Hi guys,
here's the thing
i have John Doe on my contact list, linked to his facebook account (as he's my friend on that social network).
I took a picture of him and X10 tagged him correctly (as it supposed to)
now my question is there is a way i upload that photo (with John Doe tagged) to facebook and appears his name on facebook? just like "people on this photo" or something like that (I use facebook in spanish, my native language).
i tried but it did not work, maybe i missed some step or something like that, or maybe this feature doesn't exists.
i have found no official info about it, only a few comments on google, so I decided to ask the expert.
BTW, i searched the forum and found nothing similar to this, so if this question is already answered, my bad.
greetings

I don't think it does that yet.. this should probably be implemented in the UXP update coming later this year
The feature doesn't exist, and would require a lot more work than is necessary.
Currently, when a third-party application tags a photo, you're required to approve the tag request on FB itself.
It's probably better to hope Facebook makes their app better than expect SE to require users to take additional steps.
thanks for the replies

Hi, I'd just like to say how great this site is, however, I have 1 question to which I could not find the answer; When I try to add an Attendee in an appointment in the calendar, it doesn't find ANY contacts, SIM or Outlook. I tried creating one though the calendar, and it does appear in the phonebook, it still doesn't show up in Calendar. I had a quick look through the myriad settings that the HTC has but couldn't see anything obvious to change.
Any ideas?
Thanks, BM
Many apologies
I would like to apologise for my noobishness with regards to my problem, but just in case in helps anybody else who thinks they're having the same problem; it's because you don't have any e-mail addresses stored in your contact's details.
It only took me 4 days in total to figure out
Sorry for any bad impressions, I am normally quite intelligent and resourceful, but it only took so long because I didn't have any e-mail addresses to begin with!
BM.
Edit: Apologies also for bumping.
Hi, I have searched alot and i cant find if its possible to link contacts to their facebook even if you do not have them as a friend on your FB account!
I ask this because i don't JUST LET ANYONE see my facebook i only let real and true friends see it and I dont add random class mates even though i got the contact details etc.
so my question is
is it possible to link contacts to their facebook even if you do not have them as a friend on your FB account!

I doubt it as it would be part of the security that Facebook runs, nothing to do with the device.

Facebook also allows people to set the privacy options! If the person allows EVERYONE to see the profile pic then it should download to my phone init!
Not sure if it works, but if you can it would be a manual process.
If you go to the outlook contact of someone you HAVE linked, you'll see something like this:
Code:
<HTCData><!-- Please do not modify -->
<Facebook>id:(numbers)/friendof:(mynum)</Facebook>
</HTCData><sn>id:(numbers)/friendof:(mynum)</sn>
You would copy that, paste it into your other friend's outlook contact, and edit the (numbers) portion to be that person.
AKA, a complete waste of time, but it might work.

I dont understand a thing Your are trying to say!
Hello Guys!
First of all: Excuse my English, I'll try my best
Well, since yesterday I'm a proud owner of a HD2 and I'm slowly trying to get
everything fitted to my needs
I installed CHT, SecureW2 for WPA2-Enterpise access and so on, also my e-mail stuff works fine.
But I'm not able to find out if its possible to make my phone use my ical calendar file which I've stored on icalx.com.
This file is used by my laptop and desktop PC as well, but i do not really want to synchronize with Thunderbird Lightning all the time, I just want my HD2 to use the published file as well so that it is always up to date, so that i do not need to synchronize it every day.
Anyone knows if there a way to do that?
(I'm really sorry if I missed something similar using the search fuction, I only found problems related to syncing with thunderbird)
Oo falling off the first page goes pretty quick here!
Anyways...another question i have is: Is HTC Calender an application itself or is it just a graphical interface for the outlook calendar? I mean Outlook should be able to ready .ics or am I wrong here?
as theer are more users online now...I'll give it a last try.
Is there really nobody who has tried this before? I always had the impression that this is a common way to sync ones calendars

First of all: Your English is excellent!
And concerning your question: Have your read this thread? I'm not sure if it is what you are looking for. Also, I found this, which looks promising as well.
EDIT: LOL - this is a featured article on the xda-developers front page today: http://www.xda-developers.com/windows-mobile/icalendar-appointmentstasks-icalparse/ What a coincidence?
this is really LOL!
But thanks a lot, I'm already trying it out and despite a minor bug it seems to work quiet well!
Hi there,
I've just been going through my list of contacts - now quite a few of them contain a profile picture that has been taken directly from Twitter or Facebook.
Most of them don't though and just have the rather ugly 'silhouette' icon instead - even though the vast majority of these people are on Facebook or Twitter.
Does anyone know why this is? And how I can go about changing this?
Thanks a lot,
Anyone at all?
Are they linked to other contacts?
I found out that if I had the same contact in gmail and Facebook, I had to choose the facebook-one and link to the gmail-one and not vice versa to get the pictures to work.
For me some of my contacts worked out of the box, while others had to be fixed by hand.
Reason was normaly, that the names are not 100% identical!
Something like German Names with รถ was oe on Facebook or short types like "Max" and "Maximillian"...
Hello,
I set EVERY contact I have with Birthday information, and it is perfectly displayed on my X10 mini with cyanogenMod 6. On the Arc however, the birthday field is not shown. I do have a calendar with all the birthdays, but if you have no clue when someones birthday is coming up, this is a real pain in the ass...
Is the birthay only displayed on cyanogenmod or did S/// (for whatever reason...) disable this feature?
Is there a workaround?
Any suggestions?
Thank you,
Linkin
I'm planning to buy Arc ( waiting for it to be available in my country ), and now I'm worried about this as I used to have Birthdays in any contact that I know his/her birthday...
BTW, does Android add a yearly calendar event when adding new birthday to a contact ?
the birthday entries dont get deleted, you just cant see them...
I enabled the option "birthday calendar of your contacts" so when you enter a new contact's birthday it will shop up there, but unfortunately you cant enter it with the xperia arc (at least at the moment...)
Does someone have a solution to this?
I don't have Android yet but I believe there's some apps in the market that will let you do so
yeah, another dialer app might help. But isnt there a way to fix this another way?
If not, can someone tell me, whats the name of the gingerbread stock dialer or give me some tipps?
ok as a solution does anyone have the possibility to give me the apk files for the contacts/dialer app from cyanogenmod 7?
I didnt find them :/
well, since there seems no option to change this, I did the following:
Contapps can show you the birthdays:
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.contapps.android&feature=search_result
I tried A LOT OF CONTACT APPS, and this is the only one I found which does show the birthdays, but the way: it seems to be a really good app!
Ebobirthday shows and can give you a reminder for birthdays:
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.ebomike.ebobirthday&feature=search_result
Keep testing it, but since Contapps does most of it, I think I'll remove it!
Nevertheless: if someone can offer me an apk file to the default gingerbread contact app, I would really appreciate it!
