I am facing a general problem with facebook integration in my new Legend. I've set up a facebook sync. When I link a contact in phone (google contact) with a contact from facebook, I can't afterwards see the albums of the contact or see the updates in people application. The link is working, because I am able to set the contact picture also from facebook, but updates and albums from facebook are not working. I tried also to hard reset the device and set it up again, but it did not help. Aren't you facing the same problem? I've opened a ticket to HTC, but I have to wait until they receive a Legend to their office :-D.
I'm signed in to the Facebook using Friend Connect application and in the detail of the contact in "People" application I can see updates for each connected Google contact <- Facebook contact. Updates are working for the Facebook status as well as for photos.
A cannot check it with Twitter, because I do not have any valid contact there
so, now the problem is solved. I started to have also problems with gmail contacts which refused to sync with gmail. Syncing was so strange, it was duplicating 2 contacts every time in gmail ... grrr horrible.
Then I deleted all contacts in gmail, also all contacts in phone, I cleared the cache for google contacts app. Afterwards I restored contacts from my last .csv backup in gmail and after sync all contact were back in phone. I lost all photos of my contacts, so I had to link most of them with facebook contacts. But it solved the problem. The integration with facebook is working again .. I was very happy yesterday.
Great
Thanks for the info
does anyone know of a widget or app that will allow me to view upcoming or all contact birthdays ?
thanks in advance
when you sync your phone with fb it'll sync the birthdays to your calendar as well so you'll able to see the birthdays of your fb contacts.

how exactly? i synced all my phone contacts to their respective fb account but their birthdays wont show in the calendar, i even tried syncing with outlook and back to the phone....
no can do...
On my G1 I used to use one called ebobirthday which was quite good. On the Desire, instead I have a slightly nicer solution - but only slightly nicer, because for some reason you can't seem to get at the synced FB dates
Sarch facebook apps for swissmenuo and add that app - it'll give you feerds for your FB events and contact birthdays. You can then add the ICS feed to your Google Calendar and use any of the calendar widgets to view just that calendar, or include it with your standard calendars . . . .

cant find it..
I'm using Google Calendar's function for birthday's...
(in Google Calendar) :
Settings|Calendars|Browse interesting calendars|More|Contacts' birthdays and events<--subscribe ^^
thanks guys,
unfortunately, i was hoping to steer clear of having data stored in the cloud. all of the birthdays are stored right there on the phone, all i want to do is have an app that displays upcoming birthdays in a widget.
used ebobirthday..works like a charm..it gets my fb friends birthday n integrated it into my HTC calendar...can even set alarm lol...

ebobirthday uses its own database to store birthdays doesn't it ? i was hoping to avoid this but it's looking like i'm going to have to cave in ...
after you set it to find all your contact birthday, there is an option to export the birthday into a csv file which i think u can save it and apply it to your google calendar or outlook or anything, i saved it but didnt try it, worried that it might mess up my calendar since i have ebobirthday on...hehe, you can try it and let us know the result
Facebook 2 Google
I used "birthday exporter" application on facebook, when you enter the application click "get your iCal file" then go to your google calendar and add the calendar (click on add, then "import calendar" and choose your downloaded iCal file) then sync from your phone to your google calendar.
Cheerz
thanks for the info, from the reviews, i see that some ppl says that it doesnt sync with android when there is no year added....
well i will stick with ebobirthday until everything is sorted out
Hello.
I have been using cm7 and loving it. Only thing I miss from original Tom is how facebook was tied together with Facebook and would provide updates and show recent picture.
Is there a way to have this on cm7?

No. One of the trade offs
Install Facebook from Market and turn on contact sync for existing contacts. Make sure the contacts on your phone have an email address to match with an email address listed in Facebook.
Thanks. Also I have seen Facebook picture sync apps are they any good?

I tried doing that, downloading Facebook and hoping it would sync everything but it didn't.
So I downloaded an app called 'Contapps' and through the settings you can sync your contacts with your Facebook account, and if theres contacts that don't automatically sync, you can do it manually.
facebook app will aloso sync if the names match exactly. I have mine all set like that and they sync just fine.
Mine seem to be syncing. They all show up as being linked under the contact, but for some contacts their picture doesn't show even though it is linked. Any ideas? And also is there a way to make it so those facebook pics don't show up so blurry in the caller id?
just upgrade to google plus and kiss Facebook Bye Bye.
If you need to see what person look like prior to calling them, you don't know them well enough.
Just edit the contact, and if they're already linked to their Facebook account, click the Facebook photo and choose to "Use this photo."
I have updated my nexus s to 4.03 (on two nexus s) but on one phone my facebook contact want to be linked
When I press "ADD ACCOUNT" can't add any facebook account to link with my contacts on other phone everything is fine.
Everything else is fine.
Google and facebook have some issues with the contact linking process. It can be hacked in but its not in there by default.
could you provide more informations about this hack please ?
it's not that there are 'issues'. google removed fb sync because fb refuses to let you save your fb contacts, so it provides a false sense of security, in the sense that the contacts always sync, but can NEVER be backed up.
if you want to sync fb, use friend caster. There's an app that will also sync profile pics, as well, but I can't remember the name right now.
Hey folks, I was looking for a way to sync facebook pictures to my existing google contacts; the way HTC and Samsung phones did.
I tried Contact sync for facebook; but instead of syncing pics to your google contacts; this app just downloads another set of contacts with no phone numbers.... I would have an entry with no photo from google contacts; and 1 entry with a picture from facebook.
This is not what i'm looking for.
How does haxsync work? does it actually retrieve facebook pics and add them onto your existing contacts??
Just wanted to find out before I purchase.
THanks!
Haxsync also download another set of contacts (to your phone's contact book) however with address, pictures, birthday, phone numbers, etc. Most of the contacts will be automatically merged properly, however you will have to do some manual editing (you know, since some people are on your contact as "sister" while on FB she may be "Jane Doe", Haxsync can't know that)
Haxsync has a lot of options to customize, and the new version has the ability to merge the contact photo from FB with Google contacts, which is rather awesome (no longer have to redo Haxsync when flashing new ROMs).
I highly recommend Haxsync.
I second haxsync. It works great and it also syncs your calendars from Facebook to your phone. So once you accept an invite to an event, it'll be in your phone with dates, times, and location.
