I tried to add a new Facebook account and it says an error occurred and to try again later? Is there any fix for this? By the way I am using Kenn's 2.3.4 beta #4 rom. Thanks
Im not having any issues with facebook or friend caster pro or social networking apps from motor blur. I know before I wasn't able to add fb accounts I had to log Into Blur but it was broken at the time so I had to create a new blur account I was able to just use the same info(email and password) as before then it let me add facebook. Im not sure if that will help you or not but its worth a shot

Hi guys,
I thought I did this on my first Gtab before I RMA'd it, but I'm currently syncing my google account with the Vegan Tab, but I want Gmail to ask for a password before showing my e-mail. How do I do this? Thanks!

I'm not sure how to make Gmail require a login, but you probably could use one of the application protection apps on the Market to require a password on individual apps, including Gmail.
EDIT: Yeah, just tested Application Protection by ruimaninfo. Works fine on Vegan Ginger RC1.
Thanks ! I'll give it a shot
Heya,
My facebook account from the Facebook for Android app doesn't want to add to My Accounts properly. I'm going to try and explain this in detail, and hope that I'm not the only one with this problem.
GingerBlur 1.3
4.1.57 with GladRoot
No motoblur frozen except for whatever Gingerblur did.
I log out of "Facebook for Android" and goto Settings > Accounts (Only motoblur and Google account are there)
Goto Add Account > Facebook (not the motoblur one; the bottom one)
It opens the facebook app, then asks me to login (so I do)
It brings me to the help and tips page where I click finish
It takes me to my news feed without adding the account
If I login and press the back key on the tips page, it gives me the option to choose what I want to sync, however when I choose, it takes me to the tips page (or back key to the previous page) and clicking finish STILL doesn't add the account.
If I goto add the account when I'm already logged in, the selection will just light up when I click it, and won't load the facebook app at all.
I've even tried SBF flashing back to stock and retrying all these steps at various stages of my "reinstalling everything" process.
Twitter adds itself fine automatically after I login to the app itself.
PLEASE HELP ME D:
sbf will fix fb sync issues. Some mods and roms will break fb. If you want fb sync: sbf, gladroot, update, retain root. I can confirm you can be on the newest firmware w/ root and working fb sync. But any other mods or roms after that could potentially break fb sync, and from looking around the forums it seams a majority do break it.

Nope, since facebook took out that feature after android warned them about it breaching their terms and conditions.
I have a question about the 2.3.4 hktw build is there a fix to sync Facebook contacts? I know blur isn't being used but is there another method to add fb contacts to address book
Try the blur fix.
I wish there was a way to fix exchange syncing. I can't get my email or contacts.

I've been using the version from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=775007. It can be installed alongside BlurEmail from Motorola. It uses a separate "Exchange" type account outside of MotoBlur under accounts.
Note: This version has been hacked to remove the Exchange security features. Using this against secured, corporate Exchange is grounds for firing in some companies. (If anyone has stock Gingerbread email without this hack, I would love to have a copy.)
I use it against Zimbra, because BlurEmail frequently truncates Zimbra emails with no option to "Get More". Using this on 2.2.x allowed me to read all my email, but I couldn't click on links or copy text from the email. It seems to work perfectly on 2.3.4 though.
Just found http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=15164552 that was pulled from 2.3.4 samsung. It might work for you too without the concern about the security hack. I haven't tried it though.
EDIT: I installed this version. It seems to work fine. In the menu there is an icon that looks like a Volume icon that seems to actually be refresh.
That was an easy fix by just creating a new motor blur acount and adding the social networks to the accounts tab.

I downloaded the facebook app and signed in to it. It doesn't show up under Accounts at all.

I downloaded the fb app and it shows up but it doesn't allow you to add it even when you click on it... quite frustrating because blur doesn't sync the calendar either...

I always use the FB app, and never had any issues with it yet.
I have an droid eris with a stock rom 2.1
i cannot sync my contacts through facebook for htc sense for my acoount only
if i use my friend's account the sync occurs
but if i use my account it gives a com.htc.bg force close error
i have tried almost every method
plzz help
xtrsense also not helping
i flashed xtrsense rom
tried to sync with logcat on
and what i noticed was an error
i have uploaded an image of the error
can someone tell me what is the error all about????
As I recall it, somebody reported an error message like that with FB syncing if you have contacts with apostrophes in the name, such as O'Brien. It was something like that. Perhaps it's if your name has an apostrophe?
I don't know if that helps, but that's one thing I recall.
Another idea is to flash a non-HTC custom ROM, (e.g., one of the Gingerbread ROMs), and use the official Facebook app to sync with contacts.
