Hi Folks,
Coming frmo a HTC desire - all contacts were stored in Google.. they used to show facebook pictures in contacts list on the desire - and birthdays etc were synched to the phones calendar - is this possible with the Arc?
Cheers,
Mick
Yes, the 2.3.3 update from SE brought facebook integration to the 2011 Xperia line-up. Contact pictures are available and fb birthdays show up in the calendar. Cheers!
how do i get them to work though?
opps never mind.. its working now.. maybe i hadnt sync'd properly or something..

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 ?
I stumbled over this topic when my sister asked me if her cousin was younger or older than her... My contact list couldn't tell me.
I have no clue why the on-board facebook app doesn't sync birthdays of contacts as well.
After some research I found EboBirthday, which does exactly what I want - however, even though it imports all of the birthdays, the export function only exports about 10% of them to my contacts.
I couldn't find any other app for that purpose, all of them just export to calender.
Anyone got an idea? Is this fixed in Froyo or Gingerbread so I just have to wait for a new ROM?
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 ..
Ok so I was playing with some roms and after some time I saw that my calendar widget won't show Fb appointments.
I went to the fb in xperia an saw that there is no calendar sync or contact sync only album sync.
I tried everything. I even flashed to the stock ics and nothing. Now my calendar app is empty. Help please o wizards of XDA!!!
Thanks in advance!!!
The calendar sync used to eat data. Was a pain in all the wrong places. LOL!
Do what I did. Go to fb and export all your birthdays to Google calendar. (Do a quick Google search if you're not sure how to).
Else you can use something like HaxSync to sync fb related stuff (contacts, birthdays, events). I use it to sync my contacts.

Great idea! Thanks! Will try!
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.
