Hey guys,
I recently got my new HD migrating from my old N95 but I'm having some problems with the whole syncing bit. All my content (contacts, calender and e-mails) are in Outlook 2007, my N95 had no problems syncing back and forth between my laptop and itself. However I can't seem to get ActiveSync on my HD and Windows Mobile Device Center to sync, it just says the server is not responding even though it's just over USB. The same problem occurs using bluetooth. Does anyone have any ideas or a fix, the laptop sees the device but wouldn't transfer even my contacts to the phone.
Thanks in advance
EDIT: Can a mod please rename the notice as there is a typo.
For anyone interested, ESet was blocking it >.<. I had to disable my firewall to get it to work. Anyone know a way round this?
Also my contacts are Surname, Forname how can I change this round for over 90 contacts?
Hi all,
I've just setup my phone to sync via microsoft exchange with my windows live account.
All is working fine except for my contacts. The calender, tasks & email are all syncing with no problems however when it trys to sync the contacts it counts upto record 101 out of however many it stops & I get an error with support code: 0x86000108.
I've searched on this & everything seems to point to a dodgy record. I've been through all the records & have tried deleteing various records with no effect.
I've deleted all the records from the device & tried to sync down from the server but it still stalls on record 101, like wise the opposite direction.
Tried deleting the activesync partnership with no joy.
Any thoughts would be most welcome as my contacts database is well & truely messed up
OK so have tried deleting the exchange partnership & recreating it from scratch.
The old error has gone but I can't sync anything at all now.
Error has changed to Support code: 0x85010014
Any thoughts please?
Come on folks, surely someone has some experience with syncing through exchange.
It clearly is syncing because I've now ended up with over 3700 records on my windows live contacts page & as this is above the limit it is effectively frozen.
I've now given up with windows live & gone back to using google calender & contacts which I must say worked correctly first time out.
It would be nice to have everything in the same place & use windows live as it is designed to be used but unless I can get this syncing issue sorted I'm gonna have to stay with google.
Anyone??
Hi all,
since the Mango update I can't connect/sync my Onenote Notebooks on Skydrive anymore. When I start the Officehub and move to notes it says "syncing" and then just the Officehub closes/crashes. Anyone else experience this probs and know a workaround? Is it possible to deinstall and freshly install the Officehub?
Thnks for any hints,
FB
Got it working. Just if someone runs into the same prob resetting Office under settings --> Office solved it.
Cheers,
FB
I have recently updated my Note II to Cyanogen 11.
It is working well except for one odd problem I have
noticed, which is that the new photos that I take on
my phone do not sync to Facebook the way the used
to on my previous Roms. The sync is definitely turned
on in the Facebook app, I have tried uninstalling and
removing the Facebook account on the phone, and
re-downloading from Play Store, and installing again,
and it still is not working. This is a minor problem, as
I can always upload the pictures individually that I want
up on Facebook, but it was convenient to have that
sync in the background, and I'd like to get it back.
Any suggestions on how to fix this?
Hello everyone,
My device is G4, LG-H815 variant and it's updated to Android 5.1, not rooted. My problem: there seems to be no way to import Facebook contacts to contacts list.
I have migrated all my settings and apps from my G3 using LG Backup successfully. The Facebook and Messenger apps work fine, show all my contacts, and are configured to sync contacts. I have also gone into Contacts settings and made sure Facebook sync is enabled. But no matter how long I wait (1 day), only my Gmail contacts show. There also seems to be no syncing option for Messenger.
Things I've tried to no avail:
- rebooting
- reinstalling Facebook and Messenger app and configuring them from a scratch
- restarting Contacts app
- unsyncing and syncing again
- removing my Facebook account and adding it again

I always turned Facebook sync off, I never use it [emoji14], but I'll try to give you some suggestions.
1. have you tried setting Contact to display in contact app settings to All contacts?
2. is the contact sync in the Facebook app settings turned on for all contact?
that's as far as I know in android syncing. if it doesn't work, maybe the other could help you. sorry!

Naturally.
Same issue
Thank god I'm not the only one with this issue!! I thought I was going mad. I just got this phone & not used to LG phones.
Okay, so I haven't done as much as you, I have uninstalled/reinstalled fb and msngr though & still nothing. When I select to see only fb or msngr contacts it shows none, only myself.
I'm slowly losing hope to see a resolution as this is the first post I've seen with this issue!
I will keep checking this thread Thanks for posting

I feel just the same. I can confirm than syncing worked just fine on my LG G3. With G4, it looks just like the Contacts app doesn't see my Facebook account for some reason, regardless of the settings.
Same thing is happening to me... Any of you with this problem have a second phone? I have an s6 with no sync problems for work in addition to my g4. My only possible thought is some how that is affecting my lg...? Hopefully someone figures this out ASAP
Been talking to UK LG Mobile Support today, their advice is to enable syncing from Facebook app's settings. When told that this didn't work for me, they said they're not aware of anybody having this issue. So, has anybody solved this yet?
Alright, here's the reason behind the problem:
Apparently Facebook no longer supports syncing for Android devices. Just like that. As confirmed by Facebook itself under a link I can't post.

Hey there,
Poked around a bit more...not sure that is true. Seems like a lot of internet BS generated from frustrated people with the same problem we are having. There are no concrete facts from Facebook or Google that currently support that theory.
On another note, this problem started happening on my G4 about two weeks ago, at which time it was synced to my facebook contacts prior...so, it may be possible a software update was pushed and this functionality was not carried over?
My current workaround (i'm not giving up on this, don't worry)...buy/borrow an older android device from a friend or off CL, sync your facebook, manually program the names of the contacts you need from facebook sync on that phone to your G4...I already tried exporting the CSV from my work phone to my G4 with no luck of carrying over my facebook contacts.

Facebook changed the api download most of the photo sync apps from the appstore they do nothing now

I spent three awesome hours last night pretending like it was 2002 and manually copying numbers from my work phone to my new phone since it is still sync'd with facebook...at least now they are permanently in my google account
Had the same issue. I uninstalled the FB updates to factory. Re-syncedb and set Facebook to manual updates.
Hi!
I know this post is relatively old, but I recently purchased the LG G4 Vigor. While at the Kiosk of my service provider, they transferred all my contacts for me. Bad idea!!! I spent the last two days trying to figure out why my Facebook contacts would not transfer. Furthermore, all the addresses were not transferred at all. So, I worked hard to find the problem. I simply had to Reset Factory data! . For some reason, when they transferred my contacts, it was interrupting the Facebook contacts from transferring. Before doing so, make sure you save all info on your SD card. I took out my SD card, for good safety measure. After the Reset, do not install the SD card right away. Open Facebook and go through login etc., then in your phone contacts settings, accounts & sync, add Facebook, then go to "contacts to display", click all contacts. Check your contacts folder to be sure. Do this before transferring your data from your SD card. Unfortunately, you will have to go through and delete those contacts, from FB, you don't want. At least they are all there, with picture and info! Hope this helps!!!
