When I get a text from my provider, they show as coming from one of my contacts (I.e a friend). What gives?
have the same problem...
even when i delete that friend from friends it links with some other...
so stupid...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=669021
Also a few other threads.
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
Has anyone else had issues with twitter/linking contacts recently?
Since the oauth issues I've had problems with it - obviously twitter client Peep wouldn't connect when the issues started - when they were fixed all my contacts duplicated for twitter, so I cleared the cache on peep and re-set it up, but not when I go into people to link a contact to a twitter contact, when searching for a twitter contact it's blank with no contacts.
The online directory from People shows all the people who are following me, but when i hit the link button from the contact and select twitter, there's no contacts listed at all...
Any suggestions on what could be wrong?
Thanks
When I send a status message to Facebook from People Hub (and untick the Windows Live in People), it still sends the same status update to my Windows Live account and Messenger. Why?
SOLUTION:
I just remembered that this issue started to happen when I tied my Facebook chat to the new Windows Live Essentials 2011 (Messenger). Since the messenger syncs my Facebook chat (and also my status updates) with my Windows Live Messenger, the only way to solve this issue is to get rid of the connection to Facebook in your Windows Live account. Just tap your name in the Messenger and then tap "Show profile". From there, you can disconnect from Facebook.
Sorry,
But your post is useless and meaningless and nothing but detritus to the XDA community if you don't share your solution with us
Someone else may have the same problem as you, and search the forums for information and a possible answer.
If they're lucky sifting through the thousands of threads and posts they may find this thread you've started and think they've found a gold nugget, only to discover you were too lazy to share your solution
So please have a thought for others too

There you go (and all other members), I posted the solution. Sorry for my lazyness .

You don't need to disconnect Facebook. You can just uncheck the following

Hello,
On my Desire HD my twitter contacts will not show in my people list.
On the Twitter app settings I have selected Sync All under contacts and same for the Facebook app. However in the People list if I click on Menu > View, My facebook contact lists shows however there is nothing for my Twitter list.
I have synced account but still nothing.
Has anyone else experienced this problem and if so there is a fix?
I am trying to link my twitter contacts to my phone list and I have to use the Twitter for HTC Sense as a workaround.
Thanks
After i update official Mango, I can't see my twitter contacts. I could do it with mango RTM version and I create group and see only the news of group, idem to facebook. Now with official Mango it's not possible.
Look in People Hub/Settings/Filter my contact list. It looks like they defaulted to Twitter contacts off for the official release, but you can check a box in the filter list that will show your Twitter contacts in the People hub.

Just saw this discussion... so apparently there is some issue beyond a filter default. On my Focus it was toggled off by default, but turning it on in the contacts filter works... for others that is not working.
Same here to me. People hub dont show Twitter contacts... But new feeds still works.
Never happen in Mango RTM before...
Same here

Hi hoaisonongame
My device does not show twitter contacts in the people hub since performing the upgrade. I get the tweets in the news stream but can't see the contacts.
Cheers

Yes I saw this but don't works for me in LG E900h
I was on the leaked RTM and recall it took while for me to get it working. I just looked at my phone, and sure enough, Twitter handles were not in my contacts. I went to the options and checked the box to add Twitter to my contacts (it must have become unchecked during my "samsung update") and that didn't work. I deleted my Twitter account from my phone, powered my phone off/on, added Twitter again, checked the box to add Twitter to my contacts and now it works again. It still shows that Twitter is syncing, but I checked a contact and it's there again. Sounds like part of the upgrade process screwed everything up, but I can confirm I got it working again.
Mine were showing, but then vanished.
I deleted the Twitter account from the phone, reset the phone, then re-added my twitter account, all are showing again - for the moment.
P.S. I have only used official updates
Dave
Only used official updates and my ONE Twitter (just signed up a few days ago) contact is showing.
Ok its done.
I deleted twitter account and then re-add but it didnt work..
Then I repeated deleting and re-add again. Bum, Twitter contacts appear now! Dont know why?...
Update on this... MS knows about the issue and is looking into the problem:
https://twitter.com/#!/WinPhoneSupport/status/119511004559323136
This is pretty much the same thing that happened once the betas were released.
You would add Twitter, for some people it took minutes for it to appear, for some it took days. Its got to do with some hangup with Windows Live, because Twitter is connected to your phone through it.
For most cases, if you just add your account and give it time, it should appear eventually.
what I did:
-deleted Twitter account
-rebooted phone
-re added twitter account.
all is well now.
Great, the trick worked for me! Thanks!

Error 500 is usually a website problem.
The Auth process takes you to twitter's webpage to authorise.
Try again in a bit, maybe the gremlins are running about the twitter servers

Same here

I just waited for a couple of days, and then all of my Twitter contacts showed up. Didn't have to do anything.

yea that's because they already fixed it by that time. the prior solutions were just workarounds.
