timescape just crapped on me

so i was looking at timescape and my twitter updates didn't have a picture, just a blank head exactly like the ones from my contacts.
i thought there was just a small issue. so i delete my twitter account and now i can not sync with my twitter account. this is very weird. i have 2 twitter accounts but my main account (the one i had been using with timescape) does not sync anymore, timescape doesn't even let me set up the account! however, it lets me set up my other twitter account fine.
anyone else got this issue?
i get an "Authentication failed... Connection failed error screen"

This just happened to me now where none if the pictures are loading, and when I click on an article nothing happens. It's beginning to annoy me.

i'm thinking it's twitter's fault but then again why would 1 account work and not the other? doesn't make sense.

same situation as arctic since this afternoon.

can't see them yet either

well I still can't login with Twitter. every time I setup Twitter I still get the same error message.

I'm glad its not just me.
I've been trying for about 20 minutes last night. Even reset my password and tried again. Get into Seesmic OK so I've left it a while...
Still no luck yet though

I can't see twitter pics either.
We can exclude the phone bugs now ... pretty much the problem is on twitter side.

so it still available issue. I even formatted thy phone and even repaired it with update service. timescape will not allow me to login. I just hope Twitter didn't change anything and screwed up timescape.

Multiple Accounts on vibrant

I have to emails one is my school g mail the other my personal gmail. I used to have the school one forward messages to the other but that turned into a hassle. I was just wondering if there's anyway to easily switch from one email to the other. Like if there was a widget or something.
Thanks!

I guess you can use the gmail client for one account and configure the email client to get mails from other gmail account. I use both gmail(thru gmail client) and yahoo mail using the email client. Also I see options in email client to configure more than one account, but haven't tried it. I do not want a combined inbox for more than one account as it will be kinda messy. But you can explore that option too.

Settings - accounts and sync -- add account -- Google account

I know how to do this that isn't the problem. My problem is when I get an email I don't automatically which email I'm getting it too. I have to choose the account. I just wish there was a way to separate it right off the bat. Instead of having to go through settings-accounts-email 1/email 2.
Maybe its just wish full thinking.

Yeah, sorry but there's no way to do that. I think there was on 2.2 when I had a Nexus One but I can't remember. Or you could try Gmail Pop Up on the market.

I people disappoint me...
Google app for main account.
Exchange ActiveSync for the second google account.
Google "Google Sync"
Vibrant can manage multiple exchange accounts, so it will work even if you have another exchange account set up.
HTH!

Search the market for gmail unread count. Its a widget you can add to your desktop that looks like an icon for gmail and will show the number of emails you have unread for any and ever gmail account set up on your phone. Its very stable and quite customizeable. I have a diff color icon for each of my 3 accounts and it makes keeping track of unread mails and accessing the specific account I want very very easy.

Im not sure if this is what you want. But I also have two gmail accounts, and one quick way for me to go into the right Inbox, is I created a shortcut for each Inbox, using the Gmail Label shortcut, when you create the shortcut, it will ask you which account you would like to use. Then you can rename the shortcut for each inbox to whatever you want, then from the Home screen just click on whatever Inbox. I hope that helps.

Anyone have problems setting up a second Google Account? I've been trying for a few days and keep getting a "Can't establish a reliable data connection to the server" error. I've tried both on WiFi and 3G, in different locations( home, at work, out and about), and still can get my second account linked. I did some digging the settings and found the multiple sign in options, turned all that on, and am able to sign in to both account on the web, but still not on my phone.
Any thoughts?
Thanks!

Same issue. I was able to do this at one point but after JI6 bricking my phone and getting it back with ODIN I have never been able to add multiple accounts. Hopefully someone here has an answer.

Does anyone know how to set up a school account on gmail (my university uses the gmail interface but has its own log in portal). I cant seem to log in through gmail.com (on the phone and desktop browser)

Froyo. XXJPO and Social Hub issue

1st i do apologize if this is in the wrong section and I have looked around the site and found 5 more posts on this subject but no answer but i will go ahead anyway!!
I was on Froyo 2.1 on my Galaxy S i cant say anymore than that because once i was home i updated via Kies i believe it is to Froyo 2.2 XXJPO base version I9000XXJPP, All i did was update via kies and i changed nothing else!!
in 2.1 and social hub it showed my facebook, messages and both my hotmail accounts, since updating it only shows facebook and messages, i can not for the life of me get it to show my hotmail accounts anymore, this as been for well over 24hrs now
I also have a gmail account that is my main account and my push account, should that be in social hub because it is not??
my hotmail accounts are set to never download, well manual download!! which i have done!
but it would be nice to get all of my things in social hub again!!
does anyone have any ideas to what i could do other than maybe going back to froyo 2.1 because it did work on that build!!
kind regards and have a great day!!

Hey Chris, I can't help you bud, but wanted to let you know you're not alone. I have exactly the same issue. It used to be a really useful app, but now I don't use it at all.
Not much of an 'upgrade' is it? I've seen other post in various places that they have the same problem, maybe it's a google thing, trying to push people into using gmail??

Did you try adding your Hotmail accounts via Contacts ->Activities ->Menu->Add account->Corporate account (for any thing other than Gmail).
I have them working fine on my SGS 2.2

Your accounts will appear in Social hub when you have added them using the 'Samsung Email' app. You should have three email apps, Gmail, Email and Samsung Email, only accounts added and used through the Samsung email app will appear in Social Hub.

I really appreciate the post mate, at least I know im not alone
Just bugs the hell out me that it worked, I upgraded and now nothing!
I read someone say it just started working for them a few hours after it stopped so I hope that could happen to me but still no luck as yet.
As for adding accounts via contacts, I tried that, it just takes me to accounts & sync I think it is and I added my hotmail via corporate and selected push and had all working fine but still nothing in social hub, sorry I could not quote the post above this, but sure how to quote multiple posts on this app.
should my gmail account show up social hub?

I have no idea what the samsung email app is, I was lead to believe that to get them in social hub we have to add email in the email app, little white envelope with the green @ sign which I did in 2.1 and all worked but in 2.2 I did exactly the save but but working, I have never added via samsung email and I had it working on froyo 2.1
I don't have a samsung app
Of course I can live without it, just it really bugs me that it worked but now won't and now only shows message and facebook even though I have gmail and 2 other hotmail accounts set up on my SGS
Thanks for all your replies guys.

[Q] RSS feeds not working....HELP!

I've reset my phone twice now. I've installed the new ROM from Adrynalyne 3.30.11.
I was hoping to get the feeds to work after the install.
Here's what's going on:
-I subscribe to Preloaded RSS feeds or User added RSS feeds without incident.
-Shows as "successfully subscribed"
-Result: NO FEEDS COME IN
-I unsubscribe and sometimes I get an error, "Server problem, Try agian" but not all the time.
-I'll try again to unsubscribe and it works.
So I start all over and I select to subscribe, "successfully subscribed" but I get no feeds.
WHAT'S GOING ON??? AM I MISSING SOMETHING?
I do receive notifications of email, twitter, facebook, incoming/missed calls, and text messages. I just don't see any RSS feeds working even though I've subscribed to them.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Make sure that you sync stays on as long as you want your rss feeds

Sync stays on? Not sure what sync you're talking about.
I'm running "Open Advanced Task Killer". What process do I need to look for to see if I've killed RSS feeds?
I've turned off my Open Advanced Task Killer and I've subscribed to a Preloaded feed as well as a User feed (XDA-developers and Android Central).
Still nothing.
I've got a process called, " RssProvider" running but it maybe from using GoodNews. But until today, I didn't have GoodNews installed.
Thoughts?

Check your Settings>Accounts & Sync>Background data is checked.
Check Settings>Ticker settings>RSS feeds and ensure you have them loaded and check that in Ticker settings all of the other options are turned on in each desired category.
Last, check that your Ticker Sleep Time in Ticker settings isnt set for when you dont want it to be.
Hope that helps!

I believe that this is also handled by the SNS apk that Samsung provided, and on the Fascinate, the SNS services are less than reliable.

Funny story:
Just went into verizon the other day to complain about this. I've reset my phone to stock about 10 times in 3 months to keep my ticker working. When I went in, of course, it was working. Check my phone today just out of curiosity... totally gone again. FML.

I don't know why so many people are having problems with their ticker not working. Mine always has

My ticker displays out of date Facebook notifications when I get a new notification.

Yes I'm grave digging but I stumbled upon this thread after recently suffering from a similar issue.
I have confirmed that Z7.apk, SnsProvider.apk, RssProvider.apk and DrmUA.apk are all needed to receive Preloaded RSS feeds. Browser.apk is also needed to read these RSS feeds. Otherwise, when you click on "Read the full story...", RssProvider will force close.

Setting up facebook sync returns "Incorrect email address"

Hey,
as I realized last week that my facebook events and birthdays are not in sync, i checked the account sync's status, apparently it had failed to sync and still did. Then I deleted my sync account and tried to set it up again. But this failed too:
After entering my login data for a new integrated facebook account, it just reports "Incorrect email address". I am 100% sure this data I used is the same as in a browser.
Using the facebook account delivered with the official facebook app works, but can only sync contacts, not the calendar. Can anyone at least confirm it is no general bug to the samsung delivered account style?
Thanks!

I did, even though this should not change anything (and it didn't).
My issue is with the Samsung distributed version of the facebook sync (which used to work even without a facebook app installed)

I'm having a similar problem with Facebook calendar:
Recently I changed my email address in Facebook, after that I removed my Facebook account on the SGS that contained the old email and created a new one with the new email address. Contacts are syncing fine but in Calender no events from Facebook appear.
Going into Calender settings I can see that it is trying to sync to my old Facebook email.
Is there any way I can get calendar to sync to my new email address?

Hi guys,
I had the same problem when I updated my rom.
You probably need to clear the cache of the phone by using the 3 button combo option of the phone.

Of course I will. Since I have a custom rom (Darky Rom 10.2) I confirmed with a buddies identical phone that it is basically working, so no ( at least totally) rom related issue.
I just hope to avoid my last resort, that is reflashing.
EDIT: Solved it. Never trust those lists of system app's purpose. Apparently one of those 3 is important to register this kind of sync account, not to run it: Dlna, GoogleFeedback, Layar, MtpApplication.
As I cleaned them after setting up the rest of my phone (to make sure everything is still working, with obviously backfired), I never realized that problem, so for people that mess around with their phones, don't forget to check those messy areas (and don't forget them like I did)
Thanks for the help!
