Currently when i select a contact in the "People" App, it says they are synced with:
Phone
Phone
Facebook
Facebook For HTC Sense
Firstly, is there anyway to delete the other "Phone" link without having to manually unlinking them?
Secondly, do i need my contacts sync all my contacts with both Facebook & Facebook for HTC Sense to get their facebook display pictures to show up and for facebook widgets to work?
& finally, is there anyway to get all my contacts to sync with google without having to re-add them all to my phone.

You can try contact analyzer which can be found in market. To find duplicate contacts.
For LAST question, you can export all your contact from your people and import them to GOogle, or you can setting up active sync.

I would suggest keeping the facebook for HTC sense sync , I tried not having that and contact pics were all blurry...makes alot of difference when you're getting a call etc.

Nope , you can keep htc sense synced and let normal facebook stay disabled thats what I do now keeps the amount of linked contacts to a minimum.

How do i update contacts that are linked to facebooks profiles pictures in the desire?
some people have updated their profile pictures in facebook but i cant get my desire to recognise the new profle pictures.
I would like see if is possible that when you browse phone book that you see facebook images on contact is this possible? I see images only on contacts which do not have phone contact added...

dont they update automatically when you sync with facebook?
thats what i thought but i couple of my phonebook entries that are linked to facebook contacts still have old profile pics, i was wondering whether there was a way to manually refresh the pictures.
You have to sign out of facebook for htc sense and sign back in.

Im try logout and login but do not help.
Im do next and work:
1.)Go to contact and view it.
2.)Go to "photos" tab.
3.)Click "Link Facebook profile" and select contact from facebook friends
4.)It will sync and update photos wit facebook photos.
I hope that this is good way to do this
Unlink and relink should also work.
Also if you in contact see Link 1 or something like this and not linked then this is reason you can also click on this link 1 and select facebook profile and it will link this contact together...

It doesn't work for me..My friends updated their profile pictures but the contact pics still show the old ones...I tried log out and log in fb again but still not working.
Sorry I should have explained better. Go to settings and then accounts and sync and then go to facebook and select to remove the account and then sign back in. it should update all your contact photos.

Hey everyone.
I have install facebook for android few months ago. After that i notice that my People's contact pic does not sync with facebook pic anymore. is there anyway to sync back the pic on update?
I did try edit the contact, select the pic and select facebook for htc sense.
That doesn't works.
Under watchdog app, i still see Facebook for HTC Sense but i can't launch the app.
go to
settings---accounts and sync----sync htc sense facebook....
or switch on auto update.......
hi
That didn't work.
as i mention, i accidentally install "facebook for android"
so currently it mess up with the htc sense facebook.
all profile pic for "people" will not update.
Is there anyway to install back the old "Facebook for htc sense"?
i have facebook for android but i also have htc facebook...........
installing facebook for android willnot affect the htc sense facebook....
apparently i found the solution
remove account in the sync and add back.
The HTC syncing with Facebook and Sense Facebook is not the best system, but neither are any of the others, generally if you are having issues with profile photos, an application I would recommend on the top of my head is called SyncPic which is very good and automatically downloads the profile photos of Facebook only, not with other networking websites...but give a crack if you are still having issues...

Hi Guys,
I my facebook contacts are not syncing up with the phone contacts in HTC DHD (2.3.3). I have tried manything , but nothing really worked.. Only thing i could do is to delete and re-add the facebook for HTC sense application everytime to sync the contacts...Any permanent fix will be highly appreciated
thanks in advance
Manu
Go into settings then accounts and sync. Make sure under the facebook section sync contacts is toggled.
I'm guessing you have tried this but maybe not.

have the same problem
any one found a soluton ?
This has been a known issue in DHD since Sense 2.1 update and others in forum have reported the same issue. The only solution is to remove the Facebook for HTC Sense account from Settings>Accounts & Sync and then add it again and let it sync.

Hi, after i got my new HTC One X (The old one had Display problem)
I can't find Facebook for HTC in Accounts & Synchronisation?!
Only the normal Facebook.
Setting the preferences back and Delete all accounts doesn't work.
How to get it back?
So completely stock and a hard reset done.
Firmware is 1.28??
to be honest no idea at the moment
In the friendsstream app....., is it there??
no worries about that.
since ICS, htc integrate (linked) their facebook for htc with original facebook app (katana).
just sign in and it will showing up on friendstream widget or app.
Pictures of some of my FB contacts don't show on People. Anything wrong I'm doing?

yes, but then when uploading a photo through gallery "share" with Facebook for HTC Sense the upload fails at 100% (every time).
on a probably unrelated note, installation of LinkedIn for HTC Sense from HTC Hub fails too

Most probably the contact is not completely sync the picture yet. It happens to mine too, after awhile the picture will appeared, no worry
Actually every since Sense 3.5, the Facebook For HTCSense is no where to be seen in the Account. Everything is done via official FB, but you still hv the function of uploading a picture via FB for HTCSense, and it works for me everything. Benefit of this is it allows you to tag ppl in picture but the official FB lack of this function
Kudos to HTC Sense

Same for me! I had to re-link some of my contacts manually...
It took at least 30mins.
Login and Passwords
In response to enyaj, may not help the OP.
Wow I have been having the same problem for some time now (FB for HTC Sense not linking up profile pics with contacts), and my wifes phone would always error on photo uploads) figured out that I changed the FB password awhile back to prevent a possible hacking video issue. If you change your password on FB and use FB for HTC Sense, you must go into: Menu> Settings> Acctounts & Sync. Then delete your FB for HTC Sense account. Then just add account (bottom of screen) FB for HTC Sense and login with the correct email and password. Bam all my contacts pictures sync'd with their FB profile pics, status updates and such are working also. Hope this helps.
I got the same issue .. and after googleing .. I found out that I have to unistall Facebook update ..delete my FB account from Account$Syncing in the settings .. and make a restart,, then add My FB again in Account&Syncing ..
Hi,
Does Cyanogenmod 10 sync twitter/facebook contacts?
In my One X contact sync is enabled for Facebook, google, whatsapp and linkedin, but no for twitter. In Settings > account > twitter sync is enabled.
EDIT: I was wrong about Facebook contact sync. Even though its listed under the accounts to display contacts from, its empty, no contacts are shown. But in case of twitter its not even listed under the accounts to display contacts from.
AFAIK you need a 3rd party app (in HTC Sense they use Facebook for HTC Sense and Twitter for HTC Sense to sync)
You should try FriendCaster Pro or HaxSync from Play Store (which is not free)

I was wondering how it was working on sense ROM's. So HTC apps are the magic ingredients there. I hope Twitter ad Facebook fixes this in near future.
Hi,
I have purchased HaxSync back in ICS for bigger facebook covers photos on my ARHD. I wanna try CM10 Nightlies, but I'm not sure whether it will sync my contacts' facebook photos.
Can anyone clarify this?
Or is there another contacts app that can provide same thing (with or without HaxSync)?
Thanks,
It will sync the FB contacts and photos both.
