Has anyone noticed that HTC Sence isn't updating peoples status updates etc for Facebook?
I noticed because I am using the People Widget in LauncherProPlus and peoples status updates were not being updated. For example, I have a friend that I KNOW has updated her status a few times in the last few days. Pure Messenger widget has shown me the updates, as has the Facebook site. BUT, the People Widget still shows an update from about 5 days ago.
So, I checked the People(contacts) app that comes with the phone. Sure enough, the Status Updates tab only showed old updates for everyone.
So, I cleared the data in the apps settings on the phone. Sense will not update peoples status and their pictures have gone. I can no longer link contacts either.
Looking around, this problem has recently come up but there appears to be no solution. This thread confirms what I am seeing: http://androidforums.com/htc-hero/129913-facebook-htc-sense-login-issue.html
As a note, I have no issues with Sense logging into FB, but it doesn't sync.
So really a heads up that you may well be having issues that you might not have noticed. Now you have, it'll bug you just like me. Anyone know of a work around?
In the mean time, even though sync isn't working. I can get my contact pics back using a free app called SyncMyPix from the market.
