I think this is a problem on their servers (Facebook) as I have the same issue on 5.0.7.1 and from what I have found it randomly fixes itself after a few days somehow in most cases. First time it happened to me as well.
The message that I get is something like "An error had occurred while fetching data [null]"
Do you get a similar message?
ye same problem for me as of last night ~10pm GMT
I also have this problem on CM 5.0.6
Probably facecbook issue.
I get that as well but i'm on CM507 and it was working!
Yup!
Same error code!
Thanks
I was about to reload some stuff
Doesn't seem to be wanting to fetch data. It's a facebook issue. I really do hope a new optimised app for froyo will be out soon, and bring more goodies to the table. This app is starting to feel old (not to mention the bugs)

Yeah, defiantly seems to be a server issue on their side, nothing much you can really do other then try touch.facebook.com and use that as a bookmark and place it on your home screen or something.
Same here and I'm on 5.0.6 and I also think it's a facebook issue.
Side note: This maybe old but anyone seen the option to 'download facebook for Nexus One' at the bottom of the mobile site? it just takes me to a blank page.
Yeah same issue as of a few hours ago on the stock leaked FroYo. Glad it's not just me, lol. The weird thing is the widget is updating!
good thing we have flash to access the real website
I think its a mobile facebook issue.. My gf's Cliq and a buddy's BB Curve have been having issues since last night as well as my N1
Yeah it must be a facebook issue. I am having the same error on my froyo nexus one, and my 2.1 htc hero. Very wierd that the widget still updates. Come one facebook, release a REAL facebook app for android.
Possibly because of the new privacy changes.
Whew - someone else having the same problems!
I installed Froyo last night and Facebook worked fine for the first few hours, but starting late last night it's been having the "Fetching" problems.
Go figure?
*sigh* I bet this has something to do with it:

I am also having this error. Very annoying!

Interesting.
Seriously hope this improves FB for Android.
Its doo doo balls right now.
Doing the same thing for my girlfriend and a friend with Droids so it's Facebook.
I surmise there's an update coming soon for the official app that uses the new Facebook Android APIs including the new facebook graph API.
Let's hope they include chat soon too...
Same problem. Installed FB Touch as replacement meanwhile.
I also have problems with my email app. It force closes easily. Annoying.

I'm with you buddy. The native app sucks, no video uploads, wonky scrolling, no notifications. Bloo sucks too, it doesn't post comments when they've been posted, can't see who "likes" statuses, Babbler's even worse. Pisses me off that FB just wants a good iPhone app and forgets that some folks do not want the bloody fruit phone.
the best is actually... touch.facebook.com
i used to use fBook but it no longer keeps me logged in, so i went through a bunch *bloo, babbler ect.. but found "Facebook Touch" from the market is what i wanted and works.
i usually open it and go to the bottom and click "mobile" then i get an easy to use facebook that gives me notifications on the top.
Touch seems pretty good. Thanks for that. Are there no apps that allow you to tag photos? I'm mean really? LOL!

as for tagging photos, again use Facebook Touch from marketplace, then at the bottom click full page and just do it that way.
Those in the whatsapp beta for Android should update your software ASAP, because they just put in push functionality for everyone with a 2.2 phone. Is this the only software so far not from google to actually use the 2.2 push function? (C2DM and the likes do not count)
how is it different to what its doing now?? i shall update soon after i finish charging

It doesn't poll like the old version anymore, and after some testing, I am getting my messages a little faster, because there is usually a 10-20 second delay when the app is sleeping, but this time it's like a 2-3 second after my friend sends me the text via whatsapp.
ahh right so there would be better battery life too??
Is the beta app available? Have they mentioned a release date?
Thanks

Whatsapp is probably one of the most useful apps for someone coming from a blackberry and misses BBMs. The difference is the speed but the main upside is that it's crossplatformed. Also the app is good for people that travel and have an open wifi spot. Free messaging to friends back home is well worth it.

Nope, but it should be within the next few months, it's already very stable other than some of the extra stuff like backgrounds, etc.

Yeah, since I have quite a few friends with an iphone and BB, I'm able to send them messages via my data plan.
AppBrain's Fastweb Installer uses C2DM too for installation of applications from your PC browser.
Anything that uses C2DM is immediately interesting, I'll check it out!

It's not using the same type of 2.2 push unfortunately.
hows it different?
EDIT: also seems like there are sometimes big delays between messages. whatsapp keeps disconnecting in the new version
I had to revert back to an older verison I believe. Newest version yesterday kept logging me off also and messages were stalled until I sent one out then they'd all come in.
Looked on the changelog and they took off the "Push Notifications"
Currently running: v1.0.6138
I'm using whatsapp on 2.1. working pretty well so far. ... thinking of getting 2.2 but no sense UI ROM for hero yet.
can we have a link to the apps apk?
Aww man, they removed push notifications via C2DM and the reason was they need to give google a quota? I have no idea what that means.
http://beta.whatsapp.com/test/7/WhatsApp.html
* google push disabled -- we need quota from google
really, what's the difference/advantage of using C2DM. i dont understand what's going on in the background.
Yepp.... just downloaded the APK from the link provided above... You can download and install it, but when it asks for your display name, you will get a message that says "Unauthorized beta user, DO NOT E-MAIL US", or something like that.
That's too bad because I loved it on my BB to chat with my iPhone friends, you would think that it would be easier and faster to create an app for Android and it would already be out in the market !!
it works!! everyone gets that message just wait till tommorrow and try again and it will work. Heaps of people have had success using this method. dont give up so easily
updated yesterday and they've been approved for the push notification via GOOGLE's c2dm.
Only thing i've noticed is that the app unlike iPhone's version doesn't time out while it's in the background. So it seems like you're always logged in. This could be corrected by a task manager app to kill the app but once you receive a new message it auto logs you on and double check marks the message as read.
This is a stock (rooted) copy of the 3.28.651.1 OTA that Fresh Evo 3.2 is based on.
The only changes from stock are:
Made in to an update.zip format so that you can flash it, and an update script was created
Added superuser, busybox, apps2sd, and the necessary mods to the ramdisk to make them all work
Other than that it's untouched. This is so that others can use this same base for whatever purpose that they want. This is not any type of rom that I'll be maintaining or supporting, that's what Fresh Evo is.
Enjoy!
Download: http://geekfor.me/evo/22/stock-rooted-3-28-651-1
What are the changes?
Thanx.
might test this one day
It has a new kernel that has better battery life than previous stock kernels.
So far having serious issues with data connection. On initial setup, it took 6 tries to get gmail account linked, and 3 tries with another e-mail account. Trying to access market now and it's taking an obscenely long time to load. First time I tried to access market the connection timed out.
Now searching for apps on market and connection keeps timing out. Guess I gotta go back to my 3.26 backup. Man I wanted better battery life.
Update: Finally got market to find Titanium Backup. It's downloaded 148KB in 5 minutes so far. lol
So is there any changes from the donor version to the official released ver.

My gps and htc weather work fine, its was just the htc Peep app. Btw, my software is 3.26.651.6. Hopefully I can work up the stones to root my phone this weekend.

Correct. Peep access to Twitter is a problem with the Peep software on ANY ROM, even on stock, non-rooted. HTC is working to address this problem.
Not sure about the other problems, though.

I haven't flashed the new rom yet, on stock deodexed and my weather gps hasn't updated since yesterday. I've been syncing it every so often since about 7pm last night when I got home from out of town. It still works fine for maps so I think it's a system wide problem for htc weather, like peep.
Ok... downloaded from different link and didn't wipe before flashing and GPS weather works. First try did full wipe and had poor result. Now to test battery life.
btw... Twitter acknowledges issues with some 3rd party clients not working.

Full wipe and fully functional here. Weather/ GPS all good.
I cant download or install anything from the market. This just started happening within the hour.
It acts like it begins the download, then nothing.
this is extremely frustrating. anyone have anything on it?? how to fix, happening to you?
thank you
Same for me. Maybe the servers are in maintenance.
For the moment I think that all we have to do is wait and and see.
I'll get more concerned if it's still not working after 24h...
i can download anything except Gapps...
EDIT: Im getting a force close, a vending error...
I'm also having an issue starting today with downloads/installs using AppBrain and the stock Market place
I have a Samsung Vibrant running Bionix-V 2.2
Seems like only certain apps won't download (like Google Maps), I just downloaded an update for Mixzing though and it got installed
It just looks like it downloads and then it goes back to saying "Update" or stalls at the end of the download and doesn't install
Just thinking: maybe it has to do with the Google announcement that'll happen today. It is rumored that they would introduce the Android Market website besides Honeycomb ... So they may be doing tests or else that could have an impact on the market?
Same thing on my end.
pissing me off, it's been acting up all day.

Been trying on wifi and 3g, no go. No application can install/update. Instead, it "pretends" it is installed (shows in my Downloads/My Apps section), allows me to comment/rate, but still reports "Free" instead of "Download/Update"

Android Market acting weird -- is it a precursor to tomorrow's event?
We've gotten a bunch of tips in the past hour or so that the Android Market is doing weird things, and we can corroborate this on our Nexus S here -- we're just not able to download stuff. Apps look like they're starting to download, then they suddenly vanish into thin air without a trace and without an error message. Our Droid 2 is still fully functional, though, so this definitely isn't consistent; really, we're just wondering if this outage might have something to do with tomorrow's Android-themed festivities at the Google campus, which -- naturally -- we'll be attending. So how is everyone faring out there tonight?
Hi, you may try to clear Market cache in app settings. I used to solve my problem in that way.
Facebook in market has new version.
G2x with CM7 and faux kernel. NONSENSE!!!!
What's different about this new version? Looks the same to me.
Read the change log in the market?

Facebook for android? not sure why but I changed the settings to manual notifications and it killsmy battery life.... , anyone elsE?
seems to look and act a lot more like facebook mobile now
the update was crap with some okay kinda cool features, but it sucks completely. They just dont care too much about it. I mean, Twitter apps are more popular for android then Facebook, and I only know 2 people that use that social thing.
The new update messes up notifications for me. Every time I use facebook chat or message, I get a notification "you have one new message," and when you tap on it it doesn't bring you to the message. This is very annoying because if I'm on the website chatting, I'll get multiple notifications to my phone that I got a new message even though I'm not signed onto chat on my phone. I reverted back to the older version.

I'm seeing alot of bugs with this update myself. Uploading videos is nice, the mobile site feel is nice, but the status update page always reloads and never just stays put. I have to switch over to my profile if I want to update my status. I thought maybe it was a fluke and even tried clearing the app data and then uninstalling and reinstalling the app, no luck.
