Hey guys,
i'm searchin for a solution for syncin ICS on HD2 with facebook, to get the contacts, pictures, information,...
My 2nd question is if the Facebook app and Facebook massenger work on ICS?
Thanks!!
Hey, the official FB app works on ICS, but doesn't allow syncing. There is a workaround though, take a look at this thread.
Motsrox, This is what I found when trying the link. "Invalid thread specified. If you followed a valid link, please notify the administrator" do you have the actuall link? Thanks Dale

Hey all,
Does anyone know a direct or indirect way to import FB friendlist to the x10 contacts, then merge them with Google contacts (Same as in HTC Sense).
I did manage to link 3 of my Google contacts to their FB account manually (Contact->Edit->Link Contact). Though, I still didn't get everything from this linkage, almost nothing other than the status. It didn't import my friends' display pics and albums, not even their special events like Birthday. I am sure there is a way somehow to do so. Does anyone know it?
Thank you
no one knows?
wait until 2.1 is out. 1.6 doesn't have this feature. my bro Moto CliQ, i also tried on LG GW620. But Nexus One can do this as its a 2.1 features.
That is good, I am looking for this feature too as I used to have it in my HD2. So now, I only use the SyncMyPix to sync the facebook profile photo and link to my contact.

Then I have nothing to do but waiting :s
I thought there would be a solution through Google's, Facebook's, SonyEricsson's pages.

Running a test on SyncMyPix right now
That was OK, thanks for the advice.. Still not quite the complete process I'm looking for.

i used to look for apps, then also link all my contacts to facebook and twitter manually.
after numerous amount of debrand, and root updates. and i never to backup. i don't bother to do it anymore. hehe.
previously, i even browse around all my facebook friends, take their hi res profile picture and put to xperia contacts, now i don't do it anymore. lol.
wait for 2.1.....
Hi,
Upgraded to the new version of Froyo 'Android 2.2 (FroYo) On HTC [03 Sep 2010] (V1.6) ' and when I go to add account, I choose Facebook, and after a slight pause, returns to the General synch settings page, but no Facebook.
Worked fine on previous release of 2.1.
I downloaded Facebook from Market.
Any advice would be appreciated, possibly I have the wrong version for the phone??
Same here,
Could this be because of a 'non-existing' link between the sync settings and the facebook app?
(Maybe because of some recent facebook app update?)
The facebook app itself works by the way, (notifications, widget, app etc) But it would be nice to sync contacts etc as well (A)
It doesn't work in mine either. (UK O2 Streak with official 2.1 update.)
Hopefully it'll be fixed soon as I liked how it automatically downloaded a profile picture for every contact in my phone.
A little reading may have a clue...
Althought I cannot confirm, it appears there's 2 versions fo facebook available for us.
Facebook for Android or HTC Facebook for Sense. I recon I must have had HTC Facebook before which does synch the contacts..
Anyone confirm this??? Anywhere to download and test HTC Facebook for Sense??
Facebook Contact Sync
Hi Guys,
I'm now in XDANDROID FRX04 with the latest facebook from the market and have the same problem, facebook does not sync the contacts.
Does someone make it work?
Does someone have a working apk of HTCFacebook?
Does not work for me either with XDAndroid FRX04 or Froyo X Red.
Right now i am using: SyncMyPix to sync Facebook contacts on my phone until this problem is resolved.
If the problem is between facebook app and phone contacts, perhaps it's because google blocked that feature. If it's between the app and facebook, no idea, it works for me.
Edit: NVM, I see what's the problem and dunno why
Keep it in the related thread
Excess threads muck up the forum.
Hi,
just tried my first android build on my HD2 (Darkstone superRAM). How can I link my own contact with my facebook account? I've got it managed with my friends contacts but. The thing is, I want to link my picture from the facebook account for the SMS application...
So can anyone help?
Don't think that's possible, try adding an image 'to you' on Google contacts. I was gonna try that myself but haven't really gotten around it yet. Please keep me posted.
tnx for reply... I will do that
This was discussed in a thread previously, where I explained the current situation.
Apparently, Google are aware that this has been requested, so we may see it in either an app or OS update. Fingers crossed!

Hello!
I just got myself HTC HD2 and upgraded to WWE 3.14.405.2 official ROM.
I also upgraded FaceBook app to 1.1.0.26 from Marketplace.
But I don´t have all my friends listed in facebook app. I have over 500 friends, but I can`t see all of them. I go to "Friends" Tag, and click "Search" then i input the person's name which i'm trying to search and there is no results come out. In the web I have this person in my friends list!
That`s also why I cant sync all my contacts with facebook because they are not in the list in conctacts !
Please help me! What I have to do?
Thanks!

Anybody having same problem?
Help needed!
Don't bother with the facebook app. It's so buggy its untrue.
The facebook mobile site works much better. Open opera and surf along to :
http://m.facebook.com
Cheers
Dave
Thanks. I have done this since now.
But I like, when my contacts have pictures and birthdays from facebook.
Thats why I would like to see it working.
But as I can see, then only thing what can help is new version of facebook app.
I have read that you never know is it coming or not at all

Ok I did some looking for you, but next time please use search. Go to this thread and this thread and check this thread out. One of the Face book apps has got to suit you. Then default app sucks, but then again what do I know I don't use facebook at all.
Thank you for reply. I have searched for a weeks already for the solutions and have seen these programs too.
But the thing is, that my HD2 syncs contacts with the original Facebook app. Right now I cant sync all my contacts with facebook because they are not in the friends list in my HD2 facebook app! To have their pictures and birthdays in my HD2 is why I need a working ORIGINAL app of Facebook

Sorry about that then, I meant no harm just see people complaining about the stupid default facebook app all the time, but usually non of them have even tried to find a better app.
This may be a really dumb question but have you tried logging out of your face book account in the app then logging back in? I have heard that has helped some people on these and other forums.
Yes I have tried that, no help
Also I have tried to reinstall that Facebook app again, no help
I don´t like this original Facebook app mutch, but since it is integrated to my HD2 and it has possibilities I like, then I would like it to work as it has to be !!!
Today I reinstalled 3.14 ROM to HD2, hoping it will change something, but nothing new. Nothing changed in Facebook.
Is there any fixed ROMs, that are similar to original, but working better then original?
If all you really want is pictures and birthdays in contacts, HTC Sense has built-in Facebook integration for that. Have you tried going to settings (in Sense not the start menu)-data services-click on Facebook under social networks and set that up? That's how I sync my contacts with my Facebook. Btw, for general Facebook browsing I highly recommend either the FIM app, the XDAFacebook app, or the m.facebook.com site as mentioned before.
Thanks for reply!
Yes, I have done this. From there I have from half on my friends pictures and birthdays already in my HD2 contacts. But in this list, what will open when I want to link someone with Facebook, there isnt half of my friends listed! Thats the problem! They arent listed in Facebook app too. Also I think, that the Facebook app and HD2 Social Network systems are connected to eachother. When one is not working then the other is also crap
Still no solution for my problem!!! Anyone?

i think it has something to do with your friends' privacy settings. if they have platform applications disabled, you will not see their name, photo, id, anything. i have some contacts that are not showing up either, though.
quick question: when you go to htc album, select any friend's facebook album, and browse images, do they download for you guys? i have troubles for 2 days with those now. i only have a cross.
Hi!
first of all i´m new here, but used the "search"... couldn´t find anything.
I´m running teamhacksung´s ICS on i9000.
is there a way i can sync my contacts with facebook? i mean no 3rd party app. i found a script in the nexus s forum, but couldn´t really use that.
regards
Malte
got the same problem and the i found that it is a problem in ics and the best way is a 3rd party app
I'm also searching for an "native" way, but only way i know it's using FriendCaster or HaxSync
Searching on the net some days ago, I found a working method,described here in xda forums (though I don't remember which one). Basically a dev recompiled the GoogleSyncFramework.apk (or wether it's named) to sync with facebook
Have you tried the app that lets you sync with Facebook Some google magic will certainly help you
"HIT THANKS IF I HELPED YOU"
Yeah currently i'm using friendcaster.
I don't like to have different apps for differen't functions, so i'm still looking Form a way Tor geht it into ICS
Regards
Too bad that google just did not implemented it in ICS.. Also too bad that facebook wasn't going to allow adjustments of the contacts via android contacts apk..
at least i thought that this was the problem...
