HTC news not syncing - Desire General

Hi
I just noticed that HTC news app (and widget) doesn't automatically sync at set intervals.
Also, if I go to Settings - Accounts & Sync and I want to add news account to sync, when I tap it nothing happens.
Anybody else having this problem, or some suggestions to what might be wrong?
Cheers

I did a factory reset on my phone and never had a problem since. I know its not ideal but at least it works

Yes, afraid that is the only way

Damn! 2 or 3 weeks ago I had the wireless not working after latest OTA, sorted now now but I had to start from scratch. Not again...
Isn't there some clever abd command to sort this? I can sync manually...

OTA Froyo News Widget Problem

Hey everyone, does anyone know the solution to get the news widget to automatically update on froyo? I have to manually update it each time, and I have the automatic settings set for every hour too. Friendstream and weather updates are working fine too.
+1
same problem, but i doubt there is any solution...
Strangely, my news widget never automatically updated before I updated to 2.2 but since I've flashed one of the new 2.2 ROMs it's started updating as it should. I just assumed it was the same for everyone else? I was on a T-Mobile ROM for 2.1.
I just made a thread about this with a solution. A factory reset is your friend.

That's a hell of a way to solve the problem though - reinstall all the apps, set up all the home screens again...
Well I thought I'd just give it a go seeing as pretty much all my apps are showing in the market now anyway. I love the news widget when it worked, most probably the most commonly used thing on ky phone next to internet and picture messaging.

It's easy. Just add to the auto sync settings.

Except that when I go to Sync > Add Account and press News nothing happens.
Just to let you all know It's working fine for me now, over 24 hours since I did the reset.

Exchange mail problems
I've never been able to set correctly my exchange mail. Do not know if this is related to a problem with HTC's implementation or to my (poor) knowledge of it.
I set it correctly and can receive/send mails but after some time, say 1 week, it is not able to sync anymore even though the settings are correct. Yours the same issue?

HaxSync 2.30

Been using HAxSync for a while, well i noticed it wasnt updating pictures. So i removed the account and readded it. Thus losign all my synced fb contacts and their photos. Now it wont resync them. Im guessing facebook changed something and which is why its not able to pull them down. Anyone know anything about it/ or having the same problem?
Re-install Haxsync, go to settings>apps>haxsync>Clear data. Then try again?
Tried that, same thing
:-\
That's weird. It's working for me.
OH WAIT, I had the same problem 2 days ago. Umm umm, go to accounts&sync>Haxsync>Settings and login again! Keep doing that. I know you've tried but keep doing it 2-3 times.
I know this won't help you, but HaxSync is working fine for me as well...
Oddly enough, the same is happening to me as well. After having it working fine for weeks, Haxsync just up and stopped syncing my contacts yesterday too. Tried uninstalling my 2.29, updated to 2.30 and tried to resync to either a FC or not syncing and telling the system that it was finished in 30 seconds. Odd. Maybe it's a server issue?
Running CM9 on the HTC EVO.
There was and update a while back. The developer said to update at once due to Facebook was changing the way they send their info.

Wait I am having the same problem. I just email the developer. I suggested you all do the same.

Facebook seems to have some kind of issue today, I've been getting tons of reports. I suggest you wait a day or two and try again then. I don't have access to my dev machine until monday, so let's hope Facebook fixes their API. Cheers, Mathias
Its back up.

I have same problem with stock HTC client on my HTC One S :silly:
Seems to be a known issue with Micro$oft fiddling with their servers.
Lots of info on the M$ support pages

I used the stock Hotmail app, which has worked fine until a few weeks ago, does not always recieve now, and does not send anything !!!
I prefer this over the APP above from Microsoft as that only gives the option to download the past 7 or so days which is annoying.
Do you use custom ROMs or did someone of you have the same problem with the stock ROM? I noticed the problem the first time after unlocking the bootloader and flashing a custom ROM. This is now my fifth custom ROM from a different developer with the same Problem. I thought it might be a problem with some tweek the chefs use.
The hotmail App from the market is working fine but I would prefer the stock HTC app too
Just set it up as a POP3 mail account.
There's a limit to how many requests your phone can fire off though, so set it to sync every 30 minutes.
Rooted from day 1 so can't compare, although like I said it was working until a week or so ago and that would have been about a month on a combination of Leedroid and Pokemon. Now using viperx, still no joy.
same here
tried my Live mail, it works..they are the same servers right?
Hi all, i'm having the same issues running on ARHD 7.1 & ARHD kernel.

Sync is currently experiencing problem, it will be back shortly.

Thanks
nobody idea?

The native app for hotmail was working perfectly for me at first, the only thing that didn't work was Youtube, but only doing an update (unapplying the update restored youtube function.
After rooting and flashing a ROM all video caused reboots and the native hotmail app stopped working.
After flashing back to RUU and re-rooting, hotmail apps still does not function but all other apps working correctly.
Really hoping that there's a fix somewhere for the stock Hotmail app since I'm not partial having multiple apps for email.

The sync will come as disabled if your auto-sync is off. Switch auto-sync on and then try.
@tadas_max
sure you're entering right details ? Give other twitter apps a try ubersocial, tweetcaster, etc.

Some apps require auto-sync to be switched on and some don't.

Make sure you're right about the password. **** ups happen to the best of us lol! especially on a touch screen.
That's VERY weird. Tried restarting, flashing roms, factory reset?

I can login using stock browser, so I guess password is not the issue. I am on stock, non rooted phone. Tried restarts, clearing data etc. I guess the only sollution would be factory reset, but ill wait for JB ota, since I do factory resets after each ota
It was working perfect all the time. But one day I started the Twitter app and it said "cannot retrieve post or something like that". After that I tried to remove twitter from my sync account, cleared data, restart phone. Tried to re add Twitter account but when I enter the login info it says "error occurred...try again later"
Sent from my HTC One X
Problem solved. I can login again. The problem was that in time and date settings I needed to select automatic settings. Weird
