Hello everyone,
So far I have seen many people having off and on trouble with HTC Peep (Twitter tab in HTC Sense).
I wanted to create this to gather all the information and list a few different fixes that have worked for some people.
Specifically we are getting:
"There was a connection error while attempting to download tweets"
or
Issues actually entering the username and password.
Fixes so far:
Trying on only WiFi/3G (some people have it working on one and not the other)
Hard Reset (but sometimes only works for a couple of 'syncs')
Removing the login information from the registry
Making sure the Location settings are set
Using Dutty's 'Remove My Location' Tool
What have other people tried to get this working?
I found that using Dutty's tool worked, then it only worked on WiFi and now nothing again!

So setting the time correctly... can anyone define this? Syncing time with some server? I mean it's set to be the same as my PC time which syncs to time severs.

just need to adjust the time to the current time..and it will allows u to login without any problem.this way works for me.u can have a try on this.
It's making me mad! I have the latest dutty ROM (for topaz), tryed with other roms. It just says the same: error while connecting or after i login with wi-fi and then try with data connection it says network unavailable.
I installed duttys disable my location feature. Nothing...
Where in the registry are stored the login credetials an other settings? Do you have any idea what to try?
I tried to set up the clock correctly. It is correct (correct after what clock? ). Still nothing...
I found using the new EnergyROM on my Touch Pro2 works great. The Twitter engine was fixed up in the latest versions, works all the time now on 3G and WiFi.
I'm already using the latest version of manila 2.5 (19202525) but it just doesn't work. Did you do anything special? Like enabling my location or something...
I'm getting the same problem here on my HTC Topaz. Peep only connects through Wi-Fi and not through 3G. Is there a solution?
Kind regards,
Sander
I had the same problem.
I went under settings in manila and then Data services. Select the time sync one and turn off the Allow to use network value to update time.
Twitter was working and I turned the above on and twitter stops?
Anyhow the above worked for me. good luck
Background
Is it just me or is the TAB almost useless as the TEXT BOX for writing new PEEPS has black background? And when writing the text is blue so it almost impossible to see what you write....
Does any know of a solution?
I hope anyone can help me with the problems i am having with HTC Peep,
Some of the time it works fine while updating. other times i get a connection error.. but thats not the worst problem. i was wondering if anyone could help me find a register setting or tweak that would set a maximum limit to the amount of tweets in htc peep, the ammount of errors and loading time of the tab seems to increase when the ammount of tweets become more and more. for now the only solution i have found to speed it up again is hard reset and i dont like that if anyone could help me i would be really greatfull!

I've Already Fixed it...
Solved the problem...
Uncheck the Data services of twitter...
and then, check your Date and Time...
i tried to check the date is "My Locations" *i'm not input my city...
after that, i choose 12-Hours Time,Not 24-Hours Time...
i don't know which one the correct one...
but i changes that, after that my HTC PEEP came NORMALLY again....
to those of you who are still getting this error. mine error's where fixed after removing all of the auto disconnect data apps.. like wmlonglife
Have finally ditched Peep in favour of PockeTwit...
Today was the last straw. I had just installed a new Storage Card. Whether the problems with Peep stem from this or this was just coincidental I dont know.
It had been working fine for a month or so, until today.
But this is not the first time Peep has stopped working.
It gives me a combination of error connecting and incorrect username or password consistently.
In the past I was able to get it working by logging in with a new twitter account. Not this time though.
I have also tried:
- deleting all registry account settings for twitter - even deleted the registry keys in desperation and re-imported them.
- renewing the connection database.
- Checking the location and time settings.
All to no avail.
PockeTwit works perfectly - all the time, every time.
So I have removed the Peep Tab from the Sense UI until an update or new ROM comes out fixing the silly thing....
Life is too short to stuff around with this sort of bad programming.
There are too many tabs the sense UI in any case.
HTC Twitter login problem - what worked for me
I have a Sprint Rhodium with WM.6.5. My twitter tab kept giving me an incorrect login info message, even after several soft resets. I changed my password online, removed Twitter home tab, then replaced it after a soft reset. I was then able to login. I was very relieved I didn't have to hard reset or try registry changes.
I hope this works for someone else!
HTC Peep "All Tweets" Tab
Hello all,
I was wondering if anyone has been having the following problem with HTC Peep. IT loads fine, in the first screen I can read all my latest tweets. However, when I want to reply or press "All Tweets" the app goes to the next page and then freezes. This sometimes causes the whole telephone to hang and requires a soft reset. If I'm quick enough, then I can get out of the "All Tweets" screen and recover back to Sense.
Does this sound familiar to anyone? Perhaps I just need to hard reset? Who can give me any handy tips? Thanks in advance!
The solution
Just put your proxyserver off, and Twitter wil work again.
"All Tweets" direct link?
Hi,
I am searching mad for o way to direct link the "All Tweets" button from a shortcut. So far i figured out that "All Tweets" is a manila subpage so the link should look like
"\windows\manila.exe --switchtopage twitter.page.something".
Can someone help me make this work?
I started having a problem with my twitter on my HD2. When i try to update, an error message comes up saying " The account was forbidden to access the twitter server!?". Has anyone had this problem before?

I am having a problem with ActiveSync on my phone an Orange M700 running the HTC P3600 ROM. It was working with no problems until a few weeks ago when it stopped syncing. I have tested the laptop with another PPC and ActiveSync notices it straight away.
I have installed ActiveSync 4.5 to no avail so I returned to 4.2 and still nothing. I deleted all partnerships in both the phone and the laptop and when I plugged it back in the Windows saw the device as there was a pop up bubble in the bottom right corner but ActiveSync never kicked in.
I have had a look at the ActiveSync settings in the M700 but everything looks fine to me.
I have also been having problems with my 3G connection not connecting and doing the regular syncs it normally does e.g. my personal mail every 5 mins, my yahoo mail every hour and the weather every 2 hours. The only thing that has changed in this time is that I installed Fring, I can't imagine its related but I uninstalled Fring just in case but still no luck.
Anyone got any ideas how to fix it as I have some new appointments (I'm not sure which ones) in my PDA which I want to get synced before messing around with hard resets etc.
Thanks
Did you delete any notifications of any kind, usually replog files? If YES, then you just deleted your notification to activate Active Sync on your computer. You can solve that easily by returning the file. READ this for the solution: http://www.cs.pitt.edu/~jmisurda/ppc/blog/index.php?entry=entry051203-201515

I don't think I did that but I tried the file anyway, still no joy. I think my phone is also vibrating when I plug it into the PC now, very strange.

Have you ever used Check Notifications? It is a free software to clear away JUNK notifications.
Link: http://www.scarybearsoftware.com/cn_overview.html
Sometimes, our PPC just creates duplicates of certain Notifications that can cause conflicts with some softwares. Maybe this is what is happening in your device. You can try and download Check Notifications, even though it says it is only compatible with WM 2003, I use it for my HTC Universal (WM5). Just go to Check Notifications settings and tick the 3 choices, run it and CLEAR those pesky bugs.

Right I ticked the three boxes and cleared the issues but still nothing
Normally I'd just hard reset but I am worried about losing appointments I've forgotten I have made since my last sync.

I don't know what else to suggest.
If you do decide to HARD RESET, take a look at this FREE BABKUP program for contacts and calendar events: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=299705&highlight=backup
I hate doing hard resets myself, that is why I have SPB Backup configured to do automatic backups everyday at 5AM.
Good Luck...

Thanks for your help.
I'm not sure how I am going to progress this. My major issue is that we use GroupWise at work with a third party app to allow the PocketPCs to sync with it. When you set it up it blanks the device before you can do anything, if I wait and import everything after this it usually can't cope with the levels of changes and kills the system on the server.
Oh joy, why wasn't someone looking at the "bigger picture" when we choose an e-mail system.....
So far with Custel 1.0/2.0 and XDA live 1.1/1.2 Inesoft Address Book Caller ID becomes disabled, and the entire program becomes essentially useless after installing and soft resetting. Any reason the roms are suppressing this program? Fixes?
Is it a compatibility issue or a simple registry fix?

Its running fine on Dutty's latest verison
Try 2.0 since it is the latest version. It's free if you bought after July 2006.
I am using 2.0. And I even tried the 2.1 Beta.
Its odd, I put the original ATT Tilt Rom back on it, and it just keeps getting disabled. Is there any fix?
I even tried a hard reset and installing Inesoft Address Book 2.0 by itself then resetting. Then it just gets disabled and my bottom launch tray disappears.

I just tried it on Dutty's Version. After 2 soft resets it just completely stopped working! How can i fix this
First, let's verify it is the address book. I have been usin git for along tie and it works FINE. I have read reports that there is a hacked version (warez) floating around that the caller ID does not work.
I'd contact Inesoft directly for support.
I have contacted Inesoft. Still awaiting a response. I've only had this problem with the Tilt/Kaiser. It worked fine until doing some soft resets and then PRESTO it was gone. And yes I am using a legit version.
It seems as if my bottom launch tray (where the small inesoft address book icon is) gets completely disabled, and consequently disables inesoft. The program doesn't disappear right away. It disappears probably over an entire day after multiple soft resets.
So, just to clarify....
It works find after a soft reset, but after an entire days of multiple soft resets it does not work?
After 1 soft reset it still works?
After 2 soft resets it still works?
But after 3-4-5 it dosent work any more?
Everything else works after these resets? Like it being the default contacts; or the default history manager, etc?
I have the issue happenning with Dutys Rom#5. Caller ID doesn't stay enabled and every so often the address book comes up blank. I use it for the address book shortcuts.

There is no "exact" amount of resets but eventually it just completely gets shut out. The only thing it can do after it shuts down is just edit my contacts and add photos to names etc. But as for Caller ID and Call history functions etc, it just keeps getting disabled no matter how many times i try to re-enable it.
xda live 1.2
Works fine on xda live 1.2...actually have used it on all variants of xda live.

Does anyone know how to change the skin of the contacts menu in inesoft address book?!? I have posted so many questions on different blogs and haven't gotten one answer.

Hi...to some of the more experienced hands out there. I have a problem with Microsoft Active sync 4.5.
I introduced new categories for my contacts in Outlook 2007. these copied fine, but what happens is...i get an error message saying synchronization cannot be completed. at this time, when i sync using the active sync application on my vox, it works and synchronises fine....all this after i disabled advanced network functionality.
the above process takes nearly 10mins! that too, after i manually press the sync button on my mobile! is there any way to solve this problem?
also, i wish to know if there is anyway one can add more fields to the phones contact book. i added and entered data in new fields in outlook 2007, but this wasnt transmitted to my mobile.......we have useless entries like pager, radio ( what the hell is that!! ) and so on, but not a single place where one can enter an extra mobile no. for instance!!!
can any one help? tried a lot of fora, but no one seems to have any proper solution for this one!
a new challenge for xda developers forum! thanx in advance, its maddening doing this sync manually every bloody time!
Try deleting the device from activesync while device is disconnected and then adding it again by reconnecting.
Tried but no result!
thank u but i tried all the obvious solutions.....else i wouldnt have started this post. all this works only with advanced network functionality off, mind u, and it takes ages!

I absolutely love that Dutty's Task Manager works on the Leo, and it has brightened my day.
However, since installing my Twitter client won't connect. I've heard others have this problem too.
I'm on a dutch (0413) HD2, running the stock ROM (1.43.404.1 [70124] NLD), Manila v2.5.19202525.0
I've checked with only GPRS and with HSDPA active, and in both circumstances the Twiitter-app not only can't register, it doesn't even make the phone connect to data (the taskbar does not show a connection being made) so it's not my internetconnection that's at fault, the Twitter app doesn't even try to connect to the 'net anymore.
Anyone with a good idea what might be the cause of this?
I had a similar problem yesterday and I never even installed the Task manager. I had simply logged out of my Twitter account (don't remember why I did that) and couldn't log in again. It said my password or account name were wrong (they weren't).
Try logging into a different Twitter account (create a new one if you need to) and then into your own again, that worked for me.

See, mine just tells me the network is unavailable... without ever trying to connect.
If I turn off the dataconnection before trying a Twitter update, it never reconnects when it says it's updating... and then tells me the network is unavailable.
In other words, the Twitter app doesn't know how to find the internet connection anymore.

did you ever find a solution to this?
i have the same problem but with google map
i cant login
it say login in ....... and nothing happen
i try different version but no lack
I also have the same problem, but mine started to happen after I installed Comm Manager Pro. Can someone confirm that logging into a different account helps? In my case, it doesnt say the login or password is incorrect and it doesn't argue about the internet connection. It just doesn't update and doesnt show any tweets on the list
To me two accounts helped. (Comm manager and task manager installed).
However I still see as a bug that Peep, Location/Weather does not update correctly. Hope new rom 2.x will fix it.

is anyone able to get the the google keyboard dictionary sync on s6? I can't seem to get it to choose which email to sync it with. (yes i have tried searching via google and the search thread here on xda).
please advise?
Hi mate,
I had the same issue. I did a lot of research on the web but I didn't find the source of the problem. However, if found a way that fixed it (at least for me). Try switching on/off the sync for a couple of times in a row without exiting the menu. After around 5 on/off cycles, a new windows appeared on my S6, informing me that google keyboard will save inputs and so on... after that, I could pick my @gmail account and set it up for sync.
Hope this helps.
All the best!
