PHP oAuth always returns code 400 - php

Question

I am connecting to Tumblr (it's the same process as twitter almost identical).
I get all the way through to the verify page, verify the app, then get returned to the previos page, all of the correct stuff is on the querystring but i get a 400 error a bit on the API docs says that this means "invalid input data".
Here's my code:
require("tumblr/tumblroauth/tumblroauth.php");
// Enter your Consumer / Secret Key:
$consumer = $conf['Tumblr']['consumer'];
$secret = $conf['Tumblr']['secret'];
/* Start session and load lib */
if(!isset($_REQUEST['oauth_token']))
{
// Start the Session
session_start();
$connection = new TumblrOAuth($conf['Tumblr']['consumer'], $conf['Tumblr']['secret']);
// this url is correct
$url = "http://" . $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'] . $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'];
$temporary_credentials = $connection->getRequestToken($url);
$redirect_url = $connection->getAuthorizeURL($temporary_credentials, FALSE);
echo "going to".$redirect_url; // looks good
//have to use this as headers have started
echo '<script>window.location.href="'.$redirect_url.'";</script>';
}
/* If the oauth_token is old redirect to the connect page. */
if (isset($_REQUEST['oauth_token']) && $_SESSION['oauth_token'] !== $_REQUEST['oauth_token']) {
$_SESSION['oauth_status'] = 'oldtoken';
session_destroy();
}
if(isset($_REQUEST['oauth_token']))
{/* Create TumblroAuth object with app key/secret and token key/secret from default phase */
$connection = new TumblrOAuth($consumer, $secret, $_SESSION['oauth_token'], $_SESSION['oauth_token_secret']);
/* Request access tokens from tumblr */
$access_token = $connection->getAccessToken($_REQUEST['oauth_verifier']);
/* Save the access tokens. Normally these would be saved in a database for future use. */
$_SESSION['access_token'] = $access_token;
/* Remove no longer needed request tokens */
unset($_SESSION['oauth_token']);
unset($_SESSION['oauth_token_secret']);
/* If HTTP response is 200 continue otherwise send to connect page to retry */
if (200 == $connection->http_code) {
/* The user has been verified and the access tokens can be saved for future use */
$_SESSION['status'] = 'verified';
echo 'connection made heres the code:<br/>'.$connection->http_code;
} else {
/* Save HTTP status for error dialog on connnect page.*/
// THIS IS ALWAYS BEING OUTPUT AT THE END
echo "oh no something is wrong code:<br/>".$connection->http_code;
}
}
Please can someone have a look I feel like I have tried everything on the planet to get this to work..

I think your problem is here
$redirect_url = $connection->getAuthorizeURL($temporary_credentials, FALSE);
Try
$redirect_url = $connection->getAuthorizeURL($temporary_credentials);
and let us know if you're still having trouble
