recall which). I had to reinsert all my passwords but the facebook app is the only one keeping asking for the login info.
I appreciate if somebody come with any ideas. Really I don't want to hard reset my device.
Thanks
It doesn't happen to me at all. It didn't on my previous 3 wm phones. I don't know why you get this behavior.
Me too
I allso have this problem. My phone suddenly lost "all" settings, and now Facebook won't remember my credentials.
Me too!
Wont remember my login details?!
My phone has lost all settings today twice (wi-fi key, email settings etc), and still won't remember fb at all!
Would a hard reset be the best bet for resolving this?
No idea mate, but I hope not! Dont want to loose everything!
The same problem here. Any solutions ??
Same problem here, always requires username/pass everytime. Very frustrating
Unfortunatelly it is same here too
extremely annoying!
The solution for this has already been found. Install Omarket and search for the facebook app.

Hey guys!
A friend of mine bought a HD2 today and is currently trying to setup his gmail account with the automatic settings.. bad thing is that it always asks him for the password! De checked the box to save password but it still asks for it..
any suggestions?
You have to enter the email address in full not just the start, for example
[email protected]
tried everything! he also tried my settings, username and password! on my device it works like a charm but on his.. no chance.. no idea
Try typing the password on a place where it appears in clear (like the username box) to see if some letters wouldn't be swapped because of keyboard layout weirdness or such...
We also tried it on PC via MyMobiler but didnt work! The password is 100% correct..
is it a googlemail or gmail account?
i have the same problem on CleanEX ROM 2.01.
The built-in gmail option always worked perfect for me until today. Something happened yesterday that prevented phone from booting, so had to hard reset it. Reinstalled my normal apps, and now trying to set up gmail again and it keeps asking for passwords for both accounts. The passwords I'm typing are 100% correct, absolutely no doubt as to validity or typing correctly.
Edit: got home from work, and it's working fine now. didn't even have to enter in the passwords again. Not sure what the issue is/was, perhaps gmail issue?
same issue after a hard reset still asks my password.. noticed that in account setting option it automatically creates a long password (encrypted so I 'm not able to see what is it) and if I insert mine seems it doesn't recognize it... back in account settings I find again that long password..
EDIT: to solve I deleted the email account from device, then I removed email tab from those thare visualized... soft reset... re-visualized the email tab and then re-create my account ( I mean with the old data)
maybe it's the browser? if u r using opera, go to the settings/advanced and see if "allow cookies" is disabled. Mine is enabled and I get right thru
I get this too every now and then (happened today). It always sorts itself out in the end though. Give it some time and try again.
The problem with google.... This happened to me as well about 2 weeks ago but only on one of my accounts. I could log in the web service but not through my phone or outlook. I went in the web way and changed my email setting to forward all mail to another account then after a few days all was well again.
Every boot, on a HTC Build of 2.1, it requires your password for google and complains "Sign in error for [email protected]"
Is there a known fix for this? I looked it up and found there's supposed to be a message waiting or voicemail, but I don't have any.
Thanks in advance.

I haven't ran into that issue once with my legend rom
Bik, one way I figured out around it isn't really a fix, more of a "making your own luck" way:
Wipe completely, flash the 2.1 ROM of your choice, then wipe again. Set up your device with your gmail account, then set it up in your Mail app as well. Reboot. If you get the log-in issue, shut down, wipe again, and retry. I was lucky and got it on either my first or second wipe.

Usually signing into HTC's mail app with your Gmail it should fix the issue.

I have this all the time as well, but seems like it goes away for a few hours. I haven't looked into it though. I did however create a mail account just to see, and i still have to log on almost every reboot.
Guys,
I did this and it worked for a little while. Others have had more permanent success. Different ROM, I know, but what the heck right? Not that much info on this out there....
None of the other fixes have worked for me so far including adding gmail to the htc mail app. I'd REALLY like to get to the bottom of this.
Does anyone know how to start/stop "D/SyncManager" and how to get more log info than what logcat offers?
Trying to figure this out too i get forced to sign in to gmail every reboot. going thru ddms and i noticed this, blanked out numbers - current is IMSI, stored is a phone number in my area code thats not my number? Could this be why gmail auth breaks?
03-14 04:17:42.556: WARN/AccountManagerService(132): wiping all passwords and authtokens because IMSI changed (stored=xxxxxxxxxx, current=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx)
I haven't had to sign back in to DamageControl 1.0 since a day after I got everything set up. I had to sign back in every reboot the first day, and the morning of the second day, had an email waiting, and had to sign in. After that, I haven't had to sign in, even with emails and messages waiting for me...weird

IMSI must be a holdover from the base GSM build as CDMA doesn't use it - that is. CDMA uses something else called MSID which is used for the same purpose but has slightly different value ranges. So its possible the label "IMSI" remains but the data is actually the MSID. MSID's generally look like telephone numbers, IMSI's generally do not as they might start 1010, etc.
But in either case you don't want to fool with the IMSI/MSID as it may stop your handset from reaching the right place and authenticating correctly on the network, which then might lead to loss of all services.
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.

Revoke Access · approved on 6:55 PM today · read and write access
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.

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.
