On the Verizon model of Samsung Galaxy Nexus.... 4.0.2 unlocked bootloader Rooted.... On every other Android device I have had going to settings than Account/Sync was how I added Facebook to the contacts list including phone numbers. I recently tried this Modaco ROM guide to fix it. It didn't work.... Is this a well known issue that facebook syncing doesn't work on Galaxy Nexus? When going to settings account/sync I click add account I select Facebook and it just goes back to the Accounts/Sync window same thing every time i hit Facebook
Search.......

Hi again guys,
I have heard that the 2.3 update stops the Facebook integration with Contacts. Can anyone tell me if this is true?
One of the best features of this phone is having the little Facebook photo next to all my contacts, birthday reminders, status updates showing etc.
Will I lose this if I update to 2.3?
Thanks!
Matt
I use custom ROM 2.3 and Facebook photo profile still integrated with my contacts.

Try check yours account with HTC Facebook and Facebook and log-in again and sync all..
I really can't see why it would be any different from the custom roms i've been using. It still works for me I still get all the info from fb linked with my contacts.
Yeah iv noticed it is still there although in the previous rom i was using they failed to show up after a few failed syncing attempts but that just meant i had to reflash and works perfectly
sounds promising then. Thanks, I'll let you know how it goes

Samsung Messaging has a crappy theme but it's superior to the stock Messaging app.

Superior in what way?
Thanks a lot!
The standard samsung app is better than stock but graphically deviates too much from holo.
I immediately downloaded the application that you have shown me, but unfortunately doesn't work ... After having opened app it crashes.
In particular, he shows me the list of all messages (distinguishing read from unread) but when I try to go into a conversation stops everything.
I use GoLauncherEx on Samsung official 4.0.3 rom. When the application crashes, even golauncher crashes! For a few seconds the screen is all black (it show me only tray bar)!
I know that GoLauncherEx isn't optimized for ics but is the only launcher that lets me create folders in the program list (I have much application and I need it!).
Actually ICS isn't very stable on my device and I'm almost regretting gingerbread!
I can do anything about it?
Thanks again for your support,
I hope one day I'd help forum people.

That is very strange. Which firmware did you install? I installed XEO (polish version) and didn't get a single crash or problem what so ever. I had a few problems in rooting it, though (needed to wipe it first and re-flash the orginial ICS firmware before rooting to get the root rights recognized). But once that got fixed, everything was and still is perfect.
Or maybe it is because of the go launcher ex? I was using TW the entire afternoon (13.03) without crashes. At night I installed Apex launcher as system launcher and no crashes either (one day running), very low battery consumption and awesome looks. You can add the ICS Theme Pack from kovdev to get the ICS icons.
Hello element!
I've installed the XEO firmware, then polish, just like you.
I have not done the wipe but updated via OTA.
I had already installed GoLauncher. When I've upgraded I've selected Golauncher instead of Tw.
Currently I have encountered frequent application crashes and one total block of the system. The battery, to be honest, I can not tell if it lasts more than gingerbread why I used the phone a lot for various customizations.
I do not know if the problem is that I did not do a wipe.
If he continues to give me problems I do a backup. After I install the rom again.
Tonight I remove the battery and after power on. Tomorrow, we'll update on my test.
PS The biggest problem is GoSmsPro. it sends multiple messages at one time. If I send you a message, you will receive two. I do not know how to solve.
PS2 The root I did with Odin and had no problems ...
Thanks for the help,
Hello!
As I promised you I a write updates.
I solved the problem of low stability: I made a deepclean and then installed applications without syncing (I installed all the applications manually).
Now I have one problem, the phone crashes when I try to change the background. If you have any idea: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=23727272#post23727272
For the rest new rom does not seem bad ...

Hey, check it out: One so called Tim Hutt put the stock calendar, messaging, and launcher app in the market and they all work just fine for me. The apps are called "Android 4 ICS Messaging SMS", "Android 4 ICS Calendar", and "Android 4 ICS Launcher".
The only bug I have (and it's not a big one) is that the screen doesn't light up when you receive a text message... Perhaps this is because I disabled/removed the official Samsung messaging services though... If you leave the default services enabled, then the screen lights up like normal but you have to select a setting in the ICS messaging app to disable the message receiver because then both the Samsung app and the ICS app will both write the text message to the database and you'll have duplicate incoming messages. Just go to settings and scroll to the very bottom to see what I mean... Enable that option if you don't remove the Samsung services/apps.

Hello,
I flashed the rom last night. It is amazing! But there is some problems for me...
1. Problem:
I am now trying to sync my facebook contacts with my google contacts... But there is no facebook contacts syncing... No facebook id in the people's contact menus...
I used htc sense roms before and i could've sync the facebook contacts.
And there is no contact sync menu in facebook App's submenus?
So do you know what the problem that i have?
2. Problem:
I can easily use the "phone pad keyboard types with t9" but i can't find a second keyboard type other than the miui keyboard in the miui's settings menu...?
Is there a way to change the miui's orijinal keyboard type to phone pad type ?

For facebook you will need to download the facebook app or any other app that syncs your contacts. A reboot may be needed. If you want to sync your facebook contacts with whatsapp along with your phone contacts, let me know I'll upload an app for that.
Or you could manually input your facebook contacts
I didn't understand your second question/problem.
Edit: heck, the app I mentioned.... you can find it if you scroll down a bit.

First of all,
Thank-you for your fast response...
1. & 2. Photos,
As you can see from the screen shots,
I have all ready install Facebook App. And it's showned at Acounts menu. But in the contacts menu, there is only Google and Exchange Acount showing..
So, the people in my contact list have not sync with my Facebook or Twitter Acount.
3. & 4. Photos
I installed an. Htc keyboard App. From the forum as you can see, i have just wanted to change orginal miui keyboard to phone pad type..
I think miui must have 2. Optional keyboard as standard..
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA
That looks like miui ics. I haven't flashed that in a while. If I remember correctly there might have been problems with the contacts. Read the thread, yes, the 100+ pages or you can use the search function.
Before doing that you can try clicking on the sync off and then on to see if it resyncs and reboot if it doesn't show. If you already tried this then you can skip it.
With the keyboard, sorry I still don't know what you want to do. Coffee still hasn't kicked in.
Click on qwerty keyboard to see if that is what you want. But then again that should have been the default so you ahould have seen it.
If it is that you only want a dial pad, only numbers to show, that will show up in a few places, how to select that only, no idea.
Sorry if this is confusing, I just got up and coffee hasn't done its magic yet.
Edit: I think I see what you mean.
You want to use two different keyboards at the same time?
Or is it that you want to use only the t9/dial pad all the time?
The most I know is that you can change the theme for the keyboard, however, Im not sure if that is working in ics yet.

hmm,
i've just came at home and saw your reply...
i just want to use the dial pad keyboard style for all time... and i have used it with my old htc sense rom for along time...i installed an htc keyboard .apk from the forum as you see.. but miui doesnot have the dial pad keyboard style, it has only qwerty keyboard... am i correct?
i really liked miui, but the keyboard and the contacts sync issue is really important for me...
For facebook problem use (facebook sync application) is the best for now
and for the keyboard i don't get your problem but you maybe would to try perfect keyboard application

I flashed the icecoldsandwich-7.4.AOKP-signed rom from Lordclokan.
And it can do Merging or other things with facebook in the contacts menu...
So the facebook (or twitter) sync problem is only about miui rom...

I got the same problem as you did. I even tried the app I mentioned before, didn't work. Have you done a search in the thread to see if others are experiencing the same problem?
Gonna flash blinds ics to see if the same thing happens.
Same thing happened with bliinds ics.
If you figure it out let me know.
Regarding the keyboard, couldn't figure it out.
Edit: apparently its an ics issue.

Try HaxSync it works a lot better than the facebook app with syncing facebook contacts to your phone plus it also downloads a better photo from facebook than the fb app does.

Tried it, contacts started force closing, had to refalsh!! (
Hello everyone,
Just a few days ago I decided to start looking into rooting and flashing my Gio with a newer software. Only to discover that there's an amazing community out there, still putting in time into improving everyone's experience even with old-ish low-end phones that the manufacturers have already kicked to the curb. Really amazing stuff!
Anyway, I grabbed a recent Cyanogenmod 10.1 RC from Jenkins and flashed it to my phone. It runs incredibly smooth and I'm very happy with the result.
The only thing that irks me is the contact manager app included, I think it's called 'People'. It keeps on forcing me to sync everything with my Gmail account. Now I know this is just how Android was designed to work and that in the case of my Gio, Samsung created their own dialer and contacts. Is there maybe an App or a possible future Cyanogenmod update that will allow me to simply store the contacts on my phone without linking it to anything else, like in the old Samsung contacts list I had on my Gio when it was stock?
Cheers in advance!
I'd like to sync it to Google because I like to flash ROMs so if I wiped my data, just login back to GAccount and ur contact will back
But if u don't like it, just disable auto sync from settings

I just installed this on a Galaxy S3 SGH-i747 and it works great! smooth install and all... My questions is about Facebook, my calendar wont sync. As I look in my stock S4, there is a facebook account OTHER than the regular facebook account that says "sync apps with facebook" that the S3 doesn't have under accounts. The regular Facebook account just lets you sync contacts but not calendar or events. Somewhere I read that im missing S Planner from Samsung... Can someone please shed some light on Facebook Calendar sync with this ROM JellyBean 4.3 BeanStalk Build 4.3.1001 - 02 OCT ?
Thanks!
I'm not entirely familiar with the structure Google is using right now but Google doesn't all calendars and syncing contact photos, events or birthdays in from the stock app in Android. Some manufacturer or carrier branded roms have alternatives that let you do all of this.. Since Beanstalk is built from AOSP libraries and not the manufacturer, we know that we're going to have to find a third party app to handle these events from now on.
HTC had libraries built into Sense 5, and even more so in the previous versions that had Friendstream, Samsung does it I'm sure, but I dont use any of their stock bloatware.
Its got to do with app policies and your contacts list though, the Facebook app used to do it all but Google made changes, I can't remember if they introduced them in Ice Cream Sandwich or Jelly Bean. I use a wonderful little app to take care of all of that and keep my pictures synced. HaxSync
