Hi, after i got my new HTC One X (The old one had Display problem)
I can't find Facebook for HTC in Accounts & Synchronisation?!
Only the normal Facebook.
Setting the preferences back and Delete all accounts doesn't work.
How to get it back?
So completely stock and a hard reset done.
Firmware is 1.28??
to be honest no idea at the moment
In the friendsstream app....., is it there??
no worries about that.
since ICS, htc integrate (linked) their facebook for htc with original facebook app (katana).
just sign in and it will showing up on friendstream widget or app.
Pictures of some of my FB contacts don't show on People. Anything wrong I'm doing?

yes, but then when uploading a photo through gallery "share" with Facebook for HTC Sense the upload fails at 100% (every time).
on a probably unrelated note, installation of LinkedIn for HTC Sense from HTC Hub fails too

Most probably the contact is not completely sync the picture yet. It happens to mine too, after awhile the picture will appeared, no worry
Actually every since Sense 3.5, the Facebook For HTCSense is no where to be seen in the Account. Everything is done via official FB, but you still hv the function of uploading a picture via FB for HTCSense, and it works for me everything. Benefit of this is it allows you to tag ppl in picture but the official FB lack of this function
Kudos to HTC Sense

Same for me! I had to re-link some of my contacts manually...
It took at least 30mins.
Login and Passwords
In response to enyaj, may not help the OP.
Wow I have been having the same problem for some time now (FB for HTC Sense not linking up profile pics with contacts), and my wifes phone would always error on photo uploads) figured out that I changed the FB password awhile back to prevent a possible hacking video issue. If you change your password on FB and use FB for HTC Sense, you must go into: Menu> Settings> Acctounts & Sync. Then delete your FB for HTC Sense account. Then just add account (bottom of screen) FB for HTC Sense and login with the correct email and password. Bam all my contacts pictures sync'd with their FB profile pics, status updates and such are working also. Hope this helps.
I got the same issue .. and after googleing .. I found out that I have to unistall Facebook update ..delete my FB account from Account$Syncing in the settings .. and make a restart,, then add My FB again in Account&Syncing ..

How do i update contacts that are linked to facebooks profiles pictures in the desire?
some people have updated their profile pictures in facebook but i cant get my desire to recognise the new profle pictures.
I would like see if is possible that when you browse phone book that you see facebook images on contact is this possible? I see images only on contacts which do not have phone contact added...

dont they update automatically when you sync with facebook?
thats what i thought but i couple of my phonebook entries that are linked to facebook contacts still have old profile pics, i was wondering whether there was a way to manually refresh the pictures.
You have to sign out of facebook for htc sense and sign back in.

Im try logout and login but do not help.
Im do next and work:
1.)Go to contact and view it.
2.)Go to "photos" tab.
3.)Click "Link Facebook profile" and select contact from facebook friends
4.)It will sync and update photos wit facebook photos.
I hope that this is good way to do this
Unlink and relink should also work.
Also if you in contact see Link 1 or something like this and not linked then this is reason you can also click on this link 1 and select facebook profile and it will link this contact together...

It doesn't work for me..My friends updated their profile pictures but the contact pics still show the old ones...I tried log out and log in fb again but still not working.
Sorry I should have explained better. Go to settings and then accounts and sync and then go to facebook and select to remove the account and then sign back in. it should update all your contact photos.

The ONLY thing I dont like about rooting is
I dont get the Stock HTC Facebook app that you can sync your contacts with their facebook pictures.
All the other Fbook apps on the market suck. Can anyone port it, make an app similar to that one, or anything?
I know you like 2.3... but if you are willing to use Froyo migueltherocker's GratiousSlide has the same facebook syncing with contacts.. and I was happy with it till my A.D.D lead me to the next 5 ROMs

Lol actually I opened the market and found an app that I can sync my contacts to pictures on fbook, just sort of like the stock contacts app.
The app is a replacement for your contacts but w/e. Ill just use that to sync all my contacts, and assign as main contact app the one with cyanogen
TA-DA!
I wouldn't mind checking that out, what is the program called?
It seems like it's been so long since I had stock. What am I missing here? The official Facebook app syncs its contacts with my own on the phone and imports pictures. The only thing I don't see is the link/unlink that sense has.

The stock Sense overlay, if I remember, by default synced all contacts photos linked to a FB account with their FB profile pic, and even gave you the option of which photo to sync with (FB/Google/manually set).
With vanilla, the FB app will sync contacts, but I am noticing that your Google account image will be the default image, and I do not see a way to make it switch to the FB picture.
You guys should download
"Contapp"
its really good, does the same thing as the original froyo app... its a contact replacement.. just dont set it as default and your done
Wohoo!
Now, is there anyway to make the caller ID pictures bigger?
Hey Guys,
if I conect my contacts with HTC Friendstream (Facebook) ,
in note get something like that:
<HTCData><Facebook>id:100000849848114/friendof:100000101543752</Facebook></HTCData>
When I tried to delate it,it get back to notes after a few seconds.
Any Idea how to delate that ?
Thanks

Hi! I think it should not be deleted, because Facebook for HTC Sense uses it to link Facebook contacts with contacts from other sources.
If you don't want it, then don't use Facebook for HTC Sense, meaning disable your Facebook for HTC Sense account in Accounts and Sync, so that it doesn't get re-added.
Yeah, but it was for 3 days the first time there.
before there wasn't it and it also worked with Facebook :O
There is a difference between the connection of contacts with Facebook for HTC sense and the normal Facebook app. I think that the normal Facebook app does not use the note field.

Currently when i select a contact in the "People" App, it says they are synced with:
Phone
Phone
Facebook
Facebook For HTC Sense
Firstly, is there anyway to delete the other "Phone" link without having to manually unlinking them?
Secondly, do i need my contacts sync all my contacts with both Facebook & Facebook for HTC Sense to get their facebook display pictures to show up and for facebook widgets to work?
& finally, is there anyway to get all my contacts to sync with google without having to re-add them all to my phone.

You can try contact analyzer which can be found in market. To find duplicate contacts.
For LAST question, you can export all your contact from your people and import them to GOogle, or you can setting up active sync.

I would suggest keeping the facebook for HTC sense sync , I tried not having that and contact pics were all blurry...makes alot of difference when you're getting a call etc.

Nope , you can keep htc sense synced and let normal facebook stay disabled thats what I do now keeps the amount of linked contacts to a minimum.

Hey everyone.
I have install facebook for android few months ago. After that i notice that my People's contact pic does not sync with facebook pic anymore. is there anyway to sync back the pic on update?
I did try edit the contact, select the pic and select facebook for htc sense.
That doesn't works.
Under watchdog app, i still see Facebook for HTC Sense but i can't launch the app.
go to
settings---accounts and sync----sync htc sense facebook....
or switch on auto update.......
hi
That didn't work.
as i mention, i accidentally install "facebook for android"
so currently it mess up with the htc sense facebook.
all profile pic for "people" will not update.
Is there anyway to install back the old "Facebook for htc sense"?
i have facebook for android but i also have htc facebook...........
installing facebook for android willnot affect the htc sense facebook....
apparently i found the solution
remove account in the sync and add back.
The HTC syncing with Facebook and Sense Facebook is not the best system, but neither are any of the others, generally if you are having issues with profile photos, an application I would recommend on the top of my head is called SyncPic which is very good and automatically downloads the profile photos of Facebook only, not with other networking websites...but give a crack if you are still having issues...
