Freeze on Facebook update... - HD2 General

I've 1.43 ROM WWE.
When I want to "Update"/refresh my Facebook account in Manila (from Contact -> All People -> "Update and Events") my Leo freezes with a never ending "Updating..." status.
Manila become too slow and the only way to use the phone is to make a restart.
So I must disable auto-update elsewhere I had to restart my phone every time it updates.
The strange thing is that the update works because on next restart I can see new profiles photos and new friends updates.
Do 1.48 and 1.61 ROM solve this bug?
Another strange thing is that I can see my friends Facebook album through Manila Album software (it's fast and work very well) but I can't see my albums with this utility...
Also when I upload my photos via Manila Album I can't add a label/caption to them and the only way to do this is to use m.facebook.com from Opera. Really annoying...
Thank you.

Facebook Photo Sync not working

Hi,
I am having problem with the syncing of my contacts photos on Facebook in Manilla.
I have just installed Dutty's Leo R5 WWE Rom and I don't think this worked in the R4 either. The matching contacts come up when first logged into facebook, and the pictures appear alongisde the names when you match the contacts up, but my phone does not update its photos. They all seem to have the standard grey head and a small facebook icon in the bottom right.
If I remember correctly, it used to ask whether you want to update photos and birthdays, but it doesn't even give you the option now. Is there a solution, maybe something in the registry which can swicth this sync feature on.
The manila version is 2.5.19192828.0
Thanks
Jason

I haven't tried R5 yet (most likely tonight) but the facebook contacts on R4 work flawlessly for me. Everytime I update this it also changes the images it they have done so on facebook.
Have you tried removing the link or association which each contact and then linking them again to see if that works?
I have tried removing the link and readding but it doesn't work...

I find the same thing too, any solutions?

Manila 2.5 problem with TD2

Hi, there!
I'm having a nasty problem with my TD2 and have no idea what is going on.
The phone is working fine with the stock tom or any Manila 2.1/Titanium cooked rom.
The problem begins with any Manila 2.5 rom (believe me I tested them all).
I use activesync to synchronize my contacts, calendar and mail with Gmail. My typical contact consists of a name,surname, phone number,mail, birthday and a picture downloaded from facebook automatically.
Now when I flash a 2.5 rom, I do a hard reset two times, and synchronize with activesync. Then I go to the people tab to add favorites.
I add the first - everything is fine.
Second - ok
Third and manila dies completely after I select a particular detail on a contact.
I can go to start menu, lock the phone etc, but cannot return to home screen. After reseting the phone, everything is fine until I go to the people tab - selecting this hangs Manila.
Sometimes after doing a reset the people tab works but adding another favorite hangs it again.
What could cause this?
No idea what could cause, but the favourites I set up in manila 2.1 (and synced with Outlook) automatically come up when I first sync 2.5 with Outlook. I don't need to add them...
Might be some incompatibility with syncing to GMAIL

Go to one of your contacts which you have linked to facebook profile. Now scroll down to edit contact. Then click on picture and you should be presented with a choice to use either facebook profile photo or one from file
This is a common problem that most of the Manila 2.5 cooked ROMs have. Actually the only ROMs that i found that facebook Albums work is Dutty's R0 Holy Grail and the new XannyTechROM Leo 2.4 Turbo.
Even with those two though it's a give and take situation. You get the album, but you lose the automatic update of facebook Events and Updates and you need to update each contact individually to get the status updates.

This one is Dutty's Fix. It fixes the album but as i said above you lose the automatic update of facebook Updates and Events

Can also confirm no problems with updates, events, album using Xannys 1.6 Evo
Thanks to all for your advices.
I've tried the cab attached, and it works perfectly!
I've fixed the problem with it.
Thank you very much!
3lixir and Fallen Spartan can you please post your facebookSDK.dll files from /windows
I would appreciate it so that i can test to see if it will fix the problem.
3lixir i will test the cab you posted and report back. Thanks

HTC HD2 Facebook integration

Just 2 questions
1. Is there a way of sync-ing your phone contacts with facebooks so it uses the contacts face book picture etc, i can do this individualy but is there a way of doing it in one big go.
2. Can you sync your facebook calander to the HTC HD2 calander?
1. Login your facebook account in Setting/Data services. It will sync your contact with facebook avatar and birthday but the names in your contact book must be the same with your facebook friend names, if not, u have to sync one by one
2. I dont think we can
Anybody know of a better facebook app out there for the HD2?? Lets face it, the one that comes out of the box is about as much use as tits on a fish.......
There is an updated version floating around

Does the integration remain after a new ROM flash? If the names have been changed etc the first time, should do I guess?

the integration info is saved in the 'notes' field of your contact. once you sync back AND associate your phone with fb they will all re sync.
The one reason syncing with fb is good: profile pictures. Most of my friends dont like me to sit there, and take a picture of them when they give me their number, so this helps.

This works for most of my contacts, but I had to do a hard reset ant almost 1/4 didn't have nothing in Notes field - so didn't associate automatically. Is there any way to make a "full resync" or something similar so I don't have to manually associate those contacts next time?
P.S. something more simple than manually adding a Note
Does anyone have problem with this facebook sync. Everytime I try to sync, my HD2 gets verry laggy until it don't respond, and I have to pull my battery. This happens when i manually select update now, or if my phone is set to automaticaly update. Its really annoying
It's smooth for me
Maybe sth related to ur rom. Try hard-reset or flash another rom
I have done hard reset a bunch of times. HTC customer support told me to install the latest ROM, and then do a hard reset. I tryed it, but with no luck. Everything else, works like a charm. I do use ROM from HTC 1.66.409.1 (76641) NOR. Maybe I should look into some custom ROM's? Any tips for a good rom? I have been searching the forum and there is so many to choose from. Can I use anyone? Or should it be one for Norway?
Do u have HSPL on your phone? If yes, try to install a couple of cook roms. Remember to do a task 29 before flashing any rom. If u have no idea about what HSPL or Taks29 is, please do take a look in the HD2 Rom development, read threads about them, and there's also a thread for noob flashing guide. It takes time but worth it.
I can suggest u a couple of cook roms I've used but it's better that u should look into the Rom threads to see which one suit ur needs, every rom is really good and fast, stable more than stock rom. I can recommend some such as CleanEX, Energy or Touch-X
there is a program called SocialSync can be found here

i tried it on my HD2, it does work but it does take a long time to sync and transfer facebook details to your contacts (well maybe for me coz i linked like 100+ contacts)
but one thing good about this is that it edited the birthday field on my contacts on my device, and now can be used by manilaBirthday
also, if contact doesnt exist on your device, u can add friends from FB to ur contact list
question... if i login to the sense facebook without enabling it to download automatically every 2 hours, would facebook in sense still try to update by itself?
the reason here is i logged in to facebook in sense but did not enable automatic downloading yet surprisingly my phone started to access my internet. others experience the same?
does any1 know how to get the facebook sync back in action after turning it off. I disabled it temporarily, but I lost all the synced data as a result. After reactivating it, it no longer syncs (although for some reason it seems to acknowledge that the contacts have a facebook profile linked to them, but it is unable to download photos, updates etc)
Is there anyway to do it aside from a hard reset? Something I'd rather avoid
I'm using the stock ROM 3.14 (WWE)
Facebook for hd2 or hd2 for facebook?
No one has come across "snaptu"? Go to http://m.snaptu.com . there you download a app for your hd2, there is unsigned and verisigned which i dont understand the significance of it. But i lliked it. It is a JAVA app so you need to run JBlend and then snaptu app. i can do everything as on a computer except CHAT. Do you know anything better? please tell me. especially one that you can chat with.

lag from sense people dialing

if i hit call a contact from the sense tab it can take sometimes about 20 seconds til the phone dials.
i just flashed another radio and still having the issue.
ideas?
also happens sometimes if i hit someone on the recent call list on the dialer. but if i dial a number it goes automatically
Happens to me too
+1
It happens to me too
out of curiosity try removing the storage card perform a soft reset and see if this makes a difference
think thats not a radio problem, its a ROM/manila problem, as you told.
which rom version do you have?
which manila version?
any manila mod installed?

Disabling only does not work, you have to delete the Email Sync of Gmail. Sync just the contacts.. It should be fast!
