Hm, I have seen this issue on stock non-rooted Desire with OTA Froyo and on other HTC Froyo based ROM-s.
If you click on the contact picture in Messages app for instance, you get the QuickPopup. I remember on Eclair, there was a Gtalk button if the person was online, so you could chat him up with a click. Now, there's a second Dialer icon If i click on the 2nd Dialer icon, there's a popup to choose an action, but no Gtalk in there. Any ideas ?
Nothing ?
Wow, I post a real issue not already beeing discussed and no replies. Guess its more convenient to reply to 9123 topics about same **** posted every day, when n00bs arent bothered to search.

I have gone into the contacts and set my sim contacts as inactive, yet when I open the contact list when creating a new SMS, all my SIM contacts are there... this is really really annoying. I can not for the life of me figure out how to disable this.
I've had a G1 for the past 1.5 years, rooted and running custom roms, so I know this has to be a snake in the grass waiting to bite me. Can anyone lend a hand?
Sorry if this is a bit hard to follow, long day
And yes, I have searched.. again, I know this is probably right in front of my face.
same problem here hopefully gets fixed in and update
same crap here another two annoyances from the stock sms app is no led and if text are sent in the same minute they get outta order
I cant stand how you can sync your facebook with only the contacts that are in your address book. But then when you go to text someone is shows everyone from facebook as a option to message. I just want it to show the people in my addess book. is there any way to do this. Have it sync just your contacts with facebook and not have everyone and their mother show up in the who to message list?
go into contacts and press the option menu,then view. disable the t-mobile one contacts too. because t-mobile keeps all ur contacts too...
i had a similar problem, hope this help tho...

it still ends up coming up when you search for the name in the sms app or other apps thats just to clear it from the phone app
This phone handles syncing strange. I cant wait till its rooted so i can put a Cyanogen rom on it. Even when i delete all the tomobile contacts. It finds a way of bringing them back.

This, 1000000000 times this. If I turn off veiwing facebook for mytouch contacts in the address book it still shows 100000 people form facebook in the sms part when i go to send a new message.
Yes... the syncing on this phone is indeed weird and annoying.. it was cool at first seeing everything pool in and popup without entering any info.. then it went awire , so I hit the killswitch on the whole operation. I know this isn't an answer to the problem, but maybe u can do without syncing until the froyo update comes next week (wishful thinking) ? Or do a hard reset and resync everything over slowly
No way I could find to not see all your contacts as is described in post #1. Dowload a full-featured sms app.

Handcent or Chomp. I prefer the former but have not used the latter much. For all new Android users reading this...please use androidtapp.com for reviewing apps. If they have reviewed the app, it is very thorough, including screen shots and an overall rating. This also gives you an idea of what the app can do, especially in comparison to a stock app so you don't have to frumpenuzzle with it yourself.
Just a word on handcent. I can not stand the way it looks. Its a blatent iphone look-a-like

Switch the skin to the Hero skin.. I forgot it even came imitating the iphone since I always had it with the hero skin on my G1. When I installed it on the slide I was like aww wtf haha. I also have it with no bubbles or or handcent type bubbles.

Ill check it out, after I installed it on my G1, I opened it up and RAGED cause it looked like the iphone and immediately uninstalled it.
I apologize if this has already been asked but how can you get your contact picture to sync w Facebook pictures? Is it available on custom roms?
Ok i have now rest the phone to stock and linked facebook for htc sense and i still cant get my contacts to sync with facebook pictures. A search didnt show much for the evo.

I can;t link anything since I'm stuck as a junior member (for now), but from what I've read this is a Facebook issue and not a Sense issue. Something about Facebooks protocols changed recently and seemingly behind-the-scenes. Until the application is updated it probably won't work.
really, that is quite disappointing.
Try this, be sure to read my post.

Try to delete HTC sense from your Facebook apps on the website?
USE THE F'ING SEARCH. Seriously, this problem has been going on for a week now and there are threads with this problem in the title and mentioned 1000 times. Stop being so lazy and looking for spoon feeding of answers.
I seem to be having an issue with the facebook app.
If you go into the newsfeed and scroll all the way to the bottom of the current list of post, when you click the "older posts" button, nothing happens.
I have tried on 3G and wifi, no difference. It looks like its pulling the older posts (little circle in top right hand corner turns) but none of the older posts show.
This problem only started recently.
Facebook or Friendstream? It's well know that the Facebook app for Android sucks I'm using a mixture of Friendstream and http://touch.facebook.com
No its in the Facebook app. I dont use friendstream.
Oh just to add this has nothing to do with the froyo updates. I have not yet updated my phone.
Yeah, Facebook put zero effort into that app. I NEVER open it as it just plain doesn't work and is almost featureless.
Nobody else having this problem?
Yeah I am having the same issue.
I have the HTC Desire which recently upgraded to Froyo and put it down to that, but if you haven't updated yours then I can probably rule that out.
To add to your issue the last 2 posts that I have always seem to have been posted at Jan. 1 at 12:59AM as well, even though I know for a fact that it isn't.
I am almost positive that it doesn't show (and never has) all the posts that it should either. I think the others are right, facebook have never really bothered their arse spending any real time on the application and it shows at times!
Looks like I will be installation the stock facebook and either using the market version (is that any better?) or the mobile web version.
So, i've searched and searched and search. Either the answer is burried in some lost 8,000+ reply thread where there are 400 different conversations going on, or i'm just missing the blatantly obvious. Before creating this post, I also clicked through the suggested search results that open above the posting box. Unfortunately, those were no help as well.
I can go into each individual contact and make it manually change over to their Facebook picture, but that is 200+ people to do that for.
With the exception of having an arrowless keyboard, and this issue, i absolutely love the rom. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Currently running SuperEvo-V2 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=781296) with cmsnap7.6 krnl (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=733099)
And even while i hopefully wait for replies to this thread, i am still searching.
If i find a resolution, i'll post it here myself. until then, i still NEEEEED help.

I am running stock 3.29 and this automatically happens. You may want to contact your rom developer.
It appears that ROM is based on CM6. If it's like CM6, you download/open Facebook app, log in, and then it will ask you if you want to sync contacts...by choosing "Sync existing contacts", it will then sync all the contacts that are your phonebook, and if you do not already have a picture attached, it should use the FB picture by default.
If that doesn't happen...contact the ROM developer.

Yea, went through that step multiple times. No change.
Even tried an older apk of facebook to see if it might be a problem with the newest version. No change there either.
Pretty much going to ask in the developers thread. yay.
Hi
I am using 2.3.4 through Gingerbread V3
Wondering if you can install a different dialer, maybe there is a thread somewhere with dialers.
Why?
Because this one does not search my contacts for the letters entered on the dialer, very annoying.
cheers
fusk
T9 dialer. I use GO contacts to circumvent this. And also has a vibrate on connect from Sense roms.
Thanks, going to have a look at that.
Other suggestions are still welcome.
EDIT:
Just noticed it does not support Danish, neither does GO contacts.
That is a problem if their name contains æ ø å.
Also I noticed that third party apps since 2.3 no longer have access to the phone state, so your missed calls counter is going to accumulate. Most irritating. I hope Go team solves the it in the upcoming versions.
That'll most likely be fixed, but missing language support probably won't come right around the corner.
Btw. i'll try post this question in themes and apps, seems more relevant and might get more answers, so moving this to themes & apps.
