Timescape update problem

i'm having trouble with my timescape app and it's driving me nuts ~~ when i turn the phone on ~ it'll show the latest news ie facebook miscall whatever on my main screen, and it'll stay there forever. what i mean is it won't change/update to another one even though it's newer. example, someone changes their status on facebook. it'll show that on my homescreen. 1 day later it'll still show the same one, with the exact same time stamp like 5mins ago 1hr ago etc etc.. how do i get it to change? the only way i can get it to gurantee change is turn off and turn back on the phone again. it's driving me nuts

well if u have a task killer installed, then that is stopping the timescape from updating. jus add timescape as a exception to the task killer nd it'll work fine..
or just uninstall the task killer...
cheers

i'll give it a try thx

Hate to steal this thread but its appropriately titled for this inquiry as well. I just got my X10....finally, and I can't seem to get timescape to sync with my gmail?? I would assume this is possible. When I go into "set up services" only facebook and twitter are available options and when I go into "set up an email account" it says that I already have an account set up, which is my work email through hotmail that I do not want to sync with timescape. Any thoughts??

Unfortunately Gmail dose not comes for timescape, only emails setup through standard email client of X10 will display.
If you don't want mails that configured via so called standard email to display, simply in the timescape mode click settings and untick customize tiles and splines

I don't have a x10 yet, but I'm planning on buying.
This I don't really understand.
I have a gmail and a hotmailaccount, and I like to have both in Timescape.
That is not possible?
Can you explain to me what my options will be to set up both accounts on the x10?
Thx

you can get both email accounts on the phone but only ur hotmail account will show up on ur timescape which isn't really that big of a problem

Hi - You CAN have your gmail on timescape as well as any other mail accounts.. if you go into the standard mail program (NOT the Gmail one).. add you're Gmail account into there and it will start popping up in Timescape too... it'll have it's own icon too (little red envelope if I remember right).

Thx for both your answers!
Now I can get myself a x10, knowing that I'm doing the right thing!

HTC Facebook for Sense

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]
To send a reply to this message or let me know I have successfully answered your question log in to our ContactUs site using your email address and your ticket number 1xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.
Sincerely,

FIXED!

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...

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.

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

Mine are!!!!

The push notifications work for me. They work for both messages (comments and sht) and facebook chat. The facebook chat so far is better than any of those other apps ive used to use facebook chat. They finally got something right, because this facebook chat also rapes the chat on the iPhone.
I wonder if the ppl that say it doesnt work have "enable always-on mobile data" unchecked. If thats unchecked, it will not work at all on 3g. Well...it'll work when you're using the 3g, but wont work as soon as you turn your screen off.

I'm running CM6 on wifi and I haven't gotten any push notifications at all. I have notifications and such enabled and have gotten emails from facebook in the meantime, but no push notifications.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App

Facebook chat now on there YES

Push notifications seem to be working. I can finally disable email notifications. I like the inclusion of chat but I still prefer Trillian since I can do multi service (GChat + facebook for me) and it also supports the push notifications service.

I can't get it to STOP notifying me. I went into the settings and turned off notifications, but they're still showing up, grrrrr

^^^^ Having the same problem, any one have a solution for this. I had to actually log out because I kept getting chat notifications...

Anyone figured out why cleared/deleted chat conversations keep coming back?

Do the people that are receiving notifications have it synced in the "accounts sync" settings area of android or should the app be pushing notifications regardless? I still only receive notifications when I open the app.

force closing and clear data? i tried and had to sign back in.. havent had anything happen to test if push works for me yet...

Every time I go into add account for Accounts & Sync, Facebook just doesn't load. Facebook for HTC Sense does though as with everything else.

Ah, good I guess for me. I'm in the same boat.

I cant seem to get my linked Facebook profile pictures to show up in my text messaging app (the stock one). Only 1 picture for 1 of my many contacts displays, never updates though.
M using syndicate rom, Andriod 2.1. Anyone else experience this problem before?

I remember seeing a post about this a couple of months back. I don't recall whether it was resolved or not, but you should try looking around the forums for it.

Download SyncMyPix

Settings-> accounts and sync-> delete both facebook acounts. Then add facebook account back on from the same screen. Then login to your facebook app. That's how I got mine to sync a few months ago.

+1 on that
I can confirm that this worked for me also when I was using Syndicate. For whatever reason, that Rom/version had 2 FB apps/syncs.

I could have sworn I did that once before without anything happening. Maybe twice was a charm. Thanks though

[Q] Facebook Notifications????

Just today I started receiving facebook notifications on the top notification bar but I have never signed into facebook from the phone. I also checked the website and all of my notifications are turned off. I only get them when someone sends me a message and when I drag the bar down and click on it nothing happens. It is becoming really annoying so I would greatly appreciate any help.

If its popping under notifications then it would be because of a facebook app that u must of signed into at one point in time and to shut off notifications go into the face book app when the app loads push back sp yr at the screen of fifteenth options then just click the button next to the home button to bring up setting witch u can fix in there or just easily sign out

I have never signed into the Facebook app on the phone. In fact, I just did a factory reset after I had to SBF back to froyo to install the pre-rooted gingerbread. I even tried deleting the facebook app and still got the notifications. It shows up like an email notification, but with the email when you click on it it opens the email. With this notification, if you click on it, it just goes away but nothing else happens.

Then I have no clue of how to help u but if u don't have anything installed on ur phone yet u could all ways try to do another factory reset
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA Premium App

I never said I didn't have anything on my phone; I did a factory reset a week ago and since then I have installed alot of the apps/games I had prior. Facebook was one of the apps I installed, but I never signed in. Never before today have I received these notifications. I didn't think it was the facebook app since I never signed in, but I deleted it anyway and still got the notification. This would lead me to believe it is not linked to the actual facebook app itself. Within the past day, I have done anything that would lead me to believe it was behind these notifications.

Did you add a Facebook account through Blur? That is another possibility as the built in account system sends you notifications for some things, including messages.

Yes, but the reason I didn't think it was that is because the notifications just began yesterday and I have received messages prior to that with no notification. Do you know where I can get to the settings for that? When I go into "My Accounts" and click on Facebook it only gives me the option of removing account.
