I notice when I save peoples birthdays under their contact, their birthday appears on the calendar, which is good. The issue is though, this same thing does not apply for birthdays that I saved last year or prior. The calendar only reflects newly saved birthdays but does not reflect the old saved ones. Is there a way to fix this?

All of my birthdays showup but I got most of mine from fb so. But that's strange. You might just have to reenter the birthdays. Did you do any flashing latly.

My fb birthday all show with no issues. It's only birthdays actually saved to my phone. I've resaved a few birthdays in my phone and then they show, but that's what I'm trying to avoid...going in a resaving everything I've already saved.

My problem is I get repeat birthdays in calendar if I have their birthday saved in my gmail contact and they also put their birthday in their facebook profile. You think this smartphone would be smart enough to only display the birthday once, especially when the FB and phone/gmail contact is linked.

Heya, for some reason my galaxy adds 2 hours to the events from Facebook. Is this something I can fix on my own, or report to Facebook or Samsung?

Hi all,
I also faced the same issues but no problem when reached the normal web site. I don't know what its belongs to, i just send a bug report to fb dev team and hope they can have a look. Is someone here not using SGS but Froyo installed device and have a try?

Facebook, Yahoo Messenger and Skype suck balls compared to the iphone/ipod versions

For facebook profiles you have to use Facebook application first, it'll ask you whether to sync with you're current contacts or not

go to contacts... Then choose the contact you want and edit it. On the edit screen press the option button, the one next to Home button, and an option will come up "join" click on it and choose other contacts you want to connect it to

I have my Note from a week now and I love it,but my last phone was HTC Desire HD,and dare I say that HTC have better personalized their phones. For instance when you add a new contact it automatically suggests a fb contact to merge. This does not happen with the Note,when I deleted a contact and entered again I couldn't manage to merge them again and to put that person fb picture on his contact.
I know that there must be a way,and I am a person that has changed many phones but this is the first time that I thing that Samsung does not have very user friendly system compared to HTC.
THANK YOU IN ADVANCE.

Go to the contact and press 'join contact' and select the contact you want to join it to. Done.

Hello all,
In my stock messaging app, many of my contact pictures show a weird image next to the contact name.

Can anyone explain why that contact picture appears?
Thank you.
The phone or the silhouette?

It means you haven't assigned those contacts a photo

I am talking about the images of the phone with "SMS" on them, not the silhouette of the face.
Why does this occur for some but not others?

Have you ever had the SIM card in a Windows phone?
I had a windows mobile phone 3 years ago. But I have changed sim cards since then. I just got a new micro sim for my nexus 4. The issue started a couple months ago on my Samsung captivate. Now it has carried over to this device.
Any ideas?

Do you use GroupMe? Pretty sure this is the cause of the issue. I think GroupMe assigns people with dumphones that icon in conversations. If you choose to sync GroupMe contacts with your phone contacts, I think your phone will display that icon for them.

This was the issue. I simply disabled the sync of group and contacts, then reset the app.
Thank you so much for your help.

Hi All
I would like to know how to sync my contacts with Facebook. I need the profile pictures as contacts' picture.
Thanks for the help in advance

best sync app i know of

HaxSync is hands down the best contact sync for facebook. It will let you pick how accurate names have to be (similar spelling or exact, and everything in between), cropping the face, if the picture they have is too big and all in HD (no low res pics). Also lets you sync facebook calendar and contacts birthdays into their contact card and their timeline statuses.

Thank you all. Why Facebook does this sync? Isn't there a setting for that?

There's a LOOOOOOONG running issue between FB and Google over all of this...Google it for more info as it's too long to get into here!
Just a quick question..
Does these apps incorporate all those Facebook contacts into our phone's contacts which aren't there at present?
As in I have a number of Facebook contacts which aren't on my phone and i don't even want them to sync.... Just want the pictures of people in my phone through Facebook.

In HaxSync, there is a setting to only sync existing contacts, yes.

Ditto this. Plus, it is easy and quick to manually add/change a profile picture from FB to Google contacts. And this actually works better since on occasion some people insist on having a goofy @SS profile pic.

Hi, all
I am using Ubersync for facebook in my N4. It has imported all of my contacts but no phone numbers. How can i sync my facebook contacts with phone numbers to my Contact list. Normal sync thru the phone is also unsuccesful
