On my TP2 Facebook integration is fine for most contacts but for some of them it can't seem to get their profile picture. Its bizarre because it used to be able to get it for same users when I first got the phone.
Anyone else having this problem?
you have to keep refreshing it like a million times until they all load. its stupid, but that's the only way i got it to work
Yip, i just forgot about mine, and eventually the pictures were there.

I remember seeing that in the registry, I believe. I think it was in hkey-user/software/manilla but i'm not positive on that. one of the values was for the facebook user login name.
I have the same issue.... Only a few of my friends don't update
I have one person that won't update. It's because of thier privacy/profile access setting on facebook. That's the only thing I can figure out.
Facebook issues
Wondered if you ever found a solution on the FACEBOOK photos.
Maybe I just have to wait longer.
I actually had more photos yesterday than today.
All other fuctions appear to work OK...but photos and INBOX just never stop fetching.
Thanks

Thanks mate
I might just have to let this problem go...its such a small thing but it's really pi**ing me off.
I've rebooted the phone on several occasions, ive logged out and in of facebook several times, nothing seems to want to budge the problem....ive even mailed htc about it !
Oh well
Thanks anyway
have you tried updating your facebook contacts in the online directories, in the people application? ive just done it as i was having a problem with no facebook contacts showing up and its now working.
Has anyone have this problem? Before I updated the app to the latest version (v3.0.4) I had my contact picture to their text message, now their no picture.

I've got the same issue, uninstalled re-installed still don't display and they used to.
have you tried going to the application settings?
then customize the style and enable contact picture?
maybe its disabled in the new update

I done that too, and I enabled large picture under the 'display contacts picture' setting. still no luck
in that case its probably an issue with handcent, itll probably get updated soon so keep your eyes open you can always leave a comment on the market?
You can add me to the list . I thought it might have been something I uninstalled, but doubt it.
Contact the developer of the app.
I got the same problem , only a few pictures works ...
It seems to work well with Chompsms, but i dont want those damn "iphone" bubbles
I'm having the same issue but I am doubting that it is due to Handcent.

I have my contact sync'd from Google and Facebook for HTC Sense on my HTC Incredible. Any SMS or MMS message I receive will show the contact image except the 10 or so contacts that I have in my Google Talk list. I have tried "un-linking" them but it didn't correct the problem. The same thing is happening in the original Messages application so that is why I am questioning the cause being associated with Handcent.
Any other thoughts about this?
I'm having the same issue. I recall I fixed this once by going into the contacts application and clearing the data. Everything synced up again.
OR perhaps I just uninstalled Facebook for HTC Sense and reinstalled it..I can't remember. Damn.
Yep..uninstalled FB from syncing, and reinstalled..takes a while..but they are all back in hancent.
The facebook pictures for my contacts used to show up on the stock messaging app, but after restoring a nandroid it doesn't anymore. This is also the case with other messaging apps, so I don't think it's related to the app.
Is there any way I can make messaging apps show contact pictures again? (the contact pictures are still there btw - checked the dialer)
Have you checked if your FB account is still linked and set to sync? If yes, try removing & re-adding it. If all else fails, try linking contacts manually.
I'm not sure about the stock app, but is there a part in the menu that you need to tick to show contact pics?
You could also check your accounts and make sure that the facebook sync is turned on etc. I'm just throwing ideas out by the way, I'm not really sure lol.

Ah, I didn't try the obvious one. The account was still linked and was set to sync, but I deleted and re-added my facebook account and now it's working.
Thanks for the help guys . I should have tried this before posting a new thread here, my bad!

Glad we could help!

I thought this was going to be a more serious problem but all I had to do was re add my facebook account thanks for the help!
thank you so much. I was searching for a while, but turns out to be a simple fix.
i had the same problem and i have managed to fix it by this way, thanks.
however i have another similar issue which i couldn't fix until now. even if sender's facebook or profile picture seems, my own picture doesn't seem at the conversation.
is there anyone who managed to overcome this problem??
I'm having this "odd" problem too.. however I do have facebook sync-ed (similar to leventmann i guess)
The problem appears to be that the messaging app thinks the contact comes from the SIM (thus lack of profile pics).
Short of deleting the contact form SIM, i've managed to 'trick' the phone into using the facebook/google contact by fiddling around with area codes.
However, whenever I have the contact pic, I then get this "ugly" extra (M <mobile numb>) appended to the name:
ie.
John Doe (M 1234567890): blah blah blah
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Which I guess is 'ok', but it just takes up so much space in the message itself (even more so with the new Sense 3.0 messages having an iPhone-like look with messages being left/right speech bubbles)
At first I thought it was because the contact had 2 mobiles associated with the account, so removed (unlinked) one of the mobiles, but problem still exists.
Any ideas on how to keep the contact pic but remove (M xxxxx) ?
Also, is there a way to get the original htc messaging style back? (Sort of like the one you see if you go to "Persons -> <contact> -> Messages"; a basic list of the messages where sender/recipient avatars are on the left...)
I've got a bunch of my contacts "linked" to their FB accounts, but for some reason their pics are all pixelated, I'm currently using RCMix's ROM.
When I was using SGBS ROM the pics weren't all pixelated.. anyone else have this problem?
I don't think it's specific to the ROMs mind you.
hmm, no dno't have problems with pixulated FB pics, when I do manage to get the to display they display fine.
Small update...I've noticed something that may be part of the cause of my problems... in the "People" application the SIM numbers/contacts are not shown (I chose to not view them). However, when I open 'Phone' (to dial someone) I see the SIM numbers/contacts!!!
I vaguely remember seeing this in another thread (shall go digging for it later) but wondering if anyone reading this thread knows how to fix it?
Thanks!

I have changed my ROM from Starburst Froyo to Cool VisionS and i can see my own profile picture now after creating a Google profile with picture.
However now i have this problem above. Pictures are pixelated and i am not sure if it is because of ROM. Another suspicious point is : Before i had "Facebook for HTC Sense" in the settings for syncronization but now in this ROM i have only "Facebook" to syncronize. Do you think it can be related to one of these reasons?
Yes, i found the solution for pixelation problem (at least for my situation)
When i tried to add account for syncronization (under settings - accounts&syncronization) i noticed that there is also "Facebook for HTC Sense" which requires another login process.
Use this account for syncronization and remove simply "Facebook".
It fixed pixelation problem
That did indeed fix the pixelated picture problem for me as well.
The pictures for my contacts in the messaging app are missing though, aside from the few that I have setup to use a picture on my SD card.
have you ever done "fix permissions" from CWM?
permissions's related problem.

I have exactly same problem. Any ideas how to fix this?
I've tried to save my own number to contacts and linked it to my own facebook, but the pic just wont show up? I'm using CM-3.7 rom.
I am experiencing the same issue under stock 2.3.3, from time to time (in a SMS thread, my contact's picture is shown as default). The only solution i've found for this is to open my contact's details and re-add my custom picture.
I can't even find my own contact profile from the phone? Is this someting to do with CM-3.7 ROM or am I just blind? In the stock ROM, it was first at the contactbook, but after I installed the ROM I haven't seen it anymore.
hello world i have a strange issue with go contacts ex app. since changed from 2.3.6 to 4.0.4 (it's not a ROM problem) and i create a new contact in go contact ex app, syncing with google account is no longer possible. i get an error "temporary no sync possible ..." but only on syncing contacts. calendar, emails, pictures and so on work fine.
so it's neccessary to delete contact-storage data and google account manager to fix this problem but after create a new contact this error come back. i found out only with stock app is it possible to create a new contact and sync with google account without problems. modify or delete a contact in go contacts ex app is always possible without a sync error.
have anyone else this problem and if so what is the solution? is there a solution? to fix this behavior temporary i create a new contact in stock app.
i feel so lonely no one else with the same rumble in the jungle?
go contacts
I updated my sensation to 4.0 and how go contacts will not display Facebook contacts and it will only show pictures of contacts stored on phone.
I have exactly the same problem: but it's not clear for me how do you manage to solve it (partially)?
Im having the same problem, but for me I even if i clear contact storage i cannot sync... this is really annoying. Im on SGS3 LTE stock rom with root and cwm recovery

i have the same problem , could it have anything to do with the fact that FB changed everybody's email address to a @facebook.com ?
I had same problem after putting ICS 8.3 , but i used .vcf on my sd card. I just copied contact.apk back on system/app and install it again. And now i have all my contacts back and running
I have the EXACT same problem with the EXACT same workaround on a stock Galaxy S3.
I've tried populating/not populating various contact fields with no luck thinking that it might be some type of corrupt data issue. Anyone know if this is a confirmed problem with Go Contacts Ex?

I too had this problem on a Galaxy S3. Every time I added or removed a contact in Go Contacts it broke the Google contact sync. I replaced Go Contacts with ContApps and the problem went away.

Just use Friendcaster and problem is solved...
Just found this thread via Google. I'm running CyanogenMod 9 on a Samsung Rugby Smart, but I think I found a work-around. I removed the default setting I had applied to Go Contacts, went into the regular contacts, and then went into Sync and manually synced my contacts. I think it worked, but verification would be great.
I have the exact same problem and my solution was to just stop using Go Contacts EX. I tried deleting my google account and readding it, only to find my newest contacts gone. I got tired of trying to figure out why it didn't work and decided I could go without Go Contacts EX. Not the best solution, but at least my contacts sync between my phone and google now.

I'm not sure is it spam or not - please let me know. I've created ad-supported free app that fixes what GO Contacts breaks. It's available in google play: Contacts Sync Fix.
Great App

Thanks Nixolay, your app works great! It scanned my contacts and found 2 issues. What exactly is the issue go contacts is making?
Same here
I have just realised today, after about 3 weeks, and after some testing, that Go Contacts Ex breaks my contact syncing for my Google account. Once broken the only way I found to fix it is to uninstall it, remove and then re-add my Gmail account. I like the product but backing up my contacts is more important.

Try the "Contact Sync Fix" app
You also have an option to automatically check contacts error when phone is powdered ON

This is an issue well known from go team as it has been reported many time.
I don't understand why they don't fix it.
Many users stop using this nice app just because of this issue
