As for me, I've fixed my problem.))) So, i go to Facebook settings page on my PC and change my password, after submit my new data, FB ask me to sign-off from all my mobile applications and I say YES. After that I've delete FB acc from my HTC One and add it again with new password... miracle! Now all my data - channel, calendar and contacts are syncronizing, BlinkFeed works. I'm happy now.
Try it, and Good Luck!

Hi guys,
I just got my HTC One today. I got big trouble with getting Facebook to work with Sense / Blinkfeed. At the first setup I added my Facebook account and the Facebook app works just fine. But I got a message in the notification bar, that says there is a problem with Facebook authentification. When I click on this message a Facebook page appears with the text "You have already authorized HTC Sense". I checked my privacy settings at Facebook and there is HTC Sense listed. But when I click on it, there is a error message "The application requested an invalid permission: whitelisted_offline_access". I already deleted HTC Sense at Facebook privacy settings and granted the permissions via phone again with no luck.
Do guys have any other advice for me? Thanks in advance.
Things I also tried yet: deleted data + cache from Facebook app on the phone. Reinstalled Facebook app on the phone. Deleted and reentered Facebook account at the phone.

I got exactly the same thing and tried quite a few delete/re-add combinations (on facebook site as well as phone). I came to the conclusion that its an issue with the Facebook servers as I am getting the whitelist error with other apps as well and I also got authentication problems with Trillian (as I had deleted it in Facebook and re-added it).
Then a day or so after I gave up, I got the error msg on the phone clicked OK and boom it worked and has been fine since.
FYI the whitelist errors I am still getting for Sense, MS Live and Spotify...

Hi schmoo, thanks for your reply. Seems that this problem is a bit extraordinary.
I figured out, that the problem only exists in combination with my particular Facebook account. I tried another account (fresh registered), which worked just fine. I don't know where the problem is with my account. I checked the blocking list also, no entry.

I'm having the "same" problem with my Droid DNA with the Sense 5 rom (with blinkfeed).
On Facebook there's the HTC Sense listed, but with no errors, unlike niehof.
I tried several combinations. Uninstalled and reinstalled Facebook app. Disabled platform apps entirely and reenabled on Facebook. Deauthorized HTC Sense and authorized it again via phone. Tried a few settings on Facebook... Switched to another ROM. Remove all Facebook related apk's ("Facebook for HTC Sense" as well) and installed them again.
Same notification error, and nothing about Facebook on my blinkeed.
I was assuming it was a problem with the rom port to the Droid DNA. But there were no users reporting this problem over there... And now I found this thread... Perhaps it's my Facebook account?
Well.... I asked my cousin to login with his account... And... It WORKED flawlessly. Blinkfeed populated. No errors whatsoever....
So... I'm with you, niehof. MY account is the problem. I just don't know where!
I'll try some logcats... If I find anything, I'll update.
Well... I tried to mimic my cousin´s Facebook settings and still: His account works. Mine doesn't.
There IS a difference.
When both of us remove HTC Sense from our Facebook, and then try to add it again via phone notification, here's what happens:
My account:
Facebook dialogs: [HTC Sense]
HTC Sense would like to access yadda yadda yadda. [OK];
HTC Sense would like to manage your messages yadda yadda. [OK];
Error persists. Error notification and still no info on blinkfeed;
HTC Sense shows up on Facebook. Limited to "only me". (my settings for old versions of FB for Mobile is set to "Friends")
His:
No Facebook dialog whatsoever. Actually... It kinda pops up, but doesn't ask anything and vanishes;
Blinkfeed works!
HTC Sense shows up on Facebook. Set to "Friends". (Settings for old versions of FB for Mobile is set to "Friends")
What gives? I really tried to mimic every setting.
His account just gives HTC Sense ACCESS without asking! And works!
Mine asks for permission. I accept both request. And it doesn´t work.
I'm at a loss :|
Changed my password. Set my language to English (to match his)... Nothing... Oh... And on Facebook it reads that the last time HTC Sense accessed my account was on March 18th! (Probably with my late HTC one X). This upon removing all HTC Sense access over and over. That "Last Accessed" on March 18th persists...
On his account, evidently, it reads "today".
Thanks for investigating this issue that deeply. I completed most of the steps also with no success. I'm actually at the same situation like you. The error at Facebook with "wrong permission" I reported at the opening post is gone now.
If I tap on the authorisation problem notification now, the Facebook app appears for a moment and closes it right now.
Contacted HTC Support in Germany already, but surprisingly they had no clue.

I've got the exact same issue - my account fails yet my partner's works. HTC UK have been useless, just suggested that I "look at facebook settings".
One thing I've thought of is that my facebook account is part of the developer programme, whilst my other half's is not. Any of you guys in the same boat?
My account is not a part of the development program.

Well... My account IS part of the developer program. To bad Niehof's isn't... That would narrow it down :|
My cousin's account isn't part of it and it works... Darn... I thought we'd have nailed it :|
I'm running out of things that could be causing it. I've trawled through loads of previous forum posts and made the changes that had caused problems previously (Changed email address to one without a hyphen, added locations to jobs etc).
Just finished doing a side by side comparison of all facebook settings with my partner's account and they are exactly the same. Spent about 20 hours working on this since getting phone on Thursday and getting close to giving up and returning the phone
Well... Created a fresh account and added my gf as a friend (to test blinkfeed content).
Same deal: HTC Sense gets added to the FB account with just a popup. No questions ("HTC Sense would like to..." OK CANCEL).
Everything works, no questions asked (aside from the brief FB screen that pops up and is dismissed automatically)
I removed HTC Sense from the account. Removed FB account from phone. Joined the Developer Program.
Readded account. Same deal. No questions... HTC Sense gets added to FB, and everything works.
So... Developer Program doesn't seem to be the problem.
That sucks :|
I'm in Brazil... We don't even have HTC officialy over here... So I'm stuck with what I find on the forums... If you guys find anything... Please do tell :|
Thanks for checking that one out.
Most frustrating thing is I don't know how to get the details of the authorisation error. If we could see those we might be able to deduce the source of the issue and could approach facebook for solutions.
Sucks that you don't have HTC to talk to, but they haven't been that useful so far!
Well... I was getting an unknow auth token, or auth token not found constantly on my logcat. Before I began to try and find the error.
Now I'm just getting this loop:
D/Facebook_Session(25335): getAccount
D/Facebook_Session(25335): getAccount enter lock
D/Facebook_Session(25335): queryAccount
D/Facebook_Session(25335): queryAccount enter lock

W/System.err(25335): at com.htc.socialnetwork.facebook.SocialNetworkService$FacebookInterface.getPeople(SocialNetworkService.java:90)
There's that exception... On "ExtendToken.java". I even got FacebookEngine.apk out of the phone, and used apktool to get to that code... I don't want to get very technical... But I couldn't debug it through Eclipse... And that error message isn't enough for me :|
When I click the notification, there's the facebook popup, and logcat reads:
D/FacebookSSO(29224): call Proxy login
I/ActivityManager(576): START {cmp=com.facebook.katana/.ProxyAuth (has extras) u=0} from pid 29224
D/FacebookUtils(29224): showNotAuthorizedNTF

D/FacebookSSO(29224): authorizeCount = 1
D/FacebookSSO(29224): Got token, expire time:0
So... Apparently the token is there... And is authorized...
And then we're back to that loop... and exception on com.htc.socialnetwork.facebook.method.ExtendToken.checkNecessaryToStart
Aaaand... When I check the last time HTC Sense accessed my FB account... It still reads March 18th... :| So HTC Sense isn't getting very far :|
---------- Post added at 04:47 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:37 PM ----------
Well... I got my HTC One X (mic and vibrator aren't working) to try and authorize HTC Sense through there... That was the phone that accessed FB on March 18th.
Guess what? SAME error! Same notification! Upon clicking the notification... Same accept dialogs. Same error...
So... Definitely it's on the FB side of things... HTC Sense never once gave me that notifcation on my One X (It ran Sense 4 and it's running Sense 4+... Both worked....)
Nice. Something changed... Apparently it isn't Sense 5's fault, necessarily. Sense 4+ is presenting the same error :| Bummer.
I've sent it on to HTC to see if they can make head or tail of it
Beyond my level of debugging and the all knowing google has no similar codes being thrown up
Got to love errors that don't show any error codes. If you can find the token id in there, could try using some of the facebook api tools to clear it and see if that clears the log jam

Well after owning the s3 and my partner the iphone 4s we were both excited about the htc one after the disappointing s4 reveal. Anyway we both bought a HTC one and when we got it home proceeded with syncing twitter and Facebook. Hers worked flawlessly but mine came up with an annoying authentication error.
I like like you tried to mimic my partners settings exactly and there is one slight difference. When my HTC sense links to fbook it says only me where as hers is automatically set to friends. I change it on my laptop to friends and still no joy. I have not updated the fbook app thinking this was the issue but this made no difference at all. I wanted to delete the fbook app but you can't on this phone again bloody annoying as I thought maybe re downloading it would help.
I was at a loss and took my phone back to the shop. They promptly replaced it and again I have the same issue. The shop says its a Facebook issue which I agree with but somewhere there is a conflict but I just do not know where.
I would love someone to come up with a solution because otherwise I will have to get rid and go for the s4,

HTC are proving nigh on useless regarding this, just suggesting them same old things again and again. I sent the debug info that phenome pulled up and I was rewarded with:
Clear Data from HTC Sense: Settings - Apps - All - Scroll Down To HTC Sense - Tap clear Data
Clear Data From Facebook: Settings - Apps - All - Scroll Down To Facebook - Tap clear Data
Clear Data From Friend stream: Settings - Apps - All - Scroll Down To Friend Stream - Tap clear Data
Check if you can access the Facebook via Mobile Browser
Please add Facebook on Mobile data if does not work then Please try to add on WiFi.
Please check the Facebook Privacy Settings ( Please Check settings for new device Required Authentication Code)

Tried them. On Mobile Data. Had to recustomize my home, since they told to wipe HTC Sense data. I knew it would happen, but since blinkfeed is deeply integrated... I thought I'd give it a try...
Same error
My latest attempt:
1) Remove HTC Sense from FB after removing account from phone and clearing all data
2) Full factory reset inc all data inc photos, music etc
3) Add FB account first - didn't add Google, Twitter etc
4) Respond to authorise prompt
Result...... Fail!!!

Unrevoked 3 Rooting Issues with my Droid Incredible.
I know it says to not post problems here but I am in desperate need of a solution...please help.
The company I work for uses Microsoft Exchange Server for our Email Service and before I rooted my Droid Incredible I was able to use the Exchange Activesync service on my phone to sync with my work's email without a problem.
Now that I rooted my phone I receive an error telling me I am unable to connect to the exchange server. I have already attempted to use "K-9 Email Client" and "Lockpicker" to see if I could connect. No luck... I believe the issue is with a missing certificate but I am not sure. I have already contacted my IT Department at my work which ended up being useless cause they are unaware of how to locate the certificate for our email service.
Anyways if anyone could shed some light on this please do...Thank you!
Also Facebook does not sync contacts, the live feed works fine.
I don't really mind this cause I'm using "FB Sync" to get my friends pictures but I do miss having all of Facebook contacts shown in my Contacts List.

I have just rooted my phone to Gingerbread, and I just LOVE it. I was able to set up the gmail accounts easily, so I have two separate gmail "labels" on my phone, each one for a different gmail account. I still cannot get the message count to show up on my notification bar, however, but that's not the reason for this post.
I am trying to do the same thing for my yahoo accounts (I have two of them). Yes, I can download the yahoo widget/app and that puts yahoo pretty much live on my phone - but I'm not looking for that. I'm looking for the shortcuts, like Gmail, so I can click on them and it takes me to a brief list of emails etc. I don't want to have full access to yahoo on my phone, but just the shortcuts.
When I try to set it up, this is what I do:
1) put a shortcut to the Email icon on my screen and name it.
2) When I try to configure it, I put my yahoo user name (xxx at yahoo.com) in and password
3) the message that comes up is "Mailbox access is not supported for some times of yahoo mail accounts" etc. I click on OK
4) it tells me setup could not finish as there is an incorrect username or password. I am 10000% certain I enter the correct name and password.
5) if I try a different yahoo email account, I get the same error message, plus (530 Access Denied: need SMTP privileges to access this server).
I used to have yahoo email shortcuts on my phone before I rooted - and they were great. I had two icons, and the message count showed up in my notification bar. When I rooted first (to I guess AOSP 9.9.2, before gingerbread), I could get the yahoo mail icons to work, no problem. I was not able to add an account in the "accounts and sync" - that only offers me "google" or "corporate" (which I guess is exchange). It's only with gingerbread i am having this problem.
I am VERY basic when it comes to using the phone, so if anyone responds, please pretend I'm about four years old, so please explain in basic language what I need to do. Anything complicated, and I might not follow (sorry). Still a newbie.
Thank you everyone.
This has been a problem for me on some roms too. Including aospCMod, some will let you set up a yahoo account and others will not. I first noticed this when I switched from cm6 to aospmod awhile back. Cm6 would let me sign in to a yahoo account but aosp would not. Then about 2 updates later on aospmod, I could all of a sudden sign in.
So this leads me to believe its an internal setting that the dev can modify to fix this. What it is idk, and when it'll come for or gingerbread roms idk, but take comfort in knowing your not the only one who has come across this.
Its kind of weird really, hopefully someone else knows why this happens out how to fix it.

Try using K9 mail, it is free in the market and much better than Yahoo mail app. I am sure you will be able to get emails and such, but not sure how much it will help with the other widget type problems.

Make sure you make it an imap account, security set to none, port should change to 143. If that doesn't get it let me know. Try auto setup too. I just deleted mine and started over and it took that way.

Yahoo doesn't work any more :-(
Strange. yesterday, I set it up and it worked like a charm - IMAP and smtp, changed the server settings (did it all manually) - worked very well yesterday and today was working just fine. Hadn't checked my emails for a few hours though - just tried - and it tells now incorrect user name or password. I deleted it and tried to add the yahoo account again - first it tells me unable to open connection to server. Tried again (making sure all settings were correct) and it just says incorrect username or password.
Under IMAP server I have imap.mail.yahoo.com, port 143, security type none - exactly like I had it yesterday and this morning, and it doesn't work. incorrect username or password.
I haven't changed a THING with my phone - not a single thing - or downloaded any new apps - so I'm mystified. Thoughts anyone?
Thank you

I was just gonna say the same thing.
I finally got mine working when I saw this post in the gingerbread thread also.
Sorry. Like I said, my phone doesn't like GB so I didn't realize it used different ports. This setup works on froyo and stock.

Hi, im ob darkys ROM 9.3.
Made a fresh clean Setup with factory reset.
The following steps were performed in many different ways:
I can't synch my fb contacts. Hi see the profile names with their information in my contacts, their photo also, but at the linked accounts field is the standard green phone contacts icon. Instead of Facebook its labeled with:unknown. But the missing blue fb icon (and the option to see the media and social fb tab in my contacts) there is another thing that is real annoying :
The profile pictures are shown in their profiles on my phone, but there's a blank image if they call me or in the message tab. Tried several different ways to solve the problem:
Import of an full contacts backup via Titan/myphoneexplorer/kids. Once in an empty phone without linked fb accs. Another time with facebook-filled contacts and than i tried to merge theprofiles..
Itried to use apps like acepic, which shows me an empty profile pic for the online and offline account (at this time both of them were definitely not empty) i tried the photo unlocked, which should give me the ability to use the stored fb profile pictures at my phone in other apps like goDialer... (so i thought it should also work for my message/caller id problem) but it said "coulnt connect to database... maybe busy. - over and over again.
I can set.up the fb contacts in 2 ways: about the account settings in my phone menu,or about the Facebook app. The first option gives me the option to select "add friends" (sorry,don't know the English title for the button. It is the one in the contacts menu, which let u choose your sns account in order to perform a buddy synchronization with your local contacts. But its kinda grey and if i select it, there pops an empty box with an ok button.
Probably you noticed that i tried several ways. I really have no more clues... i want this damn Facebook pictures in the message history and as a damn caller id. Iam from Germany... maybe that's important for some localisation things, i don't know.
PS. It worked before darkys
hey not that its much help but ive been having this issue also. also was on darkys
finally! Im not alone, thats nice to hear... googled like crazy but didnt find anything.
google seems to be a pain for finding these things.
im stuck on my own problem at the moment, i flashed a captivate firmware on my phone by mistake now wont boot :/ and i need my fone fast lol
Google removed that feature from.facebooks functionality about two weeks ago. Sorry guys!

yeah, is red it already. But it only affects the Nexus One. Dont know if u red my post: The sync option IS available! And it works. But the downloaded pictures were only shown in my contact book.
And because of the app "photo unlocker" which repeats in saying: Database is busy, try again - i think theres a problem somewhere, which blocks other applications from reading in the database....
i have installed js8 with a rom of the kitchen. It seems that the pic sync doesnt work the way it should.
Is there any PC manager to sync and manage contacts ? So that i can give them pictures and push them back to my sgs ?
Since day one I am not able to open my Friends-list in Facebook on my HTC One phone. When clicking on Friends I will get this message: Cannot retrieve friends list. Please try again later. [1/An unknown error occurred]
When checking Settings/Accounts & Sync in Android I will find an red refresh symbol of Facebook and this message: Sync is currently experiencing problems. It will be back shortly.
I did completely remove Facebook, People and Contacts on my tablet, phone and PC. But after re-installing everything, the problem remains.
I am not able to see my friends list and can not tag friends in a post. Also my contacts pictures in Android are not synced with the Facebook profile pictures.
What can I do to solve this annoying problem?

Well, I'm not sure if it is related, but I guess you should give it a try:

Thanks for helping xineis!
I tried those steps but that didn't help either.
I removed and/or cleared:
PC>Facebook>Account Settings>Apps>every single app
Phone>Accounts & Sync>Facebook
Phone>Accounts & Sync>Google
Phone>Apps>All>Contacts Storage
Phone>Apps>All>Facebook (also uninstalled updates)
Phone>Apps>All>Facebook for HTC Sense
Phone>Apps>All>Google Contacts Sync
Phone>Apps>All>HTC Sync
Phone>Apps>All>People
I also removed all contacts from Google contacts on my PC.
After these steps I open Facebook, and after filling in my credentials I choose Sync all. After a few minutes, when I check the Phone>Accounts & Sync>Facebook option I will find an exclamation mark right next to the refresh symbol within Facebook Contacts.
I tried all kinds of configuration but never have been able to solve this issue. Facebook will simply not sync the contacts.
More suggestions please!
Just tried a full wipe but that also does not change anything. Than I tried another Facebook account and that worked just fine. But when I tried mine, same problem remains. Must be an error on Facebook server.
How can I contact Facebook directly? The help function sucks and it seems they just ignore my messages

You even tried the "change password" step?
humm, I don't have the One (yet), but as any Android device it probably has that reset button (is that the "factory reset"?). I know it's a little harsh but it could (maybe) solve your problem...
Have you tried alternative facebook apps like Fast for Facebook and Haxsync? See if they have are having sync issues as well. Also, is your phone 'authorised' by Facebook? Long shot but worth trying

Ok I had the same problem for ages and one day realised that not all syncs were on - under phone settings yes but apps have individual settings that cannot be overridden by your phone... I'm sure you wouldve tried something so simple but just in case - go into your Facebook app on your phone, under the menu tab select 'app settings' and at the very very bottom of the list there is an option for how to sync contacts i.e. none, all or existing only ...
This is probably something that you've already tried but hey, I was silly enough to not realise!!
I'm sorry if this was not much help, aside from blissful simplicity I am unable to assist.
very useful info
Thanks so much for the useful info ^^^....had this same problem and thought it was the recent kitkat 4.4.2 update. Thanks...am sorted
My default email account works, but whenever I try to enter in a new email account, I get the following message:
"Unfortunately, email has stopped."
I am using Dynamic Kat Rom and have rooted the device using the standard instructions included for room, including installing TowelRoot, BusyBox, SafeStrap, etc.
I've searched everywhere for similar issues, and what I've read is that My Magazine has to be installed and running, which I do have, and I enabled it.
Here are the details on my phone:
SAMSUNG-SM-N900A
Android 4.4.2
Baseband N900AUCUCNC2
Hardware version REV0.3
I have to solve this or I'm going to have to go back to stock, which I hated because the bloatware had me looking at a loading icon for 5m every time I opened email. Ironically, the phone is massively faster now but I can't get my other gmail or my work exchange emails on it.
Minor side issue, I am seeing a green check mark in folders for app icons instead of the normal app icons (which I can see when I look at all apps, and it's random on the app - most have their normal icon, some do not).
So I've been working on this some and have successfully added new Google email accounts by adding Google accounts to the main account. Yay!
What I can not do is add a Microsoft Exchange email (my most important need). I get the error listed above about the email not working.
I can launch the My Magazine that was apparently an issue for others and the email app. It runs and gets information, so I don't think its that (unless there is something else I have to check relative to that, but I cant find the original thread discussion that others refer to sometimes in other threads).
Happy to report after monkeying around with every setting imaginable, I've got it to work now.
