[Q] Facebook gallery sync,.

How do i delete the photos that were synced from my facebook? i try to select them but the only option i get is slideshow

Delete the Facebook app and reinstall it. When you load it for the first time there will be an option to sync albums, just uncheck it and you are good to go. I had the same problem and figured it out about 10 minutes ago.

might be able to simply "clear data" instead of uninstalling.

Clear data didn't work for me.

You can go into setting then accounts. And on your facebook account you have the options to sync contacts and sync pictures just uncheck picks

Open gallery, press menu, view by and select the one you want.

Did that. But every time I go back into gallery it defaults to showing them again.

If you log in on your computer you can see all your g+ albums and photos from posts. You can manually delete them there. That's the only solution I can find

Disable picasa and google photos under google sync. Then clear data for the gallery app.

Can't find the picasa and google photos under sync..

Settings -> Accounts -> Google -> *****@gmail.com -> Uncheck what you do not wish to sync.

That doesn't get rid of the ones in your gallery
Edit: un checking sync and clearing gallery data worked. Thank you.

Anyway to get rid of facebook from gallery? I unchecked "sync gallery" under accounts and cleared gallery data but facebook keeps loading in gallery. Any ideas?

App manager then gallery then clear data removes picasa and Google pictures. Make sure you un click photos in Google sync

Combining Facebook contacts AOKP

Hi,
Is there any way to link Facebook accounts with previous contacts in my phone? I could do this with stock roms but with AOKP there doesn't seem to be an option. For example I have nicknames saved in my phone for contacts and I'd like to link their Facebook photo to their number.
If not with the default contacts app for AOKP, then is there another contact app you'd recommend that has this feature available? I've used Facebook contact sync but it doesn't link with names that don't exactly match. Thanks in advance!

There is an app called Facebook Contact Sync that will link the photos to your contacts.

You can also buy haxsync which will also sync your Facebook calender.

I've already tried this but it doesn't allow me to take one contact and merge it with another

All I did was go to Picasa and delete the pics I didn't want to keep.

Thats what i did but they was still in my gallery

Actually once you delete them in Picasa they are deleted, at that point you would have resync the device so that it syncs with the app and updates that you deleted the pictures. Then they would dissappear from your gallery.
The reason you could not delete them from the gallery is that those pictures are not actually on your device but on the cloud. They are merely represented in the gallery because you synced it. Once you delete them from Picasa they would have deleted automatically from your gallery once synced.
Have a great day!
