I've got a missing facebook contact in my Android contacts, meaning I can't link the facebook contact to the google contact. The missing contact still appears in any other way of accessing my facebook account (web, Andoid app, etc) but just isn't there in my phone contacts. Anyone got any ideas?
Thanks

I managed to sort it out. I took off facebook contact syncing, removed my facebook accounts from facebook and friendstream, rebooted, readded the facebook accounts leaving contact syncing off and this solved it. I'd rather not have my facebook contacts showing in my phonebook any way...
occurs when a facebook friend has put somthing stupid in the phone number section instead of leaving it balnk
Hi,
I have a little annoying problem with my contacts. SMS from Google Calendar and from my mobile provider show up as if they where sent from a Facebook account. The facebook contact has bogus phone numbers ("ob" for landline, "07 no idea" for mobile). Both the messages from Google and my mobile provider don't have real sender numbers ("Google" and "Orange CH", respectively), so I guess the contact app thinks that "ob" is close enough to "Google" and "Orange CH".
I feel kind of stupid to go ask my facebook contact to remove his bogus phone numbers simply because my phone has a bug. Are there any other options? I haven't linked that facebook contact to any other contact, I wouldn't bother if that single contact wouldn't get synced to my phone, but I haven't found such a setting.
Same problem here.That particular contact exist only as FB contact.I would like to remove all FB contacts from my phone which is not linked with phone/Google contacts,but if I remove FB sync,all other contacts lose their pic from FB.
Hope HTC or Google will found a solution soon.

I have this too. And messages from voicemail all come from a friend called Abi!
I use Glympse a lot, and when I'm going to send a message and I select the contact, ALL facebook contacts are present and it's really annoying.
I removed the facebook sync on the app but it didn't help anything, so... Is there a way to prevent facebook contacts to show in 3th party apps like glympse??
I only want the contacts to be shown.
I have my Google contacts linked with my Facebook contacts, so their Facebook profile pictures are also their contact pictures. I just started using Verizon Message+ for texting due to it having Wi-Fi texting, but it only shows contact pictures if I have a picture set on the Google contact and not just via the linked Facebook contact. Is there way for it show the contact pictures that are coming from the linked Facebook contacts?

Were you ever able to find a resolution to this?
Hello.
Just got this phone 2 days ago. Already updated it to Pie, first Android One I have.
I noticied Contacts is not showing information about other apps inside contacts details, like Facebook, WhatsApp, Instagram, etc.
In a "normal situation", when you open a contact, these information will be present bellow contact details, but for me isn't showing.
Is Android One this way, or I'm missing something?
Thanks in advice.
Android one is not miui.
Contacts is a standard Google app. If works the same on any phone.
If you don't like it, you can find alternatives in the store.
I just checked and I could add various "IM" accounts to a contact, and they showed up when viewing the contact...

I know we don't have miui here. Isn't the point.
My own profile is showing with all information bellow my phone numbers, but all other contacts don't.
I noticied when I SEARCH for a contact inside app, it shows 2 or more duplicates, and the information is there. So, maybe is a merging problem, but all my contacts is correctly merged!
As far as I know, Facebook, Messenger, or Instagram contacts can no longer be sync automatically with any contact app (due to facebook policy)(unless your phone is rooted)
Whatsapp contacts should be automatically sync, but sometimes they doesn't appear or appears as duplicates.
The solution for me was to use Merge + app which "really" merges contacts so that Whatsapp informations appears in contacts details without duplicates
I don't know about other IM apps...
