Help Problem with feeds and updates widget

I was using the samsung feeds and updates widget for my facebook but today I noticed something odd. It is now only showing anything posted directly on my wall, not anything posted in the news feed section on facebook like it was yesterday. So I dont see any updates or posts my friends make unless they post right on my wall.

I looked at the settings but that only gives me the option for refresh time and whether I want the updates to include facebook twitter etc.

Anyone got any suggestions?
 
Same here. Maybe a FB feed problem because I am only getting Twitter unless it is a direct FB post
 
all my fb settings are the same. the widget was working fine when i last checked it at 1 am last night. then this afternoon when i was refreshing it i noticed all the posts were from my page and no news feeds from any friends were showing up.

Yeah exactly what happened to me....hhhmmmm please let me know if anyone gets theirs fixed! Glad it was not me who screwed it up! whooo
 
i even checked my fb news feed settings. click on most recent and a drop down menu appears go to edit options and it will give you the option to show posts from : all friends and pages or people you interact with the most.

i tried fussing with this but it didnt change anything with my widget.
 
Hey i had this problem yesterday i went into setting and cleared data and didnt use it for a day put it back on my home screen took about 2 minutes but all my friends feeds showed this morning so maybe youll have the same luck
 
This seems to have been a pretty widespread problem for all samsung phones on all carriers on the 27th. Mine still wasn't working this morning but I just trashed the app and put it back on. It took a little longer than usual to load the feeds but it seems to be working fine now.
 
yeah mine still wasnt working this morning either, but I didn't remove it from my screen. I just hit refresh now and all my friends feeds are back up:confused:. I went to ask my husband if his fb widget was working right but then i realized he has an iphone so no widgets for him.
 
mine was working when i last posted, but since last night whenever i try to refresh i just get a network error message. even happens when i use wifi
 
Possible solution...
So I went into my sync and got turned off sync with facebook and restarted. Then when the phone booted back up I set it to sync again. When I went to refresh the feeds page it asked me to login again and once I did that all my feeds appeared just as they had before.
