Each time I reboot my phone it asks me to log in to Facebook to "Sync Applications". It looks a bit suspicious and I already have Facebook Application installed and I am logged in there. Does anybody know which applications requires this Facebook login and why?
That is for samsung's facebook SNS features...
You can:
1. live with the annoying message at bootup
2. freeze the FB SNS app in TiBu
3. Sign in
It's to sync your crap from your phone to FB... and you have to sign in through the browser is opens instead of the app. I'm assuming because the update the FB app about every 2 days.

What's the difference between these two facebook icons. I do have the facebook app installed. I don't want it to sync with my contacts tho.

I'd also like the answer. I think the one on the left is the Blur Facebook option, but when I click on the one on the right, it doesn't do anything. At all.
I can't even get the facebook account (made by the facebook app) to allow me to log in. I wish it would though. As a google voice user all the facebook and twitter moto blur breaks contact pictures for everything but moto apps

I dont know why you have two options for FB, but it's suppose to be for your social networking for moto blur, and you can opt out of the FB contact sync.
So i got fed up with widgets and google voice not showing contact pics. So i removed my facebook and twitter account. But there is still no pictures where before when i would unlink a contact the pic would start working. But none of them work in these apps. I've tried resyncing the google contacts and still no pictures. What can i do short of wiping my phone? thanks

So this what i did to kinda fix the problem.
I noticed when i logged into my facebook account it would start loading up all the pics from my google acount (which is what i want) once it was done with that it started to replace them with facebook images which would make the widgets and google voice go blank again. So i just logged into facebook and waited till most of my pctures showed up then removed the facebook account partway through the sync. Now i have my google contact pictures in voice. Well most of them anyway. I guess it will do for now untill i can figure out a way to manually control these pictures. Damn u motoblur

If the pictures are from facebook they will only show up on your contacts. third party software cannot access facebook data, which is a decision made by facebook. It is not motoblur related.

Ah that makes sense but it doesn't explain my orginal problem that now that i've removed the facebook account none of those apps have any pictures (even though i do have pics with my google account) if i could just get those back and working fully id be happy

Maybe remove your google account and facebook account to try and clear all your contacts. Then re add your google acct and not the facebook account. Im not too sure.
Im not even sure if you can remove the google acct.

Nah i tried removing my google account its the master account and it told me to do a format in the system options. Im almost considering it but i need to get all the apps i want all orginized so it doesn't take me forever to reinstall.
I figure by now someone would have made an app or be a menu in the system for controlling contact pictures. It seems the mtoblur sync for facebook (because the offical facebook account can't be used on the droid x) and once its synced just says its the contact pictures now and doesn't give any option not to turn it off. I really do like the status updates when people call but id rather be able to see contact pictures on my homescreen.

Try syncmypix app
already formated but maybe i'll look at that app this time around for syncing some of my pictures, do you guys know of anyway that I could sign into the facebook moto blur account and not have picture synced? because isn't that the only program that will show me status updates when someone calls?
The problem is that touchwiz has integrated facebook and system does not even recognize facebook app and therefore u end up with 2 separated apps that don't work together.
the facebook app from the market works fine, including sync (as of the update today)
go into facebook, settings, sync settings
The facebook app from the market is working fine for me as well, use it all the time, never had an issue with syncing on it yet. Good luck.
The facebook Touchwiz app is from samsung and has nothing to do with the Facebook app from the app store.
What TouchWiz app? You mean the feed widget? Why do you even use that? It's useless to begin with. Try the fb app from the market.

Facebook is integrated in touchwiz and works fine, syncs evens and contacts. Facebook app from market also work fine BUT when u enable sync there I get 2 extra linked contacts for every facebook contact that I already have. So the app and touchwiz don't work together and I had to disable app syncing....even under account you get 2 facebook entries
Just tested and removed integrated account and app sync didn't work correctly. I ended up without pictures, and 2 more Unknown entries. If you disable app sync and enable intergated then things work, but you are stuck with 2 facebook accounts in phone instead of one, and does have to sync updates.....
Whenever i try to sync my facebook account or go into my contacts i get the error "the process android.process.acore has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again". I get this everytime. What does this mean and how can i fix it? Thanks in advance!!!
if you removed the twlauncher that is your problem. the facebook under the intergraded contacts is tied into tw. I have a facebook under other accounts that I can never get to open so I just do with out linked contacts lol
Sent from my Samsung Fascinate using XDA App
lol yeah i put tw back on and all is well now
So, if you remove TWlauncher, does that mean you loose the ability to sync facebook contacts to google contacts?
yes via the integrated facebook contacts
Sent from my Samsung Fascinate using XDA App
This just started for me too, but I couldn't figure out what was causing it. How can I disable the Facebook syncing attempts that cause this? Is removing the Facebook sync account enough, or do I have to disable another apk as well?
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
just uncheck contacts under the facebook account in settings or remove the sync account all together
Sent from my Samsung Fascinate using XDA App
Actually, scratch that. Ever since I got a replacement Fascinate, the integrated Facebook syncing refused to sync my Facebook contacts. I tried everything possible, but it wouldn't work. Since it wouldnt work anyway, I figured I'd just disable it along with TW, but I decided to enable the TW launcher again, and now I see it's syncing properly now. Go figure. Well, since it's working now, I guess I'll just leave TW enabled, since I want my Facebook contacts to sync.

Click to collapse
I'm simply getting a terrible lag where it never opens my inbox. Very frustrating.

nobody else has this issue with gmail app?
I'm having the same issue with the e-mail program. I have set up my exchange account, and it displays correctly in the widget, but if I try to open the app, it force closes. Is there a way to uninstal the app and reinstall it? I have tried clearing all the data and recreating the account. Many thanks!
surprising to see no one else has gmail app issues with second account as i have tried on 3 G Notes and all force closed.........strange coz nobody tested this wanted feature or busy about bragging about pentile matrix (even though you don't know what it is)???????!!!!!!!!!
For the dual count I don't know but it seems for me Gmail app have a stange behaviour. After quiting a sleep of the phone, gmail lag sometimes before opening...
Maybe there's a link between our problems.
