[Q] Why won't Facebook load on my Sensation? - HTC Sensation

I have been having data problems, and those problems have been fixed with one exception, the Facebook app does not work. I only receive notifications. Nothing loads on the app however, I only get the top bar of the app then it constantly tries to load but it says connection is lost, even though I can immediately go into my web browser and start browsing the internet.
I use Friendstream too, which works, so its not much of a problem, its just annoying and cumbersome. Especially since I still get notifications from Facebook. Does anyone know what could be wrong?

Try reinstalling the app from the play store. If not, clearing the cache+dalvik after the reinstall might help things.

I tried all of that and nothing works. It doesn't want to connect at all. Extremely frustrating.

Perhaps you can find a different facebook application.

Tried FriendCaster, but it won't even get past the Log In to Facebook startup page. It just says loading.... I can access the mobile site just fine however. What gives???

[Q] Can't download/install any market apps

Today I received my new shiny Asus Transformer, everything works great except the Market itself...
I can't even download any apps, paid or free. When I try to download any apps, it start like trying to download, but there is no progress on notification bar and it just keep like that.
I reset the tablet several times, also, cleaned the cache of the Market and Framework services, shutdown (restart) several times... nothing
Is this happening to anyone? I searched this forum and performed the steps above, but still nothing...
Please, help
Have you look into My App area, you will see, not installed list of apps. I get that as well...I am not sure if it's a bug or intended. Sometimes, it would stay at download forever. I got to go out and go back into the Market and redo it all over.

Yes, sometimes the apps I am trying to download don't even appear there and sometimes it does. When it says "Installing" sometimes, 1 hour can pass and still nothing... no progress on the notification bar.
In fact, I can't install anything from there, not even using the website version, https://market.android.com/
I had/have this same issue I think its a bug in the market app. I've just flashed the new firmware and it seems to work OK now.
My solution was to press back over and over until I exited the market fully, then start a new instance of it. Works on and off.
Ill let you know if the update solves this issue.

Thanks for the info.
I tried that, still no luck I need to know if this is a widespread issue or not.
I have the EVO and tried to download apps and install them now without any problems.
Also, I have discovered that I can't log in into GTalk either, but I can browse without any issues.

Sounds like an odd issue with your account. Try to check settings, accounts an sync .. and see if anything is amiss. If not, then try to create a new gmail account, and use that to login to market/gtalk. See if there is some confusion as to your phone account and your tablet. Do you have settings>Privacy ticked off for google to back up your apps and sync them? Try disabling if so.
Had same issue and went into settings and had to delete my gmail account and then add it again, worked fine after that!
Thanks for the replies.
1. The Backup and Restore settings are turned off.
2. I have created another Google account and removed the original, still the same problem.
3. The EVO is currently off just in case.
After doing some research, I've discovered that Gtalk have something to do with the Market, if Gtalk can sign in, then the market should works for downloads. If not, then there is a problem.
ok... wtf
After adding a new Google account while replacing the original one, the issue still happened.
Then, I decided for a million times, to make another Factory Reset with my original account again... now GTalk logon and the Market download/install apps
I will keep this thread in mind and report if anything weird happens again.
Android Market hates me. I didn't really want to have to create another gmail account but I have tried every other trick posted and still can't get apps to download.
I had this same problem with my Samsung Fascinate. 3G would download fine but I couldn't get WiFi to work until just recently when I updated the radio that came with the OTA Froyo update plus a new custom rom/kernel. I'm not sure which piece all of the sudden made things work but I was certainly happy. What's so frustrating is that I set up a Droid on the same home network with absolutely no problems from day one.
Amazon App store works fine but many of the apps I want aren't available there. Grrr.

This occurred to me after rooting the TF. I was able to correct it by going into applications and force stop and clearing data on both Market and both google framework services. Then try to restart market, if you don't get a error go back to applications and do it again. Once you get the error reboot, when you try market after the reboot it will ask you to accept terms again and then all is was right again with the world.
I have the same problem. How I can do a Factory Reset?
It was working ok but now it gives an error with the server. Eventually it will download the aplication after trying several times but will fail in the instalation. I have deleted and created again my account with no results.
Welcome to my problem. Another member told me the issue lies with our google accounts and how it syncs up with the market.
I have tried the other methods deleting cache / signing in and out etc. to no avail.
Only solution is to factory reset. Sad thing is it has happened to me 3x in the past 5 days.
I only hope for a solution to this soon.
3 times, that is scary.
Something has surprised me when I upgraded my phone to the new Galaxy S 2 from HTC HD 2 running an Android rom. When I introduced the google account it automaticaly pointed me all the aplications that I had installed in the old phone (free or paid) and give me an easy option to install all quickly. They were identified as my aplications, even they were not installed.
Is this funtion present here? It will remember what aplications I had installed in the transformer before or I will need to look for all of them again?
solution to download apps
press on apps on the home screen. then press on market. this will get you started click on sign in at top right of screen. it should automatically do a sign in with your google account. then go from there

I've done the following in the past to resolve issues. The facebook app sometimes acts kinda screwy for whatever reason.
menu>settings>applications>facebook>clear data
thanks both, will try the log out first and then clear data...
I've have now tried both ways but still the problem remains.

Constant 927 error in play store

Hey guys..I know the 927 error happens randomly, but literally everytime I go into the playstore after flashing a rom
A) it doesn't load any of my apps, either currently on the device, or any of my downloaded apps under "all"
and
B) when I attempt to download ANYTHING it hangs for about 20 seconds and then gives the 927 error.
And it's not ROM-specific...it's happened across three of four different roms. Do you guys have any advice? I've tried the force stop, clear data trick, and the clear data from download manager trick. I'm getting annoyed haha. Any help is greatly appreciated.
I am in the same boat, I've searched everywhere for the answer but nothing works.
this sucks man i get the same thing and no fix it looks like
Did you try clearing data of Google Play Services, too, and removing and re-adding your Google account?

I have seen this support thread before, in most cases you must do a factory reset. It was a couple weeks ago look around the forum, there are some fixes but it did not help this guy and a factory reset is the only option.

[SOLVED] Nexus 5 not downloading some files

Something strange is happening to my Nexus 5 (rooted, stock ROM & kernel): it doesn't download some kind of files, regardless of if I'm connected to a Wi-Fi or to a cellular network.
When I surf the internet through Chrome everything works fine; pages and images load correctly. However if I try downloading, for example, an .apk, the download is not successful, it doesn't even start. Similarly, I can perfectly chat on WhatsApp with no problems, however I cannot download photos or videos. And again, Twitter loads everything but pictures (I can see all the tweets on my home but I can't see any kind of pic, not even the profile pictures). Also, I don't get tweets notification. I already cleared the cache of every application, and I also tried uninstalling and reinstalling Twitter, with no results.
This happened in the past because of a wrong configuration of my APN, but since this happens on Wi-Fi too, I cannot explain the cause. Can you help me?

Already tried using many different browsers. It's not a browser's problem because
- I have never had any problem with Chrome
- The problem I'm reporting is affecting multiple apps

Yes, I did
Finally I discovered what the problem was. There was something wrong with the /data partition (or with its permissions, I don't know) and I couldn't write on the internal SD card. I realized this was the problem because:
- I took some photos and they didn't save
- I took a screenshot and an alert notification said it couldn't be saved
- ES File Browser saw /sdcard empty.
I resolved with a factory reset.

New V30 all of a sudden google apps have trouble connecting

Hi,
I just updated my Verizon V10 to a VZW V30 and I've encountered a problem. that I've been unable to find a solution for.
Google apps have had issues connecting to the internet either via Wi-Fi or Cellular data. the apps i'm having problems with are:
Assistant
Search
Maps
Both Chrome and GMail are fine. But the others are not.
I've tried downgrading them to previous versions, clearing data and cache data, force stopping and restarting, rebooting the phone, cycling data and wifi. all to no avail.
None of my other apps have issues and I can get to google maps via chrome, do searches via chrome, etc...
Is this a known issue? Is there a fix for this?

Try uninstalling updates for each of the apps having this issue.

I can assume Google Play works then and it's only related to the apps you have mentioned above ?
That's correct. Play, drive, chrome, all fine, search, YouTube and occasionally maps fail.

Go to settings and give the three apps the permission to use wifi manually, seems its disabled after the update

There were no permissions to use wifi, in the applications setting for those apps, and I couldn't find anywhere else to set those permissions.
ALso what about 4G? They don't connect via that either.
I'm almost ready to factory reset the phone and see if that helps. But it takes a long time to set it up again.

yeah a factory reset must do it, maybe its because of the update (that happens alot) but do a backup first
I did do a factory reset and things seem back to normal now.
