Well we all know that the Facebook application comes standard when you get the T-Mobile version phone. Well, there's a problem with the application off the bat, it does not load people's profiles or "walls". I can view my home page, pictures, friends but not their profile. I went to T-Mobile cause I couldn't find anything on the forums and he said to uninstall it and re-install it, so I did and it still doesn't work... anyone find out on how to fix it? Its kind of annoying tbh....
I never tried the application that came with the phone. Instead, I downloaded the Facebook app from the marketplace, and I have not had any problem bringing up other peoples profile. In fact, if I "click" on a name, a little window pops up that says "View Profile" that takes me straight to it.
Can you guys see videos that are posted by some of your friends on the mobile app?
My brother-in-law received his incredible yesterday (I am a Nexus One owner) and I got him set up with Google Voice when starting up the application we get to a screen that says something to the effect of "an application needs to access your google voice credentials for this account". I hit the accept radio button and hit "Next" and it always force closes. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the app, but to no avail. This was the one downloaded from the Market as the phone did not come with it pre-installed. Has anyone else had this issue? Could anyone help me figure out what the issue is?
Also, I was unable to find google earth in the Market on his phone. I was able to find it just fine from mine. What is the deal with that?

I was able to load it no problems. I also had to download it from the market. Try to factory default your device and start over.

That seems to have cleared it up. Thanks for the help.
I had that nice application called "My Account" which came as part of official T-Mobile HD2 update. It displayed minutes used, billing, forums, etc by downloading info from TMO. I used it from time to time.
About a week ago it stopped working. When I start it, it displays "The My Account application will be downloaded shortly" and only "Exit" link/button available.
No way to download it, and it has been a week already, so I doubt it will be downloaded "shortly" and "automatically I tried to reinstall it from cab - no effect. Same message.
I do not have FULL internet package, but only TZones. It works fine for me including email, maps, chat, opera, etc. And "My Account" WORKED with TZones before. And everything else internet related still works for me now. But not "My Account". I do know about #MIN# and #BAL#, but "My Account" was more convenient.
Any idea how to fix it ?
my apologies for reviving an old post, but why create a new one, when theres one on the similar topic..?
yes its about my account, since i have downloaded a cooked rom, i no longer have 'my account' on my phone and i really could use it and have had no luck finding it at all . id like to check my actual account without having to log in to tmobile's site all the time. any1 have any idea where i can find it, or if some1 could upload the .cab here for me, i would be very grateful

i have this build since 1 month now, and i love it!
but now i want to change the google-accounts (the new account is from my domain using google apps)
i googled around a little but, but didn't found a solution
is there any way to get into a "first boot"-state, so i can set my new google-account?
another question is: is there any way to merge apps between 2 google-accounts. afaik the apps from the market are bound to the account.
hopefully my english skills were good enough to describe my problem.
greetings
havox
is there anything missing in my description to solve my problem?
or is it impossible with CM7?
How about:
Settings -> Accounts & Sync -> Add Account ?

Hi,
Have you tried :Settings>accounts and sync>google>remove account?
Or apps>setup?
ok - thanks for the answers
but it's not working :/
i tried the "remove account" in account and sync, but there is a message that i have to set back the phone to factory setting. (under point "privacy")
but this doesn't work. i can push the button "delete everything" - but nothing happens ...
@malybru: what do you mean with "apps>setup". i suppose i found it, but what i have to do there? there are listed all apps, right?

Hi,
It may just be on my ROM,but I've got an app called "setup".
I suppose it's the one that runs when you first run a ROM ,and you can install your google details and wi-fi etc.
I realize this thread is nearly 1 year old, but I'd like to add something here that I know works.
I had to merge my two gmail accounts and by chance, I found that this approach worked.
Go to settings and apps for Google Play, clear the cache, force stop and uninstall updates. Go back into Google Play. You'll have to click on Accept on their T&C, then click on Menu to see accounts... select the account the app is in that you want to move to the other account. Uninstall it. Menu, Select 2nd account you want to move app to, then install.
If you don't want to lose the cached data, well, guess you're out of luck. The above was the only way I was able to move over my apps from one gmail to another gmail account.
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.
you are NOT alone.

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.

Settings>Applications>Manage Applications
Select the "All" tab, scroll through to find the app, select it, clear data and cache
You can also manage apps by opening the app drawer, and dragging the icon to the little "i" in the top right corner.

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!
Sent from my GT-P7510 using XDA Premium App
Same question......

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.
WTF
