Ok so I thought I have tried them all. Hoping maybe someone can help with a couple issues. Currently using trillian with my GN2 and rooted with Scotts Amazingness. I wanted to try others due to lack of features of Trillian ( but best for battery and consistency) so I went to im+. Was good for a bit then started to lag. Then went to try ebuddy and nimbuzz which both got good reviews and everything was great but each was giving me an issue with logging in to Yahoo. Its was an oops message that said I needed to log in thru the http yahoo site which makes no sense. I tried logging in thru each apps website and yahoo works but just not thru the app itself. I tried to log into yahoo amd then do it thru the app with same results.. Fine thru yahoo.com but failed thru the app. Same with Nimbuzz . Any ideas or recommendations? Thanks!

I'm pretty sure the stock email (not gmail) app can do this... I know it works with multiple accounts, as I use it for gmail and yahoo...

Any of the multi IM clients should be able to handle this.
Try IM+ - https://market.android.com/details?id=de.shapeservices.impluslite

Tried fring briefly but I remember it irritating me for some reason. Will check it out again.
Hey, guys. I've noticed other phones having this problem, and it looks like the Xperia Play on Verizon is affected, too. When I go to Menu/Settings/Account & sync and try to add a Facebook account, it goes right back to the Account & sync page without adding Facebook. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling it with no success. Is there some sort of workaround?
Thanks
looks to be a issue w/ our phone.. I posted the same thing in general.
I added my fb account without any problems..

you are not running stock GB on Verizon tho
Yeah, I suppose I should have posted what I'm running. Currently I'm running Android version 2.3.2, Build number 3.0.E.2.89
All stock. (On a side note, this is also preventing me from rooting at the moment.)

Yep do you have problems with your front facing camera in video chat applications?
Well, the only one I've tried is Tango, but I read that the front camera not working is a known issue with that app and our phone. I haven't tried any others yet.

This is a remnant from the other builds I think. On other stock android devices, Facebook can still be a contact provider. Something is blocking it in the OS level from some tweak by SonyEricsson.
HOWEVER! You can get around it by using SonyEricsson's Life.Contacts as a synch partner to synch up FB contacts.

Hmm... I'll have to check that out. Thanks for the link.

Yeah, this is an issue, I think, that has to do with Sony stripping the Xperia facebook-in-android experience parts out of the phone, but forgetting to re-enable the FB built-in synch that it was blocking.
So for right now, you have to use the Life.Contacts app to be able to synch FB. The problem with it though, is that the config is only available through Life.Contacts' widget. So it makes it a bit of a pain. It also only works with one account type at a time. So you can't use Life.Contacts to synch FB, Twitter, and other social networks at the same time to my knowledge.
Ok so... How do you actually get this to work? I downloaded and installed life.contacts and linked to my facebook, but my contact still don't show their pictures and info. Did I do something wrong?
Does anyone else share in my frustration?
Often, I am notified to link contacts between my People list and my Facebook (official app) contacts as well as my Whatsapp contacts. This happens at least once a week, and at times, every other day.
I'll go into the Facebook app and all of the sudden will need to enter my password again. Within the hour, I'm notified of Facebook contacts that could potentially be linked with my people list. I link them all then save. You'd think that would be it, right? A couple days later, same password prompt, same contact link suggestions. The same thing occurs for Whatsapp, too. Both occur update app from the Play market or not and on stock and MikTouch 0.7.
It's a minor inconvenience but so annoying, as it seems like it's never really saving the link. Anyone else seeing this?

I remember months ago the facebook app threw phones into a constant sync, they would never stop syncing and never actually do so.
I don't use facebook, but had to troubleshoot for a user of my rom.
Facebook app is the most worthlessly coded POS app I've ever crawled through the code of, it makes little sense and has less coherency.
Using the app means subjecting yourself to it's problems, sorry for your troubles.

I can't check this right now, since at work I get no data anyway, but I already installed Fast for FB as an alternate, and ready to test this out. If it works that would be great, the data dropping in killing me.
I did the same thing. I noticed my data crashed repeatedly while in the Facebook app. Uninstalled, created a homescreen shortcut to the website. Works beautifully.
Just did it, and it seems to be much better, thanks. Installed Fast for FB as my FB app.
I don't even have FB installed and had data drops.

I have been having issues w/ google data staying connected, I think its the ROM, but I can't find out, cause I need 10 posts, each one has to be 5 minutes aparts. Is this site built by nuclear engineers? Are we solving the worlds problems here, or just android development? Can't tell the difference...
Does anyone get that prob when Facebook is just a plain white page ?

The Facebook App, or the Facebook website through the browser? In my case, I've had an issue with both. I have since given up on the Facebook app all together and just use a bookmark to the Facebook page. Anytime I would get the browser blank-white page, I would force-close the browser app and log back in. Typically would do the trick.
I flashed the new ICS radio and I don't seem to be getting data drops anymore

Hey there,
Since that original facebook app is pretty weird Im actually looking for an alternative app.
It doesnt sync feeds like it should, you cant replay straight to a comment and if you get a notification that youve been mentioned or somebody replied to your comment you got to search like hours to find it. Grrrrr

Try Friendcaster for facebook or Fast for Facebook
