Whenever i try to check in through the new me hub in Mango RTM on my Omnia 7, i can pick a place and add a message but it always brings the error
"Can't Post Message - We're having trouble posting your message to Facebook" when the flag submit icon is pressed.
Can this be fixed?
Im just wondering whether this is a common issue with the Release or its just my phone (or me ) being a silly beggar.
Ive already got my region set up like Settings > region+language > Browser & search language > English (United States) to have access to bing music/vision, however it is a UK bought and used phone.
Thanks
try to sync your facebook account
Nope still no joy. Ive been using fb chat, switching online status' and posting messages just fine. Its just the Check-in option that refuses to connect. Hmmm
what about some settings on facebook? Can you check-in on WL/Twitter?
I have the exact same problem on my HTC Trophy (Spark) running MangoB2. I've found no solution yet.
I can check in directly through the facebook wp7 app yeah, and use all of the other built in fb services brought with mango, just no Check in.
I have no twitter account to try.
EDIT: Is it working for anybody else on different hardware/region settings?

It tells me it can't connect to see who's online. I've gone through all the different walkthroughs online, and none of them work.
Also, I can't seem to delete my linked Facebook account in Settings. It tells me this feature isn't available yet so I have to go to Live.com to do it, but when I do, it tells me I can't remove it because: There seems to be some trouble connecting this service to Windows Live right now. Please try again later..
Can anybody help? I swear I was allowed to delete my Facebook account in Settings last night...
"Delete Facebook?
This feature is not working yet. You can go to the Windows Live site on your computer and remove Facebook from your Windows Live account if you want to delete it"
This is what it says when I hold down my Facebook account and tap delete.

How long has it been since you added Facebook chat to your Windows Live profile?
If its only been a few hours, you may have to wait a day or two. Sometimes it can take a very long time for Windows Live and Facebook to register each other and for your Facebook contacts to start showing up in Messenger. The other methods on the forum do not always work. Sometimes it just takes a little patience. Took my phone a day before any contacts showed up.
It took me like 5 mins to have all Facebook Contact List on my Windows Live Messenger.
Do one of the methods, wait 24 hours, and then report back. Most of the focus should be on the computer end. But I think the reason why many here are jaded about this is because many of us had to wait for it to just work. Which had nothing to do with the phone.
But then if it doesn't work, you may be SOL until the official update.
Nah, still not working. Pretty gutted about that really!
what I did was I deleted Facebook then went to windows live ( the same primary windows live account on my phone) and linked the two of them, then I readded Facebook and let it sync and also resynched windows live and then it connected and within 2 hours all my contacts started showing up. also make sure u have Facebook chat turned on in the messaging options.

Did you check in your online profile to make sure you linked the correct Face Book account? I too had a simulay problem with my daughters phone seems i linked my facebook account to her windows live so it did not work on the phone..
this is how you can tell
first login to your windows live @ live.com then click profile next to your name at top right then the details link on left then in the connect to you should see windows live and facebook if you do not see this then it facebook never connected and you should follow the steps again to connect facebook if you do see facebook click the manage link then click the edit link under facebook make sure the name that shows that you are connected to is the same as the one on your phone if it is not then you need to delete the facebook account from your profile next login into the correct facebook account then do the adding of the facebook account again and after you complete it and see your friends in the online and off line area of messenger you can go to your phone and resync facebook and windows live then in messenger tap offline then tap online it should be good then...
thing to note is the facebook account on windows live must match the one on your phone.
Mine kept saying it couldn't find anyone online even tho me Live account and Facebook were connected, but I managed to fix it.
I'm not sure if this was this trick but..:
1) Go to your Live account
2) Go to services
3) Go to the Facebook service
4) Just hit Save, even if you havent changed anything (also make sure the Chat is ticked).
5) Sync your Live account and Facebook on your phone
Everything was already ticked in my settings, but I just hit Save anyway and seconds later my Facebook Chat contacts started appearing.
Maybe somethings is improperly saved, and by just clicking the Save button again the settings are properly saved.
Do this:
Install Windows Live Essential, Log on WIndows Live Messenger
On the Bottom Right Corner of the Messenger Window, click Add and follow the step to connect Facebook for Live.
Log Out after you are done and then re log -in again.
You should be able to see the friendlist in a group called " Facebook" ( Must set show all friend, not "Online Only" )
Right click on a friend in Facebook group, and choose "Enable Facebook Chat"
Right now, you should see your Facebook friendlist on Windows Phone Chat.

Are you familiar with occam's razor m8 ??? "the simplest explanation is most likely the correct one."...
If all ppl have solve this by following those instruction, then you MUST do something wrong...
Follow the guides to the letter starting from blanc and not with " oh i id that and its not working' attitude....
just go to your Settings-Battery Saver, and UNCHECK 2 boxes :
always turn on Battery Saver when Battery is low,
turn on Battery Saver now, until next charge.
If you have unchecked both of them, you can connect to your Facebook Chat from messaging without any problem
Has anyone been able to get their twitter and linkedin contacts to show up?
I understand it might take awhile to sync between windows live, but it's been hours. In addition, I can get linkedin and twitter updates to show up in my what's new feed in the people hub, but only if I unselect the "only show posts from people visible in my contact list" option, which make the feed very cluttered.

im in the same situation
that makes me feel better, probably just going to be more time for everything to populate
No contacts either
Same situation...its been 4 hours now and no contacts. News feeds work (if you turn of the settings to allow ones without contacts)
Maybe this is a diference between the RTM and 7712 ?
Mine stills says "Setting up your account", been that way for hours.
same here
Same here no help

Twitter is working just fine for me now. Took a while for my Twitter contacts to appear though, longer than 4 hours. Now it works just fine.
It is working for me, but I haven't been able to figure out the exact parameters for it working..

I'm finding I have to do that for every new bunch of people that I follow.
Hopefully this is a bug in 7712 and will be fixed in the RTM build.
My LinkedIn is connected in the accounts setup, but I can't see any of my contacts in People :/
Is it btw possible to add an other live account and use that one for messaging??
I did this and can't see any of my contacts at the messaging hub :/
Twitter is working fine for me
Took about 5 minutes to set up the account and sync.

so your twitter contacts are appearing with your other contacts in the people hub?
No luck for me getting my twitter contacts to show, Im on AT&T with a Samsung Focus. Ive done about everything I can think of to make it work, no go.
I'm starting to think this might be another of the gaps between our release and the rtm release. It's been around 18 hours since I put my linkedin and twitter account info in the phone, and still no contact integration. I can get it to show in my what's new in the people hub, but without the contact integration, that feed is hopelessly cluttered.
I updated my Focus to 7712 yesterday.
Like some of you, Twitter still shows: "Setting up your account" - and it's been more than 12 hours.
I too, can see Twitter feeds, and can reply and post, put they do not appear on the People Hub.
I'm seeing that others say they are using a Focus; so, I wonder... is this something happening only to us using it?
I am using a Focus v1.3, and I have a 16GB SD on it which has worked flawlessly. Also, my device is developer unlocked through AppHub / Dreamspark.
Also, I updated to 7712 without changing the Zune client; that is, I had version 4.8 from when I installed the 7661 update, and when I plugged in the phone it downloaded 7712 and updated without a problem.
I hope this helps to sort out the issue.
definitely not a focus-only problem.
omnia 7 here, and i'm experiencing the same.
yea my zune software version is 4.8.2098.0 as well, as i didn't think there's a new one and the update went through anyway.
Hello my xda friends,
Last night I updated to Mango RTM version. Its all working very good.
I synced my Windows Live account with mail and people.
Also the chat is working good thru the Messaging hub.. But only facebo
ok is showing up..
So my question is: How can I add Windows Live accounts to the chat function?
Thanks alot
EDIT:
Some additional information: I have 2 Windows Live account. One for the marketplace (a fake one). This is also the one I add first in the phone.
This is because Zune then sees my fake account so im able to download apps.
After that I add my 'good' account. The problem is, the people from this account are not showing up in the Messaging hub??!!
Sounds excessively complicated to me. I'd just stick to one Live account (I use the one tied to my Xbox Live account, personally).

Yes I know but as far as I know its the only way to download / install apps from the Marketplace?
I tried a hard reset and entered my normal account first... then the Messaging page IS showing my people BUT as you can guess, I cannot download anything from the marketplace.
So right now its Marketplace VS Messenger....
You can't. The built-in Messenger only uses the primary Live ID. You cannot have it sign-on to multiple Live IDs at once, or use an alternate ID.
It seems to be that the marketplace is already available
At the 23 of august MS finally added the Netherlands to the list!
Finally I can drop my fake account
Thanks for all the answers
I added the GMail account through Google option (haven't tried the POP and IMAP).
It syncs fine, but it doesn't do a server search. Whenever I try it, it returns an error saying that it can't connect to the network.
Anyone knows how to fix it?
P.S. And how come there is not even an option to do server search for Hotmail?
Additional data:
- I'm using Samsung Focus with Mango
- device is unlocked, but branded to AT&T (not sure if it has anything to do with Gmail)
- tried both on 3G and WiFi
Thanks!

I have the same problem. It was present in 7712 and still is in the retail release of 7720. I also have a Samsung Focus, but I doubt that is the cause. I'm considering deleting the Google account from the phone and adding it back, but I hate to have to relink all of the contacts whose names are different from Facebook. Considering how Google has blocked non-primary calendars for Windows Phone and their event/invitation implementation is somewhat broken with Windows Phone, it wouldn't surprise me to learn that server search is also a broken feature, whether intentional or not. Has anyone had any success re-creating the Google account on the phone?
i've noticed the same problem! I hope this is just an issue of me just setting up my account wrong

I guess gmail wants us to go android, but I won't. I'm going to add another email account and suffer through. Fortunately for me I don't have a lot of important contacts with gmail.
I reported this to Microsoft a few weeks ago, and they are aware of the issue. I'm thinking it must be on Google's side. When labels come to Hotmail, I may just switch over entirely.
I have a windows phone but am currently having problem using Facebook chat on it. It keeps saying "No one is online" even though in my Facebook on my laptop says otherwise. I have linked it with my windows live account, synced both my windows live account and Facebook account on my phone already, and also ensured that battery saver is turned off. But I still get the same message. Can someone help me? Am I missing something? Thanks in advance!
Have you tried logging in via the web on a PC to live.com, clicked on profile, and then checked that under 'connected to' (left hand side) that facebook is there?
If you can see that, click on 'Manage' and then click on 'Edit' under the facebook listing, and check 'Chat with Facebook friends' is selected.
Then sync your account again. Some people had to 'go offline' and then 'available' again, and wait up to two hours. Have a read of this thread for more detail:

Hope that helps. Good luck with it.

I had that problem once, I think I had to log in to my Windows Live account and enable Facebook chat some how but it's been a while and really can't remember but I do know it has somethingto do with account settings.
Erm wverything's alright now. Don't know why but it started working this morning! Thanks for all your posts anyway hahas!
