I upgraded my Desire by installing the LeeDroid ROM to get FroYo. Now however, facebook Sync does not show up on my People. When I try to enable Facebook as a sync account, "Facebook" does not get selected, and "Facebook for HTC Sync" gives me a connection error. Is there a way to fix this?
IF I want to go back to my original state, how do I go about doing that?
Try to uninstall and then reinstall Facebook app for Android on market, it may help you.

Same thing happens to me, I think it is a fault with the Stock ROM.
I think its HTC sense not playing nice with Facebook. Had the same problem with another rom and reflashed a couple others. HTC has confirmed it I think.

I tried the uninstall/reinstall avenue, but no luck. Is there any way that I can revert to the stock ROM that my phone came with? I'm missing out on a LOT of contact details without facebook. Plus contact images
Weird Facebook HTC sync works fine for me, using 1.4c
Reverted back to the nandroid backup. Some posts point to a Facebook issue. Will try out in a few days. I has the sad.

Try this, it might help:
"Settings" > "Programs" > "Manage applications" > "Facebook for HTC Sense"
1) Click on "Clear data" + "Clear cashememory"
It shall work by now. However, u have a weird ROM so try this if it still doesn't work:
2) "Settings" > "Accounts and synchronization" > "Facebook for HTC Sense" > "Remove the account"
This fixed my FB sync problem for good

Hey guys help here, anything comes up everytime I sign in. I put the Facebook and friend stream widget but its all clear. I tried to sign in more than once. The strange things is that nothing comes up when I sign. Anybody know why!?
HTC DESIRE #1
It usually takes a while for me before its fully loaded the updates. How long are you leaving it to update before signing in again?
Sent from my Galaxy Tab
Not even a min. Is it that's why you think!? So should I leave it blank for a while!?
HTC DESIRE #1
With twitter it let me go thru right away and the updates were fast but w/ Facebook after I log in another same page shows up asking me to log in again I do it again but nothing nappens. Same with widget.

Hey guys, have you encountered your sms got wiped out? I uninstall launcherpro and suddenly handcent got force closed and then the next moment I know is my sms got wiped out already.
Any ideas about this?
Sent from my Desire HD using Tapatalk
Same happened to me on stock v2.2. This seems to be a common Android issue and likely related to the amount of SMS messages you had. Mine were 2500+ after importing from my old phone.
Google this for more info: android Issue 5669
That's weird! My sms is definitely less than 500 to start with it. Any other ideas? Common android issue? Don't have the issue previously with htc desire.

I know its not helpful now, but check out SMS Backup + on the market. It backs up your SMS, MMS & Call logs to your GMail. And best of all, its free.
Latest DHD OTA update seems to improve SMS stability. The messages app crashed but did not lose the messages with the update this time.

Hi Guys,
Today the messaging app on my HTC Desire HD would not start (force closing all the time). My provider (Orange) got me to take out the battery to reboot, which did get it working again - the downside was that all the messages were gone.
Now I had about 1400+ messages, which luckily I'd backed up to an xml file, Orange reckon it's the volume of messages that's causing the problem as they're stored on the SIM card - does anyone know of an app that will move them to the SDcard, the phone does not provide that option as far as I can see.
I really don't want to lose the messages and it was fine on my HTC Hero.
Regards,
Grabbit
Hi, search the market for SMS Backup & Restore. It does exactly what your after.

Desire HD after the official 2.3.3 update.
official stock rom, no root. auto sync is on. facebook is sync once a day.
I am using Facebook for HTC sense and it worked fine until the update.
now when my friends change their profile picture it willl not update my people app, not even after manual sync.
when i look at the facebook profile of a contact (from people app, select one contact and then press on "facebook profile") it shows my the updated profile picture,
but when i go back to the people app it is still showing the old profile picture.
1. i tried to unlink contact, sync and then link them again. no change.
2. i tried to remove facebook for HTC sense and then add it again, the profile pictures were updated but only once. (any change since then is not updated).
3. i did factory reset then put everything back. the profile pictures were updated but since then any change to profile picture is not updated again.
please help.
no one knows??
please help.
i have the same problem, im waiting for a solution too!
the same problem here after update my HTC

This is not the same issue because the article is about Facebook app from the market and not about Facebook for HTC sense.
The people app still use contact information from Facebook for HTC sense (like birthdays, phone number...) and only the profile picture is not updating.
If it was the same issue then the profile picture and all the contact information would not appear in people app when the account was added.
I had exactly the same issue when I got the OTA update for my old HTC Hero from (if I remember correctly) 1.5 to 1.6. I found that issue EXTREMELY annoying.
I contacted HTC many times on that, they never solved the issue. (I then lost my Hero and got an HTC DESIRE HD. I haven't upgraded to 2.3 yet, and if that issue is confirmed I'd rather not do it!).
PS: something I tried - but didnt work for me: go to your facebook profile (**from a PC**) and remove the HTC sense app, and then let the phone re-request/install that
The problem is the account of facebook htc sense, becuase if i syncronize the account of classic facebook that create the app, the pics are updatated.
If you use , both the accounts, facebook htc sense syancronized every day for example and facebook classic disabled, the contacts have 2 facebook profiles in details, but the main pic will be from facebook htc sense (not upgrated).
So, sense 2.1 bug?
sir, have you tried using the app called "syncmypix"? its in the market =)
I too have this problem. I'm not using the stock rom but I have tried Android Revolution HD and LeeDroid and the problem exists for me on both.
facebook classic app update the photos, but quality is very bad
facebook for htc sense, not working.
I think that it's a bug.

I've contacted HTC about that issue and their replay was:
"Thank you for contacting HTC
there could be a conflict between 3rd party applications that you downloaded.
Would you please try to remove any 3rd party application and remove the facebook application and reinstall it again."
htc are useless. they can't help.

It's a common issue with HTC Sense to suddenly stop updating things, then just as suddenly start updating things again. Contacting HTC is no good, because they are not prepared to admit that the Desire HD's software has he occasional glitch.
htc suggested to boot up in safe mode (that disable all 3rd party applications) and then check if problem still exists.
sync facebook for htc sense and check if pictures updated.
(safe mode: restart the device -> press vol. down when htc logo appears utill phone boot up)
it did not helped me but might help you.
