HTC peep - Desire General

hi all
I recently noticed that my friendstream was not updating. So i logged out and tried to log back in but it is saying username/password incorrect which it is not. i have change my password and email address and it still doesnt work. Anyone got any ideas.
Thanks
Jonathan

I think I saw a thread a few days ago about this - something to do with https or something...
Sorry its a bit vague - I was using the official Twitter client more these days - but have a search in the forum - I am sure this was brought up recently
e.g. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1016439&highlight=htc+peep

Yeah, seems Twitter have now changed to use HTTPS and sounds like it's knocked out Peep - Official apps works fine but HTC are going to have to update the Desire to get it working again

Yeah have no seen that its effecting a lot of people.
I have notice that HTC as released a fix for windows mobile devices. But nothing yet for android.

the WinMo fix for Peep I think was a security hole in their s/w rather than this issue if it was the one released a couple of months back.

Double-check on your Twitter account and see if you're using HTTPS - if you are see if turning it off works?

I had the exact same problem - Cannot log in!
T-Mobile customer services said it was my problem......grrrrr!
No it is your problem - please sort it!
I have had to add a bloated Twitter app....come on HTC, if you tie in these "apps" into the software - keep on top of it - OR allow us to remove the "app" as normals apps can be removed!
Rant over....for now!

i dont use it my self but they fix it

Mine works fine just logged in no problem, odd it only affects certain people.

By the time it takes T-Mobile to do anything helpful, you might as well have bought another phone!

the advice to NOT use https does not work - same issue.
HTC are at fault here for not keeping their eye on the ball (well eye on Twitter that is!)
I will forgive them when they release gingerbread shortly!

not the first time peep has been having issues.
tried reporting it to htc? they'll probably say wait for a future update.
or in the meantime try the official app

News widget and facebook profile updates

Hi guys
I've written to HTC about the fact that the news widget doesn't update automatically and about the fact that the facebook profile pictures on your contacts doesn't also, but they've told me it must be something wrong with my phone as they've had no other complaints.
Looking on this website though suggests otherwise, so if you encounter this problem, pls leave your thoughts on here so that I can reply back with the link saying it's not an isolated incedent.
Cheers
I have the same problem, they just can't be bothered to check lol

I knew I wasn't the only one so the more people we have on this thread say they have the same problem, hopefully this'll get them to move their arse and get it fixed!
I have the problem with the News widget also.

My facebook contact photos don't update either. I've tried deleting their facebook account from their contact, then added them again, but even then it just goes back to the old photo, even though the facebook profile I've added has a completely different photo.
no, the news widget doesn't update. there have been a few threads about it already.
also, I emailed them about it myself and I'm sure I'm not the only one so it's strange that they would say they're not aware of it. I guess people aren't passing the message along...
I don't use the HTC News widget but the Facebook pictures not updating is bugging me.
I'm going to write an email to HTC support right now (along with some other bugs and problems).
Before you do that, search this forum for the threads about the issue and provide links in your email, so they know it's widespread.
Maybe part of the problem is that we're all in different parts of the world and emailing our local HTC support.
If one branch isn't receiving a lot of complaints about it, they might not communicate it to the central support team.

Will do. Though I have to wait a few more minutes until my Desire is charged. I need to check my serial number before I send anything
I've had the issue with the Facebook photos too. Removing the facebook sync then readding it worked, but the OTA update I had from TMobile the other night reinstated some old pictures that aren't even current on Facebook???

EDIT:
HTC mail widget does not refresh the email list when a new email is received. The email application itself needs to be opened in order to refresh the email list.
I know some of them are either well known or maybe not 100% HTC's fault but I just want to let them know (or remind them) that these problems still exist.
Otherwise they won't fix anything without proper feedback.
I might have forgotten some of the issues so if someone has a problem and my Desire does suffer from it I can add it to my list.
When listening to the FM radio and a text message comes in, the radio is muted to allow the alert sound to play but the radio then remains muted (even if closed down and restarted). Only a soft reset fixes problem.
News widget not updating automatically.
I will try to reproduce the FM radio problem. If it really behaves this way I will add it to the list.
The HTC News widget will be added as well - I can confirm this already.
Thanks for the input so far. I am still compiling the list so feel free to add some more issues.
Is there much point considering we will be getting FroYo in 13 days?

Will we? So far I haven't heard anything official about Froyo on Desire. It can take several months until HTC decides to release it.
Until then I would like to have these issues resolved as they are quite annoying and in some cases just plain stupid.
I know some of them may be irrelevant or not so important for others but for a device of such caliber I expected better and more reliable functionality.
And I would like to let HTC know about it...
Have you read this:

You are posting a duplicated post, and the best you can do is add your problems to the other post since is sticky and have been here for a very long time now!
But if you want to send these "bugs" to HTC i'm with you - be sure to also add the ones that are on the post i referred since there are many more...
What about the pink screen ?:

Hi, there is/are xda threads about that already, which personally I am experiencing too; shut down takes 10-15 mins or even longer. Don't know if any app/s cause this matter or a bug in Desire, but as said this is a common concern.

* some contacts which are connected with one or more facebook accounts and/or gmail contacts change their names randomly (e.g. i set a contact to use FB name and next time i get there it's using email address)
* when I receive an sms from a web gateway, e.g. from vodafone, in the messaging app the phone puts in a thread with a facebook account which has no phone number (a blank one, created by the phone itself and that I can't seem to be able to delete)
* alarm doesn't ring if phone is off
hey man why don't you tell them to make an option to save the images taken by camera as dates instead of image# (number)
i copy my images into folders and everytime i take new images i need to rename them before moving them along or i will have filename conflict because my camera everytime starts from the same numbers...if the name was according to date they would be sorted as i want them and no problem moving them around too.
low res contact pics... a fix would be great

[Q] HTCSense.com

Is it just me or can anyone else not access the manage contacts section ?
All i can do is remote lock, remote wipe & ring at full volume.
I thought there were meant to be more features
Does it looks like the image attached at my post?
I contacted HTC already 2 times about this, but they keep saying they're ''working on it''..
I hope they fix it soon, anyway.. i'm already developing my own htcsense.com-like app
Yeah, except Locate Phone isn't even working for me
I can confirm that it's the same for me too on HTCSense.com Greece.
In Poland the same HTC support said they should fix it till the end of this year ... HEHE 2 days left I don`t think so ...
Known issue. Just wait and see, can't do much more...
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
Same here in Holland, can't do anything with htcsense.com
I have spoke to HTC about this and this is the (some what vague) reply i got:
Sorry for the inconvenience. But htc sense has had to go under further construction to get all of the features to work. As they are always modifying the website etc. it is stopping the phone finder and phone ringer features from working. It is also stopping customers creating and logging in on our website.
You may find the features to work and then stop again, as they are very intermittent.
So please keep trying to create an account and log in, as eventually it will work because not all of our customers are having issues at this moment in time.
Htc apologise for the inconvenience. And hope to get the website working and fully functional as soon as possible.
HTC can confirm that HTC Sense.com is currently in development for use in a near future. Specific device variants, including regional or national variations that will have access have not yet been confirmed. Once more detailed information is available on the release date and which of the devices will use this feature then a more formal announcement will be made. We recommend following us in Twitter for instant notifications at http://twitter.com/htc_eu
I trust that this resolves your query, please do not hesitate to contact us again if required.

OH, and by the way, this was me asking them why the messages and contacts options had disappeared.

It seems like htcsense.com is STILL not working properly. I only see the dashboard and can locate my phone and make it ring, but nothing else is there. You may have several hours after your registration for even the dashboard to show up. Also try a different browser - in the beginning the site didn't work in my Firefox for some reason, but it worked in Chrome - go figure
Still isn't working for me.
I tried to remotely lock my phone as a test, it didn't lock but now the website says my phone is locked
I tried using HTCSense.com yesterday, it was my first time since december. I cannot believe that the software is still broken. It is even more broken than it was on december.

Same here, it keeps telling me I need to enable the locate my phone phone finder on my phone. Except it had been enabled since day one and I've never disabled it ever. :/
It works for me, but I can only use the dashboard (no contacts, footprints, whatever). Oh and the lock phone option takes a while to kick in.
Woao. The locate phone actually worked, no more Nigeria for meh! It was off for only like 50m. I turned on Locations while it was scanning for my phone, dunno if it worked just because of that.
i think all the things you can do on your phone.i don't think htcsense.com is very useful,but on your phone it can backup your settings and contacts.This is useful.

[Resolved] Twitter Apps not working - mobile site does

Hi there.
Yesterday I Chevronunlocked my HTC 7 Mozart (T-Mobile branded).
I used this xap to prevent it from re-locking, then updated to NoDo (7.0.7392)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1009974
After that my WP7 was still unlocked - so far so good. Today I noticed that I can not use any Twitter app on my phone anymore. All - including the official twitter app (rowi, motweet, beeez, birdsong etc.) tell me they can't authenticate. I retried multiple times with my username and email address, all to no avail. I made sure my password is correct, and I can sign in fine on the Twitter website (regular site from my PC and mobile site from my WP7).
Does anyone know what might be wrong? Or how I can fix it (without re-formating my phone)?
thanks in advance

Birdsong & Rowi have both been updated through the marketplace to fix this issue, Beezz won't work anymore unless its updated, and not sure if the official app got updated... Twitter changed its permission settings last week which broke a lot of third party apps, they all need to have a method to reauthenticate now

Actually, the only thing that was changed is Direct Messages. So if an app wasn't updated to support the new Direct Messages API, it would no longer be able to access DMs, but everything else is still the same as always and should continue to work as normal. Both rowi and Birdsong were updated to access DMs with the updated API.
I don't even see any development or updates from Beezz at all, so I completely ignore its existence.
If none of your Twitter apps are working, there could be something wrong with your setup of your phone or your installation of Windows Phone 7 is broken. Which means you may have to hard reset.
Thanks for the replies.
Yeah, I feared that a hard reset is the only way... so i'll just unbrand it while I am at it, a hard reset will relock the device, wont it? So I have to fully reflash anyways.
Thanks again, even though I have some work to do now
Not true, Rowi had many more issues pop up due to the dm permission change... I'm not sure why, but they made it clear on their twitter... I use the app, my live tile even stopped behaving properly, it wouldn't reset, just kept adding to the previous number until I got that update

Log in problem with the official Twitter app.

Just wanted to find out if anyone is experiencing log in problems with the official twitter app on Windows Phone. I cant log in since 3:00 pm yesterday and it's driving me nuts. Have tried everything from reinstallation to time change etc but still not able to log in. Please help.

I think it's a common error of the host network .
fewer people using that type of mindless nonsensical BS is beneficial to society as a whole, however, so you may consider halting your attempt to login
Thanks y'all. Thought hard reset will solve the problem but still not able to login after hard reset...regret I even did it coz I've lost important lab files....oh my!

The Twitter app leaves a lot to be desired. I either use the built-in people hub or Seesmic when working with Twitter on my WP.

Agree!
That is why I would recommend Mehdoh [or our twitter client - TwiDeep]. Have heard good things about Carbon as well.
You should try out Rowi or Carbon. They are both excellent twitter client for Windows Phone.
The problem I'm facing is that, no twitter app seems to work now on my phone. They all give me twitter authorization error. Went to the site to make some changes but still. Now I think it's a general problem coz all my friends are experiencing the same thing. Contacted twitter but they are not aware of any situation. All apps that require twitter authorization are not working and I'm now frustrated. Can it be a geolocation services in my region.

Kenzibit, had this anoying problem here and what i discover is that once u signed with your Live ID and then add Twitter account from settings, this account become linked to your ID and then this error starts cause you arew already signed in twitter and then the official app understand that and cant sign u account.
What i had to do is signed first with other ID that i had that i use only for business so no contacts no Twitter,Facebook nothing linked to this account than i download Twitter and worked since. Try this.
Ok thanks but this means, I have to hard reset again because WP does not allow signing out of you live ID, not even delete although you can delete all other accounts (gmail, yahoo, outlook etc). One I have signed in with this Live ID, I can't sign out untill hard reset....something I really don't wanna do beacuse I have a lot of unbacked up files, information and settings. I have to be ready before I do this. Any suggestions before I try this step?

Wow...I went to my windows live ID and removed all associated social networks and apps and hard reset again (for the 8th time and now fear phone might start acting funny). Installed twitter app first, loged in and hurray i'm in.
Now fear if it will stop working again after adding all the removed apps and social networks. This wasn't so before why is it happening to me now.
Anyways thanks for your suggestion becuase it really worked.
All the best in what you do.
