[SOLVED] Mango Beta (7712) and Facebook issues? - Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Lately, I haven't been able to access Facebook on my WP7 device. At first it was just the official Facebook app not being able to pull information telling me that "Your username or password may have expired. Please log out and back in." I deleted my account info from email and accounts and re-entered it, let it sync, and it gave me the same info. I then started using Seesmic which worked for a few days. Now Seesmic is telling me that it can't pull my Facebook feed.
Any one else having these issues?
EDIT: Got it. First I removed and resynced Facebook from email and accounts. I had to go to Facebook and remove Facebook for WP7 from the list of apps that can access my information. Then I had to manually remove Facebook from my phone, reinstall it, and now it works.

[APP] Could an app be stealing Google account settings?

I've had GMAIL since day 1.. NEVER had any issues with my account.. used it on a normal basis. Since getting into my Dinc, I've had to go through 2 account verifications with Google to get back into my account.. both times changing my password. I see that "something" has been spamming email from my account.. at first I thought it was spoofing my email address as the sender, but now I am seeing the email in my sent folder...
Question, is there an app that can monitor when this kind of activity is going on with my phone like this? It's not my computer... I forward all my GMAIL to my main email account (not gmail) so I NEVER log into GMAIL on a computer.. the only thing that is actively logged in is my phone..
Ideas?
I've had the same problem, ended up restoring an old nandroid backup & reinstalling the things i''d lost.
seems t have fixed the issue but my gmail defiantly got hacked; everyone with a hotmail account got sent spam
Just because your email account was hacked does not 100% indicate a malicious program on your phone or computer.
For example: You could have signed up for a website or forum using the same password as your email account. If that forum DB gets compromised, then your password could have been decrypted from the sql database...
It's possible some app has sent an email if:
You've entered your Google password to that app.
You've authorized that app for Google account using WWW (OAuth) or Android OS, but you didn't notice it requests permissions for sending emails.
You gave root permissions to that app and you have Google account set up in Android OS.
I think there is no other way to get access to your account.

[Q] 2 Facebook accounts. 1 major problem

I have my primary facebook account sync'd from the setup/accounts page. I use this because it syncs the contacts in my messages and phonebook. I use the android FB app as the primary widget for this account. I wanted to add an additional account. so I used Pure widgets. However, purewidgets logged me into the primary FB account automatically. I could not get out of it.
Then I used Friendcaster. It did allow me (I thought) a partition or separation of accounts. Come to find out It recognizes the second account "sometimes". If I get a notification or a message on the second account it will sometimes open up the primary Android app - though it is not logged into that account. Anyone have this problem? It's getting kind of annoying now...
Same here. Hope someone can help figure it out.

Social hub wrong contacts sync with facebook

Hi everyone,
It has been a month now since i got my galaxy tab 7 plus - my first android device - wich is doing great till now.
I'm just having a strange problem with syncing contacts with facebook as it actually syncs the contact with the right facebook account but it switches the email info it gets from facebook between contacts and every contact has an email that belongs to another one!
I've noticed that this problem starts when i get the "facebook session expired" notification so i put my email and password again and every thing gets mixed up!
The only solution that worked for me is removing "facebook account" from accounts and sync + removing "samaungmobile" app from my facebook account and then comneting and symcing again.
I hope that someone knows how to solve this

Twitter contact sync

Is it just me or did twitter get rid of contact syncing?
I know I saw this before, but cant find the setting anywhere.
It used to sync contact info for who you're following so that you could combine/link that data with/to the person's contact info on the device.
Now, all I see in Accounts and sync is a "Sync Twitter" line with no mention of contacts.
Ok, Ive done some more research and realized that this settings was removed a few versions ago.
So my new question is:
Does anyone have an app that will sync twitter contacts to my device and attach status updates through the people app? (4.0+)
Thanks.

Hotmail/Outlook Problems?

Is anyone else having problems with inbox? Since yesterday I changed to outlook.com and reseted my phone, but i'm not receiving anything from the Inbox folder. Any other folder is ok. If I set a rule to move all new mails to another folder, I receive it normally in my WP (still, even after receiving the email, I got no notification in lockscreen. Just tile).
Anyone else?
Im in same boat.

Assuming you have Twitter account added to your WP, try this:
1. Delete Twitter from Email + Accounts list
2. Reboot phone
3. Sync mail
You should see your mail again. I was also able to add Twitter back to my list without losing the sync.
Calendars
I haven't changed my Hotmail/Windows Live email address to the Outlook.com but I did change to the new 'Outlook' style before switching back to the classic style.
I don't know if it's connected but my Windows Phone is only displaying my Facebook calendar. The default Hotmail calendar is in the settings but is not displaying. And my other calendars aren't even in the settings.
How do I get back all my calendars :-S ?
EDIT: Editing the linked Twitter account seemed to fix the problem.
I don't know if re-adding the Twitter a/c will cause the problem to reoccur.

I've also seen this work for other users if they remove their LinkinIn account, re-sync, and re-add the LinkedIn account. This has also been reported as a viable workaround for @msn and @live mail accounts as well.
Does anyone know if migrating from hotmail to outlook will enable flag email function in windows phone? afaik hotmail doesn't have flag option in windows phone but outlook does.
