Hello,
i am an android noob and this is my first post on the forum.
i have an htc desire which i upgraded to froyo. I see that it can synchronize facebook birthdays with your calendar.
unfortunately, i cannot activate that option. i have facebook for htc sense for contact sync and that works fine. i also have a standalone facebook application (only the HTC sense one is synchnornizing).
If i go to menu/calendars there is no option to add facebook, so i am stuck
can anyone help?
Anyone?
Is it too easy?
What software version are you running? This is currently only available for 2.2 (Froyo).
I am running Froyo.
Anyone please?

Hello all,
i'm running root with leedroid 1.7.
now i've used facebook on i believe defrost and i had some great sync options like, sync current contacts, which I'd like as to be honest a lot of my friends on fb are through a sport I play and we don't speak outside of the sport, so I don't need everyone listed in my phonebook.
the default facebook app in sense and the one on the market both have either sync or don't sync.
Is there a special fb apk I can use, or is this a strange sense limitation. I have twitter running too and I have the options I mentioned, but not for facebook.
TIA
Luke.
Hi,
I am a bit confused with the data sources used for the HTC sense facebook app and the "official" facebook app. The story:
I used to have the normal, facebook for HTC sense. I do not remember if there was another facebook app in the application list (standard 2.1 ROM).
I used to have my contacts in there and could link them to my Exchange contacts. When the latest version of the facebook app came out, I installed it and it worked fine. I did not try to link contacts for a while.
Recently I discovered that there are some of the contacts in the facebook app that are not in the list of linkable contacts. I suspected that the official and the HTC app used different datasets. So I tried to open the HTC version without success. I could not find a link to it, only to the official app. But both are in the application list. Also, in the market, I cannot uninstall the new app completely, only remove the updates. I have done this, and also removed the facebook for HTC sense account, to reset and re-download all contacts from the web.
When I try to reinstall the account now, it shows me next to flickr etc a facebook and a facebook for HTC account in the list, but I can only create one for the HTC version. I did this, but now, the list of the contacts is empty when I try to link exchange data to facebook contacts.
I can reconnect facebook before an after the update to the online version and download the contacts which will be shown in the actual application, but the "Link to" will not show any contacts anymore.
Any suggestions?

If you don't feel like removing battery to find the download with your S/N. The system gave me the following URL:
http://94.136.51.200/download/Driver//HTC Wildfire/setup_3.0.5422.exe
I know it says wildfire, but it's for desire aswell.
TY found out myself, but the server have been given me a not working link.
Btw. you can see the serial number in the settings menu.
New 3.0.5422 does not sync with Lotus Notes
The new version 3.0.5422 does not sync calendar with Lotus Notes, the previous 2.0.33 did. In the new only sync with Outlook calendar is available Desire 2.2 unrooted.
Palle.
Thanks for the heads up

HTC Sync 3 missing feature?
In 2.0.33 it was possible to do a repair and overwrite information on the Desire. I have yet to find this feature in 3.0.5422
My first sync with Outlook resulted in the duplication on the Desire of most of my contacts and nearly all of my all day events in the calendar.
Anyone know of a way to remove contacts and calendar items on the phone without a hard reset?

i'm struggling to find how i set the sync interval on the new version too. any ideas ?
Hey Guys,
if I conect my contacts with HTC Friendstream (Facebook) ,
in note get something like that:
<HTCData><Facebook>id:100000849848114/friendof:100000101543752</Facebook></HTCData>
When I tried to delate it,it get back to notes after a few seconds.
Any Idea how to delate that ?
Thanks

Hi! I think it should not be deleted, because Facebook for HTC Sense uses it to link Facebook contacts with contacts from other sources.
If you don't want it, then don't use Facebook for HTC Sense, meaning disable your Facebook for HTC Sense account in Accounts and Sync, so that it doesn't get re-added.
Yeah, but it was for 3 days the first time there.
before there wasn't it and it also worked with Facebook :O
There is a difference between the connection of contacts with Facebook for HTC sense and the normal Facebook app. I think that the normal Facebook app does not use the note field.

Hi
Miui_Au is fantastic and I have never had a problem installing or running this ROM.
I installed MIUI_Au v4 2.2.24 Beta, as under Applications the second on the list is “Calendar Sync fixed”
The Calendar Sync is very important for me as all my work reminders are stored on my Google Calendar. I see the Calendar Sync is now fixed. How do I activate this on my phone? When I go to Settings/Accounts and Sync, my Google account does not show Calendar Sync.
I expect there is something very obvious I should be doing.
Thanks.
Hi
Bumping this up as I'm sure someone knows the answer
Thanks
Check your settings in Calender as it will show what accounts are syncing to your Calender. There is also another release of miui-au 2.3.2 so maybe just flash the new rom instead.
