Sociallite app windows 8 not logging in - Windows 8 General

okkkkk im sure most of everyones having this problem but i need socialite on my windows 8 and its not logging in at all and i belive its an issue with the certificate it sends to facebook does anyone have any idea on a patch ?

Try Refreshing
If you don't currently have any important documents or settings on your current installation, I would probably "refresh" the system. My Weather and News apps were not loading at all, but after refresh they successfully loaded and I was able to run and actively use them.
If you don't already know how to refresh, just simply go to Control Panel and refresh. If that didn't work for you, then boot into your installation media and do it from there.

What you mean with refresh? I'm having issues with weather and socialite.
In the 1st install I had trouble with the graphic card when I reboot so I reinstall OS again and It worked, but those apps still without
Thanks

For Socialite you will need to go into your Facebook Security Settings and Disable Login Approvals. It should register and work then.

Same Problem With Me...
I Guess It Will Be Fixed In The Consumer Preview.......
Atleast Hope So...

Bit fiddly but I now have Socialite working on Iconia Tablet.

Cannot connect to Chrome-to-Phone no matter what/FCes on certain YouTube app videos

Hey guys,
No matter what, I get the "Unable to Connect" error when trying to connect to my Gmail on Chrome-to-Phone. I've uninstalled, reinstalled etc but nothing. Other Google apps seem to work fine I think.
I'm already connected to this account in this app on my Droid X, so I know it should work. Same goes for my Nook Color previously, worked fine. Why wouldn't it work on this?
Also, in the YouTube tablet app, some videos I try to watch, the second it hits the video screen and the little loading circle starts spinning, the app freezes and then force closes. More than 50% of the videos seem to work, but some (namely certain ones I click from the widget that are featured, which is weird) freeze up right away and FC on me. Any answers to this one yet?
Thanks.
I definitely get the youtube force closes. No idea whats causing it.
Well I bet that one's pretty common.
But does anyone know how to make Chrome to Phone work? This is killing me!
I have the same chrome to phone problem on my Tab and Thunderbolt. Its really annoying because I use it all of the time.
np with Chrome2Phone here - it's just a little slow sometimes.
Try: Force Stop, Clear Cache for the app & restart.
You seeing any message in your logs? (adb logcat)

Nope, tried clearing/uninstalling...nothing works, just get unable to connect.
EDIT: I did a logcat on my PC while trying to connect to Chrome to Phone, and the section that contains tons of mentions of Chrome to Phone is freakin over 14,000 characters long, much too long to paste in here. How do I know what to look for in there??? (A hell of a lot of activity happens instantly).
Google has some arbitrary limit of number of devices that you can connect to your chrome to phone account. If you use a different Google account, you should be fine. If you unregister one of your devices, you should be fine.
The problem comes from us crack-flashers that forget to unregister before flashing a new ROM. If you have a nandroid backup of a ROM where you are still registered, restore it and unregister, then restore back to whatever you were using before. I've even gotten it to work on my tablet by unregistering on my phone and then restoring a backup to regain the registration on my phone.
I've also heard that the old registrations expire after a while. I can't verify that, though.

You'll see something that looks like a stack-trace.
It has to be fast - your phone does a lot without you knowing about it
Your best bet is to: adb logcat > capture.txt
Run through the app.
Open & explore.
You'll find a group of lines that look something like:
Code:
D/ContactsSyncAdapter( 517): at com.google.wireless.gdata2.client.GDataServiceClient.convertHttpExceptionForWrites(GDataServiceClient.java:466)
The specific content will vary depending on what apps is crashing.
Feel free to IM me the log and I'll help point out the error.

Ok so the too many devices thing is it. I think 2 is the limit. I am linked through my Droid X and was linked to my Nook Color. The problem is that I factory restored (reflashed stock Nook firmware) the Nook to sell it and no longer have access to Chrome to Phone on that device (I assumed it would disconnect the link for me?). It has stock firmware, so no Android apps or anything. Yet the only way I can get it to connect on my Tab is to disconnect on my Droid X app. I don't want to disconnect on there obviously.
How can I disconnect what it thinks is still a link to my Nook Color without actually even having it on the device?? I want to have it link to my DX and my Tab- this will work but I don't see any outside way to unlink it from my Nook? Grr
Basically now, my Tab is connected fine but now the same issue is with my DX, so I still need to figure this out.
Also, in my opinions, this limit of two is not great because what if you really have a legit third device and want to link? There is no quick way to switch between devices if there is a third, and nobody really wants to have two Google accounts just for this. Kinda stupid IMO.
I have had this issue for awhile on my Samsung Captivate and now my Galaxy tab. If there is a limit, I need to figure out how to remove the old ones. Does any one know how to remove devices? I do not currently have it connected on any devices so I should be able to have it running no problem but I get the same message as the OP when I try.

Um OK, so I bit the bullet, took the Nook out, reflashed CM7, logged into Google, downloaded Chrome to Phone...all so I can do what I thought would work and log in to Chrome to Phone and then disconnect again so that the device would now longer be linked. I did that, and now I cannot connect on any of my three devices.
Are you serious?? How are people supposed to deal with this? There is no device management for the account/app anywhere. Can someone please help me make this work? I don't know what to do at this point..
I even tried connecting CTP on the Nook to my other Google account to see if it would really unlink my original account, but I still can't login with the original account on any device!! Oh my freakin God

[GUIDE] Nexus 5 apps safe to remove

Hi there!
I've put together a spreadsheet of apps that are (or so far seem) safe to remove from the Nexus 5. Note that I am running 4.4 KitKat, which has been unlocked with TWRP and rooted. The spreadsheet comes from the combined efforts of hallstevenson's spreadsheet on the Galaxy S3 for Spring (which I adapted and updated for the Verizon version), and referencing MoJo's script for removing Nexus 5 bloatware. I used Titanium Backup to go through and type in the packages and APK names.
CLICK HERE FOR ACCESS TO THE SPREADSHEET [GOOGLE DOCS]
Click the "5.1" tab.
If you have questions, comments, suggestions, concerns, or want to tell me exactly where I'm wrong about something, please leave a comment here! If such a list already exists, I couldn't find it through searching. And if I'm in the wrong category, I apologize; seeing MoJo's script here led me to think this would be the appropriate place.
**UPDATE FOR LOLLIPOP 5.1**
Here are the apps I've personally removed, if anyone is interested (this list changes with each update):
Basic Daydreams
Cloud Print

Earth
Email
Exchange Services

Updated for Lollipop!
I'm back with an update! You can use the same link above. Note that this time I've added a tab for Android 5.0 Lollipop. (There's also a tab for what I believe is 4.4.4, which I started and didn't finish... Sorry!) Again, I'm on a stock ROM from Google's firmware page, and I used Titanium Backup (v 6.2.0) to go through this list. I had a couple of app updates after flashing the new ROM, so the version numbers might not quite match up. As usual, let me know if there are any issues, or if you've figured out if an app can be removed that I've left blank. If you're going to be adventurous, it's best to freeze an app and test rather than delete it, and make a backup before you delete.
Enjoy!

Not sure. I'd think the Photos app would still work, but maybe not. I actually use Google+ on a constant basis so I haven't removed the app.
You deactivated the exchange services, so do you get any emails with auto synchronisation ? Or are the exchange services only for the E-Mail app, which isnt working on L anymore?

Bump for 5.0.1 update (see original post)
Hey, I am a tad bit confused here..
I currently have two Exchange Services.
1) com.google.android.gm.exchange
(ver. 6.5-1520254)
2) com.android.exchange
(ver. 4.4.4-6936)
I'm sure the second one is the one I can delete but was just unsure about the first one.

The first one is the one I have marked as safe to delete. I don't know what the second is, maybe something left over from KitKat? Try freezing them with TitaniumBackup and reboot, see if they give you any issues. If they don't, make backups and remove them.

Okay, I didn't think this would have much to do with it but I am using Slimkat 4.4.4, so I didn't think to look in the 5.0 tab. I shall see what happens when I freeze the other EServices.
Thanks for the reply.
Edit: Well, I have backed-up both Exchange Services and removed them both and nothing seems to have changed *Shrugs* Ahh well.

Well, generally speaking, you should be looking in the tab for your current Android version. (Or as close as your custom ROM gets.) The list is based on a fresh install of the ROM, so if your apps have updated since, they'll show different version numbers and possibly different locations, too. Something I didn't think to include in my post, sorry!

Well I flashed the ROM last week, so anything could have updated. Anyway, thanks for the help. I just wanted to have an opinion on the random system app first before I went ahead and removed it.

Please help: Chrome stopped working

Hi guys... stupid me... I was playing around with Titaniuum Backup and read about the recommended job to integrate update into the ROM in order to free up space. Good idea, i thought.
So, I pressed it and was toasted successfully. Tried to start chrome again and was told that an error occurred and I have to delete chrome first. Well. I wondered as it is a system app. Never mind. Titanium backup pro solves the problem I thought. Deleted Chrome, restarted and installed it.
If now I want to start Chrome, it closes itself and gives a toast that "Chrome stopped working". I can press report or ok. The most interesting part is, that this toast appears 2 times. So, I guess that the process starts 2 times and produces a conflict.
Any idea?

Try clearing data and defaults of Chrome in "system settings - apps" and then long pressing Chrome and turning it to a system app in TB.

Hello, "undo sys integration" lets me know that there is nothing to undo. So, I can not execute this process.

But you put "Deleted Chrome, restarted and installed it." in your first post. So now it must be a user app?

1. Make sure chrome is closed.
2. Go to the app settings and remove all data from chrome.
3. Go into /data/data/ (with a root explorer) and remove any directory with chrome (probably: com.android.chrome),
4. Then remove chrome from your device.
5. Restart the device after that reinstall chrome from the play store.

System dump?

Hi so been on 7.0 for at least a month and just last two days phone was being really buggy so I turned the phone off and back on phone didn't prompt for password to boot.
Is there a way I can save the whole phone on to drive to send to someone to take a closer look to see what virus is on here Im guessing it's a rootkit some how also what way would you run packet capture to see things that way?

a virus would be software related...if you did a full wipe and installed fresh software and it continues it might be an app you keep installing...do you get your apps from the playstore or side load as well

playstore only before my phone was locked boot loader and encrypted to have to use pin to boot device.
AS SOON as i get the buggy phone and reboot when it boots up it no longer request pin to boot. on stock rom i was rebooting phone every week to see how long it would take and usually nothing odd until phone got buggy for reason of the reboot.
the buggy issue is shortly opening an app the app will freeze so i hit home nothing happends try to turn the screen off nothing happends until a minute later sometimes phone will reboot its self or i hold power to make it reboot but both take about same amount of time when phone goes into full freeze.
so it being a playstore app and the virus not getting detected google needs to look into how they can patch this...
so im putting this out there so this person or group doesnt forever have a backdoor into peoples phones.
this issue i have had since november last year but havent been so aware about the issue till august. since august ive been dealing with know some how they are getting in and must be an app but i got rid of all games and weird apps that are not nessisary

these are all the apps ive had since ive had this issue.
i was hopping that esfiles exploreres new feature of being notified of new files would help solve this but some folders it doesnt detect like youtube or google music even though in es files explorer i unlocked ability to view the .nomedia
Drop ES File Explorer, to start. Read this article, or do some googling about it on your own;
https://www.androidpit.com/this-is-why-you-should-not-use-es-file-explorer
I have to agree with the article when it says Solid Explorer is a great replacement. I've used it for years now and it's never let me down.
The fact of the matter is, if you manually wiped all of your phone and formatted your internal storage, nothing remains from pre-wipe. If your issue is coming back it can only be a hardware issue (if applicable) or some app you are using, as previously mentioned.
Furthermore, after googling your exact issue I came to find that certain apps that require 'Accessibility Services' can and will disable your pin/password/pattern on boot. Check if any of your apps fit the bill in 'Settings > Accessibility > Services'
Disable any apps which are enabled and reboot. You may have to set up pin, etc., again, but leave the services disabled and see if the issue returns. Let us know!
Edit: Upon more googling, I've found reports of people who had the issue return after disabling & uninstalling the apps in question as well. You may need to flash stock images again and do not install any apps that require accessibility services, or don't grant any of them permission even once.
Edit2: Just another link to check out;
https://blog.g3rt.nl/android-lollipop-encryption-user-interface-flaw.html
Edit3: Issue tracker link; https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=219498
Edit4: If you logged into your bank app and factory reset or flashed factory images, logging in again after the wipe/flash will show as a new device. Same goes for having login alerts set for Google / Facebook, etc. Your same phone shows as a new device after the flash or wipe. Guaranteed not a virus.

Thank you! I tried googling but guess I wasn't doing it properly.
I turned off keeper nothing.
I un installed it nothing.
I dont know how to re enable boot encryption pin.
the phone says it is so I'll try clean install again and just not allow keeper anymore I think the issue has come up just after turning keeper on to allow the accessibility features.
Thank you I will keep you informed give it till February if nothing odd happened.

Thank you! I tried googling but guess I wasn't doing it properly.
I turned off keeper nothing.
I un installed it nothing.
I dont know how to re enable boot encryption pin.
the phone says it is so I'll try clean install again and just not allow keeper anymore I think the issue has come up just after turning keeper on to allow the accessibility features.
Thank you I will keep you informed give it till February if nothing odd happened.

Also thanks I know about the added devices I cleaned the one to my bank account and I look at my other accounts every once in awial and make sure nothing odd wish my bank account showed what devices instead of only having clean on Facebook I've had things look suspicious ips from another states but the device listed was same as mine so don't know if they are able to spoof that.
I always assumed that some how the cell tower was saying it is relayd to Cali or something.
I live in Fairbanks Alaska.

Well turns out it was keeper I switched to last pass uninstalled keeper before uninstall It was telling me 8 hrs of battery life. Now 21 more hrs with already being on for 5 hrs at 78%.
Phone hasn't had any weird issues. Except I had lost the encryption anyways and only after having the new image for one week now been going for three weeks.

just got another update B575

This morning after I woke up I got a warning an update was available. I was on B573 before. Updated but have no idea what the changelog is. If anybody can help, please see attached screeenshot.
Mate 8 AL10
Had you had Google Play store authentication issues for apps you had never installed prior but wanted to try on 573? This seems to be an issue many of us are having with 7.0 on Mate 8 so far.....curious if its fixed by 575 somehow....even though doubting its a priority on Chinese AL10.

No issues before none now.
OK...yeah...I have a feeling a full reset without restoring apps and data would fix the issue...but I didn't want to have go through the whole google the phone and reinstall everything routine. I did have to reset to get to nougat....but just restored apps and data with hisuite.
Looks like it's some optimization changes. I haven't received it yet on my B573, hopefully soon. Battery life seems quite bad right now. Looking through the forums with google translate, people seem to like it so far. One person mentioned wifi was a lot better, which is great as it got really choppy from 562 to 573.
Google translate of the changelog:
[optimization]
to optimize system performance and stability, make your phone run more smoothly, stable and optimized power consumption of mobile phone performance, extended battery life
optimization parameters holster screen brightness so that the brightness of the display screen more comfort
[repair]
repair Taobao application text input dialog occlusion problems
fix problems call recording can not add the specified contact
repaired HuaweiShare open WLAN download rate reduction problem
fixes some scenes outgoing calls can not be a problem

I'll save you the trouble and tell you to not factory reset.
I already wiped my phone clean using factory reset and that did not fix it.

Mine works most of the time, but I find that when you try to download something that prompts you to download wifi it gives the error. Can you try installing an app like Dawn of Titans or Drift Legends? Those are two that gave me the error whereas I could install many other apps no problem. You don't have download the whole thing. If the download starts then it's working for you. It usually gives the error right after you click Install in the play store.

You could try Aptiode apk and download those games to see if it works.

Definitely smoother! Battery has been amazing but I guess it's hard to tell after only one day ,

EMUI never played well with Google services anyway.
My Android Wear would disconnect all the time.
What I have noticed with this whole Google playstore authentication issue is, wait a couple of hours, attempt to redownload the app and it'll download.
It's not a big deal. I wish my Google contacts' photos would sync and all, but meh.
What I am hoping for is the stable version will resolve all these Google issues.

Same for me....must not be that.
Have found if I install an app on the desktop play store website..it immediately acts like it has sent it to phone....and eventually after much time it either finally downloads and installs or allows you to do it from the playstore app. But if its an app you have never tried prior you basically HAVE to goto the desktop play store and send to phone to get it to eventually work. Once its been used once you can uninstall and reinstall like normal from playstore app later without the authentication issues. If its an app you have used prior...just not recent or even ever on the Mate 8 they will work like normal....this is only issue with app you have never touched EVER from the playstore.
me too I got a warning new update( B575) was available. I was on B573 before
i will download it and try i hope it solve my big issue regarding the google authentication
( which can not be solved neither by factory reset nor by delete account and clear cash or clear data or even uninstall and re install google play store or any google apps !)
my device is huawei mate 8 Chinese version NXT-AL100

Weird, I've never has such problems.
I got the update for B575 and tried to download a few apps and it didn't seem to have the auth problem..Not sure what changed. Can anyone give me an example of an app they couldn't install? I want to test it more..
The Google issue only happens when I want to install an app I've never installed before.
Using Android device locator, Google is unable to locate my device. My find 7 and Nexus 7 is fine.
Definitely a emui nougat issue.
