Just picked up the Sprint Galaxy S2. I tried to sign in under the accounts in settings and it will not let me link up to any of my Linkedin, Facebook or Twitter account. I have tried everything, I even reset my facebook password just in case and unhide it while typing it in. I was able to setup exchange just fine.

Anyone else with these issues?

Mine worked just fine for Facebook and Twitter yesterday. Out of curiousity, did you try to set up those accounts before installing the official Facebook and Twitter app? Try installing the facebook and twitter apps from the market first and then give it another shot.

I tried this just now no luck. Hard reset, i even turned on and off facebook app and website setting. I also tried changing facebook primary email and changed password. No luck! Still "Login failed. Try later" so i guess ill do that.

If you go to Settings > Accounts and Sync > choose the account you want to remove and there should be a button at the bottom.

@sewred: you may want to exchange the phone if it's really giving you that much trouble. You tried signing in through the apps themselves, not the Accounts menu right?

Yes. I actually tried both ways; but yes, i called samsung again and talked to a 3rd level tech; this is a known issue, and their software guys have been working on it for 2 days he said. They'll most likely do an update.

But I also called sprint, and yes, they did give me a ticket number to return the phone, which i know i don't need, since i have 14 days to return it any way.
I'll return it next week , as soon as a store as one in; everybody is out at the moment.

Yep it doesn't work here on my phone either...

I downloaded BLOO since I liked it better than the fb app itself. But it would be nice if this somehow started to work...

BTW where is root yet..? LOL

Root is close, there's people on it as I type. They thought they had it, but there's a small problem that they're trying to fix. Someone will post in the "all things root" as soon as its confirmed working and tested.

And yeah the social hub not working is a widespread problem, I'm guessing a fix will be coming along soon.
