Anyone else having problems with facebook staying connected on Hero?
It connects for a few seconds than logs out - this is one of the huge benefits to hero for me...
anyone else?
Um...which hero rom are you using? There are only about 50-100 of them floating around. You're gonna have to be a little more specific. Or is it with all of them you are having the problem?
Right now, MightyMax 1.9.1 - had same problem with MoDaCo 2.2 and Jac 2.2
That's odd. Only recent hero rom I tried was Drizzy's final, and it had no problems with it. Neither have any of the ones I was using a couple months ago. Only thing that ever gave problems was twitter. Did it bring you to the fb app permissions page like it's supposed to upon first launch? The one that asks if you want to grant the htc fb app access. Other than that I would suggest reporting the bug in the rom thread.
Try the noob HerVER's rom...Its impressive and you won't see problems with facebook

Nope, never brought to a permissions page. Is there a way to get to this?

Is there any tmobile customer who actually likes this new market layout? Tmobile has replaced the "downloads" button with a "tmobile recommended apps" button. Not only is that self-righteous and gay, but all the apps there seem completely random besides the tmobile apps. Wtf.
Is there a way to push a non-tmobile version of market? Im not sure, but i dont think this is the new version 1.71. Mine still shows as 1.66. If anyone has 1.71 please post it here. Id rather have an updated market app than this gay ass layout change. Thanks.
I have v1.66 as well, and no I do not like the market.
I have never liked the market.
Category layouts are dumb.
People search the market in 3 ways.
They either know exactly what they want... Search Program Name
They know the type of thing they want... Search "program does this.."
Or they go window shopping. Scroll, scroll, scroll, scroll...etc
The F*ing scrolling is driving me crazy! By scrolling through a huge list, I never remember where I was, and I have to constantly start over.
I want to be able to see what apps were uploaded each day. That way I can search a given day and know that there are no apps that I like for that time period.
Hmm what did the Dev's throw out yesterday....Oh cool! aw crap. Neat!
I stopped looking at their "recommendations" a long time ago.
I don't care what they think I might want. I sure as hell don't want My Account which has been listed as a #1 app since it came out.
For more experienced users..The F*ing program doesn't do anything that logging into your account, or using one of 20 other programs doesn't already do. Like I need ANOTHER battery monitor!
I just found a market app that might be better. Called My Market by Chris Hager- allows multiple filters, recommendations based on users comments, and you can bookmark items. Let you know how it goes.
OK this is one of those programs that you find once in a while that are the "OMG Why isn't this standard." type of thing.
It does have a little problem staying connected to the market server when I am using it, but....
I can scroll through all the apps in the market, bookmarking any apps that look interesting, and "Removing" ones that are not. (removing just hides them in a folder called "Removed")
I can mark an app as "recommended", not star'd like the market, but just a flag saying that I liked the program.
I can also email the market link for an app to someone from inside the program.
You do have to open the market to DL though which is kinda annoying, but the fact I can sort through stuff makes it totally worth it.
Yea i gotta say mymarket is pretty cool. Only thing that bugs me is that it looks like the old market from 1.1. Thanks for the suggestion.
So 1.71 is the market from 2.0?
I also noticed that apps I have installed originally from the market and later uninstalled due to a wipe or whatever. Then reinstalled from SdCard are now showing up as updates available. Would of been ok, however I have two apps I simply do not want to update and its annoying the heck out of me because I now have to look at them everytime I goto the market.
How did this Market update happen? I don't remember updating it or was it forced or a forced layout change or something?
Looks like you can go into Settings > Manage Applications > Market
Uninstall Market upgrade. Of course how long before that comes back.
I think this is the market you guys are talking about.
http://www.mymarket.cc/
I noticed in the /data/data/ folder there is two listings for the market. One being an upgrade and one being the regular.

Apparently it takes less than a day to come back. I uninstalled the T-market yesterday morning before work and it was back before the end of my work day. This kind of sucks. All their "update" did was make me have to use the physical menu button to check my downloads for updates. More time wasted and more wear on my menu button. Thanks T-Mobile.
I went into /system/apps and deleted the vending updater program. Also uninstalled the "update" to the market. Not having any trouble now. Was having a ton of trouble with stuff not install after downloading. The update hasn't come back yet either, so so far so good.
After my uninstall I haven't seen it come back as of yet.
Yeah the market app is kinda screwy lately. Literally last night before I went to sleep I was using it to download something.
I wake up today in the morning and it's completely gone I have never had that happen before.
Lets see if it comes back on its own through out the day hehe.
Honestly I really hope it's my rom doing something screwy though cause I would hate knowing that they can take off an app off my phone when ever they want just like that. WTF you know.

How did you uninstall the update? I just went to settings>applications>manage applications>Market--uninstall updates. I may try Gilliland12's method but I don't know what else that method may effect.
sxfx:
Many people seem to be having problems with the market on Cyanogen's latest. I always wipe and do a full install and I don't use a2sd, compcache or swap and I've had few to no problems with his ROM's (just some random reboots on one of the older versions).

Yeah Iv been using Cyan for as long as I can remember. I do use a2sd, and some swap nothing major.
But I don't seem to have 99% of the problems everyone else is having heh.
Just a glitch here or there but nothing I cant really figure out.
This market thing really just happened recently when tmo started screwing with it. I guess we will see what happens in the next few days .
Supposedly there is a really nice updated coming from Cyan sometime soon. ..
Hey guys!
I'm running the new froyo (rel:11 themed) and I am still having the same problem I have always had with android. On a real android phone one would go to settings> accounts and sync> add account> facebook. This would add my facebook contacts and should technically sync the profile pictures of my current contacts. The problem is when I click on "facebook", it just kicks me back to the main accounts and sync page. I really just want to update my current contacts with their current facebook pics. I know there are apps for it, but they are all pretty bad. Plus I should be able to just do it on my phone without any other apps. Let me know what the deal is and if you guys have have any suggestions.
Thanks
no one knows why?
people probably know why, they have probably answered it atleast a few times
the forum search is a beautiful thing.
if its anything like it was in eclair for some reason facebook only likes to sync with a certain phone (i think its the Dream). something needs to be changed for it to work K_K did this in his eclair build i dont think anybody has in Froyo yet
FYI
This may have already been posted but the new facebook app in the market will sync correctly with Incubus26Jc's Super FroYo 2.2.
Can't remember where, but I know I saw it in the XDA Developers forums.
Risk about sync with facebook is your contact database gets huge.
Some people have reported sizes of 50+MB for contacts, because of pictures, etc.
You might not want to do that... just stick with the google contacts.
i notice that it runs without any problems in cyanogen, but fresh froyo is still missing this feature, even after installing latest facebook 1.3.2! you can select adding a facebook account, but nothing will happen. and the possibility to sync after installing facebook and setting it up, is missing too. any ideas anyone?
already checked the forum and searches... no solution helped (clearing app-cache,e.g.)

Get the Google apps zip in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=722801
Then try adding the GooglePartnerSetup.apk to the install archive (use 7-zip) and reinstall.
No idea if it works but Fresh Froyo doesn't have all the Google Apps apk's unlike the CyanogenMod port and that one sounds like it could have something to do with it.
...starting! will post results...
used the latest un-odexed fresh froyo and added googlepartnersetup.apk... didnt do the trick. next step: adding all the google apps 2 see, if there is anything working then.
not working either... so its not depending on one of googles apks from that package.
Any luck with this? Having the same problem.
have you got the latest Facebook app from the market. It was suppose to fix the issue
yep, latest facebook doent do the trick either... no solution found yet!
Just loaded this on to my phone after using NFX for a while. Everything is great except I am having a couple of issues with apps. I have ESPN scorecenter which force closes as it tries to open. Foursquare will open but when I try to sign in it says that their servers are down, but this has a been three days now. Does anyone else either have these problems or not have these problems or have an idea of what could be wrong?
Also I was wanting to use magic smoke as a live wallpaper but it force closes every time it tries to load. Any suggestions here?
Thanks for the help
EDIT - Running Cyanogen 6.1
I don't know if you found this yesterday, but over in impaler's q+a thread there was talk about espn. Apparently they (espn) broke the version you had and put out an update, which fixed the issue for most people, I don't use those apps personally, but if you haven't updated through the market yet, go do it, it should fix your issue.

Yup, newest update fixed the FC issue with Scorecenter. Don't know about Foursquare, but Scorecenter is fixed for sure.
I have searched everywhere but can't find anything,
I would love to use the stock calendar app on doc's rom or any other rom for that matter. But i'm not able to find anything that works.
Does anyone know if this is even possible?
I've read that if you use the aosp mail app, the camera fc's.
But nothing about the calendar app.
I would love to know a bit more, I can't imagine it's that difficult.
There is a thread for stock eclair apps and I remember using them once, they seemed to work I recall.
If anyone knows a way I would love to know, I'm getting pretty frustrated with samsungs aproach to the calendar

Any idea how to install aosp calendar?
It's in the market.
You'll have to uninstall the Samsung one first, then reboot.
Sent from my Captivate.
No. The AOSP calendar is NOT in the Market.
I have the same question: how to get a working AOSP calendar in Froyo???
But in this strange sgs community, everybody seems to love so much the TouchWizz Calendar!
Bllblb. It's ugly, not practical, and you cannot read the events titles directly from the week view.
I succeeded installing the Calendar from a CM6.1 Nexus1 Rom. But not the Calendar sync. So it works, but you cannot choose wich calendar to hide.
So. I'm not responsible for nothing, but you can try what I have done.
Download the rom here http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/files/file/187-update-cm-611-n1-signedzip/
Extract from system/app/calendar.apk
-> Or instead of 1. et 2. you can just download from here http://dl.dropbox.com/u/18608283/Calendar.apk
On your sgs, use Root Explorer (or ADB if you know how). Delete (make backup first) TWcalendar.apk in system/app/ in your device.
Push the calendar.apk from the rom into system/app/ in your device.
Install it.
Reboot.
You're done. As I have said, the app works, but it Force Closes whenever you try to get in menu/more/calendars.
If somebody have an idea to get he whole thing working... It'd be great!

I don't think this is true either, where did you get this info from may I ask?
Thanks Judim but I have also tried that, had the same problem.
I'm using "Touch Calendar Free" at the moment, it's not as good as google's but still beats the living sh** out of samsungs...
Ah well if this thread bumps we'll just have to wait for CM7 to arrive or buy a Nexus S.
The first way is a bit cheaper though
Try also Business Calendar Beta from the Market. It could be a replacement waiting for a CM7.
I see you're also coming from the Hero... Small device but great CM roms
Cheers!
Here is an AOSP calendar app that I'm using on my Vibrant. It does have the fc issue when selecting more calendars, but does not have the dark bar at the top blocking week one of the month. It does have a skewed transparency up there, but its a mere annoyance and won't affect anything. Push to system/app. Oh the icon is ginger-green to match my rom, but thats all that I changed with the apk.
Ever since upgrading to KK4 (Fusion XII) I have noticed a lot of problems with my messaging app. Lots of force closing without any force close notification, while replying to messages the repy message I am creating vanishes, and also when opening messaging usually it takes a while for contact names to show instead of their number.
I have been using the Gingerbread keyboard since upgrading. Happens on all kernles that I have used so far, which are, the kernel that comes with Fusion XII, Corn, and Samurai.
Is this a general KK4 issue, or more to do with the ROM I'm using?
I have seen a post about this somewhere, but never remember seeing any response to it. Also couldn't find it again, or I would've mentioned it on that thread.
Happens to me all the time. Im on serenity

Got fed up with the messaging issue so much that I went back a few builds, and using one of my favorites. I am now currently running crt60's Legend KJ1, with no tweaks, and no problems with messaging at all.
Still no idea what was causing the problems?
