Go into the Accounts & Sync menu under settings. do another "Add Account", there you should see a second Facebook account icon, click there and login to your facebook account.
If you've already done this, go back to the Account & Sync menu, and click the Facebook for HTC Sense and remove account, re-add it and reboot.
I always have that same issue when setting up a new ROM, and you just have ot play with the settings under Facebook for HTC Sense and sometimes even removing and re-adding helps.

Tried All those options but nothing worked and my whole life is on facebook

Under the People app, click menu and view. make sure you have your Facebook checked.

You may want to avoid creating MULTIPLE threads for the same issue.
Check your other thread in the general section for an answer.

Sorry bout the other thread thing i want this issue resolved and i did check and facebook is checked

Stock Rom? Ask the Facebook App developer. Uninstall and reinstall. Wipe the phone and reinstall. I am using Stock Rom non-rooted and having no issue. Are you sure you have the correct username and password?

If you're still not having any luck, I'd have to agree with tgruendler, try a wipe and start over. As far as the Stock ROM, did you download and install it after rooting.
If that's the case, try one of the custom ROMS

Can u give me links and tell me how to do this??

I have the same problem as you.
I went back to rooted stock and i can't get it to find my friends. everythign else, including the friend stream syncs up fine.
I have wiped and reinstalled...same problem.

I'm having the same issue. I installed Fresh 1.0.1, and I wasn't able to re-sync, but when I reflashed my backup (which was working before), it still wouldn't connect.
Maybe Facebook is having issues today?

[Q] Facebook Sync contacts with Myn's

Yeah, it's another FB syncing problem.. I've look far and wide and couldnt find a solution, so here goes...
Rooted runnin Myn's ROM; before the root I did a backup with Titanium and then was able to restall my apps w/ no problem, EXCEPT FB for HTC sense... So I'm trying to get my contacts to sync like I did when I first got the phone, I go to MENU > Accounts & Settings > Add Account > and there are two FB options (FB for android that I got from the market and FB for Sense) ... I can click on the FB for android and it does nothing, just sits there, when I click on the FB for HTC Sense it takes me to the login screen but always says "Warning, the Service is currently unavailable. do you want to try again?"
Ok, so I can get on FB with the Android app and it all works fine.. but when I try to restore the app from TB it just gives the option to restore data and not the app.. And I guess you can't get it from the market right?..
Ok, I know that was long but thanks for the ideas... and I've already tried rebooting, but havent tried to flashing the ROM again, didnt want to do that unless I had to...
One more, when I flash a ROM, how do I restore my homescreen set-ups? - I use Amon Ra recovery and Titanium to B/U apps/data.. thanks again

[Q] Cleared data from Peep now cant log back in

So last night my wife asked if FriendStream on my phone had any tweets in it. It did but hers had not updated for over a day. I opened Peep and hit refresh and waited for it to update did this a few times and the latest it would get was still over 24 hours old.
Having seem similar problems before I cleared the cache of FriendStream its widget and Peep, Still wouldn't update so I cleared their data and that's where it went wrong.
Opened Peep and it had to the login boxes greyed out and a button saying logout, so I did and then tried to login I get Unable to sign in.
"You entered an incorrect username or password".
I have tried rebooting a few times and adding the account back in Accounts and Sync same problem, tried my account same problem, tried my wife's account on my phone and it logs in fine.
I have tried checking/unchecking SSL makes no difference, I know this happened a while back when Twitter changed there login API but it seems I broke something clearing Peeps data without removing the account in accounts and sync or it was broken already and that's why it would update and I brought the login problem to the surface.
If this was a normal app I would try and reinstall it but now I don't know what to do.
1) Can someone with a stock ROM confirm Peep is working and updating. My Desire has LeeDroid with a slightly newer Peep.
2) I have extracted htctwitter.apk from the Modaco ROM can you install this and have it overwrite the installed Peep on a stock un-rooted phone?
3) Any suggestions apart from do a factory reset? and if a factory reset is done any educated guesses if it will help?
4) Does a factory reset mean you have to OTA again or is the OTA written into the image when its applied?
Thanks for any help, seems I broke the wifes most used feature of the phone Not a good idea on my part.
Snowdan.

Turns out Peep version 1.00.0061.26XXXX that ships with stock T-Mobile phones no longer works with twitter, T-Mobile are aware and talking to HTC about an OTA to fix this.

I'd try backing up all the stuff you need, then factory reset and re-update.

Hello galacticu,
I personally use Rerware Backup Pro and i never regretted the purchase. Bought it for half price when it was eoy sale. Everytime i test out another rom i backup everything, then flash my phone to whatever rom i want to try out and restore my sms over it. With the restore i just select sms. Everything seems to just restore itself the contacts, installed apps, ...etc. I know exactly how you are feeling and it will hurt if i do lose all those smses. Since some of them are funny to read. Personally i never had an issue with this app.

I suggest the SMS Backup+ frome the market.
backup all your messenges to your Gmail, and labled "SMS".
For the update 2.3.5 recently, I use this app to do backups

[Q] In need of help

I have T-mobile G-2/ Rooted and running CyangenMod-7.0.2 vision (side note: I had someone root the phone for me I have very limited technical skills and reading these threads for me me is like reading greek.....back to my issue) as with all androids phone a g-mail account is required long story short I had a stalker and deleted my g-mail account replaced it with another. The new account will not sync my contacts or calender. I've looked everywhere and tried asking google for help> my only option it seems is to reset my phone back to factory setting. I'm also having a problem with short battery life, the battery never charges to 100% Ive installed juice defender, should I replace the battery? I don't want to lose my root and I don't know how to root it again on my own. If any one can help me it would be appreciated

factory reset wont loose root
are there multiple gmail accounts on your phone? if you log on to new gmail account from computer can you see your contacts? in phone under accounts and sync is contacts box checked? you can try to reset batt stats first to see if batt life improves

I don't have multiple g-mail account The 1st was deleted the 2nd is the current one using on my G-2 I still get prompted to sign into 1st even tho it doesn't exists. I've tried sync for the 2nd account it doesn't work. when I log into my new g-mail account I only see recently added contacts
I will try batt reset

just save all you have on phone. do a nandroid backup via recovery to be safe.
go into recovery and try just wiping cache and dalvik cache, boot backinto phone and see if you can log in and sync
if you cant factory reset and start fresh.

I have ROM Manager installed on my phone can I use that to back everything up?
Sent from my HTC G-2 using XDA

titamiumbackup for apps and such
sms bckup + for call logs and sms
some launchers allow you to back up home screens
but the crucial thing is boot into recovery and do a nandroid backup
this will make an exact copy of your nand flash and revert it just the way it is
in case something went wrong, always do this if you change roms as well

Thanks for all your help, everything was understanderble, even for me I've followed your advice step by step....like I said I'm technically challenged and It took me all weekend to try this
I backed everything up both nandroid and titanium did the phone reset. the only thing is when I do the restore the old g-mail account is still there, I've wiped the devlic and the cache it's still there
Any thoughts

dont use the nandroid to restore, this is just in case other problems arise later. wipe all again and if you need some parts restore those from titanium or sms backup or what ever you feel you need. if your phone dosent have a whole lot of settings tweaked to your desire or a whole lot of apps then just start fresh. i flash a lot of roms and rarley do i use these restore features and when i do its usualy just certain data and not the apps. i spend a good hour or more tweaking and setting up my phone the way i like it after i flash a new rom. if you dont tweak much, just start fresh

Thank you for your patients I have 1 more question
Once I wipe everything & do factory reset will titanium remember my phone when I reinstall it
Sent from my HTC G-2 using XDA

titanium will store the info on your sdcard. you would then download titanium from the market and go into and choose a full batch restore or pick and choose what you want restored.

well as you said that you deleted your old account you will not be able to get your previous contacts. My suggestion is to see if you can restore your old acount(via pc) and then open gmail > contacts > more > export. Export them as a google csv and save on your desktop. later login into our new gmail account > contacts > more > import. now select your previously saved csv file and import. This should help you get all your contacts into google which can be synched to your phone using your new account.
PS: If google doesn't give you a method to restore your deleted account then what i said above is of no use. You should then follow demkantor's suggestions.

Ok so I made time this weekend to sit down and go thru the process of restoring my phone and thank for all the great advice. After a few tries, a few wipes and reboots I finally got my G-2 working how I wanted. Thank you for all your help
