Im having an issue with Facebook sense. I noticed after restarting my phone for the first time that the Facebook friend stream was no longer updating even though it was set to update every hour and it was enabled, Looking in the setting menu confirmed this as the last updated time was not changing unless i forced a resync. Removing and re-adding the account worked for a while until I restarted the phone but as soon as I did the same issue manifested, it just wont automatically update. All other automatic updates seem to work.
Has anyone else encountered this issue and if so have you managed to find a resolution?
Cheers!
if you have the little power bar widget, with Bluetooth WiFi etc on, have you turned on the reloading sign?

Already checked that, every other app updates correctly just not facebook
log out then back in...it fixed my friends list not updating with new friends, probably will sort out th e friendstream (providing you've not already fixed it)
make sure its the facebook for htc rather than facebook for android tho !
How are you logging out of it?

I don't have my phone with me at the moment, but while logged into Facebook, is there no option to log out via the browser or when you press the Menu button?
I had that problem, fixed by going into settings and re-selecting the update frequency, seems to need repeating at each boot.
Does anyone know how to update contact pictures? My friends have updated their facebook prof pics but it isnt getting update to my phone.
i had to delete my facebook account then re-add it
Facebook integration seems a bit iffy on mine too. New friend facebook contacts do not show up on Contacts tab (to be linked). It seems the thing does not update without remove-re add.

Yeah I had to remove the account and re-add but then it only synced 30 contacts at first and then I had to keep resyncing 3 times to get all contacts synced.
Same here.....had to re-add my account
The first time it cut off at around 40. I rebooted the Desire, now I have the first 40 twice.

Solution
Had the same issue, just updated facebook and all better now...
not to beat a dead horse on this one, but I am having something along these issues with my FriendStream widget. The Facbook isn't updateing hourly like it should, I have tried the following to correct the problem:
Removed/Re-Added my account
Cleared all Cache Data
Cleared all Data
Reset the phone (factory Reset)
Updated Facebook
Really ata loss for what I should do from here, any ideas or suggestions would be awesome.
Log in to your Facebook profile and go into your Profile settings and enter a location in your workplace. Now try synch'ing your FB contacts on your HTC.
Worked for me and hearing reports of it working for others also.
Sorry dude, but I don't see anything that says "workplace" in my profile, are you refering to employer?
just tried this.
worked a treat for allowing the friendstream to show fbook updates.
still no synch with phonebook though

Yes.
I'd already set my employer in once before, but i deleted it earlier and re-entered it and my contacts suddenly started synch'ing again.
If only I could "like" this.

Try re-entering the account under Settings>Accounts & Sync see if it helps
It helps, but can only sync part of my facebook contact..

I did, as I had removed the account when it went wrong. still no phonebook synch.
I noticed when I flashed a new ROM that some facebook contacts were just missing when trying to link phone contacts to them. Others were there fine. I've since noticed that after a couple of days, some of those facebook contacts have appeared and I've successfully linked them to phone contacts. Others still aren't present. I'm presuming it's something at FB's end...
Just got this back from HTC Support..better late than never
We have been working with Facebook to determine a fix for your facebook problems. In the mean time, we have found that some customers have success when editing their work profiles on their Facebook page. If you have added a company and have checked the box next to “I currently work here,” simply add the City / Town of your office. This will allow for HTC Sense to communicate with Facebook without failing. I don’t want to reveal so much detail on my profile, is there another way? You can also delete the work information, and add it back after we have made the appropriate changes to solve this issue. What happened? There seems to have been a miscommunication between Facebook servers and your phone and that caused an inability to sync updates. Here’s the troubleshooting: Step Failure Action 1. User phone is connected to the internet. Connect phone to Wi-Fi or 3g internet 2. User has valid Facebook account Sign up for Facebook 3. User has Facebook work information. Make sure Work information has city / location, or remove Current work information. This should solve your problem.

My problem is I can't even open up friend stream. I get an "unexpected error" and it closes.

Doesn´t work for me ...
Good day. Sorry for my ignorance since this is my first android phone. But can anyone assist me on how to log out of facebook for android? When i log in, there is no option to log out anymore which means that when i click on the facebook icon, it would direct me to facebook under my log in account. So if someone uses the phone, he would not be able to use it since its in my account already. Mine is 2.3.3 version. I could only remove my log-in when i go to settings and remove my account in facebook.
This xperia roms are working together with facebook account. You probably would have problems after using another account especially with phonebook. So better tell them to use your browser like opera to check their fb once.thats what i do

Perhaps you can prevent access to the fb app by means of some locking app? That way you wouldn't have to worry about others using your profile.
I just tried to log out, it is ok.
just tab on the fb logo, it will open up the fb with 9 icons with notification menu, the press the Menu (right) button, and you can log out.
I am also on 2.3.3

You can log out all of your account by reboot your phone

You must be kidding. Reboot doesn't logout from FB ot Twitter.
What does log out is to clear ALL the data in App prefs in settings.
Clear data
You can go to settings/apps/Facebook and choose "clear data." This will remove your log-in information from the Facebook app.
I know the password and and email is right because i use the same to login on a pc or the mobile broswer, but it just won't let me login or the facebook app from the market. any suggestions?
Did you try uninstalling/reinstalling? Is your version of Facebook outdated?
Well the only way i can remove facebook for htc sense is by forcing an uninstall using super manager. I been flashing a few ROMs recently and noticed it wouldn't work. I have no idea when it stopped working. I just found a ROM I liked and decided to start linking my accounts.
Oh, I was under the impression you were using the market Facebook. Try downloading it from the market. I never link my Facebook to HTC Sense, I skip it, and I download the one from the market.
yea not working either...

I recommend Synergy or Shooter(Joel's or wildstang's). They are solid roms.
I think it's a FB issue. It always worked for me but now won't work on any ROMs.

Seems to be working for em everytime I flash a new rom.
Check your Facebook Account>Security>Login Approvals setting from your PC. If it is set to Required, every time you flash a new ROM and reinstall a Facebook app, FB sees a new, unauthorized device and sends an SMS to the device with a numeric code for you to enter instead of your password.

Ive looked at this setting as it was suggested to me over in the thunderbolt-synergy thread, and it was disabled. Ive had this same problem for a couple days now after installing a new rom. Even going to a backup, it keeps telling me to re-enter my password when I try to sync my facebook account, and then tells me I entered a wrong user name or password. I do think it is a problem on facebooks end, but the weird thing is my girlfriend is having no problems with signing in to facebook for htc sense or the market facebook app.
I'll try the facebook account settings, but every ROM I flash it doesn't make a difference.

The facebook account settings didnt make a difference to me. Still wont let me sign in.
So I found a method that worked for me to fix HTC sense. I created a new email account with gmail and made it my new primary email with facebook. That's under account settings. Once I made it the new primary, i tried htc sense and it worked. Logged me right in. Let me know if this works I can give more detailed instructions per request.

Thank you. I was able to sign in after switching to my hotmail address as primary email. I wonder why we can't use our original email address. I was also able to sign into the market Facebook app.

It only seemed to be the Facebook for Htc sense and the market facebook app that wouldn't accept the old email. Seesmic had no problem signing in with my old email.
maybe you guys can help me with this problem. I recently had to hard reset my phone, but after re installing the app Facebook for HTC Sense it no longer tells me via notification bar which of my contacts has updated there facebook status. it used to show the people Icon with a syncing/refresh ring and tell me which of my contacts updated their status and pressing this would take me to my people app. is there anywhere on my phone where i can enable this? im on a Droid Inc
Hello XDA,
Even though i use XDA website often, this is my first post so Cheers ! to everyone out there..
Need some advice and help on an issue im facing currently. I recently purchased Zuk Z2 plus on the amazon offer for 9k odd :cyclops: and as usual before i could go ahead and root the device, i wanted to check how it performs for few days. So i started to install basic apps like Evernote, Shareit, Whatsapp, Outlook, VPN, etc etc and after syncing my contacts via google email, as i normally use to on all my devices, i saw something called "CardDav" and "iCloud" in "Advanced Settings -> Accounts & Sync -> Add account" .. and at the same time im unable to open the option called "...Other" under Accounts & Sync. And whenever i click "Others", it returns back to settings page. So basically i have no control over accounts and sync. Is this a known bug ? and how do i remove these CardDav, iCloud stuff.
Can someone shed some light on how this gets installed ? because i dont find this on my other devices (Oppo A57, redmi note, oneplus 3). I know that its a protocol for syncing contacts and this has something to do with Google Contact Sync but i would like to have control over my accounts. Any help would be appreciated..
Thanks !

Cool, will give a try and let you know if it works Thanks !
For those who are facing this issue, i resolved it by a simple factory reset, before i went ahead and unlocked my bootloader. I have installed the same apps which i had previously installed and verified the settings each time after setting the app up.
Its been 2 days and i havent faced the issue which i had previously. I have installed few major apps which could possibly auto sync your contacts like Linkedin, Outlook, Facebook, Whatsapp etc. Now i dont find carddav or caldav in my system and able to control my "Other" option in "Account & Sync"
@admin, you can close this thread if needed
worked for me by uninstalling airtel's wynk app
also worked by uninstalling Alipay app
