Hi all, hoping you can help with a problem I'm having.
Basically, my Hero was fine, working perfectly, until I cleverly managed to lock myself out of it by getting the security swipe wrong too many times.
Long story short, I did a factory reset (had only got the phone that day so didn't seem like a big deal to lose anything).
I rebooted it, contacts came back down through google, everything fine. Then I started getting this message when connecting contacts to facebook or viewing the 'my contact card'.
android.process.acore has stopped unexpectedly problem, force close
If I log out of facebook then I don't get the problem, but I'd like the facebook functionality. When I'm logged into facebook some contacts display facebook info, some don't.
My first thought was a dodgy contact, but all the contacts are the same as the first time I sync'd with google, so nothing should be wrong there I hope.
Anyway, any ideas?
Same problem
Hello,
I am having the same problem. I also posted a question regarding this problem yesterday in the forum but up until now I have received any answers. I also send an email to HTC support but haven't heard from them yet. I suggest you do the same, this way they can't say that this is a one time problem ;-)
I was about to do a factory reset, but now I am afraid that this isn't going to solve my problem. My phone has been working without any problems for 2 weeks with a lot of facebook people synchronised to my contacts. I think that 1of the facebook contacts has some illegal character is its name or description and thus giving this error.
Spoke to soon. This is the reply from HTC. But it isn't that helpfull I am afraid ;-(
Dear HTC customer,
Thank you for contacting our Customer Support Center. We are dedicated to providing you with the best quality service and answering all of your questions and concerns.
Thank you for your feedback, please try to do a hard reset of your phone to see if that solves the problem. You can do this by:
1. With the phone turned off, press and hold the HOME and BACK buttons, and then briefly press the END CALL/POWER button. The reset process will start after a few seconds.
2. Wait for the phone to finish the reset process and then press MENU.
If this does not solve the problem there should be a ROM update for the Hero coming out soon which could contain a fix for the problem. Try the hard reset if it doesn’t work keep an eye on htc.com for the ROM upgrade for the Hero.
If the above steps do not resolve your issue, we invite you to visit the support area on our Web site. Please go to: http://www.htc.com/www/support.aspx

How bizarre!
Tried it now and no problem, fantastic!
From one of those links....
"Lots of people getting it - seems like it could be a Facebook api change if you look at that thread."
I guess with the hero being SO connected with the web, a lot more than just the phone can break things. Ah well.
Thanks deeren.
Problem also solved
Problem is also solved for me.

i am having the same problem with android.process.acore and i have try everything in the phone and nothing seems to work. please if anyone knows how to fix write back. thanks.
Had this start happening to me today, immediately after I installed three updates from the market, Pure Messenger Widget, Titanium Backup and Fat Secrets. I don't think it was the latter two, I think it was Pure Messenger Widget. It was difficult to get that one to install, it took ages, and then it interferred with the download of the other two. Once I was through with the market the force closes started. Managed to shut the phone down but they came back, until I uninstalled Pure Messenger Widget. A few more reboots and it seems to be back to normal. I realize this is anecdotal, and I have no development experience so I have no logic to draw on here other than my own experience.

*Edited - Removed by poster*
Suddenly today my phone will not boot up, giving me the "the process android.acore has stopped ..." message. There are lots of forum threads suggesting possible causes and how to fix them, but none address the issue of when you can't switch on the device at all. I'm in an endless cycle of "force quit" and "the process android.acore has stopped". I'm at the point of having to factory reset, unless anyone can suggest anything please ...?

Unfortunately I think a factory reset is your only option at this point. That's what I had to do when my phone was doing the same thing. Hopefully you have a recent backup to fall back on, however, be careful - do not restore any system data, that's where the problem lies.
Many thanks. I've performed a factory reset and successfully restored a Sprite backup made five days ago. But to my great disappointment I find that none of my programs have been included. Is this normal? All other data, settings, etc have restored fine, just no programs. I can of course reinstall them one by one since my market data is saved in the cloud, but is that normal with a Streak backup, that programs are not included?
Have no idea why your programs weren't backed up, sorry. I use Titanium Backup Pro, so my backups are complete.

Make sure you've backed up everything you want backed up and do a factory reset - it seems to be the only way to fix this. If that doesn't fix it, then try flashing a custom ROM, I know that will work - that's how I ended up delving into the custom ROM world
I have had the same problem today and just finished doing a HARD factory reset with samsung...DOESN'T work...still get the error message and will not operate. Finally called AT&T warranty department and they are sending out yet ANOTHER phone..this will be our 3rd refurbished phone.
If anyone comes up with a solution please let me know. I am going to play around for the next couple of days and see what I can come up with....
Thanks
Ed & Donna aka gramme
Like I said, they'd no solution other than flashing a new rom, be it stock or custom. I choose custom and learned I'd never depend on AT&T or Samsung again.

Thanks, I used odin2oneclick and it put android 2.1 update 1 on the phone. Then I didn't have a clue how to get android 2.2 on the phone so I called samsung and they walked me through using kies mini. Now working and have it rooted once again.
Thanks again

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
I've been using the Facebook App from Microsoft Marketplace for a long while now, we're talking a good 8 months or so.
A couple of weeks ago it just stopped working. It will open but it won't refresh any statuses or anything.
I have flashed my phone with the newest NRG Rom but it still doesn't update. To update it, I literally need to log out and then back in to Facebook.
Any advise, ideas or suggestions.....
Exactly the same problem here! Anybody a clue?
This problem / situation is bean mentioned several times now.
This problem is caused on some updates that Facebook have been done, and it caused problems on our device.
Solution: ???? waiting to it will be fixed we have seen simulative problem in the past with tweeter
Suggestion; us the the internet page. www. Facebook.com
Thread moved to Q&A.
I know that there was a problem with Twitter, but that's all sorted now.
Fingers crossed Facebook will pull their fingers out and get it sorted.
The strange thing is that if you log out and then log back in, it works again. But every time you load the application again, you have to log out and back in. Annoying but the closest thing to a solution.
Also what's the probability that it will get fixed with WP7S out so soon?
Its not looking too good.......
this problem is weeks old and hasnt even been mentioned in an official capacity afaik.....
Probably an MS conspiracy to have all the facebook junkies rushing to the store for a brand new wp7 handset.............

Oh that would be hilarious, for Facebook to update their site so WP7 is no longer compatible
New Facebook App available, but after update program doesn't start
It seems that the problem was fixed and a new version is available through Microsoft Marketplace. I've successfully installed it, but then it doesn't start. Error message just says "Facebook could not be started".
It installs not into \Windows, so there are still files from the old version (from the ROM) available. I suspect there is a conflict with these older files.
Any way to get this fixed?
Thanks

Thank you in advance.

Same problem with the same phone,i'm using cyanogenmod 7.1 though. Have you managed to solve the issue since then?
The problem solved itself after a few hours. I change FB app version, change ROM, but it did not help.
have the same issue on my sgs....any suggestions?
Also have this issue on SGS2, worked fine untill 2 days ago... now I constantly receive errors from the latter versions of the application. (Authentication failure, certificate missing, signature failure)
I've gone back to version 1.7.2 (Current is 1.8.1) by downloading it through Aptoide, although it rolls back on a few features... a few working features is better than lots of unworkable features!
Note: This seems to be account specific... I can login to other accounts using version 1.8.1, just not my own. (I have tried many other methods of getting the latest version to work with my account, even as far as slamming my phone through Odin a few times)
damn it my phone has been doing this all day ive tried everything.
I started having this problem since Monday. Apparently this bug for the Facebook app has been around for years but there has yet to be a fix. Seriously need a miracle right now. Anybody have any suggestions?
Reseting phone?
*288?
Has anybody heard of this?
I have also had this problem on my Inspire 4g running Blackout ICS Incredible v3.0.0. Has anyone found a solution yet, or is it a glitch embedded within the app itself?
been trying to get this to work for quit awhile know but failing i just starting using sun_dreams ics 4.0.4 sense 4.1 based one xl hk-run ive used all times of roms and never ran into this. Anybody seen this?
I have this issue also
At the moment another friend and myself are having the same problem, we live in China but we use a VPN that let us use Twitter, youtube and so on.
But during the last 2 weeks we have been getting this problem (I use a Motorola Razr and he has a SIII):
"Sorry, login Failed to reach Facebook servers. Please check your network connection or try again later"
Probably on Facebooks end. That site is plagued with problems on a daily basis. :/
Dear xda community,
I used to use Instagram on a daily base in order to follow a user's followers hoping they follow back. This has been working quite well, but all of a sudden Instagram started acting weird. Now, if I click a user's follower, it loads really long and loads a list of at least 2000.
Usually, there are 50 followers loaded at a time, at the moment it's 2000.
The other point is that it does not refresh anymore. There are still the followers of a few days ago while Instagram usually refreshes the list everytime you click it again.
It seems that it's a problem with the account. On another account, this issue is not occurring at all. But I also did not hit any limitations nor got any ban.
A user's followers list just won't refresh for me.
I tried with a hell lot of alternative Instagram browsers (including Instwogram & OGInsta+ released here) but nothing worked out so far.
Do you have any idea what could be wrong or what to try?
Thanks you all in advance and have a nice weekend
Did anyone experience the same problem yet?
Bump
I have got the same issue. I was wondering, did you change from business to personal account? I have tried deleting cache, uninstalling and reinstalling to no avail. When accessing my account on desktop there seems to be no problem so its isolated to iphone/android account access.

I have a personal account, never changed it though.
Well, I tried to contact Instagram support but they only have some kind of ticket system where you do not get any response better than 'thanks for making us aware'.
Let me know if you find out a work around, I am desperately trying out everything as well.
Is someone facing similar issues?
Problem still persisting, I cannot seem to find a work around.
