For some reason only one of my Facebook friends is not showing up in my contact list, i have, in settings, set it to show all Facebook contacts. It shows all except one. I go into my Facebook app and it shows him as a friend...i don't get it... I've cleared out my log in through accounts and then set it back up, waited for all the contacts to be linked up again, but he's still not there... really frustrating... any ideas?

Yes! This is just the issue I've experienced too. One of my contacts doesn't show up no matter what I do. I've spent a lot of time playing with this. It's quite annoying. I think this is a problem on FB's side.
Well I don't know what exactly I did to fix it, but its working now... I went into my facebook albums to check out some pics and he was on the lost so I checked my contact list and he was linked again

I think sometimes if the names don't match up perfectly it doesn't find it...I'm sure you verified this already though.
Facebook Sync/Contacts/Messaging
I am having a problem getting my contact picture to appear in messaging as well as caller ID.
I have synced my Facebook account with my contact list, joined all of the contacts, and have the Caller ID default set to the Facebook picture.
However, all of the pictures in my messaging and when someone calls me comes up as the blank default picture as if they do not have one set.
The pictures appear in the contact list fine, and are all marked as default for caller ID. How can I get their pictures to appear in my messaging and my caller ID?
Everyone here needs to say what ROM they are using. HTC Sense does things different then cm7. sense 3.0 may do thing different then 2.1 or 1.0. Also are you using the "Sync" in the facebook application or are you using the accounts sync in htc sense?
I dont think anyone here has enough information to answer your questions at this point.
One thing you may want to do is add that one contact as a contact in gmail (if that is what you sync contact with) and see if that contact gets linked with the facebook person.
Hope that helps, and good luck

I've got the same issue, uninstalled re-installed still don't display and they used to.
have you tried going to the application settings?
then customize the style and enable contact picture?
maybe its disabled in the new update

I done that too, and I enabled large picture under the 'display contacts picture' setting. still no luck
in that case its probably an issue with handcent, itll probably get updated soon so keep your eyes open you can always leave a comment on the market?
You can add me to the list . I thought it might have been something I uninstalled, but doubt it.
Contact the developer of the app.
I got the same problem , only a few pictures works ...
It seems to work well with Chompsms, but i dont want those damn "iphone" bubbles
I'm having the same issue but I am doubting that it is due to Handcent.

I have my contact sync'd from Google and Facebook for HTC Sense on my HTC Incredible. Any SMS or MMS message I receive will show the contact image except the 10 or so contacts that I have in my Google Talk list. I have tried "un-linking" them but it didn't correct the problem. The same thing is happening in the original Messages application so that is why I am questioning the cause being associated with Handcent.
Any other thoughts about this?
I'm having the same issue. I recall I fixed this once by going into the contacts application and clearing the data. Everything synced up again.
OR perhaps I just uninstalled Facebook for HTC Sense and reinstalled it..I can't remember. Damn.
Yep..uninstalled FB from syncing, and reinstalled..takes a while..but they are all back in hancent.
Not sure what I did to cause this, but as of last night (didnt install anything..was just playing around with the phone) my contacts in SMS do not have their default icon which is typically their image from FB.
Any idea how to correct this?
I downloaded chompSMS this morning, and verified the contact images are pulling through correctly there...its the stock SMS app thats not rendering contact icons accordingly.
Thanks.
Running Fresh 1.0.1
Try to re-sync your fb account and once is syncs reboot. Sometimes it takes time for pics to display for contacts. Its happen to me where I see fb pic on people app and not in sms app but after a while fb pics show up everywhere.
Thanks for the input.
Just tried that and unfortunately that did not work.
Any other suggestions ?
What good is a smart phone if it can't walk and chew gum at the same time?
Sometimes my contact pic wont show up sometimes... Weird
Bumping this because I still can't seem to fix this. Flashed back to DC and same issue.
Deleted Chomp sms and no difference.
Anyone?

yea im having the same problem. some contacts show in sms no poblem but most just show the silhouette. also under contacts some show the correct updated facebook picture while others seem to be ones they had months ago and it wont update to the new one.
i did search online earlier and from what i can see is that its pretty widespread throughout android systems like hero, evo, etc... blah i want a fix
I have a weird recent issue where some contacts are showing up as '614...' rather than '04...' or '+614...', so they don't dial, even though the stored number is '04...' which dials fine. I noticed with one contact that if I de-lined Facebook it defaulted back to the actual stored number of '04...' - any thoughts? The Starburst ROM dev has not heard of this issue.
It's a known Facebook sync issue

Thanks guys! The thread is about HTC Sync corrupting Email Addresses in Outlook 2010 though, I searched Android Forums and couldn't see one about Facebook sync error, do you have a link handy or is that actually the right thread?
It seems to effect some contacts with phone numbers in their Facebook profile, that over-rides my contact details with the '614...' number that doesn't work. So i have to de-link Facebook for those contacts.
message deleted, wrong thread.

Here is what I did, this is only a partial solution:
De link the accounts.
Now select the account on your phone which has the correct number and now link it to the FB account. I think the account which is chosen first overrides the info in the "linked" one.
OR
You have to do this everytime you have such a contact:
dial the number from facebook. hang up once the dial screen comes into play. Go to your "call history", long press the contact, select -- Edit number before call (I think this facility is only on sense based roms, correct me if I am wrong), punch in the correct number and now you can dial.
kinda sucks but this is my workaround.
sounds like I'm not alone. so first of parent account overrides?

Tried going in to primary correct contact and linking, didn't work, will try the other way around.
edit, didn't work either, facebook always overrides.
Sent from my HTC Desire using Tapatalk
Try this, works for me (but not in the Sense Contact widget)
- Edit the contact in question
- Change the original number from mobile to fax
- Save the changes
- Back at the main contact view press and hold the 'fax' number and set to primary contact
- Edit the contact again and make it a mobile again
- Save changes
This should then show the correct format and allow you to ring the contact
If only Facebook would allow people to enter the number as they want, with or without international dialing code
Well as a workaround that actually works, thanks! At least I can hobble along now until this Facebook sync problem gets fixed. Any idea what's causing this or if it effects only some phones?
Another one here with the same problem. It's so damn annoying!

Facebook sync?

A lot of times my contact changes from a name to their number instead. idk why this happens :/ can someone show me how to reverse it?
ie:i type in my friends name in the smart finer or w/e. John Smith, but when i click enter instead of John Smith it says 999-999-9999. And now its staying like that!
You have tried rebooting your phone, right?
Is this how John Smith is displayed in "people" app in the drawer as well as in the dialer and your messaging app? What if anything other than stock are you using?
Are your contacts synced through a gmail account, facebook, etc? Or are they stored strictly on your phone?
Not exactly sure what the problem you're having but perhaps your settings might do this. Is your view "Only with phone number" checked when you go into view in the peoples app?
I did restart my phone but it didn't stop. It went away 3 hours ago then came back. The people are linked to Facebook and gmail if view have one. It is not view phone number only and The display is based on the name I put in my phone and not Facebook or gmail. I'm using standard sms and running rmk gingersense.

Check in your contacts and make sure you have area codes put in. I had a " John Smith " put in as 111-1111 when he called back it did not read it as him because Verizon always tacks on the area code.
Hopefully it is that simple.

You could try a no-wipe flash of the rom to correct a possible rom software issue.

hi,
i've upgraded from a DHD, after syncing with facebook and putting my details in, the contacts in my contacts app dont all show the facebook profile picture.
Some do.....unsure why, but not the majority......
Never had this issue with my desire and my desire hd
i could wipe the phone and start again, or remove facebook data and then re-add
i'm also wondering about how HTC actually saves this data also, like since its related to my gmail account, some of the images may have saved to some of my contacts that way, making me think that they have the facebook profile pic attached, when in fact its not, its google saving this image to my address book, rather than the phone receiving this from my facebook contacts (yeah i know, i'm not too good at explaining this)
Bottom line, my phone address book includes facebook contacts, many of which dont actually have any profile pics attached to their contact on my phone.
PS: I'm just gonna wipe and start again, and see what happens
it happens on mine too. was wondering~
any solution so far?
I did a hard reset, it helped a little as now more of my contacts are showing facebook profile pic, but still not all

I believe this is an ICS (Android 4.0) issue. Get Haxsync from the Market (argh, Play Store). It resolves this.
