update intervals of facebook linked profiles?

Hi,
I linked some contacts with facebook (Not with the "Facebook app"), but the standard linkage that comes with the phonebook.
How do I check/set when it should automatically update the info, ie: picture,status etc.?
Thanks

As far as I know you can only have it update in 2hr intervals or manually, to switch between these two options
SF3D Contacts
--> All People
--> 3rd Icon at the bottom of the Contacts page( 'Man hiding behind a clock')
--> Menu
-->Data Connectrion setting

Exactly what I was looking for, thanks !

Wondering if interval of updates can be manually set by registry tweaks. I even tried to find where it can be but found nothing yet...

Anyone know why I suddenly don't have the third icon at the bottom? It was there before...
Whenever I try to link people to my Facebook account it doesn't work either, it just goes back to the contact info page

Did you install a background on all tabs cab? some of them screw up facebook integration. There is a fix for it out there.

Yeah, I have that installed. Could you give me the link to the post with the fix or maybe the fix itself?

Here is the fix.

Favourites Widget

Morning all
I have linked many of my contacts to facebook and then onto the favourites widget on 1 of my homescreens. Thing is on my HD2 it would change my contacts photos when they updated theirs on facebook. Its not done that now this time. I went into the people program and had a look at updating but it just doesn't seem to pull their new photo down and i have all the usual stuff in sync menu turned on.
Anyone any ideas?
thanks in advance

its not updating. You need to remove facebook sync in the settings and then to re-add. After a while, pics are updated!
This was already posted somewhere here in the forum.

Messages Widget?

Hi
Can't get my email to appear in the messages widget on motorola defy (only had this phone for a week). Only get a notfication image of new mail in the status bar. Is the messages widget only for texts?? or should you be able to read your new mail via the widget?
Thanks

Do you use Gmail app from Google? You have to add your e-mail account to Motoblur. Also disable original Gmail sync or you'll get notifications twice I think.
[edit] That's if you use a ROM with Motoblur, I don't know if there's e-mail support in deblur ROMs.

Hi
I thought I had added it, my google account appears in the accounts as " other account" below the motorblur account with all the twitter, facebook etc.
Have I got it in the right place?
( you can tell this is my first smartphone )

Do you have Accounts or other apps from Motoblur like Social Networking? Stock Motorola software is different for various regions and might come with or without social features called as Motoblur. If you don't have it then Messages widget works with regular text messages only, I think.

No I don't have accounts for any of those social networks like twitter etc.
So I suppose I am stuck? And won't be able to have the e-mail displayed within the widget?
Thank you very much for your replies and help though.
I've figured it out and now get email in the messages widget. I hadn't realized there are TWO seperate accounts one for G-mail and one for E-mail. It's quite confusing for a smartphone virgin, but what a cool toy

[APP] See contact's latest status on twitter, facebook and more?

Hi!
I've been googling my ass off searching for an app for android that can display my contact's recent statuses.
What I'm looking for is something that supports me placing a contact as a widget on a homescreen and then either automagically or by touching the contact I can see his or her latest status wether it be from Facebook, twitter or something else.
Has anyone seen this anywhere? Does it exist?

[Q] InfiniteView.apk What is it and can it be deleted

I i want to delete InfiniteView.apk, is this needed for anything?, and what it is for, i believe is a higher resolution and animated visualization mode for the contacts, but if i want the contacts in plain mode and save space and memory, can i delete it without problems?
thanks

the the little "infinity" logo u get when u press on a contacts picture, and it shows up all of there info, like extra numbers, emails, address, stuff like that. by all means get rid of it, but u wont be able to see or edit contact details without it (i think)

No you can't, without it you wont be able to select a contact to call I believe; I removed it a few months ago and you can restore it after you remove it so I suggest you download titanium backup and then try using it.

Thanks

Yeah, it definitely messes up your contacts and stops you calling from them.

whay about facebook in infinite view, if i delete facebook, will there be unusable facebook icons on infiniteview?

You can delete anything Facebook. As long as you don't need Facebook. Before flashing any ROM I always delete Facebook stuff. You can always install the app from the market and move it to your SD card, but you won't have any integrated stuff. Or just use your browser.

i mean because i opened infiniteview.apk and saw facebook icons there, if i dont have facebook installed, does this icons appear in infiniteview somewhere as buttons or anything?

You can sync your Facebook friends' contact details to your phone's contacts. Maybe that's why there's Facebook icons in there?

Thanks, i wonder if the facebook contacts sync will stop working if i remove facebook integration and i only leave the facebook app.
