I keep getting this error message when i hit system updates in the about phone section.
"com.android.settings.deviceinfo.CheckUpdate is not available without a social networking account. To create a new account, click "Setup" button"
If I try to load social networking from the applications list, it says i have to setup a social networking account also. But when I go to accounts, it wont let me delete the facebook account (says error) and there is no 'social networking' account in add accounts. This is a really strange error, I'm thinking maybe due to downloading the regular facebook app. I deleted it and still am getting the same error. Not sure if accidently deleted the social networking app but its still listed under the manage applications section.
Anyone have any ideas on this one?
I am having this same problem. When I go into "About Phone" and check for updates, I get a popup message on the screen instantly that says:
com.android.settings.deviceinfo.CheckUpdate is not available without a social networking account. To create a new account, click "Setup" button"
There is a button labeled "setup" and a button labeled "Cancel". When I hit "Setup", nothing happens.
If I go into Accounts on the phone, it shows two sections:
MOTOBLUR Accounts
Other Accounts
MOTOBLUR accounts has nothing under its header, and Other Accounts has my GMail account. When I hit "Add Account", there isn't an option to setup a MotoBlur account, or add my existing MotoBlur account to the phone. Instead it gives me the option of adding MySpace, Facebook, LastFM, Twitter, Email, Corportate Sync, Picasa, Photobucket, LinkedIN, or Yahoo Mail to my MotoBlur Account.
I figured I'd try adding one of those to my MotoBlur account in hopes that it would realize that it lost my MotoBlur account and let me add my MotoBlur account back in. Sadly, this was note the case. I chose Picasa, put in my name and password and got the following error:
"There was an error creating your account. Please try again.
There was an error creating your account. Please try again."
(Yes, it said it twice)
I tried the same thing with Twitter, and again I got the same error message box (and again it said the error twice).
For some background on my setup... I am rooted and have unlocked the boot loader. I also used Titantium to Freeze everything in the "Comprehensive List" on this website:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=972459
I did unfreeze everything I had frozen on the phone, rebooted it, and I get the exact same results...
Accounts lists a header for MOTOBLUR Accounts and Other Accounts, but has nothing under MotoBlur.
When I try to do updates and it says that I need a social networking account and I click "Setup", nothing happens.
When I launch the Social Networking App, it says that I need an account, and my options are "setup" and cancel. When I hit "Setup" 3 in 4 times the app just closes on the spot, 1 in 4 times the phone rebooted just after the app closed itself.
So can anyone shed some light onto this? It seems obvious to me that the problem is that my phone "lost" its MotoBlur account. Is there a way to set one up again without wiping the phone?

I have previously borked Motoblur by freezing something I shouldn't have, and thawing didn't help matters. I'm guessing you'll be doing a wipe and clean install in your near future.
This may not be relevant since I'm running the 2.3.4 build, but I have an app called Social Networking in my app drawer. When I click on it I can add a MotoBlur type account for a variety of social networks. I don't remember if this was there in the stock build. I think I remember a social widget of some sort though. Maybe you could add that to a screen, and it would provide the actual mechanisms for adding the social networking account.
Im getting this too in my rooted atrix, the unrotted i have us fine.
Sent from my MB860
Rooted versus non-rooted shouldn't matter. I was rooted on 4.1.26 and did the OTA to 4.1.57, re-rooted and did OTA to 4.1.83.
There must be a way to have the MotoBlur setup to come up again without wiping the whole phone. There doesn't seem to be an icon for it, but there must be something I can run through a terminal window or over ADB that will re-launch the MotoBlur setup.
DK
I put up a post on the Moto Forums, and a Moto Employee said that there is no way to re-run the MotoBlur account setup.
The thing is... I'm nearly positive that there is a way. I'd find it very hard to believe that the application to setup your MotoBlur account when you turn on the phone for the first time is programmed such that it removes itself after its done. That would mean that its still on the phone somewhere. Right?
I'm hardly an Anroid pro, but I am most definately not a typical end user either. Any advice to point me in the right direction would be appreciated. Since I don't "need" OTA updates until GB is out (unless CM7 or anything good custom ROM beats Moto), I have plenty of time to look around the phone for a solution to this.
DK
if you wipe your phone you will get this option back to add a motoblur account again
there is a 'setup' app in the app drawer for those who want to setup blur later.
If you are on bell search flawless bell update I have a howto.
If you're on att you're going to need to find a stock system.img to push onto your phone.

Ever since I've rooted and have flashed new custom Roms onto my Hero. A couple things have happened. The phone works fine, runs great expect for "My facebook" account not syncing with my phone. It did when i had the stock rom on it. I've tried different roms, but I'll I get is these two errors when I try and sync my contacts. My picture shows up at the top of my phone book, but no one elses gets linked.
Then I read in some forums to try other facebook accounts. So I tried my friends and her sync right up and started to download contacts pictures.....what is the deal?
How can the phone possible know the difference between facebook accounts.
any help?
The only problem I ever had was with facebook not syncing up correctly and it only happened once. I just went into the phone settings and deleted the account and readded it.
You might want to also try going into facebook from a webpage and clicking on Account -> Application Settings
Select Authorized from the drop down and then delete anything that says Facebook for Android or HTC Sense.
You may have multiple listings or the permissions might have gotten messed up. Deleting them will force the permissions to be re-established.

can you clarify in more detail on these steps? i went to facebook on the web and couldn't find those settings. i wish to complete this with successful results! mind being a bit more detailed? thx in advance
On the right hand side on facebook you will see ACCOUNT
Click on Account and select APPLICATION SETTINGS
Then on the application settings page there will be a drop down box with the title Show: select AUTHORIZED
Then you will have a page with your authorized applications. They are organized by category so you might have to click on the category to expand that section.
In the APPLICATIONS ON FACEBOOK category there will be FACEBOOK FOR ANDROID.
You might have several listings for Facebook for Android. On the far right of the row it is on there is an X.
Click on the x and click REMOVE on the popup.
Do this for every listing of Facebook For Android
Next go to the category DESKTOP APPLICATION.
You will see an entry or entries for HTC SENSE
On the far right of the row HTC Sense is on will be an X
Click on the X and select REMOVE on the popup.
Do this for every listing of HTC Sense
Then go into your phone and re-setup the accounts.
I had this error. My problem was that I had too many friends and caused it to crash while loading. I had 3,000+. I think it started to act up around 2,000
Also, if you have trouble with anything listed so far try this.
Run Logcat and sync manually in Accounts and Sync.
Watch logcat for com.htc.bg died.
If you are using a rom with the internal task killing mod (autokiller and dconfig also) set the task killer back to stock and then sync.
I've noticed this in the past that the taskkiller when set above normal will kill com.htc.bg while you're syncing. AFAIK, there is no way to change the process' "importance" or make the taskkiller ignore this prosses, but this is a verified work-around.

i think this was my problem as well. on other forums others were saying they had 300 friends only and their contacts synced up nicely. me on the other hand have 2000+ friends and about five min in that's when that damn com.htc.bg comes up and i have to force close it.
well I went into my facebook account settings, found what you where talking about. There was multiplies of the htc sense and other. So i removed my account from my phone, deleted the applications on my facebook. Logged out of facebook, removed it from my phone. Re tried....no luck.
So I went back to my facebook account. Deleted the htc sense. wiped my phone, flashed a fresh rom. skipped the set up. Synced my contacts. and then tried to sync with htc sense. No luck. plugged in my friends facebook account, synced right up within seconds....
whats the deal?

I've come to the conclusion it has to be something to deal with my facebook account. The only thing "facebook sync sense" syncs with is my (name, birthday and profile pic) nothing else. But if remove my account and replace it with my friends it sync perfectly fine. Any ideas?
oh yeah it synced perfectly fine with my account back when I had the phone stock with android 1.5
found the problem. If your facebook account has a symbol in it, like mine is Irish and has a " ' " take it out save facebook. Then uninstall from phone, re sync to phone. Works. how stupid.
VERY ANNOYING
I Have to FORCE close on on those 2 constantly. there has to be a reason for it
SOMEONE SOLVE THIS...
my fb has no symbols, i can open then close fb without them starting. its totally random when they come on
It's very strange, from what I gather is that the errors appear when facebook sync is unable to sync because of it not being correctly connected with your account.
Since I've deleted the ' in my last name on my facebook account and re-added facebook sense to my phone, it synced up and downloaded all 370 contacts to my phone within a couple minutes. I've also had zero errors, etc...

The problem I'm having is the com.htc.bg process stays open when sycning calendar. This causes obex service to constantly run and keeps the phone from sleeping. I have yet to find a fix for this besides killing the obex process manually.
In trying to freeze some of the bloatware, I accidently froze the motoblur accounts app, thinking it would only eliminate the blur account, not the whole accounts function.
After realizing I had no accounts, I thawed the app. I added my accounts back in, but since then the "social networking" app won't work. When I load the app, it says I need to setup an account. However, pushing setup closes the app. My contact's photos aren't syncing with facebook like they were.
I could live without all of that, but any advice on how to fix would be great! What I'm concerned about the most is getting the 1.83 update. I haven't received yet the OTA update. When I click on System Updates in About Phone, that Social Networking Account Required meesage pops up again. Again, can't do setup. Worried that this an future updates aren't going to push through correctly! Thanks for any help/advice!
Besides being rooted, phone is pretty well stock.

That sounds exactly how my "accounts" was acting when I first got the phone and flashed Adeo. I had to flash SBF to get my social accounts working properly again.
I have searched through the sections but couldn't find exactly what I was looking for so hopefully someone can help me out.
When I check for updates under Settings>About tablet and try to sign in with my samsung account (created on samsung's website) it says invalid ID or password. I know it is correct however since I have verified it three times. On the off chance it was linked to samfirmware.com I setup an account there too, but same thing. Am I missing something?
Thanks in advance.

Right after I noticed on these forums that one need to be signed into a Samsung account in order to get an ota update, I tried to sign in with my existing Samsung account - could not, wrong password.
I tried to create another Samsung account online, and I get errors ' a problem occurred'.
I even tried to use a non existing gmail account, same problem.
Then I spend about two hours on the phone (its not a cell phone, you will probably end up at laptops - but Samsung support is so ****edup, that one knows whats going on. One guy told me to create a brand new gmail account and use that userid to login. Another said I should create a new samsung.com account and use that....no luck.
When I was promised to be called back 24-48hours after open the issue and no call after 72 hours, I called them. Their response was that someone will call me when they have a solution.
Probably think I am stupid and cannot type.
**** SAMSUNG support.
Maybe I would suggest we all open issues with them, regarding this **** support. That is all we can do - maybe a lawsuit because they are selling something that is not working as advertized....
Numbers count! Please open an issue with Samsung.
Your not missing a thing, I received my wifi Gtab 10.1 couple days ago did the same thing and nothing, first it said processing failed then it said wrong password, did the same, logged in on line to the samsung website that was fine. I Called Samy tech support up and they said they are working on linking the accounts together "I take that to mean its a system wide problem" the rep said i can sign up with a diff email. Well i did that too a got the same results. Im guessing they are having some issues with that update sign in/sign up server.
Ill call again tomorrow and see why i cant sign up at all.
samsung support known for a horrible service but i love their products. as long as you are sticking here at the forum you are good. mine too and i dont want to spend more time logging-in. just go to development section and you are good to go!
It's a known issue, but try again. It took a few times for it to go through, but I am now synced. Of course, there aren't any updates available, so it isn't a pressing issue right now

did you eventually use your login info from the Samsung.com site?
Maybe I am missing something really obvious ... but my Samsung Account shows as not sync'ed but I cant find where I can try reentering my username & password for it. When I go into the "Samsung Account" heading in "Accounts & Sync" there are no menu options at all. Am I looking in the wrong place?
EDIT:
Hmmm ... rebooted and now there is a message saying that "Samsung account" has to force close. Lovely.
i didn't use the same login as the website, I used the same login as my Gmail for the Tab, but I think you can use whatever email/password you want.
To access the login screen, go to Settings/About Tablet/System Updates
For whatever reason, trying to get the acct set up on the tab doesn't seem to work for anybody the first time. So, remember the first email and password you used, and do this:
clear data and cache, and force close these 2 apps:
Samsung account
Samsung apps
launch Samsung apps, and agree to the terms
try to sign in to your samsung account with the first email and pass that you used
It worked for me.

Clear data and cache? Do you mean from CWR or somewhere else?
Sorry, from manage apps, clear the data and cache from those 2 apps.
ETA: this only lets you create the account so you can manually check for updates, it does not solve the sync issue.

OK, that sort of helped. Went through all of that but when I sign in it says bad password(verified through last pass login I am entering it correctly), and when I try to create account from that page it says account already exists. Frustrating!

When my attempt failed for loggin in from 'settings', 'about', 'software update', these two app's (samsung apps & Samsung account) data and cache are still empty - there is nothing to clear.
I cannot see that it will work either with the CWM data/cache clear, as I did the new UI ROM install, cleared my data and cache in CWM before I did the ROM install and afterwards I still got the same errors trying to login to the Samsung account.
I think you were just one of the lucky one's to sign into samsung account.
Did you use your same account-name & password as your samsung.com info?
Have you EVER logged into the samsung.com account (maybe registered your device online), before trying to connect from the tab10.1 to samsung account?
I think these are all important questions that we need valid answers for, before we can determine the say to proceed with this account login.
Thanks

Sorry - saw your post. But as I said these two app's data and cache were empty for me, so that does not do it either.
I haven't registered my device on the website.
If you get the "username/password already exists" error, I believe you are registered, there is just a bug with the server. Wait a few hours, another day maybe, and try it again
If you're still having problems, please look at this thread, hopefully there's some useful info that can help you clear it up

Solution found......
See this :
It works for me - confirmed.
Solved
If you're getting the "processing failed" message when logging in to do the updates, then here's your solution:
Instead of typing in your login information for the "Update" action, go back to "Accounts & sync" menu, then "Add Account", select "Samsung account", and fill in your samsung login information there.
If you have any trouble with your login (such as it rejecting your correct password), go to samsungdive.com and create or update your login information there. Simply changing your password to something different appears to somtimes help.
Once your login information is entered into the "Accounts & sync" area, you should be able to access the update feature without providing any further credentials.
samsung accounts too quirky
i have an account i have been using then updated to ICS.
galaxy s2. then tells me I cant log in with my .com domain in Turkey.
blah blah blah.
using the phone and samsung instructions it says log in under another address.
okay but there is no way of changing the log in on the phone which steadfastly keeps the old gmail address as my log in.
solution I uninstalled samsung apps and samsung account and sent an email to samsung explaining why.
told them when they get their s*** together then i might reinstall.
otherwise no advertising dollars for you samsung and google.
best to give consumers what they want.. a fully functioning OS and proggie.
I can do without samsung app but they cant do without us.
might take a year. suddenly kies for ubuntu.
email addresses that work in all countries.

I've been trying to figure out how to sync my Facebook with my phone, but I think I'm running into a glitch. I go to Settings, Accounts & sync, Add Account. I then click on the facebook button, but then it just shoots me back to the previous page (Accounts & sync). The very first time I did this, it asked me to log into my account, but then it didn't add my FB account and just brought me back to the previous screen. I've looked online for a solution, tried things like uninstalling the facebook app and reinstalling it, but it just does the same thing. Any thoughts?

You didn't look particularly hard did you? Check down on the Themes/Apps section for this phone. There is a leftover bit from the SE code that was stripped that ends up blocking the addition of a FB account from the official FB app. You have to use another app. Try using the SonyEricsson Life.Contacts beta, or use WATTO's FB Synch adapter (I use the latter, but there isn't an option to synch only matching contacts, just all or nothing).

For those not stuck on the borked CDMA version, yes, this. Also make sure you have not moved the FaceBook application to the SD card, as that will also commonly mess up the account synch adapters.
Same goes for me. I logged out, cleared app cache, cleared app data, reinstalled, tried to add FB sync account, logged in successfully, facebook opened but no sync account was added.
The only way i figured it out is to use the r800x UK firmware because it uses the sony ericsson base instead of google, so facebook contacts arent blocked.
My two cents, hope it helps

Hey there! Sorry if this is redundant, as I've seen different threads complaining about this kind of issue; however, have not been able to find resolution, so I thought I'd start a new thread to see if someone can point me in the right direction.
Symptoms:
RSS: Newsfeed widgets won't update. I removed the RSS feed subscription and attempted re-add it. The phone was able to detect that there was an RSS feed on the website (tried multiple), but when I hit "SUBSCRIBE", I get, "Error Try again later."
Facebook: The market facebook app works properly. But trying to get facebook to sync (it was previously synced just fine) is unsuccessful. When I try to add a social network via the Social Networking app or if I go to CONTACTS > SETTINGS > ACCOUNTS > Add account, there are two instances of Facebook listed. Before, one of them (the smaller of the two icons) would have the e-mail address box shaded out, but the password box allowed me to enter a password but with no account e-mail address to marry it to. I was able to successfully remove the account via this thread: Can't remove facebook account from my accounts? using SQ Lite editor (this cured it the last time I had a problem), but now when I try to log in with the "other" Facebook icon (this one seems to be linked to the Social Networking app, the other seems to be linked to the Facebook market app), I get, "Adding Facebook account" for about a half second and then, "Error Your request was denied, please try again." Facebook contacts will not sync with phone contacts (though I have sync checked). (I'll get to "what I've tried" after the symptoms)
Can't update the phone:
I go to System Updates under "About Phone" and get (almost immediately), "Check for update is not available at this time. Try again later."
What I've tried:
I've removed the Facebook market app and used the SQ Lite editor to remove the string as instructed. This changed the small Facebook icon within the Social networking accounts to allow me to enter an e-mail address; however, I get the error mentioned above. It doesn't seem to act like it's a bad email/password...it's like there's no connection attempted. Plus, I can log into the Facebook app. I also tried re-removing/logging out of the larger icon Facebook app within Social Networking and then re-trying to log into the other. Failed. Same messages.
Naturally, I did the battery pull, reboot, cache clean, etc.
I am rooted and use Droid Wall and App Quarantine. I also have Root Browser. I attempted to un-quarantine and restore all blocked apps. I had not blocked anything new between the last update of my widgets and the problem starting. I removed all widgets as well to try to give the phone a clean attempt at restoring this. Had had previously been getting offered the new update for the DROID X but did not download it so as not to lose root.
I also attempted to clear data on the social apps. Some would not allow me the ability to clear the data. I also cleared facebook data before uninstalling the app.
I'm trying to find a solution that doesn't require system restore.
Anyone else seeing this or have an understanding what function shares all of these issues?
you can can not update if any stock apps are frozen or edited
you can not update if phone is not activated on verizon
you can try SBFing without data wipe, may or not work
or you can try my stock nandroid, advanced restore>system only
