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 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.

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...

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
No solution yet?

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.

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"

Problem solved. I can login again. The problem was that in time and date settings I needed to select automatic settings. Weird
