Friendsteam force closing - Desire General

I was using my desire when it suddenly rebooted itself, now friendstream wont work.
When i hit refresh on the widget is says no recent info/posts and shows a blank feed, but when i open the app to adjust or check the settings it keeps force closing?,
I have deleted any apps i installed today incase there interfearing with it but it hasnt helped, so i went to manage applications and cleared the cache & cleared all data from friendstream aswel, but still nothing!
Is anyone else had this problem?

I have exactly the same problem. I think you saw your phone reboot because it was updating its firmware. I am on Vodafone and I just updated my firmware and that's when I started having the exact same problem with friendstream.
A vodafone admin on their forums suggested that I should factory reset my phone and restore from backup on the SD card. I did it but it didn't restore my contacts, themes or apps properly. I have a feeling that the contact information isn't compatible with the new firmware. This is probably what is causing the problems.
I suggest you back up all your phone numbers with HTC sync. ie don't rely on the SD card backup (that was my mistake) And try doing a factory reset. Your SMSs, bookmarks and Wireless access points should back up fine. Email, apps contacts won't be fine.

But did that fix the friend stream problem for you?

This happened to me.
I removed my Facebook account from the phone (settings -> accounts & sync). Then simply set it up and logged in again.

I tried removing accounts and adding them again, did not solve issue, contacted htc, they suggested a hard reset aswel
EDIT: hard rest solved issue

Reset phone now facebooks not working?

Hey.
I just had to hard reset my Desire because FriendStream messed up & kept force closing.
Now its all back & restored everythings fine except facebook.
When i try to update the news feed i get the message
"An error acoured while trying to fetch data [nul]"
Also... It no longer gives me my facebook contacts in my phone book, all i have is my google contacts, ive tried re-syncing & clearing data, uninstalling, re-installing but nothing seems to fix it.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.

[2.10.405.2 OTS] friend stream widget

since updating to 2.10.405.2 stock firmware the friend stream widget hangs showing updating on the bottom bar. some times it show new posts other time it does not , seems only to be when manually updating / refreshing.
resting the phone / force closing the widget or removing it and re adding, when it reloads it show all posts and time when updated.
I have tried stopping the services and clearing the data/cash without success.
does anyone has any suggestions?
when this happened to me it was actually a problem with facebook/twitter
if you have the actual apps you might want to check if you've entered the right usernames/passwords etc
if it was working when you first installed the system then a hard reset would fix the problem, meaning either your information is incorrect or even when you reset you re-created the problem.
thanks. i can log in to facebook and twitter no problems and go in to the friend stream app, its only a problem with the widget.
Since i've started my adventure with Desire I have problem with Friendstream widget. It updates itself when it wants and never when I want it. Sometimes it is stuck for 2 days.

random fix, i installed the Facebook app from the market place and now its working, i was using the stock app that was installed by default

Problem with Twitter App

Hello,
I'm having a problem with my Twitter app. Every time I go into it, it's attempting to log in, and I'm unable to cancel the login attempt or do anything else other than leave the app via home button.
I can force it to close, or at least, my phone tells me so, but I when I restart it, it still attempts to log in.
Even after shutdowns and restarts this issue persists.
I have recently rooted my G2, however, this problem was occurring before the root anyways.
Does anyone know a possible way to fix this?
PS. I'm new to the whole smartphone thing and rooting scene (1st phone and 1st root) so, any help is appreciated.
Thanks.
EDIT: I've chosen to just delete the app via Titanium Backup. Reinstalled 1.0.5. Problem gone. So much for restoring stock 1.0.4.
Tweetdeck is way better any way to be honest

I had the same issue. Go into settings, accounts and sync, click on the twitter account, then remove the account. Go into applications menu under settings and click on twitter then force stop. You should be able to log in again after that. Haven't had any problems since.

[Q] Apps not syncing!

My Problem:
All was working fine but after some time (maybe one thing caused it) my unit began not syncing all Apps automatically. it started with Facebook, then email, then a parcel tracking App.
I now have to manually sync the App to get the new data on my phone. Automatically he does only update SOME Apps / tasks now.
For Expample, he does update 1 of my 3 pop mail accounts automatically but the other 2 are only updated when I click on update manually (settings are 30 min on all 3).
I tried delete and enter the account, Deleting the regarding App and reinstalling (e.g. facebook), Deactivate and reactivate the autosync feature, restarting between it and so on.... Nothing works but reinstalling the phone from Scratch.
I had the normal HTC Rom on my phone earlier, now using the Revolution ROM. This issue is NOT Rom related since it came up with both roms!
What might be the reason? What can I do to fix that? Is there a Cace to clear or any Sync Data that I can try to reset?
Any Idea what might cause this and how to fix?
Well , I think it's rom related.. My apps also just get synced with RCMIX Runny.. On all the other roms i won't get a sync..
But I had the same issue before with the standard HTC rom before I even rooted it, so I doubt that.
Any Idea what service is doing the sync action for all the apps? I would like to try deleting the cache of it as well as the data and see if this helps but I can't find what service does this so I can't try this solution.
Nobody able to help? Please!

Contacts FC-ing

My Contacts application is suddenly force closing every time I want to activate it. I think it is fc-ing after the new WhatsApp update. When I checked my contacts within Whatsapp, it suddenly fc-ed. And from now on it is fc-ing all the time.
Allready removed the app, data, (dalvik) cache. I even installed a new rom (which I wanted to do anyway ). But then again, after restoring everything with TBP: Force Close.
What do you guys suggest I can do? It is now becoming quite annoying.
Run fix permissions. That fixes a lot of FC

Already done that. Didn't help either.

Didn't you install app with contacts sync lately?
what about clearing data on contacts and people and then resync to grab them back?
Last thing I remember is that I've installed the new update from Whatsapp and that is when it crashed. I already did uninstall WhatsApp, but still a FC. Already wiped all my data from contacts. Seems like everything I tried, failed.
Also delete all data from Contacts.apk.
Okay finally I found the problem. Google+ and the contacts of the app seems to cause the force colsing. Uninstalled Google+ (since I'm not really using it) and everything works fine!
