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.

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.

This has been bugging me since quite sometime..
Everytime i flash a new ROM on my DHD my google syncs all contacts back to my phone but everytime it asks me to sync them with FB.. And i have to manyallu sync the contacts with FB..
Its a real pain when you got over 2000 Contacts..
Is there anyway that i can let them sync automatically? Or any app which backups the contactcs as well as their FB connections..
(I just need the FB Pics synced with my phone contacts)
Sorry if this is the wrong section but don't know where to post this nor could i find any topic related to this..

I have a similar problem. With each ROM flashed I need to re-sync contacts (Facebook, Skype, etc.). I tried exporting contacts (through People app) and later importing them, hoping my initial sync would be recovered. Instead, I get duplicates. Can't Google store these connections in my Gmail account so that sync will only be done once?
Well i hve the same issue there is no work around.. i know of atleast.

Agreed. I miss sense some times. And all the options. Cookies home tab and max sense for the win lmao. What ROM are you running now?
Sent from the Bat Cave
this happens but for me the FB app usually does it automatically. FB -> Settings -> Contacts Sync -> Sync
you could try installing the htc sense fb app?
However, the FB app doesn't do all of my contacts an I think Google+ pics probably have precedence over FB ones in the default People app, not sure though.
Try facebook sync, free download on Play Store. I used it when I flashed a non-Sense Rom and it worked pretty well. Now I'm back to a Sense Rom so I don't need it anymore.
Edit: Here's the link of the one I used, but you can try other ones.

I had the issue when flashing incredible, did all the sync stuff and got duplicates and old contacts i'd deleted years ago, so i had to sms everyone to see who was who, very annoying. had quite a few "who is this" messages as old numbers were reused for new customers.
so im using the the cayanogen mod 7.1.0 and i have a problem with the facebook syncing the pictures of the contacts and the contacts it self.
when i used the sense it worked great and it keep looking for new pictures all the time
but now its not doing it and its keeping very old pictures of my friends
and its not putting the new ones
any idea what i can do???
maybe a app that can do it/>?
Hi,
You need to change the Sync Frequency to (e.g.) every hour. Or go to Settings > Accounts & Sync > Facebook > Sync now
Hope this helps
Its on sync now all the time and still nothing.. any other ideas?

Ok, try posting in the CyanogenMod forum, they are always very helpful.
AOSP doesn't do this well. I use an application called SyncMyPix
Hey everyone,
Just having a little issue with the Sync Icon on the top not going away / it doesn't finish syncing.
Any ideas for help?
And is there an app to see the sync activities?
Thanks,
Adam

I'm using Notes but the sync seems to finish alright.
Its confusing, and i'm sure its something simple
Found out it was Facebook related, seems the live feed hasn't sync'd for a couple days. (Accounts & Sync -> Facebook -> Sync live feed)
And when I try to sync it, it just keeps spinning.
So I guess my initial question is solved
Edit:
Seems uninstalling FriendStream is causing it and its safe to untick it
Hey Adam,
Thanks for opening this thread, I had the same issue with my One X.
Seems the DropBox app got stuck sync'ing in my case because I do not use Facebook or FriendStream.
After uninstalling DropBox the sync icon is gone.
I've noticed that Google Photos Sync is quite slow, or maybe it's too much data.
I was having the same issue..
Thanks to a few posts above, I checked Facebook Sync - It seems that was the problem.
Turned it off, as there is no need for it - I dont use any Facebook widgets.
i have a wildefire s with 2.3.5
Background data and Auto-Sync are both checked
i added my facebook account and all of my account data has been synced except my contact
it says ( Sync is currently experiencing problems. it will be back shortly)
i have removed my account and added it again but nothing happened.
please help me
need help
why no one answers my question
please i need your help
I think smth broken with htc fb. Some time ago fb updated his politic: u cannot sync now status info - just pics. Htc fb app had this option and cause of this smth is blocking whole app (they will for sure not update sense 2.1 any more). Had same problem with crossfire stock rom (and marvelous edition too). Install sync.me its good enough.
