By factory reset do you mean delete and restore? I just did restore (not delete and restore) but it did not work.

This also happens even if i factory reset then reinstall anna part1 & 2 and every package. in this state social app is fine but when you try and restore your backup files mostly in my case every thing it cause the social to malfuntion due to some files i guess.
What i did was a last resort is when you do a reset factory setting again, then install all anna packages, then restore backup files but i exclude the settings and application. i brought back every thing except the settings and app. This was a hassel since i had to download all apps and themes and others from ovi store. But it leaves the social app as it was from the day you bought your phone.
Hopes this help. Remember factory reset removes everything even contacts from the phones so be sure you had the phone backup before doing this. I assume you did a backup before the anna update anyway. Just to be safe.

Hi Junta208,
I tried delete and restore as you suggested. While restoring I skipped applications and settings. My social as well as other nokia widgets are working now. Thanks a lot.

Hi all,
quick update on the original question. We have an FAQ online for generic apps problems, but we are still working on issues with the Social client.
Q: After the update to Nokia Belle, I get an error message when I launch an app, my app crashes or doesn’t open anymore. What can I do to solve this?
A: Please check in Nokia Store if an updated version is available. If there’s no updated version available, please reinstall the app as followed: Connect your phone to your PC and open Nokia Suite. Then open your internet browser on your PC, go to www.nokia.com/store, log in with your Nokia account and search for the specific app. Click the download button, select installation via PC and then follow the on screen instructions.

Hi Yvonne,
Its not just the Social app.. its a few other widgets/app like Accuweather, Memory Bars, Meminfo, National Geographic, Movie Teasers.. all do not work anymore.
Seems like all the widgets/apps that read phone/system data are broken!
What api do these apps have in common that would cause them all to fail like this?

the solution to this is to delete this file, but you phone will need to be hacked to do so..

Greetings!
Thanks Junta208! I had the same problem, and it has been solved by your method, that is by delete and restore (factory reset) sans the Applications. Everything seems to be working fine now.
Just a heads up though, this also wipes out all your maps, so be sure to spend time, I had to download some 700 MB worth of India Maps through wifi and this took close to two hours.
